Norton Summit SMASH FEST!

[@marshallalbritton9521]

Really enjoy these Norton Summit videos.

[@Revolg88]

back with the cycling videos again. Love it mate. thank you for the uploads and all you do. I hope your neck is doing well. blessed to have found your channel 10 years ago on youtube and changed my life for the better. A lot has changed in my life over the past 10 years: now largely vegan trying to do better every day, high carb low fat. rocking the TCR advanced SL with RIM BRAKES FOR ROAD and the SPD. How can you dislike this dude: always spitting the truth, always smoking hot girl friend, promotes cycling and the betterment of the planet...

[@JulAlxAU]

I am not fully on board with his rim-brake aspirations, but he’s spot-on with the rest! 👌 Harley is genuine, and that’s the secret of his success.

[@ChinCycling]

I’m glad you started doing these again, love this content

[@Francesco-pr1gs]

This content used to be cycling youtube prime era

[@ViWa-m2q]

Specialized TC tyre, still after all the years, one of the best !

[@joed7185]

Harley with the old school vids! Hell yeah thanks for the upload. Keep them coming.

[@thomasslater6490]

Love these videos DR watched the ones in the old days too. You’re going well on the bike atm sir

[@nathanp8240]

25,000km a year is wild, that's a lot of big rides from 290 rides in the year. I commute to work every day (18km each way) plus extras and do about 7,500km from 390 rides for the year and I'm knackered! Big gap between your average Joe and the big boys!

[@Jlomo97]

More bunch videos please!

[@rivercloud32]

Still out here smashing

[@michaeltucker35]

Gold standard durian rider! Love it

[@Luke-md4hb]

Love these vids and the commentary, gets me motivated to get out and cycle + get a rim break bike 🤣🤣🤝

[@durianriders]

Life too short to ride faffy slugs of road bikes!

[@cheeng1]

There’s always someone faster. Great stuff Durian.

[@TLoc-t9z]

Great to see more cycling POV….this is why I subbed many years ago. Looking forward to some TDU footage. Is Uncle Chester and the watermelon helmet going to be on corkscrew? Saw you there in 2019 on the e-bike😂

[@durianriders]

I’m sure Chester is coming down this year 😉

[@radut18]

Incredible. Durian only 12 seconds slower with 10 times less training. If you had 24000km you would be 10 km/h faster than that bunch that droped you🎉🎉

[@djdeliboy]

Yesssss! We all come here to see this only!

[@amyvoborsky4074]

Crushing it as always. Nice work.

[@Fresh79999]

Hard to pick my fav climb in Adelaide, but Norton is def up there

[@DrakeHallGames]

Congested at that level is really impressive especially for an over 40 wow!

[@danielcovert1023]

I love your riding videos

[@el_carbonara]

What is the equivalent 5k time for those top norton times if you are legit and not a fake?

[@BaravullinBeag-r6l]

Best cycling content on you tube 💪..

[@Stojan993]

DR back with best content 🎉

[@finallyawakened3350]

This was interesting. Thanks.

[@justinblom8838]

Great video! Keep them coming!

[@philiptarry702]

Looked like Maeve Plouffe in the group at start. Still wearing her DSM kit

[@Velographer]

Love this video! You’re a machine 😅😅😅

[@jeanluc397]

Hey Harley, not sure if you want to get into this topic here but what happened on this video brings up a very interesting topic to me. HOW MUCH VOLUME DO YOU REALLY NEED BEST BANG FOR BUCK!!! I'm trying to do least amount of riding with maximum fitness and I know there is a way. everyone around me does 2-4x volume what I do but I keep up fine never really seen any studies about this. cheers. Rim Brakes Forever !

[@thepatternforms859]

What’s your saddle set back? How far behind bottom bracket are you?

[@conorgoodman5731]

Love it 🔥

[@Powsimian]

PROPER!

[@drewbuffington]

Race Donny P on Zwift a lot. Good man.

