Brother. I watched this race live from the States. Your performance was inspiring. My kids were watching too. They asked me why I was cheering for you and I told them about what I know about you through your CZcams channel and that I’ve been a fan of yours for years. Needless to say they started cheering for you too. Congratulations!
I've no words mate..outstanding
I found your channel in 2020 and thought your videos about your development were so sick. I live in Cali and every time I wake up in a morning when there’s a big cross race on I look to see how you did. Thanks for being such an inspiration with all your honesty through these videos.
Very proud of you mason. Im from belgium but seeing you become 2nd is honestly amazing. I was cheering for you all the way untill that finish line. On to a beautiful start of the season. As much as there will be up and downs, keep your head up. You're a beautiful human being and there is much more to come
"If you would have told 14 year-old Cameron that he'd be pushing for the win...he would have believed you." I like that. I have absolutely no idea who you are, but that is an inspiring thing to say. Great ride, and all best moving forward.
Great race. I saw when you caught up to the two guys in 2cd and 3rd (you were 4th). In the finish stretch, you tried to get them to help you chase. When they didn't... you shrugged your shoulders and proceeded to ride them off your wheel.
Very impressive.
Wow, that brought tears to my eyes. Lots of athlete's have big dreams but unfortunately not many get to realize them. You are there, you have put the work in and your bike handling is a master class for the other athlete's to try and replicate, I am so excited for you and looking forward to supporting you the rest of the season through thick and thin. Way to go Cam and a awesome video, especially for thanking all the folk that have supported you unconditionally over the years. You Rock Man!
I don't know you but I've been following and loving the journey you have made so far. From travelling to Belgian races with family, Trinity and now 777 (Cyclocross Reds). It has been a joy to watch your development as a Cyclocross rider! Now nothing is stopping you from that first big Belgian win. COME ON CAM!!!!!
Hi Cameron, i'm the cousin of Emeric Turcat and he told me about you last saturday. What a great achievement! Huge congrats! I will be in Tabir next february with 2 friends. Hope to see you performing there ! Cheers
We in Belgium are very impressed, Cameron. What a fantastic season sofar👍
You were amazing Cameron! My dad and I were watching and so impressed by how you kept everyone behind you. Us as Dutchies would normally support Lars, but we were cheering for you! Congrats and good luck for the rest of the cx season
What a race Cameron! You shined!
Loved that. Great editing, music and presentation but most of all.... what a performance. Your improvement over the last few months has been phenomenal and I always felt you would go well in this race, especially as the circuit became a quagmire with all those races shoehorned into one day. You really are the mud and gravel king.... it won't be long before you make that final step up to the top of the podium in the elite men's class. Chapeau!
Congratulations on that fantastic ride in France, Cameron!!! It was great watching you charge through the pack like that. Your confidence is growing, and you're making such big improvements this year. It's only a matter of time now before you're standing on that top step!
That was an epic race. The skills to keep it upright and banging in consistent lap times was awesome.
you will succeed cam, i watch your videos since 5 years, i see your upgrade and your shape growing, continue to show us how to ride a bike in the best way ever made. love you
For anyone who's never raced cx, it's impossible to appreciate just how hard it is to ride at that speed on a tricky, muddy track in those conditions. The skill and physiological effort are insane, only years of dedication and a huge amount of talent can give you those. Not done indeed Cam, just getting started in fact!
Cameron, I was so stoked to weigh in when you took the leap to Triple 7 and did so well in Overijse and it was so great to feel so vested in your progress. And then this! Not only is the substance of what you have achieved so great, but I want to thank you so much for creating such a great video channel for us all to have been able to come along with you. It is fantastic to get to share these highs. But what is I think maybe even more special about your channel, is that you have done a great job of showing the daily drudgery of hard work when things are just not "peak experiences", and also, the times when you are in that trough. When sometimes, it's just hard. There are setbacks and it's a struggle. So thank you so much for all of that. Congratulations, and thanks for having us along for the journey. I'm so excited to keep tagging along for the next chapter!
From Peel Park and travels with your Dad to here.. what a journey..what commitment..everything earned..nothing coming easy..WHAT A RIDE..!!
Great result Cameron, especially given the crappy grid position.
Recently, you have talked about what you have learned from Tom P, how those few final % can make all the difference. I hope after this race you've learned the most important lesson of all, you can win these races.
No more being delighted simply to ride in the company of these stars. You are one of them, go challenge them and bring back those wins.
