Hi GCN. I am a 12 year old cyclist from Australia and this video inspired me to do my own 12 hour indoor cycling challenge. I did 330 kms in 12 hours averaging about 28 km/h.
@@cycling2732 dont do it. At 12yo just ride for fun and 40km at that is already a lot. You should Ask your doctor next time you see him. If you want to be in perfect control of the bike later, you can start doing exercices like making you a little circuit putting stuff on the ground and going around them/picking them up
GCN italy: you shouldn't ride trainers for more than one hour, actually, it would be better to make 30mins focused sessions GCN: let's do 24 hours on a trainer!
@Deepboy666 I guess chances of catching the virus are much much higher in Italy than somewhere in the middle of nowhere in the UK. Also, I live 40km away from Germany's first epicenter and yet there are 0 cases in my village and less than 50 cases in the next bigger city and since the virus is not airborne I guess you really have to be in contact with a person having it in order to contract it. I'm glad I stopped working on time (went on holidays on March 1) otherwise I would have 100% gotten it.
I've never known a man with such little respect for his scrotum. Even those circus acts that lift stuff with their swingers wince at this madman. Well done, Hank!
Hank is so game, I love his attitude. We do love to see him suffer but it’s because we’re willing him to make it through and come out the other side celebrating. Amazing achievement brother!
Watching this my brain went straight to The Ramones,: “Twenty-twenty-twenty-four hours to go, I wanna be Sedated, Nothing to do, Nowhere to go, I wanna be sedated”. Fantastic work Hank, particularly loved the Neighbour-Cam Broom Wagon.
Just watched this, been looking forward since this was mentioned on GCN show. So much respect, people think I'm nuts doing more than 6 hours on a bike often. However I struggle to get to 2 hours on Zwift. The mental toughness alone is astounding. Inspirational. Sleep for a week dude, you deserve it. Awesome GCN vids. Between this and the other GCN challenges you step up to - you have my respect.
Sam Leitch that’s bc the trainers have constant resistance while riding outside on your bike doesn’t. Unless you’re climbing uphill for 24 hours you’re not going to replicate the resistance.
Hours outside, free with the wind vs inside on the torture rack. I can't stand it. I've actually cancelled my Zwift because it was so depressing. Now I just use simple (non-game) training apps to get my workout in. If it's cold and I want to ride, then I'm bundling up and riding, even in the snow. This is so crazy. I hope he doesn't keep doing this stuff too often, because he'll crack eventually.
24h on a trainer must be absolute torture. 6 hours has been the longest i've done in zwift (prl full) and at the end of it my derriere was totally wrecked. Might be the static position versus riding outdoors. Hats off to you, Hank. What a legend.
Amazing effort Hank!! It's incredible what we can accomplish if we commit our minds and body to the challenge! Thanks for suffering for us all and sharing your journey to the unknown with us.
Hank man. This was so good. This is one of the best videos since Ollie's hour records. I love these challenges. And I low how in-depth you got the prep , during and post ride! Well done man. Hope your nice and recovered now. And I've got my fingers crossed for some more long distance content from you in the future. A summer 24 hour ride is a must! Bet you can smash it past Scotland when it's not raining. Or how about how far south you can ride from your house 🤣
Absolute legend I found 3 and a half hours he'd on the trainer let alone 24 hours. Keep inspiring us during this tough time. We'll done hank enjoy the rest.
Fantastic and ridiculous! Bravo for sticking it out and seeing it through. 🎩👍 For anyone inspired, I heartily recommend the Le Mans 24H Velo event for letting you try this outdoors and in the best possible riding conditions. Have at it!
I've participated in more than half a dozen 24-hour mountain bike relay races (24 Hours of Adrenaline, etc.), but at least we had riding shifts spread out over 5 riders, so it was enough time to eat a proper meal and take a short catnap until you were on deck to race your next lap. Still pretty tough though. This was way more brutal! Kudos on completing it with the distance and NO SLEEP!!!
Well done Hank, an epic challenge nailed. My anti boredom trick for long zwift sessions is audio books; if you are engaged enough by the story then the minutes don't matter. I also have a few minutes (3/4) off the bike every 90 minutes to stretch and move my body about. If I was trying for 24 hours then I would get off for 3 minutes every hour and start from the beginning when you are fresh, however my dodgy knees wouldn't take 24 hours even if the rest of me could (and it probably can't).
I'm so proud of Hank! Mental fortitude and perseverance; physically he can do it but there would have been so many demons telling him to quit throughout - then to push on the extra 50 minutes was pure class man... mammoth effort chap! 🙌
Hank your capacity to cope with a challenge is immense! So impressed.. sorry I couldn't join you.. nice pizzas! Great effort! Sleep well mate.. 👊🏻✊🏻👍🏻🚴
