Most people go for, and get, the win with far more kit than Omar / Jesse.
It looks cool to have small bags. Jesse admitted he packed his kit down really small for the photos and to make an impact on the other riders at the start. But it is risky, and the gains are not that great
Christoph Strasser travelled pretty heavy on tcr last year. As a pro he couldn't afford to risk not winning.
I took more than Omar on my 600 this week!
