Chasing Lachlan Morton

[@404Applejack]

This is one of the most genuine and wholesome videos I've seen in a long time. Just some random dude sharing his passion driven story. I like how you calmly tell your story, but it's no secret that this must've been one of your happiest days. Cheers mate, Morton surely is a great inspiration.

Great video, im happy to have found it and watched it in 2024, while searching for fan videos of Lachlan's ride around Australia's perimeter. Its quite a treat to have such a likeable cyclist in the profession, doing incredible rides, accomplishing record times, staying humble, raising money for charities, staying competitive in MTB and gravel races, and encouraging love for the sport. Im incredibly thankful for all of his efforts. I was incredibly happy for him and all his fans with his unbound gravel 2024 victory. Vloggers were often tefering to Lachlan as the people's champion, and i think it fits. I think he'll have a long lasting legacy as one of cycling's very best ambassadors. Cheers, may you have many many great rides yourself ☮️

Thanks for your comments- I agree with everything you have said! And best of luck to Lachlan on his latest- and toughest - ride!

Nice vid. I would be blown away too to see Lachlan on a trail/road. So cool that EF organization promotes alternative competitive cycling programs that allow Lachlan to ride these endurance events.

[@spaddon]

It is- it is also great that Lachlan has just extended his contract with them, and that he won Unbound. He has still got it!

Hey Simon! are you looking for a video editor for high-quality edits? let me know, if you’re interested.

[@marklepine1]

I hate to be "that" guy but it's generally pronounced 'lock-lan'. Otherwise I fully admire, and somewhat share in, your midlife crises. Enjoyed.

[@spaddon]

Thanks- I don’t think my accent helps with the pronunciation either!

Bit stalkerish.....

[@spaddon]

...just as a good fan should be!

Not at all! Good job finding your “hero” on the course!
