  • Leaving plenty of room for improvement for next year, but very satisfied with my first time racing!
    During the race I had no clue how far at the front or back I was, so I just tried to finish. Ended up placing 17th out of 320 and third in the under 30 category!

    I appreciate this video because it shows how much easier it is to make mistakes when you are fatigued. It seems more real than some of the pro videos. They are more practiced at cleaning the camera lens. Great job, and terrific race.

    In the mud, even with the fall and technical problems, still an excellent downhiller. Work on the physical condition for climbing and next year it's TOP 10.

    Holy moly, that's what I call "Hardcore Downhill " 💪👊🍺

    Bad strategy at minute 4:00 I think you wasted several minutes crossing through the snow instead of staying on the other side of the trail.

    • @ErikPruijssen
      @ErikPruijssen  Месяц назад +1

      Not getting stuck behind a rider in front of me was the main idea, but went a little too far to the right. But definitely agree not the most optimal strategy.

      @@ErikPruijssen I watch quite few videos of thoses races. And yes, it's true that some speak a few words in french. But the french riders also understand most of the time the few words in english. So i don't know. It's up to you. With time it will come eventually if you do this race years after years.
