      Thanks for posting this, so sad to think to have won and write with you guys and than find out this 😓
      I’ve just been on a ride and thought the whole time I won 🙈 it was a normal conversation, wouldn’t have expected this till asked between 130 and 200 dollars shipping 😅😂

      Just being shortlisted seemed pretty cool :-) thanks for the heads-up ...after writing the comment, it had me think that the bike I'm using is almost as old as the sport of triathlon itself - that's actually also quite cool, if I may say so.

    my favourite piece of aero kit is the ceramic speed oversized pulley wheel aero! lol! P.S Keep crushing it Lucy! In my mind you are the GOAT of triathlon. You’re an inspiration to all of us. Thank you for this video especially. I had a bike accident recently (nothing major) and I can’t train for a while so I’ll be binge watching team Charles Barclay content to pass the time and keep the tri-fire burning in me.

    Aww Lucy. Sitting here on crutches after serious knee surgery last Friday I cried through most of that. What a brilliant video first if all. Here is your Oscar 🏆haha. But mainly just so inspired by you and proud of your determination and grit. I think I’ll be watching this on repeat on dark days. Long distance Tri dreams may be out the window but I’m going to try tk keep them alive or find a new angle somehow. So so so so well done. From screwing a squirrel house on the fence with the drill the wrong way round and painting by numbers and sticking a biro in your eye to this triumph. CONGRATULATIONS. You are my absolute inspiration.
    Enjoy every moment of your success. Xxx

    The best piece of the aero kit for me are the Aerobars. They are conducive for the technical and hilly courses of triathlons, saving energy and time 😄.

  • @KrunchyKandy
    @KrunchyKandy 2 года назад +39

    The best piece of aero kit will always be the aero helmets. The white ones specifically. All my friends tell me that they look stupid, but they don't realize that those helmets look exactly like the ones the rebels wear in the first Star Wars movie.

    • @zwtvchannel
      @zwtvchannel 2 года назад

      You fell for that marketing bullshit didn’t ya. You are their favourite consumer because of your naivety. Aero helmet means as much as pissing into the wind.
      Can have all the “aero helmet” “ skin suit” socks the whole show but if your position on the bike is shit then you ain’t travelling anywhere very fast and that equipment means piss all..
      I did a 46km ITT yesterday in 64mins. Nothing but a normal helmet, socks and a Tri suit and no specific TT training in 2 years on a borrowed bike that costed a friend of mine $1000 bucks.. Only thing changed was the seat height and positioning and turns out the position was half decent. Flat as a pancake course that was pretty windy. Expensive kit and bikes means less than less if one you can’t ride because you’re fitness is shit and two your position on your current set up is crap..
      Companies use athletes like Lucy Charles to advocate for certain products because she makes them look fast and it’s what draws people in to buy yet.
      Be the person who spends 10k on everything else but the “pretty crap” because ultimately that’s what is going to make you faster.

    Congrats on the win but most importantly the lesson for us all on injury rehab. For us AG's there is no reason to rush the process and you showed that with your disciplined approach. My favorite aero accessory is my TriRig Scoops. They have helped me stay in the aero position while only coming out for climbing and corners. All the best for you and Reece in your next race season. I'll be watching and cheering you both.

    Fantastic Come back Lucy. I am so happy for you. Years ago I had a fractured femur After 3 pens put in they said I should never run. After a year I decided they were wrong so I kept running. I'm 64 years old running a 1/2 marathons and cycling It keeps me young. Thank you for taking us on your adventure. I must say it's hard to pick a piece of your kit that I don't absolutely love. But that helmet is sweet. Keep doing what you're doing. You are such an inspiration. And love the puppy too.

    Congratulations on the comeback Lucy! Loved the huge cheer the crowd gave you when your name was announced at the start line, and the smile and wave you gave showed just how pleased you were to be back racing! Favourite bit of aero kit is the new style aerobars. After the race I stood in transition for about 5 minutes looking at your bike!! The new moulded aerobars look amazing (and comfortable) and I definitely laughed (and took a photo to share with mates) when I saw the wahoo was on auto pause at 1:58:26 - a fair bit quicker than my time! Given how tough that headwind was back into town, the old saying of #aeroiseverything was completely true in Slovakia! 🇸🇰

  • @Juliedellacasa
    @Juliedellacasa 2 года назад +2

    The most stunning piece, besides the hole kit, is definitely the design and structure of the wheels! Only sat on the bike once in a store and can only dream of owning one. Would be even more special if it came from you. :)
    Lots of love and my deepest congratulations for your fantastic victory. You deserve it so much!

