What a magic moment when he's flying down the mud-DH section and everyone single person that passed him on the climb is walking their bike...

Also one of the dudes(red, black and white outfit) that passed him was on flats. No way that dude was getting through the mud by riding flats. He has to walk it! Juss sayin.

He had 26" on his 27,5" bike… for bigger space between frame and tires, so the mud didn’t block his wheels

This was the hardest race I've ever done, the conditions were much worse for the ladies and challengers race the day before the main race. This dude ran skinny tires and took it easy on the top part unlike the other lads who hammered it then got exhausted by the mud. It took me 2 hours to finish and the longest time was 4 hours. Saw so many broken men in the challengers race

ahhhh. the truth comes out. stuck in the pack would absolutely suck. no chance at speed with so many people walking their bikes even on the shale sections not too mention the snow.

That mud must be like what it was like in the battle fields during world war 1? utter sticky crap! just a battle to stay upright let alone any forward progress. wicked skills!

At 22:38, I quote / translate: " f*cking XC"

. That guy does not like pedaling on flat
Would love to see a coverage with a nice Pinkbike style article as they did last year.
Really enjoyed it. Great pics, nice touch of humor, and a few snapshots of bikes destroyed during the race ... Aouch

Maybe next year, if they don' t put the Mega AND the EWS at the same time.Nice timing.

First time at the mega and gutted to race on Saturday as I finished 36th in qualifier. It was a total mud bath and unrideible in places but its made me more stronger as a rider,(86out of 310)and I've got unfinished business with that mountain!! Bring on alarmaaaa
