Shall we take Jamie out on his first 100km ride? LIKE the video to make it happen!
Only if I can come?
I'm curious what kind of wkg he can sustain. As a heavier rider myself I know the challenges of riding up a hill when your power is decent, but the weight is messing you up :)
@@derx6666it could be a great series to work on with Jamie
only if you bring some camping equipment too and stay night in the forest.😀
Absolutely, will be an awesome documentation on his first century ride and will be an absolute blast no doubt
Imagine the joy of being in this dude's draft
Bwuhhahhaah
Until it’s not
😂
My buddy that I ride with the most is 6'5 and 265lbs. It is quite a draft, but I can't see anything.
We also have a big powerful rider (by far not as muscular as Jamie) on our team and I swear there's no draft behind him but suction.
@@TobiasRohdethat sucks
Jamie isnt turning the rear wheel when he pedals, he’s rotating the planet 😂
💨🌍
#commentoftheweek !
Ever see that Superman episode where he turns time backward by turning the earth backward? 😂
chuck norris jokes never gets old
“Have you seen his lats those things arent aero in the slightest”🤣🤣🤣
😂
"These bad boys cut through the wind like a knife through butter." Gotta keep it aero.
if he gets going fast enough those lats might turn into wings and he might take off 😂
Needed to brake on a brakeless bike
Like a sugar glider 😄
I’d like to see Jamie on again as he starts his cycling journey. Perhaps his first Gran Fondo ride or something. He’s got such a humble attitude it’s impossible not to root for him
We need to see him up some climbs
That lad is not only cycling bikes
Comment of the week
💉💉💉
Just tren hard and eat clen
Yup, and for a very human squat max.
LOL, he is a definition of cycling in every sense
You would think that Jamie isnt that aero because of his size, but in reality, the air particles just move out of the way because theyre intimidated by his imposing frame.
100% fact
😂
Put a power meter on this guy!
At least a wattbike and see what peak/15s/30s he can do, and compare that with Si.
Unfortuantely power meter in market can display only 4 digits
@theweejr so true!
He’s massive but compared to a pro track sprinter he is squatting about the same or less and almost certainly putting out less sprint power.
@@fatbloaterdave he likely has an insane 1-3min power though, which i think is just as interesting as max watts
Thanks Jamie for being such a great (and competitive) sport.
And 5 stars for whoever stiched together Jamie's speed suit. 💪
Simon ''I have fatter ankles than a bodybuilder'' Richardson. 😅
that is a victory!
As an MTBer I’ve alway been a little anti road biker but I’ve gotta say GCN has done an amazing job of bridging the gap between the genres and focusing on the thing we all have in common…and that’s just biking. I really enjoy your content guys and I hope you keep it up.
I used to be anti road biking “that tiny little tyre feels awful” etc till I decided to try gravel biking.. was a bit of a gateway drug to road riding tbh! 😂 like actually enjoying a climb now… crazy!
@west8723 thanks for the love and we are so pleased you enjoy our content!
Road racers are just fit MTBers:)
I wish I got my own gravel or roadbike 😅😅
Gravel is gaaaaaaay @@chrisdarke
If he has a tailwind his lat spread would be like a yacht sail.
⛵️
That had my heart pumping! I half-expected Jamie to accidentally rip the bike in half and finish on a unicycle!
hahahaha!
Those two side by side is absolutely hilarious. Need to put Jamie next to Feather
Please get Jamie on again, what a great guy and so humble with his achievements.
So what do angry motorists say to Jamie?
🤐
I imagine they crap their pants at the thought of him picking up their car
Nothing absolutely nothing
Toss up who comes off worse in a collision with an SUV
Like a scene from superman when he stops the car .
These are the videos GCN should be making!!! Product placement might pay the bills but seeing you guys having fun is a far better watch
Loved that! Get Jamie on again. 😊
What would you like us to do with him next?
