You are amazingly composed throughout this... roll through the end and do a lil fist pump. I am a so dramatic and sound like I’m about to die when I go after QOMs. 😂 #goals
Drake, Loved the video and commentary, have also been following you since 2018 just after your Tour of the Hilltowns Cat 5 win, and Mt. Washington 2nd place finish. Good luck with all your endeavors, it's been fun watching.
Nice video Drake. Been following you off and on since we raced the Tokeneke Classic together in 2018. And by together I mean you rode off the front of the Cat 5 race and finished with the Cat 4 guys. Awesome to see your progression, good luck with everything in the future!
You have the Rower's Heart Rate Drake. There is gal here on Maui who was a collegiate rower. Her Cycling Heart Rate had crazy low numbers. Lowest I have ever seen for what she was pushing. That is a great pace with huge power numbers my friend. Your ability to blend your physical and thought process in a balance is obvious listening to your words. At 22 there is lots of good ahead for you Drake.
Dude my best time is like 40 something mins. But I’m almost 60 and 200 lbs. 😂. I disagree about people saying it’s demotivating. I find it inspires me to ride. Well done !!
I think something close to this is archievable for most people with very much and well structured training. But most people dont have strong willpower and motivation
Holy hell...heading up Piuma at 17 MPH is not normal. That's in my neighborhood and a regular fave...10 MPH avg. would represent a nice effort. Dude is a beast.
Awesome work! And to think I'm pleased with myself doing this at half the watts and half the speed :-) By the way, what software did you use to stick the head unit data onto the video?
@@DrakeDeuel haha. Companies like Garmin are never great at software -- don't get me wrong as I have, like, and constantly use a pile of Garmin devices -- but as a very experienced software guy (decades as a AAA video game lead programmer, entrepreneur etc) I always find the software janky at best.
Savage! Great effort. What distance setting did have for tracking the rear? 1, 2, or 3? Thinking of getting this for moto content on my channel, thanks in advance.
This was set on the closest distance setting. I’m planning on trying out further away for future videos though, as I think it would be cool to get more context in the shot.
@@DrakeDeuel Right on. Keep the content coming! I’m really digging the approach to your channel. I’ve recently started cycling (3 months now) & find it really meditative. Thanks for sharing the info, maybe I’ll catch you one of these days out there. Cheers!
are you riding on the trainer while you're doing the voice-over? lol i think La Grange does some of the km markers, they have an annual Piuma Hillclimb
Hi Drake, not to get off topic, but will you be doing the Mt. Washington Road race this year? Would be awesome to watch a video of your training on that brutal climb. Congrats on your KOM. Looking forward to watching more vids on your channel.
I think we raced DOWN this road in 1985 when I was a junior. Nest Mountain road race. 7 miles up. 7 miles down, x 2 laps. The upward portion was Mulholland and Stunt Rd. Good work, young man.
@@DrakeDeuel Do you know the backstory on his local KOMs? Thorfinn Sasquatch (on Strava) was found to be hopped-up on EPO after testing positive at Masters Natz. Phil retired right around this time and took it upon himself to target each of Thorfinn's KOMs. And the rest is history.
It has a safety feature enabled called the “height floor” where it won’t go below 8 feet, so higher than anyone else on the road most like. It’s also very good at avoiding obstacles, but it does make me a little nervous still.
@@DrakeDeuel Just beware of FAA regs. I believe that (at any altitude) a drone must be under the user's control at all times. My 17/YO son has a high-tech drone and he's almost scared me with how far away he's sent it!
great run brother.. 80 PSI? i weugh 126lbs at 5 foot 5 i run 68 rear and 62 front 25mm TUBELESS also wanted some tips.....so its more beneficial to be on the drops to cut wind at 4 percent gradinet? also did you stay in big ring below 4 percent grade?
I was in the little ring the whole way up, 36t. The drops are generally less aero than hoods with bent elbows, but I always descend in the drops because it’s safer.
@@DrakeDeuel gonna be some hitters. Mike’s Bike just registered their guys yesterday. Also have a Cat2/3 field if you wanna jump in for some upgrade points. Hit me up on IG @mrmarktucker if you have questions or need housing assistance
Hi!! Favoulous number in watt and cadence. Do you usually before this "race" to try to beat a KOM some supplements pre race? Something like jack3d or something like that? Thanks for the advice
@@DrakeDeuel Compliments!! In the past I run i a team of under 23 in swiss now I'm amatuer racer with a an FTP of 370 but I'm weight 79 kg and my heigh is 183 cm, so I have to lose 2-3 kg. Caffeine pills like 20/30 minutes before your try to beat a KOM? Thanks ^^
@@DrakeDeuel If can I ask, what brand of caffeine pills do you suggest or do you use? There are so many in internet, I would like to ask you as I see your experience ^^ Thanks a lot.
Definitely the rim brake version of that SuperSix Evo would be faster up Piuma. It’s just a balance of weight/aero though, nobody is making modern aero rim brake bikes
I could've held that power for 60 seconds, after a rest week, and a good night's sleep, and 2 cups of coffee.
This drone perspective is is insane. Even more crazy that there's no one operating it.
Do you or does anybody know which Drone it is?
I agree. This is sick!
I fear that every Ferrari and Lamborghini owner in LA will have one as of next week. And that is a lot of drones 🤓 By the way, fantastic video

Having suffered up that climb, watching you actually have to corner up some those turns was amazing. Great effort man!

your voice is so tranquil for a savage effort
Great effort and awesome perspective with the drone.
Great job, congratulations. I really enjoy the perspective of the drone behind you. It gave a nice view of the effort.
Great job Drake! Thanks for upping the ante, this is a big KOM!
Super cool footage, and a great riding effort. Killed it!