Bravo. I think the longest Zwift ride I've done was a couple of hours. Maybe some day when I'm exceptionally bored I'll try for more than a few hours. Glad to see you had a group pacing you on your ride - that was nice! Congratulations again!
Your dedication is fantastic! Besides the obvious differences, for me when riding indoors you hear the constant siren call of the always nearby couch, bed, etc whereas on most outdoor rides that option doesn't exist and you are forced to press on. Well done young man!
Check out Michael Knudsen’s event next week trying to break the world record on 24h indoor riding by reaching 1000km+ with an average of over 41,7 km/h. It is the 11-12 of april on zwift 💪. Nice riding Hank 👍👍🤯
that's absolutely insane - I can't begin to imagine how brutal that was - physically its super tough but mentally its another level. 4 hour ride outside is nice weekend ride - 4 hours on Zwift is pain cave...so 24 hours! omg... chapeau
That was epic Hank. You gave us tons of motivating vibes, all of us staying home, loving cycling and especially keep on pedaling in every way. 🙏 Fancy the way you chanced your headphones to smaller more comfier 🤗 and the tips and support you've recieved (your neighbor rocks), showing we are together in this.
600+ Km in 24 hours. EPIC. Well done, Sir. So, now what? The Paris-Brest-Paris? 1200 Km. Record is 42 hours 26 minutes. Next one is 2023. Got 3 years to train.
In order to get in one must prove that one can ride 300k and 600k I think and within a set period of time from the event. I think Hank was to early for this to matter in registering :-(
I was going to give thumbs up as this required an immense amount of mental toughness...and then whoop has been mentioned at the very end and it totally killed it for me.
I think Mark B. had the best advice. start steady and stay steady. 24 hours is a long ass time, however I will be doing some of those efforts in the future for a hopeful 2021TABR effort.
soooo happy to watch this, missing the cycling season so bad!!! (knew George when he was a junior in NYC and sponsored by Toga, and cried in the car on the way to work Sunday afternoon (opera matinee in NYC) when Lemond won the Tour first time. So glad we have access to so much old footage and enjoying the commentary!! Lance, black socks were always a better look for you, lololol
Great work. Next year you should have a team and take to Norway for Den Store Styrkeprøven. From Trondheim to Oslo. 540 km. I would love to see you do that. If you keep the same average speed as Hank did here then you should be able to do a respectable time. Record at the moment is 13h 34min 29sec. Hank you are a legend. Great video. Thanks for the entertainment.
@@XX-is7ps yes i know. But i still think it would be fun to see them put together a team og GCN representers and give it a go. The record was set by a team of 22 from the same club. So they can put it all of the representers if they want. From US, Italy, Spain, Germany and UK. I think they would det a desenct time. Not a record but a good time.
Hank, this is an incredible feet!!! Congratulations, you can be proud of yourself. The mental aspect must be insane. Keep up the great content, especially during this lockdown period 💪
Topman Hank!! You well up there with the endurance greats now..... I can envisage a Race Across America for you..... think other GCN Members need to step up and show there metal/worth now... Ollie and Manon are excused!!!
I agree, it'd be fun if GCN fielded a RAAM team and Si could let his hair get crazy and drive the Chevy van. And I'd cheer for them as the route is, literally, a quarter-mile from my apartment in Central Pennsylvania. But I wouldn't expect them to notice me as this is near the end and by the time the competitors get here, they are pretty much toast. Like a few years ago, Christoph didn't even take his eyes off the road when I stepped off the curb with cheers and applause outside the local McDonald's on Route 16. He probably thought, man, I don't have any time for that kook. And I was okay with it, he was in the zone and soon another victory would be his. And that whole RAAM deal is amazing, tho' I'd prefer that each day be treated as a personal stage, each start at the same time in the morn and close with the same bedroll time. I'm not a fan of riding on public roads without sleep.
Hank this is an incredible effort what a thing to do....I use zwift all the time and can only last 1hr 20mins before my backside is in utter tatters...I genuinely cant even imagine how anyone can zwift for over 2 hours let alone 24...chapeau son chapeau...
GCN and it’s presenters have handled this transition so well, it’s actually impressive to see them transition so smoothly. I actually think the content has become more relatable than before
Could you make it through a 24 hour indoor bike ride? Let us know in the comments! 👇
No, everything above 90 min is real pain.
I'd rather ride outside than inside. Indoor is my nightmare 😵
Genuinely don't think I could manage more than 3 hours tbh. Fair play 👏🏼 bonkers
What was your family's reaction when you told them 😂
Nope 🤷♂️
Get that long distance German companion some merch! He deserves it at the least!
That's exactly what i thought.
You mean that F.G. dude?
Exactly
People need to know how insane this actually is
And dumb.
@@christopherbv shut up man
@@christopherbv You seem smart. And weak.
@@christopherbv no, it's called dedication and strength. Learn it
Hi GCN.

