    Just blame those gravel tyres. That's like 20W right there! Seriously though man good for you, 1. for doing it and 2. for uploading it. That attitude will only get you fitter. You can tell you've never done an ice bath before with how fearlessly you got in that hahaha

    Congratulations on being invited. Netflix would be smart to bring you on for some voice-over work for the next season or for some cameo/analysis. As for the ride, I think that you definitely won the neutral roll-out!

    Benji, everyone is at a different place in their fitness and everyone has the same feelings you did about someone else in their life. The important thing is you’re out there pushing yourself to get better-keep it up sir!

    You are such a huge inspiration! You are one of the reasons I "dared" to buy a roadbike along with my MTB since everyone else around me are 60kg people that thinks everything under 75K is a joyride. I'm 43 and prolly weigh 15kg too much but watching you push yourself IRL and in Zwift have been a big motivation :) Congrats on a cool experience!

    Climbed the Mont Netflix to, just not from Malmedy but inside a 123km tour with just a little more climbing (just shy of 2000hm) the weekend after. I just wish I had an icebath to recover and not a train ride home

    Well done. Remember: comparison is the thief of joy (to some extend). There will always be someone fitter, faster, better... but u did it, enjoyed it, had fun. So, a W for you. If I with 90+ kg would compare myself to all these hip, young, fit individuals on roadbikes, well, i would be depressed i guess ;D But, i dont. I have fun, and step by step getting fitter and faster along the way. And so should everyone.

  • @recordednowhere
    @recordednowhere 25 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I am sort of glad I rode up there alone. In a group I probaby would have finished last, Strava confirms this.
    The final part of the climb does feel long. Also I felt some underlying terror because I thought the final Netflix-built ascend would be much steeper 😊
    Thanks for the video, if someone asks me about the experience, I finally can show them some good images 😅

      ​@@huseyinarisoy7824 When he averages 20 minutes of training per day this year, can you call that trying? If he had put some solid hours in, he might have been able to actually progress quite a lot. For me that would make his "fitness journey" a lot more believable, at least when he promotes nutrition brands and training apps...
