Great video and without doubt the most dangerous race I have taken part in, one of the Danish cyclists in my category was in a coma for 5 days and over 150 cyclists ended up in hospital. The UCI and organisers should be ashamed having such an important race on narrow roads with over 2000 cyclists. Hope all the cyclists who needed treatment are back on their bikes.
@ an Aussie in my hotel lasted 5km before he crashed got picked up by a guy in a van taken to hospital and was told he needed 150 kroner, he had to walk 2 km to the bank in his torn cycling kit with broken collar bone got back to hospital and had to wait 3 hours as casualties were everywhere. Not good
@ you were in the best group as first off it was carnage behind due to the large numbers of cyclists in narrow roads and with about 35km to the finish you had all categories coming together. The big problem was narrow roads with too many cyclists and a lack of medical support due to the above.
@@TheMurciaCyclist-bk7jo Small roads aren't the problem, they actually help narrow the bunch down. Wider roads make bigger groups and higher speeds, so the consequences of these crashes are even gonna be worse. Crashes are always gonna be implicit, because the average amateur level rises A LOT quicker than the skill level of the average amateur (I even dare to say it gets worse). They should just make the age groups smaller (lower % qualifies) and leave bigger gaps between the races. And host an event over 2 days, just like they do with gravel worlds.
I was in M 19-34 and it was a carnage. It felt more like Normandy invasion than a proper race. Extremely dangerous, but I made it without a scratch. I saw 8 brutal crashes with my own eyes and one guy crashed in a traffic sign in the last couple of km. The first 20 and last 20 km were more about surviving than racing. Great video, Jasper!
That was a crazy race!!! You're in the most competitive age group! Awesome result. Well done to you and everyone else who raced and took part in the World's. It was brilliant to watch. Great film as always Jasper! 👍🏻
Great video as always Jasper, savage the way the organisers run these races, they didn’t think all this through did they, glad you finished unscathed 👍🏼
Wow dude, I havent seen your videos in a long time, in over 5 years. Now you have 3 kids. Your channel has come a long way! I rememebr your videos pushed me through during my training to crit racing. Thanks brotha.
Ha ha, brilliant Jasper, for once, you didn't get sick a few days b4 the start😊. I love these voice over presentations, but I guess they take a lot more editing. The camera seems great. Congrats on the new baby. Chaos...
It's been a while since I've seen one of your videos. Glad to see you're back in shape doing these crazy Euro races. This is one of your best videos I've seen. Hope your day job is going well now that travel has picked back up.
Jasper without doubt you make the best race videos. Unfortunately I missed Aalborg after a training accident but thank you for letting me experience what it would have been like…and it definitely would not have suited me. You should come to Australia for 2026 event, it would suit you for sure
I did the qualifier in Svendborg, pure chaos there as well. When you’re in a 80+ peleton and you are overtaking big peletons of other categories it’s impossible to know where you’re at. It was spitting rain that day, everyone riding with jackets, covering up the bib numbers.. not to mention the road furniture.. seriously was expecting more from an UCI GF race.
Great video! Really happy that: 1. You're using a bike from a factory that's just a few minutes away from my house: POLYGON BIKE. 2. You have 3 kids. Congrats. Hope you get a podium position next time 🔥
Great commentary and amazing video. I was there and somehow lucky to escape the carnage in my age group, but with over 3000+ cyclists, something was bound to happen. Congrats on the new addition to the family and for staying rubber side down during the race!
Tbh, I’ve been in much more dangerous races. The national elite competition in the Netherlands is crazy. Guys taking sky high risks to get seen by bigger clubs and make it in the world of cycling. I was in the middle of that. (My race videos in 2018) Compared to that, this is a bunch of sensible old guys with jobs and kids who want to come home alive. But yeah, the situation of the day was tricky
This is the best ride video I’ve ever seen. The camera perspective puts you right in the action!!! I wish they would televise all the major races just like this, I might actually watch. Otherwise stuff like even the Tour de France is boring the way they record it and I just watch picked clips of the real action only. Can you imagine seeing the race from the dude in the middle of the sprints during the major races? It would be amazing Anyway I don’t know who you are, but thanks for the amazing video
Mooie video Jasper , tof om de koers nog eens terug te zien , al hadden we er wel meer van verwacht . Altijd speciaal die granfondo's en Gravels , complete chaos uiteindelijk . Bedankt voor de vermelding "BroersPorco" en tot volgend seizoen .
