Didn't think I could do a century because of prior knee issues and lack of training, but hey, sometimes our limitations are more in our head than in reality. How are you limiting yourself?
Hey man I live in Vegas too, Summerlin area. We should ride together. I’d say we’re about the same age too. I’ve done 78 miles before, but that was precovid. I want to get into it again. Need someone to ride with. Let me know if you’re interested.
“Be content with what you have.” “The bike isn’t holding me back, I’m holding me back.” These are wonderful words of wisdom, I love it. I’m adopting this as my pedaling mantra.
Amazing video, Dr. Jubbal! Pre-med student here and cycling enthusiast as well! Really cool that you did your first century! Hope you can do another amazing ride in the future. I also once did a long bike ride loop with a friend from SJ --> SF in California. I agree, preparing nutrition and hydration is key! Also having the right tools to keep you going (tire levers, hand pump, patches, extra tubes). One thing my friend and I always reminded each other was that the ride was never about the getting from point A to point B, but it was about the hardships and shenanigans on the way that made it all worthwhile. Your comment about being content with what you have also resonated with me. I currently ride a rat bike as a commuter/gravel bike (refurbished '95 Diamond Back Ascent). And I take this baby everywhere -- trails, singletrack, and paved roads. But yeah, definitely agree with your statement that "if anything, I am holding the bike back". I used to think my bike was too old to take to trails, but with a little more effort each time, I proved to myself that I was wrong to think that. I don't think I'll ever replace this old steel bike. Be safe riding our there, and give those Pinarello Dogma +Di2 owners a run for their money! It's all in the rider, not the bike!
Awesome video, I completely agree on the pressure to upgrade bikes. That’s a good concept also “the bike is not holding me back, I’m holding the bike back.”
My first century I was like your friend - I hit a wall around mile 70 and it just got worse. I was happy to be able to finish. I actually had to cycle more than just 100 miles too as the race was 109 miles and I cycled to and from the race.
I’m not sure if you’ve covered this before, but if possible could you give us advice on how you picked and scheduled your classes for undergraduate and or med school? I’m interested of maximizing my schedule but also being able to manage my time in between class, studying, and personal time. Thank you!
Man you did that video after 100 mile ride? That's even more impressive. 😂 I haven't done century in few year but last time i did it was from south side of Chicago to Wisconsin border and back. We didn't finish cause we git caught in rain but we did ride 140 mile. Full ride was 160 or 170 i think
Just did 120km - 75 miles. I ate after the first hour and then once every 40 minutes. I also had no desire to go fast, and my route was flat. I got off the bike and was not exhausted and I didn't even need a nap. Strava said my relative effort was harder than usual but not crazy, so I think I went about doing distance the best way... slow, easy and lots of eating. Bonus, I made myself RICE CAKES w/ bacon and egg. It was nice to eat midway... other than that I ate sports bars, but always had a different one (variety is crucial as well on the bicycle).... I also finished it off the last 45 minutes with a Red Bull... I think this is the goal... if you can go for an 8 hour hike in the forest, then you can do the same thing on a bicycle, its just when you're hiking you're not burning the same number of calories and can wait to eat, you can't make that mistake on the bicycle, waiting is never a good idea, get eating after the first hour and eat often if you're gonna be on the bike over 2 hours.
What bars did you eat and why did it end up taking 9 hours? I have done 50 miles a few times and want to do a century. I have been riding the same mountain bike for 7 years.
Dr. Jubbal is a day in the life of a Neurosurgeon coming in this channel, I really am looking forward to that and you promised that in your so you want to be a Neurosurgeon.
Great video Doc - thanks for sharing. I just did my first 30 miles today and planning to move towards half century next week. Hoping to get a century by month end. One question I have is, did you take any breaks or was this a non stop 9 hour ride? Cheers
Who cares about the time you did it in? The important part is that it was completed. If you can do it once, you can do it again, and much more easily after you've recognized the flaws of the first run.
Hello Dr kevin sir.. I am the student of 9th standards. I am very scared of Artificial Intelligence because i want to beacome a doctor but nowadays i am listenning that the Artificial Intelligence will remove the doctors in future. Sir Is it true? Please make one video on this topic.
I used to think that till I got a aero bike with 5.6 enve wheels. I rode 2 miles faster at the same power. Then I got a TT bike with 858 Zipp wheel in the front and a disc in the back for an Ironman and I went another 1.2 miles faster...

