Guess that's why they call it Tulsa Tough. 

Wow, Deven's less than 24-hour turnaround, including the hunt for a derailleur hanger, shoes, and wheels - plus setup in time for the next day's Arts District _and_ full blown redemption to the podium is an awesome story in itself. That was, indeed, fire in the heart.

Every video of this event is a first person POV of a meat grinder.

Sorry for your crash Devin and congrats on the result. Watching, I'm struck by how cool it is to have the cameras, and that you and Jeff take the time to break down the anatomy of a crash. At the end of the day, this one looked like an instance of "crit things happen in big crits," but seeing it broken down from multiple angles might provide some learning, and it's fascinating in and of itself. When I was racing crits cameras were just starting to become ubiquitous. Usually when I crashed I never really had much idea what the heck had happened!

Elbows out man and you may get yelled at if you do it too much or too far out. But that rider/move coming on your left gets pushed out if your elbows are flared, look at 11 minutes where you have freeze frame with highlighted bubble. Also, you are the only rider that so can see on the tops, less stable/iffy grip than drops and with two laps to go in my drops, elbows ready as precaution. Awesome recovery next day so bravo indeed.

Devin is an awesome guy and we were stoked for him to bounce back on day 2. Tulsa was a party the whole weekend!

Damn, that looked like it could have been the perfect race. Glad he took it well, or at least sounds like he did.

Gosh that looks terrifying. I'd love to try a crit but i can't afford to crash

You can see the guy that crashed in the back of Devin has already crashed once in the race before. He has blood dripping down his leg as he hits the ground.

I was watching this race live when this happened… I’m glad Devin is/was ok… those type of crashes are always unnerving… congrats on the results… 🍻

That is what I like in American Cycling. Crazy speed cycling, just do what you like. Never heard or seen these kind of races in Europe. And I cycle allready a long time. Greetings from the Netherlands🇪🇺🇳🇱👍🚴‍♀️

Second best thing about this video (after Deven being on the box in race 2) is that the dude who swoops across the front of that race and throws a shoulder into into the eventual winner ends up going down in the melee that he helped to create. Karma exists...

Podium-ing (is that a word?) is a hellla way to bounce back. Good for Devin.

"Strength is not how many times you have fallen but how well you can rise again after being defeated" Awesome work..#TrueStory 🙌🙌

Glad you were able to come out of that crash to get a great result at the next one! Sometimes it's just a millisecond away from disaster and there's nothing you can do. From what I see in the cam view, you were just about to filter behind the guy to your right to take that turn perfectly, but the guy to your left wasn't backing down when he should have done the same and prepared for the turn. It wasn't an aggressive bump, but he crowded the space unnecessarily and most likely would have been shut down in that turn anyway.

Hi Norcal, just curious what happen to the Rider on Devin left, did he got a warning for that move ?

As I’ve learned from a shattered wrist 6 weeks ago due to a crash. Surgery and medical costs far exceed that of most broken pieces of gear. Glad you ended up concussion and broken free!

10:02 ZAMN bro is cheeked up fr fr

The rider on the left (to the right as we look from the front) is, I think, caught out by the riders in front moving from their right to left. You can see from Devin's footage that Devin moves from being on the right side of the white line, to the left side of the line, just before the crash. At 10:58 you can see that the angle of Devin's bike and that of the guy that bumps shoulders with him are converging and that the guy is trying to swerve away. From this I don't think the shoulder bump was intentional. He may have been guilty of loosing concentration for a second only to find those in from of him moving over to the left while he was still travelling a straight line. Thoughts? Well done, Devin, for coming back the next day and taking 3rd.

Cycling: when you’re not hurt until you’re hospitalized 😂

Man I want to crit so bad but I have 1 bike and just can't afford even a $500 fix. That and my lower spine is fused together and if I crash it could be real bad. It's a miracle I'm cycling at all. So I guess I'm a gran fondo guy for life lol. Crits just look so exciting and enthralling. Must be an incredible adrenaline rush. I'd probably celebrate winning a cat 5 like I'd won a grand tour

13:58 love that redemption.

Man, I want to race so bad but I just absolutely CANNOT afford it especially with a crash destroying your bike like that. I’m just priced out…

That Crit Racing is very much a US thing i would hardly disagree with you, In German and Netherlands you can find Crits all over the place and as seen in the Pro 1 a German Team comes up and plays a major role in each race

Man, losing a entire wheel, shoes and kit due to a crash like that sucks. Wish TTs were more common so that people can participate without that increased risk of crash while still remaining competitive. Checking the calendar for my local org and only two TTs are on it, I would pay the org fee and do some races with them if there was more TTs than that. Thank you for using the video/camera to properly assess the situation rather than using it to act as another hey crash in this crit video.

That rider as the end of the video watching by the fence with the specialized bike is Max Alvarez out of the DFW area. That kid is sneaky fast. He has great talent.

Nice work! I won that race last year and now race for Butcherbox p/b LOOK. Keep it up!

I never travel with my bike without a derailleur hanger

The main reason this crash is half wheeling.

Hell yeah, redemption at its finest 💪🏼

You made out pretty good. My crash last Oct I needed stitches and had multiple bruises, etc.

No way to lean out of the overlapped wheel on the right with the guy on the left pushing you that way. He’s lucky he was up to your shoulder as the same thing was going to happen to him otherwise.