Absolutely amazing video Jasper, I loved it. You were in crazy good shape that day ! For the ''story'', I actually raced a few times with the guy who won. While he is a nice guy... he was suspended for a few years for doping from pro cycling. And instead of racing with the highest amateur level (maybe he's banned though?), he goes in smaller amateur leagues and wins ALL the races. Super annoying for the rest of us ... Oh, and the guy who finished fourth was Belgian Amateur champion (top category for non pros) in 2023, it says a lot about the level of the race ! Anyway, I am really glad I did not compete : as others, I have heard that there was sooooo MANY crashes in that race, and the category mess shows so much how UCI think sooooooo lowly of Gran Fondo riders, all they care about is the money. Totally shameful to have races were the faster categories end up lapping the slower categories.Total madness. But welll .....
It's time the UCI understands that the main reason people aren't racing is because of the accidents. They just need to make it as safe as possible and way more people would participate.
@@alexandermascini9500 i think the whole problem is that TOO MANY people where in this race..... if you ask me, they should narrow down the selection by A LOT! ... Its the world championships, not a group ride. take out anyone without a race license, and make the qualification like top 5% or 10% of the qualification races. ....
AMAZING VIDEO and great race Jasper, man oh man I was nervous just sitting here watching on full screen, WOW! ps Your GF/kids all look great and happy! pps See you in April!
Jasper, bedankt voor deze leuke video terug! Mijn hartslag ging sneller slaan naarmate we dichter bij de finish kwamen en dat zegt veel over de kwaliteit van de video’s en je narratief verhaal. Nieuw camerastandpunt is een meerwaarde en heel goeie beeldkwaliteit. Kon jij maar wekelijks zulke video’s publiceren maar zo gemakkelijk is het niet natuurlijk 😂
Huge inspiration. Im only 21y old now. But in scared to get older and turn 30! However you show me that age is just a number and competition is still as fierce and strong at that age 😂 loved it!
Chapeau Jasper What an absolute disgrace of a race ,UCI should be sued by anyone who got wiped out . i have never ever seen anything like it absolulety nuts /carnage Incredible Camera footage
I rode Schleck several times and last year I rode Aachen. That one is even way more terrible. In the neutral periode the cars rode so hard that they caught up with the group that started ahead of us. So the neutralized part was the hardest part of all day and made the bunch twice as big totally mixed up.
Ik heb een tijdje geen video's meer gekeken, maar het RUclips algoritme gaf deze nu als aanbeveling :) Indrukwekkend om te zien wat voor progressie je hebt gemaakt door de jaren heen!
For what it's worth, I rode in the Gran Fondo World Championships last year in Scotland. There, they started the age groups the same way - with a few minutes gap - but the older age groups did a slightly different shorter course so the younger age groups never needed to overtake them. Also, it was on mostly country roads, so there were no problems with street furniture. There was still a lot of overtaking slower riders from the younger groups in front, but we never had big groups overtaking other big groups. It was much, much safer than Åalborg.
Guess better than this. However I think they should create levels instead of age groups or something…. It’s difficult and probably won’t change since it’s just the amateur categories..
Loving the content!! 👏👏👏👏 I just started watching!! My prediction on Chinese stuff it will end very soon!!! Mark my words I'm not a God for no reason 😐😑 360 looks great! Congratulations on the third kid! Just🎉 🎊 🥳
Haha. I think they will get bigger and bigger actually. Btw, polygon is Indonesian. Insta360 is Chinese. Just like DJI. Well established brands in the industry with high quality products. Bike infustry from China is catching up fast and will overtake soon imo
Awesome video! I wonder what you could have done if you got all the training in you wanted? It’s true you didn’t get on the podium but you were top 5 on that last sprint. And I’m really impressed by the camera views and battery life. Please do all your videos like this in the future!
Good question, I don’t know. I may have been able to keep a better position on some of the climbs to maintain a better overview of the riders and if I had the legs go with the guys that attacked. (I heard afterwards it was around 80km on the race and on that last climb..) Also I would have little more punch on the last 300m but positioning etc is more balls of steel and experience… I haven’t done much sprint finished lately…
@ thanks for responding so quickly. Another thing I’m like about your channel is how much you respond across multiple platforms. Thanks for that and hopefully one day I can join one of your camps in Mallorca or just do a long ride with you. If you’re ever in the USA please let us know so we can show support.
Great race footage Jasper! The last km's were exciting and nerve wrecking(I don't like side barriers 😂) Question: As a fellow Wahoo user, why do you have the navigation page on? Because of no time to explore the course? Always wanted to now what data riders are looking at during races. Thanks!
greatl, race organizers should look theese ! Always amazed how you race to win and have all this brain space for entertaining content and story telling while in the race.
