Modern day world cup level Cross Country (XC) athletes have amazing fitness and technical riding ability, but just how fast are they really? Is it possible for a regular person to keep up on the trails? 🤔 In this video we have a beginner and a keen amateur to see how they rank in comparison to 2021 XCO world champion Evie Richards.

Very. I climb certain hill at my local trail centre in 50 minutes and I consider myself as above average, I ride/train about 1000 minutes per month. I've seen the video of a serious amateur XC/Enduro/DH racer who did it in 25 minutes. Who again was 12-15% slower than Nino Shurter on the loop of one of the XC world cup races, so I am sure the climb alone Nino would do in less than 20 minutes I think. Insane.

This has given me an idea... There should be an official GMBN course and a segment on the dirt shed show where a guest is invited to put a time down and there's a guest leaderboard. Much like the old Top Gear board. Separate out the pro's from the rest, etc.

@kowioutdoortv 2 года назад

Some thoughts about E-Bike, maybe not 100% relevant here but E-Bike makes me worry to bring beginners to the point where they do not have capability to ride, it's easy to uphill, climbing but how to descend then, not too fast in cornering ? E-Bike easy to run fast but dangerous to loose control

@LovetheIPAs 2 года назад

Great seeing Evie rip, but putting the amateur on an e-bike? Seems like less fun to have the beginner lapped twice. Gareth may have completed the course faster than Hannah without the ebike. Just seems like this set-up took advantage of Hannah and wasn't in the spirit of fun and support of new riders.

@leftaroundabout 2 года назад

Yeah. I wonder if this was about bringing in Gareth Richards but not revealing how he would actually compare to the ladies in a fair race, or just again management trying to smuggle as many e-bikes as possible into GMBN videos. It's a bit pathetic.

@BobVaughan 2 года назад

Three great competitors and people! I was surprised at how high Evie's HR was. I guess I always thought a world class rider would run a little lower but I'm not sure why I thought that. They can obviously tolerate a higher HR without going into lactic acid so why not? It's a testimony to her fitness level that she can go that hard. It was fun to watch her ride and see her attacking style. Granted, it was only one lap so it was more of a sprint compared to a normal length of race for her but very impressive and such a humble and cheerful person. All three though!

XC is near pure fitness, all the skills in the world with no fitness vs. a beginner roadie with minimal skills and excellent fitness will be a no contest race for the beginner roadie win, try it out with a dirt jumper or trials rider who doesn't ride xc vs. any GBN rider, would be cool to see, I would say try it the other way too, but health and safety might not.