Doping in cycling vs doping in bodybuilding!!!@gcn
@@gcn 100km
@@gcnhill climbing!
@@gcn recumbent?
Jamie is probably the only guy than can make Si's glasses look normal.
We need more of this. Had a smile for 14min on my face
Perfect!
When your glad lycra has alot of stretch.
100%!
Yeah, my first thought was: I didn´t know they make biking suits that big at all! Jamie is really impressive!
The eternal struggle of enjoying being a cyclist but also wanting to be as hench as Jamie
It was joyful watching si and Hank falling in love with Jamie. ❤️❤️❤️
Hopefully we can do more videos with Jamie!
Please do more videos with Jamie. He is enjoyable to watch. Love to see him do some hills. I bet he is very “gravity friendly” on the descents!
We will see what we can do!
More of The Giant please!! Hank and Jamie on his first 100k .. or bring the whole GCN team, you might just about balance his raw strength with everyone in 😂
In all seriousness was epic to see how well Jamie can go on a bike, loved the video
thanks for the love!
Jamie seems like a good guy, i've watched him on Eddie Halls channel alot.
He was great to work with! What should we challenge him to next?!
This was just brilliant! The final interview at McDonald’s was the cherry on top.
the happy meal looked like it was something from a doll's house!
@@gcn did Si use an eating stunt double again?
Top bloke. More Jamie content if he's up for it.
We'll try!
Jamie seems like a great guy and a good sport. More videos including him please. Fair play to both, an interesting experiment and fun video.
Guys, this was awesome! Love you guys at GCN! The best cycling channel out there! 👍🏻💪🏻
thanks!
After reading that Jamie was getting into cycling this is the video I’ve been waiting for! Jamie seems like a really nice guy, rooting for him to tick off his next cycling goals of Sa Calobra and 100km.
We would love to ride with him again!
Dude is a great presence, have more of him on the channel!
Brilliant video - well done!! I'd be terrified
Let us know what we should challenge Jamie to next! 🥵
Blood test?
Jamie vs GCN on steepest climb
Bulge size?
Put and Feather in some kind of competition (not hill climb)
Take him to do that world's biggest breakfast challenge with Conor
Great job GCN! Hope to see more of Jamie on GCN and perhaps on a gravel bike. Cheers!
Ooh, gravel! That could be fun!
That was AWESOME! Had me on the edge of my chair 👌
Si! You beast! This is quality programming
Awesome work for both dudes! Good to see such positive sportsmanship :)
Wow! That was so exciting! I was literally screaming at my computer screen during that last race! Amazing guys! 🔥
😂
That's impressive to have the handling on the track bike for sure. And how on earth did you find a skinsuit to fit him!! Cool video.
Quite entertaining! Congratulations on both you 🎉
ngl, Jamie looks really frightening in that skinsuit to my fragile self-esteem.
how do you think Si felt!
Wow great fun, thanks!
It would be great if you did another video where they team up in a Madison race. Jamie giving Si a hand sling would be incredible 😂
He could set a flying lap record, without realising!
Would be great to see how he gets on with other cycling stuff. Great vid !
Hi, thanks for the comment! Hopefully we can revisit Jamie and his cycling journey!
great episode loved watching this.
btw an idea for a new video.
is it possible for a pro to overtake average riders on a grandmabike or grandpabike ? the bike doenst need to be too old because it need to be doable. gentlemen we are talking about a sleeper bike one that looks old but it equiped with the best stuff. is it me or is this a good concept ?xd
This is why I love cycling. There’s a discipline for everyone no
Matter what!
well said!
What a fun video to watch guys, it was actually breathtaking race😃.
Wow! What a video!! 🙌🏾❤
Enjoyed this.
This is fantastic!
Great video. Although well confused by the concept of a standing start 'flying' lap...
I was hoping to see speeds, times, power meter ratings, w/kg ... to go along with the GoPro... oh well, still so much fun I'm watching this again. Well done all you guys, Jamie and Sy and GCN!!!