“The bikes not holding me back, I’m holding me back.” So true and that is a powerful mindset!
Agreed 100%
“Be content with what you have.”

Love it. Keep on riding brother
Very awesome. I started riding last summer and the longest non-stop ride I have had is 45 miles and planning to reach a century by the fall at least!
good luck!
50 km, 80 km, 100 km , 160 km.
Awesome video, I completely agree on the pressure to upgrade bikes. That’s a good concept also “the bike is not holding me back, I’m holding the bike back.”
I enjoy listening to your wisdom and advice from past experiences! Thank You!!!
MCAT this weekend, wish me luck Dr. Jubbal!
You got this
how did you do?
I'm thinking about my century ride, so yr advice re eating and the 70/75 mile wall is helpful. Thanks man, and REALLY WELL DONE!
Oh come on, thats insane already! Gj on the century ride!
Life lessons from Dr. Jubbal!
Not bad time to be honest. Amazing goal. I did 60 last year. 100 is the goal this year
Love the message on being content and your insights. Congrats on the Century!
“That bike is not holding me back. I am holding the bike back.”

Hey, i love your videos kevin.
Keep making such good videos and specially those study tips which really helped me a lot.
Lots of love from India😊😊😊😊
I love listening to your advice! It's really helpful and motivating! :))

Wow that’s beast. 100 was a grind, can’t imagine doing 160-170

What works for me as a bike messenger is eating a heavy meal like a steak and eggs some hot coffee with butter I go all day on that 1 meal
What bars did you eat and why did it end up taking 9 hours? I have done 50 miles a few times and want to do a century. I have been riding the same mountain bike for 7 years.
What kind of mtb? Im planing on doing my first century this weekend. I have a razzo hardtail mtb.
@@elmersararana5445 Commencal AMHT. I finally bought a new bike. Banshee Paradox.
@@elmersararana5445 The century ride will be my GT Grade Carbon
man you are doing it, I love the video!
I was trying to figure out where I knew you from and realized once I saw your name! LOL
Completed today with out proper training 🤦♂️ any tips for recovery feeling so tired
What application do you use in montage?in med schooll...😄😄
Dr. Jubbal is a day in the life of a Neurosurgeon coming in this channel, I really am looking forward to that and you promised that in your so you want to be a Neurosurgeon.
I’m practicing social distancing so it won’t be for some time
It’s like 42/108 degrees in vegas.... how you manage to bike under the sun ?
This was in Salt Lake City. I try not biking when it’s too hot
Great video Doc - thanks for sharing. I just did my first 30 miles today and planning to move towards half century next week. Hoping to get a century by month end. One question I have is, did you take any breaks or was this a non stop 9 hour ride? Cheers
We took breaks, such as the breaks to take the photos on IG 😂
Be careful increasing mileage so quickly. You don’t want to get an injury
@@kevinjubbalmd Thanks Kevin
At what age does a person get the most use out of top shelf cycling equipment?
Friends don’t let friends ride entry level
Eh
commenting for the youtube algorithm
keeping the bike tuned in the gears / bearings cant be a bad thing

There are some nice Chinese carbon frames for much under 1000. Dengfu and xiamen are just some companies that offer these frames
I’d rather just stick with my current bike
@@kevinjubbalmd per expected. Keep it in mind if you so wish to pimp yo ride
I just got a trifox and used the saved money on di2 and deap section rims. Bikes fast. China makes qaulity carbon frames
Dude I’d be fine with a 9-hour century.
Me 2 man. Any time century. Less than 1% of the population could do that
Just finished my first century and no breakfast for me did the job as in most of my rides, just snack along the way and drink plenty of water.
Not everyone weighs 200lbs bud
Only 9 hours...
