Oh, of course you put them on now later in the video. 🤣

@@mikewikstrom3416 Hey Mike, awesome you saw the show and came over to watch some videos! Thanks for watching. Funnily enough, it is super super rare you’ll see me put my glasses on. I bring them on every ride and half the time they don’t leave my head/helmet. It’s kind of a running joke in our group that I always wear them and never use them. That being said if I am descending at speeds I’ll typically use them, I used to use them a lot but feel my vision is better without them and now my eyes have adjusted to the wind. I wouldn’t say I hate them, I don’t think they are the most aesthetic glasses but I personally just don’t use them that much 🤷‍♂️ no idea why. Maybe if I they were smaller framed and had lighter lenses (not clear) I’d use them more. Hope this covers your question…. You’ll pickup on some weird traits watching my content 🤣🤣

@@stevekovacs8635 thanks Steve! See you there mate, thanks for commenting 👍🏻

@@CyclingAlgarvePortugal Thanks mate! Definitely recommend it, lots of fun. I’d love to race in Portugal!

@@high1458 thanks dude! I used to dislike it as a kid but it’s grown on me now 🥳

@@ZenGarage hahaha how small a world is it! Glad one popped up for you mate. Great meeting you at CCACHE the other week! Thanks for subbing. P.S. you are taking me back to my youth with the ZenGarage account, 15 year old Max would be stoked 😂😂

@@Draenyr thank you mate, it’s a tricky course to navigate too so happy with it. Hahaha I only just realised that I added in saussy roll content without noticing 😂😂

@@felixoates Appreciate that Felix! Only grow through trying new things and getting out of your comfort zone. Maybe I’ll see you at Heffron soon 😏

@@nicksyahrilstorror5183 Hey Nicky, on a road bike if you stop pedalling (unless going downhill) you’ll most likely fall back quite far and not be able to keep up. If you are exhausted and stop I guess you are left on your own. I hope this helps! Good luck on finding a road bike, it’s great fun 👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks dude! Hahaha great question, I cannot confirm if every crit race includes a sausage, however this Thursday night Heffron included sausages and beers... well worth the entry fee. The post race asahi had to be the best beer ive ever had 😂

@@ItsMaxMann Sydney CC crits always include a BBQ and drinks for everyone present at no charge (your entry fees is put back into the crit event). Most crits don't have a BBQ....

Thank you mate. How good!! I want to race over Christmas/Jan as I'm back up in Sunshine Coast, might see you at one mate. What's the new club?

@@ItsMaxMann Balmoral Cycling Club, just over the gateway in Brissy. I think they race every saturday, plus the sunshine coast club has a race on NYE too

@ ohh every Saturday, is it on Buncheur? May try tee that up. Won’t be in sunny on NYE back to Sydney for a week then back up 🥲

Here he is! Thanks mate, no wind noises in this one. Glad you noticed the difference 😀 Thanks for watching again.

@@mattkillips177 Glad you enjoyed it. Used a trial version for Telemetry Overlay was a punish but turned out good! Will have to invest in the full version 😏

@@DDai-qd8uk Cheers mate, thanks for watching and commenting 💃

@@Jonbsp Pretty happy with it, may not have caught the break but at least I held solid power in my attempt to 👍🏻 Thanks for watching mate!

Thanks Ben! Appreciate the feedback, may be a good idea to drop down although a lot of people said I’d be too strong for C grade. I did do my research before but as you said experience plays a big part not just strength and power. Thanks for watching mate!

Glover is a Jedi when it comes to crits

@@muchwow6249 I've made all of the mistakes and still do , my jedi strength is making mistakes 🤣🤣 and crashing I'm good at that too

Good vid Max, keep smacking it up with the bunch 🤜🏻🤛🏽

Thanks Sean! Back in the sunny coast 17th December for chrissy, hope to see you out at the Grind 👍🏻

Used a trial account for this haha! May have to invest in the full model. Thanks mate!

All aboard the Panda Express! Need more diversity in my kit 🤣

@@Bodkin_Ye_Pointy that’s exactly it, you just have to focus on the positives and it’ll come with time. I’m back on the road now and feeling good!

@@ChezTessa love that! Awesome you are enjoying my content! What got you into cycling?

@@ItsMaxMann got caught up watching tdf and thought I'd give it a try haha. How long have you been doing it?

@ the TDF bug haha! Love that! Not that long ago mate, dabbled in it for 2 years for triathlon stuff then last September bought a Canyon and loved it since. It’s addictive 🤣

@@ItsMaxMann mate, so addictive. Hope to run into you on the roads someday!

@ Look forward to it mate 👍🏻

@@janvanwezemael8571 great to meet you mate! Hahahaha you can take an excuse out of my book dont worry 🤣

@@ricardordg3443 yeh it was me. Were you racing in C? Haha I figured you technically aren’t meant to cross the double lines etc, the boys said just don’t do it before the cones 🤷‍♂️ thanks mate, definitely had a fun day and will be doing more 👍🏻

@ nah I bounce between a and b. West head is B. Good seeing you at the morning chop today 🤙 keep doing that and you'll be moving up grades quickly. Also learn to roll as a group at a faster pace smoothly.

