  • After a yearlong hiatus Descent Disciples is back with a bang. One of the best bike racers in the country, Cory Williams, graces the series with his presence. Shortly after completing the SoCal triple crown - winning the road, criterium, and time trial titles, he had the energy for one last push before shutting his 2021 season down. Cory lead me down Glendora Mountain Road on the east side of LA. This is a descent he knows like the back of his hand and it shows. He has put in hundreds of hours of training here and has a formidable KOM time on the descent. We came within 10 seconds of that time which is extremely impressive considering he was working into a headwind, pushing out a normalized power number of 303 after a huge block of racing.

    GMR down in 12m 15s, sweet fancy moses... I'm 2 minutes off and that's like ~300/16000 on the GMR downhill to the gate. I've taken SOME corners at similar speeds but doing the whole thing pinned is madness. Even more kudos to you and Cory for doing this when GMR isn't closed to cars.

I was riding a custom built TRACK Bike that was converted to road! SUPER TIGHT And SUPER FAST And it was SUPER QUICK! Totally insane! Everything was good as long as my fork would nut gunk up on me. My wildest ride was! Doing a hole shot down the middle of 3 motor cycles and clearing 3 cars on one pass! FOR SURE THOSE DAYS ARE NO MORE!

  • @philippang07
    @philippang07 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    He's just at one with his bike... pro-level handling and some parts just got me flinching, especially when he took the car.... nerves of steel, confidence and skill. Not everyone has it. I've gone 63kph on a mountain down before sharp hair pins and didn't dare push it more. Not when you're unfamiliar with the route, and traffic. So I really hand it to these two excellent cyclists - you really have to traverse across the entire width of the road as you lean into the corner to take the turn, and the thought of a car showing up on the other side is just..... not worth it.
    Keep safe, cos one twitch is all it takes. I don't wish to ride in such manner I risk limb and life for speed. Wanna get home safe to family and to be able to live to ride another day for as many years the body is able. The pros taking on over 100km on those long mountain downs..... I'm just shaking my head in awe. Just mindset, nerve, skill, and confidence.
    Kudos on an exceptional descent.
