      And if you don’t get top 10 I expect a proper roasting by BHD!

      I would like a explanation on the seat being slammed forward , does it mean the frame is incorrect? Would you slam it more if it was steeper more like a triathlon frame?

    Use me as an up vote for Dylan's videos being more exciting than watching the race in real time. Seriously I hope the other riders appreciate how much your recaps help publicize the races and riders. Now just need a second gopro for the last 30 minutes.

    @speedsociety9177 ปีที่แล้ว +96

    Great performance, your numbers are impressive! As a german viewer, I was waiting for you to mention second place finisher Paul Voss, who also recently won the The Traka 200 as well as the UCI Gravel world series race in Aachen Germany, but I guess he is not well known over in the states yet :)

    • @pmcmpc
      @pmcmpc ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I think Voss is probably the favorite for Unbound 200.

    • @mo-215

      I'm temporarily living in Germany and the riders here are FAST!!!!!!

  • @MxCraven
    @MxCraven ปีที่แล้ว +72

    I'd *love* to see a bike check on the kinds of changes you've made for different races like Unbound. It's interesting seeing how different people are setting up for the same race, but I've not seen much about different setups from the same rider for different races, even over on the vastly different courses in the UCI gravel in Europe

  • @honzabe
    @honzabe ปีที่แล้ว +44

    What a pleasant surprise to see Petr Vakoč appear on the US gravel scene. I really admired how he was able to get back after that horrific accident (six broken vertebrae).

  • @koreystephens

    1.22 VI is like a 7hr crit. Insane.

  • @tangarz5357
    @tangarz5357 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    That’s some crazy numbers. You are pushing my 2-5 minute intervals efforts for 7 hours

  • @paulgibby6932
    @paulgibby6932 ปีที่แล้ว +50

    Congrats on doing so well. Man, I can't imagine that power/speed for so many hours. It's great that you don't just talk a good game but also are a top racer. Good luck in the Unbound race.

  • @larrylem3582
    @larrylem3582 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    The ending was hilarious!!!! Backwards hat Dillon asking the hard question right into normal Dillon signing off.

    • @huges84
      @huges84 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It was a smart way to acknowledge and dodge the controversy in one move. I don’t think he should comment on it since it involves his teammate. Plus it’s just a dumb controversy. It’s a race. The winner used perfectly valid, legal and common race tactics. If you don’t like it, don’t race or figure out how to beat him.

  • @matt.rus1

    Crazy for 3USA in top 10 for a race in Hico, TX. I grew up in TX, and I have no idea where that even is.

  • @ianboltron

    That's an impressive result considering the field. Looks like that extra volume this year paid off!

  • @tccycling
    @tccycling ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I raced the 112 mile course at GL. Funny to hear talk of the first hour being chill :) I was probably in the 5th chase group behind the lead pack for the first 2-2.5 hours, completely died after that. The aid station at mile 95 had Cuban coffee, which is now my new favorite recovery drink lol
    I watched the pro finish. Couldn't believe y'all did that distance in 7 hr 12 min. Insanely fast. Awesome ride!

    You are killing it with these videos! Great footage, data and the fact you were riding with these animals is awesome. I think he would be happy. If you got a boom or lapel mic for your interview, lapel just takes the can sound out of the room. Keep it up 🔥

  • @ZenEndurance
    @ZenEndurance ปีที่แล้ว

    THANK YOU for making such good coverage from inside the race. The power numbers and race tactics are crucial for those of us that want to get better to see. Or at least understand better what was happening. So cool!

  • @vicnutt6742
    @vicnutt6742 ปีที่แล้ว

    Excellent work on the ride AND on the video! I continue to be amazed at the pace you maintained (nearly 22 mph) for 150 miles!
    I appreciate the report as one who lingered toward the back on the GL30 La Pequena. It was a really nice day with cool temperatures (early on) and an acute lack of dust.

  • @robbchastain3036
    @robbchastain3036 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Congrats on a fine finish, Dylan, and sure, any chat on tactics as they are evolving would be interesting and maybe for gravel no shame in not pulling, just do for yourself whatever's best, no rules like the wild, wild West? And I like the visibility of your sponsor logo on your helmet, you and The Feed stand out, good work with that.

      @Dylan_Cycling I already follow you on Strava.
      The stats that you post on average after your 200+ miles races are my averages on my short commutes (18 Kms), on the tarmac, when I'm in top form. Although I ride a 16 kilo bike, still that's not an excuse.

    Was thinking earlier it would be great to see a video on breathing technique. I’ve had bad asthma since birth, and heard no end of myths and legends, tried a lot of the devices (power breathe and those nose clip things that Froome endorsed for a bit), but nothing really seems to make much impact.

    Great content love to see you pushing it at a real race like this actually I was there as a lowly amateur doing the 100 and I saw you finish so strong! Funny story I was getting a beer and Ian Boswell comes cruising in fresh off the finish and i said “Damn nice work did you win?” He said, no, and I said “yeah kind of a shit sprint finish with that sharp right turn into gravel off the road,” and he replied “I was just here for the workout!” 😉
