FREE SPEED on Long Bike Races or Gran Fondos?

[@gregtitus2467]

I agree, the title is click bait. This video is not about HOW to ride your bike faster (and somehow get some magical free speed), but how to manage your time utilizing Aid stations so you're not wasting time standing around when you should be moving on your bike. I don't know why anyone in a race would stop at an Aid station if they didn't really need to, so what I learned from this video re: time management, was just about zero. The content of this video is so much common sense that I don't understand why it was posted to KZbin. And the click bait strategy is offensive.

So I laid out the entire premise of the video within the first 15 seconds, and you’re butt hurt that I’m wasting your time? Get a life. Many riders carry two bottles and little to no food. Avoiding aid stations by carrying significantly more water or food on long rides or races takes significant logistical planning and there are trade offs.
