This is the bleeding edge of coverage - ebike chase, fpv drone, heli, stationary - imo the ebike chase is brilliant!! 🤘😆🤘interleave rider interview!! congrats!!

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Thanks for the props! Our team works hard to bring you the best coverage we can. Gotta say tho, sometimes there are just too many great stories to pick from!

[@mi-xc]

Appreciate the quick recap turn around!

[@alexdobi1]

Big thanks to @MaverickHelicopters

[@strobo4unl]

Pure class giving a shoutout to MO’s foundation and ride.

[@edlaverack]

Hats off to the media team for a quick turnaround for a big day like this one! Love watching these!!

[@cjthedj5217]

17:28 an accurate description of me every time I crash

[@RobertJohnson-bj5lk]

“Cuffing Stupid Sport!!!” I love it. He’s just saying what we’re all thinking every time we crash that hard. Also, if you see someone pointing a quality camera right at you near the end of long downhill, bad news is coming, and they plan to document it all.

[@ebhkkc1]

Going to be very nice to watch these within 48 hours post race. Thank you

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

We've got a great team putting these together, stay tuned for more!

[@10hungtran]

Wow. Amazing job Life Time Grand Prix with these race video recaps. Next level. So exciting to watch!!! Can't wait to see Unbound. Woot!

[@PaavoKotiaho]

Great change of format - thank you!! Suggestion: slow down the leaderboard graphic run-through mid-episode just ever so slightly. Currently its a bit tough to follow (especially while on a trainer 😅).

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Thanks for the tip!

[@Dou8leShot]

Yep. I paused it to read. :)

[@hamburglerhelper326]

pause the video?

[@Blotchee]

16:22 Matt Beers looks like a dad on an afternoon ride with his kids 😂

[@alanditch2408]

There's nothing like the Beers train !

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

choo choo 🚂 💨

[@neilk22]

Beers is probably the only racer here that will give Keegan a go this year.

[@k2ski97]

Men & women in the same coverage! This is the future of sport!! Loving this format!

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

We think so too!

[@downwhimsyavenue]

This is some of the best content out there. I'm a roadie and a runner, and yet I REFUSE to miss anything Life Time Grand Prix publishes. Top notch production.

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Thanks for following along, it's gonna be a great season!

[@lorax25]

Great format. I really like the longer programmes with more background on the riders, the event, everything! Thanks to the riders, support staff, production, filming, all involved. Keep it up.

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

More to come!

[@urouroniwa]

I'm so grateful. You have no idea how starved I am for bicycle race coverage. Finally somebody doing it right.

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Love to hear it! Thanks for tuning in and subscribing - more to come!

[@roadcyclist1]

This is not real bicycle racing...

[@rlm4471]

Did you not watch the spring classics?

[@urouroniwa]

@@rlm4471 How would you recommend to watch the pro racing from Japan?

[@MartinMcShaneMScMSMRCGPMA]

Better than Netflix!😍

[@scottbromley5151]

In future episodes could you please lower the volume of the music when people are talking?

[@and30ers]

Or even better, remove all stupid music. I had to stop watching this shit, would love to see the actual racing but this production sucks. Cuts, cuts, 5 sec racing, cuts, stupid cliche words from riders pre racing, cuts, music, more cuts, 5 sec racing, cuts, cuts.

[@pss999]

Loved this, but just a bit of constructive feedback: I personally found the background music (when watched via KZbin app on a high end Samsung smart TV) way too loud (and overdone). But great that you made it available so quick... fun to watch!

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Thanks for the tips!

[@kevinw3621]

Rest in peace Champ - Mo Wilson.. what an amazing ride.. lost too soon - makes me so sad and angry..

[@shalakabooyaka1480]

at the 2:56 he was talking about the video series, and I was thinking I just wish they were longer, then hovered over the vid and saw 50 mins. Nice.

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Glad we could deliver for ya!

[@user-iq3bg9ll7t]

Awesome with the quick turnaround on production of this video. One thing, though, and you're not the only one doing it. When you add punchy music like the violins and drums in the first 6 minutes...it's really hard to hear what the people being interviewed are saying with the music that loud...it's too much.

[@beetroot6591]

yes i totally agree. the music is too loud and too much.

[@mi-xc]

As the series continues, would love to see a little camera time given to some of the Top 10 LTGP racers. Amazing to see the battle at the front, but the BEST OF THE REST is also good!

[@dadlife8289]

Wow this is crazy to have this high of a production so soon after the event. Love the video length too. Excited even more to race Unbound

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Thanks!

