Merry Christmas everyone. Thank you so much for your support over the past year!
Toujours des vidéos de qualité, bonne musique et thèmes vraiment bien abordé 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍
Thanks for your content. Great to hear you mention Wageningen. I lived there from 1988 until 1997 and worked at LUW. Bought my first proper bikes from Stormvogel and raced for AXA Valleirenners. Happy days.
Wageningen!! Many happy memories there. Great cycling to be had there too! 👌
Really enjoy your content! This may sound funny but I enjoy how happy you are with yourself after a big effort. Many times you look at your power curve at the end of the ride and it’s way under your best ever but you’re almost always content with effort. Sounds silly but I’m always the opposite and my mindset lead to some burnout this year. I appreciate folks like you that like progress but clearly just love riding too.
You’re a beast! Looking forward to seeing some 2025 racing on your channel 🏆💪
Thank you Andy. The power curve is indeed something that I struggled with in the past. But I surrendered to the fact that I’ll never be on the level I was before I got hit for the first time by the virus. So I take all the positives I can get meaning when I set a new power PR I am really really happy. Also riding with friends and subscribers also a very good boost voor my overall happiness. See you in Watopia!!! Thank you for your kind words!
Merry Christmas, mate. May your legs are strong and your channel is growing!
Merry Christmas to you too!! And the same for your channel. You are doing fantastic work in our little Zwift community 🙏🙏🙏
Gerben, if you hit a reindeer in the UK, it's the bike behind you that gets to eat it... :) Merry Christmas - great year of riding!
LoL!!! Merry Christmas to you too!!! 🎄
Nice to see there was actually a pace bot in your ride. In mine yesterday, Jacques never showed. Complete blood bath ensued.
The C riders in my ride where also Botless and just went nuts! :D
Same here. Did the B Ride yesterday w/o pacebot. Finished in 1:09:35 ... the A ride had a lower average W/kg
@@mumblecake251 We must have been in the same one. Rode it again today. Jacques was there this time, but those pesky "C" riders caught us just like in Gerben's video.
@@joelnace1793 lol, yes. Just saw, you won that race (no fence, so it IS a race). I came third. Totally mistimed my sprint.
Have a relaxing holiday Gerben. Thanks for sharing your Zwift experiences. It is really helpful seeing others suffering as much as me in races. See you in 2025.
Thank you so much for watching! Merry Christmas!!
Merry Xmas Gerben , all the best from a german Fan 🎄👍🍀
Frohe weihnachten!!!! :D

Gogogo! Kit is looking good!👍
Merry Christmas, Gerben
All the best for 2025
Merry Christmas to you too Shaun!!!!
Merry Christmas Gerben! Glad to see you doing the Rapha challenge too. I am currently 73 miles into the 310 mile ride. I am hoping my legs will survive the whole thing. I lost 2.5lbs on yesterday's ride so that can't go on.
GoGoGo!!!!
🎄🎁🎄🎁🎄 Merry Christmas, Gerben!
10,000 km is a good number for the year. We're on the same page there - that's been my consistent target the past 3 years - 10,000 km distance and 100,000m elevation.
2,000 subscribers is also a great accomplishment for the year. You've got me by a landslide there - I think I have more videos than subscribers 🤣 Something to fix in 2025.
Thank you! Keep at it these sub will come! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Gerben! Looking forward to riding with you more on the coming year!
We'll see each other in Watopia!!! Merry Christmas!!
Nice hat
LoL! Glad you liked it! Merry Christmas!!
Merry Christmas Gerben! Of all my subscriptions you are more or less always number one on my playlist because you puts so much great content out imo! Atleast one year subscriber to your channel from atleast poor weather country Denmark as the Neatherlands regarding the weather
Thank you so much for your kind words. Merry Christmas!!!
dir und den deinen auch ein frohes fest und guten rutsch 🎄 🍀
Danke!!! Und frohe weihnachten!!!
Merry Christmas🎉
Merry Christmas to you too!!
Merry Christmas. I did the Rapha 500 last year, my legs were toast for weeks. I'm going to pass on doing it this year. I will do the 50k ride today. My Christmas present to me. 🤣🎅
Well done. 50k is a good present :D Merry Christmas!!
Merry Christmas Gerben
Fijne Kerst ook voor jou!!
Hey Gerben.... HAPPY CHRISTMAS !!! I have been following you nearly from the beginning and your development as athlete and as TH-camr is amazing! Thanks for all your content and the time you spend doing so. Have a good one and see you next year!!! RIDE ON !!! Folkert, BTW.: I have a S-WORKS SL7... NICE!
Whooowww. That's a very nice bike. Friend of mine has one too. Very quick!!! Merry Christmas Folkert!!
Merry Christmas Gerben and all viewers. I was on C ride earlier and it was a race on the front, I sticked with the front but with no warm up it was a bad idea. Coco was left in the dust miles behind. I will try a B ride and an A ride to see if there is a difference with a C race.
Merry Christmas. We got destroyed by the C riders. They had no Pace Bot and just went for it!! :D
@ even with a pace bot in my ride, over 50 riders pushed harder and harder, last 2 laps only around 30 were still present and around 20 for final lap. I thought it was going to be a normal C ride but it seems that Zwift new power ranking cleanup and strange race dynamics got into the ride/race creating what I have experienced.
Did the same event , registered for C group, which was advertised at 2.6wkg, as this is a community ride and not a race I was hoping to ride with Coco at target pace with a large group. But no, I never found any C group at that pace and eventually found a D group, but even then they were doing surges when there were elevation. Anyway for people wanting to ride at a steady pace you are better riding with the regular pacing groups.
Every event 2 or more people is race! That’s the mindset you have to have when you sign for the event
Yes. C riders in this episodes just where botless and went for it. It was a nice little mess :D
MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!
With 105 Rpm

Nice GERBEN !!!
Merry Christmas. With more watts in 2025!! :D
@@RideWithGerben oui jen doute pas une seconde, 2025 au moins 2Wh/kg de plus pour toi, avec de l''entrainement
