This trail was so hard this year. Even the second part, which is supposed to be easier. I did what I could, honestly. But it made feel like a beginner.
Great job! I've watched a few of your videos without comment but I just wanted to say that as a person who's been riding for 20 years it's not lost on me that this requires a tremendous amount of fitness but also mental toughness; especially when you're 80% of the way through a state and then get hit with, even a small, climb. Again, great job. Oh, am I the only one who's really never seen JBAR completely dry?
@glpf5 I sincerely appreciate your comments. There is always so much going on behind the scene that is not captured on camera, especially mentally. At the same time, what makes the ESC races great is the support between racers, young or old ones like us. We all motivate each other through the challenge.
Hé bien ! comment ne pas chuter sur un tel parcours avec toutes ces rocailles, je crois que c'est le plus difficile que j'ai pu visionner. Mais bravo pour la place sur le podium ! Jolie photo de fin 😁
Congrats on the Stage 2 win and P3!!!
Hi Todd, I cheated. We were only 3 Masters... And Stephane and Joe are generally much faster than me. They crushed all the other stages.
Amazing job on such a hard race!
Nice work. J-bar looks relentless.

Me too I crashed so hard on stage 2 my shoulder still hurts from it
Hope you feel better soon. I had a few bruises too after this race.
Did you get your handlebars out of alignment after fall on J bar? Nice race, well done.
yes, totally. But I only found out when I finished the Stage. I was so focused on the trail that I didn't even noticed immediately.
