Totally agree. Let's keep the variety coming and see who adapts best!

Oakley DRT5 Helmet Review - June 10, 2019, 12:27 p.m.

Confirmed by a friend. After a few hours in the helmet the ribbing of the silicone left marks in my forehead for a period. Not sure it's of any importance but wanted to let you know.

Interesting points slyfink. You’d probably then want to add the severity of the crash as well. Those two elements added make for a very complicated study. If I ever come across that info I’ll be sure to share it with readers.

Good question on the forehead. I’m not sure what it looks like currently as I don’t tend to look in the mirror unless absolutely necessary—there isn’t much to look at, haha. I’ll try to remember after my next ride in the helmet and will take note. I will say though, my forehead doesn’t feel irritated after a long ride with the silicone strip against it. The ribs are quite soft.

Looks like it was shot from a motorcycle of some sort?

Dear Uncle Dave: What's with all this reach and stack nonsense? - May 28, 2019, 7:05 a.m.

Well said, Vik. TT is for sure still important and yeah, people appear more focused on reach and don’t consider stack. I’d like to see geometry charts include the DT length. I find this more important than reach, at least on its own. I’ve been playing with calculating it based on the provided reach and stack but haven’t had enough time on enough bikes with it to see how accurate it is or what works for me.

Haha. True, Nouseforaname.

But has the EWS team been running inserts? 🤔

Lol. That's bloody gold!

2019 Madeira EWS – Is a Trend Developing? - May 14, 2019, 6:51 a.m.

True Vik. It’s tight and thrilling but coverage currently falls short in displaying that well. Even if one stage was live and well done it would be great. But as you say, some form of networked POV camera setup could be great!

Wrapping your Ride for Posterity (and resale!) - May 9, 2019, 7:30 a.m.

Any bikes I’ve taped up have had it removed when the time came to move on. Pulling it off revealed a shiny new bike beneath and often left me wondering why I was selling it. Then the memories of our good times together would flood in before I had to shake it off, hahaha!
