Default Enduro - fans working as hard as the riders

Now that's a hill! Looks some of the fans work as hard as the riders in this race:

Yikes! Those were two strokers too. The things were like a 'buzz saw' when they got close to the top. Just goes to show how important momentum is on insane hill climbs. I'd like to see the whole hill climb from the beginning to see where these guys started to lose it. Momentum is everything but this thing looked like a really windey hill climb... very challenging.

Im sure the KX500 riders wouldn't have had a problem. .
Looked like a tuff ride. Your right, momentum is the key. More CC's would have helped without a doubt.

That is just NUTS!!!. Kinda like the WRC. When the drivers need help, the fans seem to always give a helping hand. Good tires and more CC's is always a plus for those hill climbs.
