In the words of that great philosopher, Harold Francis Callahan, ‘A man’s got to know his limitations’. Chapeau for knowing when to say enough, especially when you must have some degree of thinking about your obligation to sponsors. I would like to echo the other comments - there is great authenticity to your videos which is endearing and inspiring in equal measure. Thank you 👏👍
Thank you, I appreciate you saying that. It’s definitely a stress too to be honest but yeah sometimes it’s important to r member health is the most important thing
Videos like this are what sets you and your content apart from your RUclips cycling counterparts. You provide valuable insight on what it takes and what happens behind the scenes, so to speak. Challenges that you face and overcome are what makes you resilient and anti fragile. Chapeau 🎩
Thank you Adam. I appreciate you saying that too
If anyone wants to do this race your videos are a must watch. The insight you have into how hard it is both physically and mentally, and high lighting the beauty of the area, thanks to JB. Hope some of the comments you've had hasn't put you off sharing this sort content in the future. ❤
Bucket list event for me🎉. Well done, Chris
Thank you
What I've learnt from you is it's hot. It's really hot. Might be too hot.
Hot and humid this year weirdly
Not an ideal combo 😂
Your followers don't care if you win, succeed or fail miserably, your positive personality and give it a go attitude, is what we love about you, a true inspirational RUclipsr 👍

You’re an inspiration. The perspective and commitment to sharing your story is a motivation for everyone, and grateful that you’re able to connect with the experience regardless of the outcome. Hope you’re doing well!
A brilliant insight into an amazing ultra experience. Thank you.
I am in a hotel In Capileira watching this. I have started from Almeria. Thank you for
Inspiring me to go on such a beautiful adventure !
Big chapeau bas for doing the Badlands so many times, big chapeau bas for sharing your vulnerability, as this is the sign of true courage and strength. You’ve been my „bicycle hero” for quite some time now, and after this video even more so. Thank you!
Afternoon Chris 👋
Thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts and to Jack for filming 👏......most impressive footage throughout.
Maybe one day Chris an Ultra somewhere organised by you and trusted friends? Have a great weekend.......notwithstanding yet more blummin grey skies & rain!
Always so honest and a wonderful narrative Chris even though you were unwell however a super little film mate. Heal up and hopeful you have less obstacles in your cycling pursuits moving forward. Always big love from Radelaide Australia.
Pro video for just a a cyclingyoutuber ten out of ten.
I met a 56 year old man riding a gravel/mountainbike here in Holland last year March. Never road a bike. Or did sports. Said he was going to do some mountainbike race thing in August in the south of spain with a friend. It was this event Hadnt trained at all or was planning to train for it. It blows my mind how people think they can "just do" these kind of things. Or even one day very tough events.
And Chris, good luck on your next adventures.
Really beautifully shot film guys. Felt literally like you were cycling through a western at times....amazing. Also a lovely tone set with the pieces to camera. Well done!
10 out of 10 as always, not the cycling but the human piece, this males for the best content. Greetings from down under
How many people have really pushed themselves in the way that you have mate? To the point of breaking and beyond!
You should be very proud of yourself 💪🏼
Also a wonderful guy who is comfortable enough to share how hard some of this shit is ❤
i know youtube comments don't often get read, but you provide superb videos and information. keep it up!
unbelievable content!! premiere! thank you
Great video Chris, as someone who scratched 650k into a 1000k audax event recently most of your thoughts resonate with me. There’s always next year and your health is certainly wealth.
Thank you. Same for you there’s always next year too
Be kind to yourself, you’ve had so many successes and awesome adventures. More will come. Keep your head held high 😊
Thank you
Love the honesty. Life is about experiences and learning. Great effort.
Thank you
Hi Chris, thank you for sharing your reflections and processing of the circumstances. You bring a wonderful perspective on the event, the people and the land, and it shines through in the support you show for those involved. The footage and quality of the videos / editing is brilliant. Well done.
Thank you Tom, I appreciate your comment
not to do it again 😊
I’ve never raced , but have downloaded the tracks and done most of the route, the thought of racing it blows my mind. It’s hard enough in tour mode !!
Bet that was good fun though

Great video. Been a follower since the first 107 event. I really enjoy your connection with the natural reality of life. I struggle finding the discipline to even throw my leg over a bike these days, but your videos help 👍 I look forward to whatever your next challenge is Chis.
Appreciate you saying that. Thank you for following along for so long now too
Wow Chris - Amazing video. Big share on your part - feels like a direct relationship with how much you've shared and what we get to feel as viewers. And huge kudos to you for sitting down and capturing David's perspective, he had so many great and moving things to say - Thank you. Of course, you're letting folks in on one of the big secrets of ultra racing in that I've never connected so quickly and meaningfully with "strangers" before. Two minutes of riding together and you'll be damned if you leave each other stranded or in a bad way in the middle of the "big monster" you're experiencing together. There is a special and unique kindness between all of the participants, though best understood through experiencing it, I guess.
You’re completely right. It’s incredibly hard to explain that connection
Great film. Kudos dude !
Thank you!
excellent video thank you Chris👍
Very welcome
Came home from a ride and watched this one still in full kit, eating a sandwich. Chris thanks again for being a huge inspiration ❤ greetings from northern germany
I hope it was a nice sandwich
Can't wait to do Badlands next year. Epic.
It’s amazing
Very nice work!!
Thank you
Chris reminds me of pog in 2023 - not perfectly fit and disappointing TdF. Hope we can see him have a similar comeback with getting everything next.
Thousand thanks at this point - you have been a real motivation for me. Listening to you talking with Cade about being unfit in your late teens/ early 20s, then getting back into cycling and becoming one of the most decorated endurance athletes in the world, was a real motivation for me.
After months of training I am now also going for my first bikepackibg trip, where your vids have also been a huge support.
Thanks again and hope for a good turnaround next year.
