This has to be one of your best videos yet. It was a really good balance of glossy scenic shots against the harsh realties of preparation, unforseen mishaps and the rollercoaster of emotions. I'm sure your Unbound journey will see more great content like this !
prob one of your best vids man, editing content, B roll, awesome stuff had a couple friends make top 50 they said it was a brutal course....hope you will be back
Great video Tom, loving all your content. Has this event and experience soured your view on gravel or are you more determined now to use this experience to keep going with it?
Great video thanks Tom. Although most of my bike was a DNF I have evidence that my front wheel finished the race. You may have dodged another flat as the tire was soft next morning!
Bugger mate! I passed you just as you pulled over and was looking over my shoulder waiting for you to come flying past. That course was epic but certainly one that threw out a lot of mechanicals.
I feel somewhat vindicated now seeing you have issues with tubeless valves! I have had that issue and they can be a nightmare to get undone. Part of cleaning routine now to make sure they can be undone by hand and not pliers! Well done for finishing!

Appreciate that mate. I'll for sure be back next year
Awesome video.
I also recommend carrying some extra sealant (those small bottles) and valve tool. Could be quicker than putting a new tube.

Definitely more determined than ever to keep pushing with gravel! Happy I had these lessons now and not later on in the season or at Unbound
Great vid!
Living tha dream ❤
Keep working hard and chasing the dream Juggles! Very proud of you
Great video! Beautiful but sort of a hell of a ride too..

Haha yeah felt like it was on the way back down again

Yeah just bad luck really. Just happy to have finished
Yea totally! Dnf’s suck! Made great content for an epic video nonetheless! Best of luck for unbound 👍
nice vid tom. Very lucky to have finished
Cheers mate
Holy damn bad luck but glad you finished it. :)

I want to do this Race in 2025, but didnt realize you had to have a gravel bike. Does anyone do this race on a mountain bike?
Even when stuff goes wrong it's still good practice for unbound
Exactly and now I know what I need to do to prepare better
Awesome countryside
Well done bud. If it doesn’t kill ya it will make ya stronger. It is a weeee bit funny that you own a bike shop and your bike lets you down….😜
Tell me about it haha
what a dog
GRAVEL TOTALLY SUCKS.
