amen to thatTurley said:... Oh, and bikes in Aust must be made cheaper... please...
Personally I think the best way to get people back into it isn't through factory teams (which cost tons and provide little - even companies like Specialized axed their DH teams long ago). I think grassroots teams are the way to go...Turley said:I reckon that the sport is still in the recession after 2000, norba is dead or close to it, but with the 2nd year of coverage of redbull ride on tv, and the HUGE help of chilli factor showing segments of trials and DH, I reckon that DH will come back stronger than ever. Perhaps there will be a few changes, tracks need to be made more media friendly and here in australia, the two factions have joined together in one series which is of HUGE benifit to our sport. I can see tracks becoming more gnarlier, faster and more "extreme" to appeal to the tv audience. I also have a personal opinion that all the major bike companies should have a factory DH team! The industry needs to pull themselves together and grow! Oh, and bikes in Aust must be made cheaper... please...
