    What is it like as a Pro CX racer on a big race day? Watch this video and find out! SUBSCRIBE if you are new and if you liked the video then give it a share, it helps me out loads! What was the best part of the video, let me know below 👍

    Nice to watch these videos without advertising some new ‘freebie’ products they have been given to use. Also he is keen to listen and learn and understands that he is at the start of what I’m sure will be a very successful career. Look forward to watching the World’s this weekend. Good luck !

    Fab insight, interesting to hear the rationale on your race day routine, as well as the commentary on the race. A training day next, would be good 👍

    A very informative and well produced video Cam. I was willing you on during the live feed from CGN, it was interesting to see your progress in the race. Well done. Also good to see how you look after yourself with the cooking and chores etc. Good luck on your next race, I will be watching with interest.

    this is great, Cameron! as amateurs, best part is knowing what to focus on the pre-race recon. As an amateur, we often only get one, maybe two laps in, so have to be sharp about it.

    Super interesting insights in the course of a race day. Most of the time we only get to see a one hour race on television. Showing us what is going on as soons as getting out of bed until arriving back home, is a real treat. Enjoyed every minute of it. Thanks for the video Cameron! Oh and also ... great race!

    Ahhhhh the things you do for the luv of the sport. Those Belgian farm fields used for races when wet, turns the course into a mud & cow poop slurpee. You're a better man than me Cameron. Btw you can now add to your resume passed & overtaken Van Der Poel in a UCI elite race! So its David & not Mattew but it was still impressive how many places you made up & you were mentioned on Sporza. How's the Flemish? Learning the language will go a long way to help further your career. All the best for Team Trinity.

    I spent half of each lap on in my last race unable to clip back in, fine until I was really working the bike and pulling my feet out. Other than kicking my chainstays (the bike is only 2 races old and a still like it too much), how would you guys suggest clearing the cleats? I've heard of Pros, cutting parts of the tread of their soles off so it's a little more open but this seems a little extreme. Top work Cam, enjoying your progress at the top level. Keep it going!

    • @cameronmason
      @cameronmason  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ah that's a bummer. Yeah, not being able to get your feet in is very frustrating. I usually just kick on my pedals to clear them. Yes, I have heard of people cutting away at the shoes so that might be something to try
