Moi Moi TV - Stage 3 winning run from round 8 of the Enduro World Series in Finale, Italy. This was the longest stage of the day, and the one that I flatted on at the very bottom.—Jack Moir
I wonder how much he was pacing himself on such a long stage? It must be tempting to go balls out right out of the start but knowing you have over 10 minutes ahead of you must be difficult to measure.
It also must be disheartening when you've got to the bottom of such a long stage ready for a rest but have to immediately start fixing your bike. Makes it all the more impressive what he did in the subsequent stages.
I've used my HR monitor at an amateur level and it helps with the pace. But Holy guacamoly that cornering speed ? I be blessed if I can even look at trail.
I'd love to see how much faster pros corner than your average punter. Get PB to set up timing cones at some random corner at a bike park. Get a couple of pros to hit it, then sit back with a camera and record punters.
Love that Moir has transitioned into Enduro. Yeeaaaahhhh
At that level of fitness it’s amazing how fast you recover from a hard effort. Not saying I’m at his level, but with more and more training it’s so cool to see how your parasympathetic system works and helps you get back to normal so much quicker.
I think I could do that trail - with about ten rest/water stops and a few falls. I think I'd barf a lung up trying to do it at race pace and all in one!
Can't believe how smooth the GoPro makes this track look. It's not! The whole of Finale is a serious test for body and bike. These guys are proper athletes.
Jack, your POV is poor quality and the stabilization makes it crappier. Please get the same camera as Jesse has. His footage is nothing short of breathtaking.