@@jasperverkuijl no worries! Even better that we got some race vids end of the year. Would love to see you attempt another haute alp oder anything like that next year
Its a very old product that’s not in production anymore. Insta360 has something that will do the job, search for top cap mount on their website accessories www.insta360.com/sal/x4?INR47RE
Die bestaat niet meer. Maar er zijn wel Andere top caps met GoPro mount. Nu heeft insta360 ook een hele stevige top cap mount dus kijk daar even naar! Link in top comment 🫡
It’s one that isn’t available anymore. But insta360 has one that’s very sturdy for the top cap. Otherwise a top cap with GoPro mount will work too. But, they can’t be super tight (the plug will not hold that) so tend to loosen… also not approved for off road/high speed/bumpy road. (Check insta360 website specs on the top cap mount)
@@jasperverkuijlbtw. He is an elite level amateur like yourself. I have no idea how can you manage work, racing and family on a daily basis. I would burn out in one month.
No. We (Dutch riders) have to buy it for like €190! Mine was last years model that I never used. It’s required to ride in a jersey that “represents your country colors” so anything orange would work haha. Yes, it’s stil amateur level….
Leuke video! Op 18:18 zie je Bjorn De Decker (de latere winnaar) demarreren. Was rond km70. Heeft heel de wedstrijd samen met een andere renner voorop gereden. Op 16km van het einde zijn 4renners weggereden op de laatste kleine helling. De ene renner die net voor het peleton binnenkwam was op ongeveer 1,5km van het einde nog weggereden. Gek dat je dat allemaal niet gezien hebt want wat ik zie in je video heb je bijna heel de race in men wiel gereden. 😄 was trouwens ook diegene die de voorlaatste bocht de nederlandse renner Jimmy De Bruyn aantikte🫣 Jimmy week bij het indraaien heel lichtjes uit of stuurde net iets minder in dan mezelf. Ging gelukkig net goed!
hey Joeri, Ja achteraf is het altijd makkelijk terugkijken 😉.....zoals ik al zei in de video reed ik conservatief en niet voor een ontsnapping. Die aanval van Bjorn is toeval dat die in m'n edit zit. Had zeker niet het idee dat dat de ontsnapping van de dag zou worden... Het begon daar net wat sneller te gaan maar had het idee dat het daarna allemaal weer bij elkaar was gekomen.. Op die klim had ik zeker verwacht dat er wat weg gereden is, maar ik zat niet vooraan dus kan ik dat ook niet zien in de chaos met nog 100 witte nummers... Ik was niet de enige die bij de streep verbaasd was hoor.. meerdere hadden niet door dat er rijders weg waren. Die een na laatste bocht, ja dat is racen he ;) gelukkig ging het goed idd 👍
How much do you train? Since you work a lot I personally work around 60 hours a week in summer can shift up to 70 so training 10 hours can get me pretty coocked 😂 maybe is need a whoop cus I’m probly overreaching for like a month until I have vacation
Ha! saw a guy I know in the 1st 5mins. Yeah that's what my some guys I know who did it said. They said it was completely crazy and crashes everywhere and people riding like maniacs. They made it to the finishing sprint in the main group but a few picked staying safe rather than risking a crash and were just happy to finish in one piece. One guy I know got a top 10 in another category with a completely buckled rubbing front wheel after an early crash! No idea how he rode it to the finish...

I think I mention it in the video ;) so you should watch it again 😆💪
@jasperverkuijl Yup, got the answer, thanks! Good luck with future races and congratulations with a +1 🍼 to your family.
🙌🏻🙌🏻
greatl,
race organizers should look theese !
Always amazed how you race to win
and have all this brain space for entertaining content and story telling while in the race.
🤙🏻 I guess it’s my job and I got some practice at it 😉🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
I love it
Been so long to see these videos.
🤙🏻🤙🏻 yeah it’s been a busy year for me with less races and less time to edit 😅
🚼🐣
@@jasperverkuijl no worries! Even better that we got some race vids end of the year. Would love to see you attempt another haute alp oder anything like that next year
I've got an X3 and interested in the mount you have on the stem - you got more info on this?
Its a very old product that’s not in production anymore. Insta360 has something that will do the job, search for top cap mount on their website accessories www.insta360.com/sal/x4?INR47RE
Waar heb je die bevestiging gekocht voor je insta360?
Die bestaat niet meer. Maar er zijn wel
Andere top caps met GoPro mount.
Nu heeft insta360 ook een hele stevige top cap mount dus kijk daar even naar! Link in top comment 🫡
@ O oké Tnxs. 💪
Hey Jasper, which mount did u use for the Insta 360? Do you have a link?
It’s one that isn’t available anymore. But insta360 has one that’s very sturdy for the top cap. Otherwise a top cap with GoPro mount will work too. But, they can’t be super tight (the plug will not hold that) so tend to loosen… also not approved for off road/high speed/bumpy road. (Check insta360 website specs on the top cap mount)
@@jasperverkuijlthanks! I will try the one from 360. And hopefully it holds 😅

31:47. HUN rider ZÁRAY checks in. ^.^
Hungary guys was fast
@@jasperverkuijl Avg over 40 kph, you weren't holding it back.
