Jesus, dude, put on some pants on these shorts. Your junk is in central focus of camera. Or talk to your camera man, cause he has a thing for your crotch.

Last weekend at an XC race, part of the DH course was used... LUCKILY, I rode a dual crown down the said trail for two weeks before the race. It was because of that, I won the expert class with my descending skills and knowledge of the course. From one end of the spectrum (DH) to the other (XC).

The same as a downhill bike, just slower? Did I guess right?

Being 50 and needing a hip replacement I find it impossible to actually get behind my seat on my xc my trail bike has a dropper but is a bush pig to pedal big k’s
