Have you seen xc eliminator?
Unfortunately yes.
Thanks for bringing up a memory I had finally repressed.
Why do you hate me so?
Chess champions probably get paid a lot better than mtb racers.
Jesus christ what is this thread, mountainbike racers don't get paid enough for keyboard warriors to psychoanalyse them on the basis of a two minute pink bike video.
To be fair he probably is nuts... a professional mountain bikes wants to win... put him in a straight jacket
Yeti have to choose now because they cannot afford both (they left WC DH because of cost)
guess is Yeti will pick rude, and drop graves.
hope graves continues to ride and write his diary with his new bike
cant imagine graves on a different bike, it's like CK and intense.

It's really weird how you go from speculation to conclusion in just two short statements. I wish I could convince myself of things that quickly. I tried that once with milling down some brake mounts.
I hope Graves doesn't retire.
In other news, the Coastal Crew parts ways with Kyle Norbraten.

considering graves started racing world cup dh in 2002 (and assuming he was racing for some time before that just to reach that level), he may be ready to move on.
I think he's referring to having to go out in public with these shoes.

I'd bet on Graves staying with Yeti for his whole career and Rude getting taken away by another team with deep pockets.
I wouldn't be surprised to see rude get snatched up by either a DH team or a broduro team with deeper pockets. Graves has been with yeti forever, I can't imagine him going far.
Rude got multpile years left for Yeti, according to reliable commentator on PB.
But yeah, i was hoping he'd be going somewhere with deeper pockets also.....

doesn't surprise me. richie has been very happy with yeti.
whoa, a unicorn.
Trumpmore said he signed long term.
He close to Yeti.
He close to Yeti.
I'd wager a bet that Rude's powermeter VO2 numbers are off the charts. That might be one of the reason Yeti steered him to Enduro....
from what i recall, yeti made the decision to focus on enduro over DH. they gave all their DH riders - graves, rude, and cam cole - the same offer. to switch to enduro or yeti would still fulfill the terms of their contracts (ie keep paying them) but would be free to go to another DH team. rude and graves both chose to stay.
For yeti to keep rude boy, a salary raise and cut from gravy's. Take it or leave it situation for gravy, even he is the poster boy for yeti. It happened to Rennie the original SC syndicate.
Fab Barel retires from enduro, to be a WC dh team manager/ coach for canyon bikes.
CRC: choosing between mike jones and Sam Hill?

Definitely on a german brand, it seems. Not sure if Canyon or Yt.
Maybe on Rotwild with Schley?
