  • Round 2 of the Gorrick MTB XC Spring Classic and it was another amazing course at Highland Farm, Area 51 in Frimley Green. A full gas and extremely punchy course, from start to finish. With this being the first time I have stepped up to the 'Expert' category, I have learnt a lot that I can take forward into my next race at the Southern XC and hopefully keep pushing on and improving on my results.
    I hope you enjoyed the on-board race footage, and please do Like & subscribe to follow the journey!

    Brother you totally NAILED this video. The first lap was possibly the best first person amateur XC footage ever. It was excellent. That course was amazing. Your play by play commentary was entertaining and kept me engaged 👍👍👍

    Great video and commentary. And a good strong ride as well. It well illustrates how twisty Area 51 is and how hard it can be to ride over there on non-race days and try and follow a race course once the markers are removed post race. Relentles riding with not a much chance to get any relief. Nice one 👍

    Great Video G. It looks sooo flat but its NOT. My legs can tell you that after my grand vets performance and only 3 laps. Good luck at the Southerns xc Round 1 at the basin. Looks like a huge turn out in most cats. I've got to miss R one but will back for round 2. Cheers 🍻

    Great effort and footage. I'm keen to try XC but am a complete novice. Did go over Hadleigh Park Olympic Course (round the corner) in the summer but fell in to the only rose bush on the course. Looked like i'd been mauled by a tiger. Are you GoPro10ing it camera wise?

    @aruhisonokoto Год назад +2

    Wow, great job hammering in Expert. That's real racing. Interesting course. Is that a common course? I'm used to seeing longer climbs, like 5-10 minute climbs, even longer for races at ski resorts in the summer. Looked like a real lung burner.

    • @GiorgioCoppolaCycling
      @GiorgioCoppolaCycling  Год назад

      Yeah pretty common course, we hardly have any climbs around us… so a lot tends to be punchy and short or fire road drags.
      This one certainly gets the lungs fired up though 😅
