Best Fred video I think I’ve seen. Well done 🚴🏼🥵🥵🥵

[@PW-CreakySaddle]

great stuff :-)

[@theboxingtriathlete]

Thanks ☺️

[@ramsden35]

Amazing effort! And you mate at 6hrs 44 is insane, but an hour slower than a 20 year old lad that canned it.

[@theboxingtriathlete]

Thank you

I hate how cameras never show the gradients properly. Even watching the Giro you see pros grinding on what looks like flats.

[@theboxingtriathlete]

Agreed, even the the shot I used in my thumbnail doesn’t do it justice

[@SwimBikeRunStu]

Big day out 💪

[@theboxingtriathlete]

Certainly was. Roll on next year

How did you battery the camera, for that length of time?

[@theboxingtriathlete]

By just recording segments rather than the entire 8 hours. It’s the press of one button. Press once to turn on and the GoPro. It double beeps to signal on/recording. Then press that same button again, and it’ll sound four beeps and it stops recording/turns off, preserving the battery life. I did one battery change. The first battery lasted roughly 70% of the course employing this method. It meant I had about 100 clips to sift through, but they were all uploaded in chronological order, so it was pretty easy to work out which segment was which.
