I watched this video at work, and as you started the last sprint after the bump, my hands were in the air. People were looking at me like I was having a seizure! I almost started crying. Be proud of all your efforts!!!
Yeeessssssssss Ryan!!!! 🎉🎉 Well done!!! 🎉🎉 Top effort!! Genuinely thrilled for you! Such a shame for the person who accused you of cheating that the video is up on TH-cam for all to see that they were wrong and you won fair and square!! 🤣 Well done on your first across the banner win, and for all the ones yet to come! 💪
Just caught the last half of the race. I could not believe it was the same Ryan. Talking tactics I’d use myself (an I’ve been doing this years) with limited success and only recently the odd win. You nailed Ryan at last. We all knew it was coming. Next target group C. That’s a tough one. I’m in group B. Impossible to get a win. For me anyway. Your content is exiting stuff mate. Zwift anyway. I don’t do running so I find that less exiting although runners probably do.
Thank you KJBULL!! Firstly no one finds my running exciting (except me) but they are as much about me overcoming hard challenges like the Zwifting. Cat C is coming but not before I win a few more Cat D races! Thanks for your support sir!
Dude, I've been rollowing your vids lately and also bought a Zwift setup. Very first race yesterday, I see your name pop up! I was proud of my numbers but absolutely had no strategy at all lol.
Nice one Ryan mate, you did it! Great use of tactics, a huge part of Zwift. You're progressing well, looking forward to racing with you in cat C soon...
FANTASTIC RYAN 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Brilliant race craft, well done. It's the best feeling. A stuff the sore loser. You are WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER Boom 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥
Faq me I haven’t been on the edge of my seat that much for a long time !! Nicely prepared and executed !! That hack accusation is golden mate, especially knowing that the whole race has been filmed 😂😂
I can't believe even in zwift people can't take a loss and accuse people if hacking😂 Mad world. Well done. As a noob I can't imagine being able to run a race like that yet.
Yes yes yeeeees!!!!! You done it! Get in there. A race winner. Fucking yes. I’ve waited months for this moment. Proper sporting moment. Experience and tactics used to perfection.
Brilliant !!!! I was shouting at the monitor. " go on son go on" ... I can't believe I was so invested .... oh no wait.. I can because I love the content as ever.... fabulous job. So pleased for you. Smile at the haters .. Idiots 😊
OH MY GOD I felt every second of that last go at the hill to the finish. Fantastic effort and my toes were curling in my shoes watching just how much watts they were pushing to get to you . Brilliant watch.
So happy for you Ryan. Well done!!!! Inspiring me to try the same. Never won a race on Zwift but have somehow found myself in B Cat. Don't fancy my chances much but Ill give it a whirl!
Ha ha Ryan, Well done mate! Excellent work, planning and preparation with some very neat tactics, well deserved with all the hard work you've put in. I was cheering all the way...Well done you, the first of many.
Beautiful. Making sprinters suffer is always worth it even without the win. That cheating comment was completely incoherent. No idea what that rider was talking about.
This makes me so happy. 😁 I won my first Cat C race on Saturday, followed by another win on Sunday, feels good! BTW with your pure watts, you would be very surprised how well you do in a cat C Crit.
F*ckin get in there! So pleased for ya. Who's the daddy? 1st of many. Play to your strengths, make a plan and go. Some ya win, some ya lose. (yes I was shouting at the telly and I don't care.)
Hot dog man, good work and strategy!! I've never won a zwift race, every time I started getting top 10 finishes I'd get promoted category. Sitting now as a mid pack B racer, looking like I need another .5w/kg to start getting top ten again. But that feeling is amazing, like the first time I finished with my TT team. Good work and please don't retire from zwift 😄
Forget the Giro, i want to watch a former fat lad racing pixels on TH-cam. Way way more entertaining. And by the way Ryan, you didn't need that to prove that you're a winner in Zwift or whatever... All of us who watch your output, can see that you that's exactly what you are. Well done.
Well done Ryan. What an achievement. I'm so impressed with your progress, and you ability to stick to the plan (if we disregard going for that green jersey in last race🙃). This is an awesome video. I have been on the exact same journey as you, and was hoping to get that zwift category D win before you, but you beat me to it, kudos. But I guess that's just one more motivating factor for me to push it even harder and trying to get it. Can't wait to see what your next goal on Zwift will be?
That was bloody brilliant! 🥇Congrats Ryan 💪 Been looking forward to this episode being uploaded! Hope you told that tw@t in the msg at the end to do one… Jealousy gets you nowhere and I hope he watches this video and feels like a knob!
Congratulation Ryan, great job! I have to admit, as I watched this video, I was thinking to myself, none of his race tactics are of a sprinter. They are for an attacker, someone who wants to tire out the sprinters then go long at the end and out last them to the finish. Play to your strength Mr. Attacker! Sure, advice from others is helpful but until you learn what's best for you it's all moot. Glad to see you put in the time to learn what's best for you. Now you have to put in the extra time to level up to get better equipment!
Thanks, Yeah I'm learning my strengths. Id like to improve my sprints now as well. I do have a sprint potential however Im so knackered by the end its normally only 300 watts but I do like to attack and will try more now.
I have loved watching your journey to a win. I feel I was doing the same thing as you but in Cat C. Trying to hang on. Then improving and being in the lead group. I was also accused of cheating. It totally means you’re doing well. It’s so fun to be in the lead group and be able to apply tactics. I have been promoted to Cat B and the journey to the lead group has begun again. You will be in C shortly. Enjoy the races and get ready to start over again in Cat C. Congrats
Great win, you were in control from the start and had a plan and did not get punched in the face, I have watched your videos from the start and have really enjoyed watching your journey, look forward for many to come.
I just got “punched in the face” bumped up to B now so I will be hanging on for dear life until the legs and lungs adapt to the new demands! There is no progress without struggle!
Just so fricking cool, mate! You set this as a goal and pushed until you nailed it. It's been brilliant to see. Now you can build on this. It's a confidence boost/confirmation. And it's good experience of knowing how deep you can dig in key moments like the final minute. First of many!
Congrats, well deserved with the progress you've made both physically and tactically. More success should follow. I also once got accused of cheating, and that was not even in a race. People are strange.
Strategy & tactics. Every bit of that victory was earned by all the hard miles over the last 12 months. Well done Ryan - so chuffed for you 🎉
That win only took me 64 races. 💪 Thanks for watching. Im please you enjoyed it.
Yeeeeaaaassssss!!!!….at last. Bloody well done Ryan. Really pleased for you👍🏾
🙏I did it Danny!!
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉
🙌
I watched this video at work, and as you started the last sprint after the bump, my hands were in the air. People were looking at me like I was having a seizure! I almost started crying. Be proud of all your efforts!!!
Thats awesome Drumtoe. Thats a big compliment coming from you! Did you tell them to subscribe to my channel? lol
Caught myself shouting YeS! And fist pumping the air 🤣 so pleased for you Ryan! Class 👏
💪 Thank you!! David!!
Yessssssirrrrrr that's how you PLAY THE GAME BABY!
LETS GOOOO!
Yeeessssssssss Ryan!!!! 🎉🎉 Well done!!! 🎉🎉 Top effort!!
Genuinely thrilled for you!
Such a shame for the person who accused you of cheating that the video is up on TH-cam for all to see that they were wrong and you won fair and square!! 🤣
Well done on your first across the banner win, and for all the ones yet to come! 💪
I hope they watch it! Thank you Steff! I appreciate your support. 💪
Congrats on the journey Ryan, what a hell of a ride ! Strong tactics, stronger legs ! Cheers from France, now on to your first Cat C win 👌
Lets do this! Hello France. 💪
Norwegian Watts approves😎
Thats the approval I was looking for!! Thanks for watching sir!
Congrats Ryan! What a win - strategy, tactics, and power!
Being accused of cheating? Yep, officially a pro Zwifter :)
Thanks Grandpa!! I was thrilled to have got the accusation. No one was accusing me of cheating a year ago. 😂
Love that intro! Great plan! Us 95ish KG’s need to use the momentum on those finish line sprints!!
I’ll keep watching now
Thank you. :)

