EJ is a sprinter that rides like a TT rider. As soon as he rides like Jeff he's going to be nearly unstoppable. I've enjoyed watching the progression.

I don't do crits, I don't race, I don't even ride road, but this has been the most entertaining and enjoyable series ever. I'm a mountain biker with a little gravel sprinkled in but watching these rides and EJs entire journey has been the most enjoyable way to spend time on my trainer ever...almost enough to get me on a road bike....nah, not quite, but almost. So fun to watch and the dynamic between Jeff and EJ is fantastic. Keep it up guys, great work!

But I am way stronger my average speed for a 25mile ride here in Miami (all flat) 19mph to 22mph. I feel amazing. As an ex football player it has been the best transition .. 🤣✌🏾🇵🇷

A bit more about ketones: the effect of ketones is massivly overrated by a lot of people in the sport. Most of your body's organs can mainly use carbohydrates and fats as a source of energy. (and in case of these two nearly running out, there is a way of converting proteins to a source of energy, but this is not relevant here). During an effort, say for instance a cycling race, your muscle's will mainly be using carbohydrates as an energy source. sounds familiar right? the thing is, your brain is a bit of a different organ. It can solely use carbohydrates as an energy source, and not fats or even proteins in the form of amino acids. But when your body has run out, or is very low on carbohydrates, that technically means your brain cells would die of because they don't have an energy source. The body has a way of preventing/prolonging this: ketones. they are made in the liver from free fatty acids (fat) and are able to pass trough the blood-brain barries (unlike fats) and thus are able to compensate a bit for the lack of carbohydrates. The aim in using ketones in cycling, is to fuel your brain on ketones, subsequently leaving more carbohydrates for the muscles to use. however, we cant tell our brain to ONLY use ketones, and not carbohydrates, so as long as there are carbohydrates (which every racing cyclist ingests before and during a race) they will also be used by the brain. so technically ketones will give your body a tiny bit more energy, but the effect is really minimum, especially for the price of them compared to carbohydrate sources. Even in top tier world tour teams like Jumbo Visma, only their top athletes get them in certain races, because the price just doesn't wheigh up to the gain in performance.

i’ve read ketones are usually only good for long endurance races, i’m only a couple minutes into this video but i’m interested to see if you noticed any difference in a crit while on the ketones. also i didn’t notice, what form of ketones and home many mgs did you take..?

Not only do you have a limited amount of surges in a race but as temperatures start to rise and the heat comes back it's a whole other ball game and those short bursty efforts are much, much more taxing than when there's a cool breeze and mild weather. July in Canada is hot and suffocating because of the immense humidity and I find I have to be even more strategic with my energy expenditure. Been following since my crash in 2020 and my titanium collarbone (our badge of honour for bike racing) EJ! When are you getting your own plate/s!!?? 😂😜

The way pro-tour teams use ketones at this point, is a ketone shot immediately after the finish. Its beneficial effects are mostly for recovery. It doesn't actually help cycling performance itself that much, and it takes away resources from regular energy sources that your body can use way more efficiently

EJ should check out track racing. With that kind of power and overall physiology he is designed and built for the track. Endurance rider most likely, but his natural instantaneous power makes me think he might even be a good kilo rider, or anything he tries his hand at.
