He is also a public speaker, coach, and founded the on/offline cycling community, Backpedal.

Ed now prioritises having fun with my hard earned fitness and knowledge in the sport. Showcasing that maybe there is an alternative to racing for teams when you can race for yourself and your community of followers and brands. This UA-cam channel is a docu-series highlighting what it’s like to be a cyclist in today’s competitive age of sport.

    we are lucky to have these circuits in South Wales. There also used to be Saturday morning crits at Llanwern (Newport) in the steel works site but I think they stopped in around 2000 when the works shut. that was a good circuit with some pretty iffy corners!! We could have done, and still could do, with something more purpose built like the circuit at Hillingdon in West London with a short, sharp incline.

    Great video! It took me around 11 hours and 30 minutes in the heat, it was only just before the alpe when I realised I had to to throw water on my head. After that the alpe “only” took me 1 hour and 15 minutes (58min pr). By far the hardest ride I have ever done. Hats of to you!

    Saw my first ever snowbanks on the Gotthard 2 weeks ago. It's a sight to behold. I've been in the alps probably 40+ times, but almost always in peak summer. Few times in late spring and the fall, but never saw the snowbanks until 2 weeks ago. The locals in Switzerland also told me they hadn't seen so much snow that late for many years.