@@jasperverkuijlbtw. He is an elite level amateur like yourself. I have no idea how can you manage work, racing and family on a daily basis. I would burn out in one month.
@@fpeter01 40kph is nothing in a peloton...... it was a slow race. My avg power was lower than hard 5h races..
how you manage your x4 to cover the long race? did you have backup battery or connect to a powerbank?
You assume I record start to finish….. that’s a wrong assumption haha
@jasperverkuijl just a tought. Haha.. anyways nice jobs for securing you 360 not falling down. I just tried your mounting style. 😅
@@Onix88ify I start stop the camera during the whole race
For me scary travelling at speed with so many obstacles on this narrow City roads
That’s the usual on a criterium haha 😜
does dutch cycling federation gives you the jersey? why not all the dutch and belgium riders have the same jersey?
No. We (Dutch riders) have to buy it for like €190!
Mine was last years model that I never used.
It’s required to ride in a jersey that “represents your country colors” so anything orange would work haha.
Yes, it’s stil amateur level….
Leuke video! Op 18:18 zie je Bjorn De Decker (de latere winnaar) demarreren. Was rond km70. Heeft heel de wedstrijd samen met een andere renner voorop gereden. Op 16km van het einde zijn 4renners weggereden op de laatste kleine helling. De ene renner die net voor het peleton binnenkwam was op ongeveer 1,5km van het einde nog weggereden. Gek dat je dat allemaal niet gezien hebt want wat ik zie in je video heb je bijna heel de race in men wiel gereden. 😄 was trouwens ook diegene die de voorlaatste bocht de nederlandse renner Jimmy De Bruyn aantikte🫣 Jimmy week bij het indraaien heel lichtjes uit of stuurde net iets minder in dan mezelf. Ging gelukkig net goed!
joeri , het moet wel spannend blijven voor de kijkers he 🤪
hey Joeri,
Ja achteraf is het altijd makkelijk terugkijken 😉.....zoals ik al zei in de video reed ik conservatief en niet voor een ontsnapping. Die aanval van Bjorn is toeval dat die in m'n edit zit. Had zeker niet het idee dat dat de ontsnapping van de dag zou worden... Het begon daar net wat sneller te gaan maar had het idee dat het daarna allemaal weer bij elkaar was gekomen.. Op die klim had ik zeker verwacht dat er wat weg gereden is, maar ik zat niet vooraan dus kan ik dat ook niet zien in de chaos met nog 100 witte nummers...
Ik was niet de enige die bij de streep verbaasd was hoor.. meerdere hadden niet door dat er rijders weg waren.
Die een na laatste bocht, ja dat is racen he ;) gelukkig ging het goed idd 👍
ook dat! 💪😆
YT gold
Must have been great to wear your national colours!
Wow! That's good to see racing like in good old days. Orgs should be ashamed of themselves.
🙏🙏
hey Jasper, any idea where I can buy that exact skinsuit that you are using in the video? Greetings from Italy
There is no such thing as Italy we are going to take back our land and culture form You knuckle dragging Neanderthals 👍😀
It’s last years national skinsuit. Nowhere you can buy it now.
I can sell you mine 🤷🏼♂️ worn 3 times…
@@jasperverkuijl Thanks for the offer but I don't like the idea of used bibs. Great video!
You don’t? 🤨 take one for the team bro! 😎
😜
Hi Jasper, what width bars do you use?
42. I have 38 on my other bike and want to swap to 38’s on this one too
@@jasperverkuijl Cool I'm thinking of doing the swap from 42 to 38 also
What type of mounting you use..
This was an old mount i had laying around. (It’s from Tacx)
Now insta360 had very nice bike specific mounts 👌
How much do you train? Since you work a lot I personally work around 60 hours a week in summer can shift up to 70 so training 10 hours can get me pretty coocked 😂 maybe is need a whoop cus I’m probly overreaching for like a month until I have vacation
10-15 hours a week. Avg probably 12.
I never not work 😉 (my RUclips business takes up all my free time)
Ha! saw a guy I know in the 1st 5mins. Yeah that's what my some guys I know who did it said. They said it was completely crazy and crashes everywhere and people riding like maniacs. They made it to the finishing sprint in the main group but a few picked staying safe rather than risking a crash and were just happy to finish in one piece. One guy I know got a top 10 in another category with a completely buckled rubbing front wheel after an early crash! No idea how he rode it to the finish...
Thats why I tried to stay in front of the peloton the whole race and not in the blob😅
Watching how close everyone is riding is making me anxious.
That’s racing!
Спидометра скорости еще ни хватает на экране) понять с какой скоростью едете?)
Fast
Jasper, in de 19-34 cat. moesten wij ook al heel veel mensen inhalen van de mediofondo...
Dat geloof ik!
niceeeee
