and bing bong riders. Hey guys, we’re back.
I’m finally back doing some inside cycling world videos today, guys. Let’s jump straight
into it. Here we go. What do we got going on, guys? Okay, dudes. Been a while. Uh TNP, Team Not
Pogy from the Not Pog Pogy YouTube channel. Guys, I missed you. Been missing you. Uh I’ve been
so busy. You’re probably wondering where’s that Colin guy been? Where’s Inside Cycling
World been? Or maybe you’re not. Maybe just like whatever. Uh the last three weeks I’ve live
streamed my audio commentary race coverage of the tour to France every day. So, it’s been a job.
Okay, guys. I’m just fixing some stuff up here. I don’t like the way that looks right now. I think
I need to stretch that out a little bit. Actually, I think you got to go transition. Stretch the
screen. Maybe that’s going to be it. Hope I can see everything here. Yeah, it looks about
right. Just kind of looks like one of the names going to get chopped off at the top. Oh,
that’s why. Can we do that? Okay, guys. Uh, yes. Team not Pogy Championship Race. Looks like
we got about 60 in the pipe. 5×5 here right now, guys. Um, oh, and I want to do this over
here. Doing this over here, guys. Um, where is my YouTube channel stream coming through?
Let me just do this for a second, guys. Okay, it’s going to looks like it’s going to be a bit
here. And we are only two and a half minutes from the start, guys. So, what are we doing here
today? We’re doing the Muckle Yin. This is team N Pogy Summer Championship race number one. It’s the
Muckle Yin. So, it’s a modified customized version of the Muckle Yin. I just want to make sure
everything’s still going live, you guys. Uh yeah, we are live live. Uh Don’s here in the chat. Uh
Don’s a really cool dude I met uh doing the whole tour to France stuff. Guys, that was epic doing
that. Uh just so you guys know, looks like we got three sprint points at the championship sprint
with the champion sprint, the breakaway Bray, and the Clyde Kicker K segments of the Sigur
Summit. Now, I think we end up going over it a few times. So, this and the finish of the race,
I have to look really close here, is at 33.7 km. Uh, okay. I got to keep my Zift open, guys. It’s
been like a month since I’ve done this now. So, I got to make sure I’m on here. Uh, Chris Moore
from TNP, your fan view right now, dude. You are in the fan view. Let’s get this going. Let’s rock.
YouTube stream. Come on through so I can have a chat here. Yeah, that’s really weird. I’m not
seeing it from YouTube yet. Uh, there it is. Okay, so this is just in case my chat is open. Uh,
just in case there’s any of the uh, tour to France junkies in here. It’s probably going to
be a lot hard for me to chat here, but keep it coming if you can. 75 76 riders in the m mix
here. Uh, shout out to all the TMP dudes. Mixed missed hanging out with you guys. Let me get my
camera controls figured out again here. Oh yeah, here we go, guys. Here we go. I’ve been doing
everything so differently for the past month. Uh, bear with me as I kind of get back on track here,
guys. Uh, I think I’m the only person doing this community-wise, so let’s give her, boys. Down to
30 seconds to go. Are we going to see the uh the infamous patented Zift start of 12 watts per
kilo from anyone? Uh, we’re soon going to see, aren’t we? We soon will see. Let’s just see who we
got here. TMP, let’s turn this brightness up. Uh, guys, my eyes are shattered. Uh, I streamed
almost 8 hours yesterday. I streamed seven hours on Saturday. I’ve already streamed, I don’t know,
three and a half hours this morning. Boom. We’re going, guys. Let’s get it. Um, let me jump on
Chris Moore here again. Looks like I lost him. And we’re off, folks. We are off. Seen some aggressive
starts already. Let’s see how this plays out. We got a guy named EP here. Just let’s get this
figure. Let’s get settled in. We’re We’re in Zift. Uh, I know there’s a cool dude named Dawn watching
right now. So, Don, uh, I don’t think he does any inside cycling yet. I think it’s in the near
near future, guys. In the near future here. So, let’s show Dawn what it’s all about. Guys are
going out hard already. Who is off the front there already in first place? I thought I saw a Welsh
a Welsh flag up there. Look at this. Look at this dude already. Alled Jones here. That has to be
him. uh the Welsh flag. He’s got uh I asked him a while ago, uh dude, are your parents Welsh? And he
goes, yeah, how’d you guess? Someone said he had a very Welsh name. I think All stopped into I think
it was one of the first two or three races I did, sorry, the live streams I did for uh the tour to
France. So, awesome to see him there. Saw quite a few people pop in and out. I know it’s a lot
to cover, uh, but I had such a blast doing that, guys. Probably one of the funnest things I’ve ever
done, uh, being invol involved with cycling. Like, just insane. I’m I’m I’m messing with my controls
here. I’m so used to doing it. Uh, another style. Let’s zoom out a little bit, guys. Get a good
look, a good gander at all the cyclists here. See, we got a couple riders off the front right
away. Let’s see who that is up there. Now, Ella Jones went for that first. I think that was the
first champion sprint. It’s kind of at the very beginning of the course. So, there will be points
accumulated there towards the green jersey up the front right now. Two gas. I’ve seen these guys run
a lot. In fact, I think TNP, let me know if I’m right or not. I think you guys did a ladder league
race against these guys. Not sure if it was this uh one of these riders here. Kind of love this
close and action mode. It’s kind of all shaky cam. Really liking that. Uh Tula Nichols here. Hey,
Tika. Welcome aboard. It’s Tula Nichols here guys. uh is from France. I think she was traveling up to
stage 21 of the of the stage uh sorry the tour to France yesterday. Was that yesterday? Wow, I’ve
lost sense of time. So, here’s uh B. Lemos here for the two gas race. He’s a Portuguese writer
and I think almost everyone on this team uh is Portuguese. Uh it’s obviously based out of there.
EP here, ZR Scots. Uh and this is a championship race for TNP. So, I’m assuming what they’ll
do. This is how I would do it. Anyways, it’s a race. Someone’s going to win it. 123 the podium.
Whatever it may be, guys. Nice power here. Sitting a lot of 270 3.3 watts per kilo out here out of
Lemos from Tugas. Let’s take a look at Chris Moore here. Where’d he go? Here’s Chris Moore pushing
four watts a kilo. 3.74 watts a kilo. Kind of different getting back to this guys because
when I was watching the tour to France feed, I’m watching a video. got some action shots going
on. I’m watching a video and guys, I was actually using Bike Terra to track the positions of all
the pro cyclists. Power is not available to me for an obvious reason, right? It’s the the pros at
the elite level. So, it looks like we got a couple of riders drifting off the back already, guys.
You know, I check everyone out here. We’re going to jump back a little bit. Front group looks to
be close to say 50 riders. Yeah, about 50 riders are there. Then we’ve got a couple of riders just
drifting off the back here. So I’m going to say front group is 51. Some riders just hanging on.
We got a rider here uh K S Cellular. Let’s give them a thumbs up at the back here. Awesome stuff.
Seac, this is Coach Lack here for TMP. Olly Moore, dude. Olly Moore, guys. Um, jump on YouTube,
look for the not Pogy channel and check out his channel. So guys, how long has team TNP been
around? like when did it first get going? I’ve noticed there’s a Facebook page for it now. 300
400 watts here. Uh this is Oymore putting in uh close to five watts per kilo. Look at the Pelaton
stretching out here, guys. Let’s have a quick look at this. It is really stretching out already.
