Actually I like Matt's story telling better than the bus itself ;-)

[@paulb8587]

I saw this bus at the Tour of Britain, parked on a narrow road in Cumbria and watched as the driver turned it around. When the front wheels turned to the left the rear wheels turned to the right and the but pivoted in just about its own length!

[@beatroot09]

Let the course be with you ...

[@angusrevis1486]

I Love Star Wars

[@miguel_montenegro]

How can I dislike it? Wow! People of Team Sky thinks in absolutely every detail

[@ndagijimana]

Maaaan.. they have every thing they need...Go win TEAM | SKY. Thanks for sharing this

[@netfischer]

"Get the wookie off the bus!" Just kidding matt, love the hair! ;D

[@mrdavecee7248]

I'm new to GCN but I already love this guy! Great tour bus too.

[@vladimirstojanovic2274]

Matt, you helped me to reach the second part for my job interview! Just because I immediately remembered your "frosted - unfrosted" sentence. Thanks again!!!!

[@martynallen5402]

Very informative. Never knew how much went into the team behind the scenes. Excellent tube.

[@mmahgoub]

When a cycling team is more equipped than my government

[@lambertlambert7076]

I'm curious to know what is your country ?

[@lambertlambert7076]

@Claudia Vlahović .What does mean a square " 👍" ? Please use human language.

[@5PercentTint]

the year is now 2020 and we are not equipped

[@HollywoodGreenFresh]

@@lambertlambert7076 please use a better technology, squares means your device can't understand it

[@lambertlambert7076]

@@HollywoodGreenFresh I know but I don't like the idea, that we are push to consume new phones, new cars, and many others stuffs. With their updates, they change your phone in good condition into an out of use device.

[@martijnwho6476]

Thanks for sharing, always happy to see new video's of gcn popping up :)

[@scon2006]

Brilliant video, thank you guys, bit of fun whats needed in cycling, cheers.....

[@SlowBoyAthlete]

I can't believe no one has commented this yet in tribute to Eddie Izzard... at 2:15, look everyone, it's Mr Stephens, head of catering, in the Death Star canteen!

[@josepedrogoncalvesdossanto5210]

Seriously who would dislike a gcn vídeo? If you love cycling, you will not dislike anything about gcn, If you don't like, just don't watch!!!

[@plumster33]

José Pedro Gonçalves dos Santos may of been the star wars refrences that done that

[@KandiKlover]

+plumster33 matt had the voice for it though lol

[@AZWMKWofficialstarNinjaGeneral]

wow that is the coolest team bus ever

[@Jellymonster]

"For their podium moments" LOL

[@daveobrien4112]

Been enjoying the team bus reviews. Are they all similar in length? I would expect a bus with 3 axles to be around 14m. Keep the reviews coming guys.

[@alexbenfield5917]

Love this channel!

[@sisaktamas]

Jeeez, a few years ago I had to look into ordering some glass that can go from transparent to matte with the click of a button, and it's REALLY expensive. Like 1000 euro/sqm of glass. Normal clear glass is 30 euro/sqm (in this part of Europe at least). They clearly didn't spare any expenses for this bus.

[@Hatsunex3]

my god his sound effects are really good

[@leedorney]

Yet another Matt classic - wonder if Danny 'boy' Lloyd is plotting a revenge video ;) lol

[@MD-et3hf]

As someone who sat in froome's chair, i think this is pretty cool to see whats more

[@skimckay]

Well designed!

[@cousinbebop]

Such an interesting video, thank you.

[@barbellking3755]

I love these guys

[@irishwristwatch7544]

Please ask Team sky, and make another Video about their Bus now on the Giro d italia :)

[@fcknzs7640]

"These aren't the droids, I'm looking for." Love it😂

[@KrishanUdvadia]

Why would anyone dislike this video?

[@romiarkan450]

cos they can't get one of those

[@pl4free]

Cause they don't like Sky!!! pretty hard to like with the prices they charge, or the owners they have :P

[@jacksquat2067]

Nice to see Matt's inner geek shining through. :)

[@mrliquiman]

Although matt looks old his behaviour is still quite childish.

[@netfischer]

If thats supposed to be a compliment I agree!

[@720Kasper]

Matt is a f*cking legend!

[@bipedalame]

Where's the dodgy prescription drawer?

[@topherpie]

bipedalame toilet

[@paddyhector1505]

XD

[@vinm300]

It's in the drawer marked "Inhalers"

[@paddyhector1505]

Under the seats

[@accg1991]

5:22 - Nice to see that they use Assos' Chamois Cream over Rapha's ;)

[@KevinRamirez-jq6hz]

We need answers Sky!

[@drewbuffington]

I need some of that peppery halabanero

[@class170rocks9]

Epic bus!!

[@deathcreeper1872]

[@TheIPzTuNeZ]

[@hookedonafeeling100]

[@charlieturnbull9968]

[@EvilBambo0]

[@pascal_weber]

Matt sure likes star wars!

[@angusrevis1486]

[@johntechwriter]

About the Star Wars allegory: A great idea but forget it!

[@AndreLai97]

Love the sound effects :D

[@jubycastro339]

[@owenprocter3664]

[@cyclingdays766]

[@ollybell9765]

Loved this video! Matt you're so funny!

[@maxstellinga4509]

star wars and gcn thats epic

[@TheWaxChainFanClub]

If only one if those chairs was a barber's chair.

[@1970pizza]

I wonder what it would cost to run the whole of Sky Team for a year .... it most be massive .

[@jonatanengdahl1716]

if i'm not misstaken team sky have a budget of 35million € this year. so yeah it is massive

[@1970pizza]

Thank-you for your reply Jonatan , 35million is massive , thats got to be the biggest budget to run a team on the pro circuit

[@laurieryoung]

It's about 3m more than the team with the next largest budget, and about 7m more than BMC. The Sky wage bill is actually bigger than many teams have to run their entire operation, but obviously that's what is now needed in order to all but guarantee the yellow jersey.

[@1970pizza]

I thought BMC were the next biggest team to SKY , I have'nt cycled in a few years since I wrecked my knee , God i'm so out of touch with the pro cycling

[@Gixer750pilot]

It's a Dyson vacuum cleaner!!! Not a Hoover! You should have known that Matt being such a geeky nerd!

[@hheintze1]

Hoover is the generic term in england.

[@Gixer750pilot]

I know that! Being from the Uk. But thanks.

[@MrJacobthegreat]

Was that an xbox at the bottom of the cupboard at the back of the bus?

[@MrStevenb1990]

It was a pc (used to drive the screen on the wall), a very shoddily connected one as you can see the cables running down the side of the table.

[@TomFord17]

Steven Bardsley It's a printer actually mate
