      That is tooo much for you Vincent. If you get a bike with huge gears you can beat anybody. (almost) Couse bigger gears you need to use more muscle power, tiny gears you get tired couse you need to spin faster... Rematch with Huge gear bikes I guarantee you beat those kids. :D

      You would be surprised, track sprinters are pretty decent in the gym all things considered. Obviously they don't be moving the kind of weight a bodybuilder probably lifts but still quite powerful. To give you an idea, I was very weak when it came to the gym portion of training (compared to everyone else) and my max for squat was 365lbs, 450lbs for deadlift and 225lbs for bench.

      @@WesternUranus Chris Hoy is not exactly an emaciated lightweight, but yeah, not quite as bulky on the upper body as Obi.
      With the proper training/coaching, he could do quite well in match sprints, flying 500s, and maybe even the kilo.
      Any event shorter than a pursuit, where his upper body mass/bulk will be an absolute impediment due to the 'aero' penalty, should be in Obi's 'wheelhouse', due to the inherent strength of his workouts, despite being not 'cycling specific'. ;)

    I'm also large (113kg /230lbs - but dropping)
    I'm losing on the climbs. Always. But when weight is finally on speed, it keeps rolling and takes just little effort to hold the pace.
    Beeing larger means more rolling mass but just a little loss in aero. It's a positive outcome.

    Obi is in amazing shape, but there is a reason cyclists are not that shape. You only need to be able to bench 6.8kg in cycling, not 680kg.

      Track cyclists can probably bench 10-15 times that weight. Track cycling is mostly about strenght, opposed to road cycling where is all about endurance, and thus the different body types seen on each discipline.
