How BIG is the difference between a beginner and a pro cyclist? We put it to the TEST! head to head in handling skills, power numbers and endurance speed and the results will SURPRISE YOU!
* The cycling kit in this video: 👉 srko.co/verkuijl
Roel is a BBQ expert and has just started cycling this year and has (when we shot the video) about 600km of cycling experience. That is about 1-2 hours a week for 6 months. He is a cycling fanatic already but still has a lot to learn about bicycles and training. In this video I'm not only comparing our skills and power numbers, I'm also teaching Roel a few things about cycling. Think about tire pressure, power meter, how to brake hard, how to do a track stand etc etc.
I (Jasper) have a bit more experience in cycling with about 20 years of BMX racing background and racing road bikes since 2017. I train about 10-15 hours a week which comes down to +- 15.000km a year. I'm not actually a Pro cyclist, but I've raced with and against pro's and I'm very serious about training. A very big difference to Roel. But how does this difference in experience and training show in our skills, power numbers and speed? How fast am I compared to Roel? Can Roel even follow my wheel if he wanted to? Those are the questions we will answer in this video!
