    Seriously underrated UA-camr. Hard to believe the relatively low sub count when content is this good.

      I think his thumbnails are a barrier . Looks like the more cleaner thumbnails resonates better within the target group.

      @@MarkLewisfitness the thumbnails are awesome at the moment. they're different. You're starting to appear in recommended for people but it is a niche viewership compared to main youtube audience. and will take a while to speed up sub count.

      @@MarkLewisfitness Haha, legend! I’m not the judge here, the views are! I have no idea about what’s working or not, but I’ve noticed that more and more youtubers are cutting the amount of colors and text in their thumbnails, both more «normal» youtuber but also the bike/fitness/training channels. I don’t know if it’s all branding or if the youtube algorythm favors cleaner thumbnails. On Facebook for example, your ads won’t be approved if the ad picture consists of more than 30 % text.
      BTW: Absolutely love your content! Just a matter of time before this blows up, so keep going!!!

    Awesome video. I'm in Richmond, Virginia in real life. Love all the content, the honesty and the humor...Nixon and the whole crew. Kudos to Jen on her new journey. Ive struggled with binge eating for years. Lost over 180 pounds, but put on weight last year with injuries and skin removal surgery, +40. Your thoughts on calorie deficit and training are something I think about often on long runs and rides often. Keeps good perspective and expectations. Now getting lean for 70.3 North Carolina in October . Keep it up Mark!

    So gutted for you! (Though, I actually think you had a chance to win if you'd "raced properly"). I stuffed up my own race, too, was too far back in the bunch when we hit the KOM at the end, didn't spot the attack going off the front and ended up scraping an 8th place out of the resulting wreckage.

    This is the race I decided to not go for sprint points and to try to hold on and I was able to hold on and domestique for my team mate and get him the win.. Strange enough is I managed to score 3x in the primes due the front group being so much faster than the rest of the field. zwiftpower.com/events.php?zid=1790145 you have to go to Cat D tho :P -- never mind, I didn't select fastest time, I was on fastest thru...

    Sounds dodgy Mark - my son surprised me a few weeks ago when he bought a Wahoo Kickr Bike for us both to share for training - 1st bike appeared - free-hub was faulty - send video to Wahoo blah, blah - 2 weeks later bike No 2 appears - that didn’t work either!
    Now waiting for bike No 3...plus we have 2 dodgy bikes waiting for the boxes to send back. Also worrying that they have a video on their website on how to dismantle the bike to return...🤔🤔🤔

    Bottom line… it’s time for new gear…get a good quality carbon frame, synapse maybe with all Dura-Ace…. Get your setup done right and take on the field…. It’s hard enough to post good times… without every second video I watch be some sort of mech failure… which is not at all funny…. Start soliciting donations… and change your gear!!!!😮
