In this video I am riding with Fabian Cancellara in an event called Zurich to Zermatt, which is part of the Chasing Cancellara series. In the final km's of this event Fabian rips it up and I attempt to follow his wheel. Can I get on his wheel of his new BMC Teammachine R? You'll have to wait and see.

    Cam, when you started this channel, did you ever think in your wildest dreams that you’d be riding with cancellara?! What a bloody legend, his exploits are one of the things that got me into cycling back in 2007. Your exploits and videos are one of the things that keeps me cycling today!

    Cam, you did a hellova lot better than guys watching your video would do. My experience trying to hold the wheel of pros has never gone well and trying to hold the wheel of one of the greats? Respect. Congrats riding with the great Cancellara. What an adventure. And yes what many of us have learned the hard way, genetically he is superior. A beast who also seems to be a lovely guy.

  • @matttilley8620
    @matttilley86207 ай бұрын

    Check out Greg LeMond's interview where he definitively states that riders have used motors. One tell-tale sign is a sudden ramping up of cadence when heart rate levels don't go through the roof. You can see in your introduction where Fabian takes off, leaving Boonen in the dust in Flanders. Boonen was chugging along, fighting the bike, whereas Fabian disappeared in a near instant. I don't care what you're doing here, but I take issue when anyone says naysayers are idiots. Ask LeMond what he thinks.

    The big thing that I notice right away is that stable pelvis goes completely out the window with the way he is attacking, his back is working with the pelvic sway to push more power smoothly to the pedals. He isn't hiding from anything and his spine is working.
