When Two G.O.A.T.s Teamed Up | 2023 Oparau 8 Hour Cross Country (HIGHLIGHTS)
Спорт
The inaugural Oparau 8 Hour harescramble bore witness to a truly one-off occurrence. You see, Brad Groombridge - New Zealand’s greatest cross country rider of all time, was looking for a teammate to contest the epic endurance event with (this would be the longest race in our country’s history) and Kawasaki just so happened to be looking to promote their newly-released KX450X, a dirt bike purpose built for the discipline. So they drafted in none other than Cody Cooper - New Zealand’s greatest motocross rider of all time! Surely this duo would be unstoppable… But 50mm of rain the day before threw more than a spanner into the works - Watch as they masterfully navigate the adverse conditions, keeping level-headed in spite of multiple setbacks and manage the surprisingly staunch competition from James and Cooper Scott, Oparau locals who were extremely fast early on. Pay attention to things like line selection and throttle inputs - This is truly a masterclass in riding a muddy, slippery, rough and rutted racetrack!

If you somehow missed the documentary about this race, I'd recommend watching that first: kzread.info/dash/bejne/a6OhqMiiiZyzgto.html