We’re going to just zoom out a little bit. Yeah, this part here. I know when I ride this uh course,
it does get very stretched out through through these roundabouts. Yeah, the professional camera
control here, guys. Professional. Uh, let’s give you a little overhead view from the helicopter
cam. Just calling here in the helicopter cam. Uh, so yeah, Tula Nichols here. Not what you were
expecting. Tika, I did the tour of France fems this morning, guys. We need more eyeballs on the
tour to France fems. That’s what we need. Uh, trying to, you know, promote cover more women’s
cycling here. Going to bounce back. Here’s coach lack again. Wow, the front end is really stretched
out, guys. There must be some absolute watts going off at the front, guys. Looks like a galaxy rider
there. Okay, moving up. Big bunch at the front here. Let’s just have a quick look. Cycling
dad. This dude from TNP, tired cycling dad, I do remember your name before it even shows up
on the screen, dude. Here it’s panning across now. You can watch that replay later and see
that for yourself. Uh that front group, guys, has been absolutely smashed to pieces, shattered
to oblivion. Uh I bet you this front group now We’re probably down to 30 riders. Not even 30
riders. I just jumped to 30 first place there. Oo, some big gaps to be jumped here, guys.
You got to get on there now. Push, push, push. Now, look at this. And they’re doing it
as I cheer them on. 4560 watts. 555 watts here out of this E caro guy, the Italian rider here.
Dude, nice watt bombs there. Uh, and that’s just really pushing hard in that 53 juicy 11 you
got mixed up there on your bike. I love it, dude. Caro goes right to the front here. That big
huge push he did there. Heart rate ripping at 168 right now, guys. I think I was banging 185 this
morning. I’m so out of shape right now doing that tour to France stuff. Like, I just took 3 days
off. Someone in my chat asked me this morning, uh, what does it feel like after taking three days
off, guys? You know, you know, 3 days off the bike when you’re used to doing it every day feels like
taking two weeks off. Oo, again, Caro kicking out some big watts here. Arunos, big watts, too. TMP
rider. I’ve seen this guy a lot. Lots of seven and eight watts per kilo here, guys. Wow. I haven’t
said that in so long. I’m stumbling over my words. Today was a late start for me, guys. Uh I’ve been
getting up at 3:00 every morning to uh do my tour to France coverage, and I’ve loved every second of
it. Uh when I whine, not whining, just saying it’s been an effort. Look at this dude here. Cartright
for Coalition. One of the Coalition boys jumps in here. I love this. There’s been a little bit
of battles going on lately in the latter league races between Coalition and TMP. Some of the best
battles I’ve seen. One of the coolest dudes we met from there is Colin Coats. Uh, awesome dude.
I see him all the time. He’s dropped into my live stream for the tour to France virtually every
day. So, love it, dude. Lee Mane. This guy is an absolute savage on a bike. Uh, yeah, not surprised
to see him right here at the front. super hitter, capable of dropping the mother of all bombs at any
second, guys. So, keep an eye on this dude. Uh, we got 37.7 km to race. Super high intensity
racing here over in Zift. Uh, jumping into the chat. Awesome to see here. Uh, Tula Nichols says
right here, “It’s all good.” So, Tical Nichols only knows me through watching Tour to France
coverage, guys. And and this is for all the dudes that are going to see this later. Actually,
I’m live streaming it. Maybe you’re watching it now. Who knows? Uh, I’m trying to see more. Ah,
MH Haze here for TMP just falling off the back, too. Still working super strong here, though. Four
and a half, five watts per kilo. After a while, you just can’t, you just can’t do it anymore. And
trust me, I know it. I know it big time. Uh, T. Adams, Elmine, that’s Lee. Uh, we got Cart right
here for Coalition. C. Wang. Okay. I’ve seen a Swedish rider before for TMP. TMP is very uh tired
cycling dad. We’re going to bounce up again here. See all these little uh sparkly things going
off the confetti? That’s people setting personal records. Guys, I’m going to just jump to an
overhead view here so you can see it. Front of the race on the left hand side of the screen
right now. Uh it looks like that front group is maybe 15 riders, maybe 20. Let’s take a look back.
Check this out. This EAB2 guy here uh looks like a Spanish rider has both the KM jersey right now and
the uh well that’s not true because someone else has it up here. So, I’m not sure what’s being
displayed there right now. Are we starting the climb now? The Muckle Yin, guys. I’ve done this.
I’ve got the route badge for it. Haven’t been here in quite a while. We got Nessie in the water over
beside us there. Let’s see. Uh, just a little bit of a camera view over top. Fifth place. Let’s get
right to the front with this Irish rider here, Killian. Uh, here’s Ebaby or Eab. Lots of thumbs
ups going on here, guys. I see a Canadian rider right there, too. EP here. EP from Canada, dude.
Rocket. JK Hill. We got team VDB from VDB from the Beasts. Tuga. Here’s that Tugas rider
again. We watched him earlier. B Lemos. Uh, but I love I love your comment here, Tula. It’s
all good. I think I’m going to go check out some indoor trainers. So, here’s someone from France,
guys, who gave me so much knowledge on France. Uh, love the I love the shaky cam there. I love that.
Uh, told me where all the places were in France. watched my stream almost every day. Travel to
Paris for the final stage. What an incredible stage 21 for me. Vout Vanart absolutely destroying
the field. That’s what I wanted to see. Uh she’s going to go check out some indoor trainers now.
Uh we also have Dawn. I know he’s probably in the stream. He’s on a spin bike right now
just checking out what this is all about. Uh McGill staking and chains. Colin Coats is a
fantastic racer, dude. He’s a fantastic dude. Uh, Tical here is asking, “What do we recommend for
trainers?” Tical, there’s so many, but if let’s say I was starting out brand new, fresh, getting
into indoor training, I would honestly just look at probably going for like a Wahoo Kicker Core,
probably some of the best built machinery. I have a Tax Neo2T, which is like a level up from it,
but I don’t think you need to spend that much. I think a Tax Neo2T is probably $1,200. I think
you can get into a Wahoo Kicker Core for probably $400 to $500. Right in that range somewhere there.
