I discovered your channel after the death of my sister Chris in 2021, and you and Mouse were my only source of laughter in those darkest days. Chris was a nurse who had rheumatoid arthritis (and secondary immunodeficiency from her meds at times). I've donated during every cyclethon in her memory, but learning more about PI from the Immune Deficiency Foundation (through you and Mouse) made me realize that my other sister might have immune deficiency based on all the weird illnesses she gets. She's working with her doctor to get screened, and while we don't yet know whether it's a form of PI, she's at least looking for answers, and her doctor is using resources from the IDF to get them. So you helped me deal with the loss of one sister and might indirectly have helped another of my sisters live a healthier life. Thank you to you and Mouse for all you do to support people with PI, and to brighten people's days. I watched the eclipse on day 8 of this cyclethon. It was the last thing I had planned to do with Chris. And then we finally buried her cremains on the last day of the cyclethon. The anniversary of her death was two days ago, and now the cyclethon video is out. She did so much for charity, especially for those who suffered from chronic illnesses even beyond her career as a nurse, and now once again, your content has comforted me during these milestones.
I'm so sorry for your loss, and even though I don't know you I really do admire the strength you've shown through such a challenging time, I hope I can become as brave as you one day.
As someone who has also lost a sibling, and as someone who lives with a severe disability - my heart is with you and I hope you know what a wonderful brother you are to her and to her memory. My deepest condolences on your loss - and I'm glad that like many of us - you found this channel and this community for joy.
Connor never intended to be any kind of philanthropy creator, but ended up doing all this amazing work because it just meant something to him. Rather than simply donating to different popular charities, he's instead laser-focused on his mission to help one cause that's in great need of aid and awareness. Just like in research, you gotta identify your scope and parameters in order to make any real advancements in the world. Now he's helped the IDF get legislation passed for insurance coverage in healthcare, and grant travel scholarships to hundreds of individuals for the 2024 PI Conference where medical professionals and patients alike connect. It cheapens his value if people outside the community just pigeonhole him as a "philanthropist guy", but you honestly can't deny it: the man is genuinely making differences in the real world and it makes him stand out amongst a lot of creators.
I always love it when someone who seems to not be part of "the community" here suddenly mentions him on TH-cam. It's the most awesome thing. I think I started watching back when he was the "93%" and I'm so, so proud of how much he's grown since those early days. May his star keep rising 😊
Hey, I made the video! I was the guy on rollerblades at 25:50 Well done, my guy and congrats on your big achievement. I've been following you since Trash Taste started and even managed to come to Japan as an ALT back in 2023. Can't wait to see what you do next.
@Meliodas-xs4jc One part coincidence, one part planned. I'd only moved to this city (by happenstance) a few weeks before. When I realized they were gonna pass by, I felt like I should go show my support in person since I had the chance. I also needed to go get groceries that day, and I was heading to the store.

As someone who has been watching since you did Sebastian phone calls, it is absolutely incredible how much you've grown and just how much you are giving to the community. Seriously, as a viewer I literally could not be more proud to even be a part of this amazing community, and Connor I am SO freaking proud like this is absolutely insane, and I genuinely cannot wait for what comes next.
about to rawdog this whole video with no timestamps in one go. (it must have been quite the effort to compile this video, thank you for all the effort that you put into it and providing for a great cause! )
I totally agree - another channel who does alot of marathons is Kara and Nate and they go thru it every single time its absolutely amazing the human body and how far it can be pushed in these conditions T_T
Move over Olympics, this was the event of the year! I watched the vods, watched most of Pete’s vods with vangang, checked out Connor’s breakdown after, watched Paul’s breakdown, saw Chris’ miraculous video about it, and now this. LETS GOOOOO!
I hope the community joins together to nominate him for a win at the next Streamer Awards! He deserves both a full celebration of this success and a distraction to keep him from worrying about topping himself next time lol
My Japanese friend was at the end of the Cyclethon at Tokyo Tower, and he recorded the duo finishing the journey. Connor and Chris are Twitch athletes, good show boys!

