i did
OK. Well let’s have everyone hop on the treadmill after all that and see how that goes😏
🤔 0:03 sounds like a different challenge all together. Like maybe a challenge to find out Who's the best triathlete once and for all
@@jeffreylines1535 That’s an easy one. Lucy Charles-Barclay and Scott Laidlaw😁
Didn't realize they worked for GTN...
@@PureNRG2Scott Laidlaw? 😭😭😭 measure twice cut once as they say
@@jamesze2363 oooops. Sam Laidlow.
Well done James Cu... Cunna... James from GTN for coming sixth, complete violation from Hank and Connor on the GCN corner from that 😂
We will be having words with them, don't worry
@@gtn i hope so, especially since you beat them as well... bit embarrassing for them
Conor giving smack at the beginning and getting beaten by James in every event and both James and Mark overall is just beautiful to behold. I'd be so embarrassed. Amazing from Ollie though! Well done GTN holding your own!
I’d be embarrassed to go for a run after a nice bike ride 😂
After watching the GCN version of this, Connor is just chilling, having a laugh, and commentating through the whole event. I dont think he was taking this seriously.
@@PixelVibe42it can actually be rather pleasant. My old training days I would bike 10km to my run session, do 20km or so on foot between warmup/down and the session with a group and then finish with a few more km bike to work on a Tuesday morning.
Oohhhh!!! I LOVE THIS!
Do more of these … GCN vs the GTN rockstar triathletes!! 💪🏼
What challenges would you like to see us take on? 🤔
Well done both of you 💪💪🙌🙌. Brutal challenge to compete GCN but you did great.
Very nice to see those Zwift challenge.
(I’m waiting for the video with the FTP test.)

James always gives his all… and then some. Great effort GTN… you’re still first place in my ❤
Great mix of competitors. Well done GTN
Awesome work GTN!
More of this please 🙏🏽
Congratulations to both! They need a fair revenge. I understand that swimming could just be too hard technically for the cyclist, but maybe you could replace it with some rowing or roll-skiing. It just needs to be something which levels the technical playing field but gives the tri-guys fair play for their upper-body swim strength which is a handicap in hill-cycling.
Mark.
You inspire me each day to be a better person. You being my force of inspiration I graduated in master of business administration. You are genuinely a legend 👏
Love you

So, the triathletes still managed to finish ahead of a number of GCN ex-pro cyclists. Respect! Was this done without socks?
Well done guys ✊🏻 James totally smashed it 💪🏻 Heather, you look great 😉 Mark just the best ✌🏻😄 GTN heroes
I can't believe I missed that Heather is now cycling for two!! Huge congratulations.
yeah, im getting zwift..thanks guys!
Well done James.👍🏻
Just proud of our gtn guys for doing this challenge 💪. Let's get em next time.
Hey where’s Blake and the dirt road gang?
Nice effort GTN!!
Thanks!
Good job Guys. Now lets get those GCN boys in the open water. You might want to get them a unicorn floaty so they have something to hug when they loose. LOL. Seriously all Participants knocked it out of the park. Congratulations to GCN.
🤔0:03
James did fantastic!!
Awesome effort. Definitely should have suggested a run after and see what they GCN boys would have thought. Plus, the whole team wasn't there. Heather might have suprised everyone!
James' dedication is serious 😝
Full send, always
before watching..., just want to say, that triathlon people are made of a different paste, but so are cyclists. So gl both. The suffering of these athletes is tremendous, riding the "donkey" (bike) for hours. Today I've watched Vingegaard and so on in person here(Pontevedra in Galicia) and they were competing under torrential rain for hours, literally and I am not exaggerating, and the day was windy too. I've seen them pass and they were flying even under those conditions. I can't help it but admire them; the cyclists, triathlon people, and some others, are made under a different mold. Go Vingo! And of course, Go Heather!
Who is the other James? Oh yeah, Hank.
Ive been getting some serious gains over Zwift. My avatar is max hight and 30-40lbs heavy and i use the 24/7 group rides The psychology of keeping the draft and not getting dropped is strong and if i do i simply teleport back, But when you get dropped thats where you really bump up your FTP average. Also we group ride slower in real life so it kinda matches real world conditions. I also mess with my Zwift FTP so that the graph 📈 on the screen is particular color for my target zone. At 40 can i become a world class athlete... maybe - i.Weld [24/7]
Oli ,an amateur winning ex pros
Zwift Running has to be included in these games too
Mark didn't look like he even broke a sweat?!? Did he leave his attack a little late?
No but you guys did a great job competing out of your wheelhouse
Challenge them to a zwift duathlon ;) Which are really bike run biathlons.
Go GCN crew!!!
Ok I think it’s time to offer Frodeno, Kinle, and Ryf GTN EU retiree Contracts to even up the numbers.
We don't want to show these cyclists up too much 👀
just make them run 2k and then ask how they are doing!?
Well, make sure you're subscribed for something coming soon!
I can help you beat them anytime 😊
Who at GCN would fare best at running and swimming…🤔
Si Alex and Dan are pretty quick runners. Connor likes to swim I think.
Only one way to find out 🤔
Great to see Ollie win. The only non-former professional in the GCN crew. The man is a hero.
Well done in a race with one trick ponies. Good you let them win, because, as we know, cyclists are big crybabies and they would be lamenting all year long. 😉😂
How many riders did GCN have to field to beat GTN?
Just saying….. 😂
Right!
I may be off course here BUT you are not riding! No pot holes or weather , no bike handling or traffic, none of the unexpected things like mechanicals or punctures. I don't equate this e version of cycling with my past riding experience. Not a criticism, just an observation. Any comments?
I would have loved to see GCN or GTN behind the names so you get the GCN vs. GTN feeling. While i recognize some names i don't recognize all.. Pretty bold assumption all that people that watch do and it takes away off the GCN vs. GTN experience. On a positive note, great effort guys!
Thanks for the feedback - we'll use this info to improve our future videos 👌
Hank losing to the GTN hahahaha
