Maybe it will do JP good to be a privateer for a bit and forget about selling flat brim hats. Or maybe he's just an asshole regardless. It's very subjective. Personally I don't like the guy, he's a salesman that is prepared to cheat to get coverage for his sponsors, that's shit.

Sofiane's interview on Bikes or Death was really good. I really appreciate his approach and his attitude, really down to earth.

Yeah, trust me, it didn't feel flat! Most of Colorado is nice gentle rail grades, even if they go on for 4-5 hours straight. The Gila is short steep punchy hills, much like down here in Devon, except very hot, loose sandy shit and lightning storms everywhere! yay! The Gila was easily my favourite part of the whole route, I have a thing for hot dry places though.
What's not to like
The road to Pie Town

The second half of the Gila after Beaverhead work camp is not flat, it's brutal sawtooth. But after that it is plain sailing from Silver City
Yeah, I think the transparency that Rue displayed was quite reassuring and she made a real effort to stay out of Lael's way and not intervene in any way. That's much more respectable than other film crews etc. Even in the original Ride the Divide film, the protagonist racer Mike Dion bivvied with the film crew, but there were only 16 racers and no keyboard warriors, so it wasn't an issue (plus he scratched).
