Nicely done Sir! I don't think most Americans really have an appreciation for just how hard/fast cross races are at the World Cup level. Your POV videos and _commentary_ really bring it home.
Thanks! Appreciate the encouragement. It is hard. Only one American even finished on the lead lap. That’s how hard it is. Ha.
Brilliant! Great music, hard racing cyclocross! Good luck, Drew! Such a hard sport! Thank you for the footage and comments, nice to get insights. 😊
Thanks for following along!
Very fine gravel racing!
thnx for uploading your videos. I've seen all of them since Gavere. what a beautiful experience must this have been in one of the best Cyclocross seasons EVER! With such a crowd in every race ... Gavere, Diegem, Loenhout and of course Zonhoven. Have a nice travel back. See ya next year. Cheerzzz
Thanks for following! Definitely a great trip.
Glad you had some nice weather to finish off and experience those crowds. Really enjoyed your videos. Safe trip home.
Thanks!
I saw an age-old GCN video on cyclocross at Zonhoven, searched for a video, and I am gald I clicked on yours. The intercut explanations are gold! Also, you are doing really well!
Thanks! Appreciate that. Cool to hear my videos are popping up with GCN videos. Haha.
Great POV and comments. First one of your videos I've seen and will be watching some of the earlier ones. Racing in Europe is a huge step from the US. Awesome you're there doing some of them.
Thanks! It was a fun trip. It’s a whole other ball field in Europe. Haha
Thanks for videos! They were great to watch and really brought you right on to the course.
Thanks for watching!
Literally the best trainer ride videos!Great footage, bumpin music, and a little coaching thrown in. Well done sir. Keep em coming!
For sure. Will do!
Thank You! A whole new perspective here. Great riding!
Thank you for watching!
heavy race for your last one in europe, enjoy any break you have before crits start, glad i found your channel, thoroughly enjoyed your insights during the races.
Yep. I get a break. No big races until April.
Good grief, that looked like a nightmare. Bravo for tackling that feat.
It was scary! Thanks.
Watched every one of these. Thanks for sharing your perspective and congrats on a great season 👏
Thanks for watching and following!
The highlight of my week is watching a new Dillman video
Yes!!! But also, you should find more things to get excited about in life. Haha.
@@DrewDillmanChannel I have a very challenging and exciting job, three wonderful grandchildren( their parents are pretty ok also,) and preparing for several gravel races, I have lots to be excited about. But watching cross is always awesome. Looking forward to your Crit videos!
Awesome. Really glad to hear it! Thanks for watching.
Great season thanks for all the great videos . Prayers for safe travels my friend
Thanks Jimmy!
Thank you!
Congratz for your season. Next one even better for sure. Now time for the road :)
That’s right!
This course looks incredibly challenging and difficult. Way to rip it! Eventually you start to have some luck on those starts.
A real hard race to end your season with. Thanks. That was both entertaining and instructive about the issues faced by a rider. Very few have the skill set to compete at that level. The scene of those crowds spread out in front as you come down the big sand slope is epic.
Yes. This was an awesome race to end the season at. Crowds were bonkers. A ton of fun.
Serious question. In the USA races you seem to dominant quite effectively in the starts. What specifically makes the European starts so much more challenging? Thanks for your awesome videos
Starting near the back doesn’t help because I can’t really control what other people do. It becomes more about battling through the chaos than about how fast I clip in and get off the line. And I’m not really one to push the boundaries of danger (I’d rather not crash) but starting on the front you don’t have to really worry about danger at all.
If GoPro or Insta360 ever come out with a VR cam I'll get the VR headset just to watch ur vids!
Awesome. Haha.
Thanks for sharing your Euro racing experience! Lots of fun from this side. Looking forward to next season. Some beer, waffles, and frits before you get going on that base training for crit season?
Yep. I’ll enjoy some off season before getting back to the grind. Haha
Great going really nice to see you had your family with you. GET A TRACK BIKE it’s very zen
Never.
So many races in such a short time. Do you still feel your legs? How much higher is the idle HR these days?
Yea, I’m definitely ready for the time off now. Surprising what a rest day sprinkled in here and there can do. But HR was a bit lower for yesterdays race for sure.
Epic to see inside a World Cup race. How did you get away with filming isn’t it banned?
It was banned before last year but as of last year it’s allowed. Never had anyone question it.
How much is down to unlucky starts vs just the other riders being super strong
Definitely a bit of both. I wouldn’t say it’s fully one or the other. Definitely room for improvement in my start skills. But near crashes in front of me doesn’t help at all.
I saw that guy running on the live coverage, and I thought jokingly, “I bet that guy started in front of Drew.” 😂😢
Yep. You guessed correctly! Haha.
Better to be the broken chain guy or the almost died guy? You’ve had both this season! I guess both probably suck
Yea. Broken chain got almost died as well. Haha. I almost died when I chain too.
Amazing video. It would have been super cool to actually hear the race instead of some crappy royalty free music.
