    My wife passed away from stage 4 cancer after 5 1/2 years of immense fight to stay alive and seeing Gustav's mother was really very emotional - i wish your Mom a healthy journey filled with love and kindness

      Unfortunately she died in may. She was active as a veteran cyclist before getting sick, very nice person, friendly and down to earth. So unfair to see her go that early from cancer.

    I love it when someone ( or more) come along and raise the bar to the next level. Not just the sport of triathlon is benefiting from the Norwegian approach , they are changing the game for many sports.

    Just started with Zwift, it's a great app, scenery is good, I see what you mean with it being a little easier to stay motivated in doors. For me riding on the road where I live in country Queensland, there are too many large trucks and terrible roads. It's not worth the risk of riding outdoors. Getting used to the app slowly. A great little app. As for your mother, I wish her well.

    That was a great video, and something to show anybody who thinks zwift is not like "real" cycling :-) If it is good enough for world champions and olympic winners, it will do in age group 50-55 as well 🙂

    13.52 is filthy. Correct me if I'm wrong but no one with a LC background comes anywhere close. That's why SC dudes will always dominate LC if they transition correctly. Would love to see Alex Yee make the switch eventually

  • @MrPeperoni79
    @MrPeperoni79 Год назад +3

    11:00 of course you can get "humiliated" by people who are adapted to short competitions with on/off efforts where tactics are relevant; you need a high VLaMax to win on Zwift races and a hugh anaerobic capacity. You need in particular a low VLaMax to win on Kona because otherwise, you cannot refuel the carbs you consume and a high anaerobic capacity gets you nowhere since you spend not a single second in the zone where that is relevant. It is as if world class guitar player is confused about a mediocre piano player beating him in piano playing.

      The mindset is good though, fight with everybody, even if they are specialists in other dicipline than you, or on way shorter ride than you.
