It’s a quiz, but I don’t know the answer.

Californian
Impressive Beard.
Yeti team rider for around 6 years.
Rides a bike he mostly designed himself based on a Polygon DH frame, but heavily modified with his own linkages he made with a friend.
Designed it because he destroyed 8 shocks in a few weeks on the Polygon.

I remember the story about the bike and the 8 broken shocks, but not his name.

We were talking to him for about half an hour and I didn’t dare ask “so, what’s your name then so I can Google you?”

Sorry everyone.

I saw him again today, still none the wiser. Long beard and long hair.

Perfectly lovely chap.

This week I’ve spotted.

Just ask him...or just call him Lopes and he'll correct you.
