What seems to be missing gives me great joy. The last time the items in question were present, the bus was stopped and raided by the French police. In ... 1998, if memory serves?
I watch this and global triathlon network and the running channel. This one is by far the best in my opinion. Gtn try and pack in too much and as a runner only I'm sad to say the running one has gone boring. As I am giving my view I think gtn needs to get a few different presenters. I won't be unkind to say which here. I wonder do channels ever do market research to see what the viewer like and dislike or is it gone like the world where you dare not have an opinion but just accept what you are told and are given.
@@wideawake914 I'm not even as much of a road biker as I am a bunch of other things. But the goofy GCN crew keeps me returning to this rather than things I know more and care more about (running, skiing, MTB).
Imagine a tour of the US Postal team bus. Here´s the fridge, with all the bloodbags, induvidually marked with the riders names - and here´s all the EPO they´ll be using for the uocoming race .... :D
Jumbo wont let anyone inside their bus. The prefer to keep it clean and private for the riders. There was a Flobikes clip from Giro 2019 where they spoke to the busdriver and he said nobody is alowed into the bus. Maybe nobody should Sektion their fridge full of ketones
Great back-stage video, but I can't help to compare Ollie with my 2y.o. in the way she also goes around the house opening every single drawer and cabinet
Imagine comparing the amenities of the 1924 TDF with no team cars, no multi-speed derailers, tough guys with tubular tires wrapped around their neck and climbing mountain passes with gravel roads and only two gears which you had to stop and change on your own.
In 1964 the winning team did not have a multi Million Dollar Bus at their disposal, they had a 64 Chevy Station Wagon, and some nights they slept in it. The Tour De France represents a lot of $$$$ these days.
The shower thing is a bit strange because there is no where private to dry yourself. And they must have another bus for all the mechanics and other staff.
The mechanics normally have a semi truck, and there are 3-4 team cars (2 in the race convoy, and a couple more for the soigneurs to go from feed zone to feed zone.
Ollie, Great video. Question on tour bikes. Out of the last 20 years of TDF winners, which winner won thw tour on the cheapest bike? Or rephrased, Cheapest bike to ever win the tour? Last 20 years of course.
If there is cold, windy or both, having wet hair while talking to the press, might not be a good thing, as just a little snifl could lose them a few %.
Amazing bus, now I have a dream to buy my own Tour Bus, that could not be expensive, e.g. like volkswagen t4 and rebuild inside it into 1-cyclist trip car, everything I need for a solo trips... my wife would kill me.
My 6 year old girl ran into the room and instantly demanded that I give up my job and "just go pro"...all so we can have a cold drink and a chocolate fridge.
What do you think is missing from the UAE Team Emirates bus? 🚐
A great vehicle for self-sufficient cycling holidays :-)

Small CO2 footprint.
Tadej 😊
Sauna
GCN Cribz should be a mini series where we get to see all the team buses. Love how excited Ollie is about rooting through all the gubbins
Hahahaha where should we send him next? 👀
Need to do Bus Tours, A Day in the Life of... Supper Time on the Road, favorite Movies OTR, etc. 🖖😄
"this is where the magic happens".... not sure if I want cribs vibez!
This was the main staple of the early GCN videos
Don't forget ti hit the continental team buses as well.
GCN back in the glory days. Would love to see an updated Ineos one. Really enjoyed Matt's deathstar take on it.
Every day is a glory day here at GCN! Great to hear that you've been a fan since day one 🙌 If sky had a Death Star... What would that make UAE?
@@gcn No idea, I’m not a Star Wars fan myself. Yes I agree that the GCN glory days are still here; especially with GCN+.
Matt would have loved this one. It is at the Giro and has hairdryers.
@@gcnMillennium Falcon sprang to mind when I read this 😊
The best part of this video is Ollie spending thirty seconds explaining how a printer is useful for......printing things.
I wish they had this during Armstrongs US Postal days. “And here we have the.. oh this looks like bloodbags? 😮”
Oh pal, you would be surprised lmao.....
@@goncalomartins2421 Explain (and substantiate).
Everyone on U.S. Postal had their own Pez dispenser, but candy not what was being served up.
I love Ollie's enthusiasm as he pokes through other people's stuff. I'd love to watch him give a tour of my house, cabinets, and drawers.
😂😂 true that

Imagine one of the UAE riders being asked in an interview who their shower partner is xD
Imagine Ollies face when he finds out that e.g. after a soccer match there are like 11 guys in the shower at once

Ollie is such a good presenter. Love the nerdy humor as well. Nice to see a team bus tour. Jumbo's bus next ?

