    Tom Pidcock

    Pidcock is a big question mark this weekend. He's been training on the road bike, but how will his collarbone handle the bone-rattling mountain bike terrain? We know that he's full steam ahead for Tokyo, and it'll be a good show.

    (that's from the BikePerfect site (whatever that is), but I saw the same article somewhere else...maybe Bike Rumor. I was surprised as I just figured they'd play it safe...what's the point of racing at Les Gets???)
    It makes perfect sense...until you think about it.

    I suspect there's logic behind the madness, but I'm too dumb to see it.

    Update:

    Given his bike handling, maybe Nino has a shot. Also, I worry about Tom’s collarbone...maybe he should sit this one out?

    No race this week, but bump b/c: doesn't everyone like bikes as much as me? Some people it's guitars...some people it's guns...some old ladies, it's cats....for me: it's bicycles:

    Great paint Trek...but how about a matchy-match fork?

    I get geeked on bikes...hopefully, the Olympics deliver!

    Geez Louise...it's been so long that it took me 1/2hr to find this thread!

    It's been a long time...so long that I have no idea what to do. That's no news to me as, judging by the scores, I never did. But, for those of you with brains or luck, here's what's coming up:

    Video on Neff's IG account of her massively going OTB in that rock garden! Updated my team this morning, I came pretty close to actually winning a prize on PB a few rounds ago, crossing fingers as main prize is an AXS setup.

    Looked savage. Half of the PB comments about the course have to do with people who can't wait to see PFP die in that rock garden while Yolanda cruises by like she's on a green trail.

    Welp, my women's picks certainly didn't work out. I think I'll do better with the men, although I'm pretty sure everyone has basically the same picks.

    Well...mine are different b/c I had the times off and went to change and was locked out. Not like I was winning anyways!

    And it doesn't matter b/c: EVIE!!!!!

    Also: I hope Nino retires. I think it's clear he's lost a step (ironic considering most recent result) and there's a new breed coming up. It would be awesome to see someone go out as World Champ.

    Sorry everybody...I've been a bit out of it (and a bit lazy). Now's your last chance. Look closely to see if your peeps are actually in the U.S. (I cant' even find a start list). Wish I could have gone, but Red Bull will have to do.

    Go out swingin everyone:

    Thanks! A bit of a shake-up in that last race. Wasn’t sure how things would land.

    Thanks all!

    Kids were asleep when I watched the replay, really had to keep voice/excitement down. A bunch of my buddies watched it live, which must have been incredible to see in person.

    27 years is a long streak for a sport we invented!!

    Being in the village at Snowshoe for the finish was insane! Limited internet access but I'll try to post some pictures and a mini TR sometime soon.
