Haha, I was there- it was the university BUCS xc race which they decided to hold on the old dh line at Moelfre. You don't see me (because I didnt crash :thumbsup: ) but the first guy in the video (on the anthem) is a friend from the club.
Much steeper than it looks in the video!!
edit: i'll add that half of the crashes are probably a result of intense hangovers from the red bull tent the night before!
lol! Right about the 2.47 point a guy in yellow shirt rides off the track, down the hill, goes otb, rolls down the hill with his bike following him (doing a nose wheelie part way); then as he stands up, the bike rolls by and he catches it.
Reminds me all too much of a muddy NORBA national race in WI about 10 years or so ago. It was faster to sit on your a$$ and slide down the hill rather than attempt to ride it...
LOL you crash and theres some guy with a frame banging away in your ear! Surprised someone didnt kick him in the head...
Less front brake and putting your ass way back in the saddle might have helped some....
