The Race Across America is arguably the ultimate endurance race, spanning over 3000 miles of brutal terrain in just 6 days. Just finishing this race is a mighty undertaking in itself, but Mark Beaumont, along with his cycling partner Jonathan Shubert, not only want to win it, but break the record for the fastest time. In this video, we follow Mark and Jon, finding out what it really takes to prepare for such a mammoth undertaking.

Mark's laser-focused obsession with performing optimally as a team is both scary and inspiring. "We _need_ us to be a good team." And in the Around the World in 80 Days film, the slightest doubt of finishing from his teammates was enough to mess with his mental and tell off his managers. Even Laura Penhaul was not spared Mark's ire. Truly an exceptional athlete. Mark is my hero. He will demand nothing less than the best. Good luck out there!

The solo record holder did it in 7d ~16h, which is crazy for a solo rider. He(Christoph Strasser, Austria) seems to take the first place quite often. Wiki: "... he became the first person to ride more than 1,000 kilometres (620 mi) in 24 hours... achieved 1,026.215 kilometres (637.660 mi) with an average speed of 42.75 kilometres per hour ... he also broke 11 other world records, for Kilometer and Mile distances of 100, 200, 300, 500 and for six, 12, and 24 hours." - that was with 9 hours of rain

Stievenart is a “wattage bazooka” recipient for his record ride at the Le Mans 24 Hour Velo race in 2017 where he rode 590 miles in those 24 hours. Perez also rode Le Mans, completing 545 miles.

The team I was in won the race in 2016 but the organisers played funny buggers which ended up in a lawsuit and finally the proper result being reinstated - ie we (Team DMS) were eventually reinstated as the winners. Short story - another team (team Working Nation) had cheated by claiming an impediment which they didn’t experience and almost gotten away with it (until a detailed data analysis showed they cheated). Absolute disgrace really. It all left a very bitter taste in the mouth and really called into question the professionalism and integrity of the organisers. Having said that, leaving the owner of the race aside, it is a terrific bike race and well worth doing once in your life. Good luck guys. And please ride safe. It is very scary at times.

@@leskennedy they claimed they were held up by a fallen tree in Indiana by 30 mins (there were tornadoes going through that area and it was f’ing scary riding with trees and debris all over the road. I was riding that leg and it was insanity). Anyway, they had 30 mins credited to their time. But we were a little surprised as we rode through that same area at almost exactly the same time and it was clear from the tracker data that they were probably held up for c5 mins. I still have the calls. (Well either that or in that segment they were riding at 50mph for the time they were supposedly moving). In the end they won the 4 man and we won the 8 man and the overall but only after a law suit brought after we were disqualified for calling out their cheating. The irony!. Getting DQ’d for pointing out to the organisers that TWN lied about their hold up. The organisers wanted TWN to win the overall as they were making a moving about the race and were keen for them to win(and definitely not keen for their inaccuracy to be brought to light). It was a very weird situation and really highlighted how sport can be corrupted - even at this amateur level.

Agree, I’d look at 4, 4, 4, through the night then 3, 3, 3, 3 through the day. This will rotate the riding sequence through each day and allow some reasonable sleep. You have to ride aerobically over this period of time and recovery will be more important than riding at threshold. You want to minimise power loss over successive days.

Great video! Good luck to you all. From what I understand, you (and everyone else) will need it. It's beyond insanity. Question: Hour on, hour off? Why on earth would they do that? The intervals seem WAY too short to provide the benefits of rest, recovery, nutrition, proper warm up and so much else. How will you ever get any worthwhile sleep? You have a partner out riding, so get some rest! Plus, aren't you setting yourself up to fail giving yourselves so many transitions? Surely they're the slowest part of the race, so you think you'd want to minimize their frequency. Plus, this is also probably the most dangerous part of the effort: exiting from and merging into traffic, pulling the vehicle over, milling about with traffic speeding by. Can't possibly imagine they will stick with this approach come RAAM.

@@LVQ-so5th The top teams use variable schedules to accommodate sleep, terrain, conditions, time of day, etc. Sticking to a hard 1x1 is bad idea. The big thing is sleep. Doing teams your heart rate fluctuates up and down all week due to rest periods; on a 1x1, by the time your heart rate is back to resting, it's time to get dressed and ready for your turn. Solo riders on the other hand, their heart rate basically stays elevated the entire week; when they finally sleep, they crash from a psychological shutdown, there's no 'winding down' for a nap.

I think it’s awesome that some people are able to pedal a bicycle across the USA. Wish I was able to. A lot of people wouldn’t drive that far.

Excuse me.... but why has the bromance been killed off? I see no other duo than Mark and Hank for this epic adventure....

What happened to the 2 man/Team GCN at the RAAM 2022? On the RAAM website, it lists them as a DNF?

No but good luck. I've watched this race many times and there are so many boxes that need to align for a win and I think the first time is even harder. However if anyone can do it its these two, Mark simply doesn't even recognise the words give up.

This is probably a bit late. The In Ear Comms pain is just the ear getting used to having something in it. If the riders were to wear the comms as much as possible, even off the bike, then their ears would get used to them quicker. I had a similar problem when I started wearing a Bluetooth headset for driving as a courier. After a week or so the pain went away as my ears got used to the headset.

Or just get one that doesn't hurt. Really a headset should be comfortable and effortless to wear, not everything about cycling needs to be uncomfortable.

I know you have a great cpm on the videos, I know you have sponsors up the wazu, amd I know you have a great subscription service and I know you are a well oiled machine but how on earth do you afford to do all these amazing features???? This challenge alone must have cost tens of thousands. (Thanks by the way)

GCN is part of the Play Sports network, which is owned by Warner Bros. Discovery so I would guess there is more than just RU-vid revenue funding the channel
