- Thread starter Transcend
- Start date
Beneke ripping in '96 at the World Cup at Big Bear....check out his legs...and the prototype 4" Manitou..lol
Good to see him back racing.
Indeed. He was actually quite upset that he didn't make the top 10 in MSA, quite ambitious for the old man! It's kind of sad that now that he has to pay for his own bikes he's on a decent rig for the first time in his carreer.

Yeah, someone should hook him up with some good gear and support just out of respect for who he is and what did has done in the sport....he's was always a super nice dude, never had the ego of some of the other Pro's. Is he still married to Stacy Miller (I think that was her name)? I remember she was at that race too and I was going up the lift with her when Benny went under us and she was yelling "Go Teddy Bear!" and then we all made fun of him HAHAHAHA.
He received the blue v10 from doing a car commercial apparently. Santa Cruz hooked him up with the new white one prior to Ste Anne.
So he is on a white V10 - saw Mr. Old World Plaster doing practice runs at Diablo two weekends ago on the white one.
mr. Old World Plaster had a sweet custom OWP skin suit on for the finals. all he needed to do was take off his visor and it would have looked like a Beneke race run from 10 years ago.
Alex Morgan.
29! Yeah baby.
the wheels make the brake rotors look extra small.
I think BCD runs 7" rotors as well
I'll take the crashing into trees one.73rd . . . North America did a good job flatting, bumping into trees, and bringing up the rear
broken chain at the top=seperated shoulder due to tree crashing=dirtnap in the final tree section. My quali run was harsh forsure.
So stoked on this race though, it was truely a great experiance!
I missed quali by a couple of slots, even if I would have made it though...my shoulder whould not have let me race
It was good to see all the americans out there, I think there were 16 entered and 9 made the final.73rd . . . North America did a good job flatting, bumping into trees, and bringing up the rear
I ended up 75th with 2 crashes, but still a good experience. WC's are amazing. My split was a 2:22 which would have placed me top 45 if I continued at the same pace, so good times.... Can't wait for the next
if the quebec official saw this picture they would be very upset... there is skin showing on his thigh which in quebec is illegal apparently
what he needs is some super custom E13 sticker pads, hahaha... silly rules require silly solutions

Alex Morgan.
you must be able to see over their boobs to talk to most of them....
No way, I don't get caught looking down like all you goons. Just the right height thank you very much, mr. 1980 bar turn.
I just saw the pics of the E13 shinguard in the other thread. Is this for reals? Full leg protection is a UCI-mandate? So that's why so many racers are wearing moto pants at UCI races?
not a uci thing... this is a quebec federation rule
the uci had to enforce it at st anne, but they were pretty laid back obout it (the uci official i spoke to thought it was rediculous)
they said "you have to cover the skin on your arms, and front of your legs"... so yeah, i grabbed a bunch of stickers and that made them happy, haha
hahaha thats funny...
on another note...what fork is that on the BCD?? is it a maverick? how does it hold up for dh?
its inverted white brothers fork
Thems ain't normal legs, they is chicken legs (really really white ones)
i get home from the drive and there's another 20 pages to this thread... crazy.
news update: some people ate some food!!!

but was it POUTINE?!!
maybe this has been asked already, but what is the deal with all the practice photos of guys running old school Boxxers?
To celebrate the 10th year of the boxxer, Rock Shox through those on all their pro riders bikes on Friday morning. There was a lot of photographer double takes.
did they just change up the lowers and the crowns?? cus giving racers a brand new fork probably would have been annoying for them if they had to break them in just before a race...
just wondering...i thought they looked pretty gnarly
no kidding, its been 6 years since a girl beat me, missy @ VT.
props to the them. granded i coasted down 1/2 of the track after my chain threw, sucked not pedaling to the finish.
working on some pics now for litter.
what else could it have been!
oh ps- breaking news: a gust of wind just moved some tree branches i can see out of a window.
don't worry, it was just sam hill's wind trying to still catch up to him....
Ow dude. Sux...heal up quick.I'll take the crashing into trees one.
