EJ man! I know how you feel, you don’t wanna be behind others because being behind others means you are not first! And if ya ain’t first, yer last. But seriously, stay behind these dudes and save your fat sprint. Just stay behind them! As a sprinter your job is incredibly straightforward and simple. You could probably even go P and not just 1/2 if you can implement this concept. All the love bro, you’re a great guy and we all wanna see you succeed even harder than you already have been!

I think they can be if they aren’t wide enough around the corners. What can make them dangerous is by people dive bombing into narrow corners. But having wider corners decreases the risk. And those in higher categories should know how to handle a bike at speed and not do something stupid.

Im new to watching crit racing and the commentary during the race and identifying what is happening and the strategy tactics being deployed makes it much more enjoyable.

Good job EJ! This is fun to see the progress in race awareness. Cool to see you are doing things strategically now but are still asking Jeff to double check your tactics that is a combination for a ton of success. I am not a very experienced racer and get a lot from these videos so thanks!

In a 2/3 crit around the Royal Mint in Winnipeg, Canada back in the mid-90s, a friend and I rode clear of the pack and LAPPED it (two riders can negotiate corners much faster than a pack). I wish that race had been $10/lap. I think we walked away with about $50 each and some swag (water bottles and the usual suspects), but it was fun as hell while being a bit boring!

I was throwing some bad comments months ago on EJ... but you learned ago. Seems I have to say "Sorry!" now: Sorry! Still lots to learn, but even an amatour like me sees the great progress. Good work!

Jeff and EJ, Love your videos. The guy in black kit #414 was up the road and caught at 6325. He didn't bridge. Your break of 4 was hauling at 30+. Maybe he was hiding in the bushes.... The last 2 bridged across. They must have been flying! But alas, neither of them had anything left for the sprint.

#414 did get a stack of 10 dollar bills and an upgrade point for his trouble :)

EJ, you could try coughing forcibly if you get side cramps - something I picked up from more experienced runners. It's not 100% but it has worked for me in the past.

Never ride the top tube of your carbon bike like the guy at the beginning did - these tubes are not designed to carry forces in this direction, and can crack!

surprised that We never really see EJ directly behind another rider 'inches' - Makes for boring 'Butt' video but , makes for better drafting. 'Q' Wasn't the rider in black being lapped? and what's the rules regarding jumping into a break?

@andrewwoffinden8671 Жыл бұрын

If you're not within a foot of someones wheel you have to have a really good reason for it. Also, there is no reason to not be in the top 10 of a field like this. Going to the back and then having to work so hard to get to the front is making it so hard for yourself.

19:24 My coach always told me that if you have cramps on your sides when running, you must continue running until the cramp goes away. Not only will it build stamina, but you'll increase your threshold the next time you run. I think it also applies to biking, esp if you're pushing yourself more than before.

@user-zj5sv3ux2m Жыл бұрын

Late to the comments, but EJ’s lack of drafting will improve as he gets more comfortable riding/racing in a pack. This is pretty common for the super strong guys to be riding along side the peloton taking wind.

I just can't watch. He literally still has no idea. Out in the wind, burning matches but not getting anywhere, it's just too much. And you're not doing him any favors by saying that he's improved so much. He hasn't. At all. I really hate being that guy, and I know race tactics take a little while to learn, but staying on a wheel is racing 101. Hell it's group riding 101. So, no more EJ for me.