We believe in you.
Great Race! When I stayed in Linlithgow I remember a couple of years ago seeing someone coming down Preston Road, turning around and going straight back up, and knew it must be you! Well done, all the hard work is paying off - good luck with the new team 👋
I never comment on videos but now I have to. Mega job Cameron! I remember the first time I saw you riding in one the "B" races here in belgium some years ago. I had my race a few hours earlier but wanted to stay and watch your race. You were an inspiration back then and now! Keep going!
Très très heureux pour toi 🙏🏼.
Je te suis depuis des début sur CZcams.
Quelle progression !!! C'est fantastique 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
From all of us that were screaming encouragement at the TV screen, well done. We're proud of you.
I watched the race live on Discovery Plus. To see you catch and pass Van Der Haar and then get so close to Vanthourenhout by the finish was fantastic. This video captures the essence of the day really well. Congratulations
Boy, this race was epic, congrats for the second place. One thing Marty MacDonald and Helen Wyman from GCN noted during the race is that you became the first non-dutch and non-belgian on the podium since the introduction of the elite European championships. That is amazing 😄
ooo Cam, you legend. From the oldschool hometrail riding clips from yearssss back to second place at europeans. Amazing to see this journey! Keep pushing
I have been following you from the time you started posting on social media. I underestimated you, never thought you had this in you. But I am glad you did. I loved watching that race, you won as far as I am concerned.
Fantastic result. Congrats on your achievement. Looking forward to see more of you in the future races. CX needs some new faces on the podium.
I marshalled at the MTB Endurance Nationals champs at Pippngford and saw you win and thought wow this kid has something special and I was correct 👍🏼 love your confidence and belief, I don’t doubt that next year it will be gold and many great results before that!! Congratulations Cam! 🥈🎉🇬🇧🎉🥈
Congrats Cam with your first ever podium at the elites and that at the euros, and that starting from the 3 row. 2 silver medals in the pocket. I think you proved yourself that you deserve a spot at the Alpecin team for next year. Keep up the good work. From a Belgium fan
Congratulations Cameron Mason, you are having a good seaon in cyclocross. Congratulations a big hug.👍
I started watching your YT videos years ago when you were driving to local races with your dad. At the time, I just loved the quality of the videos, it put me back into my local racing days. Never in million years would I have guessed you'd get a silver at the EU championships. Amazing, well done!
Impressive to see the evolution year after year, congrats Mason !
Always great to see an athlete so positive about a podium spot. Congrats on a massive achievement…….and a fantastic attitude.
This was brilliant to watch Cameron, and you absolutely deserve that silver!
We can't wait for the rest of the season, chapeau!
Keep pushing those limits and believe - that big win will come soon I’m sure 💪💪
Proficiat Cameron.
Heb je dat verdient, dat was een spectaculaire wedstrijd mooi om te zien.
Proficiat...
Dat is de begin! 😊
Absolutely buzzing for you. So thoroughly deserved and I fully believe you have more and better results ahead. You have the legs, lungs, heart and head of a champion. Chapeau Cam.
You not just became second, you showed the world that you were the strongest in the race, I think we can agree that it’s common sense that you would’ve won if you had a front spot
Started watching your YT with my son and we are both huge fans. We got to see you race at the HOPE series a few months ago and you made it look effortless. Not at all surprised that your effort and dedication is paying off. You should be very proud of your acheivement!!
I followed all the races this season, I could feel it coming, race after race, building confidence, getting stronger. So happy for you!!!
I'm hoping your starting on the front row very soon & saving that 2 or 3 matches.
This was so, so epic. I was in bits at the end...totally drained from screaming at the TV.
Well done laddie, the time is coming.....
congrats champ, impressive performance in super harsh conditions
First cc in france , i mean ? It seems that your French fans has been very happy to discover you on the track. Faboulous race.
Fantastic Cameron, followed you on CZcams for years and your Dads and your dedication pays off. Nice one.
Congratulations, you deserve all the success that is coming your way. I have followed you for years and am of the belief you are going to achieve some massive results. Keep going we are all behind you. This is just the start.
Another step forward. Keep going. De menos a más SIEMPRE.
ENHORABUENA CAMERON

As I said, I was cheering you each and every, but from the edge of my seat. Outstanding!!!
What an experience to see an athlete grow over the years like you did and reaching the pinnacle of the sport: an elite championship podium!! Amazing brother and goodluck this season, go get them!!

