Great series! XC racing is something I'm really wanting to get into, and I had so many questions. Started with the "Everything you need to know about XC" video, and moved right into the Moab Rocks series. You made it look very attainable. Great content! Thanks! You guys are awesome!
This little series is turning out beyond amazing. The duo format makes for a really entertaining ride to watch, plus I love watching your interactions, that's what I call a team!! The whole "house/talking head/interview" thing with everyone else at the house is amazing. You guys have really reached an incredible level with your storytelling over this many videos! Also, I've been following you for a loooong time, and I don't think I'd ever seen both of you looking this happy mid-race it's really refreshing to see you both enjoying a race this much! The lack (or reduction) of pressure and tension makes you have more fun and it shows, keep going in that direction! There's no better way to be more awesome than to be 'more happy'.
Congratulations Syd, on the 3rd place! Very cool! And congratulations to you and Macky for keeping it together! Also: a Happy Big Birthday to Jim! 67 is not bad!
Podium finishes, hard work & always unexpected. Arm warmers, Clausen pickles and I too have Dad's hulk green Pivot! Good work you guys against top competition!

Congrats Syd... third is awsome 🤘 Love this type of video, fun to follow you and the other riders 👍 Looking forward to watch Brians race videos when he post them!
Congrats Syd. I would love to ride in the snow! That said I'd probably freeze to death, living here in south east Queensland. Similar climate to southern California, or Florida.
Well done Syd! total domination really. A boozer to be sure! You guys ride together a lot obviously, but in race conditions, taking turns leading, do you feel you are able to improve off each other watching? Must be interesting to see the different lines and ideas unfold.
After the slow pass at 5:10 I was thinking Mackey should lead to clear the path, and then apparently you’d already thought of that since it seemed to work at 6:20. Nice strategery!

My kids enjoyed Dino Flow plenty a couple of weeks ago. So there! 😜 Then again, I prefer to take trail advice from people who are at least out of elementary school.
My FTP is 245~248 (depending on the day) and I know that because I do Plan 7 training for my high school team racing and their is a screen that displays everyone’s FTP. Aiming for 267 before my seasons start 🤞
We are having some issues with the auto focus making noises on our camera (getting it warrantied now 😫) so it's probably thay but like it's also possible one of our housemates was snoring
Thinking about racing Moab Rocks 2020? Here's your chance to save $50! Just use code 'sydandmacky' at checkout and get stoked!
CONGRATS SYD! Really awesome effort for the stage. It'd make me feel a bit better if Macky's heart rate ever went above 120 and was panting!
Yeah it's so annoying!!! Hahaha
Awesome for you too! You finished in front of people!
I'm not sure what it is but I'm really enjoying this, I think it's the Duo aspect, loving it.
Love the interviews- pre/post! It brings a new level of camaraderie!
Way to go Syd! Podium for Syd and mild frostbite for Macky.
😬
Great ride you two!! Syd didnt want Macky to freeze to death, so she put the hammer down!
Syd is a solid athlete. She's fun to watch and inspirational. Hard winter training pays off.
Awesome job on the editing. . And congrats to Syd for making podium !

Great job! I think I might give it a shot next year!
go Syd!!!
Dad is cool!
Get Specialized Purist bottles, I've had one fall off the truck many times even at speed totally still using it!
Strong ride..
Epic journey! Better to be cold then overheating for sure. I bet Macky burned a million calories on that race.
bend your plates, get that aero advantage!!

3rd place, nice!!!
+1 for the metrics!

What percentage were riding hard tails? Hard to tell from video, but terrain looks like it could go either way.
Very few. Most people were on full suspension bikes of various travel. Stay tuned for a bike check Friday!
What’s in your drink bottle requiring you to shake it up? at approx minute 5 in the video..
Technically you don't have to shake it, but I like to. It's Skratch Passion Fruit Active Hydration.
Your arms were the color of your gloves
Haha! Pretty much!
By the Way...Hey! BK Common Man!!! u again??
Convince me that someone is not snoring @ 15:40
We are having some issues with the auto focus making noises on our camera (getting it warrantied now 😫) so it's probably thay but like it's also possible one of our housemates was snoring
