I raced Red Bull Romaniacs 2026 in the Adventure Core class on my CFMOTO 450MT — and finished 12th overall.

This is the full story: four days of incredible riding, a lost phone, suspension problems, two broken gear-shift assemblies, a completely flat rear tyre, brutal descents, exhaustion and finally reaching the finish.

A huge thank you to Lingvalls Motor for supporting this Romaniacs project and helping make the trip possible. If you're in Sweden and thinking about getting your own CFMOTO 450MT, Lingvalls Motor is a great place to start.

And thank you to everyone who's followed the journey, watched the videos, left comments, bought me a coffee or used one of my affiliate links.

More Romaniacs videos are coming, including a Q&A and a First-Timer Guide.
