Updated throughout the day with quick takes from staff.
Women's MotoX Enduro Women's division was new this year. I have no idea what that means, but I have two theories. The first is that the executives at ESPN are sexist 4chan commenters in disguise, and paid a group of retired ladies to don motorcycle helmets and bumble through this course while watching on the internet and laughing until they died. The other is that every woman here was required to get blind drunk before starting, and then do her best. I choose to believe the second. It adds a note of heroism to the debacle.
Did this need to happen? No, but neither did setting the whole thing to Yakety Sax, and you're glad you saw both now, aren't you?

The event took a surprise turn
When the contestants made it to a marathon race that lasted well over 2 hours.

Wow
that made my morning. Who insisted on 250cc bikes for the 5 foot tall ladies? That decision maker is certainly a 4chan reader.
