Inside Team Lotto-Dstny’s Bus

A home for the pre-race briefings, and a safe haven to relax after a hard day on the saddle, the team bus often represents the inner sanctum for a pro rider. Conor has managed to sneak aboard the Lotto-Dstny pro team bus... find out what's inside, and if he can discover their secret beer stash!

[@gcn]

It's great having access to team buses! We love nothing more than a good old snoop around! 🕵

[@lemeneid]

For a moment there, I was hoping that Lotto staff at the end pulled up the door to reveal crates of beer.

[@gcn]

Conor would have loved that 🤣

It's a brave team that lets Conor check their food areas wearing a jacket like that. Hope they checked his pockets on the way out. 🤣

It's been such a long time since the last bus tour. Love them.

[@ramsden35]

I love their bikes.

[@gcn]

Which Orbea is your favourite?

[@ramsden35]

Well all their team bikes, but my favourite all time Orbea was the first ever road bike I got 22 years ago, Orbea Enol. Only an entry level bike but it’s what got me hooked. And then after a 15 year lay off I came back and still think about that bike haha

[@cb6866]

Thanks Conor and crew...I have a clothing question for Conor , what size jackets do you get ? I just got an Agu rain jacket , 3X and it fits ....snugly ? I am only 6 one , but 185 lbs ...??

[@treyquattro]

do I care about a team bus? Not really, but Conor's great so I watch...

That's the beauty of GCN, we can make everything interesting 🙌 What would you like to see Conor do next?

My favourite Bus Tour ever !!

[@gcn]

Awesome! What was it about this bus that you loved so much?

[@PCXMODSGR]

The gap Mat left for tour buses i think cant be filled ! I am commenting before seeing the video ! After seeing, it, i think the midget giraffe did a good job !

[@gcn]

Never judge a video before watching it 😉

[@PCXMODSGR]

That doesn't mean he is filling the gap, i said he did a good job ! Ollie, for example ...he shouldn't go again !

[@danelojek915]

Nice work, just wondering if you guys will be re-updating the team bus tours this year for the rest of the teams?

Spotted a defibrillator 😮

[@chrisridesbicycles]

Pretty functional. Was it bottle cages to hold the shampoo bottles? How do the riders dry up after a shower? I guess its too wet inside but outside you will make everything wet when you come out.

[@gcn]

Good spot on the bottle holder 🙌 Any other teams buses we should snoop around? 🕵

[@matthewnormand2041]

Cool bus but did it have a good selection of yogurt like Astana?

Maybe we need to send Conor back to do a yogurt test?

[@illumeo]

Very good Conor but you did not tell us anything about what yogurts were available!

[@gcn]

Conor ate them before the camera's were rolling!

[@6ft8incyclist]

Love the Team bus Video's. I like that Conor does them as a fellow 6ft8in Cyclist I always wondered how I would fit on one of the buses, THANK YOU Conor for answering that question. I liked the GCN Jacket that Conor was wearing BUT I see that it is short in the sleeves. I will have to pass on it.

[@perwiratempur]

I missed these bus tours from GCN with Matt Stephens!

[@tr4x1ymus]

some buses have a fridge right by the front glass on the right side, if i was stashing beer it would probably be there.

[@gcn]

top tip!

[@erich8258]

Good job Conor,but shouldn't this have an ad designation? It's not a coincidence that the video started with gels made by GCN's nutrition sponsor. I don't blame GCN for making that money, but like the Pirelli feature embedded in a behind the scenes race-tech video, it's clearly sponsored content.

[@fredhercmaricaubang1883]

The Lotto bus? Say, can you get any tips from them to win the Lotto? Just asking.

No tips we're afraid 🤣
