This was an interesting one! Before the race I walked a few sections and walked down the SEA line in section 3. I was watching all of the best lines and from where I was standing coming out of the rocks I would see people break right up the mountain. There was no tape and there were clear lines to the upper ridge where it connected beautifully. The hill was pretty gnarly and risk reward made me not take that line the first lap, but I was feeling good the second one so I took it. Third lap came around I took another similar line next to it and as I got to the top a worker was there. He said that I was cutting the track and that it was cheating to go back down. I looked down the hill and said no way and rode a bit off camber until I wasted what I thought was a sufficient amount of time. I'm not sire of the rules but I crossed no yellow tape, i didnt avoid a difficult line instead took the hardest line and I clearly saw a bunch of people taking the line that was already formed. I dont know, I was so bummed out I quit the last lap as we got by the trucks and honestly felt terrible that someone even thought I was cheating. I wish I could say lesson learned but I still believe the line I took was a good one! Things happen on to the next! Great course, great run and was honestly having a blast! Ridge Riders know how to throw an event!
By my times I would've gotten P2 in CVET which would have been huge for me!
