    You and the other Australian vloggers make the cycling scene down there looks so cool. It's so high-level, and really awesome how coordinated everyone is.

    Love this sort of riding. Difficult to do sometimes in the UK as the roads are so bad but love the concentration of following the wheel and big respect to the guy at the front putting the watts down.
