Why My New Bike Is Dangerously Fast | The GCN Show Ep. 656

Описание: This week on The GCN Show, we're asking a serious question: are modern bikes TOO good? After a ride on his new superbike, Dan argues that the incredible speeds of today's bikes could be dangerous in the wrong hands. We debate whether you need to "pay your dues" before riding the best tech.
Plus, we've got all the latest news, including the incredible story of the new Box Hill Strava KOM, a website selling used pro kit (including Ben Healy's Tour de France skin suit), and France's massive €2 billion investment into cycling.
And you won't want to miss Story Time, as Dan finally comes clean about the time he cheated in an international bike race back in the day!
