The UNBELIEVABLE Power Outputs Of Tour De France Cyclists! | GCN Show Ep. 600
🎥 Find the show and watch it on YouTube: GCN Show Ep. 600
The power output that the pro cyclists are producing this Tour de France are some of the highest in recent years with some averaging more than 300 watts for 4 hours! However, this Tour has also shown us that power alone cannot guarantee great performances, as the gravel stage slowed down the peloton due to many riders not having the 'skill' to find the right lines!
Dan and Si also go on to discuss some ridiculous fines imposed by the UCI at this Tour de France!
