The way they keep leap-frogging each other on the final descent really shows the advantage of riding in the draft.

Not only are SAFA's videos entertaining but they also teach a lot about road biking to a beginner which most other videos don't, also the speed, cadence and watts on the side are like icing on a cake. 😊
