Thanks! Here’s the link to that ride… strava.app.link/5ljjXVS3Krb I’m not sure if that works but it’s worth a try haha! These races are fun and the environment is even better when there! Games, food, bike booths! Thanks for watching!

@@rustic.media_youtube wow! U raced with a Capra!

[@rustic.media_youtube]

Haha ya 🤣! It wasn’t bad. Just heavy and squishy lol!

[@TheHooniverse]

Course seems pretty chill, I think I'm going to have to enter one of these

[@MTBr-of-SoCal]

Awesome, thanks. I'm on the fence for this upcoming Jan 29 race. While I ride often and for years, I don't usually do 10 miles non stop. Do you think I should start off in the Beginner class?

[@rustic.media_youtube]

Hi! If you’ve never raced before or just don’t feel ready, I’d go with beginners and see how it feels. That’s what I did. It actually goes by quick! Thanks for watching!

[@MTBr-of-SoCal]

@@rustic.media_youtube BTW, do you know how many miles is the Beginner Men's 40 - 49 age? I see it says 8 - 10 miles at 2 laps, but I hear otherwise.

[@rustic.media_youtube]

Hey! Sorry I don’t know for sure. They like to change up the course every week, so it varies. My guess is that it will be around 9 miles 🤷‍♂️. Either way those couple miles go by fast. Good luck! 🍀

It DOES look fun! Great video!

[@chriserrecart446]

Thanks for the video! Registered to do tomorrow nights race and had no idea what the course looked like…this makes me feel way more prepared.

[@rustic.media_youtube]

Hi! I’m glad you enjoyed it! Maybe I’ll see you there!

[@arlenejohnson4569]

Thank you for sharing this! I'm registered to race my very first MTB race on August 3rd (Women's 45+) and feel more confident in what to expect.

[@rustic.media_youtube]

Awesome! Thanks for watching! I posted a video on an updated version of the course since they changed it a bit. The overall atmosphere there is awesome too! 👍🏻

[@MTBMOR]

Are you racing again this year?

[@rustic.media_youtube]

I thought about it but I’ve been really busy lately. Are you? It sounds super fun!

[@MTBMOR]

@@rustic.media_youtube Yes, I just uploaded the video from race 1

[@aydenjackson6871]