Yoo incredible effort!! But can we talk about the drone.... WOW!
congrats!! keep on riding & filming!!
Those numbers warrant a channel subscription. Fine ride!
Congratulations 🎊 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 on your KOM Drake!!
thats a nice road dude. awesome effort
Great video, speechless performance. See you out there Drake!!
@Drake Deuel Great video, great voice-over, stunning ride. Incredible.
Awesome content Drake!
When genetics and smart training match together!
Outstanding! 👍
Thank you for sharing!!! 👍🏽
nice ride! smooth pedaling all the way up
Dude my best time is like 40 something mins. But I’m almost 60 and 200 lbs. 😂. I disagree about people saying it’s demotivating. I find it inspires me to ride. Well done !!
Inspiration!
Impressive, congrats
420W for 20 minutes. Jesus. Its just demotivating how out of reach these kinds of numbers are.
its motivating
@@Bayo106 definitely not motivating lol no way most people can work a day job and do that.
Yeah this dude must have crazy good genes. He's only been cycling for a couple years and he puts down crazy watts
Yeah its insane - my its 5 minute power but I'm 6'6" 205#
I think something close to this is archievable for most people with very much and well structured training. But most people dont have strong willpower and motivation
Great effort
Next video I want a POV of those quadssss
Wow nice work. Keep it up.. see you on the road I hope.. Gibraltar next ?
Up next Haleakala in Maui…
Drake, Amazing Climbing! Video is great; what drone/camera did you use?

Just a game-changing vid. The autonomous drove footage is next level. But not as impressive as your wattage! Well done, lad.
Tank.
Awesome work! And to think I'm pleased with myself doing this at half the watts and half the speed :-) By the way, what software did you use to stick the head unit data onto the video?

One question, why to much cadence?
Cheers from Portugal
“spin to win” I find that I can sustain the power easier with high cadence

I'm on the waiting list currently, but I think it's likely that I can find a spot for the race, so hopefully I will be there.
@@DrakeDeuel Sweet! Hope you make it.

Stunt Road is another great climb that I’ll do soon. Phil has the KOM for Stunt as well.

@@DrakeDeuel Just curious, do you worry about the drone during this? I'd worry that it'd catch a runner, another cyclist, or something else.
It has a safety feature enabled called the “height floor” where it won’t go below 8 feet, so higher than anyone else on the road most like. It’s also very good at avoiding obstacles, but it does make me a little nervous still.

Thanks, the app for overlay is Garmin Virb
@@DrakeDeuel Awesome thanks for that! nice work on the Hawaiian KOM, thats some serious effort!
Great vid! What road are you climbing from the start?
I’m on Piuma Road the whole time, you can see the street signs of the intersection shortly after the beginning of the video
@@DrakeDeuel Thanks! Is the climb easier than Las Flores?
Chowchilla Criterium 4/3/21- Looks like a couple of your teammates have registered on BikeReg. You should race too. First USAC race in CA
I’m considering it…8 hours of driving round trip for a 60 minute crit is pretty hard to stomach though
@@DrakeDeuel gonna be some hitters. Mike’s Bike just registered their guys yesterday. Also have a Cat2/3 field if you wanna jump in for some upgrade points. Hit me up on IG @mrmarktucker if you have questions or need housing assistance

Hi!! Favoulous number in watt and cadence. Do you usually before this "race" to try to beat a KOM some supplements pre race? Something like jack3d or something like that? Thanks for the advice
Thanks, the only supplement that I’ll have before an effort like this is some caffeine. Usually I’ll take a 200mg caffeine pill.

@@andreatombolato7878 Nice, I’ll usually take caffeine more like 45-60 minutes before as I think caffeine peaks after an hour
@@DrakeDeuel If can I ask, what brand of caffeine pills do you suggest or do you use? There are so many in internet, I would like to ask you as I see your experience ^^ Thanks a lot.
I don’t think it matters particularly. I’ve used the CVS brand in the past, now I have a generic brand off Amazon.
Amazing climb! Does your bike fit in your car with both wheels on? Nice car by the way.
No, I have to take both wheels off. It’s not hard though, and I can fit a few bikes in there with the wheels off
It’s good you can fit a few in there, I wouldn’t have thought more than one! Happy cycling 😺
"internship ended, and unemployed". LOL my internship ended last week and now I'm unemployed also... At least I have more time for riding.
What kind of drone do u have and how is it following u
Skydio 2 skydio.com/skydio-2
It uses a combination of visual tracking with cameras alongside a GPS signal from a beacon in my pocket
Drake, do you think a lightweight, rim-brake aero frame would be faster on an effort like this?
Definitely the rim brake version of that SuperSix Evo would be faster up Piuma.
It’s just a balance of weight/aero though, nobody is making modern aero rim brake bikes
what happened to your previous videos?
I wanted to start with a fresh slate, as a lot of time has passed, and I’m going to make a different style of video.
what is your weight?
Looks like you gotta go back and take this one back! Who the heck is Sean quinn
Yep, gonna be tough to get that one back
Wonder how long before Phil makes a run at this again? LOL
He can't take it back anymore. He's over the hill already. No way he's getting faster now
What is your current weight?
around 154 pounds or so
@@DrakeDeuel I heard you say that right after I typed it in...LOL
"I think this guy's going for the no helmet KOM" hahaha
Very fast, not quite as fast as me, but close
Haha, one thumbs down...must be a PG fan!
Land of the free, you could be fined up to 50000€ flying a drone on a road in germany :D (dangerous interference with road traffic)
Nice effort!
