Love the sportsmanship shown by the riders. Seeing people stop to help those fallen both ahead and behind you in any kind of "race" is rare, but in this video you sometimes see 4 or more riders stop and give up their position to help pull a bike behind them out of the trees

Having just come off a "race" with terrible track conditions all I have to say is there's a point when riding just isn't riding anymore, and this is well beyond that point. I realize it takes extreme skill and super endurance to get through these things. But I can't help thinking, whenever I watch "hard enduro" that its just plain stupid.

I look at it like trials these days.....
riders are so skilled and bikes so good if they made
the course any easyer you would end up with multiple winners..
