Very impressive. Feels like I’m watching in fast forward! I rode a couple loops on this trail today in preparation for the October race and that uphill at the end is brutal!
Hey Patrick, thanks for the video. I watch POV race vids while I ride rollers in the winter. I know awesome cinematography isn't the goal for these things, but man, 34:25 - 35:08, following those guys through the forest of perfectly straight tree trunks with the sun flaring directly over the trail - that was cool. Moments like that are why we ride in the first place.
Thank you! It nice to hear positive comments. I typically put up the full video just for those reasons. I like to watch this stuff in the off season and checkout trails or races I’ve yet to experience myself, so I figured I should give back when possible. Glad you enjoyed it!
Very nice video congrats! As regards the electronic shifter fault, that is exactly the reason why I will never go electronic when a good old school cabled shifter works perfectly every time if properly maintained by simply keeping it clean and well lubricated. I like watching bike race footage like yours. Another guy who does the same thing as you (Ben Goyette) and who I like watching his videos too, straps an external battery pack to his handlebar to power his camera. In this way he is able to film the whole races and not just part of them. Maybe you should consider doing it too 😉 Peace and good luck for your future races!! 😎
@@patrickhornacek8593 Great idea! And may I ask what bike model are you riding and is it a hardtail or a full sus? I noticed a lot of hardtails in this race and even one full rigid bike. You were very good as a single speed rider here!! 💪

Great race - specially with the impromptu single speed. Loved the video - you have now become an official training partner! :)
Thanks Carlos! Good luck this season.
Shame picture is not sharper, beautiful race to watch on the trainer otherwise. Nevertheless thanks for posting, you go well! Subbed you as well.
Wow, the fall colors are amazing
This is a great race almost every year for the color change Ben. Beautiful area in Northern Michigan.

Thanks! I do plan to use an external battery pack to capture the entire race going forward. As long as the weather is not too terrible.

I was on my 2018 Specialized Epic FS. Kind of fun running SS on a FS.