As much as I like to shit on Connor for being British, I’m genuinely proud of him and his community for raising over 1 million dollaroos for a great cause
Thank you for the 14 days Cyclethon stream!!! I was tuning in every day, and it was a shift of pace for me in my mundane life. I was filled with happiness seeing you all pedal through all the beautiful mountains, lakes, towns, and scenery every day, without fail. Not to mention that the entire journey was filled with many, many kinds of great moments to watch too. Comical, chilling, exciting, cheeky, suspension, dramatic, hardships, heartwarming, rewarding-you name it. All these have happened in these 14 days, and I felt really fortunate to be able to watch this time's Cyclethon. I still vividly remember the well deserved ending you all got for the dedication and hard work you all have put in. It was very touching to watch it on screen at the end, under the Tokyo Tower. Amazinggggg. Nonetheless, well done lads!!! Hope for another successful Cyclethon in the future, if there's any in planning! **btw, is the Tubbathon with Chris happening??? 😂
I think it's easy to watch these sorts of videos and forget how amazing it is that the team were able to do this, it's actually bloody insane and I hope the next cyclothon can raise even more and I can't wait to donate!
I joined the channel a little after before he released his second cyclathon and his video is what inspired me to start my own biking journey! I've gone hundreds of miles because of these videos
For the past two years I've been helping take care of a loved one home with hospice. It's left me a bit disheartened to put it mildly, but more than anything, it's made me appreciate going out on walks in order to get some fresh air and clear my head. I've been living vicariously through these cycleathons for a while now, and I really do appreciate them. I love Japan, and since I'm stuck at home a lot, these videos help take my mind off things. God bless, and have a wonderful day.
He is literally the main character. He got sides that I agree with, but also absolutely horrendous takes. Yet at the end of the day, he helps people in need. Truly a main character traits.
I was lucky enough to be in Tokyo to see the bois finish IRL. One hell of a moment and a precious memory. Connor's final words in this video not only got him, but me emotional as well. I love this community and I feel honored to call myself part of it. What an awesome achievement and I can't wait for Cyclethon 4, whenever or wherever that will be; though I wonder how they'll top this one. And let's not forget all the other charity events, like the auctions. Connor: You're a real one. Thanks a lot to Connor, Chris, Pete, Paul, Ian, Nabi, Geex+, Mouse, the IDF, the guests, the sponsors and anyone else who helped make and support this amazing cyclethon. Also: The thumbnail artwork for this video is fantastic.
Being able to have experienced this entire 2 week journey, start to finish, will be ingrained into my memory for a long time. Seeing that donation goal just breeze past $750 thousand, $800 thousand, $900 thousand, and $1 million on that last day really puts into perspective just how highly we, as a community, value Connor. The only hope I have going forward is that I'll be there for Connor's next charity event, because I know that even if we aren't raising an insane 1 million again, we'll be showing up just like last time.
I can't wait to sit back and watch the best 4-hour Cycleathon movie; I genuinely loved tuning in every day for the stream, and watching the finale live drowned me in happy tears. Never been more proud of my favourite TH-camr. Thank you so much Connor, for restoring my faith in good people, along with Chris, Garnt, Premier Two, Felix, and everyone involved. Can't wait for the next video (whether it be a big-budget trip or even a Black butler prank, wacky weekend would be pretty sweet too)
You are a HUGE inspiration. Thank you for all that you guys do and the amazing content you make. It warms soul knowing that you, Chris, Mouse, Pete and the whole crew are out there in the world doing such amazing good.
I remember tuning into the stream whenever I stayed up or just as background noise while I was asleep. The final stream was so exciting with how much was raised!
Watched this in the background while playing but man... The ending I had to go fullscreen and just rein in the emotions. Great job! You've achieved something on such a level that barely anyone would in their entire lives.
As soon as I saw Connor on the swing I immediately thought "He better launch himself off it like I did when I was a kid". Very happy to see immediately after that he did exactly that.
You're an amazing person Connor. I watched live through each of your cyclethons and you legit made me cry each time. This one was no different. One of my best friends is going through this and has had this foundation help them. Thank you so much for all that you do. Bless your heart sir
Congratulations Connor and Chris, and thank you to everyone involved. Also huge thanks to the chat and every who donated money. What a great event, what a great cause. Big love from Germany!
Thanks to Connor, Chris, Pete, Paul, Ian and other folks, guests in front of the camera and behind the scenes. Not forgetting the donners, views and lurkers, so proud of you all. What happened to scan the navy in, iykyk? Glad I watched some live , some vods but was there for the end even though the stream of course borked.
The literal definition of Giga Chads. Everyone involved with this event deserves the up most respect for everything done to make this as incredible as it was. Can't wait for the next one!
