Silver Kings 2024 Silver Class - Day 1 and 2 compilation

I did a very poor job recording the race unfortunately. Ended up recording a majority of my battery time on just bottlenecks and then missing more interesting areas like the Creek on day one etc. At any rate the race lived up to its reputation, it was very hard. I finished a lap on Day 1 but only around 2/3 of a lap on day 2.

    @@RobinKkForNow thanks my friend - I finished a lap day one ( just after cut off ) but didn’t get overly close on day 2. Close to checkpoint 5 of 8 roughly- it lived up to reputation

    I ride with 12/46 gearing quite happy with it. Keeps the wheelbase the same as stock gearing.

    It definitely lived up to expectations. The video does it no justice as per usual but it was punishing
