Dude that was awesome he literally destroyed I guess zach I dk these people in the saddle where everyone else is sprinting I think it was power but also composure just thinking about ur breathing so u can do some crazy wattage
I did 950 miles in 3 days on gas station food a couple years ago, from salt lake city to Omaha... sounds terrible, but it works. and it wasnt that bad the weekend before that, was 810 miles in 3 days from morgan hill ca to SLC.... crossing nevada on hwy 50...that's about the only option you have... especially when youre riding thru some of these towns w? real food in the middle of the night, and they're closed.
Same course I ran in 2003? on a Sunday NCNCA event...took 3rd OA in the 30+ open class behind two pros..Kline & a Navigators guy (Bernard i think). Of course I rode the DEATH Ride on Saturday for warm up....
So might be stupid question, however. When it comes to the devo team, do you treat them as teammates or as other competitors during races? I.E. mike's bike devo and mikes bike. Or terun elite and Terun devo. Do you work as one large team or two different teams?
Some question from regular folk.... Do you work a full time job as well? Im just wondering how you get the time and money to travel and buy nice equipment. Secondly, I thought you had said in an earlier video that the back people spend more energy than the front due to the elasticity having to pedal to catch up,etc, whereas the front spend less? Finally, what is your threshold wattage?
The commentator in the channel and most of his team do work 9-5 jobs to my knowledge. He's got two interview videos out that explain some of this if you're interested. ruclips.net/video/FkyAgJ6EOpg/видео.html ruclips.net/video/QKckXPhEVDE/видео.html
@@lankysapien3032 oh, that's cool to know that people who do so well are not exclusively devoting their time to this diversion and to know that you dont need to spend a fortune on equipment.
Gas-station puts in hero effort, nearly dies, and comes back! What-plus he makes the channel blow up? You have to make him full time-he is worth the money.
hindsight (almost a year later :-) : you maybe should've dropped him off to your right and kept left without allowing a gap between you and the side of the road. That way Zach had to go around and the other rider had to go around you AND Zach.
NorCal Cycling I mean, I saw a (small) chance you could have blocked his best line a bit and maybe even held him left of your back wheel while Zac was going right around you, but that would have been a bit... naughty :-)
@@l.d.t.6327 Oh I see what you mean. It's one thing to 'block' a lane through a corner or crosswind or something, but to intentionally change your line on a flat stretch of road to obstruct someone about to pass you is very dangerous and very against the rules. It's also very effective so that's why people often try it in the world tour and get DQ'd or relegated.
@@NorCalCycling I didn't mean any ill intent in the sense of pushing opponents into the barriers or the like. But your opponent could have gotten a bit cross-wheeled or blocked at your left side side (along the barrier) if you held that line a bit more, and there would have been no way out for your opponent with your team mate nex to him, unless your team mate starts the sprint, and even then he would have to come around you first. It would take excellent manoevering / timing and eyes on the back to pull this off. I only started thinking about this as I saw your opponent was first to take off from your wheel and passed you on an opening left, while your team mate was technically a bit obstructed by you as there was only room for one rider at a time to pass you on the left. If it was the other way around (e.g. you keeping the left), your team mate would have the opening on the right while your opponent would have to get around you first.
@@l.d.t.6327 you may be overthinking this. He passed on the left bc there was space. If I didn't allow space he would have just passed on the right. It's a straight road without wind so there isn't a better side.
That cheeky smile from Cole had my lol-ing at how everything unfolded before him
Seeing a leadout from this perspective is so much more exciting.
I saw this race in person. Got inspired to race myself.
So I raced to the fridge and got out some milk for my NutterButters (tm).
I am a mountain biker and still find these super enjoyable. Thanks for all the hard work.
Love the new format with changing front and rear camera views as the primary. Nice job! Cole laughing with 1/2 lap to go was epic!
Cole attacking on the saddle for the win at the end ;-; what a beast

Dude I always learn so much with these videos. and FFS to see Cole smiling at 600W WTH! Great videos!

As soon as your power dropped Cole jumped and your team mate let the door open, so he took the best of your leadout for the win
he sensed the power drop really quick and just jumped on. world class!
Great videos as always! thank you for your work into it. Could you make a video on how to train for this type of races (crits)?

At 11:23 the ball on the map starts to go crazy 😂😂😂

Check out the video on his bike. He doesn't actually have a super expensive setup. A nice frame, Ultegra Di2, and Chinese carbon wheels.

Always binge watching your videos😂
Greetings from Italy
!
nice race!
I can feel the smoothness of the road
Awesome videos and commentary. What video editing software do you use or recommend?
Thanks! Dashware. Check out my channel I made a video about it.
I remember seeing 3 mikes bikes on the front before the last two corners thinking they had so much control and wrapped up the whole race.
Jeff, what's with the 2 different Mike's Bikes kits? "Different" teams? Or Old kit?
How does the crashing work with sending people back in the race? It sounds like they get put into the place where they were before the crash.
It's the official's decision. usually they put you back into the group you crashed from.
Early in the race yes. Towards the end no. Sometimes a lap count cut off is in place
Woo WOOO! It's like a alarm clock; you 'sposed to be up makin' breakfast
How much did you get for a preme
That was a cool race!
Love this stuff

Where did Chris, I mean gasstationfoodcyclist, get a Minnesota accent? Dontchaknow
GasStationFoodCyclist using $5 words... Let's pontificate!
Tertiary
What distance was that lap. What was average mph
What is a "preem" (spelling?) lap?
I was at the 2023 race today!
best....amazing
Tough to beat a dude like Cole. Dude just took off ala peter Sagan. Congrats to Zach for the win last weekend and 2nd place this weekend.
Why is your gps map going crazy?
The tall buildings
Why doesn’t he reccy upgrading? & did dude upgrade from 3->2?
It can be tough going from one field to the other in the middle of a season, especially from 3/4 to p/1/2.
yep, from cat 3 to 2.
Nice
What’s a pream?
Prize lap
gasstationfoodcyclist xD
15:14 lol cole and Zack joke
15:54 almost killed a lol
at 1:32 he says chase while he rides next to a chase store
The map is on drugs, swear, it wasn't me.
the buildings mess with the gps

on a straight road without considerable wind, it doesn't a difference. Cole was going to come around zac no matter where we were
