Wyatt Earp Posted January 24, 2012 Share Okay. since the question has been asked, the thread was binned because of what some members rightly pointed out was trolling. Can I take off my serious mod hat now and get back to the fun?Yeah troll, go ahead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Luke. Posted January 24, 2012 Share Is a freerider an XC guy who does not look good in lycra? Just trying to find a new humour angle given the thread-change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manbearpig Posted January 24, 2012 Share I spent almost 8 hours on a 29er hardtail this weekend. I still have my own teeth with original fillings, the bowl of porridge that was once my lower back and pelvis has now knitted enough to support my full body weight and I made it out of bed this morning without popping 2 Synap Forte. I must be in the TOP 10 at least? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted January 24, 2012 Share FR'ers are just there to enjoy the trail. Not to time who can get to the top first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_mtb Posted January 24, 2012 Share Well, since most of us who take DH and freeride seriously train just as hard as a marathon rider, if not more, you can't define toughness by strength. The answer is easy, of course the freerider/DHer is tougher. Hands down. I'd like to see a lycra clad XC'er take on a road gap jump, or a 10 foot drop off. If you define toughness by being able to slog up a hill I'd wager that most DH'ers, if given the same carbon XC bike, will beat most. Unless of course you're also doing hard trail running, plyometrics, dedicated circuits, spinning as well as trail riding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
