I love Ben's style and commentary. Authentic, passionate and a guy who genuinely enjoys what he's doing. Congrats to 40th place. Wish you another clean run for the next race.
This may be one of my favourite MTB videos I've seen, awesome having the rider commenting on the race run and what they're thinking about etc while watching the POV cam, love it
Awesome to watch this the day after watching the race live on TV. The track looks so different when you're onboard. Really brings home how tough a world cup track is. Massive congrats to Ben. Great performance, especially given the crash in practice. Looking forward to the next one ;-)
Yes Ben! 40th is awesome, especially considering you’re pit crew is you and you say you’re not up to race fitness. What could you do if you did have pit crew and were fit as you needed to be? Great video. Love you talking us through it.
After listening to this and having followed Cathro for years now and being aware of how gid he is on a bike, I'm gobsmacked by how tough mentally these tracks are to ride at this level and how tough mentally these riders are. It's one thing to ride first if everything goes perfect, but if you're offline or make a mistake, you have to be able to mentally recover and still manage yourself down the rest of the track. Super impressed Cathro - well earned finish!
I remember watching Ben from a gondola last year at fort William absolutely flying and couldn't believe how fast he was going ! placed 40th really well done but just shows how fast the top dawgs are
Absolutely fking stoked to see you back racing bro!! Well done! Total respect for getting back up after that crash and going again and for also being honest in the video and explaining it all and stuff. Inspirational as always man. Il hopefully use some of that inspiration at glenlivit this weekend 😬 good luck and keep on it! Respect from the homeland 🏴🤘
Congrats, Ben! What an accomplishment! I had a very similar crash at Snowshoe this summer on Pro DH...hits to the noggin suck. Good job dusting off and getting back in the saddle.
That was great, I'm stoked for you Ben getting the chance to race, this is such an insight into the bizarre world of professional dh riding, I mean could any of us viewers imagine doing it as a fulltime job? One minute your as high as a kite and the next minute you're crashed in a heap wondering have you got any fractures. Great entertainment.
Awesome job dude, couldn't have worked out better to get to race right at the end of the season (though it does look like a savage track). Wish I was on the east coast to cheer you on!
Wow that is amazing! Qualified! Love all your content on each race, makes race day way more fun to watch. Keep if the good work, and work on your fitness😋
Ben's idea of "crusing" down the track is a speed that I can only achieve in my imagination.
Good for you, my imagination is not that fast. :)
I thought the exact same thing... Ben that is not cruising
@@lux-3001 Haha. Comment gold!
i completly agree with all of you, know imagine how fucking fast the top guys are !!!!!!
Honestly, what a nice chap. No matter what place you come Ben, enjoy every moment and you'll have won regardless.
I love Ben's style and commentary. Authentic, passionate and a guy who genuinely enjoys what he's doing. Congrats to 40th place. Wish you another clean run for the next race.
Great video and of course great job!
This may be one of my favourite MTB videos I've seen, awesome having the rider commenting on the race run and what they're thinking about etc while watching the POV cam, love it
Ben is my favorite personality in the mountain bike world. Way to go!
SO great to see Cathro racing again!
im not crying, you're crying...so awesome to see after following your privateer series and big accident. Congrats on your perseverance
Wow, 40th among the best riders in the world. Well done, Ben! Congrats!
Omg is that the line guy????!!!!!!!
Ben has been the greatest addition to the world cup races over the past few years by far and above
Ben and Henry really took PB up a notch. Dunno why, but they both get through to me. It’s insane you place top 40 in the WORLD
Awesome to watch this the day after watching the race live on TV. The track looks so different when you're onboard. Really brings home how tough a world cup track is. Massive congrats to Ben. Great performance, especially given the crash in practice. Looking forward to the next one ;-)
This is so great to see! Major props
I love Ben. Love the way he discusses riding and his experiences. Keep it up man :)
Yes Ben! 40th is awesome, especially considering you’re pit crew is you and you say you’re not up to race fitness. What could you do if you did have pit crew and were fit as you needed to be? Great video. Love you talking us through it.
That just shows the kind of speed guys in the world cup ride… crazy!! Congrats Ben, you deserve it!!
Nice Run Ben, last World Cup I raced was in 1999 at Squaw Valley. Love to watch all the current DH races, the courses and bikes have changed so much.
I could watch Ben Cathro do the dishes and still would be glued to the screen. What a great guy! Congrats on place 40!
Was so pumped to see the title of this video. Congrats Ben!
Ben is the highlight of pinkbike content and DH racing right now. Loving it.
Much props. Clean Run is all I ever want.
Well done Ben , that’s a great insight for everyone . Good luck for the rest of the week !
What a nice guy. Hope to see him in more races and videos.
Just rad. The honest race commentary is as good as it gets
