    Did you know how they came up with Cat 4 to Cat 1 climbs? A Citroën 2CV was the benchmark for a climb. For a Cat 4, the 2CV was able to climb using 4th gear, Cat 3 third gear and so on. Hors category was steeper than a 2CV was able to climb!
    BTW, it maybe the camera angle, but I reckon you could reduce your handlebar width by 2cm for more 'aero'!! Ot looks like your shoulders are narrower than your current bars.

      Is that true? That's actually hilarious if so! I knew the categorization of the climbs was arbitrary but this would be fun explanation!
      As for the bars, I think it is the angle, I've got pretty wide shoulders and the bars are 400mm anyway. Not that any aero gains are that important for my speed. :D

      Ye, the longer videos tend to be more popular according to statistics, so I mainly focus on those. But I am happy that I released something that you can enjoy!

    Do you record sound with the DJI Mic connected to your Insta360 camera?

    • @RoadtoA
      @RoadtoA  Месяц назад

      I don't connect it to the camera, the sound quality is abyssmal. I record it into mic's internal memory and sync it with the footage afterwards.

    What a lovely route, how did that compare on Strava to Pogacar?

    • @RoadtoA
      @RoadtoA  Месяц назад

      It was about twice as long (80 minutes vs 40) but to be fair I didn't go to my max and occassionally stopped to take pictures etc.
      It might have been the only time I was there (though I hope not) so I wanted to enjoy the atmosphere and the surroundings.
