Primož Roglič VS AMATEUR CYCLIST - CLIMBING SESSION (WITH POWER DATA)

Primož Roglič happened to pass me on the way to Nice and I thought I would try to hang on for as long as possible.

[@julioluna3797]

300w is probably zone 2 for him

[@thecyclingdaneACTION]

True hahaha

[@ryanhallman3828]

Only high zone 3 for a strong 70kg amateur...

[@Ifoldforweed]

@@ryanhallman3828 I think it probaly his Zone 2. Depends how much the channel owner weighs.

[@gauthierperrod4958]

Pogacar zone 2 is up to 330-350 watts so most probably true for Roglic. But still it requires them to eat 1000kcal/h, so not sustainable when riding alone

[@Ifoldforweed]

@@gauthierperrod4958 did you do the math on it? would be 5 watts / kg in Zone 2. Pro ' s have ridiculous output, but I dont think its that high. Could be wrong

[@dominicbritt]

Best to ask before jumping on someone’s wheel - especially if they’re a pro who is training….

[@secretagent86]

He wanted to but could not manage

[@Alexander-lm9uz]

It´s part of cycling so whats the deal?

[@zaralundcy8884]

Roglic jumped infront of Thecyclingdanes camera 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣and it is on a public road!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@christophermoore7766]

Agreed. If you're riding along and someone catches you from behind, and then you need to jump and make an effort to bridge the gap, you're simply satisfying your own interests if you don't ask and potentially making yourself a pain in the azz. Grabbing any wheel that goes by you is not part of cycling, unless you're a wanker and want it to be part of cycling. The guy's training, not racing. Ask.

[@ryanhallman3828]

This. So cringe when people jump on random people's wheels that are riding by...

[@stuartdryer1352]

Very cool. You are a strong rider, for sure. That's not an "easy" session for the vast majority of us. Also, it's one of my favorite places on earth, I remember having an incredible lunch in Eze a couple of years ago...

[@thecyclingdaneACTION]

Thank you! He made it tough. Now you make me regret not stopping in Eze

[@zaralundcy8884]

Congratulation with your new channel ! What a treat the first video you following The King of Nice . Scott your are just everywhere🤣🤣🤣🤣 I am really excited to see what is next.

[@arthurreyes2632]

Cool video. Good job hanging on his wheel.

[@treyquattro]

very cool keeping up with Primoz. Those close calls were a little too close though - it's obvious what the local drivers are going to do if there's a tight(er) squeeze!

[@raymondherrick1942]

SWEET!!!!!- riding with the "king" of Nice- Amazing-

[@Miguel-ge7ck]

Great primoz!!

[@groovvvirgo]

Yeah man that’s rad, Dane 🤘🏼

[@markdwelchforcongress4456]

CD - are you kidding me - Primoz Fuckin Roglic Outrageous !! Nice job.

[@MrTbayles2]

cool video

Congrats on this new channel! Keep it up! Different channel for every different niche or intent, wish you all well

Awesome video WOW, every non pro cyclists dream right here :,-)

Time trial Olympic gold ecetera

[@JV-du9yw]

great video! Change to Kph - nobody really use mph in competitive cycling perhaps only in the states

[@departurexx1520]

You need to put the gradient reading in. Cheers!

[@thecyclingdaneACTION]

Next one for sure :)

[@OUTDOORS55]

If PR ftp is 400@64ish kg, that puts him at 6.25w/kg (it could be higher but not too much higher). 70-75% of 400 is 280-300 watts. Thats the upper end of z2.

[@infertagul]

That sounds about right. My FTP is 410W @ 85kg and my zone 2 upper limit is usually 280W - 300W for the first 2 hours, then ~270W - 280W afterwards.

[@MellowJFan]

From my experience with different athletes it does not always work like that. In therms of lactate and "maxfat" his true upper end of sone 2 could be 320-330 ish.

[@liamhotspur9182]

All serious business nowadays... Sagan, Voigt, Vinokourov would have a funny word for you!

[@thecyclingdaneACTION]

So true

[@antiguababuda6231]

Wow I envy you!!!!

[@REXMARX003]

103 sub, whoo hoo

[@thecyclingdaneACTION]

Thank you man :)

[@juanandres3248]

Such a pity 😢

[@briancrowley5374]

Lucky!

[@zaralundcy8884]

Well observed but FYI Scott did say it in the start of the video so your information is really pointless !😊

All those vehicles gave a safe distance, definitely not anything to think about

[@tollph3314]

this is normal thing for me when i ride i do not even care no more always riding with mirror and anticipating that some moron gonna hit me if iam not carefull it is what it is

[@jeanhernandezrodriguez4838]

Nice ride and vid! you kept his wheel while ascending but couldn't stay during the descending part? you should have tried to have a coffee with him, thank him for the ride up and ask him what training he was doing that day, maybe a nice stroll? 🤣or at least, ask to take a pic with him. that would have been nice.

[@thecyclingdaneACTION]

Good point! Haha and yeah not a fast descender hahaha

[@pedrolahoz]

Who are you kidding, you were on an electric bike

[@thecyclingdaneACTION]

You flatter me ahahahaha no ebike

[@zaralundcy8884]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 what a compliment to Scott!!!!

[@yeyeTF2]

what's ur weight?

[@thecyclingdaneACTION]

65kg on a good day and 72 kg on a bad day hahaha

[@ciclismoduromtb496]

Come undone

[@urdrenn]

man so much traffic, there are so much more beautiful places where you can train more in peace

[@elmaestroco]

I swear my calves are about to explode when I’m passed 200 w. And you are just playing at 300 w? Are you a pro ?

[@dickieblench5001]

Zone 2

[@argent2345]

Roglic was trying to catch Vlasov. 😃

[@thecyclingdaneACTION]

Hahahaha

[@SvenKrevchenko]

For a Dane you sound English to me

[@thecyclingdaneACTION]

haha I dont like the danish accent so lost it quickly

[@SvenKrevchenko]

@@thecyclingdaneACTION impressive!

[@secretagent86]

Hmmmi love him. But he was the dangerous driver going on the Wrong side of the road

[@patricklumplecker]

on this side even where road works

[@jorgehernando2821]

I'd overtake him and push @800W 😂😂

[@tollph3314]

mph what is that ?🤣

[@hectorcastillo3254]

People saying he cant beat Pogacar

[@Raisedkaine]

If they're both healthy, I don't know that he can. Dare I say, that Rogla has a better finishing punch, but Pogi is better at everything else.

[@tollph3314]

@@Raisedkaine Pogacar is 25 Roglic 32 ,he can not beat Pogacar if they are at their best i believe age is not just a number Pogacar has improved past years he was still kid 21 when won TDF

[@ciclismoduromtb496]

Primoz its armagaddon😅

[@Kanonka28]

Luka Donic is far better.

[@charlydegaul8737]