I love having these videos playing in the background. I've been stuck indoors a lot the past couple years, taking care of someone home with hospice, and I've been living vicariously through Conner and Chris. Thank you for good vibes, guys.
Love it or hate it, I personally love hearing the Final Fantasy XIV copypasta from the TTS. This video, and the past cyclethons, have been a blast to watch.
I love your work and I love the hope you have given people through this charity. As someone who watched majority of this journey live on stream all I can say is it's the most amazing thing I've ever watched live. Keep doing what you're doing, you guys are all awesome!
What an absolute joy to watch this again. 4 hours really flew by. Amazing movie, 'cause it literally is, and amazing charity fundraiser. All the blessings to you and Chris both~
The whole cycle was amazing. The suffering you all endured for a good cause was inspirational. For some reason though, the sad music when you thought your sunglasses were broken really got me, lmao.
Hello, this is the Day 7 Laura speaking! You're very welcome for the biscuits, and thus you're welcome for the ammo that almost took out Chris with the Bogdanoff joke! Much love to the whole Cyclethon crew!
In chris' video, he included day 1 when you guys said you would be in luck that the cherry blossoms should be in bloom the whole way to tokyo. I was so disappointed to not see that many shots of it included in the video. Really appreciate those bits making the connor edit.
what banger content it took me 3 days to finish but it was worth it. thanks for all your hard work both Connor, Chris and the crew and especially to Pete. for me Pete just absolutely smashed it the vibes were immaculate.
AAUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHH emotional eneding i didn't expect that one on one talk with connor ;00 so amazing!! we're all connected on this earth love this community :'o
Bro of course I was gonna watch the whole thing, watching the original streams was so inspiring that it was a mad feat to condense those two weeks into one video, huge kudos to Team Mudan and Ianicorn for the editing! And a huge congrats to everyone involved, still such an amazing achievement and we got some cool FFXIV streams out of it huehue
4 HOUR VIDEO from ConnorDawg, bruh. I'm in. Love the fact yall did this and raised so much for the IDF. I watched a few of the vods, but seeing an edited video is something else. Bless your editors for the effort put in!
I genuinely started tearing up after seeing the ending portion of the video. Witnessing the absolute JOURNEY you went through to raise money for the IDF to help people like mouse and seeing all the crazy antics that went on, to then see how it all culminated in the end with such a personal address to your audience, THIS is what made me a life-long viewer of your content. YOU are an absolute legend Connor and I hope to be half as great a man as you are for all the good that you've put into the world. Keep being awesome, though it's not like you needed me to say that. You will forever and always be my favorite creator, even if I never get to meet you in person.
I have been on every stream without missing a beat, falling asleep to it and waking up when you cheered at the finish line of the day. Yet I watched this entire video and it has made me cry once more. Connor, Chris and the crew you have done a great job. This just goes to show how big of a heart yall have to power through 14 days of hard exercise to help people that really need it. You make a world a better place. Congratulations once more !! Can't wait to be there on next cyclethons !!!
I'm so glad to be apart of this community and to be able to see you start from having funny prank calls to trying out a bunch of new things in japan to gaming and all the cyclethons. its really special to see you go through that whole journey, and to see how much you've always cared and always wanted to help people. you're helping so many people already with you making content, and now your helping so many people with all the cyclethons and charity auctions its really admirable and just honestly one big insane journey. and i'm sure everyone can agree with that :))
I have been watching this in increments and this is the greatest thing I’ve seen in a long time! You Guys ROCK!! I would love to do something like this in the near future.
This is just simply simply lovely. From begining to end, everything was amazing. Congrats Connor on achieving this crazy milestone And don't forget that IDF stands for Ironmouse Defense Force
It's so nice to see this all assembled! I couldn't afford to donate money at the time of the actual cyclethon, but you did inspire me to check in my area for a place to donate some plasma! So thanks for that, and I'm glad I could participate too in some small way :)
These guys must have gotten in such good shape after this. They should have gotten a Copenhagen wheel for these hills! I was dying sitting in my computer chair watching these hills. Watching the donations come in I can feel the emotions from everyone trying to help with this disease and support all these wonderful people at the same time. What a wonderful time to be alive and able to see all of Japan from the comfort of our own homes. We vicariously took a road trip with you all and at the same time got to know these strangers
I didn't expect Chris to beat Connor to uploading the video, but I guess it's payback for being so late last time. Garnt's monk training really came in handy but Joey absolutely has to show up for one of these eventually, he can't keep running. Chris got them frog legs when he struts wide on that bike. Lego Land was probably the coolest location on any Cycleothon trip, absolutely top of my bucket list for Japan after seeing it here. Soak For Hope really needs to happen now! Teared up at the end there a bit, proud of you and this community!
i don't really watch twitch streams, so i was pleasantly surprised to see this appear on my sub box in video form as well. i'm so proud of you connor and chris, every single guest and staff member who made this happen, and also every single person who watched and donated. congratulations on this huge achievement!
