Let's see your EMTBs!

Moterra test ride #2 - now with more stem! (50mm vs. the OEM 35mm). Longer stem definitely felt better, although I still don't feel as comfortable on this as I did on the Heckler. It can go fast. I had to get back home to continue working, so I was only able to get one lap at Neshaminy in. But I made it count - max-assist for most of the ride and pushed hard.

My HR numbers for the ride:

My legs were still sore from the weekend rides when I started. Now they feel absolutely cooked.

Not a bad looking bike, for sure...

Now to get my parts off it and return it to Halter's tomorrow and more talks with jdog.
 
Yes, but i've only "climbed" it. Someday, I'll do it right by starting up at Voorhees and then descend that section (slowly 🤪) to Columbia Trail and Nassau. Or, climbing up to Voorhees the other way.
It’s hairy but it’s doable to the gorge

I always follow the loam wolf channel, one of the better YT channels. I was very surprised by 62° headtube along with long chainstays on a 150mm bike.

Seems that the new EP801 has caught up with Bosch in power transfer. Not hearing that complaint this year

That thing has the best traction ever from the long rear. I can even get along with this Shimano motor. I never even noticed the slack hta The biggest hurdle for me is the small battery.
 
They were a bit more straight forward with me. I couldn't be on property when school was in.
I've never been hassled but I always park in the back lot (drive past the school buses) and I've never been there before 4 PM. Don't park in the front stadium lot.

This is different than for the Race - where they do park everyone in the stadium lot. This might be confusing if you typically only go there for the race. Bearing in mind, you can only really pre-ride the woods part of the course. None of the open field loops will be taped until the race. If you want to practice the gravel start, then try to wait until later when most folks are gone.

Things changed last year and per social media post, will be the same this year. Race start/finish area is where it's pinned as Nesh parking in the upper left of your picture.. Race parking is in the area of your "YES" and Neshaminy High School text.
 
Wow... Has attendance dropped? The last time I was there for a race, there were enough cars that I can't imagine how they'd all fit in that lot.
