Thank you brother for not bastardizing your videos with music overlay. Raw authentic content with road noise, wheel hub noise, chain noise and most beautifully gear change sound. keep it up and may God continue to protect you on the streets!!
Imagine you're riding the ride of your life. Speed is great, endurance is great, heartrate couldn't be better. You feel so strong, you can make everything. And then: 'GOOD MORNING!" ...
@@StickNclutch These guys could smoke those other riders on a base Specialized Allez. Strength and conditioning are far more important than the bike itself. Though obviously high-end groupsets and nice stiff carbon frames like these guys have do help. "Don't buy upgrades, ride up grades"
They aren't chilling at all. This is a FTP-like ride. Didn't you notice how the ride was short, or their position on the bike (not like someone going z2), or the film-maker heart-rate ?
Man another banger. These videos with Dante are so dope brotha, hope to see more colab in the future. These videos make me wanna get on my bike and rip it. Beautiful scenery and just some nice cycling.
This is beautiful to watch. The production is pro using 24fps with correct shutter speed causing the blur on every movement. Probably the best biking I've seen so far.
Watching these videos makes me miss LA so much.... Lived there for 5 years and went to Malibu almost every single weekend for 3 of them. Thanks for the good vibes and nostalgia!
I went thru the same in 1993 arthroscopic knee surgery. Thorn meniscus, cracked kneecap and cartilage gone about 80%. Thank God I'm 95% recovered riding an average of 200 miles a week.
So well recorded, really immersive to watch. Pure effortless cycling, that sprint at the end is mega. It's guys like this who make cycling cool, seems like a really nice guy too :)
Started riding this route before you were born. There was even a TT in the colony back in the day. I live in Az. now so it was cool to relive this ride. And you are fast.
Riding fixed in the passed with Dante was amazing, so much talent and skill took him so far and I'm amazed at everything he's accomplished over the years🔥🔥🔥
LOVE watching these videos...I lived in Smell Lay between 1993 and 2002 and PCH became my go-to weekend course. This is bringing back so many memories!
Hahahaha was thinking to myself "damn these rides must be so dope for SAFA, just sitting in and getting nice draft" and then Dante goes @19:20 "ya boys a little tired... cuz Safa aint take no pulls!" LMAOOO
*I just bought a little 20" folding bike that's super fast and customized, I ride this thing 10+ miles per day on the bike trails around my house for exercise and I can easily maintain 20 mph on this small bike just like a full sized road bike. If you don't own a bike you don't know what you're missing.*
@@xTheNameisEthan Don’t worry, I’m starting out right now at “I can’t even _hit_ 25 MPH on my e-bike yet”. 🤣 Doesn’t matter though, I still love it! Never gonna quit.
I am impressed by the speed and the fact that the cameraman could keep up. In the past, I've ridden on pch doing centuries, and never had anyone this fast pass me. Amazing. What I didn't like was seeing him blow through stop signs, I've never done that. I make an effort to almost come to a complete stop, so I don't tip over, but never just blow through. He was going to go through the red light and saw the cop on the left side. Good idea not to run them. But I do wish I had the legs.
You guys were probably averaging 300W the entire time… thanks for taking me among on a ride with you guys! Love the POV! Me and my boys gotta try to make vids like this here in NYC and NJ
..."you're boys a little tired, cuz SAFA ain't takin' no pulls...what's up with that?"...Dante says at 29mph! Great video SAFA, love how you've dialed the audio.
Im just a stocky kid from Queens but I feel this ride so much like I'm Cali born n bred....love this cats style he pushes hard, great pace #californiadreaming
Love the *squealing* disc brakes. Road disc brakes are pretty great, in terms of stopping power, modulation and consistency. However, the very tight tolerances between pads and disc can be frustrating to set up without rub, and it only takes a slight ding to the rotor to have a constant noise that can be tricky to remedy. So, a thought experiment. Why are the pads so close to the rotor? In order to get the most mechanical leverage - a big movement at the lever equals a small movement at the pads. But why do we need that much leverage? Because the rotors are very small, so to be able to slow the much larger rotating mass of the wheel, we have to squeeze the rotor tightly. Therefore if the rotor was bigger, we could have a caliper with the pads further away, and this would be fine as we wouldn’t need as much mechanical advantage. To take this to the extreme example, what if the rotor was the size of the rim? Like 622 mm in diameter. In looking at this problem, it became apparent that it would be possible to dispense with a separate rotor and use the rim of the wheel as the braking surface. Testing of different materials for the braking surface and the pads concluded that a machined aluminium surface and standard pads provides fantastic dry weather braking. With the rotor being almost five times bigger than normal, the brake pads can be several millimetres clear of the braking surface without sacrificing power. This would make brake rub nonexistent even if the wheel goes a little out of true. It also turns out that a well designed mechanical caliper can provide all the power and modulation required - no need for the usual hydraulics. It turns out a steel cable will do this job admirably!

