2015-10-11 MWXC R11 Taylor Ridge B Lite Matt Ellermets YZ250 XC Race GoPro

MWXC R11 was a dustbowl rock garden rodeo! I was 4th into the woods from the start, then 15th at the start of lap #2 because I tried and failed at the pro hill on the first lap. After that I pushed through the course as hard as I could and avoided any big delays, picking off riders in my class on every lap. I finished 3rd of 17 in B Lite and 26th of 167 Overall, which makes it my current best XC result! The rattling is the pipe mount touching the skidplate, not the motor. ;) The fast laps are the last two; seek to 1h19m06s for those. Pro hill fail is at 10m50s. Time from pro hill fork to rejoining the trail is 2 minutes 15 seconds. Lap 1 - 15th - 17.22 Lap 2 - 9th - 15.21 Lap 3 - 7th - 15.16 Lap 4 - 6th - 15.01 Lap 5 - 5th - 15.27 (pit for goggles) Lap 6 - 4th - 14.47 Lap 7 - 3rd - 14.49 http://www.xcracing.com/midwestxc/lap... 10m50s Pro hill fail 18m00s Lap 18m08s Lowslide 33m21s Lap 41m48s Basil Aruin 42m45s Nathan Sullivan 48m38s Lap 1h06m00s Pit for goggles (40 seconds) 1h13m05s Several passes up a hill 1h14m45s Pass up the goaround
