Amateur enduro. Honestly just go do it. No videos can prepare you for the stress before race. You realize your preride days were nothing like the actual race day, you will make a lot of mistakes, you will find that the snack you packed wasn't nearly enough... but you know what? You will be better the next time you go!

are there any events for people who are unfit, have never raced and dont spend that much time on a bike but fancy a go, like an enduro taster ?

Just raced north mountain enduro in Darrington, WA. This was my first enduro and worst part I never rode black diamond's before. About 1 min into first stage I realized I'm not ready for the gnarl. Came in last in my group but I finished all of it. This gives me hope I can improve for the next year, hopefully.

You finished it bud, that is an achievement especially since you never rode black diamonds before

@mattgraves3709 Жыл бұрын

Oh my gosh, that's huge! Especially considering that you hadn't ridden that before!! Nicely done man. Black diamonds are probably much different in your part of the world also... Black diamonds here in Michigan aren't really anything but in the Pacific Northwest, however I could just imagine. Nicely done man!

Some really good points on making sure the bike is the best it can be. Could we have some tips on making sure the rider is also in good condition. Could we have a part 2 focusing on training. What type of drills could we incorporate into the weekend rides to prep for a race. Thanks!

Only raced XC up to now. Maybe filling up lost pedals pins before the race might be a good idea.

@Bakerking3 2 жыл бұрын

@@ApexHerbivore why not lol? The DH and stage 1 are the same course and at least according to Strava I'm decently quick on my HT for it (7th best time). Never raced before so I'm doing both. It's my home DH park and I've ridden there every weekend this summer. At least Enduro has a HT category but for DH I was smoking people in practice Saturday so we'll see.

@ApexHerbivore 2 жыл бұрын

@@Bakerking3 Fair play! I just can't help wonder if you'd be even faster on a bike that was designed for the purpose. Not hating on HT, just big fan of suspension since I hurt my back! Good luck to you :)

Why is it that the “big” professional enduro racers don’t seem to be wearing packs? It seems like all they do is the downhill portion; I rarely see any footage of climbing.
