    If you enjoyed this conversation with Lael you'll love my chat with Vegan Cyclist about his crazy Impossible Route Adventures

    My favourite cyclist to listen to barr none. So positive, so much joy and happiness with a smile that never quites. I love her advice about "if your not having fun change your plans". I have done this more then a few times and I've never regretted it long term

    Great conversation! Lael is such a positive person to watch and follow. I don't expect much from social media anymore; ignore it as much as I can. Haters be hatin'!

    When Lael got shaken down for having a media crew with her, it made me embarrassed to be a cyclist.

    Lael is so inspirational, thank you for sharing your wonderful chat with her. I just subscribed to your channel. Cheers from Seattle.

    As an ultra racer I love Lael and all the work she does. Notwithstanding, having crew and loved ones alongside you in an event does bring a huge psychological boost and advantage. Male or female competitor, I still hold this view. Love Lachie Morton, no doubt in my mind having a media crew on his TD run provided a psychological boost.

    Very excited to watch/listen to this one, I’ve followed Lael for a while now and I just admire everything about this woman, both as a person and as an athlete. I find her take on cycling and life inspirational in the widest possible sense - I believe she lives as more people should strive to live

    I’m sat on my sofa listening to one of the most inspiring cyclist in the world, planning in my head a ride because i am so inspired by her energy and talent. Suprised to hear the criticism she’s received. She’ll still blow them away. She’s wow. Just a fab female role model.

    Is there a more inspirational, positive, charming, role model than Lael? I very much doubt it. Great job with the interview, Anthony.

  • @SonnyDarvishzadeh
    @SonnyDarvishzadeh Před 4 měsíci +2

    43:30 I'm glad to hear that. I use a light motor ebike for long rides with minimal power support and still get hated for it. It's also obvious in kudos counts, not that I care about anyone's opinion, just observations. Same total energy expenditure, same average leg watts, but since there's a motor, it's considered cheating.
    Sorry for the mememe. I enjoyed the podcast with Lael! She's inspirational and still unbelievable how she manages these ultra-endurance rides!

  • @10ktube
    @10ktube Před 3 měsíci +2

    This was incredible. I always wish people would ask what the recovery after an event of these durations. Do they sleep for 4 days straight? How long until you ride a bike again? Is your Garmin recovery advisor telling you it hates you after a race like that?

    Really good interview! Lael is awesome! I still watch the 2019 vid "I Just Want To Ride" when they all got stuck at Brush Mountain Lodge. To heck with all the haters! That would not have been filmed, or would have been bits and pieces, if it hadn't been for that media crew.

    @yumyumhungry Před rokem +6

    As to your question of who is riding the divide, I did it since my company offers a 6 week sabatical for everyone who works there for 5+ years. Also count me among one of the people who was inspired by lael's 2019 documentary to do it.

      Taylor was touring in sandals and flat pedals. Lael is a great athlete on her own right. I was riding with her and she doesn't go crazy fast but she "just" keeps moving! And with a smile!