MORE VIDEOS WITH DEVEN, BY DEMAND!! 🙌🏼

Such a bummer! Really glad you are ok for the most part. 👍 Quick question.. Were your hands - right hand on the center of the bars as the crash occurred? or your right hand on the center of the handlebar near the steam? It looks weird at 10:58 in the clip and in that portion of the video it looks as if your right hand was not on the brake hoods? Hard to see what was going on there.

'No broken bones' me - I wish I broke bones, just ruined all my shoulder tendons in a mtb crash grade 5 ac separation. Lol.

Excellent commentary!

Ouch! The sound of the bike scraping along the pavement is horrible! Been there done that. Heal fast!

Brutal, this is why I only race / group ride on Zwift. I ride by myself outside.

That was brutal. Great he’s okay 👍🏼

9:27 ugh my heart is racing

drops > hoods every time rider there is contact... what say you Jeff?

Alot of sodium in lmnt different than other brands I will have to try it out.

Always protect your front wheel

9:13 What the hell ?!? The dude screamed out loud !!! 😮😵😵😵😵😵😵😱

Great redemption! 🔨 down

@StachePower cameo at 4:06

Devin got cake

dude! super recovery.

Random question Jeff, does the rest of mikes bikes team take it as a conflict of interest when you coach riders of a different team? Absolutely love your channel, i was just curious

If that guy bumped into me and made me crash he'd be leaving in an ambulance.

ive seen so many POV's from the cat 1,2 race and it looks so awesome and yet so hard, sad about the race though!😒

Can that front wheel be rebuilt, or was the rim compromised?

7:45 >foreshadowing... yeah the thumbnail exists we know what happens.

Do most or any of you have some sort of insurance on your bikes?

Any chance we'll get a mikes bikes breakdown of pro nationals? there were so many of you!

Love Tulsa Tough!

I used to race bicycles. Didn’t love it aside from TTs. You basically get out there with the most expensive and delicate cycling shit (which is already overpriced and too delicate) you have and hope you don’t crash all while doing a group ride where everyone is yelling and behaving like a jackoff and your reward if you win is like a free set of Continental GP4000s in 23mm width the shop sponsors couldn’t unload in the last 14 years.

Was the guy behind you ok? He locked out fast but his leg looks badly bent, also blood caught on camera.

Is the juice worth the squeeze?

Devin moved slightly left so the rider who was passing him leaned in a bit.

Do you guys have an insurance to fix the bike or are you paying it out of the pocket? This looks like a couple people each crit are getting a $1-2000 bill additionally to the scratches aso

Some guy sounds like he’s screaming in agony after that crash grabbing his leg in the rearview

All these just serves to cement my belief enjoyment of pro cycling stops at buying a pro bike, with in if the pro level riding. I’m happy being a poser on a 20k bike riding at 20kph, 20km to the nearest cafe and then heading home to call it a day after that

The other two that went down, were they ok?

This is cool, 1st time seeing this type of racing. Looks badass, not some soft shit.

@9:17 what's that dripping?

He should have pushed back the rider on the left. Being on the drops would have helped that. This allows your elbows to move out and protect your drops from being hooked from behind.

Tough crash! it seems Devon moved left over the centerline way before the riders in front, putting down power to go on the inside of the rider in front. maybe he should have stuck on the wheel in front instead of trying to make a move into the corner, which looks to be more unpredictable than the other guy moving up on the left into open space.

Great work, but - as someone who went through a couple of life-altering crashes racing, I would definitely appreciate a bit of a content warning at the beginning if there's going to be graphic footage of a crash in a video.

Does it have any consequences when a rider just straight up pushes another one into a third?

Wow, dude on the left… what a goof 🤦‍♂️

POV you lean up against a belt sander

Nothing happens to the guy that caused the crash?

Not as expensive - usa terms ... Only material dmges because the hospital would be more expensive

That guy who leans into Devin needs to be penalized in some way, punishment should not only be in the world tour level events. That other rider pushing you over was uncalled for, unnecessary, and just plain dangerous. He needs to be suspended from upcoming events to say the least.

Overlapping wheels

I got a sampler pack of LMNT with a Feed order. Every last one of them tasted like absolute garbage. Maybe raspberry is the only drinkable one because everything else I had made seawater taste reasonable

The worst part of this is taking a shower with that road rash.

Your elbows were locked not bent.

I have never seen so much bad bike handling and riding skills.... Like really, never seen something so sketchy when I raced.

9:10 what you came here for.

That guy on the left is a poor bike handler - a twitcher in the parlance of pro riding - and either lacks situational awareness or intentionally crashes people. He had full view of what was coming and still bumped someone right into a line of riders moving left. I'm just gonna say it because the channel is too polite here: a JERK move. I know crit stuff happens but this is inexcusable in any race. I know it's not sanctionable but I hope he's at least marked for future races as the unsafe rider he is and people learn to avoid him.

And this is exactly why i will never ride crits in USA - some doofus will risk 10 lives to win a bag of Skratch. No thank you

They need tp narrow the course to 1.5 lanes and put some hairpins and more corners. Otherwise people don't have anywhere to make a difference and have to take risk. Bike raci g shouldn't be a nascar race.

rider on the left did him dirty. Realistically, I don't think there was much if anything that he could have done... had to have been insanely frustrating.

Of course you won with state wheels. I love my state blacklabel single speed with ebay carbon rims.

OOOPSSSS, YOUR BAD!

uuuugh. so painful to watch.

congratulations Dev!
