These guys are having a casual conversation and I wouldn't be able to even keep up or have enough breath to talk. truly amazing.
-
Nice to know that even the pros have mystery creaks and clicks on their $10k+ bikes
-
Amazing how relaxed they are on the bike. Dude just casually took a swig from his water bottle going 75 kph
-
Romain Bardet is such a smooth descender. And I love how genuine and humble is, a true champion and one of my favourite bike riders
-
From the desert to the ocean...Wonderful California! I would have gladly taken a bath after the downhill gallop. Btw Romain is a very pleasant, humble and generous boy. He struck me when Alaphilippe fell among the pines of a forest - always downhill - and Romain threw the bike away, gave up the race to run to rescue him. Love this champion!

19:39 That uphill hands-free is badass.
-
Bardet is so smooth on the bike. Such a class act.
-
bardet, one of the best descenders in the world tour! fuck yeah!
-
even at 50mph around on a corner, they can take one hand of the bar and point out road debris ! amazing. The Euro pros are so smooth in their bike handling.
-
The way bardet took that gilet off.......💯class
-
Best Bike Content on YouTube. I really adore these videos. They're so calming and meditative. Also every Video has stunning roads and views. Please never stop doing this.
-
The riding etiquette, especially at those speeds, is super impressive. I’d be just trying to hang on for dear life at 70kph and not be able to point out obstacles.
-
Damn, that layer peel off at 36km/hr on an incline 👩🍳
-
Incroyable de voir Romain avec Safa ahaha Un clermontois !!
-
Wow. These guys are a different level. Amazing how well they ride together.
-
Romain Bardet's descent of the Col d'Allos in the 2015 Criterium du Dauphine is well worth watching!
-
Great job keeping up with and filming a couple of pros having fun on our roads. Liked the way Romain nonchalantly takes off his jacket no hands at speed.
-
Hats off to these guys, in my 20's I could only dream of being that good in my 50's seeing them descend that fast scares the C$%P out of me
-
Casually peeling off a layer, pushing 550 watts with no hands! Awesome video!
-
First time I remember Bardet was in Crit de Dauphine and it was a wet descent and he rode away from from everyone and won the stage.
