The Time I FROZE My P3%I$ Racing FAT BIKES!

[@Anderson_999]

Damn I laughed my ass off. Easily the funniest video you've ever made, and you're a funny dude. Glad to hear you made a full recovery.

[@waltquandt6226]

Great episode - pretty much laughed through the whole thing. I live in Michigan and ride all winter so I have experienced the dreaded penile frost nip. Sounds like you had a pretty extreme case. Also I signed up for my first fat bike race - the Fat Bike Birkie race this year also in Wisconsin so I really enjoyed the pointers.

[@NathanLong]

The FBB is a good one. Check out my race footage from the Fat Bike Birkie on my channel. I've done it every year and ran the GoPro a few times. Last years race was ripping!

[@marshalloram1999]

That sucks. A vasectomy is worse, your body just rejects it, and it’s worst than blue # and there’s no relief. But your body adapts. Welcome to being an adult.

[@amineroadbikerider1504]

duuude can't imagine how painful that was . we all learned from that video

[@syrus3k]

The frankness is off the scale, this is why we watch you Tyler :D Ahahaaa, amazing. We've all had embarrassing incidents like this lol.

[@erikmiller7166]

lol I live in Wisconsin now. I’ve definitely shoved gloves down my shorts to protect my junk!

[@Twinthorn]

Classic Weiner frostbite. Happens to the best of us 😂

[@TheBassallyear100]

dude, you waited until December to give us this gem?? merry xmas to us all! epic!!! lol

[@keepay3065]

As someone who suffers from Raynaud's phenomenon, this happens to my hands every time I go outside and it's even the slightest bit chilly. Even with thick gloves on. I've never had it down there though, I can only imagine how painful that must be :|

[@syrus3k]

I also have Raynaud's, I finally went to the doc about it a few weeks ago and got some Nifedipine which helps a lot!!

[@keepay3065]

​@@syrus3k Good for you :) I'm a bit hesitant to take meds despite of the inconvenience Raynaud causes. Maybe if it gets worse I'll cave though. Thanks for the tip!

[@mikehuffman8208]

Same - was never a 'thing' until the past few years as wife and I hit our early 50s. Never had the dicknip - Windstopper and wool works well!

[@icarogoes1275]

Thanks for this video. I'm from Brazil and just moved to a place with real winter and snow. No one had told me that this is a thing, Will pay more attention to my body when running on snow.

[@kain12343]

Dude daily vlogs could not come at a better time. Officially indoor trainer time.

[@robbchastain3036]

I'm cool with Zany VC, you do you bro, but Conversational VC really told this story well, thanks, Tyler. I learned a lot about a fat bike race and the genre in general and I was riveted to your post-race troubles and you are right, that should be freely shared insider info from the get-go. And it was nice of the Wisconson delegation to make you feel at home in their woods.

[@aischwartzable]

Tyler - your storytelling remains unparalleled I think you keep getting better as time goes on. Uber talent, but that's not to say that a whole ******** of effort goes into it I'm sure

[@TheVCAdventures]

Appreciate that, I really do. I love the craft of storytelling and put a lot of effort into it, sometimes too much and it takes forever to get videos out.

[@jezziemalvada3840]

I don’t have a wiener so I don’t REALLY understand. But I get frost nip on my toes every time I ride in coldish temperatures no matter what I do. That pain and burning fire feeling as they warm up is off the chart. I can’t even imagine that happening in such a sensitive area. 😬

[@RonnieAttema]

Great video! I really feel your pain, I live 300km above the polar circle and this has happened to me multiple times sadly :( It really helps to put some chemical hand warmers on the lower end of your belly! Sometimes it might also help to put it in a sock, but it useally shrinks so much during the race that it doesn't stay in place and then the sock is just annoying

[@chrisw5275]

This is legitimately my favorite time of year. I look forward to these videos for 11 months of the year.

[@gregbrown3764]

Show of hands, who had 'weiner freeze' on their bingo card for today? SO MUCH VC CONTENT, love it!

[@samanderson7745]

Paramedic/ironman/ultramarathoner/ski mountaineer here who has suffered the same fate, as far as coming up to the ambulance with a frozen member, yeah, not a problem for us. We see plenty of nudity at work. Unfortunately, we're probably just going to tell you to keep it warm and protected from having anything rub on it for a few days. Maybe take some ibuprofen as needed.

