Those barriers look bunny hopable on a mountain bike

I used to be able to clear haybales by bunny hopping over them back in the days when I had a rigid bike with toe clips... I would have thought some of those mtbike setups would have been able to clear it?? Probably pretty hard to do on a CX bike...

I supose if you had the skills (so completely counting me out no matter what the bike ) you could bunnyhop the one in the pic but the other ones definatly not. 1 was uphill were you had minimal spped and the other was a set of 3 about 2m apart.

Fair enough! Just looked like a cunning plan to gain a few seconds... but you never can tell from a photo!!

If ya looked hard you could ride between the tape and the 1st 2 barriers on the set of 3, well that was up untill i tryed it on lap 3. didnt save time as the 3rd barrier gap looked wider than it was. A Fun, social morrning thanks Mike and the many helpers
