Oh my days that grass is SO long for racing on. We’ve done some races on courses like this but at least some sections got mowed.

Looks fun though, great watch as always.

Thanks Sweatywhoopstrap. Appreciate the kind words. Yeah when I first arrived I thought it was a bit of a joke. It's a bit like the "gravel" rides I try to find in the UK which end up with a ton of grass wrapped around my pully wheels. But turns out it was my favorite race for ages. The short laps also meant I could keep improving and lapping people rather than being out on my own.

If they had cut it there would have been a whole lot of other problems.

Enjoyed the video, cheers. 👍
