Dude! You're an animal. At the start of day 4 you looked so knackered but kept the spirits high and finished strong. I was exhausted just watching this. What a legend!
Thanks for sharing Tom. Looked like a tough race schedule. One event you missed, that I think you would have cleaned up on would be a "Moo Off". For sure at least 2nd. 😁
I don't think Blake did the Dual Slalom or the E-Bike race, but otherwise did better on all the others. Although there seems to be a short travel DH category which wasn't mentioned in this. Blake was 14th/101 Enduro, 1st in DH Short Travel, 31/63 in XC (weirdly a different number of entrants so hard to compare!)
Wow! Gritty effort there! Beautiful shots too! Staying upright✅✅✅✅✅ Max efforts✅✅✅✅✅ Entertaining ✅✅✅✅✅ How did your five events compare with anyone else’s 5 event attempts?
The bike is solid and my Ebike conversion went great. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Very smooth ride at 30mph with no problems (135 miles ridden so far). The picture is a bit deceiving - there is WAY less space in the center of the frame than it shows. The suspension connection takes up the entire thing. So I needed to attach my battery on the bottom of the frame and my controller on the top. Instructions for assembly were lacking but honestly it wasn't too hard to figure out even though I have very little bike knowledge. Watched some youtube videos on adjusting the disk brakes but that was it. Still, I am loving it and very happy with the purchase.
Real freedom is when I can shoot my AR 15 at alligators on my front lawn, #taxation is theft, I love my cousin, that's why I married her, yeehaw, love jesus
@@pinkbike if ya got time you should try and swing by Colorado and check out trestle bike park in winter park. I know Christina just had a video in aspen but trestle is cool too! Plus we have some races coming up right around the corner!
Never saw any sea otters. but the lizard doing push-ups on the rock at 0:46 totally makes up for it!
🤣 🦎
@@Max-Power. 🤣🤣🤣
lol!

Ha thanks Parker! I lost count of how many dodgy campsite coffees I made - Tom
I love tom bradshaw, his like blake from gmbn that can do any race discipline without worrying anything. Keep up the good work mate..🤘🔥
Thanks heaps Varel! - Tom
Lol wonder where they got the inspiration for the video
Ironically, Tom got the most batteries in the emtb race.
How good aye - Tom
Better results than anybody could have hoped for in the e-bike race, nice work.
Thanks for sharing Tom. Looked like a tough race schedule. One event you missed, that I think you would have cleaned up on would be a "Moo Off". For sure at least 2nd. 😁
Pat - for PG13 reasons I coudn't incluyde all the footage from Saturday night.... - Tom
Was actually in tears watching this. Tom is hilarious and what a heroic effort
Thanks heaps Big Donut Barbell, stoked it made ya laugh - Tom
“a jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.” Full quote. Great job brother.
Changing his tires daily without a compressor - legend-level EXCEEDED!
Met Tom at Sea Otter but didn’t realize he was actually going through hell…absolute legend lol. This video cracked me up
So happy the whole world gets to see your mad exploits! Lots of love from Ed.
It would be interesting to hear how your Meta felt in every category since you built this Meta for Sea Otter.
@5:00 passing someone in triathlete tuck while riding in the least aerodynamic position known to men... well done.
@4:45 You can see the Rockshox flight attendant doing its thing…
I have to admit the dangerously pedally Enduro course down there was kind of ideal - Tom
So sick! I saw you out in the enduro, you were ripping! Good job Tom!
Thanks heaps mate! - Tom
Attaboy! Big respect for this absolute beauty.
Tom makes such good content! Psychs me up to get on my bike each week! Guys a legend!
Thanks heaps Kyle, that’s why we do it! - Tom
Yes!!! I'm all about doing everything on my short travel trail bike!
You clearly got 1st place in the fun-category!
Great video guys. Tom you're a nutter but that's why we love you. Kudos for that weekend I think stitched up sums it up nicely.
Ha thanks Paul! - Tom
Kinda funny that they made him self support instead of using the PB Team pit.
They don't even let me in the office most of the time! - Tom
Or at least send him down with a second set of wheels to minimize tire swaps. Heck, even just a second front wheel alone would've been nice!
You’re a legend for that bro. Must be fit man.
So since Pinkbike and GMBN did the same challenge, who finished better?!?
I don't think Blake did the Dual Slalom or the E-Bike race, but otherwise did better on all the others. Although there seems to be a short travel DH category which wasn't mentioned in this. Blake was 14th/101 Enduro, 1st in DH Short Travel, 31/63 in XC (weirdly a different number of entrants so hard to compare!)
Hey Bobby - Blake was out there crushing it too but we were in different categories :) I was in the "from the campground and pro category" haha - Tom
@@pinkbike haha I gotcha! Either way that’s awesome! Thanks for the reply, Tom!
A remarkably similar video to one that GMBN did last year.
Wow! Gritty effort there! Beautiful shots too!
Staying upright✅✅✅✅✅
Max efforts✅✅✅✅✅

