A friend from Finland linked this video to an Enduro local to him last weekend, it looks wet!

That doesn't even look like fun.

I love the one guy makes it with some speed then the next guy goes super slow and buries the front and flips.

There's a creek that I cross to get to my track, and in the spring, it's a lot like this. Innocent looking, but bike swallowing. The first time I tried it, I buried my KDX to the seat! And I didn't have anyone to help me get it out. I had to use some log/poles to lever it out of the mud, then drag it up the bank. Took me an hour and a half to extract. I considered leaving it there many times.
bet they're psyched for lap 2!![]()

i can't say i wouldn't want to give it a shot. even though i know exactly how that bone jarring launch to case on the other side would feel...

If you want to race offroad over there, this is what you have to ride in. Those ditches are man made years ago for drainage. The layer of pete is 6+ feet deep..add water and a shitload of bikes and that's your result.
I crossed one similar while I was there in July, but not that extreme. When I sunk in the 2' of goopy mess, my friend said "you chose wrong line"! I looked around and laughed a bit and asked where the good line was??

i'll never forget a mud hole from a HS i raced in Florida, got my CR125 stuck so deep i had to yank out the front wheel first, sorta stand the bike up on the rear and rock it back and forth to try and rip it free.
i didnt care if that fucking bike broke in half i was so exhausted and pissed. getting the front wheel out alone was enough. thick mud has insane suction.
but i agree with Chip, dirt biking is all about accomplishments. most of it isn't comfy at all! cracking a brew at the end of a grueling day is about as good as it gets.![]()