I had a great time watching this video :) It was fun :)
amazing work~!
Great video. Jamie is a great sport.
Enjoying this one! Bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Much more enjoyable than I expected…. Well done guys
This is always great to hear
Love it great watch and good luck on sa calobra jamie
Great video. I did my accreditation with Jamie at the Derby velodrome. He's a top bloke and definitely as quick as he looks.
Loved this!!!
thanks! it was great fun!
Entertaining. Good work.
Great vlog, I never realised Giant was a cyclist, great stuff
Thanks for the comment. What would you like us to do with Giant next?
@@gcn Maybe we could get him to race you From Hotwells to Durham downs in Bristol or Naish Hill in Gordano... ?
Great to see a GCN video in Derby Velodrome. Jamie’s a beast, would be good to see more content from him.
How about a team race, Jamie and Manon vs Si and Hank on the track?
Very good episode!
I hit the like button after Si’s first lap. Awesome!
🫶
Loved how Hank didn't missed the chance to hug those muscles !!
Awesome video! Great sport Jamie.
Glad you enjoyed it
Love the track focus…
It really is the side of the sport that is accessible to riders of all sides :p
Loved this 👍
thanks!
Never been a fan of Gladiators, but what a good sport Jamie is. Very good indeed.
Omg cannot tell you how much I loved this video!! Love Giant! Need to get legend on there too!!
Let's see what we can do!
Excellent, well done guys!
Glad you liked it!
That was really good
That was fun to watch! Not familiar to track racing formats so genuinely wasn’t sure how the results would turn out. Love seeing athletes from other sports take up cycling. Jamie seemed like a cool guy. And Hank being there was a bonus
Glad you enjoyed it! Hopefully we can do some more with Jamie in the future!
Awesome vid - well done.
thanks!
This was perfect! Can't wait to see Si the Gladiator try to bench, well... something :)
We look forward to that too!
I really enjoyed that, Jamie is a good sport!
We agree he really is!
This was a fun one. Would love to see Jamie back on again!
Glad you enjoyed it!
great effort from both 🚴🏋️ of you guys🏆
Thanks!
lovely vid!
Jamie is such a humble and nice man..
It’s great to see other larger riders on bikes 😊❤
We want to do more with Jamie!
This has the makings of a good series 😊
A Happy Meal is the perfect stake for a friendly bet! Brilliant 😍
Yep, maybe not a McDonald's one...
That was a very funny video! Jamie is great!
Great video.
Back to what GCN does well, less of the marketing bullshit, more of the fun.
glad you enjoyed the video!
Def one of the best vids i seen in a long while, loved how they are at either end of the physical spectrum build. great stuff.......more of Jamie and get him on a mountain bike (GMBN) going down hill lol.
ooooh, a GMBN crossover!
Ye def The Giant, The Blake and……Si doing loops of FOD.
Jamie is "flex" personified, what a man. Hoping for more content with him, watching him do his first century would be awesome. Thoroughly enjoyed that, good one, GCN. Si's ankles weren't aero but his lats made up for it haha
thanks for the love! We hope to do more with Jamie in the future!
Yes deffo get Jamie out on 100km ride - love to see that 💪👍
💪
Loved this Si / Hank! great fun and the big man can certainly push some watts / power !!! (Definitely take Jamie out for his first 100km ride) 🙂
rumour has it the powermeter exploded trying to calculate Jamie's numbers!
Awesome video........made me smile and laugh!!
🫶
Really enjoyed this video, but the best part was after it had finished (stay with me here) where I nearly fell off my chair in fits of giggles imagining Viper on a cookery show.
That was fantastic.
glad you enjoyed!
What a gent Jamie is! True sportsman and nice guy.
💪
Good job!
Jamie - just brilliant. Imagine a home and away competition with lifting 😂
Bloody hell he can shift for a biggun! Brilliant video.
Brilliant lads!
👍
Nice one GCN 👏
💪