That's amazing, Tom! Awesome work.
Superb performance!! But really I wouldn't advice you do to such intense work at your age, you will regret it very much at 20 years old
I'm a 12 year old cyclist from nz, but haven't done that challenge

Wow! I'm 1 year older but my highest km is 80. That is amazing well done
Still not finished watching yet but just want to shout out to F.J from Germany for the Herculean effort he has put in. Champion.
GCN italy: you shouldn't ride trainers for more than one hour, actually, it would be better to make 30mins focused sessions

Hi, why doing more than one hour is not good experience?

ahahah la prima cosa che ho pensato :)
Deepboy666 Chicken!
(Not really. )
Deepboy666 i do about 40 min but i dont think ill get the virus at home
So many Dinosaurs in Watopia: Mylegsasaur, mybumisaur, neesasaur. The most impressive is the Hankisaur.Kudos to you, that was tough.
Megasoreass also
Best comment
Cam Jeffers: does virtual Everest
Hank: Hold my beer
Bas Bakker yeah Bas agreed
hank didn't everest tho 21:58 both super impressive and similarly painful
It’s too bad that the official Everesting website doesn’t recognize virtual rides. But I can understand why. Too easy to cheat the data.
I noticed he was in the booze aisle at Tesco to pick up the Red Bull. I did wonder if he grabbed a few beers at the same time...
Did he use a bot?
2019: Don’t ride your trainer for more than an hour.
2020: How many hours straight can I crush my testicles?
Bloody brilliant stuff Hank. And fair play for digging out that extra for the full 24hrs on bike.
Chapeau
I've never known a man with such little respect for his scrotum. Even those circus acts that lift stuff with their swingers wince at this madman.
Well done, Hank!
What a hero, fuelled by pizza! You didn't even really complain about anything, not much apart from saying how you felt, what a great guy.
Major kudos to the dad being there the whole time.
It's Dad's house, he lives there. In fact, it would have been far more unusual for him to be gone the entire time...
Hank the tank is my favorite presenter😁😁He is so committed and never gives up!!! Make a jersey that says hank the tank And i will 100% buy it
Same
Hank is so game, I love his attitude. We do love to see him suffer but it’s because we’re willing him to make it through and come out the other side celebrating. Amazing achievement brother!
Hank is just a torture test for GCN at this point
Watching this my brain went straight to The Ramones,: “Twenty-twenty-twenty-four hours to go, I wanna be Sedated, Nothing to do, Nowhere to go, I wanna be sedated”. Fantastic work Hank, particularly loved the Neighbour-Cam Broom Wagon.
The other presenters talk a good game. Hank is the real deal. Great job Hank.
Hank the Tank strikes again
Kezlarr I really admire him for his stupid stubbornness/ heroic determination. Can’t decide which it is, but definitely a big Chapeau.
3:40 - Wow.... shops with food in them.
Very retro !!
Those were the days with toilet paper and stuff.
Just watched this, been looking forward since this was mentioned on GCN show.

