Confucius once said "Humility is the solid foundation of all virtues" and you sir are humble AF. Great riding!!!

Nice job out there. Man was it cold. Great job with the edit. Keep em coming.

I was only cold on the transfer sections, but … I did briefly wonder if I was going to freeze to death?

@@eddielawsonjr.8705 yeah. The transfer after gas was a killer for me. Couldn’t feel by hands.

Way to fight the good fight, I bet riding in these challenging winter conditions will pay huge dividends come summer.

I will be excited to have some traction! And soft dirt!

Always the same - all of it. Knees, arms, chest/back, kidney belt. All from Leatt.

@@eddielawsonjr.8705 Woohoo you make me feel smart! I went with the Leatt 6.5 all-in-one upper body protection, and Asterisk for the knee braces. ATGAT is my creedo too - you're tempting fate to have it and not use it.

Even after all the reading about the time structure of enduros, I STOLL do not know anything about the classes, rows, "timing out", etc. Do you have a link to resources or other good videos that explain it? I may have spent 10 hrs in research but feel more confused than ever. I would consider myself a 50+ C class rider. I love your narration. Honest about what you're feeling, and realistic, and out there racing because you enjoy it.

I have looked around but have only found things I find confusing! It’s possible that neither of us is that bright, though? Glad you like the videos - I do love racing 👍👍

Did you race the Gamble Scramble? I did! It was my first race ever. Rediculously difficult. My chain fell off on the second lap, so I finished last - like you always speak of but never do. 😂

Congratulations! That is great news - I hope you had a good time? Not an easy course, you are right. Working on a video now for the Alligator Enduro, and the on to the Gamble Scramble. What class did you run??

@@eddielawsonjr.8705 I ran C Open with the XTrainer. It was so much fun, very challenging and definitely an eye opener on how much more I should be practicing and getting in better shape.

Another great edit. Keep them coming. I ran the same set of Mike Costa rally studs and they worked fine for me. Mine are worn pretty bad so i ran 6 psi out back and 8 in the front. Maybe lower PSI would have helped. Traction was not a problem but figuring out my new ICO Checkmate certainly was.

@eddielawsonjr.8705 2 жыл бұрын

I ran my old long ones - maybe I should run the new rally spikes instead! Sigh. “Next time.”

Nice job not giving up!! Yup, I had the same problem with my camera battery crapping out at the start. I never changed it after gas. The 2nd half was definitely more technical but it was a fun race!

P2 - nice work! I thought the trails were great all day and would love another shot at that race👍. Why did our go pros work at 24 degrees but not 16 degrees? Physics, no doubt.

@@eddielawsonjr.8705 Thanks! Yep, the trails were perfect in that they stayed frozen all day. I had the same battery issue at last years Snow Run. I only managed about 15min of video. But it was 5° at the start that day so I wasn’t surprised.

@eddielawsonjr.8705 2 жыл бұрын

I did last years and got tons of footage. But my race was so discouraging I decided not to do a video! Ha! I did the first section twice because I went left at the end, instead of right to the parking lot. Just to give you an idea of how the day went? Although … I was never cold that whole day!
