There is a certain quality that great actors have. It's not just acting talent, it's the unique quailty that makes you WANT to watch them on-screen. I guess it's what they call charisma. Matt is LOADED with it! It's just that likeability that comes through and makes you enjoy watching him, whatever he's doing. Great job Matt!! Who else would love to see him paired with Phil on Tour TV coverage?!
Enigma71559 He would be wasted with Phil. Matt is light years ahead and far more knowledgeable. He should stay on Eurosport where the best technical and tactical commentary is.
Re-watching the Cafe Rides and realising how many things we took for granted before COVID. What I wouldn't give to be able to sit in a cafe and chat to a friend right now..... 😥
Matt "Cafe rides series" are fantastic for the fans,keep up the good work Matt!Nice to know through this series and your interwiews some of the best cyclist in world tour.
How important is it to have our Dads in the scene ,Alas lost mine age 4 years but with pride Alex and others talk about there Dads,love the laughs thanks Sigma
More so, what I love about Matt is that he's a an every-man and a journeyman. I love it that he's been through the rough and the smooth - you respect folks like that. A natural. Matt, keep it real and keep smiling! Brilliant.
I did wonder how you were going to better or equal the first one with Charlie's dad but you have nailed it. Great episode, great guy and cracking format too. Well done to everyone involved.
Funny to hear Alex talk about his Dad, I always used to gravitate to chatting to his Dad on the club rides because I remembered him from watching BTCC and Endurance at Brands etc, he was a talent of his day. Alex always has time for the youngsters on the rides.
Excellent stuff. Great start to the day. Alex seems to be a really nice bloke and very understated on his achievements.With the rapport Matt has with Alberto Contador it would be great to see a café ride with the two of them at some stageLook forward to the next instalment and part two with Nick Craig
Excellent video and amusing to see Matt just about hanging on as Alex pedalled easily. Interesting brief talk about a 10 sprocket and there was a lovely 911 in the garage (Turbo or GT3?)
Alex is very humble he took part in a relay race with three teamamates that lasted over 24 hrs .... he accidently gave a teamate a helping push during the relay exchange..and knocked him over.. his teamates could not stop making fun of him and bring this up on various times they meet him. Those are the memories that last.
Another super video. Relaxed and familiar. Matt and Alex a great conversation pair and they compliment each other so well: Matt in cafe mode and Alex on the bike🤣
Great Vid Matt, content is becoming really good MSCN (Matt Stephens cycling network ) great work Cycling, coffee and chat what more could any cyclist want 🚴♂️👏👏👏
Watching Matt talk to people you realise what GCN are missing at the moment. With Emma leaving too it's leaving them a little depleted, the new guys are good, I love both Hank and Chris and of course Simon and Lloydy but they're missing the fun, goon that Matt is. How on earth am I going to find the time to watch both :-) Love the series Matt! Keep em coming and I agree you would be great on Tour replacing Chris Boardman with rider insigth ETC.
clips in with the same alacrity (or lack thereof) as Matt! This series is great. Matt's a great & fun presenter, and a nifty rider. Totally subbed due to Matt moving here. Only thing: they should have been on the right side of the road when riding in "Belgium" ;-)
Loved the chat. It gives you an incite into the great man. Dont the Yates brothers live in Andorra. Sounds like a cool place to live, cycle and Snowboard.

