Indian Cycling Championship 2021 | Day 1 - ITT | Racing, Pacing, & Nutrition Analysis Ft Naveen John

Today I head over to Panvel to catch a glimpse of the 1st day of the 25th Indian National Cycling Championship. Today is the Individual Time Trial Event which is kicks off the championships Around 33 cyclists from around the country representing various states compete with each other over the course of 40 km. Each Cyclist will start riding the course at an interval of 1 min between each other. The time starts when a cyclist starts out & the clock stops when he/she crosses the finish line. The cyclist who takes the least amount of time wins! This race format is also called the race of truth, It may seem straightforward, however, the riders need to pace themselves well, stay in a very aerodynamic position in order to post their best time. I also got a chance to interact with the cyclists before the event & get to know them better & pick their brains as well In the end, we capture Naveen explaining the course, his racing & pacing strategy. As a bonus, he also tells us what he ate/drank before, during, & after the race!
