    First...sorry to hear this and glad you're relatively OK. Second, please don't say you were "hit by a car"...You were hit a * *person* * driving a car. There is a subtle but distinct difference. Even the media and law enforcement get it wrong sometimes. Leaving the driver out of the equation tends to further reinforce the belief that they are somehow less responsible for what happened. I'm a bit sensitive to this since my wife was hit by a 90-year-old man driving a Silverado in 2017 (broken back and ultimately recovered) and I just went to the funeral of a long-time cycling friend who was struck and killed by a motorist 2 weeks ago. (Sorry for the rant. Love your channel! I have learned a ton about crit racing strategy here!)

      from my crash I learned the word accident was used so repeatedly by lawyers to try and remove blame from the driver at fault. I called it an accident and my lawyer said "no it was a crash and the driver was at fault, he could have avoided it."

      ​@@tjtennisicmroll2k You're wrong. Thats not how the wording works. Hit by a vehicle(cyclist at fault). Vehicle hits cyclist(driver at fault). Big difference. Responsibility lies with both the driver AND the vehicle in incidents involving pedestrians or cyclists. Some kids are run over in the parking lot or drive way BECAUSE of the vehicle being too big to see them. Even if the driver backing up is extra cautious they can't see what they can't see. Factors like vehicle's size and visibility collectively influence road safety, it's not just the driver's actions. Thats like this talk of firearms being not at fault for all the mass shootings but they're used and people want to deny responsibility of such a tool being attributed to all that tragedy.
      Ted talk huh? 🤣

    What was Sean's input? I'm assuming he just decided to hug Luke's wheel and come around him. Paid off.

    • @xVertOx
      @xVertOx 10 місяців тому +6

      Fortunately it did. However, if you say that you will do a leadout for your sprinter and then sprint for yourself - I'd question Sean's ability to work for the team. Cycling is a team sport and for me, if you act as a team member but then play for yourself, I'd not like to have such person as a team mate. Imagine a situation where Sean is a tyre length behind Luke - you get no win, your team mate fkd up his job and overall situation is far from optimal. This is my take on it. Nevertheless, happy that TMB took the win.

    • @mummafier
      @mummafier 10 місяців тому +4

      Yeah I agree. I thought Sean was going to lead Ryan out but I guess he never got a chance to get in front of Ryan to pull for him so he chose the next best thing.

  • @andrasszabo1570
    @andrasszabo1570 10 місяців тому +3

    Question: why risk a sprint against a soon-to-be World Tour pro like Luke Lamperti?
    With 8 riders, surely the play would be attacking him with everybody and have only the sprinter and maybe a leadout sit on his wheel?
    A leadout train doesn't gain your team that much advantage, unlike an aggressive tactic.

    • @fernandovega5722

  • @roadcyclist1
    @roadcyclist1 10 місяців тому +3

    So this chris guy at the end says he was happy to perform a leadout. I didn't see him lead anyone out...i saw him get led out and try to sprint for the win.

    • @xVertOx
      @xVertOx 10 місяців тому +2

      Well, as Sean was 2 wheels behind him all that time, that was clearly a lead out. Just see how many watts during the last lap cost him to start his own sprint.
      Plus, it's not this chris guy but actually the strongest rider in TMB Ryan, respect it man.

    • @kidsafe
      @kidsafe 10 місяців тому

      The final 2 corners had Jack, Gavin, Ryan (not Chris) and then Sean+Luke. It was supposed to be Sean in front of Ryan, but for whatever reason that didn't happen. Ryan did what he needed to do in that situation.

    • @shaunb93291
      @shaunb93291 10 місяців тому +1

      that was Ryan and there was a touch of sarcasm there as I believe he was the protected sprinter without his final leadout man and he ended up leading out the sprint. Just a guess:)

    I'm pretty much a dinosaur and am familiar with the saying: If you don't have anything good to say, don't say it at all. But with that said, what's up with the long socks? I know they've been around a long time, but I don't know why. They look hideous. Also, I imagine it completely ruins your tan lines and prevents you from exposing your goofy tan in the summer months. Cyclist's legs are beautiful. Why not expose them in all their glory? P.S. Sorry to hear about the car incident. I hope your injuries are not serious.

    Glad you're ok. I noticed in your other recent video ("Is my Wheel Ok?"), you stated at the end that you came in top 20. That statement didn't pass the eyeball test from your video, so I looked up the Intelligensia Chicago result and you came in 46th. Wondering if you make untrue statements like that from time to time.

    • @NorCalCycling
      @NorCalCycling  10 місяців тому +3

      I didn’t have the results sheet in front of me while doing the commentary so I also used the eyeball test and thought I was around 20th, later found was 24th. Wouldn’t call it an untrue statement just a best guess, but kind of irrelevant anyway bc I just gave up with about a half lap to go like I said in the commentary. You’re looking at the wrong race.
