 I appear in Wolfpack’s video at 1:45, overtaking him on the turquoise Propain just after the guy decks it. What a race that was though! Made a huge route error on the moon rocks and lost about 10 places but clawed a few back to finish 17th. On my knees at the end, so physically hard!

 Ben Moore just failing to mention that it was the ebike race he went from 104 to podium in. He is the king of leaving out little bits of information and making it sound like he achieved more than he has. It would be great to see Stefan Peter get some much deserved publicity having won the main race for the second year in a row.

 @tempo123: 104th to podium on that course is an epic achievement whether on ebike, normal bike or camel! Should be celebrated not hated on. He’s had plenty of podiums on standard bikes, fair play to Ben i say.

 @tempo123: Just how much information should Ben submit? Shame other riders don't have the initiative or positivity like Ben does behind the scenes on videos and promoting the event. I'm sure Ben would love to hear from you directly on his 'king' status!

 @JohnWestbrook1 @nlbtaylor : What years did he podium on standard bikes? Cannot see that in any results...
Nothing against ebikes, they are great, but the level of competition in the ebike race is dramatically different to the standard race so you would hope for at least enough information for it not to be misleading... It cheapens someone who finished 50th in the standard race but would comfortably beat Ben to not have the distinction of which race it was.
Otherwise I could race the Megavalanche Amateur version - finish 20th and claim I finished 20th at the Megavalanche. It isn't a lie, just misleading. He does that kind of thing a lot I have noticed, thus the comment.

I do not think Nico Vouilloz would say he won the EWS overall title last year in any interview or social media post. He would specify it was the ebike series.

 One of the best races I have ever done. Such a great atmosphere but also I was so scared at the start. Survived the race and lived to tell that tale with some amazing memories. Definitely should have more coverage than it does.

 I'll watch a bunch of them on Youtube. Best race on the planet. The guys up top, but not in the lead pack, always put on a good show.

 The most underestimated show on the planet... This event live would pull away F1... Being so old... someone really had to mess it up a lot to not let it flourish as it could be...

 I’d like to see more mass start racing at the pro level. IMO the most exciting racing format

 Took 25 years to realize this to so many... Now we see Enduro is absolutely dead show the truth might start arising I see... I ve been flagging here each season for this to happen...

 Most gripping part was watching the dude in the first video weaving through the barriers at the finish rocking that wheelie. At full speed no less, I was waiting for the catastrophic mistake. Thankfully it never came.
