    A little about Ed….
    Ed is an elite cyclist, 2019 British Hill Climb Champion and former Under 23 British RR Champion. He has raced as a Continental level Professional Rider for one of the most successful British cycling teams in Japan, Korea, Australia, Canada, Azerbaijan to name a few. He is also a public speaker, coach, and founded the on/offline cycling community, Backpedal. At the start of 2021, the Discord community began, and plonked many of Ed's viewers in to a 550+ strong group of people that had many things in common. Not least wanting to explore the world and pedal their bikes faster!
    Ed coaches lots of cyclists in the online community too! If you are interested, email [laverackcoaching@yahoo.com] for information on the 1-2-1 coaching package and training plans, of which there are many and flexible options to suit everyone!
    Ed now prioritises having fun with my hard earned fitness and knowledge in the sport. Showcasing that maybe there is an alternative to racing for teams when you can race for yourself and your community of followers and brands. This TH-cam channel is a docu-series highlighting what it’s like to be a cyclist in today’s competitive age of sport.

    Loving this series Ed, the editing and choice of music is outstanding. Never heard western music put to cycling, it works 👌

    I always thought videos like this would make me sad when I was recovering from my injury, but they actually just make me realise how I need to get myself sorted to get back to mountains like those. Keep up the strong riding and great content Ed!

      Sorry, late reply here! It was a great experience Alex, but when I edit these things I always try and strike the balance between storytelling, visuals and trying to light up your imagination rather than put it out.

    Really enjoyed that Ed. It's madness that you're able to strip 12 minutes off the KOM.
    I've yet to cycle in southern Europe but would love to one day. The roads look perfect, though the landscape is perhaps a bit arid. I like trees and lakes 😁