    Your videos are inspiring as always! I broke my arm on a training ride a couple months back, and I struggled to get back to form-injuries take such a mental toll, too. Watching you come back strong is keeping me focused on my first 70.3 next month!
    My favorite piece of aero kit is surprisingly simple: a top tube stem bag. I neglected my nutrition early on and paid for it at the end of rides. Now with the stem bag, I have a constant (aero) reminder to keep fueling.
    Thanks again for all your example, your advice, and excited to see you cross the line at Kona!

I had a blood clot 5 years back & didn't know if I would be able to race/train. Now my next race is the World Champs in St. George. Always inspiring to see what people go through to get healthy after a setback. We're really all in it together.

    Congrats on the perfect comeback from the last 11 month of not racing and beeing injured! Truely inspirational. I think my favorite aero piece is the suite as the shoulders and legs create the most drag. Keep up the nice videos :)

    I woke up in the wee hours of the morning New York City time to watch the ITU Long Distance Championship race live to see the come back in real time. I got chills watching you come down the finish chute and got chills once again watching this video. So excited for you that you’re back and managed the injury so well with the support of Reece and your team!!
    My favorite piece of aero kit would have to be aero bars - they were the first thing I added to my first ever road bike to work onto more serious racing and they really made the biggest difference for arm/wrist pressure/comfort but also my positioning.
    You are a huge inspiration to me and I can’t wait to follow along for your next race!!

    Welcome back champ! As for the giveaway, my favorite is the trisuit. So much underestimated and thus so much affecting the total aero performance on the bike but also on the other two disciplines.

    Lucy, it was awesome to see you back racing again, and winning too. A great result off a difficult journey.
    My favourite piece of aero kit has to be my somewhat old now, S Works Venge. From the seriously aero position, flat-bladed bar and ergo-shaped drop as well as everything being integrated without cables. Most of all, it super fast. I am not fussed that its seen a few birthdays, its still one of the nicest aero bikes around - even today.

    Crying tears of happy joy on the trainer between intervals 😭 so emotional watching you come back, I resonate from being off myself having foot surgery last year, in a cast, cycling with one leg and picking up another hobby - legos😂😂 Love seeing my favorite athlete prosper once again, knowing you are being extra cautious and soaking everything in and not taking one moment for granted. Hope to watch you dominate at st George again. Oh and my favorite piece of aero would have to be my aero race kit. Nothing like a skin tight suit to make you feel super speedy💨

    Wow, Lucy, so impressed. I had no idea you had recovered so much. I really thought you would be sitting at home, watching the Collins Cup, bummed you couldn't be a part of it. Here you are racing long course Worlds in the Collins Cup area. Great job.

    Well done Lucy, great comeback!!
    My favourite piece of aero are probably the TT extentions, i love how you can customice them to get even more aero and how you can also use them for nutrition, as a build in drink system.

    Having had a hip injury which ended my gymnastics career I know how hard and scary it can be getting back in sports. In the end it got me into swim and eventually triathlons so I guess everything happens for a reason. Congrats for all the hard work and effort u put in!!!
    Gotta say I love a aero helmet although a disk wheel does look so cool.

    Awesome job Lucy!! This was so cool to watch. It’s hard to chose only one but I would say the best piece of aero equipment would have to be between the bars and helmet! I can’t chose one :) Excited to see you thrive this next year

    Thanks Lucy, loved following your very vulnerable and honest journey back to fitness, it has been a real honour to follow you and wonderful to see you winning your first race backa dn the emotion that rose from within you. Thanks so much from your no1 fan living in Peru.

    It’s so great to see you back Lucy! As a beginner triathlete I have been following your journey and you are such an inspiration. My favorite piece of aero equipment would be the drink bottle. I’m learning how important nutrition and hydration are to training and a race. Not having it dialed in can make or break a race and the systems available out there today help to keep us in aero without compromising valuable hydration. Keep up the great work Lucy!

    Hi Lucy, I am 17 years old and, I suffered the same injury as you, in the same week! Twins :) It has been really inspiring and motivating to watch your channel while I've also been recovering. I love how you shared with us your journey at red bull and how you started to incorporate biking and swimming. I am a runner so I don't usually bike and swim however, cross training has been my best friend. I just use my brothers mountain bike but road bikes are awesome, I use one at my gym. My favourite product is the kickr axis so I can ride from home at any time of the day. I also purchased the turbo connect display from specialised so I could track my rides additional to my watch. Congratulations on your race! Can't wait to see you smash it throughout the second half of this year. This injury has definitely been a learning curve but I will definitely be cross training even when I'm back to peak running.

    The best piece of aero is the skinsuit. Fancy textiles and wavy fabrics have taking the possibilities to new levels!

    So amazing to see your comeback!! Congratulations!! My favourite piece of aero equipment are the aero bars - not only do they provide the aero advantage (and you get to look really cool), but with lingering wrist issues from a car vs me crash years ago, I find it way more comfortable to ride in aero!
