Thanks everyone for all the kind words and messages, this truly was a monumental effort by everyone involved especially behind the scenes both before and after the event and i know they appreciate these positive comments as well. Happy shredding everyone and see you out on the trail 👊
-
The edit on this one was top notch! Great video well done Rich.
-
Brilliant video!! I also did it solo, and had the pleasure of riding/chatting with Rich for a few a sections. The video really captures the event. Excellent camerawork.
-
Rich when you do these kinds of events, you don't just entertain us, but you inspire us. So, yes you should absolutely do more of these events. You make me want to get out more on my mtb and actually clock more miles in rather than just head down the trails...
-
Rich`s ability to always stay positive even in the worst of times is amazing! He is one of kind! Great ride!
-
* Curiosity question I’ve always wanted to ask * For epic events like this, was this something Rich wanted to do and went to GMBN about, or is this something GMBN wanted to film and asked one of their presenters to compete in?
-
One of the best and inspirational MTB films ive seen in a while
-
What Hank is to GCN, Rich is to GMBN. A true challenge monster. Total respect and admiration here. What an inspiration. I got a bit emotional at the end when he finished, all mud covered and exhausted. Well done Rich. Kudos!!!👍❤
-
That was beyond impressive....great video...that was very extreme...I don't think I could ever train enough to finish that race...cheers to all the competitors ....🇨🇦
-
Congratulations to Rich' & the team! Think that was the best GMBN video I've seen yet.
-
Remarkable ride and shared perspective. Great job Rich! The video production was top notch with the transitions and overlays. Just super well done and a pleasure to watch given the grueling effort of a 24-hour race.
-
These videos are so fantastically made! Well done Rich!
-
This is why he and Hank are the best presenters, great video!! 👍👍👍 I’d love to have half the engine these boys have. Brilliant.
-
Epic achievement Rich 👊🤘 That race looks brutal but tempting. As you say add the word RACE to any event and you can't help but push that little bit more than you normally would on a challenge. Awesome video #GMBN
-
What a race! What an effort to attempt it! Great ride. Great rider. Great support team. Great filming and editing. All in all exemplary. Thank you Rich, Amy and the rest of the crew.

This video is next level - the highest amount of respect given from myself, I can struggle in normal races by not pacing correctly, but this is next level! Well done on your monumental life achievement!
-
Inspirational is all I have to say!! Always great to see you take on these challenges with such gusto! Well done to you and your crew Richard, great Video GMBN!

Love Rich and all his extreme challenges. The man is a unit. Love this sort of video. Cracking edit. Thank you for showing the warts and all. Hats off to the support crew too. Would like a longer video. What a great event too
