I enjoy your videos. Raw and full of emotion. Don't change man, be you. One thing I respect about you is how much you value your role as a husband and father. Cycling is awesome, but being a great man for your family is pretty damn cool, too. Ride on!
I get the idea of having fun on a short course. Last spring I did a "100 Miles of Nowhere" ride in my neighborhood. It was a 0.85 mile lap, all right turns, one stop sign I could cruise thru. First time i've done under 6hrs century, and it was a blast. Watching people and cars and houses and things change thru the day was neat.
I remember when me and my mate wanted to get the strava monthly climbing challenge where we had to climb 1500m. We live in the flattest place on earth (northern flanders) and we took a train to a hilly region and just did the same thing we could almost coast up the other side and did about 200 ups and downs 😂 absolute blast
Monster effort. I almost think this kind of interval on and off effort could be as hard if not harder than a constant effort on one climb. Huge well done 🫵🏻💪🏻🎉
I recall a few weeks ago thinking about your 1st attempt at an Everest. Back when you were wearing flannel for lack of proper gear. While still not a “proper” Everest you’ve come along way. Kudos!
Bro Awesome Yut, its crazy that you are 182lbs. You look way healthier with some muscle. You actually look leaner body fat % now than at 156 or whatever. Keep killing it.
@@TheVCAdventures is your VO2 max higher at 182? Or was it higher at 155? What was your VO2 max when you came back from south America when you did 440 watts for 10 minutes?
@Southerncyclist vO2 max is ratio of oxygen intake to body weight. It would be difficult to compensate for that much body weight gain with improved oxygen intake.
@@mitchellsteindler buttt having great nutrition vrs being borderline malnourished at 155 . Could have massive performance gain's in blood volume and make up for the 20lbs. Plus Im sure all hormone levels are higher at 182 vrs 155. Which also greatly improves performance. 50% of cycling performance gains are in blood volume.
Perfect timing on this video. I'm doing a vEverest attempt this Saturday so I'll be able to pull some motivation from this one! I'm a midwest flat lander, so virtual is my only convenient option, but one day I'll pick a real Everest destination.
Great stuff well done. Its a huge accomplishment, even doing it like this. In fact as was mentioned by thebikepackingadventurer below, despite the gains you get from gravity, the constant power bursts each interval could be harder than a long steady gradient. Its easier to run a marathon at a steady pace than to do it in sprint intervals, you probably wouldn't even finish a marathon if you tried this interval power burst method. On Zwift you earn the Tron bike for climbing 50 000m. There is a particular piece of road on Zwift just like this one in the video - it was where I did precisely sessions like in this video to get to 50 000m. Its one thing to climb a 3000ft (1000m) mountain like Alp D'Huez every day. But this half pipe method builds amazing burst power for real world cycling. But just the fact that you climbed The Everest in 1 sitting is truly remarkable, period. Congratulations !
I had been wondering if anyone did these Everests anymore and I like the way you did yours, you did the elevation with a run-off ramp, in effect, and that's a whole lot safer than jamming on the brakes at the bottom and safety counts anywhere, especially open public roads. And it does look like you have that tough guy, one-day Euro race-winning form. They should let you ride a big race or two over there, like the UCI Gravel Worlds,, just tell 'em about all the great footage you would get with your selfie stick. 😀
Great video. Since you weren't trying to set an actual Everesting time I don't imagine this matters to you, but one reason your time was as long as it was is because the climb was relatively short, meaning you had to ride a lot more miles overall. You rode 30 miles more than Phil Gaimon did in his effort. Even if you were climbing faster than him, those extra 30 miles are gonna add a lot of time.
@@therondcI think ur math is off, shorter climbs would not add more miles (unless you are adding the distance to do the U turn, which would not add up to 30miles), less steep climbs add miles. All the real records are done on very steep hills.
I was stoked to hear you finally did an everesting, especially with your own twist. I'd done a virtual last feb and got a video DM from you on ig congratulating me which made my day. I will say seeing that bar bag made me facepalm a little 😉
Valid Challenge...As an x racer I am always looking for ways to keep things spicy. This is a perfect idea for anyone rider at most any level. Maybe breaking up in a weekend or do an Everest week. Excellent video.
