Cry Baby Hill Breakdown 

About 10 years ago I went to Tulsa Tough on Cry Baby Hill Day. I had never been to a race so I didn't know what to expect. Because of where we were, we had to cross the main stretch. They had an opening for people to walk across AFTER the racers had passed. I wasn't aware of this since I had just arrived. So like an idiot, I stepped onto the road when a motorcycle sped by while yelling something. Then I look down the road and see all the racers speeding towards me. I ran across the road and dove over the barricade milliseconds before the racers got to where I was. People were swearing and yelling at me, a cop was going to force me to leave, and my girlfriend was willing to leave me right then. I had no idea how fast a lap happened and it blew my mind to see how fast racers ride. Man was I ignorant!

The amount of contact interacted is insane.

Curious about this dude with ankle socks and the Ironman tat lol

That was scarier than a NY cab ride😅

Nice! We love it when you explain and narrate the race, who is who, and a bonus when there is all the info from the power meter, etc.

Audio is fire

lol that hill in person is insane. the hill itself and the atmosphere is awesome

Big up Ribble! Such a great result

Saw in another video that the DCC guy that goes straight towards the barriers 5:53 had a front flat. Pretty crazy that he held it up

I have been looking forward to a POV video of this race! I watched it live on the Tulsa Tough youtube channel, and I have to say I think their production was excellent, both the video of the race itself, and the announcing. Very professional. Thanks for sharing your on bike video, Will, as it really helps to see it from the perspective of inside the race itself. Especially appreciated as a former long time racer myself.

I saw one of those river meth heads run up that hill faster than ANY P12 ever has.

Awesome video! Did you race in Clarendon at Armed Forces? I was hoping to see a breakdown of that race!

Good volume setting now buddy, nice to hear you! Now to work on your overlay - it may just be me but it seems slightly transparent? ;-) I love racing but don't think I would cope with the washing machine you race in here - that's nucking futs. I bet there's no rim brake riders huh? Work hard, be humble. I like the sound of that! Which team do you race with? Nicely ridden, any race you finish in one piece is a good one in my book. Great recap, thanks.

I can't imagine racing Crybaby Hill with no fences on the hill. Only time I raced there was Masters (doubled up A's and B's) in 2019, first year they had the fences AFAIK (and the last year a Cat 3 could do A's and B's).

Good work!

are they squirting water at you guys? or is that rain?

You would have loved it in the days before barriers.

Every single line coming off of Cry Baby onto the straight is bad, but some lines are definitely worse than others. Shout out to the Ribble guy in front of you doing the final corner and sprint from the hoods.

I personally didn’t know that hill hits 10%… 😬… kudos being there competing… 🫡🍻
