It's weird that beautiful women spend their hard earned money on being gorgeous hillside to spectate proudly & videographers just leave them out of the footage these days. I can't imagine spend time, money & fashionable get ups to go out to be appreciated and all these dudes with cameras...just filming men in spandex onesies all day.
I sometimes wonder what makes you get up in the morning and say „I’m going to be the personification of the cliche creepy shitstain on humanity today“ but then again I probably don’t want to know
Vid was dope! It bummed me out to hear (again) how things with SC/Syndicate & Greg fizzled out poorly at the end. It was sad to see the end of a Syndicate era that we all came to know and love for so many years.
I wish they had interviewed individuals from the team who had fingers pointed at them as the cause of last year's issues. To hear both sides of the story. I find it hard to believe that someone as decorated and particular as Greg wasn't listened to and supported to the team's fullest abilities. I get the feeling it was more a situation of the team trying to do everything they could for Greg, and when the rabbit hole he took them down didn't produce a favorable outcome, or the team refused to go down a rabbit hole because they felt it wasn't beneficial to his/the team's program, what remained was frustration and disagreement (on both sides).
The clip of Greg saying the rear end feels like it has play with a worried look on his face, and his mechanic just looking at the bike with that look of "mate, nothing is loose" feels like an accurate depiction of last year's season haha Greg thinks the bike has play, the team does everything they can to assure the bike is fine, Greg still remains unsure/feels unheard.

I would like to hear the other side of the story, I doubt the syndicate or santa cruz was trying to sabotage Greg and the truth is likely more complex than he made it look.
I still think Santa Cruz was expecting Greg to retire after 23 (which he admits was true) so they didn't budget for him to be on the team in 24. When he changed his mind and wanted to race the 24 season, the budget was already spent elsewhere (Jackson's 6 year contract?).

Can we talk about how rad the sleeper collective video edits from the uci dh race weekends are? The last one from leogang really shows the feel/fun of the event and really makes me want to grab my bike and go out for a ride.

Because I point out that we are so hyper sensitive butt hurt any more that women aren't even allowed to be in the edits any more.
The racers can dress up in skin suits and take pics from behind, but the videographers are afraid to even cut to a beautiful woman track side enjoying the show for fear of shaming. Every edit is racers and the crowd shots are the bros.
We're not little children in here, so I'm not dancing around the subject. Pretty women can't be in your edit anymore so that you don't catch smoke from the haters.

U may b scraping the wire a lil too much bud. Lay off it a bit eh
Man I was ready for some VDS race talk and instead I'm greeted with Vital's most notorious gangster starting a conspiracy theory where he's really super bummed that DH MTBing isn't like Supercross where we have Monster girls in every shot at all times lol
So super duper weird when a race video is about racing and a male dominated sport has videos full of a 'buncha dudes' ugh so lame where are the eye candy bimbos to make the vid better... -_-
TFW i click over to the thread and the first response is the same dude seemingly having a strong opinion about reporting whether or not a racer gal is preggo or not lol. yikes man cmon. RACING mate RACING BICYCLES thats all that matters.
apparently its pissing rain. is it scheduled to keep raining? gonna be a nightmare if so lol
Jesus the cursed Norco team. Feel so bad, especially after watching Greg's documentary. Straight up just sucks. What can you even do or say.
Also yeah that's weird Trisq. Luke's account seems fine. Giant's account is fine. TMK he is there and practicing. Not sure. Hope he didn't get hacked or something.
The Minaar doco was quite good, he was rather scathing of the team for the Fort Bill worlds disaster, really threw them under the bus.
Would have been good to get some insight from some of his competitors, I know Hill isn't a fan of him at all but they battled it out for best part of a decade, hear from Nathan Rennie too.
The fit with Norco is great for him, I hate the pun, but that team is "like F1" quantifying data and setups, which seems in the big fella's wheelhouse. I wish him all the best.
Good to see a more varied track compared to the previous 3. Much more slow speed tech. This round's track and condition are going to throw my fantasy picks way off but I'm too lazy to make changes now.

Plenty of sharper turns definitely gives an opportunity for times to separate more than 1/100th of a second.
bitta irony. jackson and jordan just cant get away from each others storylines after the epic juniors battles they had.
this track is just an injury machine. can't even hate it tho. if you wanna prove you're the most technically talented bicycle rider in the world this is it man. this is the one.

So bummed Reece isn't racing this weekend, he'd be killing it on this track!
Anybody know where a guy could find the World Cup standings after VDS? Curious where Amaury is at now that he took a win. He's already been on the podium a couple times I think, so I wonder if he's actually in touch for the overall. I'm sure Loic is still way in the lead with two wins, a second, and a fifth.
Every year there is at least one rider that I really want to get a Win. Last year it was BK who I am still hoping he gets one but this year I am rooting hard for Dak to get that #1. This might make a good poll and then we could know if we can collectively WILL riders onto the top step!
Would have loved a Jess win, and not just because it would have been a heater for my fantasy. Sadly it sounds like seasons done. Not sure extent of injury.
Maples hit that extra gear which would of course be a great result. And gotta give credit to what Lachy is doing. Not sure what happened to his VDS? Just off the pace or mechanical/crash?

Also here for Dak, can't wait until he puts it all together for the win!
As a refresher of how far he's come, here's baby Dak from 2018

i think she said 4 weeks. that still gives over a month of rehab before worlds and the last 2 rounds.
Well who did you think gave Greg his anti-aging medication?