I'm just a fat guy riding an old indoor bike, seeing if I can keep pedaling for as long as you guys rolled. Thanks for helping me out!
everyone starts somewhere 👍👍👍
Agree with guy on bottom
Get you an outside bike! You deserve it. Everyone starts small. I was fat too.
I have one, just need a good set of wheels for it. Any suggestions. Thanks 😊

Me to 🤣🤣
Woah, this makes me realize that bikes are hella underutilized by basically everyone in GTA V.
lol
It's actually calming watching people ride bikes. Getting mine tomorrow.👍
How’s your bike?
What kind did you get?
Best decision of my life to purchase one. Wish I would’ve done it earlier!! Enjoy riding
It is so fun i can ride all day

~170 bpm is NOT chilling.
Not allowed to be impressed by someone's athletic ability it seems, all the wankers come out and tell you off 🤣
that sprint up the slope at the end was incredible
Now that I’m a cyclist I appreciate these vids a lot helps me out
There are three things you can watch forever: fire burning, water flowing and somebody's working.
we need more Dante content!
Man another banger. These videos with Dante are so dope brotha, hope to see more colab in the future. These videos make me wanna get on my bike and rip it. Beautiful scenery and just some nice cycling.
this is by FAR one of the best rides i have seen on YT and i rly appreciate it
Thanks!
This is one of my fav videos for cycling idk why, the beach walk transition near the end and both of you make it look so effortless and calming
Gravel Meditations was fuego as well 🔥
Absolutely, incredible. I can’t imagine keeping that pace up for 30 seconds. My guy was at +178 bpms for over 30 minutes
The sound of the bike is so soothing it's like I'm riding my bike
Great vid. Love that he says good morning, he’s both a gentlemen & a charger. Never be too good to be humble & polite.
The sound of gears is so sweeet
Does anyone else love that unique sound of gear shifting?
That's the sound of Di2 ;)
@@borderwave2 no he has sram not shimano
personally,I do
No, it's like a drummer practicing
Right on...love the Di2 sound....
This is beautiful to watch. The production is pro using 24fps with correct shutter speed causing the blur on every movement. Probably the best biking I've seen so far.
Your 100 mile rides inspire me for my 10 mile rides! I could watch this all day. You guys rock.

Awesum cyclist, that uphill sprint at end was insane, dude got power in them legs!
Dude that blast at the end, holy shit. That was after that long ride too lol
More Dante please! The energy he brings and the sound of that bike. I ordered a black cycling jersey just now in the hopes I will look 10% as cool.
Me too🤣🤣
When you're unable to cycle due to a injury, these are the type of videos that keep me optimistic.
Hope you get better soon to be back to ride!!!
I went thru the same in 1993 arthroscopic knee surgery. Thorn meniscus, cracked kneecap and cartilage gone about 80%. Thank God I'm 95% recovered riding an average of 200 miles a week.
Keep up that optimism Chris you'll be fine hopefully will together in the near future!

36:36 - Holy sit! Almost 1.5kW of power.

