Ian is cray strong, but also a super nice guy. He came up to me at the start of the race, speaking broken French (because it's my first language) to wish me a great race. 🤟

That ending!!!👏. Congratz Mr. Boswell!!!

What I love about all those guys is how approachable they are. I spoke w basically all of them at the expo. They all are at a different level but still amazing ambassadors. Congratulations Ian!!

What a nice chap. Its like the old saying, be gracious in defeat and humble in victory. Well done 👍

it’s pretty easy to love Ian Boswell.

"I'm not as strong as when I was on the road" really gives perspective to how strong the WT riders are if Ian is strong enough to do this while at a lower fitness than he was 2 years ago.

As a rider and as a fan, it is so cool that these riders are so genuine. These are grand times for gravel.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! On the win but even more importantly on being a father. Nothing compares to being a dad, enjoy every moment!

Well done on the race and the win. Glad your career is continuing. Being a father is awesome. Get ready for thousands of days of goodness.

Very genuine man. Professionalism in the world of cycling was well said in this video.

I didn't know who he was before this race but I'm certainly a fan now

Checkout his podcast! I've enjoyed all of them, 'Breakfast With Boz'.

Congrats to you and Gretchen. I have 5 kids and it's special. Good luck to you guys and congrats on the win!! Been following you a long time and podcast, so happy for you

Bikes come in kid sizes. Good luck. Best winner's story I have seen.

What a great fella , well deserved success

Kinda can’t stop staring at that Rocket Espresso machine… 😳❤️☕️

So great that you got the win Ian, but definitely even greater that you're back on the bike and plainly loving it so much. To see you guys on the front, smashing it, enjoying each other's company and socializing too!! It's just lovely to see - Continue to do what your doing👏

I am so happy that the crash didn't stop him, it just changed his direction! Congratulations Ian! Couldn't have happened to a nicer or more deserving guy!

Just a regular guy. Very humble. Refreshing to see. Congrats on your upcoming addition.

I remember Ian coming up through the domestic ranks on Bissell. He has always been an exceptionally strong and classy bike racer. So awesome to hear his news at the end of this video.

Congratulations on the baby Mr & Mrs B. Great News 🥂

Legend… no more to be said!

Congrats Ian, being a father is the best thing in the world, its gona be your biggest challenge from now on, hope to see you racing soon 💪🏼🔥

I am so happy for you, Ian! I remember watching the daily TdF vlog's you did with your buddy and have been casually following you since. You're such a genuine person and I can't wait to see how the next chapter as a father turns out!

What a wonderful story ❤

I imagine being this good on a bike then I think of all the work and time these men and women have invested. Their level is not incidental and accidental. It's earned. I haven't earned what they have. I will be happy with my improving level.

They are genetically gifted! I could work and work and NEVER be that strong! That being said I agree with you and will be happy with "marginal" gains 😂

Congrats on the win! The only thing I can match you with is the bike we ride. Diverge all the way! 👍🏻

Congrats Ian and crew!!!!!! 🍻

Nice video and chapeau to Ian and all those who finished. He's a very likeable guy, not sure about his choice of shorts though...

Congratulations all around Ian! Great race.

Congrat Ian. So where are all the haters! These guys are legends. Awesome work.

Expecting Ian in Kenya for the Migration Gravel Race starting from 23rd to 26th this June. It's a 650km route taking place in 4 stages. It will be lit!

masterpiece

Nice when good guys succeed 👊🏻

I keep thinking what will I do after my Ironman... and here I am watching more and more gravel things! 🤔

Great video on and videographer

Humble

Looks like Teddy Bear is going to have to fight for all of his KOMs again up here in VT.

Ian, Congrats on the new kid! Keep us posted on how you balance riding with fatherhood. For me, having 3 boys under 5 yrs old, the ride is therapy.

❤️ 👌

Equipment check?

Back when I was racing, “gravel” races were just mountain bike races done on dirt roads. I find it a little sad that cycling keeps getting divided into more subcategories. I liked that we only had road and mountain bike racing (downhill was fairly specialized).

It’s gonna be ok… MTBs are still around and have their strong and safe place in the sport, road bikes are still around and have their strong and safe place in the sport…and now there’s a new exciting category, one thats attracting even more people to get into cycling for the first time, creating new racing and more revenue for small towns and brands that would otherwise not have any from the other categories ( road and MTB) , giving retired ( by choice or not) racers a new lease on life and the fans a very cool new sport to watch. No one is replacing MTB or road racing or the bikes, theyre just being joined by a sort raced o terrain that was usually ignored by the other two. The proof that this was missing in the sport is the popularity it garnered it such a short time. The other reason its popular is that much like marathons, these are events that regular folks like me can participaste in along side with the pros. Cant do that with MTB races or road races. Dont be that guy on a horse yelling at the first cars ;)

Actually. Wahoo Dad Watts.

Killer

Fix the audio mix on this

Basically all ex world tour racers are crushing everybody in gravel races in the US. So how well could do in gravel races top classics racers who are on the top now.. There would be crazy gap in fitness level... Sagan, MVDP, Van Aert guys from Quick step etc..

Yes Ian, Dad Life means a Dad Bod, just sayin...... Congratulations
