I cycle solo 99% of the time. Weather permitting I start my rides at 1:00 AM and end about 4:00 am on rural (Texas) roads to avoid the traffic. I've found my average speed increase is directly related to the number of crazy dogs I encounter. Very informative video.
Awesome tips Luis, i’ve gotten so much better as a cyclist doing shorter 1 1/2 to 2 hour rides more often throw in a little weight training on my off days get good sleep and eat a clean diet, for me at 60 I’m at my all-time best right now, love your channel and stay safe out there!
Luis, I need to buy a house in your area. I can not find roads with no cars in my area including my own neighborhood. I have to plan around rush hour and a number of other things to avoid becoming a target of road rage.
@68 I’m doing my 3x 5 miles run a week, 31 miles bike ride and 2x4 miles of walk. A day of break gives me a real good energy again . Biking is still my favorite of all my exercises, I can pedal and cruise and at the same time enjoying the scenery. 😊😊😊😅 Great tips as always👍
I ride my bike everyday. 10 miles to work 10 miles back. Ride to the park, to the gym. Solo. I've yet to ride in a group. I enjoy giving the bus a two mile head start and running it down. Soon I will put a cpu on my bike, get a sleek jersey, get some cycle shoes, get a carbon frame, experience shimano di2 for the first time. But for now I'm still learning. Still growing. I just love riding! At my fitness level, my engine, and how I approach cycling. I'm actually afraid of what I might do with a high end bike. I might just set a course to GA and ✌🏾🚴🏿♂️ really love your content. Thanks for your knowledge and insight.
Last week I purchased an late 80s olmo steel road bike with down tube shifters, the type of bike I haven’t ridden for over 20 years and it surprised me!!! I found it a solid ride freewheeling down hill and smoother peddling with 170mm cranks instead of the 172.5 I have on my carbon bianchi, I also found it extremely comfortable and it carries speed better than the carbon bike for me as a 160lb rider and it makes me work harder because of the gearing!! 53/39 and 23 at the back which brings me to my point, I did my usual 50 mile loop with 3 thousand ft of climbing the fastest so far this year!!!!! which left me scratching my head 🤣 🇬🇧
Ha, I have a similar experience riding my ‘85 CIOCC. In my case I attribute it to the gearing on the CIOCC, 42/53 & 13/21 (6 sp). In order to maintain my cadence I have to work harder & on most hills, I’m out of the saddle 😀. The expanded gearing on my Wilier makes it easier to be complacent. Even though it is lighter it is set up with a 34/50 & 12/27, which make sitting and spinning easy unless I’m focused on improving. BTW, great video!
@@shoff535 one of my local climbs is 3.5 mile long and average 6%, I put it the lowest gear at the bottom and thought well that’s it🤣 I was out of the saddle on the first hair pin but I found the bike climbs better out of the saddle than my carbon bike, did that climb and matched my fastest time of the year on a bike that is 2 kilos heavier 🤣
@@julianmorris9951 nice!, 6% for 3.5 miles that’s brutal!! I have a similar weight difference on the two mentioned, 9.4kg vs 6.6kg. The actual weight of the bike while climbing imo is less important, the weight of the wheels is the key. For decades I rode with early 90s Campagnolo Vento wheels which weighed in (w tires/tubes/cassette & QR) at 7.3 # (3.3kg), a true pain while climbing but very steady on high speed decents), I finally swapped them out for “turn of the century” Campagnolo Electrons which are 6#s (2.7 kg) & that change alone was made my climbing times much better. Lots of the new carbon wheels are even lighter, my Bora 35s are 5.3#s (2.4 kg). FWIW, all wheel weights are “ready to ride” with the same tire tube setup (700c x 23), only cassette(s) are different. I don’t have weights on the CIOCC wheels, they are just standard 80s Ambrosio 36 spoked clinchers.
