It is always great to riders that retain their awareness of all those local legends that put in the work behind the scenes to keep the heart beating in places like Herne Hill.
Matt was born for stuff like this - love these videos. I live round there and cycle those roads so it was interesting to see the pre-cafe route didn't stitch together, either that or they went up and down Crystal Palace hill a few times before going to the Cafe 🙂. I will keep an eye out for Ethan now - didn't know I had an Ineos rider on my ride!
Matt is a gem. We had some weather-induced detours for this one unfortunately, it was that or getting the pair of them into a pair of trunks with snorkels! But yes, a slightly more cafe than ride focused episode!
Great addition to the Cafe Rides series. Glimpsing elite riders like Ethan "off duty" is always entertaining and informative. If you're doing requests - as it's Cross season - how about Puck Pieterse. Another World Champ and judging from her course preview videos she seems up for a laugh
Thanks Matt this was a top Cafe ride what a lovely bloke Ethan is not one word of a boast i bet his family are bursting with pride i would be... keep them coming there great videos Thanks Ethan.
Another cracking Cafe Ride. I look forward to these coming out. Matt always brings out the best in his subjects, with insight into the person behind the rider. Keep 'em coming. Thanks !!
Such a proper video for this time of year. Excellent job as always Matt. Ethan was a great choice. Had to chuckle @ 5:25 in as the chap on the e-bike showed you two who was who.
The 16th wonderful Cafe ride. Love the corrected "facts", Matt is the master f fake news though correcting the poster in the 4 Boroughs was hilarious. Thanks, Mate.
Lucky enough to see Steve Cummings talking about his new book last night in Heswall and when asked who reminds him of himself in the latest Ineos roster he said Ethan. Great video again Matt
Once again you pulled it out the bag. Great to have the Cafe Ride back. Just love how you don't take yourself seriously and getting caught passed then by the Deliveroo cyclist, just gold, you could have given him his moment of glory (tight ass). He's on the money with the Malted Wheat much better than Shreddeies. Also, your cutting-edge question, like what furniture do you have in your flat and Lego. Who the hell want to know what his gearing of choice is or is he Campag or Shimano or even Sram. My side are hurting from all your incorrect true facts about Christal Palace. Just Class! Keep it up great job. Tim
Love this..Matt is such good presenter. His laugh his hilarious and he's engaging. That deliveroo rider..could see him creeping up. Real nice guest as well!
ah mate -im 43 -got born and bred in Lewisham south london - got my license 3 years ago due to living in australia and 2 kids -BUT man -so good to be vindicated bu hearing Ethan say " no one learns to drive in london " Ive always maintained that (failed my only attempt aged 18 in downham
A great watch as ever. I'd like to see more from that crop of young riders with Pidcock and Ben Turner. Luke Rowe from the elder side of the peloton would be a great guest.
I guess back in the GCN days, they should have brought a wall for Matt to clip in at :-P Sorry, just came to mind watching that scene... Great episode once again! Really enjoy these and the variety of people and locations really keep the format fresh! Great work from the whole team!
oh, the joys of riding in Sarf East Lahnden - can't believe I've never ridden on the Herne Hill track, even though I lived around the corner - might have been because every time I left my bike anywhere it got nicked. Looked like they were doing laps around the park's perimeter
Another great one SS. Could do with one of these from Matt once a week. Ethan seems a nice lad with a great future ahead of him. Matts laugh is infectious and great to see he hasn't lost his skills of clipping in. Knowing Crystal Palace well I was a bit worried about the bikes but relieved when I saw them chained up. To clarify that its not just in CP but anywhere you leave a bike. Does Matt know CP is near Croydon or should that be Croyden 😉
We're glad you enjoy them. Ah sorry to hear that, you are always welcome to join one of our monthly store rides if you are near one of the Sigma Sports stores.
