Mechanicals can't stop us | 2019 Sea Otter Classic XCO | UCI Elite Men
Here's a race from the 2019 season I had not published yet. Sea Otter Classic was the 3rd UCI Elite race for Josh and me that year after the Vail Lake and Bonelli Park US Cups. We did the long one-lap course which was a first for me. I was riding blind discovering the trails as we raced. What a blast! The trail network is amazing there just next to the WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca track. That day both Josh and I had mechanical issues. His crank came loose and I had a pedal strike that jammed my chain in the crank. But we were both able to finish; Not last!

Trying a better line in Fontana | 2022 Southridge Winter Series XC #5
Просмотров 4 тыс.2 года назад
This time I tried the rock-roll line I used to always ride around, and it's a fun feature! I also tried to stay on Gavin and Julien's wheel at the start just for fun, but I couldn't hold the 500W I needed for that long. I need to work more on my 2-minute power. Because I had to fall back on my endurance pace which I have for days. It's just not the right tool in a race that lasts under 60 minut...

This one was a good race! I felt strong and was able to push harder. Smashed some PRs. We did the short course this week which has more technical descending. It was great! With fun battles on course.

It felt much harder than usual for some reason | 2022 Southridge Winter Series XC #3

The legs felt flat that day. It happens. That morning during practice we had crazy strong gusty wind, but thankfully it died down a little bit by the time we started. Still, I was being careful descending not to get suddenly blown off the course. Because that would be not ideal. Looking forward to the next one this Saturday to crush it good! 📸 Thumbnail photo by kareneottphotography.smugmug.com...

This ride had been on the hit list for a while since Josh (@jstootell) told me about it. I'm glad I've finally been able to tackle it with him this year. We had to wait for a good time when the weather wasn't scorching hot because it's in the desert after all. It's normally a shuttle ride that takes about 3 hours to complete, but we climbed it because why not. The whole loop took us just over 6...

Finish!! We did it! Team Wilson🇬🇧Goyette🇨🇦 conquered the Alps. Stage 5 was another epic stage crammed with great single tracks. The body felt good through the week; that means my training regimen was on point. I was worried about not being able to make it through, but now I’d say I could do another day or two of this 🤪🙃. I’m so stoked. I really pushed myself further than ever this year preparin...

Another one in the bag! Stage 4 was super fun; they call it “the single track stage” and hell yeah that’s true. We were treated with an extra dose for rocky, rootsy, crazy steep technical trails covered with a tasteful amount of slippery mud. Literally Heaven. And with the perfect equipment for the job makes it so rewarding. The Spark with its FOX34 is bouncing up and down, flying over the big ...

And we're racing in 2022! The first one always hurts in a special way so I'm glad we got it out of the way early. We'll only get better from here. I was stoked that we did the classic long course with the back section. Still extra chunky conditions as they were the previous week; the most technical I've seen on this course.

We conquered the “queen” stage. It was a rough one. The Scaletta Pass between St Moritz and Davos was no joke at 2,600 m elevation; rough both up and down. It was another day at 350 TSS (training stress score) and I was still within my maximum weekly training load. So fitness-wise I still had not entered uncharted territory... yet! We finished the 75 km and 2300 m of climbing of stage 3 in 6:06...

It was a hot day in June, with the temperature peaking above 45C (113F). But because the chili dogs at the Cosmic Café on top of Mount Wilson are really good, and I needed another consecutive day with 2,000 m (6,500 ft) of climbing for my training, and we're kinda nuts, Josh and I went for it. The descent is one of my favorite in all of Southern California. With a few stops and transitions, it ...

And we were back on the bike the next day for stage 2/5 of the Swiss Epic mountain bike race in the stunning canton of Graubünden. Unlike stage 1, which was a loop around St-Mortiz, this time we raced point-to-point from St-Moritz to Valposchiavo near the border of Italy. The course featured more descending than climbing with 1850m up and 2650m down over 61km. It took us 4:49:57 to complete. Th...
Trying the new GoPro HERO 10 on the trails | Farmer's Ridge to Caballero XC

The HERO 10 is a big upgrade! Now that the newest firmware finally came out to support the resolution I need, I could give the camera a go on my nearby trails. The main difference is a faster chip in the camera which allows processing more data at once. That unlocks a higher resolution at 60fps, so those watching my videos in full-screen on a 4K screen will notice a sharper image with more deta...

    Hi Guys, you truly have become my motorbike accident recovery trainers! I add my iPad front of my stationary training bike and I try to keep up with you two. This race is my favourite and I did it in two sequences, yesterday 40Km and today the rest 35km! I still have 5 weeks crouches and then I can start to learn how to walk again. I will defenitely buy mtb and start riding my area roads and tracks. I live in Amed, North Coast of Bali, Indonesia. I also been filming many years Tour de Timor MTB race in Timor-Leste, which been the most amazing riding in my life. Hopefully that race come back to the government sports agenda, as it has been down since 2018. Keep up riding and keep up filming your rides!!! Thank you! Matur Suksema!

    I guess putting a go pro on the back of a Fiat Abarth cannot compare to this... Or on its sun roof... Amazing Captive Cruising... at the easy convenience of sitting on my couch. Seriously though how in the heck are you not scared cruising 16 KPH that trail. Or battling a 16 percent grade at 8 kph.... what the H man. Forgot about the mileage your going... it was hilarious to hear you say 1 / 10 the way... My hat is off to you.
