    Glad you've uploaded this for the sake of us amateurs who keep turning up every year looking for places to crash!
    I always take the high line there but it gets sketchier every year. There's no time to be saved either way. Last year, fighting for 45th in quali, someone tried to take me on the low line and put a Magic Mary imprint on my left calf which itched for ages healing up. So yeah cheers for that.
    Still, better than crashing out. Your quali run was sensational Liam so keep on keeping on!

      Haha always happy to help show a new place to crash! I've tried the high line there in the past and felt it was slightly slower and more awkward but in hindsight its not somewhere you can pass or be passed anyway so I'll be doing the high line from now on hahaha!
      Magic Mary imprint doesnt sound ideal but quite funny to look at im sure!
      Thanks, I'll be back next year and should do a bit better in the final haha

      @@LiamMoynihan Good luck then mate. You will have to pedal some to beat Hugo Pigeon though, lad cleared off up the climb like Marco Pantani on a coke and EPO bender

    Glad you are ok . Saw you on some other pov's . Looked a bit out of it at the side of the track.

      I was definitely out of it for about 30seconds, mostly winded but then felt fine! Had a sore head for a few days and still have a stiff knee but thankfully nothing serious!!

      Yeh was just starting to get going after the shambles I was for the first few minutes haha!! WIll be back for revenge on this race next year! Cheeeeers!

    Oooh ouch! That looked like a horrible crash. 😖 So glad that no bones were broken!!! You were doing so well too. What a shame!!
    I wish you the very best in future bike racing 👍

    • @LiamMoynihan
      @LiamMoynihan  2 месяца назад +1

      Haha it wasn't the most enjoyable crash I've ever had, being winded is never fun! Thanksfully no serious injuries like you say! Thanks for the nice words!

    Painful to watch. I've enjoyed a couple of your previous Mega runs so was dismayed to see your OTB disaster this year. It looked really bad on other riders' GoPro footage and your groans weren't encouraging either. Very glad to hear no bones broken or serious damage sustained. The early tech section seems gnarlier than the normal route and fairly quick too. Hope the aches and bruises have subsided. G'luck for the future

    • @LiamMoynihan
      @LiamMoynihan  2 месяца назад

      Thanks! Yeh i was just really winded and gasping for air, I knew at the time that the noises that were coming out of me sounded worse than the issue itself and that I;d be fine when i caught breath haha They were just fully uncontrollable noises haha! Hopefully I'll make up for it with a good one next time!!!

  • @Danny-vw1zq
    @Danny-vw1zq 3 месяца назад +1

    • @LiamMoynihan
      @LiamMoynihan  2 месяца назад

      Ahh yeh it was really frustrating, the top 5 were only just ahead!! Need to get back on that podium, next year should be the one haha!! Thanks

    • @LiamMoynihan
      @LiamMoynihan  2 месяца назад

      No real injuries thankfully! Just bashed and bruised plus winded initially which was a bit unpleasant! Ahh yeh Madeira was so fun!! Hopefully go back there again soon too!

  • @Leviathanical
    @Leviathanical 3 месяца назад +1

    We normally go high low but you guys up front have lines all your own, through the centre of things. Amazing to see for us mortals but I guess the margins are pretty fine. What a race, huh? It finds you out. See you there next year.

    • @LiamMoynihan
      @LiamMoynihan  2 месяца назад

      Yeh in hindsight I should go high in future! I've found that middle diagonla line to be faster but in reality it probably doesnt save enough time to be worthwhile haha!! Certainly isnt a passing spot so I'll prbably do high next time! See you there again next year! Cheers

    happy to see that your walk was normal after the accident , I wanted to see the fall a second time and I couldn't, it's hard to watch.

    • @LiamMoynihan
      @LiamMoynihan  2 месяца назад +1

      Ahh thanks! Yeh was mostly fine. Just really winded initially then had a sore head for a few days and some bruises etc but thankfully nothing serious!! Will be back next year to do a better job haha

    Any crash you walk away from is a good one, at least. Impressive stuff, still.

    • @LiamMoynihan
      @LiamMoynihan  2 месяца назад

      Really creepy looking in the mist! It's just one gondola station there, super cool and impressive when it's visible haha!

    @theweaselcat3564 2 месяца назад +1

    I have been wondering whose bike that was. I have seen it in a lot of other videos. Hope you are healing up Brother. Those rocks look sharp.

    • @LiamMoynihan
      @LiamMoynihan  2 месяца назад

      Haha yeh sadly mine! I was trying to get one of the spectators to warn people above to stay right so i could move it out of the way but it didn't really help, thankfully no other riders crashed because of the bike!!

  • @Hooderaw
    @Hooderaw 3 месяца назад +2

    Bro, I was wondering who that person was standing on the stand in about the 12 videos i saw. Hope you are OK!

    • @LiamMoynihan
      @LiamMoynihan  2 месяца назад

      Haha sadly that was me!! Yeh I'm all good, was just really winded initially which was very unpleasant when the bereathing and heart rate were already high!! No proper injuries thankfully!

    @FlyingMeta 2 месяца назад +1

    • @LiamMoynihan
      @LiamMoynihan  2 месяца назад

      Haha yeh wasn't the best place for the bike, I was trying to get a spectator to direct people right so i could pull it off the track and out of the way but it wasn't really working! THankfully no one crashed becasue of it!!

    I don't enjoy this year megavalanche race because of shorter course. The beauty of megavalanche race is only on the top of glaciers.

    • @LiamMoynihan
      @LiamMoynihan  2 месяца назад

      Yeh it's so much better starting up on the snow. Plus mountain of hell was cancelled so the two collest glacier races of hte year both didnt happen this year! Bad times, but I'll be back at them both next time!

    You were in top 8 when you crashed. You have ability to finish in top 5. Very unlucky.
