All Things Bikes and Tacos! (...and every vehicle imaginable)

I don’t watch a lot of racing, but it’s usually men’s and women’s DH, and women’s XC. Those races are usually tightest and most fun to watch.
Never watched enduro, or slopestyle.

 

but if you start a mtb youtube channel...then you can say with certainty, "nobody wants to watch me ride"...

 

It's not sad at all, such as pro basketball players. If the women wanted to make more they should try out for the NBA, not the WNBA.

Here's a video for you guys

 

I want to watch you ride...

but you too fast for me to keep up...

I thoroughly enjoyed watching @backcountryj do some form of a front manual stoppy thing in knoxville lol

 

Yeah, I watch Enduro and XC. Ladies XC is super close racing. Mens XC is typically a parade of men wearing spandex.

Enduro is inspiring and demoralizing at the same time. Those riders are so talented.

 

Think I saw a headline that Discovery is going to start covering EWS races?

 

think I should get a drone camera to follow me when I ride..

"Average Joe Riding"

I think it would really inspire people and show them "damn, at least I'm not as bad as that guy"

 

Yeah. I thinkn they're covering the EWS races. Should be interesting to see how it plays out.

 

I love Dave Chappelle. Best description I've heard is, "he's a philosopher who tells joke. damn good jokes".

 

Coulda made a Sunday Saves highlight reel

 

Interesting graphs that confirm my suspicions. XC and Slopestyle are where the money's at. Shocking, considering the biggest names in biking these days are Nino, Kate Courtney, Emily Batty, and Semenuk.

And I have the Youtube stats to prove it!

 

I don't have a recommendation for but spray, but have you tried eewings cranks? Only $1000

 

sheeit what a good recommendation!

 

Ever since my crash I’ve felt like it was slightly off. I really can’t believe there’s no tool for this.

 

There is a tool for it. It's expensive but it's a really smart idea. I met the inventors at a trailhead in Pisgah last year and they dialed my bike in. I'll find a link, they are out of SC.

When I met them they had not yet launched, I asked them what their price point was and they told me and also said they basically intended it as a bike shop only tool. Even a Yeti rider isn't buying a tool like that.

 

I HATE THAT!

Those tools have def caught my eye, but they solve such a minor problem for the money. I could def make one out of PVC for like $10 though.

 

Well that's their fault for not painting it turquoise and slapping a CO flag sticker on it.

 

The lobuk way to do this is to remove the front wheel and put the forks against a wall, and then rotate the bike up so the handlebars and forks are both against the wall.
