Was going to post the same thing - you need a little sunshade for the trainer. I forgot about this until a week ago, when the sun was the just the right spot in the sky again and bang -power went crazy. Took me 5 min to remember it was the sun shining in the window.
Huge thanks for continuing to commit to these videos. I think the periodic videos with more details is awesome. Quality over quantity. Thanks for all you do!
Congratulations Maven! Really glad you got the video out, I knew how hard this was and wondered how you would make something interesting out of something so static. However you succeeded again, really enjoyed it. You really have a talent mate👍👍
Welcome back Maven, you absolute legend !!! What an accomplishment! Very inspirational for anyone that considers themselves less fit than they would like, anything can be accomplished, its the WILL that makes it happen !
Fantastic to see you posting again! Top job ticking off those routes, has proved a good motivator to get my turbo back out and working on fitness! Hoping you've got more videos in the pipeline! 🤘
So happy I stumbled upon you and this video, everything about it was ace! Your attitude, the challenge, the storytelling, the filming and the support of your family. It was all incredible and inspiring. I’m subscribed and hopefully there’s more to come! Kudos mate 👏
Do yourself a favour and go back through the Maven archives from the beginning. So much great content, amazing people, ups and downs, and fantastic stories!
You are an absolute legend to complete this challenge and to share it with us. And your wife is an absolute legend to be so happy and supportive of you especially with those young people to look after! Well done to you both 👍
Yes Mark!! You (and Hannah) are bloody legends. Very inspiring. True grit and a gooch like leather 😆. Very well done and love seeing back on RUclips. X
Great to see you and the family back. Amazing work, so glad you stated that you still found time during the challenge to enjoy life - eg barbi and beer and some time with the children. Hannah once again so supportive.
Cracking Video Mark, not only the riding itself looked tough but the editing was gold standard as usual & 10/10 for Hanna to allow you not only to be able to complete the Challange but also allowing you to walk about with the Hugh Hefner dressing gown on camera 😂 love it champ & see you at sandown “you legend”
Welcome back mark its amazing to see after a year your still into cycling you still enjoy doing RUclips videos, family is doing well. So happy for u bud keep up the good work 😁👍
Congratulations TEAM Maven! There is something to be said about setting your mind on something and fully commit to it. No one can take away that sense accomplishment. Chapeau to you and your family.
Can honestly say this is a mega achievement. The Uber pretzel is so tough. The climbing in all the courses is hard but the mental challenge is next level. Fair play, absolute legend
This is simply brilliant. How much I’ve missed this man. Thanks Maven you absolute legend. Wish you could be a regular feature in my viewing. Mahooosive fan x
Hey Mark, great to see some new content from you. Lovely to see your growing family and the beautiful Hannah too! Give us some more content soon matey ❤
Great performance maven. Myself I'm a hobby zwifter for a year now and I even didn't found the courage to ride the last 6 routes you did in a week for over a year. So: great job. And also a big hug to your family. Like you say, without them it's nearly an impossible job. Well done as well Hannah.
Chapeau Maven! I really struggle on the trainer, so this challenge and you knocking it off just blew my mind! Team effort for both you and Hannah, she's awesome! 2 minute noodles as a mid ride snack, can't believe I never thought of that.
I remember when you were doing this challenge, I was completing all my route badges, but I was doing 2 or 3 a week. You inspired me at the time, thank you.
Great to see you back, awesome challenge. Totally lost my mojo over the past few months, not ridden or done anything. Hoping to get myself in a good place to get back on it. This certainly helps the motivation. Thank you
Great video Mark. Followed you as you did this challenge so finally seeing this shows just what you went through (Hannah too). I struggle to do more than 2 hours on the trainer but might try some of the longer routes over xmas. Hats off to ya. 👍
Great see you back on the youtubes! I miss those heady days when you created something special. But, and it's a big but, you have created something possibly more special since. Peace brother!!
Just stumbled across this and wow that was fun to watch. As a seasoned cyclist if I were to do this I would separate the long/hard days and sprinkle in some easy/shorter rides between as recovery days. Well done Maven and your wife is amazing!!!
I did the PRL half last night and it’s not the actual cycling which is tough it’s the repetition of it, dreading the full! Mad effort - props from the UK! 👌
ohh mate, what a moment! Hopped on the trainer for the first time in almost 8 months yesterday was thinking about you. Missed your videos. Heck I remember when you and Hannah announced the first pregnancy...time flies. Great seeing this, glad you are well, and yes... Hannah is an absolute legend for this. I watch my wife take care of our 14 month old while Im gone on work, its not easy. You said it right, selfish challenge... but stoked you completed it! Ride on mave!
What a legend!!! This is inspiring! I'm currently doing a 100 days in a row on Zwift challenge with the finish trying to complete the Festive 500...big challenge for me, and like I said this is inspiring. Thanks!!!
It’s so nice to see a new video and see you all looking well. Not sure I’ll be taking this challenge on myself but I’m happy in the knowledge that my maven cravings are satisfied once again. Stay well brother.
That was an amazing feat of endurance and perseverance. I have done them all except the PRL Full, but by no means could i do two in consecutive days. Great video.
Your an absolute hero.. took some mental strength, makes me want to get a trainer and zwift! (but not do your challenge! ha) - your wife is so lovely and supportive, its inspiring! I love how you fit this in around your family
Take Hannah out for dinner mate. (But pay your own way. This $ is for her) :)
Woah bro! Very kind of you, she has a smile from ear to ear. xx

