I suppose the other question is will the World Cup Downhill series ever start back up?

I checked, 4 events postponed or canceled, they plan to race again in June.
I sure hope they get a season. The downhill riders are just so entertaining to watch. Lots of great coverage out there, I especially love Ben Cathro's track walks and "Inside the Tape" series.

Speaking of downhill, this is my all-time favorite cycling-related video. Partly because these bike-handling skills are insane, but mostly because of the commentary. It's like a instant cure for a bad mood hearing how excited they get.