[@cycologist7069]

I have to admit, I never heard of this being a thing but glad to be made aware as I am planning on taking up both winter fatbiking and XC skiing this winter.

[@TheVCAdventures]

It’s all about a wind breaker. I used a plastic shopping bag the next day and that worked great. They sell underwear that has a wind breaker in them.

[@leecorsack]

I’m kinda surprised that tip freeze never occurred to you but I guess warm weather riders… I’ve been using a plastic bag for years when the temps drop. Great vid tho! Winter fatbike racing is the bomb!!

[@BLINKGOLD311]

Ahhh, I guess that’s why you didn’t stick around! It was good to have you up here!

[@LucasH567]

YES!!!! VC December vlog time!!!!!! Starting off with a banger. So funny.

[@ianbarr4716]

Tyler, ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! Love this one. Cheers. :)

[@Ultegra10SPD]

"It was touch n go..." -Shaaa that is what Kristen said...

[@Ejstrainingcamp]

Dude the audio on this video is next level. You sound like you're in a sound booth! So sick!

[@Mclovinthedank]

Besides the frozen PP seems awesome. Its like a slow snowy mtb crit.

[@tonygSDWR]

Probably the funniest video title to thumb-nail photo combination 😄Glad you're good Dude.

[@carlstatham594]

Good to hear your bits are sorted. I have had grade 1 on my legs (soft Londoner goes to Canada in winter and didn't wear proper over trousers). That was insanely bad, like someone had set the front of my legs on fire. On the end of your bits whooah! I have done the zipper error, which is very bad ....... and you have the jeopardy of the insane pain and the knowledge you have to back down that zip!!!! A friend managed to do it for me by doing the old trick of right I'll count to three and then just rips it down on two. That was painful and it bled a lot, stitches were required and skin was lost. So you have my heartfelt sympathies.

[@hvah]

Been cold on my weiner on rides early season. It really sucks. Never this bad though! Looking forward to the daily vlogs. Its like a Christmas tradition for me now 🙂

[@matthewcacace6804]

Daily vlogs staring with a BANG! I love me some VC daily vlogs😊 Look forward to it every year

[@johannestebbert7221]

One of the best VC Vids this year for sure 😂

[@thevelogrudge]

Hey V good to have U back....missed U fella, I crossed my legs through that vlog, but sorry to say I chuckled to myself, looking forward to the dailys, happy trails......👉🥶

[@skrinix]

back in college cross country in the PNW, our coach told us to wear log socks. we had to run a wool sock over the goods in our gear. i thought it was a joke but after seeing this… thank god for log socks

[@redwoodJB]

Sorry to laugh at your pain but that ish was hilarious. I lived in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and would experience this after a long time of xc skiing. Your pain is real.

[@justinl487]

God damn i laughed so hard at the intro section about nobody sharing this hazard with you. Great story telling and editing as

[@chrismusgrove5259]

I know it couldn't have been nice at time but I literally cried with laughter through that episode 😂 brilliant episode 👏

[@ruiloureiro3167]

Only you could tell a super funny and thrilling 20 minutes story about your weenie getting frozen 😂😂😂 tkx man, you rule! 🤙🏻

[@doclittle2449]

Great video! I don’t have a wiener, but I felt your pain- and was entertained by both the fat bike story and your, uh, challenge.

[@nikhan14]

your videography and music is always interesting to watch.

[@AdamM-r2k]

The dreaded frozen middle knee (aka weenie)! Been there, experienced that and I agree that it’s painful!! Thankfully it was just my wife laughing at me when I was doubled over on the floor asking for her to take me to the hospital. A neck tube tucked down the tights can save the day, I never leave home without one in the winter months!

[@James_Fisher]

Absolutely brilliant! Another awesome video 👌🏻

[@facelesssman]

😂😂😂😂😂 The dude at the 17 minute mark laughing while you’re in pain…with “Hed” on his kit….lol

[@TheMurmuringGolem]

Great story. Thank for sharing!

[@lukealsford7079]

Some of your best VC

[@jbratt]

I have never been so appreciative to live in South Texas in my whole life.

[@mellnhead]

That’s it. I’m signing up for Zwift. Not going back outside until August.

