Matt and Simon have set themselves a challenge. How many bergs and cobbles can they tackle in the shortest amount of time in the Flemish Ardennes using the new Wahoo Elemnt Bolt as their navigator!

The new Elemnt Bolt from Wahoo was used to give the guys turn by turn directions thanks to a route plotted and provided by Dan Lloyd, the creator of this brutal blast out. Simon even added the strava KOM details to his unit, so that he could have a go at taking Niki Terpstra's record on the Oude Kwaremont for example.
Matt get's a cheeky lead over Simon after pushing on when he had a flat tyre. Luckily the Elemnt Bolt allowed Matt to check out where Simon was as the Elemnt has the functionality to see where another Elemnt user is, cool huh? Oh, as well as receiving a text message on the screen from him!

Cyclists are known for their lean physiques. To some outsiders, they might appear "skinny" and "weak", and while we know that this isn’t the case, Dan & Si still tackle the debate head-on! In this week's show they dive into whether a cyclist's physique is truly the pinnacle of fitness ...or not!
If you were given £2,000 to buy any bike you want, what would you do? Here at GCN, we'd almost certainly go for a used bike.
Have we finally found the first carbon fibre monocoque UCI-banned superbike which can topple the time of a modern road bike? The Hotta has Tour de France Prologue Victories and Olympic Medals to its name and we've got not just one, but two of these very special machines to pit against a brand-new Canyon Aeroad. But there's a twist, one of the Hotta's is kitted out in full retro-guise, but the other, is a modern take, assembled with cutting-edge components to blend the two worlds into one. Could this create the ultimate mix of modern efficiency with old-school aerodynamic madness? There's only one way to find out!
Are you looking to improve your performance, mobility and endurance on the bike? Whilst we all love to be in the saddle, it's also important to do some work off the bike in the gym as well. Hank has teamed up with a personal trainer to show you some easy ways to build up your strength on the bike, off the bike.