@@brandonclark8736 that is just you.... people in general like it. And can do it in moderation. Seek help.
Imagine, 23 hours in and the power goes out... 😮 Incredible effort.
when i was 14 earlier this year i did a 24hr zwift ride, 683km, at 4am my power cut out for 5 minutes but luckily didnt lose my ride
Epic. Can’t believe you managed that. My max indoor is 45mins........Hank, you’re a legend.
Hank needs a raise. Two 24 hour rides in 4 months all for our entertainment. What a legend!
You would have gotten further with an aero bike in your living room...
And a full suspension mtb would help soak up the bumps and pot holes eh!
well, had he ridden through the sands all the time, he would have made way more kilometers... but maybe that was to keep his sanity
JA MOIN?
DU hier?
Radfahrer?
I hate to break it to you but exercise bikes don't move! Ok I had to be that guy! LOL
with tubeless setup too.
Certainly the toughest GCN presenter! Your will amazes me, congratulations Hank! :D
I just did my first century today and was riding for 6h 35m and I'm pretty achy...kudos to you, Hank! That is a massive physical accomplishment!
4.28 look the hole in the seat, looks like a fork hole 😳. Great effort as usual 👍
I did 11.5 hours last weekend and I can only imagine how tough twice the time must be. Respect!
Dino_TM Insane. Even on the road if I’m going slow my nether regions start to complain fairly quickly.
24h on a trainer must be absolute torture. 6 hours has been the longest i've done in zwift (prl full) and at the end of it my derriere was totally wrecked. Might be the static position versus riding outdoors. Hats off to you, Hank. What a legend.
Hank is the Posh Spice in GCN. Love this dude.
Amazing effort Hank!! It's incredible what we can accomplish if we commit our minds and body to the challenge! Thanks for suffering for us all and sharing your journey to the unknown with us.
Kudos! I was more concerned about a power or internet outage on hour 22, than on you not finishing the challenge. Absolute legend!
Why.? He doesn’t live in third world?
Damn. Hank's mental fortitude is unmatched! Thank you for the inspirational content!
Hank, you are amazing! Unbelievable effort, congrats.
But it’s just insane to do this without a rockaplate.
Wow that was incredible.. massive endurance test, not to mention mentally how tough that had to be. Hank you are a beast💪 huge well done👏👏
Very impressed Hank (and highly envious of your "pain cave"..)
Hank man. This was so good. This is one of the best videos since Ollie's hour records. I love these challenges. And I low how in-depth you got the prep , during and post ride! Well done man.

AMAZING!! What a tough challenge. Would love to have seen your Whoop data! Great job James!!
Very impressive!!!! I struggle with 2 hour indoor ride. Did a century once on a spin bike for charity. You are the MASTER OF PAIN
Zwift needs to give you a special achievement for that herculean effort of sheer madness. Amazing job!
Awesome. But can't believe you didn't raise your stem a bit for that!

Hey good luck man
why is it gcn so love to torture Hank....and yet we find it so amusing to watch him being torture...
Hank really is a good sport about these challenges.
Because he's posh. Class resentment
The second part of your comment explains the first part.
