    1. The race looks awesome!
      Had the problem with leg crams a few days ago as well. It was a super hot day and I was going up pretty a steep road and got the cramps in both thighs,. Turned out I was just dehydrated and because I only drank water I also was low on sodium.

    2. Love these kinds of videos. And these two guys are awesome. It literally feels like I want to be there with you 🙂 Pure genius. Great work. Keep it up

    3. It's hilarious when xc guys get so pissed off because you're slow at climbing and they have to pass you, then they can't descend to save their lives and you have to be really nice to them to sneak past before they crash. 😂

    4. For Chur… try "Koor", otherwise great work in the Canton of Graubuenden.
      There is such a variety of trails, endless numbers of awesome views and sorry to see that you had bad luck with the weather.
      You'll be back!

    5. I absolutely loved this . Fantastic change of pace from the usual stuff . I was welling up at the end 😂 to top guys and a great team behind the cameras . Well done everyone

    6. Great video team and well done guys. This brought back some amazing memories of the fun and the pain of when I did it in 2017. You've got me hovering over the entry button for 2025 now!
      Congrats on getting through this proper epic race, chapeau!

    7. Very well done!!! I love these types of videos!

      It’s really cool to see the guys coaching on their respective disciplines and being receptive to being coached themselves. Rich was a great coach and support to Blake! What an achievement for you both! 🥰🙌🏽
