Yeah they are all hips apart from a long and low after the first proper jump. The first hip was much bigger before (and better IMO). But still good fun for throwing some euro tables on!

Just visited Woburn sands after it had been ploughed, they have managed to put up 6 jumps on the line so far, but my god they are a struggle to get through, that being said, the first three are a delight

Thread-worthy crazy new video from Drew Besanson. Who would ride this if they had the chance?

I have the Fatality Pedals, which are pretty much exactly the same as the premiums. They have held up really good still pretty much perfect after 2 years, and easy to find titanium spindles/pins if you are into that kinda stuff. Also I would recommend the fatalities over the premiums since they are cheaper by a fair way if I remember correctly.

I believe team sky developed an elliptical one which significantly decreased the de-chaining on the tour, Sean Yates (Director Sportif of Team Sky) “At the Tour, the Sky mechanics were told that dropping the chain was not an option. So they designed a chain guard to make sure that wasn’t going to happen. You can drop a chain from round rings too and it’s not really commented on, but with Osymetric it’s a big deal.”
Even so, there have been too many debates to count about the benefits v detriments of Osymetric chain rings. Some people say that the pro's flat spots in their pedal action are not significant, even if on paper they should be very good; there must be a reason not every single pro is using them.

Personally I believe that almost all (if not all) the riders are doping, in one way or another. Be it EPO (which I believe is undetectable) or more clearly illicit drugs. So many riders have been associated with drugs that I don't believe there is no smoke without fire, which certainly extends beyond this years TdF.
This being said, if most people agree he and other athletes are doping in one way or another (legally or illegally) do people think there will ever come a time when the sports governing body will just allow it since it is too difficult to stop? And see how truly fast they can cycle the Tour De France. I know there are difficulties concerning the safety of the athletes, but perhaps there are work arounds for this. It would stop the façade of everyone denying doping and make things clearer.

The Bike Shop / Chris Froome; Doping?

After Froome's second win of the Tour de France, there have been many people saying he is doping. What do you guys think? Just natural ability? Or something suspicious going on?

Does anyone care about this kind of stuff any more? If anyone does the first one has been landed on some ridiculously big kicker. Kinda cool
