Thanks GMBN for highlighting the shredding skills that Ella and other female riders bring...the entire MTB community benefits from more inclusion. Also for not editing out the parts where things go a bit sideways...it seems many riders only want viewers to see their perfect moments, where Ella's showing the genuine experience...the big sends and the crashes that, at some point, are going to accompany them. Very glad to see her laughing afterward with bike & body still intact! Ella's a super-skilled rider with a great attitude...looking forward to seeing more of her riding and upcoming wins! :)

It takes Ella Conolly to make Neil Donoghue look like going at a normal speed rather than being super fast as usual (despite the fact that he still is super fast). That's a compliment for both :). The very best wishes for good luck to Ella for this EWS seasons, looking forward.

Cool girl, very sympathetic. Also very nice trails there! *Cries in Dutch*

[richardsickler]

That bike and body separation is real!!! What a technician she is!

[bobmckenzie]

Speaking to current and up-and-coming athletes in all disciplines would make a fantastic series…giving the riders a bit of support, and (I imagine) getting more younger folk interested in competition

[wolfridsson]

She's awesome! Hope she continue to do good in races!

[drieskotze]

[TheyForcedMyHandLE]

Looking forward to seeing this bike on the trail. It's a sick looking bike and sadly wasn't available when I needed a new bike.

[chrisridesbicycles]

She‘s really cool. I wish I had that confidence. The colour of her bike is great. There should be mir bike colours like that and not only black and grey.

[JaggersLips]

Riders of the 90’s paved the way for this…. Now you can make a good living out of it !

[geoffwaymark]

Not often you see someone ride a bike as smoothly and nicely as Neil on the tech. Just floating down the trail
