@@ApexHerbivore No Mountain Bike category under the sun is any more dangerous than doing 40+km/h over a belt sander like they do every time they ride on a street.
This was hilarious. All the giggles, the extremely manly “Oh gosh, oh goodness,”. Such a laugh to watch. Any channel crossover is always one of my favorites.
blake's explosive power is severely underrated, he also beat hank in the steep cobbled climb video, this is a proof why mountain bikers like mvdp and sagan wins in steep but short sprints in a road race. amount of torque needed to push the gears on rocky terrain is massive hence why blake won
I do both, and roadies could get very suprised when someone sprint them while sitting. They are used to stood up sprints and putting sudden 800+ watts while still in the saddle can really shock them.
the riders will more likely choose a sport which suits them physiologically, mountain bike racing requires sharp short efforts whereas road cycling is very much consistent power.
One thing I noticed when I rode a tracl for the last time was how cool the community was. They where very welcoming and fun to just chat with. It was alot like the MTB community. I'm over road rides and krits. Those guys dont care if they wreak each other (as much). I am looking forward to seeing the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic and Paraolympic track racing at my local Velo center
I would love to see Blake on one of the longer, mountain road stages in that area. I don't know the names of the climbs in that area, but lots of climbing. I'd love to see his power numbers and how a MTB-er tackles mountainous road descents.
The thumbnail for this video looks exactly like Rob McElhenney and Charlie Day. So much so that I thought this was a trailer for It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia. Very confused to find out that it’s not.
Are you guys using toe Clips or spd's by chance cuz I've got a pair of spd's on my single speed with a flip flop wheel and the fixie side is one of my favorite sides to ride as of late I've been flipping my wheel fixed one week and then free will the next but my ultimate dream is to ride in a velodrome looks really rad
No issues with assembly for me th-cam.com/users/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L but I could see where some might benefit from using an experienced bike assembler/mechanic. I'm an older rider starting back after a 10 year break. This bike exceeds my capabilities and has been easy to get comfortable riding. I'm mostly on easy trails with almost no street riding and have not been disappointed with the performance of the bike. My fitness level is far below what I previously rode with and because of that the mileage is going on the bike slowly. While I'm losing weight slowly, the bike seems to tolerate my 220 pounds just fine. The bike has been used by several family members ranging from 5'5" - 5'9".
Rich and Blake have great chemistry, they're brilliant entertainment when it comes to challenges. I would love to see more budget MTB challenges, along with Doddy, they were hilarious
she already oriented the two about track cyling a few weeks ago that's why tehy're sharing the tips, and it's not like rich and blake are gonna compete serious track races lmao
Blake would have gone faster with a taller gearing, you can see when he was next to Connor the difference in gears. Now, for something new... try on BMX! :) Including the GCN crew
Imagine GMBN and GCN making a video further blurring the line between roadies and MTB by having GCN do an XC or even Enduro race and GMBN do a gravel race. Bikers should be united! Edit: GMBN doing CX would be great to see too
@@talonlan Hopefully Gravel riders are able to radiate their chill to road bikers as a whole though even without that, elitism in rbiking has been steadily declining, or at least more and more decent people are going cycling
If anyone ever offers the opportunity to ride on the track I can thoroughly recommend it, it’s one of the best cycling related things I have ever done, it’s brilliant.
"I've got gloves" ...(points to calluses) My kind of guy. Also, i think its cheating when Blake changes into a skinsuit and looks EXACTLY like a muscular track sprinter. Cheating! Also, id love to see the stats of who watches just one of the two channels, and who watches two or more. I will watch all the channels in english, because ALL BIKES MATTER!
YES! TRACK CYCLING! As a sprinter I use my MTB to cross train. I just enjoy going fast! Riding my MTB greatly adds to bike handling skills. Love seeing more track cycling across all the CYCLING NETWORK. Also, if this was on the GCN and no one knew better, Blake would fit right in as a sprinter.
That was proper cool. Please do more if this. And we should install Rich in the UCI board for new funny terms. Since everything is French in road/track cycling it‘s flingeur and flungeur. 😂

Fixable with 9:16 formats 🤣🤣
Belter
How tall is he?
@@Modrunnermusic 6’7” I think. “El Alto” was his nickname in the peloton.
That’s the cleanest berm I’ve ever seen.
Yu guys should make manon and conor mtbing ‘cause they are the only gcn presenter who havent yet try mtbing
Ikr
Agreed!
make them ride mtb
Manon and Conor on MTB sounds like several reps of OTB
Seriously, GMBN, get to it!
@@cloroxbleach9222
Perfect then.
Well basically that's a huge wall ride! :D
Love to see you guys doing different stuff with the GCN team! 👍👍
Let’s get the Manon and the GCN crew doing some DH now…
Some XC, too, please!
Probs too dangerous

I would like to see GMBN head over to the trails on a Unicycle.
GMBN down the trails on road bikes GCN on mountain bikes
More collabs like this please! 🤙
It's nice to see GCN and GMBN getting together in a friendly atmosphere, just enjoying themselves!

mvdp start from cyclocross, that's where he got the torque, because go up on the front at start is really important.
the riders will more likely choose a sport which suits them physiologically, mountain bike racing requires sharp short efforts whereas road cycling is very much consistent power.
@@ohne_speed yh an 800w seated sprint will get you to the same speed as a 1000w out of the saddle.