Lots of great moments and an amazing result... Congratulations on a million raised. That said, what sticks out right now, when Connor was giving his longest "beanz", Chris's confused look back? Hilarious.
I watched the stream for a few days, so it was nice to catch up on the rest of the days I missed. However, I just finished watching Chris's video of cyclethon 3 and I thought man, Chris totally did not include his duck water bottle it was so memorable. I am pleased to see Conner did not skip it out and it has made a prominent spot in this 4hr video as I sit here laughing.
Very nice content. When I could I watched it live, staying up all night but I had a great time. Congratulations guys, really great achievement. What now? Will there be that special with big bathtubs? Or Tour de Japan ~wacky~ Connor/Chris edition. Anyway stay awesome boi's. Also take Joey with you.
Sat through the entire length and wow. I'm so proud if this community!!! That ending almost got me 😅 great work to the whole cast/team you are all amazing. And you connor are amazing, keep it up🎉
Connor might not realize, but he is the GOAT, maybe not for everyone, but he is to all of us that have been following him through out his journey, really he is such an amazing content creator to follow and support
I commented when I started watching but I gotta comment again now I've finished. This is probably one of my all time favourite videos on TH-cam. It had a very timely release for me as I've had one shitty week and coming back and watching another day of the Cyclethon has been something I've had to look forward to. So entertaining, so inspiring and so wholesome. It must be the fifth or sixth time I've watched the finale and I tear up every time. I can't wait for another Cyclethon, but topping this one will be no small feat.
I was watching the last couple hours of Day 14 on my phone at work and.. witnessing something so incredible and heartwarming made it hard to not shed a tear. When you guys finally arrived at Tokyo Tower I just had to cry. I was so proud of everyone, you guys, the van gang, the community... It was an amazing 14 days and I'm glad I was part of it. Thank you Connor. And thank you everyone.
Incredible work. Connor, Chris, Pete and all the guests and staff. Absolutely sick. Last day was hype. 300k in one single day was insane. Hope I can be there next year!
Congrats Connor, Chris, and Pete, such a monumental achievement! Of course, thanks to Mudan and Ianicorn for putting this together! Edit: I reached the end of the video, legit tearing up. Good job boys, it feels surreal watching you guys getting cheered on at the Tokyo tower. Keep up the amazing work, you guys are the best of us. Also, I didn't expect the sudden rune factory music, I thought there were three of us fans total lmao
Conor, and all of you. You show us what’s life’s really about. This is a timeless piece. It’ll stand for all time as example of what’s right in the universe. Biggest, and goldiest salute to you all. And may god grace us again.
Easily one of the best TH-cam videos i've ever watched. Good job to everyone involved in this whole cause. 🎉🎉🎉 P.S. Yes the ending made me sweat from my eyes too
My favourite part of any stream with Pete and Connor is where Connor explains something to Pete and he is left absolutely shocked, or realizes he has been misusing a word for way too long 😂 What an incredible Cyclothon last year, looking forward to the next one. Connor not only helping to bring awareness to important causes but also fundraising his ass off for them is so incredible, and he does it in ways that really draw in the people. Proud of him, and everyone that works on these adventures!

Definition of love
you are a real one, you and your sister both sound incredibly strong and kind, and i wish you all the best.
As someone who has also lost a sibling, and as someone who lives with a severe disability - my heart is with you and I hope you know what a wonderful brother you are to her and to her memory.

With a Hypeman like Pete, how can things not successed! Congratz on this amazing achievement!!!
I wasn't able to watch much of the streams, so I'm happy and excited to watch this !!!
SUPER proud of y'all reaching 1 million !!!
Being able to have experienced this entire 2 week journey, start to finish, will be ingrained into my memory for a long time. Seeing that donation goal just breeze past $750 thousand, $800 thousand, $900 thousand, and $1 million on that last day really puts into perspective just how highly we, as a community, value Connor. The only hope I have going forward is that I'll be there for Connor's next charity event, because I know that even if we aren't raising an insane 1 million again, we'll be showing up just like last time.
