My dear Olivier, from one who loves bibicles and riding...I tip my hat to you, sir. What a battle! And what a set of lungs and cicling legs you have! Phenomenal! you are one hell of a rider. I hope you continue giving them all hell!! Bonne chance and good ridings. I'll be cheering for you and watching your "Go Pro" from Portugal.
You may not be the fastest at the sprint or the flats but your power (especially on the uphill), technical handling, and endurance is phenomenal. Congrats
Bro you’re a psychopath that was hyper-extreme!!!!!!! I’m over here freaking out the entire time hahahhahahaha great work man this is crazy exhilarating!!! My heart is going crazy and I’m just sitting here hahahahha that dog almost got you bro!
Wow, outstanding and thrilling. I'm on the edge of my seat the whole race. Thanks for posting and I hope you did not go for a swim with the sharks !!! Tres dangereux :)
@@olivierbruwiere 45:20 that older mister in pistachio shirt, his smile.... "good job young man but still second, i was here five minutes before you, still second, better luck next year young one" XD
En roulage en descente, les autres plus lourds vous distance, en revanche en force pure, sur des montées ou plat vous les rattrapez. Bravo à vous, un vrai champion!
Félicitation à toi! Çà fait plaisir de voir un Belge gagner la Mégavalanche! Par contre les coupes de Vidal... dans les champs de cannes c'est abusé...
Vanuit Nederland ook een diepe buiging. Schitterend gereden weer en wat een strijd. Vidal was wel beter op het laatste stuk maar nam net teveel risico vermoed ik. Die actie van hem op 35 minuten door dat veld was wel heel erg mooi! Ik moet eerlijk zijn dat toen ik zag dat hij steeds verder van je weg reed een mechanisch probleem vermoedde. Maar toch gevallen en je moet wel bljven staan. Je kon ook daarvoor al zien dat hij begin te pushen en pushen berg op, volgens mij zat je op je tandvlees. Maar goed doorgestreden!! Dit lijkt me ook echt wel iets voor Mathieu van der Poel en Tom Pidcock. Zeker Mathieu vind dit echt wel geweldig. Als Absalon het kon...
Thx! Klopt. Fysiek was het een echte battle. Ik reed met zwaardere en zachtere banden tov Vidal. Dus op de trapstukken kon ik maar net aanpikken. Op de gladde trails kon ik dan weer vlot volgen. De laatste stukken liggen er ontzettend ruw bij voor je materiaal. Iets te snel en je hebt zowiso stukken.
That was an incredible race, I loved every second of it. Congratulations,but I wonder what happened at 17:37. Did you want to go left,because you forgot which way to go? Did you want to push the other racer out of the way or did the other guy push you out? Nonetheless I hope we are gonna have a video from this years edition as well. 🤘🤘
Dat binnendoor rijden was natuurlijk wel even een schitterende actie en ik was echt verbaasd dat hij Olivier daarna gewoon voorbleef. Ik dacht dat hij eigenlijk verder achter lag dus toen ie ineens van rechts hoppakee er zo weer voor kwam....Ik was echt verbaasd. Reed hij nu lek of is hij gevallen? Ik dacht gevallen maar kon 't niet goed zien. Fantastisch genoten weer. Ik hou van cyclocross maar met Mathieu zo goed is het saai (ik ben wel Nederlander, maar ben in principe fan van de beste in koers niet per se een landgenoot dus). Wout is minder nu. Dus kijken mijn vrouw en ik gewoon naar dit soort races en we vinden het echt van begin tot einde een genot! Mag dit niet Olympisch worden? Heeft Belgie meteen weer een topfavoriet!
That was intense. Some of those low overhangs and narrow gaps were like threading a needle at those speeds. Where is this? Looks like the tropics somewhere.
That guy in front made such a classic cycling mistake of trying to stay ahead at all cost and tiring himself out... Good job sticking to a better strategy!
