I'm good friends with the accused willy waver. And in fact rode with him on the day he took his CX bike round those trails. He only chose the CX as his MTB had a terminal rear shock collapse the day before and his choices were CX or not come along.
I was amazed (and impressed) at the trails he managed to ride down and also how hot on our heals he was. He said he enjoyed it as it felt like Mtbing on a 90s bike again ie he was a lot more involved so I guess there's a greater sense of satisfaction from cleaning a section. Whilst there were a few features he had to walk down I was honestly amazed at some of what he did manage.
Whilst he's not a willy waver I do suspect he would have enjoyed many of the positive comments he got that day from stunned MTBers. And who could blame him.
