2023 Battle Of The Goats Course Preview | Qualifier Loop With Drew Kirby

Introduction

Hey, guys! It's Drew Kirby here with American Hard Enduro. Today, we're at Brushy Mountain Motorsports Complex for the Battle of the Goats qualifying lap. I'm about to give it a go and show you all how it's done...or maybe how it's not done. Either way, it's bound to be entertaining!

Enduro Cross Fun and Games

We start off on this wild course, which hasn't been fully laid out yet. But hey, who needs a complete track? Let's just hit most of it and see how it goes. Off we go, and already I can feel the excitement building.

Towards Chicken Fight Hole

As I tear through the course, it feels familiar, like something I've raced before. Ah, yes, we're headed towards the infamous Chicken Fight Hole. I've tackled a few hair scrambles here in the past, and it's always a challenge. But hey, it's the perfect opportunity to show off my skills.

A New Twist

Wait a minute, there's a little change here! A new section has been added, and it looks like it might cause some bottlenecks for other riders. But not me! I'll take it on with style.

Funneling Through

Next up, we encounter a funnel section. It's a tight spot, but I navigate through it smoothly. Watch and learn, folks!

The Hero Dirt and Hidden Surprises

The conditions are perfect on the hero dirt. No rain till Saturday night, so it's prime riding conditions. But wait, there's a little surprise up ahead—a hidden line choice. I imagine it might trip up some of the other riders. Let's see if I can master it.

The Heart-Pounding Moments

As I continue on, I realize I didn't warm up before this qualifying lap. My breathing is heavy, and my heart rate is soaring. But hey, who needs to breathe properly when the adrenaline is pumping?

The Line Choices

It's time for some decision-making. I need to choose the best lines and avoid the challenging ones. Ah, look at that big hole—I'll steer clear of that one! Choosing the right line is crucial for success.

Recovering from Mistakes

Oh boy, I've made a few mistakes along the way. Must've hit every bump and rock on the course. But that's okay, I'm in recovery mode now. Let's make up for those errors and show off some serious skills.

The Journey Continues

As I push forward, the course throws more obstacles my way. Loose rocks, steep descents, treacherous climbs—it's all part of the adventure. But hey, I'm here to conquer it all.

A Little Vlogging Along the Way

Did I mention I have a little vlog going on? I want you all to enjoy the journey with me. So, sit back, relax, and watch me stumble and tumble my way through this challenging course. It's all in good fun!

The Long Haul

Time flies when you're having fun, right? It's been 24 minutes, and I'm still going strong. Well, maybe not that strong, but I'm still going. The course is testing my endurance, but I refuse to give up.

A Final Push

Just a little more to go! I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. But don't be fooled, there are still a few surprises waiting for me, like the rock pile from, well, let's just say it's not the most fun part of the course. But no worries, I'm ready for anything.
