    This is what's wrong with The Industry™

    I still have a mesh like vest from Specialized, that I love. I don't think they make it anymore. It has the pockets in the back. Perfect for both DH/XC/Endurbro. If all you need is one or two bottles. More than that, I go big - ish back pack. I can't do hip pack. Feels too weird. You can also...

    Fort William 2024 Race

    Anyways, my point is MTB is a super boutique sport. I think we can all agree on that. And the new broadcasters are trying to treat it like it is main stream sports. AKA Golf. F1, nascar, AMA, Football, soccer, rugby, you name it. There's a boiler plate they are going to implement. It's not...

    Fort William 2024 Race

    Agreed. I read somewhere that the Masters rakes in like $1M per hour. Actually I think it's more. But I'm rounding down.

    Fort William 2024 Race

    Fair play. And no. I don't do the socials, the tuber's it's all just bs. Been there. I have more things to do in my life. Who has time for that? Except for RM. I will make time for that. :D I don't think you're getting it. Maybe I need to find a clip of what I'm talking about. But seriously...

    Fort William 2024 Race

    Yeah, I get that. Point taken. I've been watching these things for a looooong time. Let me add a bit more to my suggestion. I care about fast bikes and fast riders. And just love bikes. And mountains, and dirt and stuff and things all mtb. If someone is clearly in the red. Why not talk to...

    Fort William 2024 Race

    What do you think of the broadcast quality? I didn't have any issues, other than finding the bloody thing. After that it was pretty smooth sailing. Gwin and Warner would be my pick. It's not like Ric and the Aussie Enduro guy that used to ride for Giant are bad (can't remember his name at the...

    Fort William 2024 Race

    Yeah, they are tight. But it is racing. My dad bod would def not be sporting any of those. There is a thing for wind resistance/aerodynamics tho. But hell. If you just won by 4 seconds. Who da fuk cares what you're wearing? Or is that part of the 4 second win equation?

    Fort William 2024 Race

    I am inspired to ride today like <insert riders name> so thanks for that. Pink panther suits. Blah. Gwin in the booth? I like it. But still miss Warner. Coming from the AMA Supercross in Denver. It's interesting to note the differences. Just sayin

    Fort William 2024 Race

    Fort William 2024 Race

    Yeah, I didn't even see that. TBH, I didn't even see the top tier menu of theirs until now. (way to nail the UI/UX MAXXXXX :rolleyes:). Guess I'll be watching. Juniors are like around 4.25am my time. Breakfast burrito margaritas it is then.

    Cleat placement

    Arch over axel would feel weird to me, but I'm a total clipless nerd. (I will do that on my clipless only if I'm on an elevated skinny bridge or something sooper sketch) It works, but only for that techy section. I'm a size 12US. I just had to check, I put my cleats in the middle of a shimano...

    2024 racing thread

    Is there a race this weekend? I can't tell. Also, between the Nuggets (basketball), Avalanche (hockey) (both in playoffs) and Moto, The wife is getting a little mad at all my sports watching. But I am needing some dh/mtb racing...like soon. Or else I may have to go ride my own bike :D

    Well said. And yeah, if you can't see behind the jackassery, then you're the jackass. I may have just crossed the line there. But this is RM. :) Bike content: I'm teaching the local kids how to corner. It's called mountain bike mondays :)

    Pretty sure there was a book, then there was a movie. But Yeah. I don't do big boats, cruises. No effing way. Now even planes. Thanks Boeing for screwing that pooch. You had one job to do!

    This is what's wrong with The Industry™

    Agreed. It will eventually find a happy medium. But still. It sucks. I'm not really a fan. If you ask me, It's tech for the sake of tech. And I'm in tech. Someone will get rich off of it. But at what cost? Even then, is it really moving a needle in a productive way? Prove it. Be sure to define...

    I'm pretty sure that's any industry. Just wait until "AI" backfires on everyone/everything. It's only a matter of time. You heard it here first.
