[@christoffvandriessche3349]

Congratulations on your podium! The trails look great!

[@LauraJaneWeeTamMTB]

Thanks! They’re amazing trails and so many!

[@leedove7255]

Well done. I remember the 1st Dunkeld which was nothing like it is today, tame with uphills. Those are great trails for racing on.

[@LauraJaneWeeTamMTB]

Thanks! Oh wow sounds like it’s changed massively. They’re amazing race trails. Enjoyed it so much!

[@bentbitz1]

If they ever introduce cycling on the Moon I reckon you two will be well ready for it. I'm guessing that you both must sleep well after a weekend like that!

[@LauraJaneWeeTamMTB]

Hehe yeah ready for anything after this race! Definitely. Took most of the week to recover 😂

[@fillfreakin2245]

Mucky conditions are extra exhausting to pedal in - hard work when you're doing 30-50km. Then the wet mud makes everything extra technical. Riding that full gas makes doing it injury free a minor miracle. Only good thing is that you rode some of those trails not too long ago, if I'm correct. Well done!

[@LauraJaneWeeTamMTB]

Totally. So much resistance and the bike is dancing all over the place. Was tough! Yeah most of the trails i had ridden so only a few were real surprises thankfully! Thanks!

[@johnpowell360]

Bit of a backhanded compliment that wasn't really needed she did brilliant for the conditions, doing the trails recently gives a bit of an advantage but realistically remembering that amount of track is difficult and conditions can make trails completely different. I would say doing it without an injury is more than a minor miracle as well. Well done Laura amazing effort.

[@fillfreakin2245]

@@johnpowell360 I'm not sure why it's a backhanded compliment?!? I've seen some of those trails exactly once before - from her video a while back. If I can remember some of the sections, I'm sure she can too, having ridden them and then reviewed the footage. I'm aware of how conditions change things, but if you don't understand how previous experience helps, then you must not ride much.

[@johnpowell360]

Maybe you just phrased it in a way I interpreted wrong however, saying something is a "minor miracle" is pretty backhanded and saying "only good thing" is she has done the before is the same. I never said having riding them before wouldn't help and knowing a route is indeed vital to getting better times just a bit crap to try and put someone down by saying you've done it before so it was easier for you which is pretty much what you said in different words. How often I ride has nothing to do with it as I mentioned that it is an advantage but hey maybe you need to point out things like someone having riden a trail before and low balling the skill it takes to not have an injury in those conditions that to make yourself feel superior

[@fillfreakin2245]

@@johnpowell360 wow.

[@StoneAgeProductionsAdventure]

I was thinking about taking part in Dunkeld endro this year but due to the pish weather I've not been bike out on my bike much this year yet. Maybe next year...

[@LauraJaneWeeTamMTB]

Fair! It’s quite early on in the season and it’s been so wet these last months! Apparently this is the final year but I’m hoping not!

[@StoneAgeProductionsAdventure]

@@LauraJaneWeeTamMTB Oh what!? Why are they stopping it, do you know? You did well btw

[@arunl8778]

Looks amazing ! does anyone know if its going ahead for 2024 ?

[@LauraJaneWeeTamMTB]

It was a super race. They said last year was the final one sadly. Hoping it will be run as a location in another series sometime!

[@arunl8778]

Yes the trails looked so good . Fingers crossed@@LauraJaneWeeTamMTB

[@tomowen6108]

Some of the noises you are making on stage 6 has just made my wife ask if I'm watching porn??!! 😂 fair play guys, great content, great racing.

[@LauraJaneWeeTamMTB]

🤣 haha when I was editing the footage I was actually thinking FS that sounds pretty dodgy 😂 oh well! Cheers it was some race!
