Megavalanche 2022. From 104th to PODIUM...
I decided to start at the back because the conditions were insane on the grid. This gave me opportunity to see where everyone wanted to go and I found the holes! Thanks to the organisers for an amazing week. And a big thank you to the organisers for standing up against cheats and removing them from the race on derestricted e bikes.
Full race run filmed on the Insta360 OneRS.

I was one of the first few riders to do the original Red Bull trail at Coed-y-Brenin, many years ago - on a Gary Fisher hardtail with the then new V-brakes. I know it's nowhere near comparable to this epic ride, but this is what that felt like then. I'm 72 now and, in large part due to the injuries I collected doing this and other, possibly inadvisable things over many years, this is now what it feels like going to Tesco on my electric fatbike.
