- Check out what gear from my Tour Divide set up worked and what I'd change if I were to race again. I learned a lot from this race and I was really happy with the decisions I made pre-race. Thanks for watching!

Joe: "Here's my jacket, think it smells a bit now." Off camera: "Can confirm!" That's gold.
3rd, with a basic Garmin map, lost 6 hours in a hotel, amazing, you could have won that.......
You absolutely smashed TD this year Joe, glad to see the setup worked well!
Thanks guys! The bags worked a treat 👌
Epic performance, many congratulations
Awesome race man, well done!
Looking forward to that footage
Great review! You clearly know your gear intimately after surviving two weeks with it. Well done. I'm also curious about a human review and what you would do differently for preparation and during the race for self-preservation
Congrats on your solid ride. Thanks for sharing your kit review.
great result mate, well done
Congrats on your amazing results Joe ! Found your vid really interesting, wow that is a minimalistic set up !
Awesome Joe thank you for sharing your post race kit assessment with us. Hope recovery is going well.
Awesome, what a ride. I was dot watching you all the way! Sounds like your setup was pretty spot on, and the paper notes were a great idea.
Helpful video thanks Joe. And awesome effort. Really cool to see you come in third.
Congratulations Joe, excellent performance.
Bravo from Greece.
Well done Joe. Excellent race. I'm curious to see what your next adventure is.
Excellent ride Joe! was a blast to watch you push through that second half. congrats on the podium
Awesome debrief. Awesome achievement. Wonderful attention to detail. Thank you for sharing! :)
New subscriber from California here Joe. Thank you for sharing this and congrats on your 3rd place finish, especially as a rookie!
Nice video ! Thanks for sharing your gears and review after using it ! Well done :)
Congratulations on your podium finish. Great result! Very pleasing to hear that your planning and decisions paid off. I was dot watching and viewing Josh Ibbett's RUclips each day too.
Well on your divide result Joe. And thank you for sharing the gear overview. Will look out with interest for whatever you find on the gopro
Congratulations! Really enjoyed following along 🎉
Thanks!
Congratulations for your third place and thanks for sharing yours gears choices.
Sounds like a chain guide would sort your mud and chain issue.
Well done on the race bro, had the whole family following your dots!
Excellent work Joe!
Thanks!
Fun cheering you on when you came into Fernie!
Amazing Effort Joe .
Awesome result Joe, I followed your Tour Divide progress the whole way, and have been keeping an eye on you since March. I'm one of the three hooning geriatrics who flew past while you were grinding up the McKenzie Pass on your way to cleaning up the Sounds to Sounds back in March, we were doing our own comparatively gentle stroll from Bluff to Nelson. You're a huge inspiration mate, congratulations from NZ!
Thanks for the support mate, yip I remember your crew well, was envious of what looked to be a support car 👌
@@joe.nation Yup, my wife was driving the support car, plus we had good meals and accommodation every night, so we had a total blast on our random back country route north. A bonus was we passed and sometimes chatted to heaps of Sounds to Sounds maniacs plus a bunch of cheerful Te Araroa walkers who after 2500km "only had 500km to go". Back country NZ is awesome!
I tipped u for the podium. Supported you all the way. Brilliant job 😊
"This was fantastic.....because it's a multitool" - spec valuable info right there! GOLD
Nice work! Awsome stuff
Great result mate, was watching your dot from Christchurch, such an inspiration.
Thanks mate!
New subscriber here from Tennessee. Thanks for sharing your info post event. Very helpful. Cheers!
Fantastic video, really useful
Congrats on your finish. I saw a bunch of the leaders in whitefish
Thanks for sharing 👏
Thank you so much for sharing your hard-won tips and tricks; these represent an immense amount of experience that we won’t have to suffer through to get the benefit of! Sleeping in pants and booties is brilliant, and the quick release bags are slick, but there is so much more to appreciate in the details of what you have shared. Were you mixing your drink in the bags as you filled them, or did you have another way to use your powders? Great job, well done!
Thanks a lot! Great to hear it is useful to you. The only drinks I was mixing was the occasional protein shake at night time, which id shake in a water bottle. For electrolytes I had salt tablets, which mean no mixing needed 👍
Aspen and 36T! This guy is a beast!
Well Done Joe! New Subscriber here…can you share your route notes, particularly the water and resupply points? I’m doing Canada and MT sections later this month. Great Vid….Keep pedaling! THANK YOU!
Congrats super result. Maybe try tailfin for more storage.
Kudos!
Felicitaciones, great ride! I was a bit surprised to see you were not carrying 2 GPS units...
My back up was the Gaia app on my phone, as a i don't own 2 gps units. Just had to keep the phone use to a minimum for battery purposes though
Nice job!! Looking forward to the gopro footage!! Was the main advantage of electronic shifting the fact that you can shift from 2 different places on the bike, which I think is brilliant, or...? I believe one of your competitors had a real problem with his electronic shifting. As someone who's never used it it seems to me like you open yourself up to a significant point of failure. Just curious.
Yeh the failure of electronics is scary, hence buying the spare charger and having 3/4 batteries. But I reckon it's worth it for being able to change gears on your aero bars, and also minimise nerve damage over 5 day plus races that I have gotten in the past by overuse of ny thumb and a cable
You mentioned scratching your suspension fork, do you mean your stanchions got scored from all the mud, rocks, dirt, sand, etc? I can see how racing the Tour Divide would wear on a fork, when I lived out there I found the old school stanchion boots were useful for protecting suspension forks.
Incredible ride. Do you know which model of profile désign aerobar you have ? Thanks
Awsome job! was watching your dot all the way. What was the cream you used instead of the chamois cream? I can't quite catch the name in the video.
Thanks! It's Avene Cicalfate+ 👌
@@joe.nation Cheers! Got myself a tube today
I’m curious on the bivy used. Would you mind sharing a link to the bivy?
Nice work Joe! Where can I message you with a couple questions?
could you share a link for the down pants? great video. cheers

