    This is insane, you never realise how hectic and physical these sprints are. There is so much pushing and shoving, close calls and shouting I am surprised crashes don't occur more often! Incredible, this has to create a revolution in watching cycling.

    in my early days of racing (mid-late 80s) the older guys always told us to ride on the white line (even when out on a solo training ride). that teaches you how to ride straight and totally relaxed so that when you're in a race and you're getting pushed to the edge it's no big deal. you won't freak out and crash when someone bumps you. that, and learning to handle your bike with your hips/body english rather than the bars, really come in handy in situations like this.

    • @c-record
      @c-record 10 лет назад +22

      Dali S duh, the more you race in these situations the better you get, but my point was that there are basic skills that a beginning racer should work on before they ever consider jumping into a chaotic racing pack at the amateur level. i see lack of these basic skills all the time even in local club rides. amateur races tend to be baptisms by fire because most guys don't work on their basic skills when they ride on their own. they freak out when they get pushed to the outside or get bumped and the result is usually a crash. the white line technique i prescribe teaches a rider how to hold a position smoothly and it's a crucial skill for pack riding and racing.

      Ride rollers. Sprint on rollers. You learn how to ride in a straight line while pushing in a hurry.

      when i was still using 20c tires on the front, i ride on white lines to lessen vibration until it became a habit... never expected i become "skilled" enough to ride side by side with others with barely less than 6in gap between handle bars.

    @rickiovine2170 5 лет назад +3

    Great job! You never really get a sense of how chaotic it is in the final kilometers of a sprint finish. Leadout men fighting to get to the front. Sprinters looking for a line. Teams trying to lineup. You feather your brake and you lose 20 places in line, and piss off other riders.
    I now understand what professional cyclists coming back from a lay-off mean when they say that they are still getting use to riding in a peloton. It is terrifying!

  • @artcycle42
    @artcycle42 10 лет назад +16

    The reason Degenkolb pushes the IAM rider, really it was a quick touch "hey I'm here", is because he's following his lead out train. Everyone respects that in the peleton. If he wasn't on his lead out train than it still would be fine most likely because they're a hell of lot closer to each other than it appears on these cameras that use fish eye lenses. So they're all just trying to hold the wheel in front of them or move up and at these speeds, hot damn!
    Go look up Robbie McEwen, you'll see some crazy aggressive sprinting.

    The perspective normally makes it appear worst than it actually is, this however, does not appear to be one of those "normal" situations. What we also don't hear too much of and what I can assure you, will send shivers down in your spine, is that insanely high pitched braking noise and the sound of carbon hitting the tarmac at 50+. Speaking from experience, not that level exactly, but as a serious enough amateur, its terrifying, I would often find myself well toward the back of a race that ended with mass sprint "carnage". Hats off to them, this is why I was never meant to be a pro, thankfully I am grateful.

    • @EatSleepTrainSmart
      @EatSleepTrainSmart 9 лет назад +2

      DrMorocho Don't get your hopes down because these sprints are a collaborative effort. They can't hit 40mph without some kind of help from rivals/ teammates. It also helps that they get to hang onto the wheels of world class cyclists to pull them up to speed.

      @cliffcox7643 5 лет назад

      The thing is, they can't sit in that group even if they tried. They'd be dropped as the strategy is to keep speed high. Once speed is high, you drop all the weaker riders, and only the fastest ones can even keep up in the last 1000M. Leaving only the top guys to sprint each other.
