Offering prospective TET users the opportunity to observe life on the trail with a 3 times novice. As well as a good look at section 23 on TET France.
I have taken 1 continuous hour of our trip, with only a couple of camera drop outs, and divided it into 5 short sections. The aim is to show TET hopefuls what you can face with regards to Terrain and obstacles in just one hour and also to show the nature of France section 23.
I have to say this is not my finest riding hour and I do make a meal of one or two of the obstacles we come across. But I'm hoping it might give some insight to prospective TET users and at the very least show the state of the trail and terrain, feel free to fast forward the painful bits, I did.
While looking through the hours of video from our last trip, to pick out the best bits, as we all do. I realised that this particular hour contained many of the things that a novice could face on the TET. I consider myself a novice and a lot of my observations are just common sense, but if you don't know you don't know.
Heart felt thanks to the man in front for his patience and continuing support. Cheers Rich'
And as always, a big thank you to the linesmen and TET organisation.
