Terrahawk fitted a camera to his fork and did a lap.
"The Chin" is at 5 minutes. Jumps at 7 minutes.
Why's it in 'tallscreen'? 😐
Why's it in 'tallscreen'?
cos the camera was mounted at 90 degrees.
Thanks for the feedback though
It's our USP. We don't do anything like anyone else.
[s]Either that or he mounted it on the bike at 90°.[/s]
To quote John Belushi "BURP!... Why not?"
I like the speed induced vibration out of the field on the way to "The Chin". You must have been shifting! 😉
That cam is awful
I'm gutted that you don't like it. No, really. I am.
Can we have a traffic light at the top of the chin in favour of none-mincers?

Riding The Chin is compulsory this time.
10 year olds don't have to ride The Chin.
Everyone else is going down it either on the bike, under the bike or on their arses 10 yards in front of the bike.
Terra; you just come off the fags or something? Don't be so sensitive, petal.
It's just a bit difficult to watch, is all. Just saying, like.
Other than that, it looks good! 😀
8m30s is a new bit. Our very own tribute to the infamous Simon Fell. We call it Simon The Bastard because it is. 😀
"The chin" looks technical....Not.
Bloody big jumps too, how do you boys do it?!

are you entering, flo?
Camera position gives you a false sense of hope. 20m long 45° mud trench full of roots.
The photpgraphers turn up there with their deck chairs as it is a favourite spot.
Flow, you're completely missing the point.
The Chin is a 20 yard steep section of foot deep mud, broken limbs, blubbing CXers and broken dreams.
And then a 3 foot deep trench of mud, sweat, tears and blood at the bottom.
...and ice.
When I rode it last year there was a stray spade attached to a Tod bike builder in it too.
Wooooo, scary stuff.
Flo, see you on Feb 4th. If you can ride it 10 times in the race I'll give you your money back.
Does anyone know flow (I'm only assuming he has friends).Could they slap/punch him? Taaa

aargh you beat me to it!
(except I was going to say 3 times)
OK 3.
We'll have to have a FloCam.
SufferCam?
[smoke up your ass]It is also worth pointing out that the camera bike pilot has won a place at the Endurance World Championships next year so he tends to make things look easy [/smoke up your ass]
Right. I'm off to iron a shirt.
I doubt I would be able to ride that course once boys, let alone three times. Way too tough for me.
Cheeky Monkey 😉
So what is it then, a cyclo-cross race?
Cyclo cross / MTB / Grifter whatever. We had a no tandems or unicycles rule but TJ threatened to sign up, so now it is just no unicycles.
I've edited out the really horrible bits. We want people to sign up, not run away. My shit camera also has a habit of 'flattening' out the terrain, if you know what I mean.
So, Flo. How about it? You're local aren't you?
You can even come on a preview ride (sometime) next month.
Florence, you're right, it does look easy that course.
So, I'm going to ride a vintage fixed gear road bike to even it up a bit.
Pussies..!
In in the South Terra, good luck with the race though.
Florence