@ oh very nice mate! What bike do you ride? Funnily I only came to chop to get some footage as I’m making a funny reel 😂 I have heffron tonight need to save the legs. Would be wrecked later if I hung on the whole way. Definitely will help with moving up grades tho

@@JonathanBays Cheers Jonathan. Opposite of a climber over here 😂 only get stronger by pushing yourself though right 🤷‍♂️

@@ItsMaxMann Thats it push harder on the hills get the position right on the turn to be dragged downhill for a while till you unleash your sprint. I am 175cm and was 72kg and used to ride this road with a mate 195 and 95kg and it was hilarious yo yoing off each other. Mates aren't always the best training partners

@@ChrisMillerCycling haha a little bit of banter doesn’t hurt. At least I’m part of the club now 😂 won’t make the same mistake next time and hopefully can secure the win. Nice job on the weekend mate 👍🏻

Thought you'd like this one bro! Cheers for watching as always legend 👌

@ gotta love it. Especially as winter comes on here in Canada and I’m stuck on the trainer.

Thanks buddy! Not sure if I got any draft behind you haha! Glad you had good fun and enjoyed it, very strong for your age mate keep at it. You just want a free draft 🤣

@@darrylnoolan6523 unfortunately I have done some research on them and for the DJI Action 2 it doesn’t really help. I’m in the process of upgrading the camera to one with better wind noise reduction! Pain in the ass sorry mate!

@@julcerin Thanks mate! Good to see you again too, no doubt we will cross paths soon!

@@minhari8040 great question, usually on a road bike you will shift into your small chain ring, my chainrings are 54/40 tooth with and 11-34 casette, however throughout this ride I typically stayed in the big chain ring so the ratio made the tension quite hard through the cranks. I hope that helps!

@@qduong100 thanks bro! Nice to meet you mate, I’ll be back… next time with some strategy 😂

@@joshkwan Thanks Josh 🫶🏻 Yeh it’s interesting, definitely great training for myself and will translate into being stronger however I had to put out some big number at points to stay on up the short climbs 🤷‍♂️

@@Draenyr excuse book has been strung dry mate 😂 none up my sleeve anymore. That’s true mate, not much but what hurts you makes you stronger! Fast and furious fanatic over here, I know the exact moment. “Still a buster” 😂

@@DoneAndDustedCycling haha jacq messaged me the exact same thing 😂 not the camera pull and vlog mid race 🤣 hope to see you soon Bryce!

@@willsiu8396 you can always be my lead out big boy! 💖

@@saurabhrandhawa4494 I totally agree, unfortunately my camera doesn’t sync with VIRB edit so need to spend some $$$ on a overlay product or get a new camera to film the full ride, potentially last option 😂

@@TasmanSmith love to hear that you enjoyed it again bro! How was that? You are up north right? I’m trying to find some rides in Sunshine Coast over jan to race!

@ yeah it was great, at the Girraween track so little hill in it. Next one is on NYE up at the same track, and I think there’s one in January too maybe in the Landsborough track, though not sure 100%. Would be great to see you out and racing though!

@@17cream welcome from Britain mate! Exactly that, the heat got to us around 160-170 ks in 🤣

@@cerealsmok3r736 thanks legend! Healed and back to it. Thanks for sticking around 👍🏻

@@duttyvegan someone else mentioned it was an Audi Quattro! I thought it was an old BMW wagon but think I’m wrong

@@TasmanSmith thanks Tasman! Glad you are loving them. Was an epic ride, DOMS today tho 🤣

@@JoshuaReidBackpacking welcome back bro!

Nice stuff! We just beat the police I think... Heard the road was closed off. Sorry only just saw this comment! Audi is long gone now haha

@@grahames9228 thanks mate! Looking forward to the pain!

@@JulAlxAU haha fast and flat is my usual talent, what can I say I am heavy and tall a bad combo for hills. Thanks mate glad to be back 👍🏻

@@Jonbsp Very big day out but you are right, awesome ride with an awesome crew made it light work!

@@faisal_al_saiful3838 someone will miss it 😂

@@ModerateCyclist we ran into a few others who said the Gorge was closed, we got there before the police and firebrigade. Unsure if it was an accident or not, there were people seated about 20 metres from the car and it looked like theirs. Yep, exactly that need to stop as little as possible and eat as much as possible 😂😂

@ cracking effort in this one by the way. Solid crew.

@@ModerateCyclist Thanks mate, it was a tough slog but we got there!

@@ItsMaxMannengine bay fire by the looks of it. Have seen a lot of these as a firefighter.

@@willsiu8396 Willy boy! Always a win when the big fellas are first up the climb 😂

@@75dlow thanks mate! Scared of what’s to come?

@@muchwow6249 hahah wondered when this would be asked, about 100 ks in I tried to take a wizz in a bush and this bloke in a nearby cottage comes out gets in my face and starts calling me names, told me to put my c**k away and f**k off, said it’s a public place etc etc…it was literally on the waters edge hundreds of metres from homes in a bush 😂 had to hold it in cause I hadn’t even gotten the chance to wizz 😂