I love these crossover vids. Both the GCN and GMBN team are awesome! I bet Manon would be a great XC'er
Loved it. Combined GMBN/GCN Tour Divide next please :-)
I think gmbn's should be involved in the gcn zwift racing league. They have tons of watts 💪👍
You should find a nice trail in the peak district in yorkshire. Its beautiful round there, lots of nice trails and woodland
Great vid!
Blake has a little Robin Williams vibe... would have been crazy to see those two do a ride video together. Awesome stuff...
Cool video. Thanks for all you do on the channel.
Loved this. Always wanted to have a go on a velodrome, it looks fun 😅
This has to be my favorite video of either channel to date.
That was so much fun! I was wondering what its like to ride the track!
i want Blake back on the track! look at those legs man! give the man i higher gear!
Nice slingshot action!!! Cool music, great video. 💪🔥
nice houndstooth skinsuit on blake
You should try riding at trails in real winter, lot of snow and -15 celcius.
I would love to see Blake on one of the longer, mountain road stages in that area. I don't know the names of the climbs in that area, but lots of climbing. I'd love to see his power numbers and how a MTB-er tackles mountainous road descents.
the look she gave when he tapped the disk wheel
Would love to see you guys do a hiit video with these guys on the training GCN videos.
Gotta love these channel collaborations
It’s really cool you guys are showing other disciplines and breaking barriers between mtbers and roadies. We’re all friends here lol
More GCN collaborations please! This was ace.
How about a GMBN Zwift session? There are some MTBs on Zwift 👍
love you choice og music hehe
that was cool...what's with the shades indoors?
GMBN + GCN = 😊
The thumbnail for this video looks exactly like Rob McElhenney and Charlie Day. So much so that I thought this was a trailer for It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia. Very confused to find out that it’s not.
Blake and Rich should take Manon and Alex to Bike Park Wales....
Rich and Blake is such a great combo
Would love Blake do bmx racing 👌🏻
I like Blake on skinsuit. 😂
Following on from track cycling give tracklocross a go!
Get Mannon out on the trails!
now GCN team has to go and do some SHREDDING
Road hill climb next.
Great vid, We want more, We want more, We want more!!!!!
5:31 51-13 is beyond a gangster gear if you have ridden fixed Jesus

Would love to see the GMBN lads have a crack at tracklocross
5:23 Carbon Lodi
BMX! Do some BMX tracking training next.
Hey you guys 👋 fab video. 🚴♂️🚴 Maybe Harry and Marv 🤭 could do a BMX video next 😀
That's definitely mixing it up
Now to get GCN out on some bike park. 🤘
Trials next???
Time to try out using only one wheel next...Xtreme UNICYCLING! 😜
You should try hill climbing or time trial next.
i whant to see you guy's on mono cycles, that would be hilarious.
Have you covered Ebikes?
Try riding Tracklocross. It's a track bike, but not really...
“Ganarly”
Everyone does a 'cross race.
BMX BMX BMX bmx it's what we want and need
Haha! Hilarious
Hank and Blake as a team anyone?
“Guhnarly trails”
Try bikeball.

Please GMBN do not make an OnlyFans
The pure homosexual energy in this video was all I needed
Dolan bikes is built different
I want to see you two race motocross!
Blake is a treasure.
I vote Blake does all videos from now on dressed like this.
GMBN needs a cute cycling girl too. Other than Blake
Right? Even Pinkbike has Christina Chappetta!
I support this
i second the motion
Why?

(Nice pfp) yes, I'd love seeing thrm do Pilgrim style videos of ridiculous upgrades and parts
@@Fred_the_1996 it's gonna be epic
Do we get to see the GCN team on some trails next?
yes these are the best
Blake taught Ollie how to MTB before.
@@yengsabio5315 they also did collab videos with Si and Hank before, if I'm not mistaken.
if we talk olimpics calber, than rampage :P
they should try serious xc tracks.
This Track is the biggest wooden feature an mtb´er ever has ridden on
It's infinitely long
Why is the winning track cyclist Manon not the "expert"?
she already oriented the two about track cyling a few weeks ago that's why tehy're sharing the tips, and it's not like rich and blake are gonna compete serious track races lmao

Now, for something new... try on BMX! :)
Including the GCN crew
They can't have the MTB crew beating the road crew. That would've been pretty embarrassing for Blake to come in and beat them at their own game
Blake has a good build he looks really strong
@@deeerek0756 Blake has done it with hank over hills so..
My dude MTB’s only go DOWN hills at least 70% of the time. How do you expect better legs than professional velodrome cyclists who train everyday??
@@mr.recorder4781 because the same mtb-ers have to get up the hill for the next run! do you think they walk the bike? =P
This is the second time I get the feeling Blake is going to say: „but kind of the same…“ as if you were in Berm Peak Express. 🤙🏽

Totally agree, but as a Roadie I can say the issue is with us, Roadies can be elitist pricks.
Jumps on a velodrome? :)

I think Blake did that already with Simon.
@@Bob_Shy_132
The others need to get on it then!
I've got my first roadbike last year and boy it changed the way I ride enduro,dh and trail. Best decision ever
you should try BMX
next...manon tries mtb 😂😂

Thanks Rich, Blake et al...Conor makes you guys look like hobbits ! Peace
Or they make Conor look like an Ent.
That was an awesome collaboration between the channels, so much fun to watch. Also definitely approve of the music choice during the Madison practice!
Yeah Blake have some explosive power in legs
Why blake looks like a wrestler 😂😂
Blake is my favorite presenter, always makes me laugh. He is the GOAT. He should bring that outfit and helmet to the Trails.
Thanks guys
You make my day happier btw blake in lycra looks …great
16.4s laps, Alex? Dowsett rode those for an hour!
6:24 highlight of this video
Video idea for you.
Bicycle Trials. Get Ali Clarkson onboard to show you the way. Have a multiple presenter challenge on sections set by Ali
Such a good idea!
Please try skii biking next time it snows up where you are. It is SOOOOOOO much fun
