2025 JNCC R7 Kijima Snow Park: Fun C Lap 2/8 Onboard with no. 222 (Fun C winner) on KTM 350 EXC-F

This is the second of eight laps of my race in Fun C class of Japanese National Cross-Country Championship **JNCC R7 Kijima Snow Park**. I start the lap as leader in Fun C, but no. 205 is close behind. We catch some more riders in the higher classes in the first part of the lap. Then rider no. 44 almost crashes right in front of me (2:25) - what a scary moment! Shortly after, I get overtaken by no. 302 coming out of a forest section. I follow him for a while before retaking the lead due to a bit of traffic jam in another forest section. After about 2/3 of the lap, both no. 302 and no. 205 overtake me, and we keep on battling for the rest of this lap. I finish the lap in 2nd position in Fun C. I ended up winning Fun C class, and came 11th overall in Fun GP. It was a successful but tough race with lots of battles! I ride a KTM 350 EXC-F SIX DAYS 2024. As you can see, the conditions were dry and dusty, the track quite bumpy after a while. It was also very hot. #JNCC #CrossCountry #Offroad #Motorcycle #Dirtbike #Enduro #FirstLap #FunC #Onboard #KTM
