Red carpet premieres? Cute.
Slavík prefers a stair set and a screaming derailleur for his opening act.

Video of the Day
This edit feels like an episode of Extreme Home Makeover: Trail Edition.
CRC walks into Aberdeenshire, slaps a few trees around, and suddenly you’ve got flow smoother than your aunt’s jazz records.
One lap you’re learning to pump, the next you’re eyeing up stuff that requires a will and testament.
Scotland’s been holding out on us, and it’s frankly rude.
⏰ Watch time - 11 min 35 sec
Bonus: This is a highlight reel of mountain biking’s worst life decisions… in HD.
Jack Moir walks us through Morillon’s gnar like he’s casually describing a bar fight.
The only thing sketchier than the rock gardens are the drop speed.

History of Scott Bikes – Ski Poles, Space Tech & Dirt Dreams
Ed Scott wasn’t supposed to be a cycling pioneer.
He was just a Sun Valley skier in 1958, sick of bamboo poles that snapped if you so much as looked at them wrong.
So he built the world’s first aluminum ski pole. Boom, skiing changed forever.
Overnight, Ed went from random Idaho engineer to guy who made every other brand’s R&D team cry into their coffee.
Goggles That Actually Worked
By 1970, Scott decided “seeing” was a decent idea for motocross.
Enter the first MX-specific goggles.
Suddenly, dirt riders weren’t blinking mud out of their eyes every 10 seconds.
They could actually see berms before eating them.
Game-changer.
The Bike Plot Twist
Fast-forward to the 80s and Scott crashes into the cycling world like an uninvited party guest who ends up running the DJ booth.
In 1986, they rolled out their first mountain bike, the Scott Superbike.
It looked slick, felt fast, and made people realize MTB wasn’t just klunkers and jean shorts anymore.
Then 1989 hit, and Scott dropped the aerodynamic handlebar.
People laughed.
Then Greg LeMond bolted it onto his rig, blew everyone’s doors off, and won the Tour de France.
No one was laughing after that.
Scott had gone from ski poles to literally redefining racing in under three decades.
The 90s Were Wild
The 90s were when Scott decided, “let’s just break cycling.”
They unveiled the Unishock fork in 1991, because apparently bouncing up and down was a good thing.
A year later, the first full-suspension Scott MTB rolled out, right as the rest of the industry was still trying to figure out how to keep cantilever brakes from squealing.
Scott was way ahead. Their bikes didn’t just ride different; they felt like the future had arrived early.
Enter the Carbon Era
The 2000s were Scott’s “flex decade.”
The CR1 road bike hit the scene with a frame so light you could sneeze it off the workstand.
Riders loved it.
Mechanics sweated bullets every time they touched a torque wrench.
Carbon was Scott’s playground, and they were going full mad scientist with it.
Scott Today: Missiles With Pedals
Now? Scott’s everywhere.
XC World Cups, EWS, road tours… you name it, they’ve got athletes shredding on bikes that look suspiciously like guided weapons systems with two wheels.
The Spark and Genius are practically legends.
Their e-MTBs are getting smarter than half the riders piloting them.
And somehow, they’re still dropping new designs that make the rest of the industry look like it’s stuck in dial-up internet.
More Than Just a Brand
Here’s the thing: Scott isn’t just selling bikes.
They’re selling progress.
They’ve been doing it since Ed Scott ditched bamboo and decided aluminum was sexier.
Every product screams the same message: “good enough is for someone else.”

Marin just handed groms the cheat code to mountain biking!
With dual suspension and 11 gears, the Rift Zone Jr. is straight-up unfair.

Trail of the Day
Zut Alors Mountain Biking Trail - Abercanaid
Zut Alors is basically BPW’s way of saying “hope you stretched.”
It greets you with a rock garden that rattles your fillings loose, then immediately bribes you with sculpted jumps so smooth they deserve Michelin stars.
That step-up in the middle?
It’s the bouncer checking your ID. No confidence, no entry.
Laugh of the Day
Bro unlocked a feature the devs didn’t patch yet 😂
That’s all for today folks. We hope everyone gets some saddle time out there. See you all tomorrow! 🤙