“If my gears didn’t kick back in my laptop my bike would’ve taken a trip out the window”😢😂😂😂
And they would have! I knew I was winning this ride. 💪
That was a beautiful thing 🎉, so pleased for you, first of many I hope 🤞 👊👍 oh and a great edit too
Thank you Alan, I appreciate your support sir!
Well done Ryan. That's something I will never do.. Congratulations mate 👏
You can do it! 💪
That’s the stuff of legends big man! Well done and enjoy, you’ve certainly grafted for it. 💪💪💪
Congrats! 🎉🎉Soon C! Will be waiting for you in low B. Perfect timing on that feather 👌🏻👌🏻
looking forward to this one 👏🏼🤞🏼
Congrats buddy! Been following you for that win :) See you in cat C!
Dude, I've been rollowing your vids lately and also bought a Zwift setup. Very first race yesterday, I see your name pop up! I was proud of my numbers but absolutely had no strategy at all lol.
Join the club. The only strategy you need is.. Keep going. 🙏🙌
@@ZwiftyZwifter Found a Zwift Hub for a decent price online. Already had a bike, and still looking for a fan
Bravo! (insert Shia Labeouf applause gif) 👏👏👏
Thank you my friend!
I don’t know what I just witnessed….but it was bloody good lad 👏👏👏
Congrats Ryan, been watching since your early vids and you’ve worked hard for it. Keep up the good work with the racing and content.
Cheers for the support Gordon! I really appreciate it.
F**K YEAH 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Lets Go! 💪
Looking forward to competing with next winter in C cat, unless you go straight to B cat. 🏅
Winner winner 🏅 🏆
Could it be? No checking everyone!
Ha it’s 4am and I’m really looking forward to watching this in 13 hrs Ryan 💪💪
Absolutely blinding!! A perfect race lad. Congratulations champ! 🏆
Cheers Steve!!
Whey, nice one! 🥇
Whey!!!
Dude that incredible!!! You “Hacker” 😂😂😂. I’m in tears for you. That was so well done! And you didn’t edit out the scream!!! Heck ya bro!!!
My screams have become jump scares people now expect. 😆
Im pleased you liked my hack.
Awesome Ryan. I'm impressed 🔥
You did it! 🎉 I felt that scream, let it out! Well built up, perfectly finished!
I didnt know if I should laugh or cry.
@@RyanCondon I cried for you, one little man tear, but still! 💪
So happy for you! Let's GOOOO!!!
Nice one Ryan mate, you did it! Great use of tactics, a huge part of Zwift. You're progressing well, looking forward to racing with you in cat C soon...
See you there! (after a few more Cat D wins).
Winner winner…. Many congrats Ryan. Well deserved! Was right there with you…
Thanks Simon! I really appreciate the support. 💪
I love this series! Keep them going!

