SILVER KINGS HARD ENDURO BRONZE RACE 2023

Overall for the bronze loop I finished 41st. Thank you inside enduro and the US hard enduro staff for a fantastic course, they stepped it up with a few features to really challenge you in the bronze loop this year. I was able to record almost a full lap before my gopro flipped up to the sky, showing only sky and snot. IRC JX8 made me feel like a hero out there on the tough stuff.

Snapped my clutch perch on that first offcamber hillclimb that everyone was all spread out on, was like 10 feet from the top. Got it re taped and zip tied but made rest of race suck. Definitely excited for next year already.

Did the same damn thing after my gopro died. My trailbound rubber strap made it easy to do 2 wraps around it and hold it in place.

[@GrayRidesEnduro]

i did the same damn thing lol! I guess we all broke it

[@mikelowry007]

My first one ever! Tossed it straight up over a log and she decided to only land on the shifter and perch. 10/10 in my book. 😂

[@1down5up_enduro]

Not to be that guy, but it shows you finished 52nd, not 41st. Unless i am looking at wrong standings. Anyways, great riding! I was curious how the bronze class would look.

[@mikelowry007]

I was 41st in B class. That was what i was counting when i looked at results. 52nd in bronze overall. I’ll take either one. Still walked away with a fantastic experience, and my skills are way up from a year ago at Donner. :)

@@mikelowry007 nice, nice, are you going Donner this year?

[@mikelowry007]

@@1down5up_enduro that is 100% the plan. Im stoked to hit it again!

[@ericsoutdooradventures2524]

I was Sherco!! 😂

[@mikelowry007]

Ah dude. I knew i messed up tailing you so close. Glad i didn’t take you out or your fender!

[@thesmoness]

Thinking about coming to this next year and I was curious between Bronze and Silver difficulty. Where did you end up in Bronze?

[@mikelowry007]

I finished in the top half of the field in either bronze or in B class. Im a slower trail rider but fairly good at technical riding, and also decent at suffering for hours. It was really required this year to pivot turn to complete the Bronze loop. They also had an easier split for IRON class. Silver is where i need to go, i want to be really challenged and suffer so ill step up to A class next year, and for Donner. If you want only some suffering. Bronze was a very fun time and i have no regret competing there this year.
