Attempting to Overtake EVERYONE in this Crazy Race

I started this MTB race behind 80 riders and tried to overtake them all! THe Mega Avalanche is bonkers. A mass start enduro race down Alp D'Huez, starting on a glacier! So happy with this result and ready for finals on Sunday. The enduro bike is prime and ready for some rough downhill!

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.

[oldsamsauce]

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! 💪

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

I broke my collarbone 4-5 times just watching

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

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.

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

[mauricebruns]

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

I searched for breathing asmr and found this masterpiece✨

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.

[suesheane]

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

[danilo]

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

[James-stone]

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. 😁

I've fallen off about 30 times watching this...

Respect

[ocbyn]

That move from 5th to 4th was a masterclass

[rarelycomments]

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

[ashleytombs]

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
