I neither said created nor intelligently designed... but seriously, the way he and his bike hardly move in the rough bits is astonishing.He appreciates your prayers.

and will Gwin get to the all-time wins record? This will be an interesting long-term battle between Minnaar and Gwin.Is it OK to hate the French again?
second by 0.5 with a fucked thumb?... Er.. .I think somehow, fully injury free he just might.and will Gwin get to the all-time wins record? This will be an interesting long-term battle between Minnaar and Gwin.
Minnaar is still racing when he returns from injury, right?second by 0.5 with a fucked thumb?... Er.. .I think somehow, fully injury free he just might.
I'm thinking this might be the actual reason the Commencal guys are so fast this season: they want to get out of their turd suits as fast as possible.
One (*lucky?) World Champs run? then back to her usual performances? Sorry. I don't pay massive attention to the wiminz is there something I'm missing?Miranda Miller - what's the deal?
Huh??Minnaar is still racing when he returns from injury, right?
Gwin races to fill a void and to celebrate the love of Jeebus. One could call it perspective, but he'd be jsut as happy to be the best at shuffleboard, I think. Minnaar is a rider's rider and I think he'll race as long as he needs to in order to preserve that all-time wins record.
Gwin appears to be trying to prove something to himself each weekend. Minnaar's a mountain biker to the core. I know who I like better.
WTF are you talking about? You've seen Gwin ride BMX and Moto aye?but he'd be jsut as happy to be the best at shuffleboard, I think. Minnaar is a rider's rider and I think he'll race as long as he needs to in order to preserve that all-time wins record.
This is genius commentary and absolutely addresses what I wrote. For sure.Huh??
Nobody would do this if they weren't totally committed and passionate about it. Every one of those racers ARE trying to prove something each weekend, that they're faster than anybody else that day. You know ... racing.
Which stance do you believe you've seen me take?I believe I've even seen you take a stance as well here.

The only time I've ever seen somebody do so much projecting is when they start talking about their pets and pretend they're human. Maybe take a step back on making claims about what Gwin values and what's important to him if you'd like to avoid looking like a crazy cat lady.I think it's a bit different. Gwin got the sads when the moto thing didn't pan out, then went from digging ditches to racing downhill. To a guy with that background I'm sure the downhill wins will always seem lower caliber than a moto career.
But, you know, it's an opinion. I believe I've even seen you take a stance as well here.
Yeah bro! You told me. See above: I'm heading to the Cat Fancy boards now.The only time I've ever seen somebody do so much projecting is when they start talking about their pets and pretend they're human. Maybe take a step back on making claims about what Gwin values and what's important to him if you'd like to avoid looking like a crazy cat lady.
I would have agreed a few years ago that Gwin is not a "mtb biker" in his heart as many others are and that he is more plain and simple a racer that wants to be the best. But for me it seems he has slowly been changing towards a "true" mtb biker. I think the true test is when he beats the number of WC wins and if stille keeps his pace and hunger to go fast.Aaron Gwin is a splendiferous bike racer and a gift to us all. His beliefs aren't weird at all and he's consistently likable and a great ambassador for the sport and, in turn, humanity.
With a crash too according to PBAlso, the junior Vali Holl would have placed 7th in elite women. Pinner!
He only tried his hand at dh because he couldn't make a living racing moto, largely in part due to injuries.Dudes a mountain biker, end of
So? He's been riding 10,000 hours of mountain bikes a year basically and living, breathing, and eating mountain bikes for the past 10 years. Not to mention he'd never ridden downhill before, stopped moto because of injuries not speed, and was immediately hooked when he started DH. I donno, this conversation seems pretty stupid and crazy and I can't tell who's fucking with me and who genuinely believes something so crazy. Either way, I'm gonna bow out of this conversation because I don't really give a shit, if I spent all day trying to explain to people how wrong they were over the internet, I'd never get anything done.He only tried his hand at dh because he couldn't make a living racing moto.
Do you know which flavor he likes best?eating mountain bikes
I'm 99% sure Ratboy only tried DH because he was born too late to be the frontman for a hair metal meets reggae band but that doesn't make him any less of a MTBer.He only tried his hand at dh because he couldn't make a living racing moto, largely in part due to injuries.