Uh really good if you’re going to if you’re going to go to Zift. Um very compatible with the Zift
Cog and you’ll learn all about the stuff if you look into it. So you’re actually looking at Zift
racing here. These are real dudes just like me. Uh I rode this morning already, guys. I’m trying
to get more consistent again here. Let me jump out here. I know I’m not I’m not doing much good
on my camera work here today, but we’re going to get into it. Seeing some great names at the front
here. Cartright looks really strong. Uh so yeah, we’ve got McGill here saying that uh Colin Coats
is a fantastic racer. Dude, he’s a fantastic guy all around. He was in my chat every day first
thing in the morning riding on Zift super early uh before he go to do a 48 hour work shift. Uh he
was probably there at least half of the stream. So really appreciate him. Don here cool is saying
cool stuff. Don, it’s so easy to get into this. Uh you get yourself a trainer and like I always say
to people guys, it’s starting to rip here now. We are on a climb. You can see the climb profile at
the top of the screen. That’s the gradient they’re going up now. They are absolutely feeling every
bit of this gradient here. It kicks really hard. Little quick five 6% kick. And these aren’t when
I say that this isn’t a real road. It’s not it’s not a real road. Uh, this is a course that’s been
designed by Zift probably for really good racing conditions. That’s why you’re seeing these little
ups and downs, giving guys a chance to rest here, maybe attack, then it kicks again. Rest, kicks
again. There’s actually a couple of real ringading dong dandies coming up where I think we kick to
about 12% per I was going to say paracity, guys. Oh my, I don’t think I’m retired as a geologist
yet. Pocity is a key indicator in rocks. Here we go. 11 12% right there. 13%. They’re in those two
little flashy areas. If you look at the profile at the top, there’s flashing pulsing areas. Uh coming
up some guys, I saw Dan Kent in the start. Uh I don’t see Ray McCaffy here. There is two races
for the championship series. Great turnout here. We got 86 riders in the mix. TMP, you’re doing
something right. You are doing something right. Uh I’d say one of the favorites right now because I
know him quite well. Uh and not because I know him quite well is this guy right here, Lee Maine. This
guy’s an absolute savage on the bike. Ar Munoz, very strong as well. He’s pushing to the front,
chasing after this dude up here for Sissu. Uh, lights up the screen with the feather. He’s
dropping a feather for those of you who don’t. Close to 400 watts here, guys. This guy is pushing
hard. 7 watts a kilo here. This guy must be under 60 kg. Yeah, he’s he’s right on 60 kilos, this
dude here. Oo, Adar. That’s all I can see for him for Sissu. I know SISU is a big team. So, this is
the Cigur Summit here. So, we’re going to go over it. I think I think we go over it three times.
I’m sorry, guys. I mean, I didn’t do much of my research. Man, this guy’s pushing hard. Six watts
a kilo all the way up this hill. We’ve got JK Hill here. Uh here he is right here. I’m just going to
call this guy JJ. It’s probably Jeff. We’re going to go with JJ as in Jonah Jameson. Uh he rides for
Level Racing. There’s three or four riders worth. We got T here from the beasts Belgian rider. We
got T. Adams from TNP. Oo, who’s T. Adams? Who is TMS? Drops 12 watts a kilo here. He’s going for K
points, guys. He’s going for the K points. That’s what he’s doing. Uh, and so the finish line, which
I know is at 37.3 km, is about 300 m past. So, it’s going to be at 30 it’s going to be at 37
km the the top and then it’s going to be another 300 m. So, that’s what I’ll be looking for at the
end. You know, I get punted to the real world. Got the fans on the side of the road here. Overhead
shot. Riders descending now. Where’s our first place rider? He’s on the next switch back ahead,
guys. They’re all going in opposite directions. They’re trailing behind him now. Let’s have a
little look back from this dude right here. See what we can do. We’re going to zoom out. Get up
high. Have a little look back. I hate when that pops up on the screen. Now, the Pelaton dynam the
pack dynamics, Pelaton dynamics and Zift favor the pack. They’ve got so much momentum on their side
and they should be able to pull this rider back. Cruising downhill here. 270 watts when he hits the
bottom. He’s straight on the power when he hits the flats. Lee Maine second place at the moment.
Lee Main and Munoz here. Uh Munos. Oh yeah, Munos, dude. Sorry again. Uh Munos, I butchered uh where
he came from. He’s a Chilean rider obviously here. Lee main for TMP. So they’re used to riding
together. Strong strong riding here. Four and a half, five watts a kilo all the way through
here. People dropping the aerodynamic boost. Uh, okay. So yeah, Tika Nichols here saying,
“Thank you very much.” Mercy coupoop. Derek Mack, uh, shout out our group plus 19 seconds. Okay.
Who’s Derek Mack? Derek Mack, dude. I’m coming to find you, bro. You got it in the chat. It’s going
to happen, dude. Let’s check out Derek Mack. Uh, okay. You’re 16 seconds back. I might have
missed that, dude. I’ll have to find you here quick. I’ll I’m going to go through the entire
field, guy. Guys, I do this every time. We got lots of time here in every race video I’ve done.
Ruby bike terra my whoosh, including Zift. I will go through the entire field. So, what I’m going
to do right now, I’m going straight to the back, guys. There’s so many riders out here getting it
done. Don’t Don’t worry about this guy at the back here. He’s not important. He’s just Yeah, don’t
even worry about him. Uh this dude here, G10B ASUS Welsh rider bouncing up 11 seconds ahead. Uh
we got TS here, German rider, J Peters. J Peters, check this out, dude. Handbike now. Jay Peters,
SSCC team. Uh I love seeing guys like this probably, you know, probably legitimately running
a handbike. I love seeing this kind of stuff. Uh Jay Peters, just so you know, I’m I’m probably
going to be involved again with the Project Echelon events over on My Whoosh. Project Echelon
runs a continental level team in the US. They’re actually racing in Europe right now. I heard
from the director through the week, uh Eric G here. Good job, Eric G. Look at this. He’s got
his Scotty in his back pocket. And Dwarnick here, uh from Canada, bouncing up to Mendes and McKver.
Check these guys out. Conway here riding solo 4 seconds ahead. Uh ooh look at these Danes. We
got we got a bunch of Danes here going up the climbs guys. So these guys are going up the
uh cigar summit for the first time. The other guys have already blasted over the top guys. 86
riders sure. These are the kind of juicy numbers I like guys. Juicy. Uh we got the Danes here out
in strength. Bloom Falsson. There’s four of them here. I wonder if they know each other. DP is
German rider here. Bouncing our way up. Bendix, Deep Payne, Bartok. I’m still looking for uh Derek
Mack. Tony, great to see some TMP riders up at the pointy end. Oh, there’s a couple up there anyways,
dude. There’s a couple up there. Bouncing up to D pay here. Yeah, I like this. It’s a good spread
of riders. People have carrots to chase. So, Dane here. Uh 9.6K in gets a thumbs up.
Riding. Riding really nice. 2.5. I think that’s all I did today. I think I rode 2.5 watts
per kilo. I did a short 23k ride in Portugal. Uh, so I was banging out Ruby today. El Collins,
Bardog, you guys probably seen that Ruby bought out Be Cool. I’m not sure why, but they did. Uh,
Gbadger, MB, Carvalo, Portuguese rider here. He loves tiles. Whatever that means. Loves tiles. Are
you a tile collector, dude? Is that what it is? Okay, they’re bombing over the top L here.
Ger LMM uh German rider Voss Mariana Voss uh Mariana Marian Voss looking awesome at the tour
to France fems. Guys, check it out if you can. I’m streaming it every morning right now. It’s nine
stages. It ends next Sunday. Let’s get into it, folks. If you can jump in, just turn it on. Give
it a like. I can get it out to more people. Uh I really like the ladies to show up. We want more
women’s coverage. We need more women watching these events. Uh there’s one girl in there,
one lady, one woman in there. Uh Mton on here. Peacocks. Just going to start bouncing forward
now, guys. Beach. Oh, there’s a nice group out here working together. I like seeing stuff
like this. These guys have found their nice little group now. So, say you’re sitting at home
and you’re like, well, I don’t want to get blown out of the water because whatever. I’m going to
think that. Oh, here’s Ollie Moors right here. So, uh here he is. Ollie is not Pogy. He is not Pogy,
aka not Pogy. R Miller as well, Canadian. So, he’s probably good for an extra 30 watts here. Uh F
disk, P disk. They’ve all found the DOS, the Dinos team. I’ve seen these guys uh WTRL TTT racing. You
find your own little group and you ride with them. It’s not just you falling off the back and getting
obliterated. You’re going to find groups to ride with. So, that’s what they’re doing. They’re all
going to take turns. There’s drafting here, guys, just like what we see at the tour to France. You
can come do that inside, guys. Who thinks I should be promotional guy for inside bike riding? How
about that? And Bella kind of riding solo here up this little kick. This is a tough little
kick on the little curly Q roundabout. Uh, we got a lot. We got a couple of tribe riders
here. I don’t know if I know this team. Tribe solo hitting the feather. Susa, we saw this dude
earlier. Uh, Cyberneler, I’m still looking for uh Derek Mack. Dude, I don’t know where you are right
now. I’m I’m still trying to Here’s Dan Kent. Uh, TMP. Dan does the majority of putting stuff
together. Uh, constantly uh messaging people, stay on top of the Discord, staying on top of
Facebook. Coach Lack is another TMP rider right here. Gleon for Tribe. So, you can see they’re all
sticking together here. Then it looks like we got a New Zealander here. New Zealander here. And we
got an Australian here. My eyes getting better, folks. My eye is getting better. Got a couple.
