Downhill Rider Races XC

Listen to me complain for ten minutes haha. I was so tired and in a lot of pain. It look most people about 2 hours. It took me almost 3.5 hours! I am not in shape for this lol.

Nobody was crazy enough to do what you did LOL, all disciplines in one weekend. Well done! I am a fellow XC/Enduro one thing I did found out quick the hard way is that the proper tool could make things much easier. Your Geo didn't help you much on the XC side but your travel helped you through the chunk... At any rate (aside from training) that biked punished you, and you finished it, u a beast! Given that the rest of the world (I am from Houston home of the flat lands) sees XC like many here in Houston sees Enduro, Houston should learn how XC is around the US. Going to spread ur video amongst FB H-Town Trails. By the way, I can relate on your pain LOL, I did the MS150 in my XC bike and quickly learn what Gear to Ratio is and why it matter LOL! Once again, congrats and well done!

That's a pretty natural and rough course for XC with those boulders, must have been fun

[@AlexAndersonMTB]

Some of the downhills were very fun!

[@MountainStandardTime]

That was the worst experience ever... Ohh, I won. LOL Congrats! Enjoyed watching!

[@micleabogdan886]

Dude casually ends the video with "ended up winning", after all that talk on how bad he is doing, good sport😅

[@AlexAndersonMTB]

Hahaha I won King of The Mountain. But pretty sure I was almost dead last in the XC 😅

[@micleabogdan886]

@@AlexAndersonMTB that means you crushed it on the other runs, probably slept for like 2 days after 💪

[@AlexAndersonMTB]

@micleabogdan886 hahaha it did take a couple days for my body to recover! 😴

[@matth8924]

I originally found your channel from the destroyed orange DH frame vid, but saw you moved to Minnesota! Welcome! Duluth is a great place to ride.

[@AlexAndersonMTB]

Duluth is a great place to ride!! 🙌

[@fluffywebber7105]

Kudos!!! That looked like a gnarly 25 miles, but you finished the XC and earned KOM honors! True. Grit.

[@AlexAndersonMTB]

It was pretty burly for an xc race for sure!!

[@LoneWanderer905]

Man, those rocky/boulder sections looked amazing, wishing I could be there with my hardtail. Great vid, loved the complaints, I do the exact same, but with no camera which is worse I think lol

[@StewPudasoe]

That looks like a super fun course!

[@AlexAndersonMTB]

The trails were very fun! I do want to go back and check them out while not racing haha

[@StewPudasoe]

Where is this?

[@AlexAndersonMTB]

@StewPudasoe a lot of these trails are at Piedmont trail system in Duluth. The last little bit was spirit mountain.

[@benlukkie]

That XC track would be considered a double if not triple black here in the Netherlands. Good on you!
But uhm, don't do that again 😉

[@AlexAndersonMTB]

They for sure sent us down some black trails!! 😅

[@pepeanza6187]

What frame are you riding?

Shame you don’t have the fitness. XC is only fun when you have the fitness to full on attack the course, that one looked hella fun. It always hurts XC, but looked like you bonked very fast, haha. Well done though, must have smashed the other runs. From an XC guy, don’t give up on XC 😂

[@AlexAndersonMTB]

Haha I bonked so fast! The Enduro the day before took most of my reserves from me 😅