Where i live, my driveway is down hill into and uphill, ill get on my bike for an hour and just go up and down back n forth, it is so much fun with the "halfpipe" concept
Crazy effort! I'd like to try a half everesting in the same manner. The 6:40 record time without the benefit of downhill momentum is beyond comprehension.
Another awesome video. Based on comments, I think a video on how you added 20lbs of muscle would be another good one. Since I enjoy hitting the weights in the winter, I'm wondering if you were able to maintain your power/weight ratio.
I totally understand how you considered this fun. On a not nearly as epic scale I used to do this on night rides in a cool little section of downtown Toronto. Gotta start doing that again.
Hey Tyler, I noticed you don't wear your whoop anymore, but you have an apple watch. Do you use an app that tracks similar to what Whoop did? Thanks :) Love the vids.
I had the genius idea to wait for a steep average gradient climb to be on the calendar for Zwift’s climb portal, but to ride it at 125% gradient to have an optimal hill. Checked first and found out that using this option makes it “illegal”
You could do it even faster if you found the optimal point of turning around once you reach a certain amount of effort to climb and have expended all of your gravitational stored energy from the previous descent!
Very interested in your 1x setup that you run on your bikes and have seriously been considering it for several different reasons you mentioned in your dream bike setup. I was wondering if you used the 1x set up on this climb and if not why? In the other videos you stated you could climb a wall and I was expecting to see that but the "cover" photo looks like a 2x. Love the content and the inspiration brother, keep doing what you are doing.
This gets into the weeds a bit, but my new ultimate came with a Shimano set up, which cannot be converted to a one by because Shimano doesn’t have an e mountain bike derailer. But the bike is insanely light, so I had to choose between the lightest bike I’ve ever ridden or my one by set up which would’ve worked perfectly for this route. I had my old ultimate with me as a back up, but ended up finding I was climbing fast enough to stay in the big ring on the 2x . This though, has cemented my opinion on 1x, THEY ARE AMAZING. I can’t wait to strip off this 2x shitmono and put my Sram Eagle 1x on it.
@@TheVCAdventures thanks brother. I appreciate it. I am converting mine to your 1x setup once rotor restocks. Thanks for taking the time and responding
It's crazy that you went all the way without too much discomfort, without planning weeks in advance. Most people have helpers to hand them drinks / gels and do simulations (half-Everesting). Next time, ask Canyon to send you their lightest bike and try to go for a real Everesting.
Utmost congratulations. And I personally find it rather demotivating that what I’ve long viewed as an exercise in futility has become so illogically over-regulated! Prohibiting “physics” aided efforts makes very little sense when one considers that a 30mph tailwind could provide equally significant elemental assistance throughout “standard” reps of any climb. Haven’t looked at the official rules for awhile, but perhaps exceptionally favourable conditions are also accounted for when the ride data is submitted for review and deemed to be a benefit that precludes the applicable time from being classified alongside fully validated “fair game” efforts!
@@sk8moto I never claimed that it took less effort, and every attempt obviously requires a unique amount of measured exertion, whether gauged aerobically or via a power meter. My point was that there are many more external variables besides gravity generated momentum that could be harnessed to significantly aid the rider and I’m not clear regarding exactly which if any others preclude what are technically successful Everests from being officially validated after the data has been submitted and analysed. Would a 40kph tailwind for example be effectively defined as elemental EPO, and therefor either disqualify the time achieved or cause it to be classified in a separate category from those that are recognised as wholly “legitimate”.
@@Gigadenza I think you are confused, I am the one claiming it is much easier to "mega ramp" it. You make it sound like it's equivalent to a legal effort. You wind example is ridiculous because you are coming back down on the same road and when would you have 25mph wind consistently for 8 or so hours ?! And even if you do, I will bet you the difference is negligible.
Great ride, that looked like fun. You mentioned putting a little weight and feeling good. When you were 25 pounds lighter, was it a struggle to sustain? As you're a taller guy, your current weight seems reasonable. Thanks!
Yea, I am not naturally skinny. So staying at 155ish meant fasting 18 hours a day and avoiding large amounts of protein. I loved the fasting part, that was awesome, but I wanted more strength and to be happy with my physique. I started eating 3 times a day and focusing a ton on protein. I put on about 1.5lbs of lean muscle every month for the past year. I’m fukin THICCC and way leaner, which is wild. Add weight and get leaner?