Perfect video to start out my day. Also congratulations everyone on raising the big 1 mill. 2 million next year's goal!!!
We making all the way round Japan next year lol
2 million lol good luck that’s not going to happen unless everyone puts their crypto into it
2 mill i dont know if we can make that but 1.5 mill seems possible now
The chat on the last day was insane - when we broke 1 mil, everyone went crazy and just wasted points lol
The jumpscare at 3:39:43 😆
Donation chat monke was popping up constantly with donations.
you will be insterested in 1:48:12
Bro dropped a director + editor's cut movie quality and my food and snacks are ready
Congrats on the cycle. Also the parts where you feed mouse and gave her head pats was super cute.
I can't wait to sit back and watch the best 4-hour Cycleathon movie; I genuinely loved tuning in every day for the stream, and watching the finale live drowned me in happy tears. Never been more proud of my favourite TH-camr. Thank you so much Connor, for restoring my faith in good people, along with Chris, Garnt, Premier Two, Felix, and everyone involved. Can't wait for the next video (whether it be a big-budget trip or even a Black butler prank, wacky weekend would be pretty sweet too)

@@Shdwoa Thanks, damn autocorrect :)
Feels like I'm watching LOTR 1-3. Truly epic journey.

Should I be waiting for the special edition with 30m of extra content?
You are a HUGE inspiration. Thank you for all that you guys do and the amazing content you make. It warms soul knowing that you, Chris, Mouse, Pete and the whole crew are out there in the world doing such amazing good.
I remember tuning into the stream whenever I stayed up or just as background noise while I was asleep. The final stream was so exciting with how much was raised!
Watched this in the background while playing but man... The ending I had to go fullscreen and just rein in the emotions. Great job! You've achieved something on such a level that barely anyone would in their entire lives.
playing what? Just curious :p
@@0Sluff7 Fair enough
I still remember when you guys crossed 1,000,000. Amazing stream to watch and be apart of
As soon as I saw Connor on the swing I immediately thought "He better launch himself off it like I did when I was a kid".
Very happy to see immediately after that he did exactly that.
You're an amazing person Connor. I watched live through each of your cyclethons and you legit made me cry each time. This one was no different. One of my best friends is going through this and has had this foundation help them. Thank you so much for all that you do. Bless your heart sir
Congratulations Connor and Chris, and thank you to everyone involved. Also huge thanks to the chat and every who donated money. What a great event, what a great cause. Big love from Germany!
Thanks to Connor, Chris, Pete, Paul, Ian and other folks, guests in front of the camera and behind the scenes. Not forgetting the donners, views and lurkers, so proud of you all. What happened to scan the navy in, iykyk? Glad I watched some live , some vods but was there for the end even though the stream of course borked.
The literal definition of Giga Chads. Everyone involved with this event deserves the up most respect for everything done to make this as incredible as it was.
Can't wait for the next one!
Just finished Chris' video yesterday. Now I get to watch another 4 hour banger!
I love having these videos playing in the background. I've been stuck indoors a lot the past couple years, taking care of someone home with hospice, and I've been living vicariously through Conner and Chris. Thank you for good vibes, guys.
Love it or hate it, I personally love hearing the Final Fantasy XIV copypasta from the TTS. This video, and the past cyclethons, have been a blast to watch.
Haha that edit with the pegging being explained to Pete was peak
1:48:20
Connor: "I'm not scared of you."
Deer:
Asserts dominance
Refuses to elaborate

Love the cyclathons guys and that you put yourselves trough such a challenge for a good cause.
I love your work and I love the hope you have given people through this charity.
As someone who watched majority of this journey live on stream all I can say is it's the most amazing thing I've ever watched live.
Keep doing what you're doing, you guys are all awesome!
What an absolute joy to watch this again. 4 hours really flew by. Amazing movie, 'cause it literally is, and amazing charity fundraiser. All the blessings to you and Chris both~
Congratulations to Connor and Chris and everyone that was involved! Also congrats to chat and everyone who donated and watched them the whole time!
Thanks!
Congrats Connor! Completing a 3rd one with further goals and inspiring people! Much love!!
i watched this like 4 times and i still can't get enough
everyone who worked on making this possible are so goated.
