Been looking forward to viewing the event but "Cancelled" came up at the last minute? OK, so it got rained out and so they just called the seeding runs the race:

I have had 8 or so ebikes over the last 10yrs, some with hub motors used primarily on roads, and some with DIY mid motors and none have been restricted. Oh and all have had throttles, very useful for starting off and as a walk assist and then left alone. I just use common sense from over 50yrs...

How about a Pagan version?

While the focus of this thread has drifted towards the acceptability of the chance of life altering injury and if it is something that those that choose to watch action sports events can expect to witness let me just say as the parent of a young adult that sustained a very similar injury 15yrs...

Seriously! They were not to be denied....between the chainsaws and smoke bombs and the sheer humanity it is quite the spectacle, from afar anyway. The race was not bad either.

Well race time is on again and track walks posted. New track is looking fresh and if weather predictions come to pass should make things interesting. Any bets on if the crowd will be able to rush the finish line this year?

Kudos Suns_PSD! Finally someone has gotten the correct way to express wattage consumption! #1 Bosch - 0.490 Wh/mi

That is because it is free! Like DH coverage used to be under RedBull. And it is still coverage of athletes pushing the envelope which always seems to draw a crowd.
