hohoho what a laugh that race was, thanks for posting that vid again :D
i raced it, actually quite steep but definitely not unrideable. ass over the back end and dont lock up the front, or in BUCS terms ‘off the brakes!’
i think most people fell off because theyd never ridden anything that steep before. i noticed a few were coming in way too fast, not realising how little speed they could loose once on the slope hence over the bars. it was also quite lumpy and loose and the the corner at the bottom was off camber a bit.
i thought it was an absolutely amazing course. really hope they dont tone it down for next year.
