Tour Down Under 2024 How The Pros REALLY Train! 

Satisfying seeing you riding with those pros again. Best content you make.

Lol. "Everyone knows who you are". Love him or hate him, the guy fucking bikes.

proof that you really dont need an expensive bike when you just dont need it for a race. just doing casual fun cycling at pro speed

Great to see you back cycling with the pros💪

why dont they wear gloves??😨i havent even been in wreck that would slash up my hands and i still wear my gloves! plus they help absorb some of that shock.

Where Are the Teams with the S-works Tarmac?The Must be the Slowest .....😄

"I prefer the light bikes", classic reply.

These are your best videos by a country mile. Love them

It's funny how everyone from ineos knows you have the white sworks sl8.

„Everyone knows who you are“ proofs that even the pros looking for your advice 👍

Uncle Chester needs to join these guys again.....

is this a demonstration of zone 2 conversational pace?

No wonder you are most ,popular , recognized cyclist on the planet ! Great work 💪🚴‍♂🔥🏆

Love this mate, absolutely banging! This guys are simply not paid enough, absolutely nails! 👍🏼💜🇬🇧

Have you ran into any of the Specialized folk over for the TDU? 😬

It’s not the bike it’s a the rider

I prefer the light bikes - hilarious. Lighter than what you pros are riding.

Great footage but you're kidding yourself if you think old bikes are still a better ride. An old light bike will be still be great for low speed climbing but it will be be slower & feel much less confident on the faster flats & descents compaired to a modern bike. Even a 1kg weight saving will only make a few seconds difference in a 20 minute climb for a rider your weight but aerodynamics and handling become more far more important than weight once speeds get over 40kph. Check this climb on Strava. The pros go up it at 29kph to 30kph when they are trying. These videos are 60% race pace training rides for them. Lets see you post a really fast solo ride over a reasonable distance or race an A grade crit against modern bikes on a bike of this vintage. I'm an ex pro bike mechanic in my mid 50's who has ridden well over 100000 kms in the last decade & I have owned & ridden 100's of different bikes. As much as I love the older classic bikes the new tech like electronic shifting, wider tubeless tyres, hydro disc brakes, bigger range of gears & more aero or more complient frames is honestly a good thing for most riders. At the end of the day just ride whatever makes you happy & not all new bike tech is progress but some new bikes just feel amazing to ride compared to what we had 15 years ago.

love these videos! Are you planning on Vlogging one of your long endurance rides again? a 600k perhaps? With what you eat etc?

narvaez got the legs of a bull. man he can srpint but gl droping him on the hills. im from the same city as narvaez, carapaz, cepeda and many other. i get the chance to ride with this pros like you do, and it really is something to see your power compared to a pro. when we ride with narvaex he does like z2 and everyone is in the back busting ass hahaha i love it

@durianrider how to avoid and recover from tendonitis

But how do you keep up with the pro's with only 9 gears?

SHUGA SHUGA SHUGA FOR DA FUCKIN WIN!!! DR back at it!!!

That’s my favorite bike frame of all time the once tcr 2001 that’s the model I’m using atm 10 speed .. 160cranks

Dr. Adelaide gettin it done again and again and again.

As much as I love a good rim brake bike, those Madone’s make my mouth water.

Good vid!!! My first time stopping by. Thx! Good to see some Adelaide too! I race cars….I raced the Race of 1000 Years in Adelaide….New years Eve day, 2000. Had a great time in Adelaide, a good race too. Thx again for your vid…i subscribed. Cheers!!! 🚴

I notice all the pros are wearing Aero socks.

Watching your videos are more realistic.

classic type video cheers for us on the couch

just got a synapse hi mod with ultegra for 450 usd.

For examples of climbing uphill check out the Yates brothers.

I cycle 21 km to and from work everyday. That's 42 km. Highway backroads. 5 massive climbs. I'm a carpenter

TCR getting it done 🥰…..those disc brake plastic bikes look like torture riding uphill 🤗

Can't avoid the bike porn, sorry. Those Wilier Filantes look sweet👌. Thanks for the video DR, great footage.

great footage

These videos are great content man! If you can bring in the Garmin or whatever just to see the data for wattage and route that would be even more fun to watch. Some constructive criticism! I am on the organic cane sugar intra-workout everyday and it is the single biggest performance enhancer I have had w/ early nights. High cadence, high wattage, long duration rides pumping the lymphatic system is the best

Thank you for sharing such an inspiring video. It has motivated me to get back on my bike and explore new adventures.

You followed Narvaez wheel and the guy won the stage one of TDU. Luck from you perhaps 😂😅

the kids saddle is a bit high...

Guys super friendly. Very nice of them..

PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING YOU CAN KEEP UP 🚀

Lol the bmc with lightweight wheels is better than all the pros bikes

Pros are manipulated to ride for free for a price of an overhyped bike. Sad but true. Look at a cookie man he didn’t become millionaire when racing road.

Specialized SL8 is 😎 🆒️.

17 years old kid riding rim, yes sir

Rim brake for the win❤

It's always a great insight when you ride with the teams each year.

👍🏾👌🏾

Best in the game!!

Fun to see you riding with the pros ! Not much about how they train though except saying that they polarize their training more than most regular cyclists. You should make some shots of your retro bike while pedalling alongside the pros :-)

Note to Durianrider: These riders are not wearing gloves 😅

they love ya Harley!

3:19 Who is Mr.ThunderThighs here?

Great to see them being cool to you. The izalco was such a cool frame

I'm here for the hips and tints

Awesome to hear that all the pros watch your channel mate 👍

11:30 .. What the socks!!!

🙌🙌

Start Adelaide training camps from January to April you would have hundreds of Brits coming to ride there.In the UK today I rode in temperatures that were minus ➖ 3 degrees throw in the wind chill factor minus ➖ 5.

Go duracell 😅

adelaide so good! best place ever

GREAT VID

More cycling videos! These are the best.

Living off the buttsmarn

how many pros recognise you?

My most recent FTP test was 152 watts. I doubt the could keep up with me. Should i go world tour?

Its great to hear that "everyone knows who you are"❤ The haters gonna hate even more

Nice footage Durian
