    Well done matt! 👊
    Enduro is so tough, I think a lot don't realise just how hardcore it is, few could do what you just did on a full EWS course. Essentially racing dh whilst exhausted after only (normally) one practise run, it really pushes the limits of rider and bike. Much respect. I'll stick to the local enduro races, 2-4 minute stages with 20 minute climbs, and still takes me a week to recover from an event!