@Vincent Krause Look at Gcn auf deutsch, they have an Episode with the bus
Don't worry Ollie, that bus is better than most people's homes
It's dreamy 😍
Can you bring the "most people's homes" on a tour race?? Hahaha
It's great that you brought back the bus reviews!
Love a bus tour. More please.
Great back-stage video, but I can't help to compare Ollie with my 2y.o. in the way she also goes around the house opening every single drawer and cabinet
Especially enjoyed the explanation of what the printer does.
Bring back the good old videos, bus tour, service course tour.. 😍😍
Ollie is one of the best presenters. Love the content. Very engaging. Like others have said - more cycle bus/van/cave tours by Ollie!
FINALLY! GCN doing bus tours again.
Love seeing Ollie in all his "kid in a candy store" moments!! Great video.
love the way Ollie slips in as many GCN plugs as possible.....
Love you too, Ollie, and thanks for the tour of UAE's bus!
OMG a bus tour ... aah memories of Lastie stealing every cap not nailed down & blagging a cheeky expresso
GCN behind the scnes is always cool
Thanks always love to see behind the scenes stories/buses etc.
Tadej’s hair out of his helmet is an additional 80W!
It makes him more hair-o.
Finally bus tours are back 😍😍😍 delighted to see ye sent the best man for the job 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
As someone whose love of machines got me into cycling, I love the Donut Media references in the GCN Tech vids.
Hell yeah, bus tours are back!!!!
Gotta love the Orange Fanta sighting. Can't beat that after a long, hot day in the saddle.
Love Ollie's enthusiasm, that's it, nothing else to say :) 😍😍
very interesting ...thank you
Very very cool bus
Isn’t it ironic that Ollie is talking about Pogacars trademark hair whilst he has a hair standing up himself 🤣
The Bus is Great. It figures UAE would have a nice one. Oil Money $$$$.. Love the Chocolate Fridge.
thanks for the tour😊
Can't wait to see a segment on "special cycling clothing cleaning stuff".✌️😁
A bus tour, finally 😁
#BRINGBACKBUSTOURS we need more of that especially with ollies excitment
I love the bus stuff.
Nice Baz Luhrman speech reference. @7:06
Ollie:"love you, byeee"🥺🤣
Great vid Ollie.. be awesome to follow a rider through full day 🏅👍🚴🏼♂️🤩🚴
That is one plush bus !
3:35 Cycle team needs way to pop to shop/nip through traffic... Uses scooter 👌
"If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it"
I see what you did there. Great reference!
Cornelius Would Be Proud.🙌🏻
Its such videos why i subscribed to this channel 😅😂❤
Only thing I have to say is … tv could be bigger!! 🤣 this ride is seriously pumped out :)
Interesting😂 thank you❤
Glad you enjoyed!
Its better than my dream house. 😀
Que grande Mcnulty❤😅🎉

Hello. You mentioned that bus has 500 hp. It is 374 kW. How heavy is the bus? I wanna now W/kg ratio!
We'll run the maths 😂
A loaded charter bus is approximately 20 tons (40,000 lbs -> 18,143kg). I assume this bus would fall into the same range. So, about 20.6 W/kg.
Really cool video Ollie but I did find it funny that you needed to explain why they might need a hair dryer 😂
Im basically a prorider then, at least my diet with chocolate, coffee and sweets seem identical
nice
8:38
Maybe the shower seat is for showering when the bus is moving?
2:58 Is that the cooler where they keep the blood bags? 😵💫
This guy obviously never played football where you just shower with your whole team😂
yay, sportswashing!!
Scooters are for getting soigneurs to and from finish line as the bus is not always as close as you’d think.
Ollie,
Great video.
Question on tour bikes.
Out of the last 20 years of TDF winners, which winner won thw tour on the cheapest bike?
Or rephrased,
Cheapest bike to ever win the tour?
Last 20 years of course.
I wonder when is GCN getting their own bus? I am sure Nigel Mitchell will have some input on the food in that future GCN bus :)
wow. a printer!
It could have been funny to do this visit in the US Postal Bus 😅
2:30sh - "like a space shuttle". With a NASA bungie?
“ in this drawer we have Jay Vine’s nickers”!
I’m guessing the shower seat might also be used when a rider needs medical attention after the race?
If you have gang showers to begin with, what difference do a couple of clear bits make?
It has a chocolate cabinet ❤️. I‘m sold, where can I sign UAE? 🙃
If there is cold, windy or both, having wet hair while talking to the press, might not be a good thing, as just a little snifl could lose them a few %.
Ollie a bit too concerned about tiny clear bits in the showers 😂
tmi Ollie.
Hey it is a concern indeed!
British are notoriously prude after all...
Onde esta frigorífico com liquido vermelho? 😅
Can we bring back the Pro snack question and other interviews
Loved this I,ve wanted to buy a coach to live in 👍
Amazing bus, now I have a dream to buy my own Tour Bus, that could not be expensive, e.g. like volkswagen t4 and rebuild inside it into 1-cyclist trip car, everything I need for a solo trips... my wife would kill me.
Does the team doctor ride and work from the bus as well? Or do they not have a dedicated doctor traveling with them?
The bathroom is really weird! I do agree that isn’t private shower.
Donut fan!
Love it when Ollie said the bus is better than his house l, hmm what his wife going to think lol 😂😂😂😂😂
Ollie is married to the sport we're afraid 😂
What are "horsepewers"?
The fridges looks like a fridge in a students flat, except the beer.
Interesting to see, that they eat and drink lots and lots of sugar.
You can pimp up a bus as much as you like, but at the end of the day, you are still sitting on a bus.
So? What's wrong with that?
Is it just me or did the image keep warping?
If they're showering in pairs then privacy isn't going to be an issue. lol.
Who are you? Baz Luhrmann.
Ollie is a very (knowledgeable) old man, trapped in a young body … quoting weird old song lyrics now 😂😂 … wear sunscreen 😂
My 6 year old girl ran into the room and instantly demanded that I give up my job and "just go pro"...all so we can have a cold drink and a chocolate fridge.
Did they have to wheel out the epo infusion station before the tour?
500HP for such a big bus with all that equipment doesn't seem like much. I guess it is low end torque that matters.
Nicer then my house
The real stuff is placed in the space between the ceiling! Unfortunately, you have withheld this from us...
The "flavored" coffee offerings sounded revolting.
Lol the hooks for blood bags 😂
The reason they have hair dryers is so riders can dry their hair. Who knew?!
Damn wish me and pogi would shower together after a stage
Do professional riders really drink that many soft drinks?
Yes
No beer?
Just let the Video shake a little bit. The warp stabalizer is horrible adjusted. :/