The whole cycle was amazing. The suffering you all endured for a good cause was inspirational. For some reason though, the sad music when you thought your sunglasses were broken really got me, lmao.
oh my GOOOOD, 4 hours?? That's better than I could've ever hoped for
This might legitimately be the best video on TH-cam I love Connor and this community ❤
I watch the stream, the VOD, the Paul Ballard edit, and now this, its still fun to watch every time till Im craving for another cyclethon 4 in 2025
Hello, this is the Day 7 Laura speaking! You're very welcome for the biscuits, and thus you're welcome for the ammo that almost took out Chris with the Bogdanoff joke!
Much love to the whole Cyclethon crew!
In chris' video, he included day 1 when you guys said you would be in luck that the cherry blossoms should be in bloom the whole way to tokyo.
I was so disappointed to not see that many shots of it included in the video. Really appreciate those bits making the connor edit.
what banger content it took me 3 days to finish but it was worth it. thanks for all your hard work both Connor, Chris and the crew and especially to Pete. for me Pete just absolutely smashed it the vibes were immaculate.
was waiting for this gotta watch it like movie
AAUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHH emotional eneding i didn't expect that one on one talk with connor ;00 so amazing!! we're all connected on this earth love this community :'o
Bro of course I was gonna watch the whole thing, watching the original streams was so inspiring that it was a mad feat to condense those two weeks into one video, huge kudos to Team Mudan and Ianicorn for the editing! And a huge congrats to everyone involved, still such an amazing achievement and we got some cool FFXIV streams out of it huehue
Absolute mad lad increadable job you guys did
Also love the selection of Mario Galaxy 2 background music
4 HOUR VIDEO from ConnorDawg, bruh. I'm in. Love the fact yall did this and raised so much for the IDF. I watched a few of the vods, but seeing an edited video is something else. Bless your editors for the effort put in!
I genuinely started tearing up after seeing the ending portion of the video. Witnessing the absolute JOURNEY you went through to raise money for the IDF to help people like mouse and seeing all the crazy antics that went on, to then see how it all culminated in the end with such a personal address to your audience, THIS is what made me a life-long viewer of your content. YOU are an absolute legend Connor and I hope to be half as great a man as you are for all the good that you've put into the world. Keep being awesome, though it's not like you needed me to say that. You will forever and always be my favorite creator, even if I never get to meet you in person.
Thank you for the editing Ianicorn❤
I have been on every stream without missing a beat, falling asleep to it and waking up when you cheered at the finish line of the day. Yet I watched this entire video and it has made me cry once more. Connor, Chris and the crew you have done a great job. This just goes to show how big of a heart yall have to power through 14 days of hard exercise to help people that really need it. You make a world a better place. Congratulations once more !! Can't wait to be there on next cyclethons !!!
Gigachad editor dropping a 4 hour highly edited video. Great work Ian 👏🎬
I'm so glad to be apart of this community and to be able to see you start from having funny prank calls to trying out a bunch of new things in japan to gaming and all the cyclethons. its really special to see you go through that whole journey, and to see how much you've always cared and always wanted to help people. you're helping so many people already with you making content, and now your helping so many people with all the cyclethons and charity auctions its really admirable and just honestly one big insane journey. and i'm sure everyone can agree with that :))
I'm gonna watch this every time I eat so I got a couple of weeks worth of video
I have been watching this in increments and this is the greatest thing I’ve seen in a long time! You Guys ROCK!! I would love to do something like this in the near future.
3:51:21 the most random spot ever but Alpharad and also Jaiden are just in the crowd behind pete...
This is just simply simply lovely. From begining to end, everything was amazing.
Congrats Connor on achieving this crazy milestone
And don't forget that IDF stands for Ironmouse Defense Force
It's so nice to see this all assembled! I couldn't afford to donate money at the time of the actual cyclethon, but you did inspire me to check in my area for a place to donate some plasma! So thanks for that, and I'm glad I could participate too in some small way :)
These guys must have gotten in such good shape after this. They should have gotten a Copenhagen wheel for these hills! I was dying sitting in my computer chair watching these hills. Watching the donations come in I can feel the emotions from everyone trying to help with this disease and support all these wonderful people at the same time. What a wonderful time to be alive and able to see all of Japan from the comfort of our own homes. We vicariously took a road trip with you all and at the same time got to know these strangers
I didn't expect Chris to beat Connor to uploading the video, but I guess it's payback for being so late last time.
