Finally some coverage.. it's sad, he should be getting featured in every cycling magazine and CZcams channel out there.. You guys are legends!!
I just watched this for the first time after following the Rhinorun. I now understand how he was able to pull through and overtake Benky when it looked certain he was going to be second. Such incredible strength in brain and body. Such an inspirational person with an awesome outlook on life.
Abdullah is absolutely an enigma. We are so enamoured with his story that we are making a feature documentary. Let's hope that if we can get this film made, Abdullah will finally get the recognition he deserves!
Best ever! What a trip of living the life!
And now he has just won ‘the rhino run’ 🎉
Abdulla is a legend, he should be 10 times as popular as he is
The lack of cycling media coverage is really disappointing for such a huge achievement. Having said that, GCN did mention it briefly in one of their vids.
This video is so rewarding from a long time viewer; to see Abdullah from years back and Rhino, both world ultra competitors, Thank you.
AMAZING. Abdullah should be giving talks at schools- primary & secondary.

The 2 missing men of you tube return!!!👍 Liquid man gone but not forgotten!!!
I have watched Abdullah since he appeared in the early cycling maven channel as he was starting crits, I have watch him making the decision to do the indipac and when I seen him do the trans am I was awwwwwwed by his performance, this guy does not get the credit he deserves, a REAL LEGEND in my book and a natural talent for ultra endurance.
Abdullah if you have a go fund me page for your events post it here, i'll put a few bucks your way, the sport needs more people like you.
I think your the best ultra cyclist in the world, given the funds I know you would break records all over the world.
"Its not about what your ftp is or if you can ride in a bunch. It's about being tough. That's a human thing." Excellent quote from AZ @ 16:20
Abdullah i've been following you for a couple of years now, you always have such an out of the box positive message and I THANKYOU!!! its so inspiring!!!
What a great insight into the mind of a true legend, superb peace of work Maven.
This was such a great conversation, thanks!
What a great interview. Very enjoyable listening to Abdullah’s unique take on life, the universe and everything. For anyone looking at the length of this podcast and thinking “that”s too long, I can’t do that”, just watch it in sections. Take an intermission break, get some popcorn. It’s worth it.
Thanks, Mark, and congrats to Abdullah on his achievements.
I’ve been fighting a battle with rheumatoid arthritis over the past three years, and my training has gone from 350 km a week to 20. I still have my mental strength, but this interview was exactly what I needed and much appreciated. Abdullah, all the best with whatever is next! :)
overthetopblues I know you’re busy with family now Maven but see how inspirational you’re “other” work is?
Such a good interview! Would love to see Abdullah re-define TRC in the coming years as well 💪
Glad the Dot watching opinion was addressed, I popped out to see Rhino come through Ayrshire the other day and I was a bit nervous about how he'd respond. Turned out I was the first watcher and he was buzzing to stop for a chat! Great interview Mark!
Good job Mark,great stuff.Abdullah is a legend,so young,so strong in the head unreal.thanx
A ride like that changes a person. 👌🏼
Beers for Maven and Abdullah, great interview Mark, watching the the inaugural Indipac was my first dot watching experience and it got me hooked looking forward to my first biggie.
Brilliant. You two have such a chemistry, right from the early vlog days 🤙🏻
'Would rather see the bears than not see the bears'. So dam good.
“Once you put your shoes on, the world’s your oyster.” I love that. Haha.
I love Abdullah’s personality. So humble. What an athlete... and what a human...
Back with a bang - Abdullah total unit \m/
Great interview. Thank you Mark for your amazing work.
Plus thank you Abdullah!
Thanks Mark. What can't Abdullah achieve? He comes across so scattered at times but is infact so focused.
Will try and get a few snaps of the pilgrimage coming up the Coorong next year.
Abdullah is such a deep soul. I adore him!
Awesome podcast, Mark!. Really like the way it came out. You guys have a great chemistry together on camera and that makes a huge difference. It's already been said, but AZ is a monster athlete. It would be great to see him try the Trans Continental Race next year.
I agree, very disappointing that the mainstream cycling media isn't covering this. At the very least GCN should have, but then again they are only interested in making videos that promote their sponsors.
Without a doubt your best interview ever. Excellent subject and your inside knowledge made this a special event. Followed his dot on both events. A true legend. Love to see him and Kristof go head to head.
Fantastic interview!!! Loved every single thing! Very insightful and interesting. Epic work Abdullah 💪🏼
Brilliant video. So good to finally see some good coverage of his recent events.
abdullah - your a down to earth dude. your genuine and honest and you keep it real man. wish i would have chatted with you in astoria, maybe we'll cross paths again. thanks for giving it your all during transam. mark, your a badass too, dude. been lurking as a fan for awhile, hope to see more uploads soon.
Thanks so much Mark. Much respect to you for doing this.
Abdullah: you’re an awesome dude man. Inspiring. Hopefully you’ll get some more mainstream coverage soon. Crushing the TransContinental would do it for you.
Between 1.09.00 to 1.13.10 - "truly, truly wise words". Thanks Mark, thanks Abdullah.
Fantastic Vlog as usual Maven! thoroughly enjoyed listening to Abdullah's insights, think he would make a great motivational speaker / sports psychologist.
