#TCRNo9 is here. https://t.co/V7cd1LGpxs. Starting once again on Flandrien cobbles, this year’s route guides our intrepid, self-supported riders south and east; across Alpine passes, through sheer gorges and along ancient roads, finally coming to rest on the edge of Europe...

Terrifying

I know how those guys felt in American werewolf in London when they didn’t to do Road

It’s taken 4 hours to get to about 3 miles from the Eurotunnel. Have moved 100 meters in past 50 minutes. Gonna take a little while to catch this train! #tcrno8cap5
