Woot!

Cheers!

Thank you, I will

In some cases that is very true.

Thanks my dude, been brutal since the addition of the Zwift Labs scoring.

Truth is studies have shown drivers break the law more frequently than cyclists. Feel free to watch the video again and observe the green light. Roadways aren’t boat ways, and hate to break it but it would be pure chaos among cars if such rules were adopted.

If you are riding pavement a slicker tire will serve you better so likely the SS.

@@JDirom can i mix ss on rear and sk on front?

I don’t advise mixing tires.

It appears that way…lol

Axle is 142. Of your axle is 165 these adapters won’t work.

Glad I could help! Enjoy your new cold plunge tub!

A good recommendation assuming someone isn't going to go over 90 PSI which is the limitation of that particular pump. Some road riders do still run higher pressures. In my case I run about 83-85 PSI, I like that extra wiggle room, rather than pressing up against the max capacity of the pump.

Thanks for that bit of information. That will make a difference for sure.

Cheers!

Battery can be limited as well. To be fair I have never used one. I would be concerned about potential a depleted battery if not used for a long time. Again I have zero experience with this.

found the wax, just need the ultrasonic cleaner brand. I like the size.

You can probably find a comparable ultrasonic on Amazon. That cleaner is 20 years old and bought from a tattoo supplier in NYC. Just look for something with a minim 20oz capacity. It will be small but can easily fit the chain, but will not fit larger parts. Wax I am currently using is Silca Super Secret . Hope that helps!

Silca is on the higher end of price for sure. Quality is there, but there are for sure some money to be saved with other brands.

Having a pump always has the advantage of having air. CO2 and battery inflators are both limited.

🤣😂

It was!

Any biometric data is ultimately digital data.

Perfect size for reliable air.

The volume the pump pushes it will take a bit to fill up, but at least you are riding skinny road tires!

i've been training my whole life to use a mini pump

😂

@@traaaaan too funny!

You use a clawed torque wrench.

Cheers!

Thank you!

Would be awesome to have you back in the mix!

Thanks Bryan appreciate that. Each week we hold on a little longer, we will get there eventually. While I will grumble in the moment (and a bit after), I do enjoy getting pushed, and knowing I gave it a shot no matter the outcome. Congratulations on your top 10 finish!

@@JDirom Also, I don’t know about you but I don’t do those kinds of efforts outside (don’t have a carrot to chase.). Us Northerners will be stronger in the winter for these z racing

I will likely peak at the very beginning of winter. My volume during the summer months are high, to the detriment of Zwift races vs real world riding. Give me some lower volume weeks in winter, and should see some improvement vs jumping on after a couple days of century rides in the Rockies to race on a Monday. We will see what winter brings!

Valiant effort my friend. You kept the power on until the top of the aqueduct where others may have powered off earlier. The more people race the better the reading will become. Those A’s and B’s should hopefully move up and populate the ghost town that is 750-1000.

Awesome! Enjoy!

Cheers!

Thanks for the feedback.

Why? Was I holding up traffic or something? 😂

@@JDirom FAFO

😂🤣😂

When was the last time you flatted?

Too close.

Hope it helped you out!

Damn! That is not enough time owning a bike to have that kind of experience. Glad to hear you weren’t hurt. Ironically last year I had a similar experience, was hit but ended up being like a bump drill, luckily able to gain control before going off the road. Never fun. Although I escaped with no real bruising. Stay safe and enjoy your SL8!

Awesome! Enjoy!

Thanks, all good. A little close for my liking. I would prefer not getting hit by a car two years in a row!

You do realize that riding a bike on the sidewalk is illegal? Do you think it would be safe for pedestrians for me to ride a bike at 40km/hr on the sidewalk? Given that I am moving at the speed of car traffic, and legally supposed to be on the road that isn’t where someone should ride?

@@JDirom yet in all my years of doing it, I've NEVER been stopped by police for it, and neither has a single person I've known. And there sure were a lot of pedestrians on that empty sidewalk. Did we even watch the same video? 😂

So you are saying one should break the law then. That says it all.

@JDirom this is about riding a bike to not get hit by a car. Don't try and read into it like you know me 😂 you're clearly one of the people that everyone is complaining about when they say they hate cyclists, aren't you? 🤔

I think I have a pretty good read of you based on your comments on this subject. Have a great day.

Seeing as he started heading out and then stopped for the car in the other direction. One would assume he would wait. Cool hot take though.

lol…there isn’t enough Grandmas in the world right now to see me ride at 3.9 or higher to snag that podium!

Yeah, there are definitely stronger riders with the new classification that just racing Cat C. Last couple races we have had some A’s and a very high number of B’s in the race.

Big planter box was well in the way.

Congratulations on the win! Thanks for sharing your experience and perspective in this race. I think at the end of the day it will work a little better than what they have currently. As a mid-pack C being in the mix with some very strong riders comparatively is going to really push me for a bit.

Awesome dude!

Fair, I get that.

Cheers!

As they say in mirrors “objects may be closer than they appear.” People shouldn’t be talking on their phones and driving. Have a great day and enjoy your ride!

@leorichardson8699 if you see nothing wrong here, you need to take a step back and look at how situations like that are bad for inexperienced cyclists. While JD may be comfortable, it could spell disaster to someone else.

​@@wattsupcycling in what reasonable sense an inexperienced cyclist should be on the road?

​@@JDirom I'm not seeing a phone. He correctly assessed slowing down for opposing traffic, only going when it was safe, and seemed to also correctly assess that his turn would still give you plenty of room to safely bike past him. Its all above board. If he's on his phone, I agree, he should not be, but in this instance there is no immediate danger present, the driver seemed alert to multiple potential dangers, and no accident occurred. If he's distracted driving, he's incredibly good at it.

@@ansatsuken well seeing as it is against the law to ride on the sidewalk, that is where they must ride.

Thanks, it was getting up there. Being well into my 50’s my max isn’t as high as it once was.

Steering I think is a big advantage when it comes to the end or any situation where potentially people don’t want to work or excluding them from the draft is advantageous. I don’t have the Zwift play, but rather the Elite Sterzo, which has proven to not be the best way to steer so I rarely use it.

Great piece of kit. Since this video I ordered a second as I wear it all the time when the temperature drops. Enjoy!

@@JDirom awesome mate, that's great to hear. What do you recommend wearing underneath for below 10°? Cheers

@@CradleOfBikes I just wear a base layer, long sleeve as it gets colder.
