2021 World Cup Downhill discussion

I was watching closely with the last 8 or so riders, what they’re time was at a certain point about 10 seconds before the 3rd split, and saying if I thought they were 1.2 up or .4 down etc, .

I do the same thing every race.

I momentarily earned my son’s respect. Might be the last time. I’m taking it.

Thinking your dad is Rainman is slightly different to ‘respect’

Oooooft! Shaw is lucky to be alive right now...

He hit that rock so hard it fucked Minnaar's back.

What's with Dean Lucas going all anti vax apparently?
I liked his flamboyance amongst the commercial hard sell and missing teeth of mtb, but fuck him if he's all Byron bay influencer now

So Deano's blocked you too?

Noticing a trend?

Harsh. I usually glance at his posts….anything non racing is about green hair and dandy clothes.

In that case, I might head over there and get some tips. Thanks for the heads up.

I did see a post of his about clean/healthy eating and being fit and healthy being a way to fight covid... Wasn't necessarily an anti vax post I guess

He got dragged in the PB comments. I had a look at his insta and his insta story isn't anti vax per se but definitely why aren't we all eating healthy as well. Kinda edging towards the naturalistic fallacy

It can't hurt, but ffs, "Eat a vegetable" is hardly anti-vax.

 

[moorey]

That’s still not necessarily a bad thing…but depends on how he presents it.
Pete Evans V Jack Moir approach.

He's definitely been listening to some Joe Rogan recently. Went on a whole rant on his insta stories about how the government should mandate healthy diets instead of vaccines and blah blah.

Not full anti-vax like Ratboy but he's definitely taken a few steps down Pete Evans Way.

Fuckin' YIKES.

Joe Rogan, gateway to Jordan Peterson who is a gateway to alt right MRA neo Nazi adjacent wankery.
Apologies all for the derail.
Back to DH, did Troy crash?

Fuck Ratboy and his shite.
I can’t deny I like the notion of taxing the fuck outta junk food, and subsidizing fresh food, to offset the fallout, but you can’t mandate.

Yes.
