MACAVALANCHE 2024 - Winning Run?? - Liam Moynihan

Спорт

The Macavalanche has been happening in Scotland for a good number of years - originally at Glencoe the race moved to Nevis Range in Fort William in 2022.
I managed to win the race in both 2022 and 2023 so was going for the third win in a row! A good course was set out on the weather was perfect for another classic Macavalanche race!
Thanks to all the great companies that keep my bikes rolling, the videos going and getting me to the races!

Looking forwards to some more mass start races in 2024 now with the Megavalanche and Mountain of Hell later in the year!!

    Snow riding is my favorite riding. I made a a short 12 inch set of two skis that were able to pivot at the fork and the end of the skis were exactly at the wheel patch intended for the geometry of the bike. I could ride no handed oin the ski slope with it. LOL

    Ahhh cheers! It was good fun on the open hill this year. Think it was quite a good route that missed the worst of the bogs! Haha yeh the rim tape did an exceptional job. It was the stuff that comes on the SILT wheels I had in there but if I ever need to replace it I typically use the Schwalbe stuff which is really good too!

    Thanks! Yeh there were qualifying stages before the main race. 2 timed sections and then seeded from that. I managed to be fastest in the times qualifying so had the first choice of where to line up on the start grid. 10 riders per row back to 300riders!

    Yeh he let me pass there! That was a bit of a climb there and I’m normally pretty strong on the climbs so had it earmarked as a possible passing location. He was probably hearing my mad spokes rattling like mad and wondering what was going on haha

    The camera should not be set on auto-focus but on manual. It's constantly trying to refocus and we lose lots of resolution.
