The World Cup of Crap

Ridiculous happenings at the MTB World Cup in Spain. People cutting the course, going under the tape....WTF? In front of (and through) spectators and everything. Come on now. Not just one or two but droves. This is supposed to be the pinnacle of our sport? Where's the almighty governing body, and why aren't they doing anything about it? Even more frightening is that the venue is on the short list for the 2012 Olympics. Cycling News report here.

T.Wells and JB have their own accounts posted already. Jeremiah actually grabbed a course cutting rider by the collar and pulled him back in. HAH - I wish I was spectating....sounds like they needed a few self-appointed course marshals. JH-K finished first among the Americans.

What kind of freaky light fork is Specialized running on their World Cup Epics?

This doper is back already? Seems like only yesterday.

Mr. 24 (aka Mr. 12) Kicked some arse over in Wisconsin. Report here.

Anxious awaiting all the stories from the Koko.

Hope everyone had a nice Mother's Day. I know my friend, riding buddy, social coordinator, and all around motivator BJ did. Nice article about her in the Sunday paper! WTG. She pretty much eliminated the old "age excuse" from my vocabulary. BJ seen at right discussing who knows what w/Art the Dart.


RideOn

Comments:
read about that course cutting. sickening. Apparently there was some cheating at the Kokopelli too.

I think that Specialized is a Pace cabon fiber. The ridgid is available here in the states, via bikeman.com of course ;) but not sure the suspension fork is.

Carbon fiber fork = scary

Later
