TrailMaker Added a reply to Possibly the most complex machine man has ever built
7/23/2022 6:41pm Actually, the rate of tangible advancement is slowing dramatically. If the absolute potential of some process is 100 (say...making a product...or moving good from point A to point

TrailMaker Added a reply to What PED's are recommended for improved performance/recovery and healing?
6/1/2022 7:21pm My experience.... #1 If you can buy it over the counter, it won't do anything significant. #2 You will get the best results if you do ALL you can naturally. When you plateau THEN you hit the PEDs. This means you work your ass of for YEARS AND YEARS...then go enhanced. You need to hit the wall over and over...
TrailMaker Added a reply to Barcia probation terms?
5/8/2022 9:16pm You seriously need to have your eyes and head examined. It was a heavily rutted turn. There were 3 distinct ruts. Barcia went high. Mookie went low. The ruts did not merge. Each stayed in their rut start to finish. So no matter what speed either of them went, they were not going to run into each other. Ever. Seriously...watch...

4/16/2022 1:06pm He just looks completely unprofessional. Get a haircut, take a shower, and dress semi sharp. I can not believe FELD and NBC think this look is a way to promote the product.

3/19/2022 9:20pm In SX....this looks like the best Tomac has ever been. Considering that Yamaha's prioritize stability over pinpoint handling, that does not bode well for the competition when we head outdoors....
TrailMaker Added a reply to Bam Bam never went anywhere
3/19/2022 8:47pm From about 15:30 left in the race, till Anderson passed Barcia at 12:30, it was clear that Barcia was fatigued and was slowing. Everyone from P2-P6 was catching him. It was really tightening up. Barcia probably pushed too hard, and had to back off to recover. The thing with Barcia is he does not control his emotions. He gets passed...

3/17/2022 5:22pm Wow it so impressive that simply by watching them on TV you know more about their strengths, weaknesses, personality and talent than the man who was their coach for their entire riding careers. And who also happens to be their father. LOL

3/13/2022 2:44pm Or 20 years ago.... Big James said on occasion that Mookie was more talented than James, but not as driven about MX. James was simply so driven at a young age and developed his skills to the elite level (and beyond) at such a young age. Mookie was not as into it...and it took him a while to be all...
TrailMaker Added a reply to Re-entering the track
3/13/2022 2:36pm Elbow a guy off the track and win the title. Think about it. Sometimes it takes very little to push a guy off the track. If he has to go back to the point he was nudged off the track, he will lose 10-15 seconds at least. In a title chase...that could be the title. It would end up being...

3/13/2022 2:22pm SX is not MX. It was utterly delusional to believe that his MX title indicated he would somehow now be a contender in SX. DF is just not anywhere close to as confident and consistent in SX as he is in MX DV has said as much himself ("SX does not come easy for Dylan"...or something to that effect on...
TrailMaker Added a reply to Annnnd it's over......
3/12/2022 11:50pm 2015 was quite a long time ago...and that crash was totally unnecessary. He was in P1 and gapping everyone. Eli probably learned a lot from that.... hence his lack of major get offs since.
TrailMaker Added a reply to Props to Tomac
3/12/2022 11:46pm Eli has always been a rider that needs a certain feel to be confident. When he is not confident, he really seems to back it down to feel safe and comfortable. This is probably one of the reasons he has never been hurt a lot (aside from his double shoulder debacle at Thunder Valley). He has also always been cautious...

3/9/2022 5:10pm Last year at this point (9 races done in the series), the Osbourne was the top Husky rider in 8th with 123 points. JA was in 11th with 116 points. This year, after 9 races, Malcolm is 4th in the standings with 164 points. So when JA quit Husky, which rider should they have hired instead of Malcolm? The only...
TrailMaker Added a reply to Has Anderson thrown this thing away with poor choices?
3/7/2022 11:50pm But it DIDN'T work. The way you are thinking is the way someone like Barcia thinks. He thinks if a pass is made...it is a success. But then he gets "Bogled". Same here. Yes he made the pass, but the way he did it, caused Mookie to blow a gasket, and then Mookie put him down. How often do you...

3/7/2022 8:25pm On what planet is trying to pass two world class riders (Eli and MS) in a single turn from 5-6 bike lengths back a "good move"? It was never going to work. After that stupidity by JA, Mookie decided to one up JA in the stupidity category by getting revenge.... Plenty of stupid on both sides here....but in my book...

TrailMaker Added a reply to Best riding program to increase endurance
3/1/2022 11:22pm Train with a power meter. This is most feasible with road cycling. Get the book "The Time Crunched Cyclist" by Chris Carmichael. Until you train with a power meter, you are just guessing about what your body is actually doing. Mix it up as well. Err on the side of intensity over long and easy. 20 minutes is not really...
