I admit that I've only seen about 10 XCE races so I don't know much about it, as opposed to regular XCO and XCC. Of those few races that I've seen, only one has actually ben off-road. Why are so few XCE races off-road? Why aren't they ALL off-road? I mean, they're mountain bikes. Please educate me about this discipline. Thanks.
Can we get even one feature on the real stars of this event? Which are the bikes. Bars and brakes, frame geometry and gears. I really want to know what the best tires are for this environment? Nothing? Who really cares who any of these riders are?! Poor broadcast coverage.
I think XCO and XCC is great these days, especially with the shorter and much more technical tracks in recent years. I have to admit that I thought XC Eliminator stopped existing years ago until I happenend across this video.
This stuff isn't really XC. They're just riding round a town with a few simple obstacles, and the last one of this XC eliminator series I saw, they were just riding round on grass. It was very underwhelming. World Cup XCO (cross country olympic) races are much more engaging. Technical ascents and descents, varied terrain, a longer race with more chance for duels, attacks, mechanicals etc.
its nice to see hardtail still has its place

Is it just me that finds XC boring?
