1/10/2024 11:29am Finishing it up this morning. The beginning of this week has been insane. In the mean time, we have a ton of great race coverage on the homepage as well (Thanks to Lewis, Sean, and Jamie who get stuff done on time unlike me).

1/4/2024 5:26am A more basic question is why are so many people afraid of change relative to any new technology? If any change in design of any product does not work it will not sell. If it does work and you do not want it.....you simply do not buy it!!! Pretty simple! As a 21 year old kid starting his first job out of college I had to purchase, install and train the others relative to the first personal computer in the factory (a normal item we now use everyday). It was a difficult sell, I had to deal with a significant...

11/27/2023 10:38am I guess I'm not sure exactly, but maybe something in the USA where we don't do unconstitutional gorilla/barbarism things. We used to be better than that. Rong.

Question Liked a reply to forum topic Let us cherish this incredible moment in SX/MX history, thanks to manufacturers !
11/6/2023 5:01am I think it is the combo. There is a bit of great of every decade. As many manufacturers and I would even say accessibility (as 10 or 20 years old bikes are still good) as in the 80s, some colors and characters from the 90s, some fame like Pastrana/McGrath, more money, foreigners and some perfect seasons like in the 2000s, and some great racing that we can easily watch like in the 2010s. But I also agree, not everything is perfect, I have also been very critical on some parts. Money can be better distributed (purse etc; so far only...

dv12.com Liked a reply to forum topic No ride for Ferrandis?
10/25/2023 10:45am Let’s get some stuff straight because you’re losing yourself. 1. I’m my own boss. If a MX coach acts like the rider is the boss, the relationship will last but the results won’t come. In any sport, the athletes aren’t the coaches’ boss. It’s the other way around, buddy 2. Pourcel threw himself under the bus (or shot himself in the foot) and not only at MotoConcepts. With the talent we had in 2011, Chiz, THahn & Cie, the results & the bike weren’t as bad as everyone thinks. Chiz was riding well until he snapped a chain in Houston...

Pumpkin37 Liked a reply to forum topic Font Identifying
10/20/2023 6:08am It's likely based on Druk Wide Heavy Italic, from the Druk font family. https://commercialtype.com/catalog/druk Font licensing can be expensive, especially when used commercially. In this case, a less expensive variation could exist via another designer or font foundry, or a designer could have created this custom by editing an existing font. I've done a quick sketch below which yields a result pretty close to what's on Chase's bike above:

JM485 Liked a forum topic First ride on MY Stark Varg (Trail Review)
10/19/2023 12:52pm Last week I was finally able to take delivery of my Varg, and I have to say this thing is awesome! It's been pretty cool seeing a lot of excited customers finally receive their bikes over the last couple weeks, and it seems like the overwhelming consensus is that the wait was worth it. My first ride on it happened to be some woods riding since a few of my buddies received theirs as well, and we decided a group ride would be a lot of fun (I believe this may be a world record for a pack of Vargs...

Beagle Liked a reply to forum topic Opinion on future e-bike racing
10/10/2023 10:44am I do not understand how we go from "here is the first truly competitive electric dirt bike available to the masses" to "all electric will kill the sport"? Electric dirt bikes reached the market, if you like it you can buy it, if you don't you can look at it with disdain all day long, no problem. Now I'm entering the realm of speculations and fantaisies to try to get some logic into this argument. Say one day in 10, 20 or 50 years your government bans ICE dirtbikes. Does anyone seriously think it will have anything to do with...

ktm77man Added a reply to 2024 SX time change?
9/28/2023 6:39am If so that it pretty awesome! And looking at these 2 maps (population density and population by time zone) it makes sense that if you're trying to sell ads, a focus on where people live is key. I know there is a ton of population on the west cost, but with how much of the US population being in the...
ktm77man Added a reply to FXR making cheaper gear brand?
8/7/2023 12:40pm Count me in the minority but I think this is awesome! It's done it a ton of different industries (see many auto manufacturers; almost identical body styles with some tweaks in offering, color ways, and slight body style change but the general look is almost identical) for differentiation, and growth but not having to reinvent the wheel. FXR has the...
The real Sasquatch Liked a reply to forum topic Million dollar idea - saving lives
8/7/2023 10:12am While Ryno might not be into wearing some of the stuff out there, and would probably not start up a company to build a product. You could pick his brain for what he thought about the idea, it might still provide some good feedback. Or could be a waste. But hearing some of what he thought may be issues with the concept may help refine the idea . I often will ask for feedback from people I know dislike something I'm doing to get that side of an opinion to help me finetune something. Knowing what Your worst critic will...

Whip Liked a reply to forum topic Social Anxiety??
6/1/2023 10:40am Right - this is something I've cracked, ready for the downvotes but this will work: 1. Get your blood sugar levels working right - if you have been shovelling food into your body 3x day for decades then try a bit of intermittent fasting / fasting 2. Get a second phone with all social media / distractions removed - you can forward calls to this phone from your other phone 3. Stop watching porn - seriously, you're not designed to virtually "have sex" with 1,000s of women like a Roman emperor, this fucks up your motivation/reward loop 4. Watch the...

Spoonguy Liked a reply to forum topic Bummer news from Bell
4/10/2023 5:29am My apologies ahead of time, I really mean no offense. But I own a business, most of my friends are business owners, this is a sensitive subject to me. But the old socialistic idea that companies find joy or are looking to punish or wreak havoc in the lives of their employees is simply not true. There are many, many business owners that would take a bullet for their staff, and sacrifice for the people that work for them. But sometimes hard decisions have to be made. Sometimes a business has some bad employees too. Some years are not as...

2/15/2023 1:24pm Scrolling is not great for multiple stats. I like being able to look at the gaps between riders and scrolling would completely ruin that. They sometimes show the rider's face, sponsors and stats which is nice to see from time to time and puts a face tot he name. Plus screens are so big today, this scoreboard really isn't messing up the view. 17% of the horizontal space is taken up, what are we really missing?

GrapeApe Liked a reply to forum topic Munn Racing robbed. Just in time for SX.
2/2/2023 5:58am I don't think the guys you see doing wheelies downtown drive beater F350's, and I certainly don't think they would know what to do with a goose neck trailer. This group is selling these bikes, not riding them. My educated guess is they are headed for the border. As for this being related to the Houston SX, Munn Racing is 3+ hours away from Houston. I hate this for Munn, great people and they deserve better. I hope insurance covers the loss and damage.