[@dailydoseofschyzo]

Hey harley I started taking 20mg dbol daily and im 2 weeks in right now, but I haven't had my weight move at all! I keep hearing other people say how dbol just blows you up with water weight but that has not happened to me. It is pharmaceutical grade dbol mind you, What do you think is the problem here? Is the dose just too low? I'm 72kg I want to reach 80kg.

[@durianriders]

Join my coaching group and let’s go over every variable. www.Durianrider.com Why waste time, money and health? I went from 59kg ripped to 85.3kg ripped remember. I know what it takes at either end.

Hey I wanna do your protocol and have been for the last few days but I don’t want to get cavities. Doesn’t sugar feed the bacteria that then produce acid in the teeth? How u prevent that?

[@durianriders]

Get an xray on all your teeth. I’d be VERY suprised if you are over 30 with zero cavities. If sugar causes cavities then how zero sugar people get cavities??

[@flameone4705]

@ I am under 30 and had 5 cavities, had to get 5 fillings over the years. I see that high carb is better than high fat but I don’t want to get anymore cavities. What’s your way of preventing cavities?

[@gregkane8635]

Bigger tyres proven multiple sources to be faster (including myself going from 25-28 the 28 is quicker 100%) but the skinny stuff “feels” faster. Lighter bike helps though 😝

[@durianriders]

Faster on cobbles yes. Hill climbs on tarmac? IMPOSSIBLE!! Extra weight and extra drag.

[@gregkane8635]

@ not everywhere (pretty much nowhere) has perfect glass tarmac it’s broken cracked and potholed- wider rolls faster up and down. Also gives more grip :) if uve a perfect road yea take the narrow high pressure stuff but that road is a rarity

[@ThePot63]

Rim Brakes For The Win, have Both and i like my rim brakes

[@annawinstonsmith533]

Hello Durianrider, what is the minimum hemoglobin level for a woman to be full of energy? From what threshold do you consider anemia? Because the laboratories have very low ranges

[@durianriders]

Depends on the individual and other biometrics and their goals. It’s why I do in-depth coaching so we can cover ALL the bases.

[@michaelsteven1090]

Lots of fit riders!

[@clmnorman33]

Awesome video. You need to take your own advice and get in better position at the start of the climb. You spent a ton of energy faffing around for position in the first 3 minutes, if you had been 4th or 5th wheel from the start you would have held on 20-30” longer. Great effort though

[@durianriders]

True but a boring video to watch. I’m riding these to get footage of all the riders in the bunch so tactics go out the window a bit. These GoPros ain’t light either and cost time. Next week I will move up sooner and avoid getting gapped by being on the wrong wheel.

[@clmnorman33]

@@durianridersI wouldn’t find it boring but yeah see your point

[@888jucu]

What time do the Super Elliots ride leave the shop? Will be in Adelaide next week will try to join the ride up NS even though I know Im gonna get smashed 🤪🤣.

[@durianriders]

8am Rundle St. Stay at the back if you never raced A grade ❤️

[@888jucu]

@ Thanks for the timing 👍. I have raced A grade but 30years ago so I will definitely be at the back 🤪🙏

[@888jucu]

@@durianriders Did it, got smashed as expected but loved it. Didnt see you pass me until you posted a follow up video the other day but I could see from ur vid I was just fully focused on holding the wheel in front 😬💪

[@lukefennell4944]

Hi Harley or any other experienced vegan athletes hclf diet how can you maintain a lean weight without getting too light on the protocol, I eat 70g fat a day the rest lots of sugar and carbs and yet I am still very lean. What do I do… is fat only bad if you are fat? I train a lot… because it is my favourite thing ever would you just add even more fats: nuts avocados etc or would you increase carbs even more Thanks

[@dr.merlot1532]

The fat soft tires makes no sense to me. I still ride 23s.

[@CyclingMessiah]

What would you need to be able to win that bunch race ?

[@durianriders]

If you can do 11:30ish up Nortons then vo2max wise you can win any race in Australia technically.

[@yvngchvp8695]

Have you ever tried to run up Norton Summit?

