KABOOOOOOM!!! A ceremoniously well kept aero. Like listening to Elvis sing the phone book or watching Einstein do his 3 times tables, I think I could watch you going round Crit City all day. It probably says more about the hinterlands of my life than anything, but there’s few things that bring me greater pleasure than a Caedmon win on Crit City!
Sounding and looking happy with your Zwifting again, Caedmon! 🎉 I know I said this the last time you dropped back down but ultimately, that is how it should be; cycling with a smile! 😊 Great win too! 🏆
Nice ride man. Thought you were cat B as well. Hard to know what’s best. Front of cat C or hanging on for dear life at the back of cat B. One is enjoyable and one is hard as hell but you do improve. Brilliant job
Thanks, yeah I’m stuck in between the two categories right now. I suppose I’ve been getting my fair share of enjoyment and suffering in each over the past few months 😅
The best way is on the Zwift Companion App. Under Events, you can filter for Events that your friends have signed up for. I usually try to sign up for a race as soon as I know I can make it. Usually 4-6PM ET on weekdays
Congratulations you are top CAT C, enjoy it while it lasts. One of those sprints is going to take you to CAT B very soon. Also, use this time to recover, your power chart looks a lot healthier, I see a lot of green and blue. You did all red for too long before being downgraded and it affected your longtime performance.
Hey congrats! Yeah, my goal in Cat B is always hang on just a bit longer each race and eventually you’ll be at the finish with the front group. Good luck!
It seems like all the people I see that get dropped a Cat always get in top 3 and the ones that get bumped in Cat are always in the last 10%, haha....That why 90% sandbag to get dropped a Cat and win races while only a few get bumped up...I feel like the ones that get bumped up rather improve as a cyclist and go against harder competition while the ones that drop care more about winning races.
Hey, it was good racing, thanks for watching again here! Yeah, someone pushed in the middle of the race there to keep it fast 😅 maybe I’ll see you in another one soon!
Thanks! Yeah, it was a slower pace for most of the race. I think that caused someone to go early on the last lap which caused everyone to scramble a bit
The frequency of your sips of water is unmatched
😂😂😂 I have to say this is a comment I’ve never gotten before. Too often?

Thanks Rob, Crit City just feels like home! I had the PU in the back of my head all race after my unceremonious drop last week 😅
LOL! 🤣🤣

Hey thanks! Yes, suffering probably makes me better, but some enjoyment is nice too every once in awhile
Congrats Caedmon 👏
Thanks!
Great sprint for the win!!!! Way to go!

Awesome job
Thanks!
Well done mate
YES bro! 800-odd watts needed to sprint competitively after working THAT hard all race. I'm a C Cat and that makes me feel sick!
It was a crazy final lap after that one guy went early 😅 fun finish!
Dude!! What a finish man🤩 when i grow up.. i want to be just like you😌 damn that finish is hawt🎉
Hey, thanks so much! Zwift wins are hard to come by, so have to be celebrated 🎉
First place! Well done.
Wow, thanks so much again for supporting the channel!!! I’m thankful and appreciate everyone who watches these videos 😃
Congrats Caedmon on the first 2024 victory!! Good timing to go and use that power up. More to come!!
Thanks! I finally times a powerup correctly 👍
Bringing back Andersen in the end killed me. Also didn't knew when to start my sprint. Hope to race with you soon!
Hey, nice racing! Yeah, that move by Anderson really shook up the race on the last lap. I’m sure I’ll see you out there again soon
Where can I find tthe races you sign up to

Big win.
I got downgraded too. C to D. I was suprised hadn’t done a race in a while.
At least in D I don’t feel like I’m about to die the whole race! 😂
Yeah, that’s exactly how I feel as well! It’s nice to not be in pain the whole race for a change 😅
Congratulations you are top CAT C, enjoy it while it lasts. One of those sprints is going to take you to CAT B very soon.

Yeah I much prefer the power charts. It’s not only more enjoyable, but also more sustainable. Thanks for the comment!
Now that Caedmon is back in C I’ll have to hop in one of these races.
I’ll see you out there!
Nice Caed. I just cat’d up to B. C is so much more fun to choose how you race. B is hang on for dear life and not have anything to sprint with
Hey congrats! Yeah, my goal in Cat B is always hang on just a bit longer each race and eventually you’ll be at the finish with the front group. Good luck!
Congratulations!
I thought you was in B Cat??
Yeah, I got demoted back to Cat C last week
FIRST!
🏆
wanna see a sprint , Cad vs Eric now
What a mad last lap. Very well done. Looks like everyone was cooked in the end an could barely manage red numbers except you. Great ride!
Thanks EZ, Anderson going early on the last lap really shook things up. That’s not something I’ve seen often at Crit City

Yeah, definitely agree. Racing in the higher category helps improve quicker, but racing in the lower category can be more enjoyable
Well done!! Nobody had an answer for your sprint. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Roy!
Congrats on the win! Excellent race strategy. What time of day are you usually racing and what time zone?
Hey thanks! I’m usually racing around 4-6PM US Eastern time (ET)
chill pace until final lap , surprisingly only the belgium guy had orange numbers too , but was to late on the power , nice sprint
Yeah, I guess it wasn’t a field of sprinters, or at least everyone was tired after chasing on the final lap!
I was in that race, got dropped after break half way through😅 well done!
Hey, it was good racing, thanks for watching again here! Yeah, someone pushed in the middle of the race there to keep it fast 😅 maybe I’ll see you in another one soon!
🎉 That’s a killer sprint, and you timed it nicely!
Thanks!
Solid sprint from nearly 300m out no less!! Nice Job!!
Nice win! Groups have been getting so fast it's really difficult to pull out a win. That group ratcheted the pace up early on the last lap.
Thanks! Yeah, it was a slower pace for most of the race. I think that caused someone to go early on the last lap which caused everyone to scramble a bit
It is super hard to win in Zwift, because if you are strong enough to win, you'll probably get bumped to the next category.
Haha, very true!
There are ways…
@@ZwiftyZwifter yeah your way , win an A cat race and get downgraded afterwards , wanna know the magic , cheers Rob
