I saw one in the flesh while i was in singapore last year, as my friend over there rides for polygon. Not a bad looking bike, had a bit of a ride around the car bike and they feel quite good.
If people or sponsors not just particularly alcohol sponsors put money into MTB then people like Tracy Hannah could maybe be overseas winning world cups. There could also be national teams formed so people don't have to race world cups, to either race for free or maybe make some money racing in...
Saying I don't care who Shawn Palmer is, is like a motocross racer saying i don't care who Jeremy McGrath is.
DH would probably be dead now if it wasn't for guys like Palmer and Nico.
Not many pedally tracks in WA but to get length out of most tracks here they need to be technical which is where i guess Sam gets his cornering ability.
No there's so many motorbike accidents because some drivers don't pay attention on the roads.
As for the helmet conversation i did wear a skate helmet dirt jumping and after a weekend in hospital, with a smashed up face and a snaped tooth i think i'll be wearing a full face from now on.
At least you've got a choice HANS devices are manditory in all car racing (exept drifting). I'd also be keen to see how well this would work with a troylee helmet as the back of the helmet sits alot higher than a moto helmet.