So Sinclair looks Australian. And I would say Darren here. Let’s take a look at him again.
Uh when I click on him, Sissu Galaxy Racer, DMac from Scotland there. Moving right up. Chris
Moore here. Leading out this group. Got a nice little bunch here. Um do this again, guys. Have a
look. So, as you can see, it’s not just the whole front team’s gone. So, if you’re brand new
to this, you’re sitting at home going, “What is this all about, guys? There’s that E carinal
guy. This guy’s really strong, too. Just do it. Just get on your bike and just do it. The first
day, yeah, you’re probably going to suck. That’s the reality of it. Uh, your butt’s probably going
to hurt. Yeah, your hands are going to hurt. Your feet are going to hurt. You’re going to be sweaty.
Uh, you’re going to be why you ever thought about doing this?” And then you’re going like, “Oh, I
want to do it again.” You’re going to get into fun little groups like this. Uh pushing 400 watts.
This part’s really not that fun watching Chris Moore here for TMB. This is where it feels like
the heart your heart’s going to blow out of your chest. That’s how you get stronger. Pogy, Yonas,
Vout, all those guys, they’re not saying, “Yeah, man. I don’t want to push my heart over 100.” They
want to smash it. They want to get stronger. Guys, I got to get moving up here now. Here’s Wangheim.
Tired cycling dab for TMPs right there. Uh, we got the Voss MM. Okay, it’s bouncing around right now.
I got to get to the front. Uh, where’s Mr. Lee Mane here? EP was doing good later. Uh, earlier,
I think. Fan view him. Yeah, here we go. You could see riders coming the other way. So, sometimes
when I’m looking at the leaderboard on the Hey, how does this look? Anyways guys, I think I might
have been screwing this up for you here. Yeah, you know what I’m going to do? Nah, I don’t want
to do that here. What I’m going to do first off, let’s make my dumb face smaller. Uh, we’ll do
that. Then I’m going to move this over here and we’re going to pop. This is where we normally
do it, guys. Uh, this is all because of my turf to France setup, guys. Now, you can see the map
there properly. So, that’s the location of the riders bouncing back in here. Uh, sixth place.
Let’s take a look at our front end group of super hitters right here. Sorry, I just did it again.
I bounced too far. Ah, I got to hit I got to jump to fan view someone again. Fan view here. This is
the front end, guys. Front end’s right here. And what do we have? Maybe let me do a manual count
here. By that I mean just take a wild guess. 15 riders. Maybe something like that. I think
we have about 15 riders in this group. Yeah, I’m scrolling pretty fast there. 13 riders, maybe.
Okay, this guy seems strong, too. This Spanish rider here. 14 riders in this group. Uh, this
name here, uh, seems very familiar to me. Uh, Ko, guys, is this someone I should really know?
I think this is someone I should know. Uh, I’m hoping someone can tell me here. Uh, jumping
into the chat again. Uh, go tribe from Noah Henley. Hey, I know Noah. Uh, Noah’s helped me out
a few times. Up the tribe. Yeah, we got I’ve seen at least two tribe riders here. Uh, I’m seeing H.
Como here. Is this Is this guy’s name’s Hayden Ko? If so, I’m horrified right now. Uh, Sam Shepens,
Project Echelon. That’s a biggie. Yeah, dude. Uh, and Sam Shepens, Belgian rider there himself. Uh
Sam, what did you think of votes win yesterday at the tour to France? Just such a gutsy move.
Smashing it in the cobbles. Guys, go take a look at my video yesterday. I just said if there’s any
person’s wheel I would want to follow down wet, sketchy cobbles and and hope I could do what
he’s doing. Well, Venard, I mean, bike master, handling master extreme. Poggy’s the greatest, but
I bet you when it comes to bike handling skills, I mean, Val could just school them. Him and Machu
Vanderpool. So, guys, it’s all I’ve done is live and breathe cycling commentary the last few weeks
here. Really nice strong group here. I think we’re down to 10 11 riders here. JK Hill here looking
really strong, too. 12. Okay, so maybe about 15 riders still. I’m afraid to go too far back.
Actually, I will jump to KOMO here. 15 riders in this group. This is the absolute hitters group
right here, guys. Let’s take a little overhead view of them. Doing that. 15 riders. So, now I
believe we’re climbing up the backside of Sigur Summit. I think that’s what we’re doing here. I
think if I hit the map, I can zoom it out a little bit. Yeah, you can see here we’re coming from the
other side. This is the easier side. uh steeper on the other side, but we still climb up it. Uh let’s
see if we can see anyone in the distance behind us here. I think it’s a pretty good gap. It looks
like it’s about a 30 second gap. And ooh, watts going off now, guys. Watts are going off now. Uh
let’s get on the riders here. Watts are going off. You can see the sprint to the summit already.
Someone I don’t know who got through there first. This is the sprint. This is the K point. So
there’s K points. You can see Sagur Summit south. And okay, we’re just going to keep going here,
guys. Get this all figured out. Watching H Como and I’m going jump back to my chat and see if
I’ve got any knowledge here. Uh Project Echelon, that’s a biggie. Oh, yeah. So, Sam, I got a
message. I did Project Echelon’s Echelon Racing League on my whoosh last year. Uh I did all of the
stages. I did the uh US Esports Championships for the age groups. I did the Canadian age groups
and I did the elites last year for them. So, uh, Eric Hill reached out to me, random message
through the week last week and said, “Hey, Colin, dude, can you do this again? Let’s talk. I’m
on a plane. I’m flying to Belgium right now. I just found the race on YouTube that they were
competing at. No commentary. It’s terrible.” Uh, so I’ll have to do some commentary for that.
Uh, yeah, Project Echelon, they’re a real team, guys. I think they’re like I saw something. I
think they might be the highest ranked team in the US right now. So, they’re in Europe racing
right now. Uh Sam, don’t they have Ryan? Don’t know his last name, but he’s super strong. South
Cal Champion, too. Dude, I’d have to look into it. I don’t know enough about the the race team.
The team’s pretty big. And some of their I think kind of more junior guys or guys starting out.
Arm Muno still in this hitters group here. Lee Maine still in this hitters group here. Cart rate
for Coalition. Khen for RWBE Sports. Tokv Dorn uh Tokov Danish Rider. Dgroom from the UK. Lots
of nationalities represented here. And N McLaclin from Canada. Who’s this dude? Let’s check out this
bro. And also EP for Canada. So this dude here, bro, don’t know where you’re from. Uh so
yeah. So we’ve seen the tribe. I’m gonna bounce back too here, guys. Just want to see
this uh what we’ll do right now cuz 37.7 km. So I can jump back right now. Look at this guys.
