Kudos to you amateurs Danni is a serious gravel monster….not many pro riders would want to be chased down by her
-
This video showed the joy of riding that we had when we’re kids. The whole reason to ride is to have fun.
-
Clearly Si is not the only one to forget the shadow stand!😂 Always love a Manon vid and well done Emma!
-
how much faster ? Beginner- Trying to make it to the Cafe. Amatuer- On the way to the Cafe. Pro- Waiting for the other two at the Cafe.
-
Had no idea gravel so popular. Thumbs up Emma for accept the challenge and give it a go hope she enjoy it. So fast! 10k vs 200k wow.
-
This is one of my favourite ever GCN videos! Completely honest and totally relatable - Emma, you are my hero!
-
Knew it was a matter of time for Danni to make it to GCN! :yougotthis:
-
Nice to see Manon getting some ladies' only screen time, she looked to be really enjoying herself. Good work team. Perfectly timed this vid, I'm doing the Kent Gravel Epic this sunday.
-
Enjoyed this vid very much - gravel as fun between friends (that’s the “spirit of gravel” imo). Took me back to the halcyon days of the J-Pow gravel content!😊
-
the fun they all had doing this was a joy to watch. .more please. .
-
4th at Unbound?? <----World Championship ) Impressive. Her skill set was crazy. I was also impressed with the Dragon Queen's performance. I think you should keep gravel racing. I really enjoyed this vid, thanks Manon!
-
This video deserved more time being spent on it, it'd be great to see GCN take a beginner and change their life from a fitness cycling aspect
-
They had so much fun, I would have enjoyed riding with them. Next time they can come ride where I live outside Seattle and enjoy out gravel.
-
Don’t call carbon bikes and near-top groupset “beginners” please 😂 I just got my true beginner gravel, full alloy and with Claris components. Now that’s a proper 😂😂😂 Fun fact, I’ve put a new set of 48mm tires, which makes half a price of a bike 😅
-
Interested to see this with everyone on the same setup. That loop looks wonderful.
-
GCN has blessing us with Harriet and Emma as the newer riders! Also I don’t think Emma would have benefitted from clipless pedals in this format since as a new rider trying to compete in events like these, adding another stressor like clipless pedals would probably be more mental strain than benefit.
-
Enjoyed this video. Would love to see more of Emma who was amazing as a beginner on gravel
-
Emma smashed it! Would be great to see her back. Really nice to see crossover athletes who are newer to cycling but have some big watts from other sports - esp. rowers! 💪
-
I gotta get myself a gravel bike always an awesome vid with manon❤👍🤘
