- Floyd Bennet Field, Cat 5, July 30th 2019! What a throwback! Who remembers my Cat 5 days?? I've come a long ways. This was the biggest mistake I made in my early days, and I still almost make it every time I race. We gotta stay sharp out there!

Glad to have you back!!
You're a huge inspiration! Skateboarding, surfing, cycling, CZcams!! Never would have guessed your age either.
And to look back at your cycling progression is impressive-you've come a long way! Keep it up!
Thanks! Happy to be making more videos this season!
Welcome back!
Thanks! Let’s get this season underway!
Made the same mistake myself in my first race too except I'd watched your first race and thought I'd be ok but it turns out if you drop your head even just for a few seconds as you sit in the draft, it turns out you might be following THAT guy that has nothing left and has resigned himself to getting dropped.
I love these videos -- looking forward to trying my first crit at Floyd when the series starts this summer!
Awesome, see you there!
Aww the world is right again, Claudio is back!!!
Thaaaaaanks
I just did my first race a month ago, and you nailed it with my worries as a beginner, my fitness and getting dropped. I don't know my FTP, but it's probably not very high. I got dropped on lap one of the road race.
Going to another race this weekend, so I'll hopefully be able to keep up for longer.
Just did my second ever road race this past weekend, and I managed to finish with the group! I did get dropped on the crit the next day. Going to another road race and crit next weekend. Hope I can keep up in the crit this time and keep up again in the road race.
When the rider in front is bailing out it’s an easy excuse to bail out with him, I think it’s a mental tiredness and easier just to give up
Similar thing happened to me at PP. I chased an attacked but I didn’t knew it was for the KOM 🤣. I was dropped on 3rd lap.
So painful to watch! I made that exact same mistake in a previous race, and it wasn’t even an attack 😩
Wow Claudio, you do not look 40. Tbh you could say you're in your early 30s and I'd believe you. Visit Dallas for Turbo Velo crit on Tuesdays. Easy if you like 15-20 mph winds
🙌
Biggest mistake happens in 1st 10 secs. Garmin out front mount rather than integrated aero. Costs you 60w 😂
Why do you scream??