It sure is Philip. The Universal Colours Chroma Rain Jacket in Verdigris Green can be purchased here > www.sigmasports.com/item/Universal-Colours/Chroma-Rain-Jacket/S2JO
Great video from the master again. Ethan comes across as a real nice bloke. If ever I need a video full of historical facts, I'll remember to go elsewhere. 😂😂
This was a weird way for me to find out I live right next to Ethan Hayter, you guys rode past my house early in the video. I rode for Herne Hill Youth cycling team when Ethan and Fred were riding for VC velo. Now thinking about it I did see a quick guy riding through Crystal palace in Ineos kit.
Hi Hector, he is riding a Specialized S-Works Aethos. You can find out more here - www.sigmasports.com/item/Specialized/S-Works-Aethos-Dura-Ace-Di2-Disc-Road-Bike-2022/VXPA
I laughed so hard when Ethan admitted to preferring the off-brand cereal. Finally, a rider I can relate to
It is always great to riders that retain their awareness of all those local legends that put in the work behind the scenes to keep the heart beating in places like Herne Hill.
We couldn't agree more. It was really important for us, Matt and Ethan to visit Herne Hill
Love it that Matt still hasn’t mastered clipping in. Great video. So much fun to watch
Thanks for watching Gillian and for dropping us a message 😃
I think of Matt every time I struggle to clip in
One of the most exciting rider to watch, and Ethan Hayter.
We couldn't agree more. That coffee drinking prowess is worldtour level for sure
I like the fact that Matt also ask Ethan about The Yates Brother's school of positioning :))
Another entertaining Cafe Ride. Ethan was game. Whatever conversational turn you took he was off your wheel and ready to take a turn.
He's a champ for sure

Another great video. What a down to earth great chap ethan is. Matt ain't too bad either!
Glad you enjoyed it Ian and yes, what a pair eh!
Love these Cafe Ride vids
Thank you!

Thanks JRM for your feedback on the series and for your future guest suggestion!
Top notch stuff gents-thanks to all who put this video out there. Can’t believe we get it for free.
Our gift to you this festive season. We're glad you enjoyed it 🥳
Thanks Matt this was a top Cafe ride what a lovely bloke Ethan is not one word of a boast i bet his family are bursting with pride i would be... keep them coming there great videos Thanks Ethan.
Thanks David
A NEW CAFE RIDE!!!!!!!!!!! thanks sigma
Our pleasure, we hope you enjoy it 😊
Another cracking Cafe Ride. I look forward to these coming out. Matt always brings out the best in his subjects, with insight into the person behind the rider. Keep 'em coming. Thanks !!
Thanks Colin!
Great Video, really enjoyed it and what a trip down memory lane growing up in South London and racing 'the Palace' every Tuesday night..
Thanks Mike, it's a brilliant area for racing, that's for sure
Always good to see our pros outside their racing life - so glad I don`t have to ride in London!
Thanks Gordon and yes, was great to get an insight into life for Ethan outside of the peloton.
Such a proper video for this time of year. Excellent job as always Matt. Ethan was a great choice. Had to chuckle @ 5:25 in as the chap on the e-bike showed you two who was who.
We had a blast seeing out the year with Ethan!
Best video for a while. Entire thing was a pleasure to watch.
Matt and his clip "ins". LOVE IT!
Another excellent cafe ride with Matt. I love these!
Thanks Steve 🙌
The 16th wonderful Cafe ride. Love the corrected "facts", Matt is the master f fake news though correcting the poster in the 4 Boroughs was hilarious. Thanks, Mate.
Thanks Julian. We're pitching to get Matt on Mastermind with his fact knowledge
@@sigmasports Don't
What a fantastic, fun video. Ethan comes across as such a humble, grounded guy. Herne Hill looks mint too. Thanks so much for sharing this ❤
We're glad you enjoyed it Alan. We couldn't agree more, would highly recommend a visit to Herne Hill
Getting overtaken by the delivery rider and then overtaking him haha! Enjoying Matt's cafe rides from Singapore!
