Eric: great result, you rode and pushed a smart race. You mentioned a gravel race series suggestion, I enjoyed Substance Project 3 gravel races in 2024 , a chill vibe , and challenging.
@@DontGetDroppedCycling Im from Vancouver Island and we now have the BWR (Belgian Waffle Ride) every year in the Cowichan area, apparently its an amazing gravel race. I want to try it one of these years.
It is Black Friday…. I just smashed the screen of my current GoPro literally while filming the intro here so I’m already on the look out and this current one can go to the rear!
hey bro watched the uncut earlier nice commentary on this one bro. Funny how the old heart rate bumps up a bit when ur doing the hussle in and through the group. You definitely got bit excited on the chase and bro some nice hill pushes. 👍🤙🏼
15:32 that van upfront is creating a lot of draft. The front group is strong already they don’t need extra help. Meanwhile, you guys have to keep dropping 600-850 watts trying to catch up while they get a free ride. The organizers should have used a motorcycle. That’s what they used to the races I’ve been here in the states.
Great race recap. Had to make it spicy for good content, but it cost you in the final sprint. Really good racing though. Enjoyed the running commentary too.
@ it’s definitely always more wild IRL!!!! I find I can hit max a lot quicker outdoors and on the flip side can chill real hard and bring those average watts down in the draft.
@@DontGetDroppedCycling you’re joking right. Your HR certainly can vary a bit indoor vs outdoor but not 30bpm (some races on zwift with a similar intensity you have 135bpm avg that has NOTHING to do with can go harder/deeper outside). I asked Dylan, he says it’s due to a bad quality trainer and/or calibration. Like so many a B+ virtual and C- in the real world. Might be wiser to not post irl videos with data.
You’re right I don’t know and don’t care tbh. Just riding my bike for fun! Kickr Core auto calibrates and I calibrate the pedals before each ride but you just can’t please everybody 😘
Thanks!
🤙🏽
19:40 I was dieing, lol

Saddle Sista 😂. Bringing that back to Tennessee
Really enjoyed this! Agree with you... time for a rear view camera in the spring! 👊

Lesson of the day… start closer to the front next time!
real races in IRL is like a races on swift hahahaha!!!
This legitimately was a Tour of Watopia MASS CAT START!!! BANANAS
That's not bad in the top 30% for someone who just comes into a real road race as if it was zwift world.
You just smashed it with no real game plan.
And I had a BLAST doing so!
love ur videos , gives me the urge to cycle , too bad i cannot afford a bicycle .. keep it thou , i love ur spirit
Hope you get one some day!!!!
@@DontGetDroppedCycling Merci

Let’s be real I wasn’t going to get anyone at the line with my “sprint” even if I had legs left! 🤪
love the laugh 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Entertaining commentary 😂😂😂😂😂
Thanks for watching ✌🏽
Cool helmet!
So cool I smashed the first one and had to get a second!
I. Had to rage quit this vid because of the chaotic group riding ❤😂
I got some smooth group pace line videos in the hopper waiting to be edited from the summer still… stay tuned ✌🏽
Good video, What is your helmet ?
Supreme x Giro Syntax
23:35 😳😨😱
There’s a reason Ed said don’t cross the yellow line… 🙃 Sticking to the right side next time!!
Don’t lie, you included that pre-race shirtless clip for all your thirsty followers. Give the people what they want! 😅
LMAOOOOOOOOO Only Fans next? Used bibs and socks also for sale 🤪
YOU want it.
Looks like a much better experience than Hell of the North 🤣Guess that's why it's "Heck" and not "Hell"
Much more enjoyable... we need to bring a team!
did you warmup
@@MrLoose26 6:40
Why is your avg hr so much higher irl than in ZP and the avg W are lower ?
No idea 🤷🏻♂️ go ask Dylan Johnson
I was about to ask the same! I was always amazed of how low de HR on Zwift is, but I can see that on the road it goes crazy!

I don't understand why the roads aren't closed where the stop signs are. This is terrible
Because Ontario and basically North America don't care about cycling! If we had to close the roads the event wouldn't even happen because of money.
Cost way too much to hire cops
