A bit harsh as I find most articles here well written. But this one, while interesting, has about one typo per paragraph... It's also funny how the number of typos here make me trust Mike Levy's similar article more!

TBH I think they are they are one of the few crowds that get slow motion right. No gimmicky slowing down during jumps with heavy music in the background, but rather allowing us to see just how controlled the riders are with excellent music choices. Silvia mondays ROCK!!!

2 words: Ghetto tubeless. Running both proper and ghetto tubebless setups at the moment both with regular maxxis tyres, its amazing. I used to puncture ALL the time, havnt punctured since i made the switch despite running them 5psi softer. Ghetto tubeless only requires a bmx tube and some sealant (and 20minutes of your time at first). No new wheel,s no new tyres. I reckon the weight is the same as with a regular tube and the puncture resistance is probably higher than these michelin tubes.

I think it's near the train tracks...

Yeah hill will be doing well to get on the podium. Blinky, Peaty, Cole, Hannah lots of big guys. And after seeing hill in the 3minute gaps teaser I would say fitness wasn't a top priority in his winter training... Belly's gonna get ya!

Some solid bike checks there, thanks. Also, funny to look at the number views for each bike, looks like Orange and Nukeproof have the most hype!

Loads of good spots and a strong club/race scene (http://www.killarneycyclingclub.com/ are very strong XC club with top class DHers, mbcc.ie based in cork are a very welcoming club into everything AM, XC, DH, and 021racing.com are full on DH racing). Just get used to riding in the wet and cleaning your bike after each session.