I miss this man being on YT. Unbelievable achievement. Also Hannah just being an absolute class human being. Loved this maven, good to see ya again.
Really miss Maven riding crits. Were the first cycling vlogs I started watching on RUclips.
@@mrm95 same, I loved this guy's vlogs and CRIT commentary when he was known as cycling maven.
FINALLY got around to making this video.
Who's doing the challenge? (tip: Don't!)
I've been on Zwift since 2015 and still haven't done most of the long routes, let alone 30 days in a row. No plans to either. 🤣
hmmm , dec 24 th to jan 8th - 16 days , winter boot camp
MAVEN! Good to see you mate! (btw - The older Kickrs were vampires. They didn't like direct sunlight)
Was going to post the same thing - you need a little sunshade for the trainer. I forgot about this until a week ago, when the sun was the just the right spot in the sky again and bang -power went crazy. Took me 5 min to remember it was the sun shining in the window.
I was so happy to see another Maven video pop up in my feed! I love your work and I can't wait for another update on you, fitness, family, and life.
Maven is BACK!!!
Huge thanks for continuing to commit to these videos. I think the periodic videos with more details is awesome. Quality over quantity. Thanks for all you do!

Great to see you man! The kids are getting big and Hannah looks great! Be well!
30 minutes of Maven -- an absolute treat! Good to see you're still kicking along Mark.
Great to see you back Maven. A whole year's worth of content in the bag I see - looking forward to the Neistat-esque great comeback!
Great work Mark - super effort on the challenge! - & very well documented/recorded!

Pure motivation! Great video...thanks for that!
I struggle to spend more than two and a half hours on a trainer so I'm in absolute awe that you've done that 30days running. Really well done mate 👍
Made my day to see a Maven Vlog. 🙌
Wow epic efforts! Also Hannah's support was phenomenal!
Chapeau Maven! I really struggle on the trainer, so this challenge and you knocking it off just blew my mind! Team effort for both you and Hannah, she's awesome! 2 minute noodles as a mid ride snack, can't believe I never thought of that.

Good work fella. Nice to see you challenging yourself. Love your work. Get outside. See you out on the road.

Solid effort Mark. Sounds like pure torture.
Hannah is a boss. Real kickass lady you got there, dude.
Love this maven! Been a long time viewer! Great challenge and an equally great effort :)
Great to see you again :)
I love how you are climbing and only at 115W power. Truly inspiring! ;)
Great stuff well done 👍
You're back! ❤️
Heyy!!!!! You did it! Nice one m8!👏 That's a great watch too!
Great to have the maven back. Quality content as usual 👌🏻
That was awesome what a commitment to the indoor trainer especially in summer much respect.
Great vid matey!
Great effort dude. The 6 beers post ride made me giggle🤣
Great to see you back Mark 👍
It’s so nice to see a new video and see you all looking well. Not sure I’ll be taking this challenge on myself but I’m happy in the knowledge that my maven cravings are satisfied once again. Stay well brother.
It’s from 2021! He’s 100kg heavier now and has hair 😊
Hurray! Was just thinking that The Maven hasn't posted for an absolute age. Lovely to see the fam are all golden.
Glad you're back. ❤️👍🏿
This is impressive!
I’ve finished every route on Zwift but not a chance would I have done it on consecutive days, madness.
That was an amazing feat of endurance and perseverance. I have done them all except the PRL Full, but by no means could i do two in consecutive days. Great video.
I just started with Zwift. Didn’t know it could provide that level of training. Wow man !
Good job !
Your an absolute hero.. took some mental strength, makes me want to get a trainer and zwift! (but not do your challenge! ha) - your wife is so lovely and supportive, its inspiring! I love how you fit this in around your family
Great stuff mate!
Forgot how much I enjoyed watching maven!
Legendary stuff there Maven Mark!
Great work mate 😎💪
An outstanding achievement! Loved to watch it while pedal on zwift!
Amazing effort! The most I can handle on the Kickr is about 2 hours before I have to jump off! Well done, sir!