[@durianriders]

I’ve got the KOM

[@Pablo_Coach]

Lot of disc brakes bikes 😂

[@JP-om3ou]

Do a review on Tadej new COLNAGO bike

[@durianriders]

I have ✌️

[@JP-om3ou]

@ ok I’ll watch

[@moonwrasse]

You don’t ride with power anymore?

[@durianriders]

This is my race bike so power don’t matter. Holding the wheels only matters. Would have been around 5.2wkg today for me based on my weight and time and conditions.

[@harrisr.7979]

Fast group yes. Physiology top tier riders no way.

[@durianriders]

Got to remember you can ONLY be at top physical values for a few weeks a year and ONLY with oxygen vector ‘supplements’. You would get dropped in the first 7-9 seconds remember. This is the FITTEST bunch in Australia. Maybe the world?

[@harrisr.7979]

@ I would definitely get dropped! Always enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work!!

[@Siegfried5846]

Should you be eating lentils and beans as a swimmer?

[@durianriders]

What’s your goal?

[@Siegfried5846]

@durianriders Have six pack abs but also not lose my natural muscle and maybe gain some extra and also be a fast swimmer

[@JulAlxAU]

How did you conclude that this is the fastest bunch in Australia, mate?

[@durianriders]

I’m not sure of anyone who has ridden more bunches in Oz than me OR the people I talk to (which is a LOT of top level road riders). Can anyone post strava data of bunch rides where the top 10 bros clock over 400w for an over 10 min climb. CAN ANYONE? ❤️😂

[@radut18]

At 28 seconds slower, there is a woman? 😮😮😮 In 5:08

[@nealkinevil]

A good day

[@mckyv731]

You given up on the park runs ?

[@durianriders]

Had an ankle injury I made really bad by trying to get the most wins at my local parkrun. Then they scrapped the leader board so I’ve not had a reason to go back since March I think it was. Also this ride is same time as parkrun. So have to pick one.

[@radut18]

10 times more training, useless. Go Durian 🎉

[@durianriders]

Not useless but not the ROI you might think.

[@TESTA-CC]

Goodman D 🤙🤙

[@CoronaEla]

Are they peopl beating you all doing your diet?

[@durianriders]

How on earth can you put out 400w for 10 mins + if you ain’t on the sugar and water train or a gut full of meat etc. It’s fact you need certain gut bacteria also to push watts. Only a high carb plant dominate/full diet gives those performance bacteria environments.

[@CoronaEla]

@durianriders Ur saying U need good gut bacteria? high fruit mostly offer that, does white rice have any good bacteria

[@anthonymian1242]

Thanks for showing us riders but can you just go full gas next week and teach these kids a lesson. IYKYK.

[@durianriders]

For me to chop a minute off my time would require me to train a lot lot more. These kids are some of the best in Australia. Which means some of the best in the world.

[@anthonymian1242]

@durianriders you are the man. I respect it. Currently looking for a rim brake bike myself IYKYK.

[@Pablo_Coach]

What a BS. Bike not really matter, good racer win on average bike, but slower racer don’t win on best bike of the world

[@durianriders]

What next? Body fat don’t matter? Blood values don’t matter?? Do you even ride brah? 😂❤️ EVERY GRAM AND WATT SAVED MATTERS IF YOU WANT TO BE YOUR FASTEST!

[@Pablo_Coach]

@ when it comes to human body „features” that i agree that BF, blood parameters and very other variables matter much. I told that bike itself no really matter and You can smash on steel bike simeone who is not trained properly.

[@Pablo_Coach]

@ oh, and another thing: on too stiff bike you are slower and more exhausted, so proper flex (on proper direction) is important. Like proper tyre pressures. Durian, You lost many KOMs by „heavy and flexy” disc brakes, so IYKYK 🤣

[@el_carbonara]

saw a bro with a lab 71 supersix in the bunch, jesus $$$$. Is he a lawyer?

[@durianriders]

Bike shop owner ✌️ #freebike

[@el_carbonara]

adelaide bunch rides up norton is where it's at if you are legit, puts the sydney pretenders in their rapha kit and dentist bikes to shame

[@funkychickenthesecond2102]

There’s quite a few dentist bikes in that Adelaide bunch in the vid too mate.
