I get why they’re trying because it highlights the main difference between normal and ebike , but I’m quite happy if it makes the real ews look even more legit. They’re just selling bikes at the end of the day . Lots of em

Take into account that these are a full day of racing, often the winning time is between 40-60 minutes, and the impossible climb is only 1-2 of those minutes. A lot of racers and even some organisers don't like it though and would happily get rid of it.

In my humble non ebiker opinion , despite acknowledging the difficulty of some of those climbs watching an ebike race uphill is just lame. It’s not as difficult as motorbike trials , it’s slow , they’re spinning tiny gears all done up in full face gear . Is this the evolution of the sport we were expecting??

Haha you're not wrong, and I'm stoked people still care what music is in riding videos. Royalty-free music for YouTube is the worst, but I'll make a point to start including some better tunes. Stoked you dig this year's testing concept!

I think maybe the location of hardline could be its limiting factor. It’s not like the fest in SA where conditions are more readable . If you get normal Welsh weather that weekend then things get too sketch.

You're missing the point. We all know it happens and have seen it all before, but hearing a person cry out like that is not entertainment.

The only Swiss junior woman on the entry list is Delia Da Mocogno. Fairly sure it's her in the crash as her insta shows her on a Commencal with Boxxer. https://www.instagram.com/p/CheXOUDN6eP/ - edit - confirmed it's her by a youtube comment.

those bridges though.... sheesh. what a wild race. can't say its a bad track when the top race craft int he world is getting caught missing gaps and clipping out any moment. Vergiers high right and Finns bridge landing were my high points. loves seeing those berms get railed at ludicrous speed. might as well enjoy the free red bull as much as we can. !!! wcdh rocks so hard.

Maybe a few more numbers on their sides/back so the vid makers can identify. Although RAW turns these around in super fast time so can’t complain ever!! Amazing
