28:03 WTF with 17C Matt Garcia taking both the course markers and you out for what, an additional 1-2 seconds? You held it together far better than i would have. You're a far better man than me. Great ride as always!
Yeah….wasn’t my best moment or language when that happened 😀 I heard him rev his motor right at the top of the hill as we were descending to the finish chicane. I’m all for enduro etiquette and it works both ways but I wasn’t going to completely come to a stop that close to the finish. I moved to the right of the trail and then went high in the left turn just before the final descent to give him a lane both times. When he didn’t take it, I just went for the finish line because at that point and in that spot I was still racing too. It was kind of a D move to take out the finish chute but hey, that’s racing 😀
Very cool ! Wish I could have taken my 23 XC to do one of these events ! Maybe one day I’ll travel to the US and give one of these a try.
Really enjoy your uploads Mike!
Glad you enjoy them. They’re a great way for me to re-live my rides as well.
Great ride Mike, wish I had your restraint, what a jackwagon, takes you out along with the course markers and then himself.
Stellar
You’re giving me too much credit for restraint 😀

@@ridewithmike962 You were very restrained. Nice ride! I am definitely doing this next year!
Mike do you typically run the black throttle cam or grey on your 250?
Good question. Whichever one is stock (I don't recall which color it is) is the one I have been using.
