When Josh Ibbett and Becky Surridge returned from this year's Atlas Mountain Race, they were both drained of energy but bursting with love for the experience they'd just endured. 

We immediately shared some initial thoughts and photographs as these two MASON-supported riders returned to the UK to refuel and relax.

But now, as the Moroccan dust has settled and Becky and Josh have moved on to their next adventures, both have published videos telling the story of their Atlas Mountain Race.

Both riders tackled the same gruelling route, but from different perspectives: Josh riding as an experienced ultra racer in contention for a strong placing – and Becky in only her second ultra race, drinking in the experience and reflecting on the culture of Morocco and the huge personal challenges she sets herself. 

Both videos are a joy to watch, and both racers are a credit to MASON, putting their Macro hardtails through the exact kind of challenge Dom designed them for.

So put the kettle on and settle in for a double bill of adventure: Josh's tale of a battle with the front-runners (and his own pace from last year), and Becky's story of immersing herself in a new, tough environment and how she approached it.

You can easily follow Josh and Becky to learn more about their adventures.

Josh Ibbett has already published great videos about his bike set-up and equipment selection for the Atlas Mountain Race. And Josh's Instagram account is worth a follow.

Becky Surridge's YouTube account is full of her journeys and challenges – some on the bike and some off, as she pushes herself to explore. Becky's Instagram is also bursting with adventure.
