Great job capturing the craziness of Day 3. That hike a bike was no joke in the heat. Love the videos, can’t wait for day 4 and 5

Adventure day hike a bike! Loved it, I think I was one of the happiest on the hill, carry something on my back and put one foot in front of another is something I can do and it gave my poor hands a rest!

Wonderful job with the race footage and capturing the amazing scenery!

[@ScottyLaughland]

Thank you! Stoked to hear that!!

[@Daffra]

I'd probably die on that hike a bike but the scenery at the end is amazing. Stage 3 looked the most fun out of all so far.
Once again great content!!

[@sortofodd]

Trans Madeira such an awesome experience can’t wait to do it again .quick question about your tyre choice what casing and compound did you use on your big Betty and magic Mary thanks 👍

[@elvidasilva9218]

Just watching your video it gives me goose bumps. I am from the island living in UK atm and you're truly convinced me to want to join next year just watching your videos. What tips can you give in terms on what gear to take and any spares for the bike. BTW what camera and mount do you use?
Thanks for sharing your awesome videos! 😁👍🙌🙌

[@shannonmtb]

Looks an amazing place to ride wow. Physically demanding with sick trails. Sounds like you put yourself through it.
You using GoPro? What mount do you use to make it so stable?

[@isitTrekkable]

Was the travel choice pretty good or would you have chosen slightly longer in hindsight?

[@traildogisla]

I have to ask, how did you hit that big gap on stage 4 blind?

[@ScottyLaughland]

I guess a lot of experience of trail trust that the jumps are made to be made. If you rolled in to most things there you knew you were going to make them just due to the way the trail was made!

[@ToddNZMTB]

Looks so much like New Zealand, pine trees and gorse included 🙄