[@andrewschirmer3849]

I was wincing watching this dudeman but another great video. Good riding too, live and learn 👊🏼

[@travisreed5965]

The Wife Kicks A$$ - Saw A Quick Clip There Of A Fan Wearing Our Fat Bike Worlds From Crested Butte Beanie - Super Cool Cheers

[@kevwells]

I have been waiting for this story, and I could almost feel your pain watching it. Poor little turtle haha

[@fwschnaar3179]

Sorry Tyler… Was laughing so hard… It’s that Guy thing I guess🤔… Kinda like watching your buddy taking a hard hit to the Nu###, and we all Gringe, but start laughing afterwards as we’re watching our Friend laying on the ground in Crazy Pain… Glad you’re Ok 👍🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️🚴‍♂️

[@trent7919]

Sorry that happened,,,,but thanks for starting my day with a great laugh!

[@EmmanuelNataf]

Happened to me and this is exactly why I get Assos bibs - windbreaker for your thing.

[@rubikzcuberuss7404]

Another great episode 👏 well done on top ten you should try the fatbike on dirt and gravel these bikes are a joy to ride off the snow,plus no frostbite 😂 the speed downhill on these bikes is like nothing else, i think it would shock you😊my fatbike weighs a mere 10kg so is very agile considering size of tyres. Love ya content would be great to watch ya do a utra race like the atlas mountains

[@JasonKnightxenofish]

Thanks!

[@TheVCAdventures]

🥶❄️🍆😭 Thanks Jason! I appreciate the love ❤️

[@johnzanetti3990]

I know the pain I had it after a x country ski race when I was in the military out in Norway. Dangled it in a mug of warm water for 5 minutes 😂 rewarming pains are excruciating

[@thewisconsingravelcyclist]

This hits home... So very hard.

[@franborrero]

Bro I was just suffering listening to you. 😅 good to know.

[@fraserherman8754]

Never laughed so hard in my life 😂😂 the line " it's not like I'm pumping blood down there during a race" had me on the floor!

[@echtogammut]

I had a far more minor incidence of this, when descending a snowy mountain. Thankfully, I stopped and stuffed an overglove down there and didn't let it go full frostbite. But, yes the warm up was extremely painful.

[@mikesymons]

Pretty funny getting an ad for BioFreeze during this. 😂

[@qwertyazerty2137]

I relate so much. Once I froze my hands on a bike so much and I did the worst thing you could do - put them in hot water... The pain was so excruciating that I got nauseous and started hyperventilating. So, I can only imagine what an agony it must have been if it was the most sensitive part of the body right after the ballsack and eyeballs...

[@tobogranyte]

Best. Video. Ever. Now that’s content!

[@ryancraig999]

Bro you gotta go to Marquette, MI and ride the groomed fat bike trails, so epic. They're REAL fat bike trails. And a fun race there called Polar Roll, definitely check that out!

[@youling1997]

Come ride some snowy xc in Green Bay! Or ride across the frozen lake. Even more fun

[@mikeontour_official]

Amazing story, haha, riding all winter all my life, never had my wiener freezing - 😆 but also was never going on so less cloths for such an event. Hardcore, but compared to other sports I guess bicycling has much more cold wind than anything else on snow I guess. And yeah, windbreaker pants are the best you can do in winter :)

[@JoshuaKonrath]

thanks man for the awesome videos, greetings from germany , ride on

[@kooyar1069]

Great story. I laughed a lot. Thank you! Here in Austria, a "Wiener" is someone who lives in Vienna. :-) BTW: The sound of your voice sounds a bit weird and unnatural in this setup. Too much low frequencies. (I listen on mastering grade fullrange speakers.)

[@JohnMikeBikes]

10/10 no notes 👏👏

[@TheVCAdventures]

You’re too kind John! Really appreciate you! I will use this to buy a willie warmer 🥶

[@JohnMikeBikes]

@@TheVCAdventures 💀💀

[@markjthomson]

Oh too nasty... thanks for taking one for the team... I so do not like cold!

[@HuntersCyclingAdventures]

Hopefully there won’t be any snow on the eastern divide trail when my buddies and I go bikepacking on it when we start on New Year’s day

[@michiganstate149]

My favorite races here in Michigan are fatbike races. Beats summer XC stuff. It's ridiculous, lots of harmless crashes and most are short CX style courses with laps and laps which is a whole different element of most XC races. Also, never had this issue, I'm 220# and have my fat to keep me warm😂

[@johannesk.314]

Well normally I am freaking out about my sweating extremities. But now I know that the other side is also not the best option. Atleast I am warm all day :)

[@alexharris222]

Loved this, your pain definitely made for a great story

[@DeanJohnson67]

that was an awesome video! Did this race in 2014!

