  • I borrowed a norco 29er mountain bike from Wilson's bicycles in Clovis Ca, and headed to the Springville Fat Tire Classic, which is a mountain bike race. I raced the sport class but we all started together and I got 4th overall, 1st in the sport class.
    I vlogged the whole the thing and hope you enjoy this mountain bike race vlog.
    If this description seemed weird, Max at youtube told me I needed better descriptions in my videos. Soooo.... mountain bike, mountain bike, mountain bike, vlog, vlog vlog, mountain bike vlog.

    I did a very similar thing and entered an MTB race after my road season this year. I love mountain biking, always have done but never wanted to race it as I felt it would ruin my enjoyment.. Anyway came away with a 3rd place and my first ever cup in racing after trying so hard! Now looking to enter some more next year, hope you do too.

    MTB is awesome, this is my first year cycling after decades away and I started with my first event being a 24 hour mountain bike race. Team of 6, all day thru the night! Crashed several times but always got up , wiped the dirt and blood and kept pedalling!
    Did a few other road events but the mtb event stands out by far.
    Check out Chico Racing Albion Hills in Ontario Canada, its the largest North American mtb 24hr event.

    You should do a video on how mountain biking can benefit road cyclists

    • @potatohead6028
      @potatohead6028 Před 6 lety

      Clark Aylward I’ll start with the “no” because it’s quick and easy: No - Not if you’re trying to get really good at road racing. You might see Lance on the mountain bike from time to time but he’s more the exception than the rule. There’s lots of stuff Lance does that you don’t see any other human beings do. I guarantee Cadel didn’t ride his mountain bike for training leading up to his world title yesterday. It has everything to do with specificity. If you want to maximize your potential for road racing you have to do things in training that mimic exactly what you need to be doing in racing. Needless to say road riding is better at preparing you for road racing than mountain biking is - period.
      Now for the fun stuff: Yes - Very few of us reading have the dedication and ambition to be world class roadies (well, maybe Gerro, Kempy and Jonodo). Therefore I can definitely recommend you get out mountain biking to keep things fresh. The only caveat I’ll say is that you shouldn’t replace your road training with the mountain biking if you have upcoming goals on the road in the near future. As a priority event approaches you should do less mountain biking and concentrate more on the specific demands of that road event.

I've been pushing the mtb for the last three years and my road bike spirit has put me out there, And I have to say, Liking it.
