Hey, we're here again with trainer rooms. Jonathan Lee after stage two, single track six. John,

0:05.1

how you do? I have no information. I'm going in cold. How you doing?

0:09.5

Doing well. The stage did not, I made a big mistake today. The stage was, it was still good,

0:15.8

still a good time. Got to see tons of trainer road users out there like subscribers, athletes.

0:23.2

It's amazing. That part was really cool. But yeah, I made big mistakes today. Should we go

0:28.1

over the stage? Let's go over the stage and then I'll say the mistakes. That work.

0:33.1

Okay. Yeah, sure. So today's stage was supposed to be 27 miles. It's foreshadowing there.

0:42.2

And then in terms of climbing, it had like 3400 or 3500 feet of climbing, I think.

1:39.8

leg. And in the chaos, he didn't buy my leg. Thank goodness. But in the chaos, I completely missed a

1:45.7

turn that I should have made because I was like, just trying not to die mostly. And I made the

1:53.0

mistake of not checking on my race because on my Garmin, I have three files. I have ride, train,

1:59.1

and race. And on riding train or at least on train, I have it set to not recalculate because Garmin's

recalculating is like famously bad, particularly with trails. So, but it's not set that way on my race
