@@tiemeb8233 thank you legend! Glad you enjoy them 🙌🏻🫶🏻

@@artem1987-i5s Thanks legend! I use a DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro, I recently bought this as I was using a old DJI Action 2. The action 5 is amazing, no complaints from me, audio and image quality are levels above!

@@C.L.W.J it’s a must hahaha 😂

@@banksiaspinulosa7442 Sick!! Definitely gotta hit this up. I’d just say be careful going through the tunnel I go through solo, Sydney drivers hate us in it 😂 Eastern beaches is pretty awesome too, about 35ks but you ride all along the coast line, see the harbour bridge from the top of heartbreak hill, can checkout the gap, pass by bondi too 👍🏻 another favourite of mine for a longer ride is Church Point from the city. Where are you staying?

Ill be staying in bondi for the weekend. Thank you kindly for the tips. Let the research begin!

@ no problem mate! Very good spot to stay, can get to most places from there 👍🏻👍🏻

@@lincolntrevett9114 He is super strong, little diesel engine we say 😂 Heard he did a decent time up Mt Mee… thanks Lincoln! Glad you liked it mate 👍🏻

@@marcbryant8482 Thanks Marc, it was good fun! Back in Sunny coast today, so hopefully see you on some Moo Cru rides. Thought the data on the side makes things a little more interesting, my HR never really gets ‘that’ high I guess. Thanks for watching mate! 👍🏻

@@65Lynchy haha isn’t that what a vlog is? 🤷‍♂️

Haha! Never seen one before?

@ItsMaxMann never noticed don't think. Also I don't race or ride in large bunches.

@@shawnsmith7009 done it once up that hill and that was enough for me Shawn 😂 you are more than welcome to tho 🙌🏻

@@PhilPerd Are you saying to avoid the tunnel? I’ve always ridden this way, definitely not the safest but in holiday period the roads aren’t too busy so it’s okay 🤷‍♂️

It is a well known Sydney brand as that’s where they are from originally, so quite commonly seen. How is the cycling in Denmark!? Must go visit 👌🏻

@@ItsMaxMann It's good fun here, the level is just insane even for the lower ranks. Also with weekly infamous group rides/race. Brutal flight tho, think you're looking at around 16 hours

@ haha yeh the levels in different places are wild, you think someone’s strong then you go to Europe 😂 definitely a brutal flight! May be even longer 😴😴

@@robl5182 He’s a secret hitter, must be the sugar water tactic

Thanks for the hot tip mate, do they go under the helmeT? I honestly think the main problem is my helmet lining needs a replacement ASAP! It doesn't absorb anymore haha

@@ItsMaxMann Yeah. Thin and stretchy. I think helmet lining only provides some cushioning, they're not really made to absorb sweat.

@ the more you know hey! I sweat a lot so could be something to look into to get it out of my eyes 😂

My vote is a Castelli Headband, very low profile keeps the drips out of your glasses by wicking the sweat so it can evaporate.

@ My glasses are hardly worn 😂😂 I want new ones… maybe then I’ll complain about the drips in my glasses instead of my eyes 🤣

Andre couldn't pull through Needed big Willy!

better early than late right! everyone else was late!

And that’s when you tell them “nice of you to show up. I’ve been here for ages”!!! 😝 Good video as always Max👍

Someone else on a motorbike so I can sit on their wheel for KOMs

I use a platform called Telemetry Overlay, you upload your Garmin/Wahoo activity into it. The overlay I am using I custom made in their program :)

Man only a few weeks into cycling too, I was really not feeling it… thoughts of getting off the bike did come to mind 😂😂

mate its the worst isn't it... artillery hurts and hurts a lot haha!

You just don't get the same respite after the climbs as the other way around.

@@maccamccarthy The other way is much easier on the legs, I agree

Man… I did it reverse the other day with a SSE headwind. I’m heavy and no climber and yeah there’s some pain from those big long false flats by the time you get to Garie

@@ayjay05 hahaha the false flats really get you hey, you are like why am I putting out 300W and going 18kph 😂😂

Thank you mate, glad you enjoyed it. I've had a few people comment on the 'door zone' you kinda gotta ride the door zone when you are solo and its single laned with no bike lane, just be weary of what is ahead... trust me I worry myself! That sucks mate, glad you are still riding tho.

Thanks Chuck! Love that you enjoyed the video 🙂

haha believe it or not, there were a few tradies waiting for them to open 🤣

haha just a meetup spot, nothing special! The boys will forgive me. RNP is great, you are brave descending in the wet tho! I would've snoozed the alarm at the smallest droplet of water 🤣I haven't done Garie beach climb, on the list tho.

@@JulAlxAU hahaha thanks Julian! Let’s just say reco rides aren’t really in the program 😂 it always ends up getting spicy someway or another

@@ElrocStone Phonk is the only way! Great way to start your week off 😂 Not off to TDU unfortunately, back up to QLD tomorrow though 👍🏻

@@samueloberg1192 Thanks mate, glad you liked it! I weigh 89kg and my ftp is 338 W, I think it’s probably high 3s to low 4s w/kg on this ride 🫠

@ItsMaxMann Nice, impressive that you can hold on in these groups on hilly(?) routes. Huge anaerobic power? Lets see some power testing in the future. Lets get to 4 w/kg, im basically there in terms of a 20 min x 0.95 but around 10-15 watts below on 60 min power.

