Attempting to Overtake EVERYONE in this Crazy Race 

When you lost 4th place, (which you regained) to that fellow competitor, it gave a real perspective of the speed and corners. Absolutely amazing.

My respect for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place grew astronomically after seeing your effort for a 4th place.

That was honestly incredible. Your endurance is crazy!

That was a fucking great performance Jono!!! The top 3 definitely didn't get bogged down in the crowd over the first 1/3 of the race like you did. EWS fitness, skills and experience really showing there! 💪

Never cared for downhill biking, never watched a race, never known anyone who does it, never thought coming across a random youtube video of a stranger doing this sport would be so enthralling. Wow!! Couldn't take my eyes off the screen for 10 minutes and 35 seconds. Bravo 🙏👌 I was rooting for you from the first pedal

Going at that speed on rough terrain without loosing control and making sharp turns on gravel is absolutely incredible.

Well done Jono, I was out my chair for you to get 4th back !! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Good luck for Sunday.

Have loved cycling my whole life and a year back, got obsessed with long distance running but everytime I see mtb races, I'm always left wondering how insane it is to go that fast over a terrain like that. I get nervous just running over a small muddy section on paved roads lol. Can't imagine what it's like to cycle downhill a mountain. Nuts man, my utmost respect to you, and all the mtb riders and trail runners out there. Thank you for continuing to push the boudaries of what is possible everyday. Was feeling quite smug about my running streak count and weekly mileage lately, this humbled me real quick haha.

Dude the line you took at 2:26 was a bit of a shock. I thought you were going over the handlebars but it seemed to go surprisingly smoothly.

Holy moly; and it’s only the qualifier race. Impressive effort from back of the pack to 4th. Good luck for the main race.

Way to go Jono. Your endurance is incredible. Loved seeing you push on in this crazy race!

Seriously impressive Jono, stoked for Sunday!

That had everything. Tension, excitement, the battle for 4th, and a soundtrack by Ivor the Engine. Awesome. Just what I needed for a Sunday evening. Thank you. 😁

That move from 5th to 4th was a masterclass

Epic ride jono, the dynamics of this race are just insane! Such a great performance, and, not taking anything away from the winner, starting position plays a big part with clean track and line choice vs being in the crowd.

Mad respect, you’re a legend and that was a great watch. Don’t stop pushing yourself, you’ll win if they start you near the front

well done jono, great achievement, godspeed with you on the final’s

Total respect for that ride. Keep these vids coming, you're a legend.

damn dude, that was a great effort. even a little battle in there. good luck in the final...stoked to watch that.

Oh my god what a result, awesome effort Jono.. Legend 👍🏻

Staying focused while putting this much effort shows how tough you are mentally 👏🏼👏🏼

That was incredibly! What a sick race and what an incredible route!

Impressive Dude, great effort and result, good luck on Sunday.

Bro! That was amazing!! Thanks for sharing with us! Best of luck!!

Wow 4th even though Jono went back to 5th managed to find the energy to catch back up and overtake him slow and steady wins the race by the podium guys that’s out the window lol Massive respect to the lunatics that do this on HTS

Unbelievable! I can't even run on such terrain. Best wishes for the finals! You're incredible! 🙂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

In the first minute looks like you choose the worst paths to pass the others competitors. Amazing race. Respect.

Bro, I can’t believe how fit you are. That was really freakin impressive. Well done mate.

I was yelling at my screen for you brother! Great finish!!

God that race is so sketchy😂

That was epic mate. Absolute stellar performance, what I call hunger for success. Brilliant.

Stumbled across your video and I’m glad I did … it was unbelievable!! Well done mate 💪🏼

This is crazy and impressive at the same time ! Great run!

Wow!! You done great! Very impressive 💪

That looked Brutal Jono. Great result mate!!

I've never seen anything like it, what an incredible human you are! ❤❤

Jono great ride and well done wrestling back 4th after briefly being overtaken,big ticker mate.All the best for the big one.

Seeing your position improve step by step until 4th was epic, but the fact you were looking behind you pretty much all the time indicated you felt someone was close. Shame you couldn't catch up to those who had a clear run, but that battle for 4th was still pretty epic... ow you you're faster eh 👌👌

Woaw NPCs are savage in this game, I'm screaming at my screen "take the outside, get some speed" Wonderful performance! 🔥

Jeez the first 3 must be supermen. Skill, endurance, stamina, leg power and balance, a dangerous sport too. Great race to come from all that way back to finish 4th and to get it all on film too. Great upload and a fantastic insight into this sport.

Amazing performance, that track is so much rougher and harder than it looks on camera.

Outstanding Performance! Good strength on the uphill great job.

Yess Jono! 💪 You held to your 4th spot! Hard racing that!

So exhilarating to watch that I am out of breath by the time you reach the bottom! Well done you are amazing !
