Zwift - Group Ride: Off The MAAP 2025: Stage 2  on NYC KOM After Party in New York

EZ test #2

8th finisher, around 12th time overall, over 600km solo 🥲. Really happy with this result considering the circumstances.

Startwave A turned out pretty shit with a really long a slow neutral phase with two motorbikes in front that went 30 on a downhill, pretty dangerous with 200+ people in the startwave. Afterwards got sent the wrong way by the front car so everyone had to turn around. Group went really slow, pulled a gap a few times on accident after a front pull. Little race to the first timing mat at 119k after a climb where I ended first so nice energy wasted but it was fun.

Group B caught up with us before the first checkpoint. At the first checkpoint I refilled my 4 bottles with Maurten but that made me miss the front group because most of them got their bottles handed. After ended up some parts solo or a small group and around 300-400 I think a bigger group of about 20 that went really slow and no one wanted to put in any work. Went 28-29 at times and people still didn't hold the wheel. So me and 3 other went away but at one point after a checkpoint I ended up solo. Was really looking forward to the checkpoint at 435km where Daniel Backhaus and Tomas Groeneveld were waiting for me with supplies. Efficiënt stop and rode solo for a while when I got caught by Sascha Hubbert and Rick Steffen who I know from Zeeland brevet and started in group D. Really strong guys and we went really fast for a while around 34-35 but halfway at Brest checkpoint (around 19:30 since start) Sascha needed some time to recover. I continued with Rick but after a while he started to regret leaving Sascha and decided to wait. I was really tired and already thought about adjusting my goal to 48 hours. Looking forward to meeting with Daniël again at 780km (this time joined by Kim and Aron👶). While getting a stamp I ran into Sascha and Rick again who were surprised to see me. Tried to catch them afterwards but caught Sascha but Rick was solo and I couldn't keep up with Sascha anyway after a short while. 

Before I was dark I ended up on the part of the parcours where a lot of people were around 375k so this was really good for morale to see them and to know I was over twice as far already (although some of them started up to 14h later). I had to take 5min powernap break at 00:00, 2:00 and 5:00 but was riding quite decent pace and very efficient. At the 1020k checkpoint a group of 4 arrived 30s after me. This really helped me step up the game to speed up to stay in front of them. When the sun came up I really struggled to stay awake. Legs were fine so I tried to go as fast a possible to stay awake but my eyes just closed every second. I stopped and closed my eyes for 1-2 minutes which helped a little bit. 

Got caught up 60km before the finish by the 4 guys who were riding really fast. I joined them but was doing really bad bacause I had a hard time staying awake and staying focused at the same time. I thought about letting them go but that would mean ending up outside top 10 finish. We caught up Sascha who was doing not so well just before the Dreux checkpoint with 45km to go where my dad was waiting for me with a drink so I didn't have to refill bottles. We left the checkpoint but soon the other guys stopped at their support crew so this was the moment that I knew I had to go all out to the finish to stay in front of them. Sascha tried this best to hold on, his garmin was in power saving mode at 3% but he was as well 😂. I gave him a energy bar with 10k to go and with 4k to go I raced solo to the finish.

At the finish my friend Wendy van Roosmalen and my Dad and his wife Marion were waiting for me. Felt the worst I ever felt in my life. Way worse than after 24h races or RaTN. I got the finishers meal which was great to eat something savory after 48 hour of sweet shit. Although I couldn't taste much. I think around 10 different volunteers asked me if I was ok because I was looking so bad. Afterwards we went back to the accommodation where I took a short nap before going back to the finish to see Nicole van Batenburg finish in 52:11 as 2nd woman 🥰.

Nutrition around 22x Maurten 320 and 40x beta fuel chew. Plus 4 protein bars, some cola, monster, caffeine pills and elektrolyte drinks. 200mg caffeine before the start and around 100mg every 3 hours.
