 'its really slick' he says, as he blasts every turn and transition faster than I ever have on hero dirt

 It was a weird slick that just caused vagueness in the turns, sketched me out a bit

 There must be something wrong with his camera. When I look at my videos they seem at 0.5 speed compared to how they feel. This video seems like x2 at least

 Good job the racers are putting out some footage as not seeing much from the organisers.

 I've read lots on the poor coverage....its a shame for sure especially with it being round 1 after a long winter....

 @JesseMelamed:
Yeah I get that now.
Really missed the preview show, coverage of the pro stage and any form of live timing throughout the race.
I totally get the difficulty of covering the race but for those of who avidly follow the sport it would have been nice for a bit more coverage over the weekend.
I guess we have been spoilt in the past by Rick and the team.

 Can any locals tell me the name of that trail for my return trip in scotland in september please. The bottom part looks like lone wolf but is the top section new?

 It's called Dances with Wolves. There is a new start line from the trees which has been constructed for this. You used to have to traverse from lone wolf but it's now one of the best tracks in the Valley!

 Having raced this yesterday in the 100 I can say this made me slightly scared watching it. Best of luck today. You're in my pinkbike team so no pressure Wink

 Jesse, are we really supposed to believe you're hitting all those stump gaps at the bottom blind on your first run? Really?

 Yes, it's my talent.
