- I got pushed up to A cat a few days ago, and this is my first race in A cat. Not the biggest field ever, but still good fun.

WOW!!! Congrats on A Cat 🎉 Some excellent Zwift craft on show. Taking a win in your first A Cat is awesome. Chapeau 👏💪💪
Cheers Darren. 👊 It's all downhill from here!
What just happened?! Are you 1 for 1 in CAT A? Damn! 100%. What a stud. That was an awesome finish.
Hey dude. Yeah, the streak is real! Streak of one.
That was awesome Lee! Congrats on the win and smashing all those other A's, great sprinting too and 4.2wkg for over 25mins!!! KABOOM 👊💪💪💪
Thank you Mark 👊 I was surprised at the 4.2. I thought I'd been really drafty/efficient in it. 😂 Maybe that was as drafty I could be behind some dude holding 5.7 for basically all of it.
That was awesome Lee. Your channel was the first Zwifting channel I watched and got hooked on. Seeing you promoted to A and then win this race was fantastic mate. 4.2 Watts aswell... 💪
Lazarushian is going to be my next video title.
It's been a long time since Ive been that invested in a sprint finish. I hope you stick at A for a long long time. 🙏👍🙌
Ah, thanks, Ryan. That's really cool of you, mate. 👊
I was pretty lucky here. This will be a complete one off, "Goldilocks zone" race. I'll get destroyed in all other events. But hopefully it'll force me to make some improvements. And I'll just try to cling to the underside of A cat for as long as I can.
Smoked 'em! Congrats Lee! Welcome to A.
Thanks Paul 👊
Beauty! Congratulations on the upgrade, and then first race a win! Way to go, impressive. Truly impressive!
Thanks JD. A very rare win for ol' man Cassidy.
YES! Obliterated them! What a spiky race, and what a triumph for you and all mankind. And I saw the word Lazarushian for the first time ever, so that was a win for me as well 😅
Thanks Thomas lol I think, as far as A races go, that was probably the kindest intro I could get. Good fun, still. And I had to look Lazarushian up. I thought it would be "Lazarusian", but apparently that's not a thing. Lazarushian it is, then!
Tactical masterclass of a race.. what an amazing display my friend! Congratultions on the mega win, on a top sprint despite you didn't have the aero you managed to hit the front & get the W! Keep it up champion :)
Thanks Darren. Far too kind, I think. But I appreciate it 👊
Lovely finish, Lee. 👏.. the timing looked perfect..
Super steady high wattage too. 💪💪👏
Thanks mate. Glad to get my annual win out the way!
KABOOOOOM!!!
Great stuff, Lee! I particularly liked the first bridge, super timing. But awesome throughout. I find those super high cadence avatars like Kim’s so off putting!
Thanks Rob. 👊
Ah, is that a bug/thing in Zwift? I didn't know about that. I thought he was a bit sus throughout the whole race. Power barely changed. I assumed the cadence was just another pointer to that.
@@lee-cycling those with that type of cadence tend to go quite fast, so I feel similarly. But you beat him regardless!
Well done on getting the upgrade and then confirming you belong at the level with the win!
Thanks Paul! Don't know about the hat last bit, though! I'll get hammered from now on.
Congrats on the upgrade and awesome effort in your first A cat race. Great power you are showing, I really do like this new contender with cow spots, you look to be right at home.
Thanks RT mate. I don't know about the at home bit. I felt like an imposter in B. Absolutely stupid to be in A with people like you. The cow spots are awesome, though!
That’s brilliant, first race as an A and a win, that pretty special well done 👍
Cheers Alan. Made possible by the Zwift Play shims! Thanks again for those 👍
@@lee-cycling ha if that was true I’d have tried them myself 🤔 more a result of your hard work and determination 👍
Oh yeah! This is it. Great timing there! Also that was a bloody sus field you where in. Could be electric bike for at least two of them.
Thanks Gerben. Yeah, two guys held pretty suspiciously even and high power.
Just brilliant, Lee! 🎉 Great racing, big numbers and the win! 🏆 It’s like you were born to ride cat A! 💪 🚲
😂 Thanks Simon. I don't know about that. Actually, I do; I'll be spat out the back of basically every other race. But I will have this to cling on to forever now!
Chapeau!! Really smart racing, great sprint, even got a little fist pump at the end. Congratulations, Lee! 👊🏻🎉
Thanks Jonathan. Apologies for the emotional outburst at the end lol
Thats awesome. 4.2w/kg. I remember when you were worried about going up to B.
Thanks EZ. Yeah, I think it was pretty much one year ago. And I still feel like that, really.
Damn Cat A! Congrats mate
Yeah, they'll allow anyone in these days. Thanks, Georg.
wow cat A. just noticed. Congratulations. Impressive numbers. See, told you if you weren't careful, poof cat A. You won so empty warning. Careful now though next stop A+.
Hey Roger. Hope you're well. Thank you. I think A+ are pretty safe from me, though.
Amazing, Lee.
Strong power all through, and having to deal with those two non ZP riders. I looked at Lee's plot in ZC and looks very odd. Correlation of cadence to power is almost 1:1 so probably a fixed gear bike.
Anyway I digress, amazing!
Thanks Steve. I thought both Lee and Kim were a bit sus throughout . Pretty flat/constant power. But as they weren't on ZP, I thought I'd just do my own thing, and just try to benefit from Lee.
Its way too easy for you.. A+ next!
We have to get you off whatever you're smoking, Ole!
@@lee-cycling I agree.. I need something of what you are on, it seems like it gives watts for days!
