GTN Take Over A Triathlon Shop | Will The Wheels Fall Off?

The GTN team take over a triathlon shop! Will the shop survive? Will they make a sale? We've always known that running a shop can be hard work but we weren't prepared for this! Watch as we try our hands at customer service, bike fitting and most importantly, coffee making.

How do you think the team got on? 🏪

[@ngdawgs1]

Best crew to run a shop!! All that experience.. would probably walk out with more than what I came in for 😎😎!

[@klewis2048]

I think we need a Heather coffee special episode

[@MrTigerlilly68]

Yes, like coffee with Heather; How to make the ultimate espresso 😊

[@MarwanRashad]

Marginal gains espresso

[@ngdawgs1]

Agree!

[@joshuah2291]

I'd work at the shop for a day for that gorgeous bike any day. Solid call 😂

[@DavidBiggins]

Fame at last, even if it's for less than a second! 🤣 Thank you so much Mark for convincing me to get Aerobars, and for your advice in choosing them. So far, so good!

[@codyevans1476]

Lol love the video, you three always make me smile.

[@llamallama2007]

How did this manage to feel like an episode of The Office (Ricky Gervais)?! Great video. Here's hoping that the bike builds hold together 😂

[@wojciechowczarz3914]

The "during credits" scene is one of the best acting I've seen in a while 🤣James, you are a natural! 😂

[@trisi1048]

This is an awesome shop with staff to match it! Highly recommended. Brilliant episode from the GTN crew who made it lighthearted and comical 👏

[@WaechterDerNacht]

The first thing that fascinates me already is that there are dedicated triathlon shops... xD

[@dri1811ya]

Was going to say the same thing... Could be a British thing

[@iggalan]

There are some as well in Barcelona. Makes it so much convenient to go to a shop that is focused on triathlon and not a generic sport store.

[@DigininjaRobin]

​@@dri1811yaWe have quite a few. There used to be a big brand called TriUK which had some huge stores but they got bought out and despite keeping the name became generic bike shops last time I looked. Our local one had an endless pool for testing wet suits and full bike fit area.

[@amys7199]

I wish there was one near me!!!

[@DigininjaRobin]

@@amys7199 could you use it as an excuse for a holiday?

[@tzey1]

oh Mark! saw that coming a mile off 😆

[@jlore6344]

OMG this is so good. The shoe incident is just brilliant, and what lucky customers that got to experience all of your training. Man, if I had walked in there though, Heather could have sold me literally anything in the shop so that might have been bad for me actually :)

[@krishnansrinivasan830]

Awesome & Fun :)

[@becmango]

The way you helped him pull up his sleeves has opened a whole new world for me 😂

[@SBoots29]

I would love to see a dedicated Tri shop in the city where I go to. To be served by talented GTN crew would be an honor.

[@ironman140.6]

You guys like the Three Stogesses - a hilarious show. More!!

[@thereal_jaimelopez]

This was good fun

[@juliogutierrez6367]

Upside down bottle cage? “Mum” is the word!

[@na-dk9vm]

Which brand wetsuits are most buoyant ???

[@356z]

Did Heather just pinky up drinking her water??? 😍

[@ngdawgs1]

Someone get Mark some oven mitts 🔥!

[@erikasantoshafitness348]

Hey. I can’t seem to be able to comment on the pregnancy video. Being an incredibly active mother of 3 and huge fan of your channel, I was super disappointed to not be able to share my experience with pelvic health and resistance training…😢

[@ketjuariittaa]

"can you cycle the inventory? can you swim on recites?

[@MrTigerlilly68]

I hope you didn't cut all forks on all bike frames so you can only slam the stems...😊

[@BlakeJames-yk2yz]

Considering how thin the margins are for bike-tri shops, one destroyed pair of shoes may set the shop off for a month! 🤣

[@macserda2044]

I love Heather (and all three hosts) and I love a good coffee, but it seemed uhhhm sexist to have the lone female on coffee duty.

[@colinmacguire]

Maybe it was because Heather is "the best" at making coffee? Best not to be a snowflake.

[@99cya]

heather, coffee, bit sexist??

[@notmyrealname6272]

Woman on coffee. 🙄

[@leighcarey7778]

Oh please🙄

[@MarwanRashad]

She seems like an espresso aficionado (aficionada?)

[@HollyDunnDesign]

At least they put Mark on the lunch run 😂

[@gethind-j2390]

Erm, yes… that’s a problematic optic.

[@Kieran0]

Just going to ignore the fact that Heather actually knows about coffee and spends a non-trivial amount of time talking someone through it. Women are allowed to know about coffee you know...
