Or Grinduro?

What a waste of Switzerland.

Unpopular opinion on this forum and @moorey will get his blood-stained "no-chamois-not-ever" knickers in a twist, but Grinduro is actually a great format in that context. Also thankfully no-one is claiming it as a genre of riding, just the name of an event.

But what if I want to wear a full face on XC tracks - is there an additional category?

Yes, it's call "Noduro" but compulsory road lycra kit with full face.

I saw a lady training for this category at my local trails on the weekend. DH full face, road kit. Was probably on an e-bike too but I was otherwise distracted at the time.

Is it Grin Duro or Grind duro? These seem like polar opposite genres.

Is it timed climbs, untimed descents?

That's more of a German kink.

It's called and Antigravity Enduro.

Look, you’re right. If it triggers @moorey we’re all winners.

I’ll be taking the gondola though.

It's a gravel race but formatted like a gravity enduro where the ~100km course is broken into a number of timed segments, with un-timed liaison in between. Timed segments might be climbs or descents on gravel or single track, un-timed liaison means people regroup in between and it's a bit more of a party atmosphere.

That's just Saturdays at Lysterfield.

I resemble that. Lysterfield has angry pebbles and twigs in it.

The only linen that is purer than white is “natural” linen, duh. Also when your toddler named River throws up his oat milk babycino on you, no one will notice.

OK, I'll bite. What wankfest is 'MIND' an acronym for?

Get your vomit bucket ready. Marketing dribble overload:

Not sure MIND stands for anything just a name they have given it. Maybe it’s Mondraker Integrated Nob Device.
