Did this race last weekend....holy ballrash that was rad! Course was super fun and not your typical XC course, Tippie was awesome, locals were great, the big bacon cheese burger was d-lish and I've already forgot the pain....wait a second, I totally remember the pain now!

It's by Tame Impala from their album lonerisim.... can't think what it's called though, it will be one of these: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-S42EsIDXpM

This race looks awesome! I'm too lazy to ride XC lol give me 180mm and a fall line instead, but I like seeing it get the coverage it deserves. Good XC riders are just as legit as gravity rippers. They're willing to suffer and ride tech with a 69-70HTA, sky high seat, and an inch or two of travel.

I road this course last year a week or so before the event and it was everything it looks like here. I started counting the switchbacks then somewhere after 30-50 of them I lost focus on the counting and was absorbed in the views of the Pemberton Valley. Believe them when they say over 100 switchbacks.

Brad Holmes impeccable work! The N50 is clearly what MTBING is about. Protect this event and others like it they are becoming a rarity indeed. Hat off to BT, best man for the job.

SO impressed with these guys, I've ridden down these trails on a full DH and scared myself, how they manage on xc 29ers without death is beyond me...

Ugh...you try riding with style with your saddle sky high and when you are fatigued beyond belief.
