Rapha Gone Racing - The Alt Tour - Full Film

- "I'm not a superhuman. I think it's important to show that human element in sport, particularly in cycling, because you don't see it. You see the four hours of guys doing battle on the road, and the rest of what goes on is somewhat of a mystery."
Lachlan Morton set out to complete the Tour de France route fully self-supported. No transfers, no peloton, no team cars. Just a man on his bike with a mission to raise funds for World Bicycle Relief, beat the peloton back to Paris, and endure no matter how hard he was tested.
If you followed Lachlan's dot or simply want to watch someone take on a seemingly impossible challenge - then this is the film for you. Join us our friends at Rapha Gone Racing who will take you inside his incredible Alt Tour journey.

Choccy milk, coke and a Leffe. This is what top performance looks like. This man is a true pioneer.
And a pair of flip flops
"the beer's.....just for a slight buzz"
For a better version of yourself. Brilliant.
@@2darkdragon Right? He’s not even pretending. This guy is such a laugh to follow.
chocolate milk in the bidon, too
EF Cannondale might not win more races than other teams, but there they are the coolest team ever. Hands down.
Lachlan is like the beating heart of cycling. A totally zen dude who embodies the spirit of cycling. EF is brilliant for supporting him.
I've watched this film four times since it first aired. Never the same. Always re-edited. Alt-reality? No - just Alt Tour refined. Thank you EF and Rapha. Was a strange time when it first happened. Is a strange time now. Please keep up the positive and inspirational story-telling. Go Lachlan!
With every new alternative racing video I see another layer of Lachlan's personality, perseverance and passion for endurance sport and cycling. Loved watching the moment when his dad came to surprise him on the last stage to Paris. Incredible work by the team who has been organising, filming, financing and editing this. I still can't believe how this young bloke was able to ride 5,509km and 66,831 vertical meters over 18 days (most of it on sandals/flat pedals) self supported plus raising a whopping $500k for WBR. Thank you, Lachlan!
3 years later and this one is still awesome. Big fan of all the ALT adventures and the transparency Lachlan gives us casual viewers.
‘I’m not fussed about beating anyone anymore’ proceeds to beat the whole peloton.
By days
„You can film whatever you want.“ Lachlan is a class bloke. Wish the film crew was on his level.
You’re a fkn unit Bloke. Never ever change. Total inspiration.
Fantastic film. The ALT tour is the best thing about cycling right now and Lachy is leading the way! Chapeau!
Thank you EF Education for your support of these alternative cycling events! And thank you Lachlan for being an inspiration to just get on my damn bike and go for a ride. That’s never failed to make me feel better. I truly hope our paths cross someday somewhere.
I've watched the scene when his dad surprises him with a visit over and over. Never gets old. Lovely.
I totally agree. Makes me tear up a little.
You guys realize you could cut a three hour version of this and we'd pay to watch it, right?
dont give them ideas please
Dude, yes
With beers.
Dude shut up
Yes please. Not instead of this but as well. So the cheap f*cks who also replied are happy (if they ever are happy).
The only UA-cam vid I've ever set the bell for. I watch all of Lachlan's stuff. Not only is he an absolute beast on a bike but he seems to be the kindest, sweetest, humblest, most giving (keep going with words here but you get my drift) guy ever. Not only do we need more cyclists like Lachlan, we need more human beings. Bravo mate.
I'm so proud to have bought you a lousy lunch in an "esnaf lokantasi" in Istanbul a few years back Lachlan!! Great job!! Take care.
So good, what a great bloke. How does he not get grumpy and start swearing at times? What a good charity too. Thanks to the whole team for this film.
Its the sandals that made this video for me. What a good piece of work
Hands down the coolest pro rider out there. Love how he can be authentic and show his true self with these videos. Inspiring to say the least!
SANDELS TO PARIS! the beer chocolate milk coke combo killed me.. hilarious
Raised 500,000 pounds !! That is insane. Congratulations Lachlan and EF.
Too short. Honestly: I loved the film, I could have watched another hour or more.
Lachlan.........A TRUE INSPIRATION TO THE SPORT. Fantastic job here. Thank you.
I want to ride my bike now and it's a rest day as well. Go Lachlan, love your style, deffo an inspiration for people to just go and do stuff.
Been watching him since Thereabouts with his brother Gus. I don't follow too many races or other teams, but I could watch this forever. So thank you.
Brilliant idea with the flat pedals! Totally underrated anyways. But...SANDALS?!? 😂 Anywho, spectacular achievement once again!
I never tire (sorry) of watching this
'So I just bought the bike' 😂😂 Man, when genius meets determination👍
I love watching all of Lachlan’s videos. Such a cool laid back guy. He looks so young freshly shaved.
It is so inspirational. Getting more people on bikes is the yellow jersey. Like he said, for many people in the world bikes are a tool to get food, water, get to places. That’s how I started my relationships with bikes.