Well-earned victory Ryan - brilliant execution of strategy.and massive iconic fist pumps
Cheers Gavin.
Bro! You have officially leveled up. You are playing games during the race now? Work on those sprints, and get on a team boy!!!
You did see my DS vid with Nathan. Im not sure a team would want me. lol
@@RyanCondonthe beauty of a team is everyone has a role, you will always be valuable on a team. I see ZRL in your future.
Epic!👊🏼👊🏼💪🏼💪🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼😁😁
Cheers Amosb! 💪
@@RyanCondon any ideas why this race doesn't feature on your companion app activities? 🤔
Faq me I haven’t been on the edge of my seat that much for a long time !!
Nicely prepared and executed !!
That hack accusation is golden mate, especially knowing that the whole race has been filmed 😂😂
Dude! So much fun to watch. Great work.
Thank you, Im pleased you enjoyed it!
Very well done. Happy for you
Thank you 🙏 Feels so good!!
About bloody time..... will be what your girls are thinking, lol.. Well done Ryan, well deserved
They weren't that fussed lol.
I can't believe even in zwift people can't take a loss and accuse people if hacking😂
Mad world.
Well done. As a noob I can't imagine being able to run a race like that yet.
Thanks! Its not that hard. Also, i wouldn't even know how to "hack", crazy allegation. 😅
Yes yes yeeeees!!!!! You done it!
Get in there. A race winner. Fucking yes. I’ve waited months for this moment. Proper sporting moment. Experience and tactics used to perfection.
YESS!! Thanks Paulo!
Brilliant !!!! I was shouting at the monitor. " go on son go on" ... I can't believe I was so invested .... oh no wait.. I can because I love the content as ever.... fabulous job. So pleased for you. Smile at the haters .. Idiots 😊
Thanks Wolf Girl! I really appreciate that. 💪🙏🙌
Congratulations!!! So jealous! Absolutely masterclass you did right there. Send a link to your vids to that noob that accused you of cheating. :)
That's a good idea. I might do that. Thanks for watching. 🙌
Aye Yai Yai! One for the Z-Win Column. 🎉 Congrats. Well played indeed.
Aye Yai Yai! 😅
Nice work Ryan!!! That progress is really showing, now you are bullying people around in the race, love it!!
I have finally become the bully! Finally!! Thanks Denouden!
OH MY GOD I felt every second of that last go at the hill to the finish. Fantastic effort and my toes were curling in my shoes watching just how much watts they were pushing to get to you . Brilliant watch.
They were out and out sprinters, they had nothing expect a big 15 second sprint so I had to ruin their day. No way were they beating me!
Well done Ryan, drop that imaginary mic! Yes Ryan!!! 🏆💪👍
Boom Fran!💪
So happy for you Ryan. Well done!!!! Inspiring me to try the same. Never won a race on Zwift but have somehow found myself in B Cat. Don't fancy my chances much but Ill give it a whirl!
Go for it. Only took me 64 attempts. 😅
Ha ha Ryan, Well done mate! Excellent work, planning and preparation with some very neat tactics, well deserved with all the hard work you've put in. I was cheering all the way...Well done you, the first of many.
👌
Beautiful. Making sprinters suffer is always worth it even without the win. That cheating comment was completely incoherent. No idea what that rider was talking about.
I LOVE IT Psouthworth! Its vindication! No one was getting annoyed with me a year ago when I started racing. 😆
You should be really proud of yourself! The combination of tactics, strategy and fitness all coming together was perfect. Many congrats!
Thank you Mark. 🙌
Congrats Ryan. 👍👌💪
Great race craft! I saw your last result this morning (no spoilers), eagerly awaiting the video for that race.
No spoilers ;)
Thank you!
This makes me so happy. 😁
I won my first Cat C race on Saturday, followed by another win on Sunday, feels good!
BTW with your pure watts, you would be very surprised how well you do in a cat C Crit.
Thanks Chris. I must try a C race soon. 😅
Very hard earned win Ryan!
It's been amazing watching your progression and hope you keep progressing. You'll be ripping legs off people in Cat C soon!
Cheers Jason. I appreciate that.
Great job, Cheers!
So pleased for you Ryan, I was screaming with you at the end! Well deserved victory. Your tactics worked out to perfection 🥇
Thanks Julia. 🙏🙌
F*ckin get in there! So pleased for ya. Who's the daddy? 1st of many. Play to your strengths, make a plan and go. Some ya win, some ya lose.