[@jkelleypga]

Love the quick turn on these!

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

More to come!

[@tellit_one3613]

Well done! Finally put all the pieces together in the coverage. Feedback: lower background music a little! Well done!!!

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Noted!

[@kevinw3621]

The mix will be different depending on what you are listening to it on.. ( iPad, computer, tv etc.. on iPad it seems nicely in the background..

[@tellit_one3613]

@@kevinw3621 Thanks for that information . On my phone it was loud.

[@pss999]

On my Samsung TV it was also super loud.

[@Gabrielle4870]

It's good music but it should complement, but not overpower... it's a fine line. Well done on the overall edit though!

[@dweyhrauch09]

My wife is my best friend, accomplished, gorgeous, mother of my two amazing boys, and I love her almost as much as I love the Lifetime Grand Prix Media Team. Thanks guys for promoting this great series! Grateful for what you're doing for the sport and along for the ride.

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Hey now, you're too kind to mention us in the same breath!

[@pierrex3226]

Great coverage, we get a sense of how hard it is to cover a mountain bike race. Would be great to have longer chase sequences from one of the ebikes to get a better feel for the track they're riding. Here there were so many jump cuts that it wasn't as immersive as it could have been.

[@livingwithfshd]

how did Matt Beers get 3rd when sick. what a machine

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

You can say that again...

[@nickyd358]

So rad to watch this, thank you covering an epic race day!

[@MooreMatt]

This format is much more entertaining. 👌

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Glad you're enjoying it!

[@Johnpvb]

Love watching while I ride the trainer 🚴🏻‍♂️

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Helps to tick off those minutes!

[@sanchepito03]

These guys (including Payson with his race recaps) will make us addicted to LTGP content, amazing to see!

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

There is so much going on in every race it's impossible to cover all the storylines...we love to see those recaps too!

[@drewbutler833]

Love the recap! The race footage from the drones, helicopter, and e-bikes is next level this year! I really enjoyed hearing from the people behind the event and seeing more of the expo too. Hope to get more of this for the other races!

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

So glad you're enjoying it!

[@Tmutombo]

Hey Eurosport, Flobikes, F1 , MotoGP and everyone else. This is how a race highlight reel is done! Well done Life Time Grand Prix crew!

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

You're awesome, thanks! We will share with the crew!

[@kentvoss2113]

That was awesome! Huge kudos to LifeTime, Mazda and Cold Collaborative! I can't wait to watch these all season!

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

This season is off to a great start!

[@AaronCorcoran1]

Amazing-love the coverage!

[@tomhenry3062]

Loved the coverage over the past couple of seasons but this is awesome that you are putting it out throughout the year. Super excited to watch extended highlights straight after each event!

[@robthompson6674]

As others are saying, you guys did a superlative job telling the stories inside the event and releasing such a polished, compelling recap mere days after the race. Very, very impressive stuff.

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Thanks for following along! More to come!

[@SoManyMiles]

Goose bumps! Life Time Events crew, thank you so much for the amazing race coverage and production. This is by far the most exciting and inspiring race series I have ever watched. Can‘t wait for the upcoming episodes of the third season. The newly added E-bike footage is superb too.

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Right?! Our team works hard to put together a show that takes viewers through the exhilarating race action!

[@darrellstyner0001]

I enjoyed the series last year, but you've taken it to a new level. Love the quick turnaround and greater concentration on the actual race. I think you've struck the right balance between interviews and race footage. Well done!

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

It's these kinds of comments that really get the team 🔥 'd up! Thanks Darrell!

From Australia, it looks amazing, very well formulated and run. Monterey has to be one of the best MTB courses I've seen, great location.

Couldn't agree more! Sea Otter is a pretty special event, whether you’re racing or just hanging out!

[@xmateinc]

This was awesome!

[@coreyreeder3549]

It’s amazing to see just how quickly you were able to get this incredible product out. Great coverage! Somehow I wish you could capture more of the experience for most of us mid packers. I like racing. But I would like gravel even without the elite racers

Good content really fast turn around can't wait for the next one. Feedback: If possible can we get more info on the people not in the top 5, I know the cameras are focused on the leaders, but in post I'd love to hear commentary on everyone else. Where was Russell did he have issues?

[@LifeTimeGrandPrix]

Great feedback, thanks! We're always looking to improve our game. Unfortunately Finsterwald suffered a flat tire early in the first lap. Big slice and spent considerable time trying to get going again...he finished and scored a few points - onto Unbound!