Thx! Top 5 of Megavalanche Alpe D’huez, Antoine Vidal (French DH champion), Dylan Levesque, Nico Quere, Florent Payet,… also some fast guys. Maybe faster then some of the more famous names.
honestly congrats, but i feel sorry for the other guy who was your pathfinder a long long time through the forest etc. and made it easier for you. but for his fall he would have won. but that is hte name of the game. good run.
ferme rit Bosse !! Proficiat ! Het heeft wel lang geduurd he vooraleer je die laatste leider voorbij ging .... de aanhouder wint, druk blijven zetten !!
@@olivierbruwiere thanks for the answer. On camera, it looked too smooth for a hit, but also too close. Though you were just heavier and send the guy flying 😅.
@@olivierbruwiere you should be able to use garmin Virb edit with your garmin watch to create a HUD with everything else minus the power. That would be sick!
@@olivierbruwiere meme en 4k c'est un peu pourri malheureusement ; vérifie ton encodage peut etre avant d upload sur yt .. desfois yt fait de la merde selon le codec :) Belle descente btw
What a cheap shot Vidal did at @ 17:38. Totally unsportsmanlike. And at 35:30 - although the course isn't marked off, that was a cheat route. Karma caught up .
@ 17.38 it was my mistake. I tought the track was on the left side and Antoine wanted to go on the right side. The tape wasn’t there during the practice.
Merci! 17 psi front, 19 psi rear. The Michelins are strong tyres, so they don’t need much air and I love riding low pressures . I can block the rear suspension with the remote on my handlebar. 💪🔥
@@olivierbruwiere Wow, ça fait pas beaucoup, avec 170 de débattement avant arrière, faut le pousser le ransom, c'est une double performance ! Uniquement la suspension arrière, certainement à cause d'un changement de fourche.
Cheated? Awesome move! Such people make what already is a breathtaking sport to another level. Did you expect him to ever come back? I didn't and boom...there he was. Hats of to him, took too much risk and Olivier is the deserved winner.
Algorithm comment. This will end up high with the other ones aswell. Already got it recommended. Wish it the same publicity as the other ones. Btw: that traffic and people on track got me annoyed af
funny to see you were just folowing and waiting and when he missed those 2 corners you realized he got tired.......race won. he dint even realize you used him to navigate 8) he responded to you by taking bigger risks because he realized he could not beat your indurance...to bad he dit it to late when he was alr tired and shit happened.next time he wil take then sooner and that wil make him win races
@@JuneMacs-oj3dlit wasn’t lucky the other guy crashed, the other guy couldn’t shake him so took one to many risks. You could say that about any sport what if…… It’s the person who crosses the line first is the winner. It’s was a well won race, Olivier controlled the bike better, didn’t take sneaky shortcuts and was first over the finishing line, to suggest otherwise is really disrespectful
@@stevee8920 He did shake him. I counted the seconds and the gap was widening. From 1-2 s it became 6 s. But one thing: he only managed to do so because he took too much risks and so that is part of the game too. There is one winner and he won deservedly.
'This' is the BEST cross country : rough terrain race I've seen !
Thx mate! Real Cross country 😅

I wonder if that runner got any kicks up the backside.
Awsome ride..pay back for the short cut ..come off lol
Thx!
Congratulations to Messier Bruwiere for the win, awesome run...
but how is it none of the top dogs were at La Reunion this year?
Thx!
Top 5 of Megavalanche Alpe D’huez, Antoine Vidal (French DH champion), Dylan Levesque, Nico Quere, Florent Payet,… also some fast guys. Maybe faster then some of the more famous names.
@@olivierbruwiere For sure they are very fast but I'm talking about the Megavalanche specialists : Oton , Bron, Peter, Pigeon, etc.
Stefan Peter was there. He ended 13th in qualification and did not raced on sunday.
damn man, spannend! machtig gedoan alleszins. Proficiat!
Thx Kris!
in the first place sportsmens then rivals, crazy race I wouldn't drive it even if I had the latest protection system f 1😁😁😁
Thx man! The track is really cool to ride. Not to steep, but lots of roots and rocks.
