    After watching a ton of LC's videos over the years I have to say you can almost always tell when there is proper company. Nothing against solo vids but it's obvious how much effect it does have on the experience and the video result when the group of people in it works and the passion returns for LC. Was true for the trips with Francis and James, is true now. Good to see/watch/know and happy for LC 👍

    What a bloody brilliant video. Loved the landscapes and the emotional ups and downs and good to see that Anna hasn’t lost her epic sense of humour. Truly missed in the pro peloton, but great to see such a fun and adventure filled life beyond road racing. Inspiring.

    That scenery is gorgeous. Some of the road surfaces looked deadly. Tom's solo ride needs a Director's cut - he must have suffered a lot.

      We did it like this on purpose, without camping as it allows us to focus on the bike riding and actually cover distance rather than having bikes that weigh 30kg. Maybe another time we’ll camp!

    Absolute troopers! Having had food poisoning after delivering a yacht from Ft Lauderdale to Newport RI we all went to a restaurant...from around 2am the 4 of us succumbed to food poisoning and it wasn't pretty. The hotel owner bought us green Gatorade for hydration...it was the 1st time I have experienced green fluids coming out both ends at the same time. 2 days later greasy Wendy's burgers helped fix the problem.