This front group of 15 has a 45se secondond lead over this Polish rider here. Uh looks like he’s
riding strong by himself. Currently pushing just under 300 watts. Almost four watts a kilo. Oh,
dude. He’s got a Halo bike. Oh my good golly. Uh dudes, I’ve never seen a halo bike. I’ve
never seen a Halo bike out in the wild. Uh hopefully it’s a legit Halo bike if you guys know
my drift. That is Which one is that? That’s the Specialized. That’s the one I’m working towards.
So guys, what’s a Halo bike? Uh Zift introduced this introduced this to the platform a couple
months back. This is K K Santanski. Seranski. Just so good with the Polish names, guys. Uh 45
seconds back from that guy’s riding all solo by himself on that Halo bike. They now have five
levels of upgrades for the bikes. So you can get better bikes as you level up and you get
money in Zift. You get drops. That’s how you buy better bikes. I do want to go back to
the front just to see what’s going up. We got a rider off the front. We do have a rider off
the front now. Is that a rider they’re catching? No, it’s E maybe two for Spanish rider dropping
10 and a half watts a kilo attacking uh one of the climbs here. And we’re going to have a nice
little peak on this dude right here. Let’s give him a little show here. Oh, the sparkly wheels
going off, guys. Sparkly wheels going off. Yeah, this is a K1. I think is this the Champions? I’m
not even sure. The Clyde. It’s Clyde Kicker. Clyde Kicker, guys. Then I think the Champions
Sprint though is just around the corner. So Clyde Kicker that time went to E maybe too.
Uh Jeff Cahill uh looks like he set a personal record. Lee Maine is right there too in third
place. Cartright for Coalition. Uh I’d love to know who this cartright dude is. I’m going to
have to talk to my inside source Colin Coats uh over at Coalition Xenon. I think it is
bouncing back again, guys. Yeah, dude. Yeah, dude. Sam Shepens. I know, right, bro? Uh wow.
Ko is is in this. Yeah, guys, if that’s really H KO there, like mind absolutely blown. TMP, you
absolutely smashed it. Uh, guys, and guess what? Community racing is fantastic. It doesn’t
always have to be just elite, elite, elite, uh, once a week. Uh, I love I love doing community
racing. I’ve met so many cool people. I get little backtories on You can see the Chase group coming
right now. Uh, does EAB2 think he’s going to ride 15 kilometers by himself? He has hit the draft
boost. He wants to waste that before he goes to the next sprint point, which I think is not too
far from here. So, we’ve got Okay, guys. I just jumped too far again. Jump to this guy. Yes, dude.
EP, you’re killing it for me, whoever you are. Uh, you’re the guy I’m jumping back to every time.
You can see AB2 just up ahead of us here. Uh, the hunt is on, guys. They’re at kilometer 23
here. Emma Glocklin Munoz from TNP here. Uh, Udar looked U Adar. Here’s the champion sprint coming
up. I think, guys, right here. I think it’s down this stretch here. So, they will be contending for
sprint points here. You can see the green banner up ahead. Uh, the one rider is going to go through
you. You’re going to see some orange numbers light up on the right hand side here. Jeff’s dropping
12 watts a kilo. A Williams is going for 9.6 watts a kilo here. It’s going to get really
stretched out. Guys, I need a drink of water. These days have been insane, guys. Waking up at
3:00 a.m. Heart rate monitors turned on over here. Look how quickly the feel stretched out. I want
to get back to this the chat. Uh Sam here. Great eyes, Sam. So glad you’re here. Como is That’s
what I was thinking. I’m like, are you kidding me? Uh Zift legend Ko was ranked number one on Zift in
2019. Derek Matt, great coms, dude. Yeah, awesome, dude. Derek, thanks for being here. Uh, dudes,
I love doing this. I need you to drop some likes on the video because my real life streaming videos
absolutely just blew up over the last three weeks. I want this stuff to blow up because this is what
I want to do. I want all the Swift racers go, “Yeah, we need this dude to do a race commentary.”
I just have a lot of fun doing it. Uh, if I can make it my new full-time job, I’ll do
it. No problems with that. Do something that you love. This is what I love doing. So, looks
like we got a couple riders up the road here, guys. Let’s see who it is. Mr. Maine. Mr.
Anderson. So, that’s the voice I’ve got in my head as I say Mr. Maine. Whenever I say Mr. before
your name, that’s what’s going on in my head. You know what I’m talking about, right? You know
what I’m talking about, right? Mr. Anderson. So, we got this level rider here, uh, JK Hill. I
think I called him JJ. and Elmain Lee. Then we got DGroom pushing up trying to bridge his
way across here. Six watts a kilo. Nice move, dude. Nice move. Looking so aggressive and bold.
Decked out in solid pink. I love it. Cartright’s looking like he’s trying to get up there, too.
Give him some assistance. T. Adams from TMP. I I actually don’t know who T. Adams is. Maybe he’s
a new rider. TMP. If I don’t know who you are, T. Adams, I apologize. Maybe I’ve covered you
before. I’m not sure. Uh definitely know Arunos. It is stretching out here, guys. The heat’s on.
Uh, you know, we’re 33 minutes into this. Uh, pushing this these kinds of numbers like you’re
getting fried. Fried alive. So, looks like yep, just two off the front here. Let’s have a little
gander back. So, Lee Main. So, anyways guys, those hollow bikes I saw earlier, that Polish rider,
I’m going to jump back to him. All the bikes are upgradeable now. five levels of upgrades, which
just basically means do a bunch of climbing. Unlock, unlock, unlock, unlock, fully upgraded, or
do a bunch of distance. That’s what I’m doing. And once you do all three, you got to pay to unlock
them, too. Then you can pay even more money, like 20 million or something. 20 million drops to
unlock a Halo bike. There’s only three new Halo bikes. I guess they still call the Tron bike a
Halo bike. I don’t even know if you’ll see a Tron bike in this race. It used to be the only bike
you would ever see. Yeah, I do see a Tron bike back there. Let’s bounce back. Uh, who’s riding
it? I think it’s the guy that’s all in pink. It is Mr. Pink Pinky Tuscadero. Here, uh, pink and blue
just riding in level 20 gear, too. Riding the uh, Tron bike. The Tron bike used to have a
climbing advantage, I think, is what it was. I only unlocked my time my Tron bike second go
around on uh Zift. I I went away from Zift for three and a half years and rode Ruby. So,
you can see there’s no one near them. I’m going to have to go back quite a ways for me to
find. Okay, I do not want to touch any name on screen right now because they’re going to be
minutes behind right now. There’s Lee Maine. Okay, here’s a second group. Is No, this is
that same group. Here he is. This dude here is riding on a very hard to get bike. So, if
you want to unlock this Specialized Halo bike, which is like super duper, these were all bikes
that were designed and never put into production. There’s a Specialized one. There’s a Penella one.
