    The producers were very clever on this one. Notice that they made 3 of them really go for it to add a competitive element to the video. The rest of the presenters kinda went for it but they were balanced in their approach, taking rest days and tending to their lives, sometimes wanting to go out but then never did. Manon was on holiday and never cycled the whole time. They are trying to promote a healthy relationship to cycling, rather the becoming obsessed, cycling when you should be resting, neglecting other elements of your life, not allowing yourself a break, they are promoting that is okay to rest, it is normal to sometimes not go out on the bike when you feel you should, it is good not to cycle for an entire week when you're on holiday. It helped to make me feel less guilty when I miss a day riding. Good work GCN.

So many times, we get jealous of the presenters going on these epic rides around the world but on a day to day basis, they have to deal with the same stuff we do. We have family commitments to juggle, sometimes we just don’t feel like going out. Thanks for this video guys 💜

    This has really been motivating insight. I try to ride at least 3 times a week totalling over 100kms per week sometimes more and sometimes less. It’s hard to fit it in for a number of reasons most of which were covered in the video. It’s really good to know you guys all suffer the same challenges and are not as superhuman as I thought you might have been. It’s great to find the time to ride but sometimes it’s just not possible, still a year on and I’m hooked so thanks for the frank and honest report. Has made me feel so much better about my effort.

    I am currently part of a yearly "31 Days of July" challenge where you have to ride for an hour every day of July - outdoors - rain of shine. Between the wet July we've had interspersed by some rather intense heat, it's been a challenge this year. Completely the challenge earns a $100 USD gift certificate at the hosting bike shop.
