Awesome Race Recap! I was fortunate to race Lotoja 13 times but never had to start in the rain for 4 hours!! Although I raced it the year is snowed going up Strawberry Pass when we lost 50% of the race field due to frozen bodies! My last Lotoaja was in 2019 but it still holds a special place in my heart. Like you, I am a bigger rider, and surviving the climbs was always my biggest goal. I was blessed to make the podium 5 times but more importantly, I finished them all one way or another. I was bummed that you flatted so close to the race, especially after your massive effort!! Brought back great memories of an epic race! I admire your positive and authentic personality and hope you get another opportunity to sprint for that victory in Lotoja! Bravo!!!!

Nice ride dude.

What about the climb up to Mauna Kea? 60 miles and climb to 13,796 ft? Not questioning the ride you did because it's a helluva an acheivement but Mauna Kea is the longest and the highest.

Funny, nice job. can’t wait to try this in a month 😀

Thanks for posting. Very nice report and you did fantastic!

Wow! Thank you for sharing! I’m feeling the pain too, I wish we could have watched you ride through the finish line!

This is awesome. The truest depiction of Haleakala bike climb I've seen yet. Well done man. Props! ;) and subscribed of course!

Need some more vids bro. Keep’em coming man.

This was his last video up to date... Did frame snapped? Is he still alive?🤔

I love riding road bikes but roadies are so weird...this video just reminds me of why I'm right

How is it holding up?

Great video. I watched this last fall before I biked up and down Haleakala. I was cramping pretty good from around 7000-10000 feet. Fun on the way down! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mJaFiNdesbzIfYU.html

Excellen...purchased the same frame this past summer, your review is spot on.

Well done guys! I got to 5500' last January and turned around. This time, im moving there in march so ill have alot of time to train, and follow your tips! Definitely having a support vehicle this go round! Congrats again!🤙🌴

Nice to see you are putting in the time for Sawtooth Uncut!

If you had included a kickr climb this video would have actually been good😊

You didn't mention the Chamois Butter Station 😉🤣

love the bike. i built one with hydraulic tiagra grx mixed combine with fulcrum wheels. cost around 1400 usd in total

After a little while of owning this frameset would you still recommend? Looking for my next project 👀

Whenever I see prices for electronic stuff, I cry. How does the bike ride? Can you tell it's cheap when you're riding it? I'm thinking of switching my road bikes to disc, and wondering if velobuild carbon is "good enough". I have a giant propel and a supersix hi-mod. My legs, needless to say, are the limiting factor.

I just finished building my first carbon bike. All from aliexpress and ebay. Put on ultegra r8000 groupset. Total for mine was just over 2k

2:40 😂 gold chain for nights out

Fun ... how come I enjoyed watching the Birds being beaten like that. In the end if Stache wins you win

Same frame here! Same issues. Sick bike! Check out my build 🔥

this is so freaking good. you never disappoint

I need to get a gravel bike. It looks so fun.

awesome 😍

Which size are the tires?

I'm so keen on whatever the Treasure Valley Omnium turns out to be

So am I the friend or the friend of the friend? 😂 I’m pretty happy with mine once I got the new piece for the headset. No headset play at all. I’ve also noticed that most of the hardware is rusting on the underside of the bike. What are you replacing yours with?

Where did you get this schedule? Its not posted yet is it?

Solid ride at LOTOJA again this year, man!

sick edit boys!! It was quite the pleasure shredding with ya! just stumbled upon this searching for keefer lake videos!

Man I like your style! Thanks for commenting on one of my vids. Brought me over here and now I'm sucked in! Big props on the production quality. Pretty clear you put some thought into it and it shows. Sense of humor is also pretty good. Keep up the good work, but I'd be lying if I said I hope I can get more subs than you. HAHAHAHA. If we both go big time we gonna do a collab. *thumbs up emoji*

This is cool! Love the overlay edits

I enjoyed harassing you guys this summer! Thanks for the videos Taylor

legendary series, legendary race, legendary lead out. can’t wait to pull this off in the 1/2/3’s ;)

Dude! What a beast. I’m excited to see how LoToJa turns out.

Great vid. The afternoon after finishing Lotoja last year I was like, hmm I feel pretty crappy… also weird I can’t taste my food. Boom COVID. Hope you feel better for Lotoja this year.

When adults obsess over defeating teenagers lol #nomoreadulttears

❤️ p̶r̶o̶m̶o̶s̶m̶

Keep the vids coming! On another note I will be in Boise on Sunday 04 September and wanted to get in a 50 mile ride (part of a much larger Grand Tour)…any suggestions?

legend stuff

“Don’t let this happen to you” haha love it. Great video my friend.

Hey Taylor what road bike did you buy your kiddo? Mine wants one after doing the kiddo race too. He’s in a woom 4 now but wants a dedicated road bike… :). Any thoughts?

Great video! Thanks for posting it.

Great vid! Since everyone else was in the Master's cat, you got first in the cat 3`s. Yea, upgrade points !

Awesome video! love it!

Cool video! Fun racing with you as always 👊🏻