Hi Joe, Could l ask did your bike have side mounts for the bottles or is it a special attachment ?
www.cyclewerks.co.nz/product/bottle-cage-double-adaptor. This is it!
Nice! Quick question. Are you sponsored by POC or did you happen to just buy your entire kit from them?
POC gave me the option of some free kit, so when Im paying for everything else myself it was a huge help!
which aliexpress down pants? (and aliexpress down booties?) Thanks.
You mention a resupply cue sheet on your aerobars you used more than the paper in your bags... what was that?
I did the same thing with my garmin cycling down the coast of the US..... got it in Europe and pressed start to a white map, only way to fix it is a computer.....
How new was your gear pls
Reckon you could dig out the link for those aliexpress pants? They look mint
I'll second that pant request please!

Here's the link guys, I went for the lighter weight set, and remember to go up a size or 2 because they are small, i think I went XL at 178cm tall
@@joe.nation cheers bro, looking forward to trying this plus bivvy and pad for my next trip 🤘
@@joe.nation will have to do a back-to-back with standard vs "thicken"
Jo- which Ali Express down pants were they mate ? Pls can you share a link ?

”can confirm" 😂
What happened to the BB?
Would you ride with flat pedals if you did it again?
I'll keep trying a few different shoe and pedal combos. I do most of my racing in clips, but I really appreciated being able to change the angle and position of my feet all the time. Just like the hands. But if i find a rock solid clip pedal/shoe combo in the future id use that
👍
What is the double bottle mount on your downtube?
www.cyclewerks.co.nz/product/bottle-cage-double-adaptor
I feel stupid. I have never seen the front roll in the "aero position" and it looks just logical.
Haha your intro graphics😂
This race is supposed to be unsupported, correct? Why do riders seem to carry almost no food? I mean they have a few snacks in a feed bag, as they call it.
I must be missing something. Someone fill me in?
Well done Joe, followed you on dotwatchers , and thought you did great pace
Such an awesome ride and no doubt it must have been a sufferfest at times.
Kudos to you on the podium.
Enjoy your recuperation in Scotland, but keep that bugspray with you for the bloody midges!!! 🦟🦟