@@shoff535 I’m in the South Wales valleys in the uk where you’re either going up or down 😅 the has mavic MA wheels at the moment but I’ve just ordered a pair of vittoria corsa tyres with latex inner tubes to see how they go👍
Thank you for the recap at the end. I appreciate your nonjudgmental and easy going nature. You reminded us to just get out and ride🚴🏾🚴🏾🚴🏾🚴🏾 Ultimately this is what will help us ENJOY the sport!!!
I just moved to the other side of the country called San Luis Obispo, and they have the most painful hills you can imagine. Some of steep ones rise for half a mile or so and are so, so painful. I just slow down when I can't take it, but would definately love see a video on that if your part of town has hills.
I'm outside doing lots of Z2/Z3 rides primarily and since I stopped the structured intervals I was doing on SYSTM at the start of April I'm actually fairly certain my fitness (FTP) has declined a bit.... I did an indoor workout yesterday and it was quite a relief to be able to just look at the screen, concentrate on some numbers, my cadence, HR and breathing without the cars, potholes, bad weather to contend with because outside I don't want to be looking at my Garmin for safety reasons.... decided I need to do 1 minimum, maybe 2 occasionally, weekly interval sessions on the indoor bike and pick the days when outside riding wouldn't be viable anyway(like tomorrow, rain and winds gusting to 45mph). It's made me realise just how valuable the Kickr setup is all year round...(only had it since November, sanity saver over the long dark winter and otherwise I'd have been watching TV getting fatter)....
More quality content; I personally have found that diversifying training helped me a lot. So getting on the treadmill once a week and doing fast short intervals of running just hit my cardio from another direction and gave me more gas in the tank
It took me far longer than I want to admit to learn most of the stuff you went over in this video. I do bike handling drills in big, empty lots now and then. Ride as slow as possible down a long painted line, slow tight figure 8's, picking up a water bottle off the ground as I ride by, fast tight corners around islands...That sort of stuff. Knowing your strengths/weaknesses, and using power data to figure them out, will also open your eyes. For years I thought I was a climber because I was able to drop most of my riding friends on group rides on climbs. Once I nerded out on power data, I realized I have very good 5 minute power and I live on a sandbar with "climbs" that aren't really climbs in the scheme of things. I'm not a bad climber, just nowhere near as good as I originally thought! 🤣 We can talk about my awful sprinting on another video.
Thank you for sharing your experiences Christopher. Those skills training are so important. It is also very rare that someone would practice them... and I like that you combine some new tech with those methods. Keep up the good work👍🏾
i get this question, a lot. i tell people get out on more rides. just doing the weekends "weekend warriors" is not enough. On group rides to counter being sucked in the vacumm of drafting i try to pull one lane but also asking the group if that is ok since others may want to take a turn at pulliing. And.. most of the time they welcome it.
Great tips! I have to say that I feel some envy for you guys riding on those flat Florida roads with nice smooth pavement. Where I ride, roads like that are non-existent and there's the rough and hilly terrain at the base of a volcano...Intervals for me mean dealing with those hills. Increasing one's average speed here is a tough process...You might be able to go up the hills a bit faster but with the roads being so crappy, you never get to go much faster on the downhills.
love this. def agree with eating right. when im undercarbed i just bonk too quickly. the feeling of being fueled is a night/day difference. also def agree with people not knowing how to gear properly. in NYC i see dudes climbing up bridges doing like 40rpm and im like brooo wht r u doing lmfao. i used to obsess over speed when i first started cycling but now i kinda dont care anymore. so long as my resting HR stays low, i know i'm pretty fit. thanks for the video!
Luis, I came across your channel a few days back. Looking forward to future content, watching the channel grow, and more helpful videos such as this. Take care!
I'd like to think I knew all this stuff, but the way you spelt it out and talking about pedal efficiency, really makes sense. Tomorrow's ride will be longer slower and constant pressure 🙂

Pretty much all my rides are solo so I can be in control of what I want to accomplish on my rides. It makes me stronger and more comfortable when I finally jump on a group ride. The best advice was definetly "just ride your bike more".. Great information Luis.. Thank you boss.