Lucky enough to see Steve Cummings talking about his new book last night in Heswall and when asked who reminds him of himself in the latest Ineos roster he said Ethan. Great video again Matt
We agree, Ethan's style is very akin to that of Steve. Both are quality riders indeed. Glad you enjoyed the video Phil.

Appreciate the kind words Jim. That Deliveroo rider was a demon on a bike, we had to get Matt a recovery drink after that effort 😥
Great to learn more about Ethan! Be great to see him win a grand tour one day!
We couldn't agree more 🤞
Another great video well done guys 👍
Thanks guys!
Humble, funny, insightful and generally brilliant as usual, well done all involved! Oh and put some sodding gloves on!
Thank you for your kind words Paul!
Love this..Matt is such good presenter. His laugh his hilarious and he's engaging. That deliveroo rider..could see him creeping up. Real nice guest as well!
Matt is a ⭐ Thanks for your feedback!
just amazing! love watching this series of matt
Thanks for your kind words. Stoked to hear you enjoyed it 🙂
feels to good to be on youtube, loved seeing this side of Ethan
Thanks Fergus!
ah mate -im 43 -got born and bred in Lewisham south london - got my license 3 years ago due to living in australia and 2 kids -BUT man -so good to be vindicated bu hearing Ethan say " no one learns to drive in london " Ive always maintained that (failed my only attempt aged 18 in downham

Some great suggestions there. Thanks Ethan!
Matt Stephens is a national treasure
He sure is!
@sigma sports National treasure, international star. Quality content enjoyed even here in the States
I guess back in the GCN days, they should have brought a wall for Matt to clip in at :-P
Sorry, just came to mind watching that scene...
Great episode once again! Really enjoy these and the variety of people and locations really keep the format fresh!
Great work from the whole team!
Thanks Philip. We are working on a Sigma Sports clip in and roll wall for 2023.
so funny when Mat gets everything wrong..he just cracks me up. great show.
Thanks Doug. Matt's factual slip ups were intentional for comic effect...we promise 😉
oh, the joys of riding in Sarf East Lahnden - can't believe I've never ridden on the Herne Hill track, even though I lived around the corner - might have been because every time I left my bike anywhere it got nicked. Looked like they were doing laps around the park's perimeter
also great music selection
Thanks, our production team pulled out all the stops for this one!
Loves the partly correct facts😂
The cafe rides are the best cycling content, very funny yet very informative….. most of the time😂😂😂
We'll make sure Matt focuses more on his fact prep next time. He tells us West London is more his specialist subject haha
@@sigmasports please don’t, it makes feel normal and so none is perfect and on screen corrections are funny.
Great video again. Can I suggest one with Maurice Burton a great guy and less known National Champion.
Thanks Nathan and great shout!
What a nice humble lad Ethan is. Such fantastic potential too. I'd put money on him as a future TdF winner 👍🚴👍🚴 great film.
Thanks Simon. We would too, the Maillot Jaune is calling in the next decade for this young man.
Awesome one. Thank god for fact checking. I want to go for a ride with Matt just for his laugh
We're looking to bottle his laugh for ride morale. Watch this space 👀
Matt, another great Cafe Ride.
Roll on the Christmas Special.
Thanks Marcus. Glad you enjoyed it!
Matt is such a great interviewer
Always a giggle!
Another great one SS. Could do with one of these from Matt once a week. Ethan seems a nice lad with a great future ahead of him.

A weekly Cafe Ride fix, now that sounds 👌 👀
A year late to this but spontaneously air punched at the reference to Malted Wheats. 100% agree v OG Shreddies.
What is the surface of the velodrome made of?
I always enjoy these cafe rides. Makes me want to get out and ride. Unfortunately I have no one to ride with😢
We're glad you enjoy them. Ah sorry to hear that, you are always welcome to join one of our monthly store rides if you are near one of the Sigma Sports stores.
What a pleasure
Another great cafe ride with Matt. Love to watch him clipping in sometimes just a bit shaky lol
Thank you. We have a lot of fun shooting this one.
