Craziest & hardest mass start mountain bike race I have ever done! Megavalanche in Reunion Island was a challenge of bike, body, and mind! Check out the full race run, complete with commentary and live position counter!

@@wolfpack_adventures your overtake was more logical, there was a vehicle on the other side of the road, and you needed the momentum. He's overtake was stupid, the road was clear, but he chose to overtake where there was little space, and did it silently, such situations often result in a crash, in case of contact. you're in your safe spot mentally, not expecting contact due to the open space on the other side....... lovely video. love the subs

Good that there's no loud music or anything, just listening to you working hard which makes one appreciate it even more because you loose so much of it if you just throw some music over. Then you get all the ambient noises as well which adds to the immersion.
