Epic Race. The mastermind Burke Swindlehurst and friend has put together a brutal course for sure.

[@VeloVegan]

cheers! yeah the course is savage on its own but for me the altitude factor just makes it so much worse.

[@BikeBodyMind]

Amazing!

You are welcome! Great job on the video footage- I especially like the drone footage from the muddy corner we drove to. Sorry about the 3 hour late arrival-long story but that was my fault! - Cherie :)

[@VeloVegan]

[@VeloVegan]

Ah cheers mate, appreciate it! They're from a company called ridge supply, its all about the sock game ;)

[@karlstine2065]

Too much of your BS not enough riding.

[@carlosflanders518]

Way too long. A 12-15 min edit would have been much better.
