We BROKE the ULTRA DISTANCE Course Record - A 48 hour Bike Race (Daily Vlog #9)

[@SugarShane13]

Fuck yeah bro ❤❤❤ Love you dude. What a memory. What an amazing ride. What an amazing video. Thank you for doing this with me. You talked about life changing moments yesterday, and this was one for me.

[@s-ultracycling]

Heck yea Shane. You boys crushed it

[@s-ultracycling]

I was there . Did 12h I stead of 24 due to lingering back issues. Finished with 235.2 miles in the 12h and won my age group. 7th Overall I believe

[@SugarShane13]

@@SweetLike I was recovering from a back/hip injury and couldn’t train up in time. Not sure why RAAM left me on the roster, I had canceled back in August.

[@s-ultracycling]

Ughh, they kept shuffling it like a deck of cards. Made no sense. Some start waves were twice larger than others . People were not removed on time or updated to the roster. Back issues suck, wishes for quick recovery. I just bought inverse table ... Did some testing in LA, few of my vertebrates are looking like s##t 😁

[@SugarShane13]

@@SweetLike thank you! I think I will be back 2023. I really want to break that 500 mile mark. Right now I’m focused on running, but the one race I do this year on the bike will be 24 hour worlds. 2020 was extremely cold too!

Bro, this is without a doubt my fav youtube series of all time (and I have watched A LOT of yt)! The story telling, editing and just the overall vibe is amazing! This is the 3th year I watch you're daily december and this one is by far the best one yet, it's crazy to see your improvement over the years! keep up the good work, I wish that we meet one day :)

Dude you can tell you’re son thought you were a freaking super hero. That’s awesome. I can only hope my daughter can look at me like that one day. Cheers bud!

[@matthewavignonpetersen5893]

I’ve been waiting for this episode for a very long time. I had the opportunity to work RAAM / RAW in 2013 as an employee of the then-title sponsor and it was a transformative experience that exploded my passion for cycling even further. To see the most legendary cycling KZbinr take it on is absolutely incredible. Chapeau on an incredible effort, Tyler.

[@FabOnABike]

Vegan cyclist here as well, went running during lunch break, now sitting on the couch, eating "Müesli" (cereals) and watching "The Tyler show" on KZbin. I'm so absolutely fine and +20 min spent watching somebody I admire and look up to. Always a pleasure to see your videos

[@strongwill3637]

The support of your family is beautiful! PRICELESS

[@runwithme9643]

This is phenomenal. Having done a couple 24 hr races, I'm in awe of the 48hr and beyond crew including VC. I feel like it's one of the greatest things you can do to re-evaluate your limits and recommend it to most everyone.

[@burtmabel545]

Tyler, your wife is always working. I think she deserves a raise. No, she is priceless you couldn’t pay her enough.

[@TheVCAdventures]

I should do a video on this, it’s something I’ve talked about before, but the amount of work I’ve put into myself to add value to the marriage is insane. I’m 1,000x better of a partner now than I was when we got together. So she sees me giving that kind of effort to be better for her, and then she returns that. We lean on each other to be better, and that’s why we have been together since 18.

Great video! That climb up Yarnell is a beautiful view. :) Brought back good memories as I was crewing for a RAAM Solo rider that year. SO DAMN HOT all the way into CO. The difficultly for you and your crew of managing rider fatigue, finding safe exchange points, etc cannot be over emphasized.

You need to ship to Europe 🇵🇹 because i want a T-shirt with a bear riding a bike😂. Best of luck for you and your family!!!

[@raanyroad9110]

I laughed so hard at “call the cops”.

[@tankbirdfinder6219]

Tyler, was thinking about VLOG#7 or 8, you mentioned what's after "impossible routes"? Clearly everyone always has ideas, but maybe consider taking on a zero to hero series with kids or young adults. By that, maybe take on the task of coaching a youth team and teaching them about the mental part of biking. To your point the body is capable if the mind can get there. The right group of kids could go from not knowing much but willing to try, to unlocking their potential and learning how to be mentally tough. Anyway, you can think about it. It might be something fun for you being the awesome Dad you are. Canyon may have interest in supporting in a way as well, which would be important. I think the content could be interesting to watch progression. Best of luck, I'm sure whatever you decide will be awesome. I think your relatability should not be lost, it's part of what makes your content awesome!!

[@TheVCAdventures]

That would be awesome but I’d need that to be my sole focus if I did it. Couldn’t half ass that shit. So not sure if 2023 is right for that, but maybe 25,26… I could see dedicating a whole year to that.

[@jhuenefeld]

Baddass Brother 😎✌️

[@beagleracing]

We do a 12-hr. mountain bike race each year in a team of 4 riders. The solo 12-hr riders tell me that they'll never do relays because they're so much more difficult to do 4 1-hr. laps at full gas vs. doing a steady state 12-hr. ride. The team relay races are so much more fun and just as difficult as the solo!

[@gosbusta]

Sick man. Love watching you smash this also, love the family stuff. Great to see. Side note, what app are you using to track your macros?
