- Welcome. - Welcome.
- To GCN News Show.
- Thanks, Simon.
We're here,
- At the back of the truck.
- Those are the Yorkshire Dales.
- We've been given some time by none other
than Chris Froome.
- Beat Mark Cavendish.
- OK, Alberto. - Marcel Kittel
- Thanks for chatting with us, mate.
- Peter, you ready to show us some skills?
- No.
(laughter)
(lively instrumental music)
(cheering)
- Yeah, come on.
(lively instrumental music)
- Let's have a look, see just what we can find.
Check it out.
(lively instrumental music)
- We honestly can't quite believe this
but today we've got the incredible honor of inviting
all of you to celebrate with us as we hit
the incredible milestone of one million subscribers.
- Yeah, we are almost, but not quite lost for words
because it's been a memorable, exciting,
and fun four year ride.
But first and foremost we want to thank you,
our incredible viewers.
- Absolutely, you share your videos, your photos,
your thoughts, your captions, your comments
and we just wouldn't be here without you.
So thanks, thanks a million, in fact.
- Yeah now as well as you lovely lot,
we've also got a fair few other thank yous to say as well.
For example, our bike and equipment partners
without whose support we wouldn't be able to make
free-to-view content.
Then of course, the incredible people
behind the scenes here at GCN who truly make what GCN is.
- Yeah, they film us being total and utter idiots.
They edit our fluff lines but still somehow
magically make content that you enjoy, incredibly.
- Speaking of which they've been busy behind the scenes
making the following edits and thanks very much to them.
- I think take 39 is probably the best we've done actually.
- Yeah, definitely.
(crashing)
- 100,000 subscribers and it hasn't anywhere
near sunk in yet.
This is stuff dreams are made of.
(cheering)
(lively instrumental music)
- Who is the fastest GCN presenter?
This would avoid any embarrassing moments
when we finally come to a stop.
(lively instrumental music)
- I feel a little bit guilty, you know this is Matt's
first cross race and it's probably one of the toughest
circuits I've seen.
- [Narrator] Four riders, one mission,
avoid humiliation at all cost.
How do you feel about going up against,
two against one with the GCN boys?
- [Male] I'm beaten square and fair.
- [Narrator] Cornering is simply about grip and confidence.
Elbows out, look down at your stem.
That's the ultimate way to climb.
(lively instrumental music)
- [Narrator] This stance sees the rider in relaxed
yet focused mood.
Do not try this one at home.
- I don't want to be pessimistic,
but I think I've only just going to be able to ride this.
(upbeat instrumental music)
- Is it the right temperature?
- No.
- Three, two, one.
(laughing)
(upbeat instrumental music)
- [Narrator] Our preparation starts here and now
for a crack at the record on August 4, 2017.
- I can't believe how much we've aged in just four years.
- Well I think we're all right but I must admit Dan
you're looking a bit older, buddy.
Sorry about that, but anyway how are we going
to celebrate such a momentous occasion
aside of course from the champagne
in the middle of the table?
Well remember the April Fool's joke back on April the first?
The old trandem record?
- Triplet, I think it is.
- Yes triplet.
- The triplet record.
Well we are going to make that a reality
because in the autumn, date yet to be fixed,
we're going to have a massive party.
Midway through that party for one hour
we're all going to attempt to smash the world triplet record
which actually until then won't exist.
And you, more importantly, are invited along to watch.
- That's right, details will be divulged
in the very near future.
But effectively we would like you to come and join us.
Watch us limp, in all likelihood scorch around a track
for one hour.
Watch our mates at GMBN doing loads of cool stuff,
having a look at some amazing bike tech.
And of course if you can't be there in person,
this being GCN, you can join us online as well.
- If you go for the online option you will need to provide
your own mineral water.
- That's a good point.
- Which implies we'll be providing mineral water.
We'll definitely be doing that.
We will be releasing more details as and when
we know them on our various social media channels
and also on the weekly GCN Show.
So stay tuned for that.
In the meantime, all that leaves us to say
is a huge thank you to each and every one of you
for your support, and indeed for watching the videos.
It really does mean the world to us.
All right, can I crack this open now?
- You can indeed.
- You're very restrained, mate.
- [Men] Ooh, oh.
(laughter)
- That was actually live, that was live.
- It's all over me, it's all over my jeans.
- Crumbs, did you see that?
That was amazing.
- We haven't said make sure you subscribe.
- Make sure you subscribe to GCN.
- And you can share this one as well.
- Give it a like, if you like it.
- Maybe watch it several times.
- What remains of my hair, it's all over the place.
- There is a little drip coming down.
- [Men] Cheers.
