  • Wild Bill Sprint Enduro at Battle Creek Motorcycle Club for the season finale was a blast! The race was to tests consisting of a 4-mile Cross Test and a 4-Enduro Test ran 4 times a piece. I love every minute of this sprint enduro , have a look in 4K.

    This video slipped by me. Looked like a fun race, the moto track looked super fun! I've been to battle creek probably about 30 years ago racing motocross. Good job!

    Was on the fence on whether to come up there or go to NC to race that weekend. My wife and I went to NC (we're from PA). I just had an urge to race after 12 years. Haven't ever done a sprint enduro before. Tests looked fun. Nice job!

    You went over top of me on the bridge and made the pass on me there like you said in voice over

      You can find them on the District14 website. The race season is over now but they will have the 2023 season up shortly. Definitely try it they’re a blast!

    great riding, your bike is set up nice, really allows you to hold line and charge ahead. Felt like mine was deflecting too much. Regardless, super fun time, good hanging out again

    • @Captain250FX
      @Captain250FX  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That was a great time and nice to finally see you again! Tomorrow I’ll have a short 5 minute video from my GoPro on my rear fender, your in the video.

    Do you know the name of the mx track that part of the race took place on?
    This looks alot of fun. I'm considering trying out a sprint Enduro event like this next year!

    • @Captain250FX

      Yes, this was at Battle Creek MX in Battle Creek, Michigan.

    Is it an average time of the 4 runs or your best time?

    • @Captain250FX
      @Captain250FX  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      All your runs combined. Lowest total time is what you want.

    What class are you racing in next year? I’ve been considering racing hare scrambles.

    • @Captain250FX
      @Captain250FX  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’m going B40 next year. If I were you I would race hare Scramble’s and try sprint enduro format! If your like me you get addicted quickly it’s more about the friendships you’ll make and good times than just the racing!

    Moto track is about 1.5 miles long. Making it about 2.5 miles of woods.

    Nice work!
    I feel the 250FX feels less tiring racing in this type of terrain. Any thoughts?
    BTW liked "Hey, that's Mike.....damn"😁
    Keep up the great work!

    • @Captain250FX
      @Captain250FX  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks for watching! Yes this bike is tailored made for Michigan racing/single track! Especially now you can tune out the engine braking, love it!

    What would you recommend for someone new to trail racing, the sprint enduros or hare scrambles?

    • @Captain250FX
      @Captain250FX  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Both are challenging in their own ways, but sprint enduro would be a little easier only because you get a break in between tests. A hare scramble is 2hrs plus one lap non-stop and gets brutal depending on your conditioning.

      @Captain #250# FX I was originally looking at the sherco 300 sef but now the yamaha yz250fx is getting my attention. From what I'm reading the sherco is better for tight trails/hard enduro and the yamaha is better for faster flowy trails. What bike would you say is a better all around bike for MI riding? The yamaha being $3k less is definitely a plus.

    • @Captain250FX
      @Captain250FX  ปีที่แล้ว

      @@ryanbelanger4932 the FX for Michigan for sure! The build quality of the yz is far better also. I’m on a Sherco page and they have some gremlins, the yz is more reliable and bulletproof. I’ve wanted to try other bikes but keep going yzfx because you just can’t get a better bike as far as reliability goes.

      @@Captain250FX have you looked into the Honda 250RX at all?

    • @Captain250FX
      @Captain250FX  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@ryanbelanger4932 a guy I race with has one, it’s solid. But what makes the FX better in my opinion is the transmission and the power tuner app. FX has a wide ratio 6 speed which is amazing off road racing and trail riding where the Honda has basically a moto trans. Also you can do a lot with the tuner app for the Yamaha that can’t be done on the Honda. Honda is a solid bike, but just not as advanced as the FX.
