Thanks for the recon! It looked wetter than I expected, but as you said, hopefully conditions will be better on race day!
Yes, the snow was melting.
Camp was great! See you at the race.
I will look forward to it.
Great video! Felt like I was back at camp again!
Ha ha, thanks Ray.
Great video Jase. Enjoying the journey with you. Passing through the States three times this year but unfortunately have not been able to coordinate it be at the race to give support!! Looking forward to the next instalment.
Thanks Rod. Lots of travel for you. Hopefully you get to ride your bike on the trips.
Thank you from this over view vlog. You insights have been helpful. I’m in Texas at near 3000 elevation. Ill be at the Rush on July 7 and the 100 in August. See you there. Your gonna kill it!
Thanks and I am glad you found it useful, the Rush also looks tough so good luck! See you in Aug.
I too am in TX and can't figure out where there is 3k of elevation? Where are you located, I might wanna go do some riding there. Thanks, -Cody (from Austin)
The elevation of Lubbock is 3209ft If you go to Amarillo ride down into Paloduro south of Claude Texas about 8 hours north you can get nealry 1000 ft of climbing. Do some repeats.
@@codybaron3721 I am in New Zealand, you are welcome to pop over any time 🙂
@@leeoles5692 Learn something new all the time. I went to TX Tech for almost 6 yrs, raced many a MTB race in Palo Duro and never realized it was at that elevation. Didn’t know the Caprock shelf raised up that high!
Jase what a great preview video. I'm glad it was so long, I'd have welcomed even more! I appreciate all the feedbaack you gave and once again, I think we have similar strategies of taking it slow in the begiinning. Your 2h 45m time to Powerline Aid station, on a scale of 1 to 10 what pace were you riding?
Thanks @Codybaron3721 I would say 6/10, I had to stop a couple of times due to snow and the snow melt slowed us down some. I would say with better conditions, more acclimatized and tapered it would be 2:20-2:30 for the same effort. I was basically riding at what I thought was 1030 effort. I did have more video but didn’t want to bore the internet too much with it.
Now that you have seen the course, although conditions hopefully will be drier on race day, and talked to other competitors, how do you feel about the way your bike is set up? Are there any changes you intend making based on the camp?
Hi Ross. I was very happy with the bike and gear set up. I am getting fresh Race Kings to put on 2 weeks before I fly out along with a waxed chain. I did put on an out front mount instead of the k edge one for the camp and it worked well. I might wear a USWE to Twin Lakes as it was harder to drink, just becuase I kept forgetting etc. and then i will just have to eat a chew and gel.
