Great work this year Nate! Motivating for us who are also in the cat 4's.

[@kevrev7]

You went from Cat 5 to Cat 2 in one year?

[@TrainerRoad]

Yep! Nate really got after it this past year :)

[@MorganBrown]

those cones!

[@CamsJungleAquaria]

I’ve heard attack when it’s fast but in this video I hear attack when it’s slow. To be honest it all seems useless unless you’re a stud who can stay away the whole timr

[@nigelkoh475]

like your video!

[@TrainerRoad]

Thanks for watching :)

[@nigelkoh475]

Soon, i will train myself to be like you all

[@BenAmoz]

[@stug45]

@cat3memes lost a member

[@mrbrg]

Is Nate throwing out breaks to see if he gets the right mix of riders to work together? If it fans out and you attack, you're waiting to see who comes along or playing head games?

[@TrainerRoad]

Trey Rozelle I want someone to come with me -Nate

[@liamscotchmer7668]

Wait, so can you explain the point of attacking when everyone else is coasting?

[@barbaroacosta5335]

Easy to open up a gap. No one is pushing watts, so it's easier to open up the gap without pushing ourself too much.

[@MrK2ngijal]
