My heart rate went through the roof watching you descend that mountain bike trail. Impressive bike handling. I would have crashed within a few seconds haha! Impressive 2nd place as well on the segment!

haha, glad i went with the chest mount that day, deff feels more immersive!! i have my eyes set on the KOM this week 😉

[@bosco2814]

I crashed last SAT...feeling scary when I watch your descend

[@BikeBodyMind]

glad the Stages is working again. Kudos for getting the road bike a little dirty. A little sense of adventure is in part why we all ride I feel. Sometimes the hefty cost of tires and other components makes us forget that :o)

That was good going on a road bike on those rocky paths 👍

[@VeloVegan]

What tyres you using? I use 23mm but just stuck some 25mm on my tcr after two rides I can honestly say 25's FTW! Although I'll wear out my 23's on my other bike before replacement nice vid

[@VeloVegan]

yeah 25s all the way bro, think gonna try sticking some 28s on this bike after these if clearance allows!! thanks!

glad you didn't hurt yourself! sometimes the slow ones hurt the most because you land hard and don't skid!
