  • Finish!! We did it! Team Wilson🇬🇧Goyette🇨🇦 conquered the Alps. Stage 5 was another epic stage crammed with great single tracks. The body felt good through the week; that means my training regimen was on point. I was worried about not being able to make it through, but now I’d say I could do another day or two of this 🤪🙃. I’m so stoked. I really pushed myself further than ever this year preparing for this event and seeing it all come together is utterly satisfying. Our time was 4:48:42 for the 63 km and 2200 m of climbing of stage 5. And a total of 26:38:34 for the event; 327 km and 11 000 m.

    Unmatched footage. Thank you so much! Wish I could ride that with you guys, but at least I found my favourite indoor training vids ..

    Great vids mate. Been using them as some motivation for some boring trainer sessions. They are some amazing trails.

    Restricted to the trainer again due to rib injury. Your videos are a god send to keep me occupied. Thank you! Hopefully you will be posting more?

    Thanks so much for your POV videos. My winter trainer experience has been transformed. Fun being virtually over your front wheel on the Swiss Epic stages, especially. Would love to know what your gopro set up is as I am thinking about documenting some of my MTB riding in Vermont.

    • @bengoyette
      @bengoyette  Год назад +1

      Thanks Rob. I was using the HERO10 Black with a Max Lens Mod attached. And I had an external battery connected to the GoPro so it would last longer.

      I use Garmin VIRB Edit for the overlay.

    Was it scary at all riding along the edge of the cliff for so long? I was scared just watching.

    • @bengoyette
      @bengoyette  2 года назад +2

      We're used to it. My local trails all have crazy exposure, so it's just something we deal with.

    Hey Ben your catalog has been part of my inspiration for racing since 2017. (Not a zwift fan) how are powering your camera for an entire race?? Battery swap or Battery pack? . Thanks bro

    • @bengoyette
      @bengoyette  8 месяцев назад +1

      Hi 👋 I used a small cylinder-shaped battery bank taped under the handlebar. Keep up the training!

      I can’t remember, I’ll have to look it up. Not first for sure, because that’s the race winner handing us the medal there at the end and he’s already showered and all

    Brilliant video. Were there any riders using flat pedals? I'd be one of them 😉

    • @bengoyette
      @bengoyette  Год назад +1

      I don’t recall, but I sure there were a few. Some sections were quite technical so that could help

    • @bengoyette
      @bengoyette  2 года назад +3

      Yep. It missed the last two stages. I had to pace by feels. I probably pushed a bit harder on that stage knowing it was the last and I was feeling good.

    Homes, did you ever do a video where you cover your bike setup and what you packed each day for this event?

    • @bengoyette
      @bengoyette  Год назад +1

      I haven't. But we packed light as we travelled by plane. My most valuable item was my Camelbak hydratation vest. It was light enough to wear all day and gave me that extra water & nutrition I needed to keep going. Most riders had only bottles.

    Why did you and the riders stop at 2:50?

    • @bengoyette
      @bengoyette  Год назад +1

      at 2:50:00 we were stopped because we had to wait our teammate to finish the climb. It was a team race, so we had to stay close enough to each other at all times.