The Penorella one looks like to me like it was a real bike back in the day. The Canon A1 is a bike
and the front wheel is like five or it’s like four or five rollerblade wheels. Uh I don’t even know
how you could ride that, but uh it would just be cool to see out here. So, I’m going to get back
to the front here. EP is always the guy to go to. Eab 2’s up there as well. Let’s see what’s going
off on the front. Um oh, okay, back to EP again. So guys, if you ever want to watch, you got your
fan view. You just tap on your fan view of riders that you know, T. Adams for TMP here. TMP’s got at
least three riders in this front group right now. Uh jumping into the chat. Yeah. So, uh I think
it’s Hayden Ko Como. Uh he’s an absolute beast. I I got to find him in this group here where
he went to. Uh let me do the chat, guys. Wow, so many people here. Holy crap, dudes. Yeah, guys,
number one thing right now, if you’re watching, just smash the like button. Smash it because then
my videos go to more people. It’s been so awesome doing the tour to France races, uh, the Tur
France fe now. I’m putting a lot of time into it. There was a time through the week all these
dudes jumped in from the Philippines. They had their stream shut down. It was probably an illegal
stream. And so, next video suggested is little old Colin at Inside Cycling World. Uh, and my stream
is fully legit. I’m not showing video. I’m only showing video clips that I’m allowed to, which is
taking me a while to figure out. Uh, let me just light this up, guys. I’m really struggling to see
here. Uh, probably super right now. I am the only Don. I am the only rider representing the Foster
Wheeler Wellers Wheeler Wheelers Cycling Club of Morristown, New Jersey. So, Don, I think, is
pedaling along watching uh the stream uh riding a spin bike. Thanks, Derek. Again, he says, “Great
coms.” Uh, Ko I believe shows up a lot in races. That rough track cycling participant as well.
Super strong rider. Yeah, just when I see the name guys, I do know the names of people. I don’t
know everyone. Lots of good uh power off going over here. Orange numbers, not red numbers. I keep
saying that over and over. Uh, lot of draft people are using up their uh power powerups right now.
And let’s take a look here. Do we have the full group here? T. Adams from TNP. Dude, don’t know
who are, but great ride. This Canadian dude too. Mlaughlin, Killian here. I think it’s Killian for
RW Sports. Udar for the Beast here. TVDB kind of reminds me of MVDP. Ar Munoz for TMP as well. Got
to keep moving up, guys. Uh, look at this dude. Look at this dude at the front again. Mr. Man with
Jeff Cahill here. These two are off the front, guys. Off the front by themselves. Solo manual
mano battle here. Great job, uh, JK Hill. Okay, we’re 28.9 km, guys. We’re going to 37 km.
Uh, looks awesome. Sam Shepard is good. Uh, I’m watching, re-watching later tonight. Don’t
forget guys, too, there’s a second race tomorrow, same time. I’ll do that one as well. Uh, looking
forward to it. Uh, Chain Breakers is to Hey, brothers and sisters. John Mick here. John
Mick, hi Colin. I just signed up to Zift, but it’s asking for a power meter and cadence, but
I don’t have any. Uh, dude, what kind of trainer do you have? Do you have what kind of smart
trainer do you have? It should look There’ll be a power hookup. You just click it there. Cadence,
it should find Cadence almost itself. So, JK here, Kahill here sitting off the front at 5 and a half
watts per kilo. Uh, I was going to say I just saw the power drop for Lee here, but now he’s back
on. He’s just coasting downhill a little bit. So, as we go through that banner, guys, at 37.3
km, you’re going to see me rapidly jumping back. I try to just stick with the riders as they get
so close to the finish line because if I don’t, if I follow them through the banner, 400 watts
here right now, guys, unbelievable. Uh, Lee’s heart rate. Oh, yeah, that shaky cam. Is that
new, guys? That seems new to me. It’s like some kind of shaky action cam. Like I’m in the middle
of a gunfight or something. This is a gunfight, guys, right here. Uh Lee’s pushing five watts a
kilo. Look and spelt at probably just over 70 kg, maybe 73 kg, dude. So good. Uh yeah, John Mack, I
just need to or John Mick, I just need to kind of know what kind of trainer you have. Do you
have a smart trainer? Uh Sam Shepins. Oo, hi Miguel. Love it. Zift cycling YouTube community
coming together here. Yeah, dudes. Help me grow this channel and I’ll do Zift cycling every day.
That’s what I want to do. I think right now we’re probably seeing Zift coverage of one elite race,
one day per week. Uh, we know who the hitters are in commentating. I’m just doing my own thing. I
kind of do it a little bit differently. Uh, I like to get to know everyone here. I’ll remember the
name of your dog if you tell me. So, drop me some info. That’s right, Don. The Matrix, Mr. Anderson.
Here’s a new one for you. Tell me what movie this is from. coming around for a 709er. That’s all you
get. One of the best movies ever made. Uh so we’ve got uh Cahill here and Lee Maine heading through
the spooky jungle part here. Sorry, the spooky forest part with the castles in the background.
Very eerie. Uh let me just get my cameras going again, guys. Looks like we’re going to have a two
rider shootout here at the end. It’s 29 30 seconds back to the next group. And I think that group is
stuck together. I think we got about 13 riders in this group. T Adams here again. Yeah, they’re all
here. Final rider in this group is uh uh Williams here for for Slowb bros. Dude, I like your team
name. I love it. Yeah, it looks like there is 13 here. Armonos just sitting on the back with uh
S. Tokov here. Danish rider. Then it’s a 1 minute 36 seconds back to that dude on that Halo bike.
Yeah, he’s still back there by himself. So guys, to unlock the Halo bike takes a lot of work.
Now there’s the shaky cam again. I’m ready for a gunfight. Uh, riding on the Zift. Oh, yeah.
I forgot that, too. When you’re racing, guys, in these races, have the bikes been neutralized?
I think they are, which is cool. I like that. I’m not always sure if they are. Uh, never watched the
Zift live stream before, but just dropped a like. Uh, glad you’re covering such an interesting part
of an interesting sport. Dude, whoever you are, uh, dude, my eyes are shot today. Sorry if
I’m looking like an old dude here. Thunder, we got Thunder in the mix. Uh, Migill,
Stake and Chains again. Dude, what’s I’d love to know more about your name, Steak
and Chains. Best commentator in the business, dude. Thank you so much, bro. Thank you. Thank you
to all dudes who jump in here and give my channel just that little push in the right direction.
I’m finally getting a little bit of attention. Uh and not that I need that to feel good about
myself. I love myself, guys. And um I just like having fun doing this. I’ve already had another
job. I’ve already had a different career. Okay, guys. I think this is the final ascent up now.
We better jump up to Lee and uh JK Hill here. So, it’s looking it’s 31.7 km. Is it really that
far to the top, guys? No, I don’t think it is. It can’t be 6 km 5 km to the top, can it? Nah. I
think they’re going to go up over the top. Now, Dan did say this morning. He said it’s the Sigur
Summit North. So, ooh, big push here by J Kill here. I saw him going 7 watts a kilo. Again,
look at the profile at the top. Kicking up, kicking up. This is designed for exciting bike
racing. Lee Maine coming back. He’s he’s fallen back 3 seconds, guys. So Lee Mine is going to have
to dig extra deep here right now to bring himself back. Uh take a look at the gradient there. 10 11%
guys. Love it. Lee Mane, love your hair, bro. Love it. Further up ahead. He can still see him. He’s
got him in his sights. I think we’re going up over the top of Sigura Summit. Yeah, we will be bombing
down the other side. We’re probably going to do what I would call a little chocolate zippydah
around that roundabout and then come back up. So, it’s going to be up over the top. Heart rate jack
to oblivion. Uh, 6.7 watts a kilo here for this dude. Wow. Heart rates are virtually the same.
167 168. Look at this, guys. This is the kind of stuff I look for is little things like this.