@@olivierbruwiere your rivals are stefan and killian they are also great👍👍
cool dude! physics and schools at a high level!
what was your opponent's name?
Antoine Vidal was 2nd place 🔥
honestly congrats, but i feel sorry for the other guy who was your pathfinder a long long time through the forest etc. and made it easier for you. but for his fall he would have won. but that is hte name of the game. good run.
Thx!
Good for you, dude....
Thx!
ferme rit Bosse !! Proficiat ! Het heeft wel lang geduurd he vooraleer je die laatste leider voorbij ging .... de aanhouder wint, druk blijven zetten !!
Bedankt! Hij was sneller op het einde, maar stukken gereden.
1:06 what was that? Did you just tackle him away?
It was close, but we did not hit. I needed to be in the front before the singletrack. 💪
the video of the guy he passed in on YT too. And it was close but it was ok :)
@@olivierbruwiere thanks for the answer. On camera, it looked too smooth for a hit, but also too close. Though you were just heavier and send the guy flying 😅.

Can you please add heads up display with speed, power, gradient, heart rate etc. That would be so cool to see!
Hi,
I did not record this on the gopro. I don’t use a powermeter,…
I only have the info from my Garmin watch.
@@olivierbruwiere you should be able to use garmin Virb edit with your garmin watch to create a HUD with everything else minus the power. That would be sick!
What country is this
It’s on the Island La Réunion. It’s part of France, but located next to Madagascar.
Uhh didn't that mountain used to have snow on it
The one in Alpe d’Huez had snow. This is the Megavalanche @ Reunion. The 2nd race of the year on the old vulcano. No snow there.
Très belle course, félicitations !! Juste dommage que ce soit filmé par une Cam Eco+
Shot with the GoPro 11. You can watch it in 4K.
@@olivierbruwiere meme en 4k c'est un peu pourri malheureusement ; vérifie ton encodage peut etre avant d upload sur yt .. desfois yt fait de la merde selon le codec :) Belle descente btw
I have been watching several of these in the last week. It would be nice if you would put the country, as well as the mountain, or town nearby.
This one is @ Reunion Island. It’s in the title of the Video.
We start at the top of Maïdo.
I kinda miss the snow at the start
Come back for a new video in june and july 2023 if you want some snow 🥰
Bravo mec
Merci!
damn ^_^ who's that guy 23:40
Just me and Antoine Vidal?
綺麗に木を避けててすごいと思った
Thx! 🔥🔥
What kind of race is this? Enduro or XC racing
Marathon downhill racing
Negara mana ini
La Réunion.
Knap gedaan Bosse! Moet ik eerst naar Reunion of Madeira?
Voor den tropische vakantie eerst Reunion. Voor veel trails en lange dagen naar Madeira. 👍👍
Didn't the other guy make some invalid moves during that race?
There was no tape. But it’s always good to stay on the track.
Il est arrivé quoi au mec devant toi ???
A problem with his rear axl.
he got bad karma for cheating😆
How do these guys freakin know where to go?? 🤔
We can ride the track before the race.
The view in this race was sublime and the race wasn’t that bad either…
Thx man!
why would it be bad?
Sick.. where was this?
La Réunion. An Island next to Madagascar. The Indian Ocean.
Duh, read the title and the description.
I was so happy when I saw him in 41:20 in floor😂 . He seems bad person,, cheated and tried to you out.

Sorry for that. Looks oké on my screen. If you have any tips for uploading, let me know. I did some research for the best uploadquality.
Agree 🙂
Well they do say cheaters never prosper by taking a huge short cut across the grass only for his chain to come off
I don’t think the shortcut made a lot of difference, but it’s always a better idea to stay on the track.
I hope no one ran over that dog.
I hope that dog didn’t bite someone’s leg off 😃😅
my breathing was synchroniezed at 9-40
😅
Just wanted you to beat the guy in white missed the marker and went in front of you and then cut the corner and then holds you up
He was faster then me on the final part.
Hello brother please give Comentray with race like kilian boron.
I will think about it. But it’s not my thing.
