    So happy to hear some real mountain biker language when “body checking” trees. No one is really “Mackey Franklin” nice.

    I absolutely loved this series. Thank you for showing the raw emotions that come out when us non-pros try our hardest for a good time. It’s very refreshing and appreciated. Can’t wait to see your future adventures! Good luck and keep shredding 🤙

    Enjoyed watching your cameos with Syd and Mackey.
    I road bike with a club who has a racing team. Your story is so familiar to the racers I ride with. Work, training and race schedules are very challenging. Good luck and I'm here for the story.

    This is refreshingly un-refreshing content about racing, if that makes any sense. For those of us normal folk with full time jobs who also love to ride and race, this is a great realistic look at how difficult it can be. Love to hear the self-pride talk, you deserve it! Can't wait to see what the rest of the 2024 year brings for you and Joe!

    • @LoSendquest
      @LoSendquest  Před 23 dny

      Thanks so much. I am glad it’s landing. I just want to show and encourage people that you can do a lot with a little!
      Sometimes it’s mentally hard and hurts in my soul because proximity of who I race and hang with.
      But hot damn is normies need to be proud! We are doing the damn thing.

    You definitely raise watching a mountain bike race up a few notches. I am cracking up and enjoying your singing and wise cracks as you pass through the course. You bring a little more fun into the suffering. Also, it's fun to watch you catch and pass other riders up on the downhill tech. Keep it up. Go Lo!

    Everyone thinks frequent business travel is glamorous! They are wrong, but I try to make the best of it. I have a "pro tip": I have a clean travel only pair of comfortable mtb SPD shoes in my travel bag...and I book hotels with a peloton bike. The bikes have guest access (so you don't need to pay) a 30 to 45 minute peloton class is a great way to keep the legs fresh for the weekend.

    • @LoSendquest
      @LoSendquest  Před 23 dny

      I have done that! Sadly the hotel in Miami doesn’t have one. So I do Orange theory or group classes.

    I haven’t been on a bike in years. Don’t know why this popped up in my feed but this is one of the best videos I have seen in a LONG time. Can’t wait to watch older videos and see what comes next for you. May be dangerous though- after just one video I’m thinking maybe I need to go bike shopping this weekend.
