Good to see you dude, glad I could keep the airbag open for you to have a blast, sorry I had to run off and sort out the pump track championship! That lap time was pretty impressive, Shame you didn’t come back for the finals though. I’m taking the track and airbag to Malverns too so if you’re going we will have a catch up there!

Great video Tom and Kara and a big congratulations on your enduro race. Looks a heap of fun. But next one I think you should bring your goggles with you to keep the mud out of your eyes because it ain’t fun getting mud in your eyes. So looking forward to seeing you both in the next video

Haha welcome to mountain biking in Yorkshire. Never expected to see you & Kara compete in Ard Rock. Nice one Phil 😆👊🏽

A different sort of video from you Tom, great really enjoyed watching it. I thought Kara pretty damn brave to take that on. Well done Kara.

You should have tried it in the conditions in the Sunday lol !!! It’s gnarly for sure as the bruise on my leg shows. Nice to see you both there supporting 👍👍

Well done Tom you were passing bikes left right and centre same to cara well done feel even attempting to do that I hope you enjoyed it as much as Tom I bet he's still smiling now 😂😅

@junka1975 11 ай бұрын

At least Tom lives up to the expression "Here's mud in your eye!" He will be able to tell you exactly how that feels. Good on Kara for having a go. I wonder what it would be like for other riders having Tom blast past them? I think they would probably say woah where did he come from? Oh wait it's Tom Cardy, that's cool.

Mad props for hitting Ard Rock blind without research, but also...WTF 😅 Lunatic!!! This aint the South 😂 I know Kara said on her channel she wants to do all 7 stages next year but I'd reccomend some more Northern Exposure first 😅. Boltby Bash is a great little 5 stage enduro in the North York Moors (ran by the same people I believe) but is much more chill and doesn't take itself too seriously, so its a fun event for people who want to challenged but aren't super salty about time (pick a later start time if you want to avoid the try hards 😊).

You should go to Dalby forest. 25miles of red xc runs.Would be awesome on an ebike.There's a couple of black runs and off piste stuff.I think they used to have the xc world champs there at one point.

@ghalltn6 11 ай бұрын

Did you make that left drop and turn round the tree on Stage 1, you cut it just in time... :-) Sunday was carnage with heavy rain all night and day. Question? Do you think the juice is worth the squeeze on a non E bike? Was lucky enough to see you do that air bag jump.

Now then Mr Cardy did you get excluded or a time penalty for not staying within the track at 9:31 ? Or do those flags have a different meaning to the taped sections?

Where did you place also?

@TREVONBACH 11 ай бұрын

Kara how awesome to see u ride. Unless all those guys screaming at you to move got first, shame on them. Forget Tom... LOL Phil did it right. Pass with respect. To those with higher skillsets you started with a parental push too. I saw Frendan Barraclough scream at a younger rider on film once and lost all kind of respect for him. He was a kid once. There are quarter pipes those old screamers wouldnt touch and Kara takes like nothing so... R E S P E C T.

@@teamdoa MTB races rely heavily on sponsorships. I'm sure the races had zero issue with it. 😉

@dvs620 Ай бұрын

@@teamdoa Those races use sponsors to pay to put in the event. He's probably invited by the race to participate on account that he's a rider for one (or more) of their sponsors. They want to publicity his channel would bring. Or, his sponsors asked the race if he could participate as a condition for his sponsorship. Like how some events use wildcards to get people in that normally wouldn't qualify.
