[@russellbanner589]

Well done mate. Tough route and you are right - lots of strong punchers in our division. Well done Cruisers as well, pipping us choppers in the end!

[@inthedrops]

Thanks RB.. some big hitters, thats for sure.. but what happened with the numbers in The Choppers? 7 and a DQ, who missed that?

[@russellbanner589]

​@inthedrops very late 7th sign up, just missed. Didn't even know you could get 7 race passes / riders in the pen! Do now!😂

[@mikebrooks215]

Great race mate, tough course with all those climbs. Cruisers did well with Brodie absolutely smashing it again. I thought I was going to be toast on that last climb but I think everyone was in the same boat!

[@inthedrops]

Well done Capt.. fingers crossed we can hang onto him for one more round, otherwise what do we need to do go back to C2 😏?

[@mikebrooks215]

@@inthedrops as we always do we will look at the teams and see how they line up as per divisions. Your Captaincy will be very important as always mate

[@JDirom]

Solid ride. Especially the last climb. You were all in, and didn’t let go! Nicely done.

[@inthedrops]

Yeh thanks mate.. it was a tough one. I wanted to let go soo many times.. thanks for the shout out

[@JayB9127]

GratZ on completing 500 ! Strong effort!💪💪🙏🙏👍👍

[@inthedrops]

Thanks mate - had hoped for a better result, but stil happy with the effort..

[@RyanCondon]

Massive effort mate! Well done on it being your 500th race too.

[@inthedrops]

Cheers Ryan.. 500 races, is alot.. glad I'm still able to keep up with the pointy end..

[@SteakandChains]

Great job!!! Way to take back those last few spots on the last climb!

[@inthedrops]

Thats it Miguell - just have to keep punching eh? How did you go in your race?

[@SteakandChains]

@@inthedrops I don’t often say this about my own races, but I did much better than what I thought. Finished with JD and a couple other dirt riders and got a few PR’s in the process.

[@kevinrussellsmith7976]

Nice racing, seriously tough course

[@evilstef667]

congrats on your 500 , good fight , hope i m gonna survive that in a lil less than 90 min go time

[@inthedrops]

How did you go Stef? I bet you smashed it!

[@evilstef667]

@@inthedrops well it went as planned , kinda chill compared to your race , up the 1st Sgurr , than some attacks by the usual peeps , and i had a dropout , closed the 10 sec gap in one of the Nessie Loops , burned down the whole matchbox , so not much left for the finish , came 12th , thats ok

[@frannyyarina]

Well done Nathan...

[@25104719mac]

That hill at the end was a killer wasn’t it. I went way too early off the front at the bottom of the final climb.

[@inthedrops]

Tell me about it.. I just ran out of legs, but kept going, but died, but kept going.. I think I died about 4 times.. How did you go?

[@jshhulse1]

I’m a bit nervous for this course now lol

[@inthedrops]

Hahah - nothing to be nervous about except 35 mins of eye-popping pain and misery.. Good luck!

[@richardsmith1525]

Very much enjoy these videos. As far as I’m aware the only vocabulary you possess is ‘Fack!’ 😂

[@inthedrops]

Thanks Rich.. I try to say more, but its all I'm capable of - that and shaking my head.. cheers mate!

[@mattcromwell4955]

Are sticky watts socially acceptable nowadays or is there a difference?

[@kevinrussellsmith7976]

🤡

[@mikebrooks215]

what are you on about? There's no sticky watts from Nathan's ride data. You might want to read up and educate yourself on what Sticky watts is.

[@mattcromwell4955]

@mikebrooks215 If you educated yourself to read my genuine question.. I asked if there was a difference between what my interpretation of stop start pedalling in the video was and sticky watts. If you can't answer the question or provide anything beneficial to me I'm not that interested

[@bbbishop132]

I watched Ed Laverack get dropped on the epic kom decent because his power would drop to 0 straight away when he wanted to super tuck. Zwift just need to take out the code which tapers off power when a trainer power drops suddenly.

[@mikebrooks215]

@@mattcromwell4955 you must have written a lot of that in invisible ink… there is a massive difference between sticky watts and a ride and coast style which isn’t that different to outside. If you know what sticky watts is you would know the difference and what is cheating and what isn’t.
