Wayne is THE man!! #legendary

Got too much heat there. Causes can be many. Too lean mixture or an air leak if mixture etc has not changed lately. Exhaust port or inlet side can help diagnose. The vertical scores on a newish piston normally point to to tight a bore/piston combo but in this case the extra heat probably caused the tightness with expansion.

Me, I was a #34 fan all the way!!!

From what I follow on social media (yeah I know not a good way to form opinion) I believe the model parter/spouse of all the Motorsport people I follow are 1. Ellie Reed (Chad Reed) 2. Mathilda Musquin (Marvin Musquin) 3. Jill Cairoli (Antonio) Interesting they all MX related. They’ve all played major roles in their husbands success over the years.

You had me at Adriana...

Nope. Never buy them. Way too expensive for what they offer.

Done.. BTW I’ve checked again this morning and it has picked up the 20X 30sec intervals. So not sure if you had had a look already or if it was just a sync server queue type issue. Cheers.

Does not pick up any intervals in this ride?

Agree. Watching the fight my take is that Connor is just not “race” fit in the octagon. Sparring with your team that aren’t really allowed to hurt you is no substitute. He needs a few more fights to sharpen the tip of the sword.

Is it still a purchase when you make it yourself basically for free? [emoji848]

I’m an Emirates guy. 1st choice for me when I can. Have had many (and I travel a lot!!) good flights with great friendly service. My cousins a Captain on their A380 program. We’ve had many conversations and I’ve always been impressed by their business practices. Must be honest though. I’ve become way to “lose” with my wallet, passport, phone, watch etc. on flights and in the lounges. Some good old due diligence for me from now on.

Bike not in half. Just his baby seat broke away from the subframe. But that still ain’t gonna buff out!!

How can you be given a good score for smoothness but have bad scores for both accelerating and braking? Do I not understand the definition of smoooooooth?

I’m fortunate to have over a decade of racing experience behind me and I can tell you, the outside of turn one lap one is not the place to be. Very few gifts are available out there. Lorenzo put himself on the outside. He must accept his mistake.

Interesting view. Not one I’ve considered. I love racing. I’m competitive by nature. But I don’t see this as boosting my ego. But then again I’m no champion. Offering a different narrative to the “why” here. Not trying to debate any ethic or moral values.

I think you read too much into my question. You answered it in your first sentence. The rest of your post is related to how you and some others feel about the topic but has nothing to do with my question.

How does what Kevin did (ride in this event) differ from Lance who rides in quite a few events. The 24 hour MTB Old Pueblo for example?

Rossi is/was the boss at victory shenanigans on the slow down lap. He had countless original ideas and executed them well. WhoreGay tried to follow with his flag stabbing land grab without compensation and now MarkyMark looks like one of the action figures from my kids Fortnite game.

Readymix Quarry Honeydew. Home to my first MTB Club RMBC. Used to ride there from home, smash a few laps and head back home. We raced there almost every Sunday, R10 to enter a club race. The Pearton’s Kombi offloading like a dozen bicycles. V-Brakes, Hardtails, Tubes and if you were faaaaaaancy, a Polar of some sort. GOOD TIMES!!!

Start song.....Good Vibrations

Felt so bad for Kimi today. :-(

Apologies if covered in a post above but just an FYI. When doing any sort of “booster” that requires you “healthygear” card. Make sure that the member/depended that is buying the shoes/hrm/etc uses THEIR OWN healthygear card. The card is not “per family”. My wife did a shoebooster. We were not getting the refunds, I queried and the little smallprint screwed me.....again.

Agree there is no excuse for poor manners on the trail. Red barn is extremely hard to pass at and don’t underestimate how competitive the shorter distance race can be. But in saying that it’s not an excuse. There should have been an announcement at the start if they were going to have a cut off at the split. At least then people could have been prepared or planned. Didn’t help that the front runners were flying at such a high pace they came back around to the split before many 55km riders got there for the first time.

In my group. Just one..... Me.

There were plenty (I had 3 in my batch alone) today at RedBarn Garmin race.