75 RPMs. And Jeff, oh, he he’s kind of pushing lower cadence, higher power. I I guarantee you
he’s standing out of the pedals all the way. He’s out of the seat. He’s standing the whole
way. uh which is very much inside cycling these days. Standing up, grinding a big gear, standing
up all the way. So, looks like Lee’s just holding on here. Lee’s going to have to try to pull it all
back. Sorry, guys. I’m inside the mountain. We’re doing a little bit of geology there for you guys.
I was going to give you a geology lesson here, but let’s move on from that. So, here’s Lee Mine
coming now. Let’s just watch him come by us. So cool. Woo! Yes, dude. I love that he’s looking
sharp here. We can see Jay just up the road here. I see big numbers going off behind us now. Here.
So, I’m not sure if there’s like an inter club, if you want to call it. Is there the championship
race? And is there also action cam? Action cam guys. Uh Jeff JK Hill here gets the KM across
top. He’s going to go down the other side. We’re at 33.3Ks. He’s going to flip around that little
roundabout. Uh if I can stabilize the camera here maybe. Yeah. So he’s going downhill right now.
He’s going to go through a roundabout and come back up and finish the race. So awesome stuff.
So yeah, Miguel Steak and Chance. Thanks so much, dude. Really appreciate it. Uh if everyone
could drop a like. I I actually told Joey Jojo, uh some of you don’t know Joey Jojo. Uh poor Dawn
has heard her name every day. Uh she always says, “Why do you always call me Joey Jojo?” said,
“I call you Joey Jojo in every video.” She’s actually been watching the streams. She’s been
loving the tour to France coverage. She’s been loving hanging out in the live chats. Uh, it’s
been so fun. 8 seconds back to Lee Mine here now. Going to stay with Jah Hill here just to see
how the course unfolds. I think they’re just going to do the little roundabout and come straight
back up. Uh, okay. What’s going on here? Uh uh oh, sorry guys. Uh I’m just missing stuff
here. I think they’re talking about EAB here. Wow. I don’t know how I missed all this. Swift
got too expensive. Uh my wish is free. Yeah, dude. Uh so this is Mr. Natural here, dude.
I’ve been on my wish, too. I love it. Uh I can’t even get it to run right now. I have a
high-end PC here. Thumbs up for uh Mr. Kahill. Looks like he’s dropping zero watts. This is not
the end, dude. So, he’s not aware of where the finish is. Watch Lee Mang here. This is going
to be unfortunate for uh Jale when he realizes the race is not over. I don’t think the race is
over, guys. Or maybe Oh, yes, it is. It finished at 33.7, didn’t it? 33.7. Ah, guys, this is what
you get for amateur hour commentating here. Uh, so yeah, it finished at 33.7. Okay, guys, I’m
going to know that better for next time. So, I can’t fan view him right now. We’re going to go
to uh Okay, this is our 15th place rider coming in now. Looks like watching is BC, I think. Guys, I
got to find someone in my group now. Just hang on. I find a rider nearby and I can’t see
anyone in the events anymore. Okay, I think what I do I think I go back
to me. I think that’s the easiest way to do it. Back to me. Then I pull up
Zifters nearby. Looking for names I know. I saw this guy in the race right here. Degroom.
So, we’re back in the race now, guys. You can see the event up here. Uh he’s saying uh he’s finished
too. So I’m pretty sure Ed and Mlaughlin I think we finished. Yeah, we finished at 33. I kept I
had 37.7 in my head. So I apologize for that. Slows here. Coalition. I’m going to try to back
my way down. E Caro here. Uh we’ll stick with Caro for a little bit. I did see some good chats
here going on though. E maybe is either a legit Spanish national team member or a cheater. Not
a joke. Okay. Uh, Don, when I sign on, will I be starting on a rental steel bike? Yeah, probably,
dude. You’ll probably be starting on a Zift steel bike. Like, honestly. Uh, so I am back in the
race right now, guys. I can see Wangheim here. Let’s Let’s hang out with the TMP boys. Uh, guys,
anyone else that’s here right now, if you see the race at some point, please share it with others.
Uh, and here is Ko. So, Como let off at the end there. He’s at 33.2. I actually want to see where
the finish is right now. How I missed that. So, it was over that summit probably going to the
north summit is what Dan meant. Uh, and apparently it’s about 300 m past and it should be at 33.7 km.
Apparently, there’s a blue banner which I don’t know if I saw it or not. I can see the K banner
behind us and I don’t even know if this is going to help me for tomorrow. Uh, because there is a
second race tomorrow. Oh, I’m not sure. Shaky cam. Guys, I got a new camera. I’m going to be taking
it outside with me, doing some stuff outside. Uh, there goes Komo. He’s through 33.7. I’m not sure
if I saw anything on the road there. Actually, I might have. I might have saw
something on the road there. So, I’m going to back up here. Here’s the dude on
the Halo bike coming down right now. I’m going to try to catch up with him and have a little
look. See what I see here. See, he’s at 33.4 km. Uh, was there an actual banner there on the side
of the road? Yeah, you’re going to start out with a pretty basic bike. Uh, Dawn, but dude,
it’s so much fun and you don’t got to spend a lot of money to get into it. Maybe uh maybe Dan
said 33 km. I don’t know. I’ve completely lost track. Wangheim here. 33.5. So, he’s through the
final KM. There must be another banner here. I’m just gonna see if I can check that out, guys. Dan
did tell me all the stuff, guys, but uh my brain doesn’t work half the time. Uh today’s tonight’s
route is a custom version of Muckly that finishes about 300 m past the cigar north climb banner
the second time up. 33.7 km is what I have. So, all these riders are finishing like Wangheim here
just finished for TMP. Here’s Tired Cycling Dad. He’s just finished up uh me here. It looks
like he’s just I still don’t know where the banner is. I know where the cigar summit banner
is, but uh let’s just catch up with the chat, guys. Yes. So, Don, you do start with a
basic bike and you got to build up. You level up by riding. By leveling up by riding,
you gain drops and that’s going to give you access to other bikes to purchase. And all
the bikes have different characteristics. Uh Jason Drew here say Druelt he’s been called
out as cheating already in-game chat. Interesting. Yeah, I saw someone said uh so fake earlier.
Uh Sam, I think Oh, Miguel here saying to Sam, I think she’s a legit Spanish racer. Still
looking. You’d like to think she’s legit. Uh Don saying his cruising cadence is 95 right
now. Not just going off for profile pick. They’re trying to figure out here. Top Gun. No, dude.
Dawn coming around. Okay, so no one got it. Coming around for a 709er. I think that’s your guess
is Top Gun. It’s from uh Aliens. It’s when the uh the female pilot takes them down in the drop
ship and they land. For some reason, she says, “Coming around for a 709er.” And whatever that
means, I love it. Like when I go drinking, I’m going around for a 709er if you get my
drift. That’s what I think it means. Uh yeah, just kidding, guys. Just being a goofball.
So yeah, everyone’s finishing up here, guys. Uh sorry I missed the finish. Well, I
guess I was on. I just didn’t know where the finish line was. And I do always struggle
with these custom races like that. Colin needs a little bit of help, guys. Uh
I’m going to go through the chat here. Okay. Uh, Canton ADR, very nice live stream.
Very exciting race. UAD is competing very well. I would support him if he wasn’t my brother.