@Sigma Sports you always do thats why we all can't wait till the next video.
Did you know Crystal palace had a cycling track like Herne hill too which was run by Anerley B.C .Anerley also rode in the first race at Herne hill.
We didn't. Thanks Mark, that is a very cool fact!
The dude on the e-bike, hysterical. :)
The delivery world champs is calling with that power 🚀
I dont why these dont get more likes! 1 in 43 views!
What happened to the Philippa York episode?
The deliveroo guy wanted his jacket back 😂
Great video matt who next chris froome 🙏
Chris, you game!?
Is Matt's Green Jacket available from Sigma Sports?
It sure is Philip. The Universal Colours Chroma Rain Jacket in Verdigris Green can be purchased here > www.sigmasports.com/item/Universal-Colours/Chroma-Rain-Jacket/S2JO
Great video from the master again. Ethan comes across as a real nice bloke. If ever I need a video full of historical facts, I'll remember to go elsewhere. 😂😂
Thanks Lee and yes, we are getting Matt a South London history book for Christmas 😂
One day I wanna have a mustache as colorful as Matt‘s 😍
5:30 - courier on background rides quicker than they
This was a weird way for me to find out I live right next to Ethan Hayter, you guys rode past my house early in the video. I rode for Herne Hill Youth cycling team when Ethan and Fred were riding for VC velo. Now thinking about it I did see a quick guy riding through Crystal palace in Ineos kit.
A very weird way indeed! A quick INEOS guy and a quick Deliveroo rider as well
I've been off my bike for 4 months after having a kid and damn this video makes me want to get out and roll around.
Enjoy getting back to it Chris! Glad we were able to provide some motivation💪
What bike is Matt riding?
Hi Hector, he is riding a Specialized S-Works Aethos. You can find out more here - www.sigmasports.com/item/Specialized/S-Works-Aethos-Dura-Ace-Di2-Disc-Road-Bike-2022/VXPA
"Undertaking" the Deliveroo rider!
Matt, what shoecovers are you wearing?
At a guess universal colours to match rest of his kit
He is wearing Universal Colours Mono Overshoes - www.sigmasports.com/item/Universal-Colours/Mono-Overshoes/UPX9
When is Matt coming to Toronto to do a cafe ride with me?
Get the kettle on!
Thought that was Joe Skipper giving it the big send doing deliveroo
🤣 so did we!
Couldn’t stop laughing when the bike courier passed them and their typical cyclist response.😂
Advantages to live close to a track and having parents with a few quid, but you also have to have the legs to go with it
Ethan Hayter??
Who's he?
That’s a cracking mustache. Looks like Matt should be flying a Spitfire instead of riding a bike.
LMFAO those fact checks on screen
Current TP world champ isnt he? Not former
Those mustaches.... no mate 😂
I've watched half a dozen of these this morning, does Matt pick lovely guys or are most pro cyclists just nice, genuine, modest chaps?
Well done Matt and Ethan. Great video. But Matt, the tache? Why? Not even Movember is worth that. Not in 4k. Think of us viewers 🤣🤣
Glad you enjoyed it Scott 👍
you have to do one with peter sagan once he retires, but instead of cafe ride go on a vodka ride with him😆
letraset Matt , ethan CANNOT know what that is !,,😂😂
Good to see you not letting that e bike rider mug you, very important
Matt do you ever ride in fine weather.
seems like a nice kid.
👍👍👍☕☕☕
Oh we do love a cafe!
I think Lance is more referring to if pogi is using drugs he drew attention yesterday…
you need beter mics
big thank you to the fact checker ....teaching history was not Matts calling...thankfully 👍😉
Our fact checker is worth their weight in gold, that's for sure 🤣
Professional riders overtaken by Deliveroo - selection criteria for Olympics now under review…
We think someone ordered a rapid ramen 🚀👀
Gaffa laugh
Remove that tache.....win the sprint
*🤣
Bro shave that mustache it looks like you drank some milk .
