We Rode The World’s Biggest Bike Race : Supernerds Do Vätternrundan

Join Si, Alex, and Ollie as they take on the legendary Vätternrundan, a brutal 315km cycling event around Lake Vättern in Sweden, with the insanely ambitious goal of finishing in under 8 hours. Equipped with the latest aero gear, smart helmets, and a strict pacing strategy, the trio battles driving rain, headwinds, flat tires, and extreme fatigue to try and beat the clock. With the last rider across the finish line forced to eat stinky fermented herring, the stakes and the suffering were never higher! 🤝 In collaboration with: 🎧 @senaoutdoor 👉 https://gcn.eu/Sena 🧦 @velotoze 👉 https://gcn.eu/Velotoze ⏱️ Timestamps ⏱️ 00:00 - The 315km Under 8 Hours Challenge 03:59 - The Bikes & Aero Upgrades 06:54 - The Race Plan & Strategy 09:04 - The Surströmming Forfeit 09:55 - The Race Begins 13:13 - Disaster Strikes: Flat Tyre! 15:44 - Feed Stops & Pushing the Pace 19:18 - Hitting the Wall & Fatigue Sets In 23:49 - Heading Towards The Finish Line 27:42 - The Official Results: Did We Break 8 Hours? 29:04 - The Fermented Herring Penalty Useful Links: Join this channel to get access to perks 👉 https://gcn.eu/JoinYTmemberships Subscribe so you don’t miss a thing! 👉 https://gcn.eu/subscribe Insurance: Viewers in the USA and UK can explore GCN Insurance products 👉 https://gcn.eu/GCNinsurance Sign Up To The GCN Newsletter 👉 https://gcn.eu/Newsletter GCN Uploader 👉 https://gcn.eu/gcnuploader Visit the GCN Shop 👉 https://gcn.eu/gcnshop GCN WhatsApp Channel 👉 https://gcn.eu/GCNwhatsapp GCN Instagram Broadcast Channel 👉 https://gcn.eu/instagrambroadcast Join the GCN Club on Zwift and ride with us! 👉 https://gcn.eu/GCNClubRides Would you rather ride 315km in under 8 hours or eat a whole tin of Surströmming? 🐟🤢 Watch more on GCN... 📹 Watch our Editor’s Choice Playlist 👉 https://gcn.eu/editorschoice 📹 Or why not check out our Features Playlist 👉 ​​https://gcn.eu/gcnfeatures 🎵 Music - licensed by Epidemic Sound 🎵 Gentle Night - Beyza Act Calm - OTE Ambience, Grassland, Field, Outisde Small City, Fribourg, Switzerland - Epidemic Sound Believe (Instrumental Version) - Mindme Broken Heart - Swif7 Cartwheel Club - Sam Rankin Crowds, Misc, Convention Hall Crowd 02 - Epidemic Sound Electronica the Witch - Andreas Dahlback Endless Loops - Ooyy Happy Place - Aiyo Home (Instrumental Version) - Ooyy Infected (Instrumental Version) - LeDorean Karmalot (Instrumental Version) - Janset Long Way Home - Aiyo Love, Sweden - Vanity Street On My Way - Aiyo Open Roads - Aiyo Risen - Taelimb That's Love (Instrumental Version) - Mr. Steve, The Music Man Truthfall - Helmut Schenker Unsettling Mystery - Anna Dager What I Want (Instrumental Version) - Nbhd Nick I Need You Right Here - AGST #gcn #cycling #roadcycling #roadbike #bike #bikes #bikelife #vatternrundan #ad 📸 Photos - © Velo Collection (TDW) / Getty Images & © Sirotti Images The Global Cycling Network (GCN) is the largest online cycling channel in the world, bringing together a global community of road cyclists to celebrate everything that’s great about the world of cycling.