Thats awesome! Thanks Nik!!! Lets GOOO!
well done mate....nice one!
Congratulations! As someone who just had their first zwift race and got dropped hard, your videos are very inspiring.
Keep going, youve got this! I was there where you are a year ago. Im on the verge of Cat C and about to start the process all over again.
Congrats Ryan, absolutely made up for ya 🏅🏅🏅🏅
Cheers Canary! 💪
Amazing! Top of the board, congrats Ryan. One heck of a ride
Thanks a ton!

Knew the win wasn't far away!

Great win, you were in control from the start and had a plan and did not get punched in the face, I have watched your videos from the start and have really enjoyed watching your journey, look forward for many to come.
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for your support Darrell.
Congrats, Ryan, well done! I never realized so much tactics and strategy was necessary to get a win.
Thanks Ryan. 🙌

There is no winning without loss. 💪

Well done , please spin your legs after the finish to get your HR down
After the finish? But I'm then finished and can get off the torture bike and lie on the floor lol
Awesome job Ryan so happy for you!!! Now time for a Cat C win 😅😂

First of many!

Its just embarrassing all round. 😆 Thank you Tefer!
congratulations, well deserved. when do we get a vid on that game collection.
Condon's gaming channel is when I can't run or Zwift anymore. 😅
Take a bow mate. Proud of you for putting all this time and effort into this and achieving your goal. Epic to watch.
