Diaz finished 3rd at World Champs just a few weeks back, and the newly Crowned World Champ with Martin Stozek as Canyon Northwave, but the team with backup is the team to beat. Don’t think Sarrou have it in him to go balls to the wall for 8 days off the back of this past XCO season. Ed zakery... That Scott teams are not just top10 team. Spez have it all to prove.

buchanan Posted October 17, 2021 Share The footage is rubbish. They're just showing the start area and nothing else. Edit: Ok they're finally showing some footage from out on the course now. Edited October 17, 2021 by buchanan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the e-bike video, up the climbs, down hill and more. justinafrika, J Wakefield, KyleThomas and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it definitely got much better! The first 30 minutes when I turned on the TV was literally just the start ramp. But the footage became good once the final riders had set off - hence my edit.

davidtinker Posted October 17, 2021 Share Matt Beers posted power data on Strava so I created a fake account for him on Intervals.icu. To me the power looks unlikely i.e. something up with his PM. https://forum.intervals.icu/t/matt-beers-fake-account/5080 Edited October 17, 2021 by davidtinker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His file is right power wise - Matt is that good Edited October 17, 2021 by J Wakefield justinafrika and DJuice 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matts whole season was based on 2 events: SA Marathon Champs and Cape Epic. Marathon Champs he rode away on the 1st climb and no one saw him again. Today, he rode well. Long way to go but this is how good his form is at present. let’s see what happens for the rest of the week. All the best to him and everyone racing for top honors Frosty, Scary Rider, splat and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Wakefield Posted October 17, 2021 Share As reference he did his best 5min power today but only his 3rd best 10min and 2nd best 20min. the 5 was as expected from the start up 1st climb. 5min is typically your peak power so when you do that math. This is right inline. peetwindhoek, DieselnDust, ChrisF and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is right inline. John are you in SA to provide support? Can’t wait for the stages, was awesome to see Matt come past and power on the false flats. He looks strong and very relaxed in the interviews. How do you rate our ladies team, Mariska and Candice? Hope they can pull it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
