Weston beach race 2023 recovering Russell’s burried bike (jcb job)

[@jackking5567]

Amazes me that the beach rescue doesn't carry a garden spade.

I spent 45 minutes trying to dig this bike out. We had to give up in the end

[@crazymtbrider]

Just as well they had a jcb or they're gonna be a feature in Weston supermare 2024

Lmao😂😂😂 why don't the have a strap put it around the handle bars and lift it out with the track hoe. Just saying. And I would have told the rider to get his butt down there and help..! 😅

[@woolery2631]

Seeing how solid it was in there, it might have even bent the chassis. A lot safer to do it the way they did!!

[@slayer6936]

@@woolery2631 I've had to do it. You just put tension on it the start to dig around it and it will pop right out. And it is a steal frame and if you know wear to place the straps you are good to go.

It would pull the bike to pieces if you try lifting it without breaking the suction of the sand

[@misel9411]

It's a Komatsu and did a good job. Please don't insult it.

[@AndrewMeredith-of2sf]

I did thank you

Strop under headstock and lift

He deserves to get it stuck by being daft enough to ride through that puddle🤣