Matt should do a series called, "on a tandem with matt stephens". Im sure there will be lots of laughs
Dean Thompson They would never manage to clip in......ever 😁
I wouldn't want to be riding behind Matt though. I've heard some pretty damn funny noises from him on other videos - phew!!!!
There's also a series by the State Bicycle Co. called Riding Fixed Up Mountains, With Pros. Does what it says in the tin, also quite interesting.
Or 'clipping in' with matt stevens
Me thinks Matt was in a slightly higher training zone than Alex during this one.......
Alex has been off with an injury.
More of these please! This is one of the best series on TH-cam at the moment!
Cheers Gary, thanks for watching!
@@sigmasports We need the follow-up episode now Alex has moved to Andorra!
Love the scene where Alex world tour rider, ex hour record holder, giro stage winner was holding the camera for the Stephens fan shot. Both legends.
What a lovely chap, Alex is a fun guy too.
This is like Seinfeld’s “Comedians in Cars” but with Matt Stephens on bikes. Brilliant! ❤️
Matt and Alex chatting?? This is heaven right here. Wow I've been dreaming/wishing for this for months - thanks for listening! : )
Sigma Sports gives us the products we want and the TH-cam content we want.
Re-watching the Cafe Rides and realising how many things we took for granted before COVID. What I wouldn't give to be able to sit in a cafe and chat to a friend right now..... 😥
That was lovely! I've missed Matt on GCN and had no idea this existed. I'm looking forward to watching more!
Cheeers Kathy!
Matt Stephens is the perfect cafe mate!
Good to see Stephens still has trouble clipping in @ 0:52
Ah, my home roads.... Im often at the Egg and have met AD several times, always happy to chat, real nice man.
Matt Stephens at his best can't wait to see more of these.
More Matt vids please, the best cycling presenter ever
If Matt hadn't been a pro cyclist then I reckon he would have been the Ben Stiller of Hollywood !! Likes the camera !
I believe the feeling's mutual.
Two of my all time favourite riders. Matt is such a real character. If only the world had more Matt Stephens.
Matt "Cafe rides series" are fantastic for the fans,keep up the good work Matt!Nice to know through this series and your interwiews some of the best cyclist in world tour.
Alex always comes over as a decent guy. Hope the move helps him go onto even better things.
Those Essex roads though :-(
How important is it to have our Dads in the scene ,Alas lost mine age 4 years but with pride Alex and others talk about there Dads,love the laughs thanks Sigma
Films like this are a real treat well done Matt and Sigma sport
Alex, Channel, Matt and Meeeowbert. What's not to like! Great stuff Sigma
Cheers Derek!
Cafe Ride is now my favorite thing on TH-cam! Just please make them longer!
Matt, these videos are fantastic. Great unique insight
Thank you! 🙂
Keep these episodes coming. Get Matt on telly folks more! Brilliant style.
More so, what I love about Matt is that he's a an every-man and a journeyman. I love it that he's been through the rough and the smooth - you respect folks like that. A natural. Matt, keep it real and keep smiling! Brilliant.
Matt Stevens- could listen to him all day. Top man, so likeable and knowledgeable too.
This was a lovely interview format, so relaxed and friendly. But poor Matt, absolutely swinging! 😂
I did wonder how you were going to better or equal the first one with Charlie's dad but you have nailed it. Great episode, great guy and cracking format too. Well done to everyone involved.
Funny to hear Alex talk about his Dad, I always used to gravitate to chatting to his Dad on the club rides because I remembered him from watching BTCC and Endurance at Brands etc, he was a talent of his day. Alex always has time for the youngsters on the rides.
0:51 still can't clip in first time 😂 loving the series!
Superb thanks Sigma Sport. Loving the Christmas tunes.
Brilliant. What a relaxed guy Alex is. It cracked me up seeing him taking pics of Matt.
Still Christmas in Essex!! Great stuff from Matt once more 👍🚴♂️🚴♂️
This series is just great.
Still love GCN but missed Matt presenting, so really chuffed to have found this channel. The Guy is just such fun to watch, a real natural!
Excellent stuff. Great start to the day. Alex seems to be a really nice bloke and very understated on his achievements.With the rapport Matt has with Alberto Contador it would be great to see a café ride with the two of them at some stageLook forward to the next instalment and part two with Nick Craig
Just found this. Forgot how much I love hearing Matt talk cycling. How about a cafe' ride with Lachlan Morton?
I appreciated Matt’s enthusiasm for tea.
Yes! His Royal Thighness! Aka the cookie monster.
Brilliant. My favourite part was Matt smelling the tea 😂
What an exceptional odour 😂
I think that "aroma" might be the word you're looking for, Matt. :)
Great video Matt; more of these please 👍
Two-hour ride, two hours in the caff. Perfect! 😁
Totally agree. More of Matt, please 👌
Dowsett is absolutely rock solid on the bike. No movement
How have I not seen these vids before. They're brilliant. Will be gutted once I've watched them all. Please make some more
Thanks for watching Jeffrey, glad you have discovered The Cafe Ride. New episodes are coming in 2022. Stay tuned!
I want covid to stop so Matt can start producing these cafe rides video again.
Great video. What a humble nice guy Alex is 👍🏻
one of the nicest pro's out there , proper down to earth
Great to see you again. Really missed you on GCN
Excellent video and amusing to see Matt just about hanging on as Alex pedalled easily. Interesting brief talk about a 10 sprocket and there was a lovely 911 in the garage (Turbo or GT3?)
Great video guys. Never realised Alex was Phil Dowsett's son!...oh, and thanks for the tip on where to keep my extra inner tubes Alex! ;)
Alex is very humble he took part in a relay race with three teamamates that lasted over 24 hrs .... he accidently gave a teamate a helping push during the relay exchange..and knocked him over.. his teamates could not stop making fun of him and bring this up on various times they meet him. Those are the memories that last.
Matt you are very welcome to come to Andorra. Awesome coffee too. And over 50 pros you can meet up with whom to share anecdotes!
Two of my favourite cyclist's right there. Thank you Sigma.
Thanks for watching Stephen!
Excellent video. Really enjoyed it, interesting insight into life as a pro cyclist, more of the same please 😀
Matt and Alex in the same video; two of my favourite cycling personas! Hope you do a sequel :)

Excellent. Thanks guys,most enjoyable viewing
Cheers Felix!
Another brilliant episode......that distinctive tea odour.....love it
Amazing, that spin of mr Alex & mr Matt.. 😊🤙🏼

Really enjoyable, Matt. As others have said, it would be great to see more like this.
Another fantastic video, really loving this series
That was terrific.
12:14
That would pretty much be my reaction if I saw Matt walk into my house
Loved the chat. It gives you an incite into the great man. Dont the Yates brothers live in Andorra. Sounds like a cool place to live, cycle and Snowboard.
Nice to hear the Mud appreciation going on!
Riding with the illustrious Cookie Monster!
Brilliant !!!
watched this yesterday night and guess who won today‘s giro stage?!? 😃
Matt is funny bro. Would love to do a ride with him.
Talking about the importance of nutrition and then digging in THAT lunch :D
This is so good, make more video like this.
that was a very delightful chat!
This was amazing!!!
