    The pocket burrito is a great tip, now I don’t have to get of the sofa half way through the movie.

    Never tried the pocket burrito! In my ultra running days, I used to puree cooked chicken, liver and mashed potatoes and put it in a squeeze tube... Didn't see too many others doing that one 😂

    Ben, thanks for all your work on making videos for beginners. Keep it up! PS Foco Fondo was amazing and your recap video helped me tremendously. Best from Fort Collins.

      Cheers, Chris. Glad you enjoyed FoCo and benefited from the video. It was a hot one, eh? Man, I sure appreciated getting blasted with the hose in the oasis. Just talked to a friend who laid down in a river for a while towards the end.

      The leaders passed me with about 1 mile to go. I was doing the 100 mile and they finished 200 miles in 1 hour longer than I did 100. They passed me on Highland Hill and it was very cool hearing all the watts going through those carbon wheels.

    My 16yr old brother did the frozen pocket borrito trick. You know, to meet the challenges a teenager faces on any typical day.

    Another nice segment from you - the content of your segments are always interesting. I’ve got a few camera tips for you, as I can tell your relatively new to the process. Rule of Thirds - read up on that. Basically, give the talking-head some space in the direction they’re looking. If you’re using a tripod, alternate which side you stand on (and stand reasonably close to the lens) - that way you can bump the soundbites together without it looking like a “jump-cut.” The perfect backdrop for a portrait (interview) is sun BEHIND the subject, with a dark background. Ask if your subject if he/she is willing to remove their sunglasses - better connection when you can see the subject’s eyes. Consider interviewing someone in two different locations - that way you can intercut the interview and keep it moving visually. Buy a cheap, collapsible reflector and a light stand to mount it on. Lastly, when setting up an interview, start with the background first. Compose a nicely balanced shot, then place your subject into it. Keep up the good work, Ben, and see you on the road one of these days…!!

    500 watts for 20 minutes is Ganna level. That’s nuts!

    I think I will try tire inserts with my new carbon wheels. My alu wheels have visible hits from few strikes. Do you run inserts Ben?

    Has anyone told you that the speaking cadence and pausing you use in these videos is distracting to the listener? Just feedback from someone who really likes the content

      Pausing I understand. Cadence, you mean I talk too slow?

      @@TheRidewithBenDelaneyMy perception is that you talk slowly, but it comes across thoughtfulness and care in choosing your words. I attribute this to your journalism background - your spoken words are just about ready for publication, rather than being more conversational (and imprecise.)