[@johnflynn7084]

Living in northern Wisconsin, I’ve had that happen to my toes and fingers, but never Mr. Willie😢. Coming back this year?:-)

[@h20s8804]

You know they got tights with a Schwantz guard to block the icy breeze. I grew up in WI.

[@c5tv674]

Nordic ski racer here. Yup. I got you. Had that happen twice to me. I remember thinking I did permanent damage the 2nd time

[@TheVCAdventures]

How long did yours last? Mine made small improvements everyday so I wasn’t too worried but it lasted about a month to come back to full service.

[@c5tv674]

⁠mine didn’t really last that long honestly maybe a day. I was like you sitting in the lodge just with my hands in my pants crying after the race. I remember getting home and making sure we were still “standing up” ya know. It was not fun

[@williampraetorius1817]

Had this happen two seasons ago, crazy painful. I’m hyper conscious of it now.

[@ЛёхаБукреев]

You deserved my like, dude =)))

[@bluegreymtb3350]

Best video , come back to Wisconsin! You can podium!

[@drakeweissman6499]

thanks VC for a great story

[@NathanLong]

Glad to hear your equipment is back to normal. 😂 I had a blast racing with you that day. It was certainly cold for the race. Hope you can make it back to Wisconsin this winter for some more racing!

[@the_derpler]

If I was having wiener problems I'd instantly pull over and stop racing. I feel for you VC, its no fun :( It must have been terrible to think you might lose your dong and people are just laughing at you.

[@LOVEisTHEultimateLAW]

Stopping in the woods to ''warm up you weiner'' sound kinda fucked up tho 🤣🤣🤣

[@fpeter01]

You don't need cold weather. An uncomfortable saddle can do the same job.

[@charliegalliher]

I didn't have a car until I was 30 in Western Ma. and rode all year long - -30 degrees sometimes. I made that mistake once.... and you didn't ask me because it;s always the first thing I say.

[@chrisobyrne5675]

Uncomfortable watching even from a warm living room! Glad everything has retuned to normal!

[@mickelkobeck7376]

LOL, I wrap my "junk" up in a sock or two during cold winter rides.....it helps...sorta. LOL

[@kenmunozatmmrrailroad6853]

So entertaining I watched twice back to back😅

[@vonbrockone]

Rode a winter crit years ago & suffered a similar situation. My daughter was with me & had to undress me !

[@ClarkS963]

Poor you man. Sorry. All those people that were just laughing (not maliciously)..sorry. I would have definitely taken you straight to the medics.

[@BCD110]

So damn funny! LOL. Sorry about the pain though.

[@Circletakesthejake]

As a guy who had to have surgery down there I feel you...

[@JayP122]

Yessssss VC! ❤

[@tomrichards6207]

Mountain biked year round back in Minnesota. Long before fat bikes existed. I competed in a winter race series. First race it was 25 below zero, without the windchill factor. Placed second, despite leading the race for the entire race until the last 50 feet. DOH!! Never saw him coming. Second race was 45 below zero without the windchill. My derailleur froze up and exploded into a dozen pieces. Assuming the grease or chain lube froze solid. The coldest I've ever ridden in was 85 below zero with windchill. Never got the wiener version of Mr. Deeds blackfoot.😂

[@dadlife8289]

Vlogs are back. Lets go!

[@trwilliams22]

What a way to win a Darwin Award. Sorry for your pain and thanks for the laughs!

[@ShawnMcAfee]

This is so funny. Great story 😂😂

[@MrJstallard]

Ummm hard pass on the pecker ice!! We don’t get that here in Texas lol next time wrap it in foil lol like toes 😅😅😅😅

[@familybikeguy]

Great video, like everyone likes to claim, "been there" but certainly not more than a 10-30mn recovery needed! OUCH DUDE THAT WAS AN EXTREME CASE!!! Whos got a specific wind brief/similar product (craft? cycle specific?) to share with all this mid-westerner common-sense knowledge going on in the comments? Post up!

[@rrweinzierl]

You should come out and ride the Fat Bike Berkie. It's way harder and faster.

[@TheVCAdventures]

I really wanted to, it was the week after this but I had to get home. Chris, who put me up in his home, got 3rd at it.

[@davidmcdowell2788]

Man that looks so fun

[@JohnDoe-sw9zq]

Saran wrap or newspaper in the front of your shorts will eliminate the wind freezing your pee pee.
