Cow Pie Classic 2024
Started the day feeling really off, but once the race got going I started to feel a lot better. I rode with the same group of people up until the farm where I got dropped. I was not expecting the grassy bit leaving the farm to be SO BUMPY! I rode the entire width of that section trying to find a smoother line, but it was all equally rough. After the farm I put in some extra work to catch back up the group I was with earlier and eventually caught up to the girl in the zebra kit and we ended up riding together until the finish line. Great day and the weather was prefect.

Realized i never uploaded last year's Melting Mann video....better late than never. It's just the first hour, as it was so rainy that I couldn't hook up an external battery to power the cameras for any longer. It was a cold and rainy ride! The parking lot was just a flooded mess of mud, but cool to be able to start/end at Swiss Valley this year. The squeaking you hear is from my boots (Lake Lak...

First time doing this race for me, it was pretty flat and wide open fields that lead to some headwinds. But it was a cool event.

Took an 8 hour drive up to Cable, WI to do a race with a friend. The gravel roads and scenery were great, especially the lakes. We stayed at a cool lodge where we were oddly the only ones in the whole place. However the event itself was very disorganized. We struggled trying to find the start line and then again the finish line. There wasn't really much of a start as half the racers went whenev...

It didn't rain during the race, but all day before it had, so there was tons of peanut butter like mud on the course. At one point I couldn't use my smallest gear because it was gummed up with mud causing the chain to skip on it. -I lost 5 mins of time because apparently it didn't matter if you started in wave 1 or wave 2, your clock stated at 9:15. Why even have 2 waves then?! Why not do a sin...

What a great race! Felt cold during the warm up, but once the race got going it was the perfect temperature. Tactically I think I did a pretty good, following wheels and closing down gaps and at the final five miles, a group formed...man was that fun! The four of us worked together, pulling and rotating off the front. Hart Hills was my first ever gravel race in 2021, making this my 3rd year com...

Rear camera dies on Gun Lake, and I accidentally turned off the front camera just before The Wall thinking it was dead as well...ooops. The weather could not have been better! Such as stark contrast to last years race. Lost concentration while turning onto Otis Lake (32:59) and made a terrible wide turn that resulted in me having to briefly stop and put a foot down. I managed to catch my back u...

2nd race of the year. Conditions were perfect, though I overdressed by wearing a jacket, I was constantly zipping and unzipping to find a balance between regulating my temperature and not being a parachute. I signed up this year for the Clydesdale division, but as a Clydesdale rider, hills are tough for me. And the Dirty 30 starts with a decent climb right from the start. I was tired at the top...

    • @axg1010
      @axg1010 10 месяцев назад

      MPH is the overall speed. RPM is the cadence (how fast my legs are spinning the cranks). W is Watts, how much power is being generated

    I’m right there with you on the inaccurate results and inaccurate time for the wave 2 racers. I would have been third in my age group had they deducted the five minutes I waited to start in wave two. I reached out and got nowhere. It affects me in the gravel race series too. Thanks for the video! I found me at about 18 minutes - we rode together quite a while. I’m in black with red sleeves.

      I remember trying to hang with you! I had also reached out to them and got nowhere, until this morning. I just got an email saying that they are going to update the times for wave 2 riders. I guess enough people must've complained.

    • @jonathanmyers5883
      @jonathanmyers5883 Год назад

      It's good they decided to correct the times to match how EVERY other race in the MGRS times their waves! What video setup do you use for your races? Your video seemed to survive mud coverage better than any other I've watched!

    • @axg1010
      @axg1010 Год назад

      Haha well my rear camera was pretty muddy by the end. I don't do anything special though to prevent the cameras from getting muddy. I have a couple of k-edge mounts, one attached to the saddle, and the other holds both my Garmin and GoPro out front. I occasionally wiped the front camera with my hand though.
