Doing my first BMX race next weekend. Really going into the deep end, and going to a National-level race. I’ve been on a track 1 time previously. Now I’ve done a loooooot of MX racing in my life, so I’m comfortable on any kind of bike, but I haven’t raced anything in over a decade probably, so the nerves are there.
Anyone interested, we have
[email protected] for discussion. It has lapsed as of late, as I have been (quite literally) the only participant, but trying to do more to get it going. Join if you want, I’ll try to get Race Threads going as well!

I’ve been having similar issues, and when I am given an answer or find it way back in comment histories, I’ll copy and paste it into mine and reference the older post. This seems to help a lot in Discords where it serves you results based on date since post.
LEMMiNO is my favorite bi-annual creator.
Nexpo does some really good stuff too, but I think recently he’s just been doing like Reddit deep dives, and that is only so interesting.
I missed those, I go through phases with him. I get it though, guy cranks out videos and probably gets old using the same cave diving stock videos lol.
Scary Interesting does some horror documentary stuff about, idk, scary situations people have been stuck in. No AI images, which is saying something, cause he always has some kind of background or graphic going.
Yeah I’d be cool with this. As I get older, and I realize just how much time modders put into these things. And in a field so hard to break into, I’m all about them having a way to get some financial support for their time, effort, and skills. I also realize that the platform costs money, and some portion would go to the parent company. But it would have to be something reasonable, otherwise it’s just exploitative. Which is the kinda company WotC is, so…lol
That definitely tracks with what I know of WotC. Sucks, cause I’d be mroe than happy to pay both modders, especially if it was quality content, and if WotC wants a reasonable cut, then that’s just part of it I suppose. But nah…they suck lol
They have venture capital backing as a direct competitor to Twitter. I’m sure there are other sources as well, but that’s the big one, I think.