Great interview. Thanks to you two. 👍
Great stuff Mark.Touching on real life,what really matters,what life is really about.Deeply absorbing and relevant. Thank You.
Great interview Mark, thanks a lot.
Nice work Mark Ferguson. Abdullah and his achievements are exceptional and his story needs to be shared. Congratulations to both of you.
Thank you so much Mark for this interview with Abdullah. He really is inspirational for people to listen to.You got me seriously thinking contemplating your little 1000km trip. would love some details like costs etc
Out of all the cycling podcasts I’ve listened to about endurance sports or sports in general this would have to be THE most insightful and inspiring interview I’ve ever listened to! He always have such a unique way of explaining life experiences and to adapt to problems both mentally and physically.
I wonder if Durianrider will be up to challenge him again 😂😂
Thank you so for sharing his story. Abdullah has been talking about his mindset philosophy for years, but to see him put it into practice and break world records in the process is incredible!
Great interview. What a refreshing outlook. Thanks Mark.
Brilliant insights into stretching our potential, and the attitudes of a remarkable person. Great interview Mark. Congratulations and thanks Abdullah.
Amazing video Mark, love it. Abdullah is an athlete..❤️
What?!? Can’t believe this is the first I hear of this. Awesome news big thumbs up for the win and big thanks to Maven for the coverage. Two legends, should be able to click ‘like’ a hundred times
This is one of the best videos I've seen in years. Legend
Abdullah is incredibly, talented, powerful. Small or large hope everyone got something out of this to inspire them 🙏🏻 as a working single independent mum of 2 beautiful children it took me several years to feel OK. BUT OK IS GREAT
Excellent insight ! and good to see him in such a good space so soon after the finish.
Legit effort, really incredible. Congrats Abdullah!
I have been wanting to hear about this ride since he finished. Chapeau Abdullah and thanks for giving us the insight of what it actually takes to get this kind of undertaking done.
Yessssssss! You’re back fergel.
Great work guys,awesome chat...Abdulla you are a legend.
Great content Mark. Much Respect to Abdullah.
And he's vegan too. What a guy
Thanks guys, relatively new subscriber to your channel Mark and found it from the Glucose Network.
Enjoyed the conversation and congratulations.
Excellent!! Loved it. Great insight and perspective.
Good to see you both... loved it. Love ya both.. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
That egg was well worth cracking, thanks Mark and Abdullah. You have both once again opened up my eyes to a new level of gratitude to what cycling and pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone does. Cheers :)
Absolutely loved this. Thanks.
Nicely done Mark, thanks for getting the story out there.
Great coverage, thank you. Someone sponsor this man so he can achieve more things and we can ride along
Great interview. Thank you!
Excellent interview! Watching this has been a great way for me to relive my 2018 TransAm. It would be awesome to sit down and chat with both of you someday.
Inspirational. Thks Mark and Abdullah!
Excellent interview. Thanks.
Brilliant and thanks. Forget the building site....this guy needs to start spreading the word that there are no limits! Inspiring.
So amazing to see him smashing these things
Top interview. Thanks!
Wow ! Mark brilliant interview. Well done Abdullah. What an achievement and really nice you gave recognition to Mike Hall. Aged 68 I have always thought it was a great excuse not to enter it but it turns out others my age and older enter so I will have to think of another excuse now. These events need to have a higher public profile and more recognition for the competitors.
This was so good every second of it insightful
This is why we need Maven's chanel. Great job Mark.
Lovely darts Mark. At last some recognition for Abdullah. For all us dot watchers!
Love you, love Abdullah, but in a manly kind of way ;-) And loved the interview. Thanks Mark
Awesome interview thank you, would be great to hear more of an intro / history of the races you're talking about
Great vid and podcast. Good move mark. Will have that coffee sent to you soon from The Sports Barista. 😀
I haven't watched this yet but thanks for this video! Wondering what Abdullah has been up to for ages!!
Thanks for this interview
An amazing lad. Great podcast
Great inspiration. Thanks for sharing the story.
Be good to see Abdullah and Kristoff race James Heydon. These guys are currently the big 3 in Ultras at the pointy end. Great interview, Abdullah is a deadset legend. ✌️🌱💚
Agreed, James seems like an absolute machine
Loved this 🤙🏾
Abdullah is like the Jordan Peterson of cycling. Loved the section around 1:10 on training consistently and 'unlocking levels' through training.
Accompanied Abdullah for the last 50kms on his approach to the opera house last year together with many other riders for the end of the Indy pac. Top bloke & very friendly. Definitely needs more recognition for doing what he does. The Trans Am performance was epic
Amazing insights from an incredible athlete.
Perfect inspiration for paris brest paris (no where near as epic) next month. Amazing content.
Great interview, great sportsman.
I was so thirsty for this... Great job
Great interview
Amazing interview 👍👍👍
Abdullah you are a true inspiration
Great work Abdullah.
Mark, come back we miss you. Congratulations mate on an epic performance. Now let's get him some sponsorship so can can continue to compete at a high level.
Nothing but love for Abdullah
the glucose network is an interesting cat. i like where the chat was going, Abdullah could inspire a lot of people...get him in some schools to talk perspective and struggle. well done mate, where's my t-shirt though? :)
