Hey all, I wanted to ask some other riders for a bit of advice on Bunya..
I feel like I do OK overall there and yes comparing myself with Strava to others (shame on me), but I suck particularly bad at one segment - Zig Zag which I do in the 1.30s.
Where the top guys are doing it in the 50s.. That isn't like oh yeah I can improve by 10 or 20%, it's like 40% quicker over such a short distance. What the hell are those quick guys doing??
Some tracks out there I can see with some more pedalling and improved skills I could improve reasonable amount and get myself where i'd be proud to be on the leader board..
But that zig zag track seems something else, it's not even that technical, some switchbacks and small root & log drops etc. I average 18km, but the quicker ones are around 30km!
Interested in feedback, especially if any of you on here are those quick ones?? I'm not trying to be no.1 but I like seeing these particular gaps as where I need to improve, this one seriously so.
Cheers
Joel
