I Raced the 2024 Olympic Peloton... sort of

On the evening before the Men's Olympic Road Race, I took the overnight ferry to Dieppe so that I could ride to Paris and watch Remco Evenepoel and the pro peloton race for gold in the Olympics.
Could I make it in time?

Cheers, I enjoyed that. You have got the right attitude, go with the flow. Two things about your ride I can relate with. First I was at the 1984 men's and women's Olympic road races in LA. And secondly, I was at the final of the Tour de France in 1989, in Paris when Greg Lemond won. So thanks for the memories, and I wish you all the best on your future adventures.

Thanks Gary, watching the Tour de France is definitely on my bucket list.
Any plans on going back to LA for the 2028 Olympics?

​@@AdamRussellCyclingNo, not at the moment. Back then I was living in California, so it was the race was close by. Take care.

28:57 ah, that reminds me of the days I cycle commuted through the winter, road spray glinting in the front light

There's something quite beautiful about cycling in the dark in the rain, not that I thought that at the time, mind!

36:58 about 80 miles-per-Mc'D then, not bad going! That was a heck of a mission, well done and thanks for posting the vid.

Thanks for watching, this ride could have definitely been sponsored by McDonald's 😅
