I got pushed up to A cat a few days ago, and this is my first race in A cat. Not the biggest field ever, but still good fun.

WOW!!! Congrats on A Cat 🎉 Some excellent Zwift craft on show. Taking a win in your first A Cat is awesome. Chapeau 👏💪💪

Cheers Darren. 👊 It's all downhill from here!

That was awesome Lee. Your channel was the first Zwifting channel I watched and got hooked on. Seeing you promoted to A and then win this race was fantastic mate. 4.2 Watts aswell... 💪 Lazarushian is going to be my next video title. It's been a long time since Ive been that invested in a sprint finish. I hope you stick at A for a long long time. 🙏👍🙌

Ah, thanks, Ryan. That's really cool of you, mate. 👊 I was pretty lucky here. This will be a complete one off, "Goldilocks zone" race. I'll get destroyed in all other events. But hopefully it'll force me to make some improvements. And I'll just try to cling to the underside of A cat for as long as I can.

What just happened?! Are you 1 for 1 in CAT A? Damn! 100%. What a stud. That was an awesome finish.

@lee-cycling Ай бұрын

Hey dude. Yeah, the streak is real! Streak of one.

@MrPedel Ай бұрын

YES! Obliterated them! What a spiky race, and what a triumph for you and all mankind. And I saw the word Lazarushian for the first time ever, so that was a win for me as well 😅

@lee-cycling Ай бұрын

Thanks Thomas lol I think, as far as A races go, that was probably the kindest intro I could get. Good fun, still. And I had to look Lazarushian up. I thought it would be "Lazarusian", but apparently that's not a thing. Lazarushian it is, then!

That was awesome Lee! Congrats on the win and smashing all those other A's, great sprinting too and 4.2wkg for over 25mins!!! KABOOM 👊💪💪💪

@lee-cycling Ай бұрын

Thank you Mark 👊 I was surprised at the 4.2. I thought I'd been really drafty/efficient in it. 😂 Maybe that was as drafty I could be behind some dude holding 5.7 for basically all of it.

@dczwifter Ай бұрын

Lovely finish, Lee. 👏.. the timing looked perfect.. Super steady high wattage too. 💪💪👏

Thanks mate. Glad to get my annual win out the way!

@JDirom Ай бұрын

Beauty! Congratulations on the upgrade, and then first race a win! Way to go, impressive. Truly impressive!

Thanks JD. A very rare win for ol' man Cassidy.

@ZwiftyZwifter Ай бұрын

KABOOOOOM!!! Great stuff, Lee! I particularly liked the first bridge, super timing. But awesome throughout. I find those super high cadence avatars like Kim’s so off putting!

@lee-cycling Ай бұрын

Thanks Rob. 👊 Ah, is that a bug/thing in Zwift? I didn't know about that. I thought he was a bit sus throughout the whole race. Power barely changed. I assumed the cadence was just another pointer to that.

@ZwiftyZwifter Ай бұрын

@@lee-cycling those with that type of cadence tend to go quite fast, so I feel similarly. But you beat him regardless!

@DixonZwifting Ай бұрын

Well done on getting the upgrade and then confirming you belong at the level with the win!

@lee-cycling Ай бұрын

Thanks Paul! Don't know about the hat last bit, though! I'll get hammered from now on.

@darrenvandit Ай бұрын

Tactical masterclass of a race.. what an amazing display my friend! Congratultions on the mega win, on a top sprint despite you didn't have the aero you managed to hit the front & get the W! Keep it up champion :)

@lee-cycling Ай бұрын

Thanks Darren. Far too kind, I think. But I appreciate it 👊

@Alan-Turnbull Ай бұрын

That’s brilliant, first race as an A and a win, that pretty special well done 👍

@lee-cycling Ай бұрын

Cheers Alan. Made possible by the Zwift Play shims! Thanks again for those 👍

@Alan-Turnbull Ай бұрын

@@lee-cycling ha if that was true I’d have tried them myself 🤔 more a result of your hard work and determination 👍

@RideWithGerben Ай бұрын

Oh yeah! This is it. Great timing there! Also that was a bloody sus field you where in. Could be electric bike for at least two of them.

@lee-cycling Ай бұрын

Thanks Gerben. Yeah, two guys held pretty suspiciously even and high power.

@psymanj73 Ай бұрын

Just brilliant, Lee! 🎉 Great racing, big numbers and the win! 🏆 It’s like you were born to ride cat A! 💪 🚲

@lee-cycling Ай бұрын

😂 Thanks Simon. I don't know about that. Actually, I do; I'll be spat out the back of basically every other race. But I will have this to cling on to forever now!

@R.T_Go_Your_Own_Way Ай бұрын

Congrats on the upgrade and awesome effort in your first A cat race. Great power you are showing, I really do like this new contender with cow spots, you look to be right at home.

@lee-cycling Ай бұрын

Thanks RT mate. I don't know about the at home bit. I felt like an imposter in B. Absolutely stupid to be in A with people like you. The cow spots are awesome, though!

@crow4868 Ай бұрын

wow cat A. just noticed. Congratulations. Impressive numbers. See, told you if you weren't careful, poof cat A. You won so empty warning. Careful now though next stop A+.

@lee-cycling Ай бұрын

Hey Roger. Hope you're well. Thank you. I think A+ are pretty safe from me, though.

Chapeau!! Really smart racing, great sprint, even got a little fist pump at the end. Congratulations, Lee! 👊🏻🎉

@everydayzwifter Ай бұрын

Thats awesome. 4.2w/kg. I remember when you were worried about going up to B.

Thanks EZ. Yeah, I think it was pretty much one year ago. And I still feel like that, really.

Yeah, they'll allow anyone in these days. Thanks, Georg.

@stevej_on_your_MTB Ай бұрын

Amazing, Lee. Strong power all through, and having to deal with those two non ZP riders. I looked at Lee's plot in ZC and looks very odd. Correlation of cadence to power is almost 1:1 so probably a fixed gear bike. Anyway I digress, amazing!

@lee-cycling Ай бұрын

Thanks Steve. I thought both Lee and Kim were a bit sus throughout . Pretty flat/constant power. But as they weren't on ZP, I thought I'd just do my own thing, and just try to benefit from Lee.
