Amazed that he can so calmly talk through it. I'd be in floods of tears screaming.

Banzai!!

Good luck to all the riders brave enough to take it on, especially fellow Surrey boy and Pivot rider Bernard Kerr. Go Bernard!

I was reading the rider list on the STW article wondering if Greg had hit his head or something till I spotted in commentary!! Hope it dries out for them!!

I’d die trying. If I tried which I’d be too scared to. Even more mental watching it in the flesh so to speak.

The worst bits look like the rocky sections either side of the road gap. The rest looks relatively easy for a pro, hit the jumps fast enough and over you will go.  According to the stats the long jumps are still shorter than those on the motorway section at Fort Bill

Calling it the end of season race is a bit sharp. Its and invitational PR show rather than a race. It would appear that most of the top 20 either werent invited or chose not to turn up

This is infuriating. Everything I’d seen said the live broadcast was on Sunday. But the actual race happened on Saturday, the results are out (and all over social media) and the “live” broadcast on Sunday isn’t actually live. How bloody stupid!

Got to admit I have entered seen anything about the results in social media prior to me watching the event earlier on red bull TV.  Maybe they switched the days due to shit weather or something?  I'm just confused as to why ratboy didn't race.  What happened to Craig Evans?

“The rest looks relatively easy for a pro, hit the jumps fast enough and over you will go.”

So easy that Greg Minnaar spent almost an hour eyeing up the road gap (in better conditions) before deciding not to hit it...

My reading of it is that the jumps are huge and require a lot of mental discipline but it’s the technical bits in between that make the difference between winning and losing...

Respect to everyone who took part!
