- Curious about what it REALLY takes to compete at the pinnacle of gravel racing? Here's a look at what the top male and female pros are doing to ride fast and push the limits at Unbound and the Lifetime Grand Prix. I dig into power numbers, training stats, nutrition, hydration, equipment choices and all that jazz... Enjoy :)

Great information. As a slow, back of the pack rider that struggles with nutrition, it was interesting to learn how the pros do it. Thanks for all the effort you put into this.
Glad it was helpful!
Good to hear the high carb numbers from the pros. As someone who is about 200#, I normally need to do 130-140g/hr for endurance events, otherwise I'll bonk. You are likely leaving performance on the table doing less carbs. My carb sources used to be infinit, but swapping to flow to add the fructose source has been instrumental in increasing hourly intake without stomach issues. Then add a fig bar half or cliff bar half each hour as well. Great video, very interesting and informative. Those power numbers are absolutely crazy. Lastly, I've been rocking the 2.2 Race Kings on my Stormchaser. They are slower on super flat and fairly smooth local gravel but when things are technical they are great. I wish they had a 2.0 performance RK, that would be perfect IMO.
Great insight, thanks for sharing 🤙
Comparing Dylan with your dog licking an empty tuna can ... golden!
😂 thanks - didn’t think anyone would get that far into the video!
Thanks for all the time spent on this video, it was cool to see all the different stats.
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment :)
Epic report. Keep them up!
Thanks for watching!!
Great video and breakdown! Thank you 🙏🏼 Will be watching for more.
Thanks for watching!
Wow. That breakdown was excellent. Well done Thank you!!
Glad you enjoyed it! Ride on :)
Epic video befitting an epic race☮️
Thanks for watching :)
Great and interesting video, especially on the fueling process.
Glad you enjoyed it :)
So good, I subscribed.
Thanks for the sub and for watching :) ride on!
Thank you for all information, that’s a lot of work collecting data and stats. Next year I’ll riding the Atlas Mountain Bike Race and if you can make a few videos focusing on how to prepare for such race for beginners, in a language that any rookie like me can understand, I’m just the average recreational/bikepacker rider who wants try out an ultra endurance bike race. I have seen many of your videos on the ultra endurance subjects but sometimes is overwhelming when you compress so much info and you talk too fast too 😂 cheers from Norway 🇳🇴
thanks for commenting - sorry I speak fast - good luck on the AMBR :)
Fantastic Insight! Subscribed.❤️🇰🇪👌🏿
Awesome, thank you!
Quite interesting 💪
Thanks for watching!
Loved it 👍
Glad you liked it - ride on!
It'd be cool if you covered some of the riders in this year's The DAMn (Day Across Minnesota). There is a 240 mile and a 480 mile (aka Double DAMn) race!
I will check into it, thanks!
big fan
Thanks for watching and commenting - ride on!
best video of 2024
Thanks for your kind words :) ride on!
Lachlan Morton is just a machine and already a legend. He's probably one of the few who still got a career after having a career if you know what I mean. And what a surprise from Rosa, mad respect for having 2 career at the same time !
Rosa is definitely on everyone's radar now :) I know I'll be keeping tabs on her, and super friendly too...
Great data , really interesting 👍 the carb intake really amazing to consume that amount for 10hrs , i guess that must make a huge difference to pro rider speed times for these races and tour de france . So are they pretty much consuming all their calories per hour just carbs for whole race and no fats or protein at all , just using existing body fat 🤔 i think Race Kings may well be the fashion next 12 months to challenge Mezcals 🤠
Thanks for watching and commenting, ride on!
Does anybody discuss the likelihood of performance enhancing "supplements" in non-pro racing?
Watchin and reading the recent scandals and history in the tdf in recent years , I would say extras for performance is very high . Alot of folk ex pros from the peleton
Good question
What about the top ten finish from SV local stud Joel Brazil in the XL and Josh Berry, born and raised SV local now living in AZ!
Definitely studs:) especially Brazil at 56a inspired riding for sure! And to beat Kurt Refsnider is no joke either… thanks for sharing 🤙🙌
good news, I have a 5 second power that is similar to the top unbound riders from this year. Things fall off rapidly from there.
Hey, at least you share something with the top riders! 😀
Glancing at your chart i wonder if the average heart rate is incorrect. It suggests they're all in a range between 73-89 which seems more like a low HR than an average HR.
Good catch! I slipped up when transferring for TH-cam… 73-89 are avg cadence numbers… avg HR’s mostly in the 140’s/ low 150’s - thanks so much - ride on!
Top drawer DT, top drawer.
Thanks for your kind words 🤙
gear is easy compared to fueling