@ I’m pretty useless when it gets hilly man! I can hold good power for 30/40 min efforts but need to work on sprinting and then sustaining high watts again. Nice mate, I think I’m about 4/wkg now but just haven’t done an ftp test in a minute 🫠

Would love to do it mate, haven’t heard of it but it’s now on the bucket list. If I end up being in perth one year on Boxing Day I’ll be sure to join in on the fun. I don’t doubt that lots of pros would be there owing to NATS 2 weeks after 👍🏻👍🏻

@@johnsoncheung7577 cleaning the pulleys, they often get heaps of gunk, wax and dirt stuck around them. If you’ve never cleaned them then you should definitely be doing it 👍🏻👍🏻

@@ItsMaxMann oh wow I never knew. Is that a brush, or some type of specialized tool? will probably look to get something similar myself

@@ItsMaxMann do you have a link to the tool?

@@johnsoncheung7577 I honestly just use a small flat head screwdriver, spin the pulley wheel whilst running it along the path of the wheel. It should pickup all the gunk 👍🏻

@@banksiaspinulosa7442 mate absolutely love that! That is unreal, I’m glad you are enjoying them mate! I’m still learning myself haha, it’s an art form! 😂

@@billybrentz Tokyo drifting 😂🤣

@@manlikesiah hey mate helmet is a MET Vinci, not too expensive about $150 AUD 👍🏻

@ Thanks bro

Definitely a sick ride! Probably should’ve done that so I know what’s coming up, when turns are etc like you mention. Will do this in the future to avoid getting dropped, thanks for the hot tip mate 👌🏻👍🏻

@@shaunb93291 Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it. Henk wasn’t rolling turns in this video but he was there just sitting further back, he’s riding a yellow Factor Ostro. If you have a look at my previous video of this ride you’ll see a bit of footage of him. He’s quite well known but well before my time 😂😂

@@robertgale8694 Thanks Robert! Glad you enjoyed it mate 👍🏻👌🏻

@@Jake-kn4mv Love comments like this mate, means the world that you are enjoying them and enjoying the journey. Thanks for the kind words mate 👍🏻👍🏻

@@SteveBosch-x4b Thanks Steve! What bike were you riding? It does get more and more spicy 😂

@@ItsMaxMann I was riding with you from Mooloolaba to just after the Caloundra roundabout, big tall guy on the ancient BMC 😜. Hopefully catch you next time you are up here riding 👍

@ haha ancient BMC! I’ll keep an eye out next time I’m up then. Back in a weeks time funnily enough 😂

@@saracen888 54/40 has been great! It’s definitely not ideal for hills, however it’s been over a year riding with it now and has forced me to get used to it… looking at a 52/36 for Peaks tho 🙌🏻👍🏻

@ nice one. The 34 on the back is a must then? All the best at peaks, you can’t go wrong with 52/36

@ if I could get a 36 at the back I would, for lighter people it may be okay but I struggle up hills. Thank you 🙌🏻🙌🏻

@@LeeWright Thanks Lee, great to hear that! Haha not that strong but getting there 👌🏻

Thanks mate glad you liked it! Yeh always cautious of cars but the roads were quite quiet on this ride so was okay. Damn man you are very lucky you didn’t come down! 😕

Thank you very much! Glad you liked it 👌🏻

@@marc_aussie hey mate thanks for that, the voiceover is actually turned up 6.5 decibels for that exact reason, if I was to match the voiceover and the music you’d either have my voice breaking your ears or very quiet music unfortunately. I tried to normalise out the sound through the video but it doesn’t sound great 🤷‍♂️

@@ItsMaxMann Ok, I also have Stable Volume turned on in TH-cam settings, which helped a bit but still big jump.

@ interesting… I don’t use stable volume on my end and it sounds fine with and without headphones. What are you using?

@@ItsMaxManniPhone speakers and speakers on a desktop PC

@ yeh strange, it sounds pretty even on my iPhone speakers around 70% max volume, my desktop/laptop is just shocking audio quality in general 😂 unsure what to do cause it levels it all out then you have super quiet patches

@@kookiboy Hello from Sydney! So cool you are seeing this from France. We can trade weather, I enjoy the cold 😂

​@@ItsMaxMann I live right in the center of france (Loire Valley) in a very little city called 'Aubigny-sur-Nère'. Beautiful place, shit loads of forest and hills. Stunning place to ride. Keep up those good vids. Peace.

@ That’s awesome, I’d love to go ride in France, would be such a good experience! Glad you are liking the videos! Thank you for the support 🙌🏻

@@shawnsmith7009 Thanks for commenting again Sean! Glad you enjoyed this one too 🙌🏻

@@MilloPower4556 I think we spoke briefly after, keep riding man you’ll get to hang on eventually… I still get dropped when hills are involved 🤣 thanks mate, glad you are loving it 🙌🏻

@@marcbryant8482 thanks Marc, great chatting with you as well… you get a little feature on the right hand side haha. Usually okay on flat, chuck any hills in there and I won’t do as well 😂

@@ItsMaxMann I did spot that and brought a smile, I won't lie ;-) you're definitely going well on the flat fast stuff and hills are a matter of doing more of them. Montville mate

@@Dustydayzz hey mate, would you want a 3s average Watts meter or do you mean average watts across the ride? 👍🏻

@@ItsMaxMann the whole ride... if its alright with you

@@Dustydayzz I think it was about 285-300 average across the segment, I’ll I’ll try out average in my overlay moving forward 👍🏻👍🏻

@ItsMaxMann you got some legs 🦵 fam. Looking forward to more vids.im a new-ish sub but I'm loving your vibe so... nice one!

@@batbawls hahaha I was reading that and like this sounds very familiar! Hey at least you’ve found something to keep you sane through the cold, hopefully it warms up soon enough… and we complain about 10 degrees here 🤣🤣