Hell Ya Brother!!! was crying with you at the end!!! Loved watching you from a kid with a boy bun to a MAN!!!
You getting this result has made me very happy. You are a true talent, but your resilience, grit and determination is the reason for your success.

Can't hit the like button often enough. Epic result. Chapeau, Cameron!
The last 90 seconds made the vid go from brilliant to incredible, amazing ride 🙌🙌🙌🙌
Yeah Cam, happy tears for you. Sky’s the limit my man. I’ve also been following you for a long time and you keep upping the ante every season and showing the world more. It’s inspiring, fun and because of the time you devote during your busy schedule to vlog, you have connected with so many of us from around the world who will continue to support you because of your vulnerability and humanity. Wishing you the best throughout the rest of the season.
You're not done yet....great performance....wish to see more of that.....a new champ
Faster than the wind, and harder than the rain. Brilliant race you did, and this video brings out more than the coverage did (that furrowed muddy corner, why didn't they stick a camera there?) And a storming message from this address. Top work. Keep on rattling those low countrymen.
Great ride today Cameron. We’re loving watching you ride! A win isn’t far away, keep it up and thanks for making all us UK cx fans smile 👍🏼
This is absolutely mega Camerooney!!!!
Watched it all unfold in those awful conditions, such a stunning performance on top of such an amazing year for you!
Chatting to you washing your bike at the Gralloch was so cool, just such a normal down to earth ‘time for everyone’ young man. 🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Can’t wait to see what you do next champ👌🏻☝🏼🥇🫡
Julian
This is amazing Cameron, thank you for sharing your truly inspiring story through all those movies over the years
Loving this man! No better words then your honest truth. Its a joy to watch you race, to watch you grow as a rider, but also the inside view you let us have to seeing you grow as a human being.
Congrats!
Best race I’ve seen for a long time. Epic result.
Great vid Cameron, love seeing you achieve your dreams. Keep doing your thing!!
Brilliant can’t wait to see what’s next.
Massive congratulations Cameron, this achievement is more than deserved. Been following you since your time at trinity. I truely respect the steady progress you made over the years. Your ability to take us along your journey in your videos is something to applaud. Keep up the good spirit and work. I'm sure you'll get on that top step some day.
So happy and excited for you and the British cyclocross scene
Just brilliant Cameron.
Huge congratulations in anticipation of even better to come.
Been following your channel for a few years now an I'm absolutely delighted for you. Onwards and upwards!
Cameron I had the pleasure meeting you at grit fest uk a couple of years ago. Absolutely brilliant watching you on Sunday edge of the seat performance !
Amazing race Cameron!
Been watching you and your vlogs for years now..absolutely made up for you Cam.great start to your season
Amazing, I've pretty much followed your channel from the start. And I feel like I've been watching an Eagle slowly hatch from the egg, and grow and grow and now he has made his first flight. Those Dutch and Belgian rabbits better be scared, there is a Scottish (Golden) eagle after them now! Congrats mate!
Well done laddie! You could feel the fatigue and pressure watching the race but your perseverance was inspiring
Epic race! Great job!
Epic video of a legendary moment. Very inspiring, looking forward to your first win in a big one soon
congratulations for this superb race and all this sacrifices did to come at this level !
I've got my money on you for Gavere this year. A win is just around the corner!
Congrats and well deserved! Looking forward to the next video of you on the top step.
Congrats mate !!!!
I’m so happy for you.
Grande Cameron 👏
Good job Cameron 🤩
Way to go Cam! I was waiting for your post race post - super way to express yourself by showing everyone how you rode the race. Ride hard, ride fast, ride on...stay humble and the "w's" will follow. Cheers mate!
Awesome! Loved watching you make this incredible achievement. They were all waiting while Michael sped off in the distance and you just went for it without any support and just kept going. Epic!!!
Congratulations! I cheered for you, and I'm super happy about your 2nd place!!!!
Cameron, that was impressive, at least impressive, CX season is just starting, can't wait for the next races.
well done cameron.... onward and upward...very proud of you.....have watched you over the years and you have achieved so much, but we know there is more to come....fantastic !!!!
Very cool mate!! Well done Cameron!!
I'm so pleased for you and your team. You have made your fans and British cyclo cross so proud with your achievments , shared by your excellent videos since the channel hopping trips as a junior. Keep up the progress.
