Paddy has had an up and down 2022 so far, crashing and breaking his collarbone in his first race of the year. But then he bounced back to win the overall classification of the Tour of Turkey, as well as stage 3 of the Tour de Romandie. We have a chat about what he's experienced so far this year, and what he's looking forward to next...

Always great! You have the best Pro Cycling behind the scenes relaxed interviews...Real World! Enjoyed it as always!

[@tristantakevideo]

Thanks so much Mike 🙏🏼 Really appreciate it!

[@antoniocasablancasvilanova2207]

I enjoy a lot these behind the scenes. They are unique opportunity to get to know awesome talents such as Paddy. Your style of filming it makes it feel like as if we are going for a ride together...me in the sofa, you probably pushing insane watts for mortals..keep it up "sis plau!!!"🙏👍

[@tithoroy72]

The quality of the video is insane. It amazes me that you’re filming only with an iPhone and not caring a 2 kg camera on your back!

[@antspage]

love to hear that kiwi accent really proud of these guys over in Europe there is a large kiwi group competing this season and doing well against tough competition all the best guys - great interview TTV!

[@tristantakevideo]

Thanks Antony! Yeah the Kiwis definitely punch above their weight over here. Such a good group of guys and such strong riders. The stage of Romandie that Paddy won had 3 Kiwis in the top 10. Possibly a first ever in a WT race which is cool.

[@wendysuperfan1014]

Hi Paddy. (from WendySuperfan). Thanks Tristan and Paddy.

[@user-ow1jh8yb5j]

Best cycling videos on KZbin. That climb also looks pretty stunning

[@tristantakevideo]

🤝🏼 Thanks Derek

[@swites]

Cool interview. 1300W's for 20secs?! I'd be happy if I could hit 1200 for 1! lol Always remember seeing this ramp test Paddy did with his old NRS team and him completing 550W's! Was thinking man get this guy in the WT after that!

[@bennyw5041]

Another awesome Vid from you mate. I always enjoy your introduction to Pro riders.

[@tristantakevideo]

Thanks Benny!

[@_________4292]

[@scugno]

Nice interview mate. I’ve met him and I agree super humble person.

[@kati2426]

Quite interesting how Paddy, after a good few seasons, finally starts to break through in the peloton.

[@neilplatt1111]

[@kumer13]

[@riencoert]

4:38 classic paddy, never not pedalling, sending it on a narrow wooden pathway

[@tristantakevideo]

Hahaha exactly. And halfwheeling the entire interview 🤣

[@oliverfieldhouse2938]

Great video Tristan! Love the views

[@tristantakevideo]

Thanks Oliver!

[@BobMcKerrell]

Nice vid as usual. Saw you on a Strava segment near Tarragona.. of course way faster than me : )

[@GrooveyMG]

Simply KZbin at its best - first rate!!! Thank you for such excellent content.

[@tristantakevideo]

[@breathestrongcycling3672]

has there ever been a bad NZ champion or national team kit?....of course not! Kiwis always look good on a bike 👍

[@tristantakevideo]

Agreed

[@bettjeman123]

Chur Paddy!

[@duncancycles]

I would love to know if he has removed the plate in his clavicle. Riding with a clavicle plate can get nasty if you fall again on that same shoulder.

[@tward349]

Tristan, can you make a video about the different challenges with head winds vs. tail winds? You guys mentioned it a little bit but it seems like certain things can be challenging in a tail wind, what is it about the tail wind that makes racing harder?

[@tristantakevideo]

Hey man, I’ve been thinking about talking about the benefits of training in tailwinds for this specific reason. Basically the faster you’re going, the harder it is (and more watts it requires) to increase your speed. When there’s a tailwind in a race everyone is already going so fast it requires way more work to be faster than the rest and everyone kind of reaches this “terminal velocity”..if that makes sense? Next time you’re out riding, go down a hill at top speed and then try increasing your speed even more..you’ll see what I mean. This is also why riders train behind a scooter (“motorpacing”)..to replicate the high speeds in racing and the high wattages required to keep up. Pushing big watts at high speeds requires very specific work that can’t be achieved in regular training.

[@UGAecon]

What’s the story with the logo on his shorts being upside down?

[@tristantakevideo]

I think those are the ‘Limited Release Misprint Edition’ shorts 😅

[@0views372]

Are you wearing the Oakley encoder sunnies on this video?

[@tristantakevideo]

Correct

[@troycollett8540]

He’s been riding so well but as an Aussie I want jay vine to get that maiden victory

[@tristantakevideo]

Jay will definitely be getting some results in time..he’s an absolute weapon as well. I’m expecting big things!

[@manutavano]

16:06 wait, did he win an iPhone? LMAO

[@tomrachellesfirstdance7843]

I noticed that too

[@emmabevin1242]

Can confirm it was a watch 😂

[@Juan_More_Mile]

8 weeks is a long ass time when they can just ride an indoor trainer...

[@duncancycles]

Has he removed his clavicle plate?
