Redbull Rampage is on this weekend! The competition runs tomorrow (Friday), but we’re planning to watch it Saturday night, starting at 6PM. If you want to join us. We’ll supply pizza, pop and munchies.
We really enjoyed watching the event, and some of our guests enjoyed watching us as we watched it. Incredible riding! The POV footage they showed during the event had me cringing. Congrats to Sorge, and everyone who competed - just making it to the bottom safely was amazing. So glad there were no major injuries.
Am I mistaken but I don’t recall seeing a single flat, or chain off during the competition or practice. Was this the year of the mechanic / tech FINALLY?
Still a lot of snapped chains and flats in the WC Downhill tho. Some of the top riders have had to finish their runs chainless or on a rim with a tube hanging off the back wheel.
