  • Hayden McCormick is also a pro, but Conti level. I think there is a real possibility that other pro teams will start entering these events, spurred on by bike manufacturers foray into the gravel/'adventure' market. What is niche now, i suspect will become increasingly common over the next few years.

    There is presently a novelty about WT pro obliterating the field, but if a few other WT pros enter the whole scene will change dramatically

    I imagine the endurance racing scene will have mixed feelings about this?

  • To what degree can anyone with great fitness turn up and be competitive an endurance event though?

    Not having completed anything epic myself, I always assumed mental strength is as much part of the challenge - could any pro really pick up and do something as relentless and unsupported?
