How Far Could We Ride In 24 Hours? | GCN's Winter Epic

Clock00:00, Sunday 17th November 2019

How far can you ride in 24 hours? What would happen if you decided to set off one day on your bike and just rode, not stopping until the clock ticks past the 24 hour mark... We didn't know. James is always up for a challenge and so along with BMC he managed to persuade ultra endurance cycling legend Mark Beaumont to give it a try. Could they make it to Scotland in less than 24 hours?

At the 2024 Giro d'Italia, Alex investigates whether the world's best riders are still favouring a super low and long bike setup, or if the trends are shifting towards some riders opting for a higher front end and more spacers. Is this for increased comfort, or is it a new approach to their riding position and aerodynamics? Join Alex to find out!
