Great video. This is why it's so important to have road racing in the UK. massive Kudos to all sponsors especially CAMS, volunteers and the hard a$$ racers! The future Kopecky's and MVDP's.

The thing with this Free bottle in the race,most people don’t know what is in it and I don’t know what is in it . So they don’t take it and when they do ALEX is crap at passing it to them 🤷♂️😂🤣🇬🇧💪🏻 good video all the same 😊

Thanks, NOW I know how the gels are attached to the bottels (before they get ripped off and thrown away...)

The ladies are *SO* polite! A "thank-you" every time. It was great fun to see this side of cycling. And wow, all cyclists (and bikes) were extremely muddy

Have done a couple of years handing up bottles at the ECCA 12 hour TT. Soon learnt the best method was to run alongside and hand up bottles 100 metre relay style. Finished the day more knackered than any bike race I've ever done

When you said it's Mucky, did not realise you meant MUCKY !!! Good to see some local lads from Otley there. Well done Alex.

Man, it does take skills and practice to grab a bottle kudos supporting the rider.

Great to meet you at the finish line and hand out some prizes (pork pie man), if you make it over for mens race I can gift you a bag of goodies. Melton Mowbray pork pie = performance gain.

Looks like those who dropped bottles didn’t wear gloves. Might be something to think about when racing in the wet
@shiftysand34308 ай бұрын
I managed to get one without gloves. It's just making sure that you bring your hand back with the bottle
