Thanks mate appreciate it 👌 Great to see you on Saturday and a seriously good outing for your first E12 💪 Managed to get a little clip when you got off the front 🙌
Thanks Richard 👌 always worth trying even when the legs aren’t quite firing as you never know 🤷♂️ and it’s hard not to burn matches early doors with all the adrenaline 🤪😂
nice one GC, top work on these race vids and seeing how things develop in the pack - you gave it the berries, burnt so many matches and kept it real :) great stuff!
Loving the channel dude. Quick question, how are there E1/2 racers at the same time as your race? Why wouldn’t they start once the other race has finished?
For some of the mid week races in the uk they have 2 races on the course at the same time to be able to get all categories racing before it gets dark… weekend races they tend to separate races as they have more time… Also some of the wide circuits get 4 races going at once 😅
Great video 👍 those repeat efforts to bridge will be great training even if it they didn't pay off in terms of final position. That circuit looks brutal... Nowhere to hide! 😂 Will have to try it one day
Thanks mate 😃 yeah it’s all good training and good fun… I’m just loving racing at the moment and trying different tracks 👌 Definitely a tough one with some big surges but worth a go for sure!
Thanks and unfortunately they haven’t changed the rules but I contacted BC and they kindly gave me special dispensation to have the camera on my bike during certain races this year 👍
Well done G! Looked like you had a bit of a opposite race to me in terms of the first 15mins! 😲 I started hurting myself in the second 15minutes and didn’t realise you was hurting when I jumped on your wheel 🤣 I find being on the inside at the top of track helps for positioning, as that way you get on the right hand side straight after the s bends to go round the clubhouse corner on the inside and usually gain a few handlebars. Here’s the link to my video of the race, got some good clips of you 😃 th-cam.com/video/P1oaiCGn7ig/w-d-xo.html
Yeah It’s just how I race, start hard and hang on… gets boring sat in the wheels. You could literally do like 150w average if you sat in round there 😂 yeah you jumped on my wheel and I remember flicking my elbow and you didn’t come through thanks for leaving me out there 🤪😂 yeah definitely got to be on the inside and in the top 6 on that final corner… maybe next time, don’t think I’m racing there again this year so will have to remember for next year 😂
@@GiorgioCoppolaCycling my mistake. It is public..didn’t realise, but I’ve been there. Not to the cycle track. But the park adjacent just south of it… had no idea there was a track!!
Well done George dont be to hard on yourself. That looked a difficult track being so narrow. Once again Your ego gets the better of you buddy .Just because it looks good going over the start/ Finish line in first place halfway onto a race dont mean anything .Get a grip George dont be inpatient # Ride Smart and your be rewarded.
Thanks for sharing, at an old age I'm about to do my first race so this is insanely helpful, cheers mate and best of luck with your races
Thanks I hope your race goes well!
Brilliantly funny and honest analysis- well done 😄
Thanks you appreciate it 🙌
Supercool! I will test the circuit at least once....
Loving the honest commentary! Another great video, on board footage is so informative. Keep up the good work!
Thanks mate appreciate it 👌 Great to see you on Saturday and a seriously good outing for your first E12 💪 Managed to get a little clip when you got off the front 🙌
Likewise, great to see you. Hopefully get to race with you again soon, in the meantime looking forward to the video of MB!
Another great video. Even though you didn’t have the snap as you mention, you kept working it. Those first few matches burnt always get me!

Nice video! I thought it was against britsh cycling rules to have a canera on the bike tho? Did they change it?
Thanks and unfortunately they haven’t changed the rules but I contacted BC and they kindly gave me special dispensation to have the camera on my bike during certain races this year 👍
I went down and tried it, it’s a really nice track..I couldn’t imagine racing it as it’s so narrow !!
Yeah really nice… but super narrow for racing 😅
What bike do you have? Do some people race in affordable bike like specialized allez type?
I have a Cannondale supersix but there are a lot of different bikes used and as long as your bike is safe, you’re good to race 👌
Love the content! How did you manage to record, i thought BC didnt allow it?
Thanks appreciate it 😃 I have special dispensation from BC in certain races to have the camera on 👌
@@GiorgioCoppolaCycling ah thats great, would love to see more races from this pov. Also top commentry!
out of position = better workout
Normally it equals a rubbish result as well 👎😂
Very funny!

It’s a shame the circuit isn’t open to the public
Is it not? I assumed it was open to the public 🤷♂️ when I arrived people were on the circuit…

I race and train on it all the time. Get there early morning orlate at night. .If the circuit has not been booked - knick yourself out
