The UNBELIEVABLE Power Outputs Of Tour De France Cyclists! | GCN Show Ep. 600

What do you think of the Tour de France so far? Let us know 👇

The only thing „damaging the image of the sport“ is the UCI itself and therefore should pay 200 CHF to me

UCI is a farce. Full stop. This tour has been a stand-out for me - Cavendish, Girmay, and some polished performances - not least the bunny hop - this feels like a tour to remember

With that bunny hopping I think Le Tour needs a trials stage.

I am 60 years old, at the twilight of my cycling journey, now primarily rides an ebike, and yet, I still have the same excitement watching the GCN Show hosted by its founding presenters, Simon and Dan, I still remember 11 years ago, when this channel started, people throw the word game changer everywhere, well, GCN, is a game changer in the world of cycling. Thanks Dan and Si for your outstanding contributions to cycling. Truly, GCN, is the GLOBAL CYCLING NETWORK!!

Presenters: Ollie for being an absolute machine willing to take on any kind of punishment, and a fountain of positivity. Si - totally relatable, and ties with Ollie for my favourite nerd. Alex for, well, speed obsession. Manon - for being a good sport, but peaking as DS in Cheddar Gorge (just what the boys needed). Hank - like Ollie - game for anything. Connor - like that younger brother that sometimes makes you shake your head, but you love him anyway. Dan - as the OG with the history and insights. And the combined GCN/GMBN for hilarious cross-overs

Have loved all the TDF so far but Mark Cavendish breaking the record was my highlight of the tour, was crying, laughing, so pleased, not bothered now who wins, I'm made up for him, all his peers congratulating him, was beautiful to see 🤩🤩

We love you too Simon!!! Also, congratulations to the whole GCN crew and staff on 600 episodes!

Dan: Trust us, we're national level cyclists in MTB! Also Dan: Breaks his ankle riding on grass.

11 years later and I still love watching these two present together. They just seem to fuel each others banter in such an effortless and natural way.

Andre Dreger memorial straight into cycling shorts was a juxtaposition

Yeah, deep down I think we know why they have so much power output these days, and here’s a hint: it’s not nutrition or marginal gains

Pogačar did 6.98 ᵉW/Kg for 39:50 min, which is by far the greatest climbing performance ever, taking into account conditions and the stage difficulty. Sea normalised power for this historic effort is 7.27 ᵉW/Kg. Pogačar’s adjusted altitude score was 696, which means this performance was equivalent to pushing 6.96 ᵉW/Kg for 60 minutes at sea level.

The officiousness of the UCI always reminds me of Red Dwarf and Rimmer quoting Space Corps directives. The UCI clearly need a Kryten to tell them that they're quoting the wrong directive.

Been a fan of GCN almost from the start and for me the Si & Dan combo is best! Not saying I don't enjoy the others, but the rapport and timing between you two is great!

“Satan would ride a recumbent.”🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣❤️

This year's Tour de France is absolutely amazing. Even the slow days are entertaining. I've enjoyed every stage.

16:15 I was astonished when I heard on Beyond the Podium that he was reprimanded. So glad y'all explained it! Unbelievable garbage! The tour is something incredible to watch and be a spectator. Kissing his wife and child was so incredibly sweet to me I actually cried!! In fact I was sad that here in USA we don't have something like that. So it was so cool that he could be supported by his family and friends in his home area. Bad call in my opinion. Does the UCI forget that the cyclists are PEOPLE with feelings and lives outside of the tour? For Pete's sake!

Those fully plastic tyres I’m guessing will flake off even more microplastic particles than other tyres which I think are rubber / plastic hybrids.

I can't hear "Derek Gee" without my brain rapping "is a bad young brother" (Oh yeah)
