    Two kinds of people… The people who don’t are the lucky/skilfull enough ones not to have smashed up their elbows after an off and the people that do are like me who have had an off and had smashed up elbows for a few weeks/month, I don’t give a hoot how uncool it looks or if someone thinks I’m a pussy.

    Yes that’s a clearer video,cheers mikewsmith
    Here’s a quote from the British Downhill Series Instagram .This could have been so much worse for Minnar /:

    ‘So Minnaars bike snapped because it hit a wooden post (with a sign on it). BC rules state all poles must be a minimum of 1.5m high (so you don’t land on them) and made of plastic so they break and not you.
    Good job it was his bike that snapped and not him.
    Wooden posts shouldn’t be allowed on a DH course, there’s enough trees to hit already let alone using solid posts to mark the track. @ucidownhillworld @uci_cycling @gregminnaar

    It looks bloody mint and their rear wheel/hub theory is the way forward.

    Torq powder,I sweat a lot even on winter rides but especially the summer.Water is fine but I got cramp after rides.High 5 too sweet and I think they’ve got a dodgy ingredient in(?) Torq got rid of the cramps tastes nice and doesn’t fur up the camelbak after a very quick rinse.

    Be wary of thin rims and wide tyres,can pop off on big hits at low to medium pressure.

    As Dez B said sometimes you get a tyre that just won’t seat,which sealant and rims are you using ?
    Is the sealant pretty fresh?

    Short’sh canal/boat trips are alright,if you see New Years traditional ollybollen cake ( normal cake) buy it and eat it, 9 streets is a good hang,vondelpark is a pleasant hang.
