[Music] Welcome to Andor. The XC course here is punchy. It’s tech. We’re at altitude, so the power is going to be so zapping. And I’ve got the one and only Jen Jackson from the Auba Box Factory team. How you feeling, Jen? Hey yo, good so far. We’ll see you again tomorrow night. Let’s get stuck straight into it. As we come out of the tech zone, we come into the steepest climb of the race. Jen, this is going to be a really critical part. Yeah, every year this is where the key moves seem to go. Great crowds here. So, low speed, high action. And right now, I’m already putting out 700, 430, 500 watts pretty easily. And as we crest the top, we go into the first split line of the race. Jen, which line are you going to take? I’ll take the right line. All right. I’m going to go to the left. See how we go. You have a little climb in the right line, but then you can get inside. Oh yeah. And look at that. Jen comes out almost in front and we drop dropped in exactly together. Another section here. Couple of different lines. Where are you going? Jen’s got the early lead. Whoa. Bit tight. Go right. Then it’s going left again. So, this is going to be great with so many people. Make sure you’re in the right position before we climb back up to the start finish. [Music] So, after a sharp little corner again, the line choices continue inside, outside. Plenty of room for attacks, plenty of room to watch where everyone is, plenty of room to make a mistake. Speak for yourself. We’ve got one corner to go before a big uphill sprint. And with a small amount of altitude and the high power of this course, positioning here will be key before the uphill sprint home. We’re going to take a chance, get a breath, have a rest as we come into the finish straight. Jen gives me the look. We’re 50 to go. It’s uphill. We’re well over 1,000 watts. Ready, set, go. What a track here at Andor for the XC. We’ll see you track side. Woo!