Garnt's monk training really came in handy but Joey absolutely has to show up for one of these eventually, he can't keep running.
Chris got them frog legs when he struts wide on that bike.
Lego Land was probably the coolest location on any Cycleothon trip, absolutely top of my bucket list for Japan after seeing it here.
Soak For Hope really needs to happen now!
Teared up at the end there a bit, proud of you and this community!
Nah joey would ruin it.
i don't really watch twitch streams, so i was pleasantly surprised to see this appear on my sub box in video form as well. i'm so proud of you connor and chris, every single guest and staff member who made this happen, and also every single person who watched and donated. congratulations on this huge achievement!
dude Pete is such a cool guy and such a good friend
Lots of great moments and an amazing result... Congratulations on a million raised.
That said, what sticks out right now, when Connor was giving his longest "beanz", Chris's confused look back? Hilarious.
Thank you to Ianicorn for the banger edit! I love that he kept in all the funny TTS 😂
I watched the stream for a few days, so it was nice to catch up on the rest of the days I missed. However, I just finished watching Chris's video of cyclethon 3 and I thought man, Chris totally did not include his duck water bottle it was so memorable. I am pleased to see Conner did not skip it out and it has made a prominent spot in this 4hr video as I sit here laughing.
Very nice content. When I could I watched it live, staying up all night but I had a great time. Congratulations guys, really great achievement. What now? Will there be that special with big bathtubs? Or Tour de Japan ~wacky~ Connor/Chris edition. Anyway stay awesome boi's. Also take Joey with you.
Sat through the entire length and wow. I'm so proud if this community!!! That ending almost got me 😅 great work to the whole cast/team you are all amazing. And you connor are amazing, keep it up🎉
Connor might not realize, but he is the GOAT, maybe not for everyone, but he is to all of us that have been following him through out his journey, really he is such an amazing content creator to follow and support
I commented when I started watching but I gotta comment again now I've finished. This is probably one of my all time favourite videos on TH-cam. It had a very timely release for me as I've had one shitty week and coming back and watching another day of the Cyclethon has been something I've had to look forward to. So entertaining, so inspiring and so wholesome. It must be the fifth or sixth time I've watched the finale and I tear up every time. I can't wait for another Cyclethon, but topping this one will be no small feat.
Waching the cyclethon live was kinda surreal, glad I can sit down and rewatch it!
I was watching the last couple hours of Day 14 on my phone at work and.. witnessing something so incredible and heartwarming made it hard to not shed a tear. When you guys finally arrived at Tokyo Tower I just had to cry. I was so proud of everyone, you guys, the van gang, the community... It was an amazing 14 days and I'm glad I was part of it.
Thank you Connor. And thank you everyone.
wait an hour ago?
man i kept watching all the vods and clips feeling like this video was out long before
What are you doing here
Incredible work. Connor, Chris, Pete and all the guests and staff. Absolutely sick. Last day was hype. 300k in one single day was insane. Hope I can be there next year!
Congrats Connor, Chris, and Pete, such a monumental achievement! Of course, thanks to Mudan and Ianicorn for putting this together!
Edit: I reached the end of the video, legit tearing up. Good job boys, it feels surreal watching you guys getting cheered on at the Tokyo tower. Keep up the amazing work, you guys are the best of us.
Also, I didn't expect the sudden rune factory music, I thought there were three of us fans total lmao
Conor, and all of you. You show us what’s life’s really about. This is a timeless piece. It’ll stand for all time as example of what’s right in the universe. Biggest, and goldiest salute to you all. And may god grace us again.
We riding with this one boys!! 🗣️🔥🔥
God speed Mudan.
W vid, bro has some dedication, gotta love the content this man does 🙏
Not all heroes wear capes, they do occasionally wear Welsh flags though.
Easily one of the best TH-cam videos i've ever watched. Good job to everyone involved in this whole cause. 🎉🎉🎉
P.S. Yes the ending made me sweat from my eyes too
Bro when I tell you I actually cried at the end!
My favourite part of any stream with Pete and Connor is where Connor explains something to Pete and he is left absolutely shocked, or realizes he has been misusing a word for way too long 😂
What an incredible Cyclothon last year, looking forward to the next one. Connor not only helping to bring awareness to important causes but also fundraising his ass off for them is so incredible, and he does it in ways that really draw in the people. Proud of him, and everyone that works on these adventures!
