My final ZWIFT race for the Hill Climb Championship!

[@E.M.B.R]

VO2 Max climbs like this hurt more than the long ones at threshold. It becomes mental as much as physical. Great effort pushing through and great pacing.

[@RideWithGerben]

Thank you. This was indeed a mental game. It hurt a lot! 😅

[@Mickwhyer]

max effort! that was a hell of a ride man!

[@RideWithGerben]

Thank you!! Glad I am done with this series 😅

[@CoenP]

Wat een taaie klim. Super gereden. Dank voor je video’s dit jaar. Goed uiteinde en tot 2025

[@RideWithGerben]

Dankjewel Coen voor het kijken. Ook jij een mooi 2025 toegewenst!

Congratulations Gerben! For a guy from flatland country you climb very well all virtual hills! Sad to see so many races disappearing from Zwift lineup offers.

[@RideWithGerben]

Yes. ZWIFT racing is in a bit of trouble now. Hopefully it gets better soon 🙏

[@mfowler4651]

Ha, I do the same thing. taking those free kilometers for points. Great effort again!

[@RideWithGerben]

Yes! XP is XP. 😄

[@FoliFlipper]

Great man!!! It is such a pity that so many races and race series are vanishing on ZWIFT :-((((... and long races with hard courses... my impression... Saludos

[@RideWithGerben]

Yes. Zwift is culling hard right now. It is what it is and I take what I can get :D

[@SteakandChains]

[@SteakandChains]

[@RideWithGerben]

[@ahnilatedahnilated7703]

Another great job Gerben! You were way ahead of the other riders at the end, 3+ mn. 😎

[@RideWithGerben]

I had some time to change bikes :D

[@patrickj4747]

Did you have a power target to pace that? I enjoy your videos. Thank you.

[@RideWithGerben]

Yes. I did want to reach my best 10 minute power on this one, so I kept the curve as flat as possible.

[@vasilis3059]

[@RideWithGerben]

Thank you!!! And a happy new year to you too!!!
