  • The "24 Hours In The Old Pueblo" race is one of the biggest 24-hour races in the world. But this isn't Rich Payne's first rodeo, in fact, he's here for redemption! Last year Rich attempted the race but had to pull out due to medical reason. But this year he has learnt from his mistakes and is back for blood (hopefully not in his pee), following a more tailored training plan and bringing along a top-notch support team he's hoping to complete the race!

      By far, the 400km Nakdong River bike ride stretches from Andong City to Busan City, South Korea which it tooked me 3 days. But I’ll be taking the 700+km South Korea East Coast Bike Trail from Goseong (DMZ | Boundary Line from South to North Korea) all the way to Busan and hoping to complete it in 5 days (long weekend holiday) 🚵‍♂️🏞️🔥

    Hey Rich,
    I was in the Marine Corps for a spell. I was sick and did a double murph after coming back from leave and getting ready for a training cycle. I wound up having pretty bad rhabdo after the workout. It wound up haunting me for the rest of my career because of how badly it sidelined me. I recovered physically but it's something that mentally really messed me up for a few years.
    Major props to you for working through it, and being able to come to my home in Arizona to crush the race again.

    Congratulations! As an old gmbn viewer and Arizona resident, I was waiting for this video to come out,4 months! I was relieved and gladden ed by your triumph over this grueling challenge with the help of a good woman and proper hydrationand nutritrion, kudos to the nth degree! I feel however, our riding region was not represented by actual fun, as all the great riding is at altitude! Please look at the m/ lemmon drop, helio peak to ladybug on MtGraham, the amazing Sunrise bike park near pinetop........these are the kind of rides to make the heart sing! Dry, high altitude,pine and aspen forest, warm, deep loam, rock sections, amazing native American fry bread at 12,000ft,the best. I say this as an ex xc racer circa '87 to'96, I was at the first norba national at Whister 1987, I feel I know fun,and warmth plays a part. P,ease come again and experience our arizona sky islands. I love the UK, as a Canadian I now at 61,ride in the warm mountains all the time, making gains yes !

    I’d be interested to know if you had any sort of viral infection prior to your last race? Possible to trigger rhabdo if you’ve had an infection within 6-8 weeks of a big event like that. Or you could have just been unlucky and exercise was enough to trigger it. No failure last time mate, if fate decided to take you out with sickness that’s nothing to do with your fortitude. (In fact if you think you’re genuinely sick in a long distance race the safest thing to do is run away to fight another day). Hope you enjoyed your redemption though 👌

    Congrats Dude, that's one hell of a ride, has me thinking on maybe getting back into the endurance thing. Curious, did you sleep at all Rich or just straight through?
    Side question on the Vittoria tyres - got myself an Aggaro with the plans to use it in the rear paired to a Mazza as a Trail combo and then in the front paired with maybe a Barzo or Syerra in the rear for XC\/light Trail. Any thoughts on those combos? Unfortunately the shipment got messed up and only got the Aggaro, so for now paired with a Conti Cross King in the rear.

    Awesome video and awesome performance!
    Can someone explain to me how the timekeeping is handled, how the breaks are factored in etc.?

      Your are given 24hrs to do as many laps as you can! The more breaks you take the less you ride so in turn the less laps/distance you will do.

    Shout out to Aimee, your presence was invaluable. And to Rich, "redemption" is now officially part of your vocabulary.

    I am planning to ride a 24h race soon, this both motivated and scared me.

    I got rhabdomyolysis the first time I ran a 100 mile ultramarathon. I was really lucky because I never got treated and it cleared up on its own. I'd never heard of the condition and just assumed I was super dehydrated. It was probably a year later before I learned any different. It's a real danger to endurance athletes that doesn't seem widely known about.

    Most races are not fun to actually do . There are maybe some points where endorphins kick in and you feel good but their are not many of them . Many times it's just a forced grind of pain . Where the enjoyment lies is the completion . If you did well within the goals set that increased the satisfaction . I sure enjoy a redemption story and this is a good one

    Wow that was amazing almost 200 miles. What kind of saddle was on the bike, I ride for 2 hours and my arse hurts.

  • @j.albertogratacos2076

    How did you keep the nutrition and hydration up? Under the sun but especially by the last stretch?
