- 250 C 20+. One of the best tracks I have ridden this year. I liked how they had some reall fast woods, an MX track with small doubles, one real nice big hill climb and a little enduro section thrown in there. Really was a great race. I finshed 6th in my class. 250SXF.
This looks like a awesome track too. ride. Love the power of that KTM. Love the 300 XC its light and all the power you need for the woods. Well done skinny Skinch.
This was a very fun course! beleive it or not this is a really popular trail riding place normally they just run one or two hare scrambles a year on it. its VERY technical with lots of hills and rocks and single track but for the race they picked mostly the easy trails which was a bummer. it was super fast and super fun though.
Man that course looks so fun, mat be the funnest looking one I have seen on your vids.
Thanks for the footage.
I love brushy mountain. awesome place to ride. this track did not give a great layout of what MOST of the trails at brushy are though. it has some really serious technical single track that Is to die for.
@@SkinnySkinch That totally looks like a place worth traveling to!
I assume there would be camping somewhere near? Maybe I'll throw it on the list of dream spots.
Just got back last week from meeting Tim from forty times around for a ride in Moab Utah area and had a blast.
He rides a GS 1200 so it was little less technical but we got some good video in Valley of the Gods I threw up this week .
our mountains still have snow and it is killing me .......
you don't need rear brakes on a damn 4 stroke.
LOL yeah true. I sucked pretty bad back in this video
What did they do with all the rocks? LOL Every time I have been up there riding it has been a rock festival LOL
huskerider yeah trust me they still there lol the hare scramble has beginners so the course is mostly the ATV trails there unfortunately. Watch “Battle of the GOATS” videos you’ll see the rocks
@@SkinnySkinch Watching it now...Holy Hell!!
I’m the one you pass at 58:00 my brakes were going in and out too. #377 good race! The arm pump was real
Annie Bean haha nice! Man that was a fun race I loved it!
good video bro! im the one that pass you at the 3:10 mark on my new 2018 yz450
Hahaha holy shit man that was such a sick pass lol. No clue how you saved it. What class you in? Did you win ur class?
im in your class lol
I did not do good! I had my front tire blow out on me middle of last lap and manage to get to the finish line but I got 12 and race number is 725! What your race number? hope to see you out on 7/08 at Lost valley
Damn man thats brutal. You were flyin! My numbers on my bike are 88J from the Virginia series I think my NCHSA number is 717. Do you race any of the other series? Ive been going almost every weekend to VCHSS Mideast or NCHSA whichever I can make it to I go. Just trying to get some seat time and get my stamina up im old and fat
Enjoyed this video too! That 4t sounds good too. What percent of the time would you say you are standing vs. sitting? Any particular strategies?
I've got a theory on you chasing other riders. You are definitely fast when you are chasing, but my theory is that it has you looking farther down the trail which gives you more time to react to what is coming, which makes you more comfortable and faster. Just a thought.
I think you've got the right idea for stamina. It's pacing yourself. Conserving energy when and where you can. Use short bursts of energy when you need it. I train in martial arts and have found this strategy to really work during our testings. My last one one was this past weekend. I've also found grapes to be a perfect pre test food. It gives you fluids and natural sugars for energy.
I've been binge watching your videos, as I'm sure you've noticed. I'm taking great inspiration from them. It's got me itching to try again. Our next race is in 2 weeks. Not soon enough!!
I tend to stand a lot. as far as percent I dunno maybe 80% of my race?? I have recently been told that I shouldn't be standing as much as possible. I hear so many different things its hard to know whats right or wrong. The one thing I will say is a LOT of the faster guys that I see pass me are sitting down.
my personal opinion I feel safer when I am standing when the terrain is rough. If it is butter smooth, sitting is great. The other benefit I get from standing is the rough course doesn't physically beat me up as much when I am standing bc my legs are an extension of the bike suspension. I chug water during the races and I hate the feeling of the water bouncing around in my stomach while I am sitting on the bike, and my bike has butter smooth soft suspension. Now my legs will get more tired, but I am an out of shape old man and I can stand no problems for most of the 1.5-2 hour race so a non issue really.
any corner that has a nice rut or berm that you can rail absolutely sit youll be able to take the corner at a higher speed. I just dont ride motocross tracks and the singletrack woods we ride really does not have smooth corners with ruts or berms. its just not a thing out in the woods so the speeds I am going I can take most turns while standing.
in my videos you can tell if I am standing or sitting by if you can see my handlebars or not. if I am standing you can usually only see the front half of my front fender and when sitting you can see my entire bar setup. if I happen to look down while standing youll notice brief moments of visual on the bars but not for long.
Hope this helps
I really appreciate you taking the time to check out so many vids. Like I said before I was kind of surprised when so many people started watching my vids. Literally 6 months ago if I posted a video I would get maybe 50 views in the first month. the video I posted on Sunday has almost 1,500 in like 2 days. Very cool so many people are watching and I dont get all that many thumbs downs either haha.
grapes I had no idea. I love them and can eat those no problem before a race. gonna try that this Sunday in addition to the many other things ive been told to try
Sasquatch @109.11
lmao where>??? I just rewatched that section like 6 times an I can't see him hahaha
@@SkinnySkinch Yeh, he's a master of camo!
