- I cant pass to save my life lmfao, atleast no blisters this week!
Came 34th in class out of 57 and 89th out of 194 overall. Both happy and thoroughly disappointed with my riding.
You’ve come a long way baby. You’re half way there…this race anyway.
half way to keeping the bike the right way up too haha
Good thing you went wide on the the start, it was a gong show . Wow, if someone is on my tail I let them pass, even if they are slight flaster it allows us all to move quicker. Some guys just dont get that.. ie. the guy you follow for 15mins. At 7:18 the guy passes you - that should have been YOU passing the guy in front of you. Need to look for the opportunities at these corners. - yeah, I know it was steep there and there was a small log there. I was lucky when I when through there and passed two guys. You can see it on the video done by @rustynutracing. I'll have some clips in my video when I get around to it :)
yeaaaaa, every novice a start is a gong show lmfao
This race was pretty intense for someone who even raced in novice B but very fun!
glad you had fun! Did you do cochranes aswell? Was a bit more flowy, and no along the side of a hill intense either haha.
@@woodlandwugui no I didn’t , im not racing until the cord in the fall unfortunately
Like you I struggled to pass at the RJ XC so I'm hoping to see some suggestions in the comments.
I saw the same opening as you did at 05:15 and tried a pass with the same same results, got passed by another rider :(
A number of times I was tailgating another rider to pass when I got an opportunity but that back fired when the rider went down right in front of me and I got passed by a string of riders before I could get around.
Hope you had fun though! I still thoroughly enjoyed the race but it was a reminder I suck haha. Hopefully some people got some tip top top tips for us. Otherwise, I'll revert back to 'try to crash less and you'll do better'
@@woodlandwugui We are on the same page. It was a great race and I suck but I am hopeful that I will improve. Energy and alertness was way down on the last lap and I badly needed electrolytes but all I had was water. Stupid little laydowns and bobbles cost me at least 10 positions overall and probably a few positions in my class.
Looking forward to Cochrane's XC.
I was the guy in the space gear and I flew of my bike to where I was laying 17:30
Damn dude!!! I presume no injuries! Was it the massive root that took out your front? You were so far from your bike!!!
@@woodlandwugui went a little wide and fully hit the tree I’m all good tho
