What app are you using on your phone for the speedometer? Your trip looks like a lot of fun.

Try 1200 miles in three weeks 24 times 500 miles in 7 days. 41 times from head waters of the Wisconsin River to the Mississippi. Try that after riding in Georgia across Georgia 500 miles two weeks before Wisconsin coming from Virginia cycling 600 miles 8 day all in the month of June 19 86 thru 2018. That’s just June then onto July and Iowa cycling from the Mississippi to the start of ragbrai across Iowa to the Mississippi then up to Minnesota for 500 mile 7 day averaging 8,000 miles a year for 45 years over 360 -across state bicycles rides, 500 mile events good job though keep track of your miles, maybe you’ll catch up with me I just cross the 300,250 miles 55 years of cycling 18 country’s, 47 states just think you have 46 more states to ride.

This is absolutely incredible

Sad piece of riding by the TXRH guy

"Felt like a GCN host..." 🤣

Glad you and the bike are ok Bri.

1:41 okay Brian come on it's your turn, what was your first crit? You at the field in your first race, or did you finish three laps down 🙂?

Tough break. Hope to see you in Tosa tonight!

Self-sabotage

11:51 head game or game space? At the seven races I did this year, I kind of felt my head was not 100% in the game. I was having a fair amount of hesitation grabbing wheels and I couldn't figure out why. That hesitation contributed to me getting dropped and laughed more than once in these races. Have a local race tomorrow, maybe I got my head back on straight now.

3:58 after the race at Mount Pleasant I was so hungry I actually stopped at Burger King and got two Whopper Juniors and a medium fry, I haven't gotten anything from Burger King in like probably 8 years 😀😃.

*I noticed Masters are more likely to ride rim brakes than the Seniors.* Older guys are just not as swayed by Specialized like younger guys are.

great thing - 360 cam not great thing - quick spins

I don't think I've ever done a faster Shorewood Crit. I finished with a 29.1 avg speed. I was gassed the whole time just sitting on the back.

"self- psychology" = ego?

geez was the start neutralized lol. pretty chill first lap pace

Unless you weight 240+ lbs you should be moving up doing those kind of watts.

The promlem is people believe a con artist is a legit businessman, never mind his horrible personality. Then there are those that believe that the horrible businessman cares about them. Anyhow there are new plans for that same Foxcon site brought to you by a far less deranged threat.

Dude nice job latching on and u almost nipped second place.

I hit a sewer grate yesterday at Bayview that messed up my bars. Feel for ya.

😀😃😄 13:02 you need some good old reliable 105 😎.

I really need to get myself a power meter. What power meter do you use?

9:28 totally the same. Cycling has its own vernacular 🤓. ToAD was crap for me this year for a number of reasons, not just the categories.... i've had good races away from ToAD, then i come to ToAD and suck 😀. I like to say cycling is a bottomless pit of both joy and despair 🙂.

9:02 i don't know how those people feel.... at least we both toe the line and start 😎.

In the 3/4s we started at 2:25 and OMG was Mt Plesent hot 🥵. I was gapped in turn 2 and stuck my head into the strong wind.... got dropped 😊. That was my last race for this year's ToAD. 6 DNFs and 1 OTB finish, 3/4s with juniors were fast, too fast for me 🙂. A lot to think about for if i'll do ToAD next year, especially if it is 3/4 together again Local race Sunday for me. I am thinking of doing Indy in a few weeks.... there it is 4/5 and they have a masters 4/5, so the odd will be a bit more even. So i could do four races in two days at Indy 😎... we will see.

Good to see you - might race Downers in the Masters

I just did the Rock Island from KC to Windsor and the Katy from Windsor to Sedalia. It all pretty much SUCKED. The Rock was too sandy and it took WAY more effort to pedal than it should have. Also zero services from Lees's Summit all the way to Windsor. NOTHING for 59 miles. The scenery on the Rock is just flat farmers fields and open land. The Katy trail surface was marginally better but horrifically boring. I bailed in Sedalia and jumped on the Amtrak back to my car in STL. From there I drove to Pittsburgh and rode the wonderful GAP Trail again!

Thanks for sharing your experience. I’m hoping to see you at Downers on Saturday 6/22.

Great job even being out there! 👏

15:50 50+ is the new 40+

3:01 green helmet guy appears to be Norm Alvis so my guess is yes he did keep it up

0:39 there's me looking right up at the camera 🙂. It was nice meeting you for the 25 seconds we were able to talk before the start of the 3/4 😀.

Best wishes for a fun and safe Toad series Brian! Hope to be able to watch you at the Downer/Cafe Hollander race on Saturday June 22nd.

Been looking for the route , but can't find it.

There is 39% Street near. Is on youtube, gr8 speed

One of the best things about long rides is exploring new roads to ride.

Glad you got it figured out! Will you be doing Race the Lake later this summer?

Wait a minute, you can call shimano? They actually offer customer support?

Awww you almost got me super excited, I thought this was gonna be the full upload for Lax, but keep up the hard work man! Super excited to see all your future content

I am a paid subscriber and I have created a new route. If I share my new route to my Strava friends, will they be able to follow my route without becoming a paid subscriber?

Man I'd love to join one of the races as I'm not to far away! How competitive are these races? I also have a gravel bike so it will probably set me back with that alone. Have fun man!!!

The UNBOUND Gravel event is just a few days away! I believe they have a few spaces for the XL350 available.

Would love if you came to De Pere on the 17th!

Love the progress/prep videos. Hope you get the chainsuck issue sorted out!

I'm hoping to also do Indie this year, because it's in the midwest as well, but the way I'm burning through money to get just a toad, we're going to have to see if that actually happens I might come home from toad owing a lot money 🙂. Snake alley and that whole Quad Cities races Memorial Day weekend I would like to do as well, although for it's about an 7 hour drive 🙂... So that's a whole vacation day spent jusr driving there and another whole vacation day spent jusr driving home 🙂. I didn't do it this year, maybe next year, I did just start a new job so haven't accumulated all the vacation time yet...

I will also be at dairyland. although I signed up for the early races. Right now I am signed up for the 13th to the 19th in the cat 3/4s. We'll see how I feel by the time we get closer to the 19th if I want to add another race or two. I actually would prefer to do masters, but I only hold a cat 4 license. I hope to meet you this year, I was watching your videos when I was at Dairyland last year. I also want to meet Claudio, another cycling UA-camr I follow, he's supposed to be at toad as well

Wait a minute, you want a bigger chainring then a 53? what kind of power are you putting out 😀? Or is your smallest Cog in the back like a 15 😀😃😄? I'm happy with a 50x11 or even a 48x11 😎.... But then I'm not putting out your 3,000 W sprints 🤘.

Just ordered your back bottle, trying to find alternatives to wearing my vest for ultra distance races (it just seems to pull extra sweat from me, no bueno! and I've been liking no vest riding) - found this channel that way! Hopefully it will stay on rough terrain in MTB too? I primarily do XC MTB :)

Great insights on the race. Your longer race videos fantastic. Keep up the good job.

Thanks brother! Must be in the name :) I have recently started my own cycling/adventure channel and this is going to help immensely! I subscribed and liked the video. Will have to check out more of you're content as it is close to bedtime today! haha! best of luck!