How did your five events compare with anyone else’s 5 event attempts?
You're a beast, dude.
Ha thanks for watching Dylan - Tom
You’re a badass Tom thank you for the inspiration

Tom's a legend
Thanks heap WB you beauty! - Tom
Damn dud. You're hardcore. I'd never of thought when I only seen you on those awesomen bike check videos
Loved the GT4 comment! 😂
You're a true legend, Tom
Thanks heaps Bryn - Tom
well done m8 & to race in an ebike race without an ebike is awesome..lol

Would have won everything with the grim donut.
Tom is the greatest.
Love your work hardtail party - Tom
Sea Otter needs a full omnium category that includes XC!
I broke my leg on the first stage of the enduro.
I got a concussion in practice for the enduro
Bro the lizzerd d doing pushups in the background
Tom I saw your bike check on your Meta TR. Are you going to do a "long term review" on it? Would love to hear your thoughts!!
3:38 - 3:40 😂
DUDE, PURE INSANITY !!!
You nailed it bro
Thanks mate! - Tom
What a legend.
"You dropped your chain because you were using a chainguide." -Coby presumably.
What kind of chest Go Pro mount is that where it goes thru the shirt?
TOM BRADSHAW is a fucking badass!! Hilarious and badass at the same time
Ha cheers Jonathan you beauty! - Tom

This is basically what I do anyway. I only use my trail bike for races.
seaotter: The only event where you do a DH race on an S0 trail..
Such a nice dude🥳
But would it have been better on the hardtail Tom?
This is A1 content.
Legend!
Tyler TVC did this, you should have teamed up :)
we need a Poison Oak level check, i bet you were pretty itchy after 4 days riding out there.
Are you from around there
Someone scared the crap out of me telling stories on day 1 - I didn’t want anything to do with that carry on
Sick
Next time take 2 sets of wheels 🤣
Ah that would be too easy! - Tom
Tom newer get tired 💪💪💪
Whats the point of an ebike race?
Is this a freestyle bike
Great effort! Too bad I don’t understand anything he says… 😵
Fast Tony’s, I’ll look into it, there are captions but they sometimes get confused too
cool 😎
dude..u talk thru out it all !!!!!!!!!!! hahahaha....just like me , cant shut up n ride. lol
It was cool to see trail bike can handle every discipline these days, if you don't want to win, but why participate in e-bike race?
Obviously for the lolz
Is this the AM or TR?
It’s the Meta TR 👍 - Tom
Would really like to know the story behind 9:35
@streddaz ha I can't even remember when that happened - can make a story up if you'd though - Tom
@@pinkbike Hey, what happens a Sea Otter stays at Sea Otter? Hmm lol
He wasn't all there start of Day 4 lmao...
That was a very hictic ivint.
Welcome to the States! Unfortunately California isn't real freedom either but at least you got a taste.
I flew straight to Florida after this to film another project, stay tuned for that one haha - Tom
Real freedom is when I can shoot my AR 15 at alligators on my front lawn, #taxation is theft, I love my cousin, that's why I married her, yeehaw, love jesus
@@pinkbike if ya got time you should try and swing by Colorado and check out trestle bike park in winter park. I know Christina just had a video in aspen but trestle is cool too! Plus we have some races coming up right around the corner!
You also have the Commencal Bike Store in Colorado. Take your bike to to compare to their in stock options. 😉
XC is boring af, but we have to accept that those xc riders fitness is on point
Wait . . . E-bike race?? What is this world coming to?
Totally didn't copy gmbn
Yo bro how did they copy them if they had to do it at the same time?
Copied them with a time travel machine?