This guy is pushing 2 freaking horsepower, that's just huge for human power. Damn
Yea and it was after riding 35 min at 170-180 bpm. :O
I think Dante's was around 1.7 or 1.8! :D
Beast
This video and Training Ride with Dante Young videos are the best road bike riding I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing the videos.
Must be nice to have so much power in your legs. Thanks for posting. Good luck w/upcoming season.
Dual quad thrusters😂
I’m probably gonna watch this video about 6 or 7 times.... at least...
Why?
That's my medicine for that crazy April weather.
Love these videos, perfectly filmed and the sound is soooo important👌

This one is a classic. Safa always providing amazing content in front of or behind the camera.

I am watching from Philippines 🇵🇭
Pareho tol
Motivating and inspiring young man. Keep it up Dante!
More Dante Young! Incredible athlete!
I've started sitting on my top tube like Dante at the start of this video, and it has made me at least 10% cooler

Surely.for thoz who DNT HV,get to the road.its quit amazing.
Dante is smashing it. He is amazing
I had a nostalgia that I have never had before when I watched this.. I think this was in GTA V or something
Definitely had flashbacks of flying down the highway doing bunker sales
No fixed gear bull. Actually has gears and rim brakes. Love it!
Oh, man.
Riding fast that close to those parked cars.
I got scared and had to leave the video.
He's a crazy man!
This is my favorite video you’ve produced!!!
Santa Monica's farmers market summer recommendations: harry's berries seascapes, chandler, and gaviotas, burkhart orchards flavor grenades and white peaches, weiser family farms canary melons, sea canyon yellow watermelons.
I love how Dan just comment, greet and talk to people on the way. Such a nice dude
Question for Dante and Brian:how long were you cycling before you could average 25mph on the flats?
Right like I’m pretty new to cycling and pretty out of shape and o average maybe 12 mph lol
@@xTheNameisEthan Don’t worry, I’m starting out right now at “I can’t even _hit_ 25 MPH on my e-bike yet”. 🤣

36:35 that sprint was crazy
These are the dudes that hold the KOMs in my area, going 50kmh up a hill lol
Living vicariously through you.
I like uploads with Dante. Deliver more please.
This goes to show why Legion has a good group of lead out riders with that kind of towing power.
Is Dante still with Legion?
He's not with Legion...he was training on Cervelo equipment in Colorado last I saw.
He hasn’t been with legion in some time.. I would say almost a year if not close... keep up
Still curious why the falling out....
he was kinda kicked. not legitimately kicked, but removed. check out his old instagram post
Waiting for that monster sprint ever since the la will save cycling video dropped.
I don't know why but there's something special about Dante. He seems like a cool guy, very agile, very strong. I enjoyed every minute. (36:34 🚀)
Love seeing scenery from my hometown!
You are not safa brian. You are the BRAIN👍
Maaan he asked "you ready" then he gone... Aspirations right there. Shit I need to hit the gym harder.
Good stuff! 👍🏿 decades ago with UCLA cycling we used to practice TTT on PCH. I hated riding on PCH! Lol
I road PCH one time that was enough for me
at 160bpm Im already gasping for air, . He's at 170-180bpm and just chillin
Nice route. Love the quick “good morning” while passing a mountain bike at 10xs the speed lol
wish I had found this channel last winter for all my indoor rides!
You sounded just like everyone in the "Californians" sketch on SNL at the beginning lol

can't watch this, someone opens a door and poor dude is toast. dante, you are too valuable to go down like that brother.
He had enough room
that's one serious ride, really enjoy it watching
Ive watched your other vides. This is this the best analytic graphic set. Cool Channel
He put in that kind of effort and was able to have a casual conversation at the end... I would have been gassed

When he was passing the guys at 1:51, I was like "on your left" :D
seeing another brother biking makes me so happy
This video motivates me to get better and faster
Crazy sprint up that last hill. Can't believe he didn't even make the leaderboards on that segment!
I'm surprised they allow bicycles on that path; it's pretty narrow.
Probably some E-biker who got the KOM/QOM
@@Qmotionn some of the times are legit but I the kom on that segment is definitely not legit.
@@abone2pick yeah some of my local KOM's on the MTB route have 75km/h hits, even when it's slightly uphill.
