The weigh ins will get better with practice.

I guess areo bars aren't 'all that' for shedding mud ; -)

Damn didn't know Drew had Pipe or that's a good camera angle. 🤣

… sorry Drew can’t read the comments just yet as his busy cleaning up his bike! Shame, you guys love your peanut butter sandwiches! Oh… I see Chase in a National Jersey in a few weeks!

I'm so happy those B roads drained by race day! It was a great day and glad to see the beef in person! Keep it up!

1 beef and 1 ham

The maths was not only wildly inaccurate (Carapaz is on nearly $2m himself and their other top 5 riders probably account for another c$2m so it’s $6.5m divided by 41! And there is no way Lachlan is on anywhere near $158k 😂), but it’s also completely unnecessary. EF barely do anything to support the stuff Lachlan does, they keep him around for the interesting races he does and the positive PR… it’s not like the EF bus and support crew was there. Yes, Lachlan is on a World Tour team but he was barely an average rider when he was actually on the World Tour and lots of people with similar experience and budget to you finished way better than you. It was actually a decent race video up until that point, and it was still a decent ride… the weird mental gymnastics to make things sound better at the end was just ridiculous 😂

looking forward to your CORE4 video. Congrats on the W.

Great vid and entertaining narration

Love the camera position

Great result, blessings!

Nicely done aeroboy ;)

Never expected to see aerobars in a gravel race. Interesting lol

Notice the guys WITHOUT aerobars crashed and you didn’t. The “no aerobars for safety”argument is invalid.

Nice1 Drew Dustmen! Glad to see you embracing short cranks and alternate hand position equipment. I see you used some crit tactics to bag the win.Keep at it bro. 🙏🏻

I photographed Dax for NICA in WI and raced with him quite a few times. One thing I learned is he just wants to race and leave it out there. He is like our local Tadaj but, he does not win that much for the potential he has for sure.. But, I love his spirit.

Hi do you stop and rest during this ride or is it 200 straight shot? Can you stop and refill bottles or something just carry all of it?

Nice Work, and well done on your result, I love the video, your strategy sharing is very helpful.

Bro didn’t get hot, didn’t flat, didn’t quit 👏

"on the hockey court," as a Canadian this hurt my soul 🏒

I was the official photographer again this year. This is my favorite cycling event to photograph. Really enjoyed this video. Nice to watch from a rider’s perspective!

"hockey court" 😂 The videos are getting better and better, Drew. I'd be interested to see a little bit more analysis of your power and how it changed over the race, and what those climb efforts or breakaways measured out to. I find that really interesting in gravel races like this.

Wow. Congratulations on the win.

friends don't chase friends down🤣🤣🤣🤣 all's fair in the art of winning!! great break down, you've really upped your game both on the bike and sharing your race! great stuff!

Congrats! Great race. Interesting new things you tried. Very cool.

Footout, but not actually leaning the bike over more...

Well done!

This was my first time riding this race and I came in a little under 6 hours. The corners were unbelievably sketchy especially with the wrong group. Definitely gonna start further up and use the grass corner cutting next year, it would have prevented a lot of acceleration fatigue.

on the hockey court.....hahahahahahaha

Wouldn't the "turniest" race be one of the worst races for aero bars? Since it's less aero to have them on when you're not using them, and maybe I'm wrong, but from this footage it seems like you are only in the aero bars like 10-20% of the time (or less). These turns are also decreasing the average speed (diminishing aero advantage), especially given how loose they are, while forcing you to have your hands off the aero bars before during and after. And since you mentioned not taking crash-causing risks in a low priority race, many would argue being in the aerobars while riding riding near many fatigued non-pros at high speeds on unpredictable surfaces is pretty dangerous. Nice win and looks like it wouldn’t matter either way , I'm just saying maybe you would have actually saved watts by not having aerobars on.

Love this voice over type of production. I don't hear so well so on bike voice is hard for me.

great race raddaddizzle, like the commentating and strategy along the ride video's. good work and congrats on the win.

Cool video Drew! Are you participating at Gravel Worlds in Lincoln, NE???

thanks for sharing the experience and congratulations on the W!

Hockey = rink 😂

Congrats Man!!!

On the hockey court made me laugh

2 x 🏆! Always fun watching how the front end plays out! Thanks for the video!

Your videos are the worst. Dylans content is superior. Don't bonk, bro.

see, DJ knows!! great being there video and strategy comments...glad you shared, wouldn't have a clue otherwise what its like being up front, ever! so thanks

Congrats on the win!

"Friends Chase Down Friends" bookend it with "Friends". It's better.

I mean all the hitters are currently altitude training for Leadville..

Does this count as a UCI win?

I don't think the turn cutters in the grass are good honest riders.

Carbs Fuel

Great video Drew and congratulations

Congratulations!

Singular focus for the win
