1st Place Finish - Chuwells Challenge 2024 (first lap shown)

Had a decent holeshot with my buddy @SingleTrackTherapy taking the lead. Managed to get out in front during a bottle neck and never looked back. Video shows most of the first lap but my battery didn't last through the second. Finished 1st in my Senior Amature class.
Big shout out to the organizers and volunteers that made this race such a success!

What's the prize for 1st place?

[@thesmoness]

Dude. The hole shot was a blur and it wasn't til I looked at the footage that I saw that you and Craig were ahead of me. I had one of my better starts at maybe 6th out of the holeshot but I never did account for you guys and kept wondering. I had a bad first lap in the bottlenecks and salvaged my race with a strong second lap. But you guys crushed it, well done. Can't wait to compare footage to see what bottlenecks you avoided just being ahead of it. I wanted to stick around to support your podium but after waiting forever we had to leave.

[@coastalenduro]

Thanks, Russ! I muscled through the bottlenecks that I came across but I definitely missed any from our class.

[@thesmoness]

Was glad to see your crash at the 28 min mark. I had several top overs more than most races - greasy back tire

[@coastalenduro]

@@thesmoness haha, oh man, I must’ve crashed at least 6 times. Such a greasy mess!

[@DeadEnduro]

Great race. How long was your race?

[@coastalenduro]

Thanks! I finished in 2:51 but the clock starts with the first line so take 15 mins off of that roughly.

[@mattchursky6036]

What class is this?

[@coastalenduro]

Senior Amature

[@joeyrouleau935]

I think I'd be so annoyed with people in the way.
