Now I have to find somewhere that sells Penguins in China for my race fuel :) Thanks Rob, great recon. A course where you may need to make decisions on the fly as it all unfurls!
@@shaunrigby1 it’s gonna be tough if you’re not in the top half of the race for 3 min power for sure. But you never know…anyway fun is the name of the game!
I think there are 3 positions where you can collect powerup (not only 2, you've forgotten the 2nd 15.2 km) : 1st : 0.2km : th-cam.com/video/VlLLKRxySIU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=z8gnZ9rNTL4UX-WL&t=356 2nd : 15.2km : th-cam.com/video/VlLLKRxySIU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=jl3kFaJcW_CLpm7A&t=525 3rd : 17.3 km : th-cam.com/video/VlLLKRxySIU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=unp4tpX7yTqppeC0&t=544
I think that may just be because it was an old race, one of the secret powers. This more recent race shows nothing there.... th-cam.com/video/h7wZsiqZIqk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-DGnPvpYsJCZiZ7n&t=1632
Thank for the great recons and notes.
There is a small mistake in the notes though. The finish is set to 24.2km, this should be 29.8 😅
@@samuelstougaard6948 ooops, sorry and thanks!! I’ll get that corrected tonight!
Now fixed, thanks again
Epic start of the video! ❤
Cheers!
my go-to for all ZRL insight - so helpful
Thanks for the comment, Iain! Really helps me keep on going. They take a while!
I'm all about Rob's intro's! bloody brilliant!

@@benfinesilver2250 gosh, I wonder if any providers of penguin-based cycling foods would like to sponsor these?
You’ve got a sponsor! It’s about time people realize who does the best recons!
Well, its stiff competition nowadays! Yeah, their kit is sooo good too, happy to be associated with them.
Great recon & tips, buddy! It's time to streamroll ourselves till the banner, lol 😆.. cool route with lots of variation 😊
@@darrenvandit I think a good one for you, pal
@ZwiftyZwifter let's hope, though I'm in a category higher than my level. B3 would have been perfect
@@darrenvandit Can we have a C team, I nearly died racing you B's yesterday 🤣🤣
Love it. Sounds like my kind of race
@@CycleXplorer one for those with grit!
Cool course! 😁
I'm DELIGHTED you like it. A bit too gravel for me. But I suppose that's fair,.
Another great recon vid Rob. Thanks for all the info 🙏. Was the random picture of the penguins at 7:45 a test to see who was watching carefully? 😂
Yes! Great spot, you win the prize!!
@ZwiftyZwifter KABOOM!
Great recon. I miss the bike swap days. So much “fun and carnage” 😂
Everything in the past was far more fun!
Thanks Rob! I thought about bike swap too, but: no! And I hope Mozart can still sleep peacefully.
@@marcorufer2342 what about Cardi B?
Nice one Rob. Looks likely I will get dropped on the Epic KOM, but I will enjoy it whatever the outcome

@@psymanj73 cheers, dude!
Zwiftyyy
Yo yo yo!!
Cheers for the recon Rob 👍. I am thinking of getting some new VELO bibs , is this any discount code 😉🙏🤗
I’ve never thought to ask! I paid full price for my last set, I’ll see if they want to do something like that.
@ much appreciated 👍

Thanks, Yan!!! I didn’t notice that and it’s not on the course markers.

@@ZwiftyZwifter Yes, you're right, this checkpoint no longer gives powerups! 👍
Oof hills 😫.
You'll be awesome!!!
What's the ideal moment to use the first steamroller?
@@ArjanGroen-g5l I’d say approaching the bridge at 13.5km there’s final bump