@@TheVCAdventuresI really appreciate the reply. I dig fasting too, but feel weak from fasting. When you mentioned your weight in todays video, my ears perked up. It was just what I needed to hear to start reevaluating a different program. Thanks! 🤙
Woo, did make it through Fifth Element without passing out? Have you considered the 10k Roam challenge (same website, 10,000m climbing and at least 400km in 36 hours)? Super achievable for you, I'm sure you could put together an awesome course.
I'm going to be a cyclist/TH-camr like you and Mark Lewis, I just need to get a motorcycle for my background. And some video making talent. And some cycling talent.
It’s super interesting to me now that so many people have done. And technically, I already did an Everest roam this year in Oregon. 502 miles and 37,000ft.
There is a set of rollers by my house I did this on for 1/2 an everest, comfortably managed 3500ft an hour, and could hit 4k an hour if I was hauling balls. Totally not legit, but very entertaining and rewarding. 😀
I kind misspoke on that, 180g included my breakfast, which was around 80g of protein. But I had 3 protein shakes and 2 protein bars while riding that got me the other 100g.
I’m 6’2. At my heaviest I was 230ish, and not a good 230. All fat. It took me years of slowly dropping weight and tweaking my diet to be sustainable. I was around 155-160 for a few years but recently had a goal to gain more muscle. Tips for weight loss is hard because everyone is different, but you can’t go wrong with getting objective data. Get a calorie tracker, Garmin, Apple, whoop, whatever, understand your burn rate, then track everything you eat with the free app Macros. Weight the food and don’t miss a single item. It will be annoying at first, but then you will clearly see where you can improve. Then slowly, over time, cut out and replace the high calorie junk. Soda > sparkling water will save you hundreds of calories a day. Understanding serving sizes will also help a ton. But go slow, don’t burn out, and be patient. You will get there with having good information.
Dude, thanks, appreciate you taking the time to respond. Your vids are killer and I LOVE the inclusion of your family and especially how you shout out your wife. So cool, I do the same for my wife every opportunity I have. Happy and safe holidays to you and your family.@@TheVCAdventures
Thanks Kevin, my wife is the reason I get to do dumb ass shit like ride all day on a Tuesday so I need her to know without a doubt that I appreciate her and value her time and energy.
much respect bruh. FYI, your vids are the "carrot" I'm using to get back on the bike after almost 6yrs of serious medical challenges that completely changed my life and especially my cycling "life". I went from hitting anywhere from 8 to 10,000 miles a year to riding nearly 700miles total in the past 5yrs. Now I climb on my spin bike 5days a week, hit youtube, find your vids and zone out with my goal of building up to an hour of riding. You have no idea how your vids allow "us" to just forget OUR pain for a bit and become baptised in yours. My goal is to hit an hour solid in the next 2 weeks and then do my annual NYDays on Jan 1st...a whole 12.7miles/987' of climbing. It doesn't sound like much but it'll be the longest ride I've done in YEARS and will jumpstart my cycling into and I hope through 2024. Keep doin' your thing man, I/we appreciate it. @@TheVCAdventures

Besides mine....you gots da bestest family everrrr :). Cheers bro.
Such good stuff!

Sounds like you could do the Pittsburgh Dirty Dozen for a warm up!

Thanks Kevin, my wife is the reason I get to do dumb ass shit like ride all day on a Tuesday so I need her to know without a doubt that I appreciate her and value her time and energy.
much respect bruh. FYI, your vids are the "carrot" I'm using to get back on the bike after almost 6yrs of serious medical challenges that completely changed my life and especially my cycling "life". I went from hitting anywhere from 8 to 10,000 miles a year to riding nearly 700miles total in the past 5yrs. Now I climb on my spin bike 5days a week, hit youtube, find your vids and zone out with my goal of building up to an hour of riding. You have no idea how your vids allow "us" to just forget OUR pain for a bit and become baptised in yours. My goal is to hit an hour solid in the next 2 weeks and then do my annual NYDays on Jan 1st...a whole 12.7miles/987' of climbing. It doesn't sound like much but it'll be the longest ride I've done in YEARS and will jumpstart my cycling into and I hope through 2024. Keep doin' your thing man, I/we appreciate it. @@TheVCAdventures