Oh, you got to be supporting him, bro. Dudes, slap a like here. I told Joey Jojo this morning,
she stayed home today and I said, “Look, I’m going to do a Zift video today. She is like a billion%
behind my channel. It’s amazing the support she gives me for my dumb little hobby, but she knows
it’s my life. She knows I’ve spent God like three years trying to make this thing happen and it just
blew up last month on me. Uh if you guys go watch some of the videos or maybe watch some of the tour
to France fem videos, I’ I’d really appreciate that. Uh I’m trying to get more people watching
the women’s races and I want the women to watch the women’s races. I’ve said here’s one of the
tribe riders. So the tribe riders are here. We’re going to bounce through the riders. Here’s Daniel
Kent. Daniel, sorry I screwed up the finish. So, this is the summit here at 33.3 and I think the
actual finish Dan said was 33.7. Yeah, it says 300 m past the banner. So, I did see JK Hill going
hard over the banner. I thought we were coming back up when it said Sagur Summit North. I thought
that meant from the north side. It probably means to the north side, coming from the south. Asusa
Mbell all finishing up right now. This ladies rider here. Check this rider out. Uh, sorry, not
a ladies rider. It’s a Quinn Simmons type rider, guys. Uh, rocking the hair man bun going on.
Love the look, dude. Love the look. I’ve I’ve watched so much Quinn Simmons over the last three
weeks. It kind of blows my mind. Here’s Ollie Moore coming to the finish. Uh, yeah. Joey Jojo,
that’s Mrs. Emerson. Uh, Bippity Bop’s asking, “What map is that?” This is the Muckle Yin in
Scotland. So guys, the worlds rotate. Wtopia is always available. Tons of routes to do. Then two
routes rotate all the time. Two worlds. Obviously, it’s Scotland right now. Actually, it may
not be Scotland right now. These events, you can pick a world. You can kind of hack the
system. You can say, I want to do a workout in any world you want. Get to the get to that
world, skip the workout, and then just do your own ride there. That’s what I learned doing.
I figured that out for a ladder league race. Got Osborne coming in here with uh Bullymore.
Looks like Bullymore wants to do a little bit of a kick over the top. 4 and a half watts a kilo.
K Osborne finishing up. I’m I’m pretty much just going to call the summit the top. Pub for TMP.
Pub for the dub. Six watts a kilo there. Right to the top. Let’s off coasting over this side.
We also got Guan here for TMP. 16 years old, bro. uh finishing 38th PISK for the Dinos. I’ve
definitely called the Dinos uh on WTRLTT. Uh and I think it was an all ladies team, I believe,
or there was just a lot of ladies on it. Was a mixed team. Uh P Fisk. I think I know Pisk. I’m
positive I know P Fisk. R Miller here for TMP. Another new dude. Beach for TMP. Uh TMP is growing
in size really fast, guys. Peacocks for TMP. T Howard Inox TMP. We got this Lorenti Grole dude.
Belgian rider here. Should feel right at home on these little kickers, these little walls. Howard.
So, we got LMN GB Badger here. The Canadian. Get it, dude. Get it done. Uh, guys, gonna just
jump back to the chat here again quick. Don, give it a shot, dude. Get a trainer. I would
say, you know, if I was to start it right now, I probably wouldn’t even buy a used trainer. I’d
go out right now and I go find myself a sub $500 Wahoo Kicker Core. That’s about all you need. And
I would find any old bike laying around the house. The best thing you need to do is just lubricate
the chain. Get on it. You don’t need brakes, obviously. You don’t need to be be aerodynamic,
obviously. uh you just need enough gears to get up these hills because you will these hills are all
simulated. You’re going to feel like you’re riding up the hills. So, I always tell people, let’s say
you got a $1,500 budget to get into wicked shape, uh put all your money into your trainer. So,
whatever you want to do, if you’ve only got 500 bucks to get in, spend 500 bucks on a trainer
and find a bike laying around. I’ve seen bike guys riding like hybrid bikes, like flat handlebar
city commuter bikes. It just reads your power. It doesn’t matter how aerodynamic you are. Um,
it does get factored in though. You need to input your height and your weight. Uh, so it’s
going to give you like a coefficient of drag for like your height, that kind of thing. Uh,
okay. Don spinning tail riding the broom bike. Don, you’d really like it. Noah Henley, this race
is 33.7. Okay. Thanks, Noah. Okay. Yeah. I know. I might have looked at that. I got the links uh from
Dan probably late yesterday after I’d streamed 8 hours yesterday. Uh having these screens on in
my face. Actually, I don’t even know what I look like right now on camera. Like, I just don’t know.
Uh actually, it’s pretty good right now. But I’ve been having three screens on the whole time in
my face, and I feel like I’m getting retina burn. Uh especially this little guy right here. So,
yeah, I’ll do that again. Bippy Bob, thank you. Don saying, “Do I need a real ID to race
in Scotland from?” Yes, absolutely not, Don. Anyone can race here. Get into it, dude.
You’ll love it. I guarantee it. Uh, trust me, dude. I sat on the sidelines from 1997 to 2017. I
probably sat on a bike two times. Um, so you can see here, G Badger is going to finish. And then
like honestly, Joey Jojo said one day, “Why don’t you ride a bike? You you’ve been watching Lance
Armstrong, uh, the Schlech brothers, Contidor. Well, Lance was gone by the time Joey came along.
Then it was Conidor, Schlech Bros, Team Sky, Froom, WGO, Egon, uh, G Thomas, all that stuff,
right? And so I did, and it was the best move I ever made. And then a couple years after that, I
thought, I’m going to make a YouTube channel. Just going back to the group here, guys. We’re one hour
in now. Let’s see how far back we got to go. So, some riders have got a little ways to go yet, but
no one’s really got that far to go now. Like you can see here, 59 minutes in. Just pedal your way
through it. Two watts a kilo back here. Va Bacco Italian rider. CAC way at the back today. Oh, he’s
actually spun around for the second time. That’s what it is. I was kind of shocked by that. So, I
think these are some of the last riders on course here. D Conway here, 28.8 km in. So, yeah, this is
the very back here. Let’s support this dude right here. He’s at 28.8 km uh into the event here. And
I’m going to finish up the chat here, guys. Hey guys, so that’s it for me. That’s another hour of
streaming. I will be back tomorrow for the second round of TMP summer championship. I think it’s
called race number two. Do you have to do both of them? I don’t even know. Uh I will be doing
tour to France fems tomorrow morning as well. I just found out this morning, uh, they don’t even
start the coverage until a couple hours in. So, that’s probably another reason why we don’t see as
much women’s racing. The coverage doesn’t start at the same time. So, they they start and then it
goes. Uh, some really good racing today. That Lena Vibes is unbelievable. Uh, she can probably
outsprint most of us. Got like shoulders on her. So, when they’re in the helicopter, like a view
like this that was on screen there before. Oh, dude. This guy’s got the full Diddy suit. I’m
never going to get it now. D Conway here’s got the Diddy suit. I want the suit. Uh I’ve got a friend
who’s getting me going into uh a big challenge over on Ruby. It’s the Legends of the Tour. So,
it’s the hardest hills to climb on the tour. Anyways, guys, I got to shut it down. Uh go do a
couple things around here and relax. Start queuing up for tomorrow. Thanks for watching everyone and
we’ll see you all again tomorrow morning. Guys, if you can like the video on the way out or share
it with share with anyone that raced on here, guys. Reach out to me if you want some race
coverage. Let’s get it on. Shaka. Thing bang.
