Colnago V5Rs, Scott Foil or Tarmac SL8? My 200-Mile Race Dilemma

Which bike would you pick for 200 miles- the Colnago V5Rs, Scott Foil RC Pro, or Specialized Tarmac SL8? That’s the question I had to answer heading into the 2025 LOTOJA Classic, a brutal point-to-point race from Utah to Wyoming. In this video I walk through each bike- their strengths, weaknesses, and what really matters when you’re out on the road for 10+ hours. From tire clearance on the Foil, to the crash that sidelined my V5Rs, to the predictable comfort of the SL8… this is the story of how I chose my race setup for one of the longest days of the year. Along the way I’ll cover: - Why tire size and clearance are make-or-break over 200 miles - The exact gearing and wheel setup I’ll run this year - The small details that make the difference (helmet, shoes, kit, fueling) - Lessons learned from past LoToJa attempts (good and bad) What would you ride for 200 miles?