I am never not riding my bike again. :’)
Special moment when Dad show's up!! Awesome Adventure.
It was when dad joined you, I slipped a tear. Congrats on an awesome finish! Monster Legs! Let your feet get some rest now. 🔥🏆🙌🏼🤙🏼✌🏼❤️
Always look forward to the next adventure. What a wonderful achievement, well done 👌
Great champion 👏👏🇫🇷, and thanks you ,EF Cannondale.
There was some interesting stuff on IG that would have been nice to be included. I wish it was a little longer with more detail. It was awesome seeing Lachlan in his element! Most awesome rider in the pro ranks!
I agree. Was obviously a great watch but left feeling like there could have been more in there. Of course still super grateful to Rapha and Lachlan for bringing us this stuff.
I couldn't love this more! Thanks so much to the EF team for coming up with such a great idea - Lachlan + the Alt Tour is the most I've ever paid attention to pro cycling.
Such an inspiration. I want to ride right now
I love these videos. All the stuff you guys make is exceptional. Love following the pro team and all the alt stuff. Truly inspiring ride by Lachlan
One trip on the bike, one trip inside his head. That´s what long rides are all about and his was epic.
Biggest Thanx for this version of the TdF! Go, Lachlan, go!
Following along with Lachlan each day, doing some streetview searches of the locations, really gave me a better appreciation of the tour and the route.
I’ve been waiting for this and it was worth every second. Major props to everyone involved, and thank you
Best video on UA-cam . Lachlan you are the greatest inspiration!
Amazing! Congrats to all of you! Can´t wait for the Cape Epic edit. Hahaha
Beautiful, just beautiful!!!
Lachy is a legend. Amazing journey and determination!
Just amazing! I love the honesty and the chilled aussie outlook. Cried when his dad showed up 😭 Well done mate👏
Absolute legend. So proud to know this incredible human. Thank you team EF Education for allowing him to do what he does best ; inspire 🙏🏻😊❤️
Always inspirational to see and hear Lachlan! :)
A true ambassador for the sport and an inspiration.
Just watched the movie for the second time. The first time was a few weeks before, when the clip has had his premiere. Im gonna watch it a third and a fourth time. What an awesome inspiration!
A longer and more detailed version of the alt tour with some episodes would be great.
Really impressive! I hope you enjoyed Perros Guirrec, Trégastel, Trébeurden in Bretagne, one of the most beautiful cost in the world !
25:05 it is funny to see a Grand Bi !
Fantastically inspirational for this dot-watcher and rider, I just wish this had been longer.
I’ve been waiting for this video for a looooong time :)
This was good,very good. Loved every minute. The sandal thing...............I'm 65 and back on bikes doing 160 to 190 miles a week, after getting a new Ti Knee in 2015, then sorting out nerve/ankle/foot issues and going full time to flat pedals.
Nerve problem means no Calve muscles either..............doesn't seem to matter. I'm going better than I ever have, climbing stronger every month.
Some roadbikers have a hard time seeing my flat pedals and shoes, but they work great, the new stuff is nice.
These videos are so great. Lachlan is such a legend.
Dude you are an absolute inspiration ❤️. What a beautiful video.
What a LEGEND - how good is riding with your Dad on an epic trip - great work guys
Truly inspiring Lachlan and those sandals need to end up in some kind of cycling museum 😂
Nice one Lachlan, love what youre doing, keep em coming 👍
'i always thought i would have been a much better cyclist if i was in the thirties'. it does make you wonder who would be winning the tour if it were still the way it was back then. i don't think it would be the same guys that win today. bravo, lachlan. and thanks, EF.
Interesting dude....super fast but a regular guy. Gr8 job!!! Thank you!
Such a legendary performance from a legendary guy.
Lachlan is so cool. Id go on any ride with him.
I love this
Brilliant film and very inspiring! Fair play to him. Love that Cannondale it’s cool af
What an awesome guy! I want an autogram when I meet him in person! True role model and cwl and collected as one could imagine. Hut ab !!!
Can't wait for the clips from Cape Epic 🤩🤩🤩
Chocolate milk to go the distance, one beer for the buzz and a coke to even it all out - new fuelling strategy to be tested!
Incredibly based nutrition strategy right there
This is a great video about a really great human being. Thank you!
"If you're not a little bit anxious about it, you're not biting off enough, I think". Repeating this to myself this year ...
Lachlan is the current cycling spirit animal.
Great Ride - great inspiration - wonderful warm story-telling... Thank you
I cannot wait for the Cape Epic video!!!
Everyone’s favorite dot 💗 ride on Lachy
Epic & inspirational ride. Lachy, you are a legend mate 🤙
Does it not stress anyone else out how much his seat pack sways around?!
Yup it’s pretty cringy. He should have just went with a proper pannier rack but they are not “in” right now so…
thank you guys for making this possible!
