    Also Chris: Alright, alright. Let's respect the speed limits! This is a 30 mph zone.

    Ps. Good driving, Esmee. Those pesky speed limits and junctions making life hard. ;P

Don’t listen to the odd negative comment, you’re providing fun, interesting content for free and it makes me want to ride my bike more. Keep it up and looking forward to seeing you racing soon. And good to see you gaining additional sponsorship.

    The best thing ever for the 3rd race would be bike vs airport shuttle + plane. A race from Manchester to London. The race starts from home. The race ends in front of some specific place in Central London. The flight is 45min, the shuttle + wait time at the airport is over 2h30m + 2hrs to get to Central London by shuttle + 30/45min to get to the specific location (= about 6h30/7hrs) if I'm not mistaken, Cam could do it

    Chris should've taken the Tube instead and let Esmee do her thing, so you have three modes of transport racing each other a la Top Gear. It doesn't really make sense that he said this is a "round 2" from the bike vs train race, yet nobody's taking the public transport network this time.

    It is of course more fun with a race car driver and a ferrari but I really doubt it makes any real difference from a regular driver in a regular car if you stick to the speed limits. If anything, the ferrari is slower as it has issues on speed bumps and so on.

    the fact that they use the motorway makes the comparaison irrelevant inside London you would have defeated them
    I am a beginner in cycling but in paris you can do 16km/h average very easily on a bike and it is enough to defeat cars
    Nice runs tho !!
