MTBeer Posted June 27, 2013 Share Seems like its DH vs AM vs XCM vs XCO vs Dirt Roadie etc etc Does it ever end??what's life without a bit of skop skiet an donner occasionally. at least on the hub nobody gets hurt (unless you are a bit emotionally soft).

Guest Latent Blue Posted June 27, 2013 Share So, to all those who complain that it is too expensive, start your own multi day stage race and charge less. Haha... when people complain about doctors fees (and I dont agree with it either)... I say... well get new doctor... even better... go study medicine!!!

rouxtjie Posted June 27, 2013 Share True. But that trip halfway round the world costs less than the Epic.... Just saying.So it must be better value then....depends what you regard as value for money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Omega Man Posted June 27, 2013 Share So it must be better value then....depends what you regard as value for money.To me yes. But that's not to say the Epic isn't an incredible event. I just prefer a different thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcza Posted June 27, 2013 Share was also going to mention jonkers. plenty of AM and DH there. My skills are so bad any descent in a XCM race feels like DH to me so I get the best of both ChUkKy, rouxtjie and Steven Knoetze (sk27) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baaisikilist Posted June 27, 2013 Share To me yes. But that's not to say the Epic isn't an incredible event. I just prefer a different thing. Value for money is definitely a matter of personal opinion and individual circumstance. For me the Epic wasn't value for money at all. But then, I don't really have that much of it. I'd definitely sooner spend less on a European trip. But it was an experience of a lifetime and one I'd recommend to anybody who has the means to do it, at least once.

For me I know that there's no way in hell I'd finish so why waste the money? haha. That's why I go to a place with ski lifts for my riding holidays.

Nico Pfitzenmaier raced the Enduro on the weekend and finished in the top ten ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
