TCRNo9 | Day 6

In this #TCRNo9 episode we get a glimpse into the minds of the two leaders of the Race – Christoph Strasser (001) and Robin Gemperle (003) – after they each arrive at CP3, 5H apart. Gravel challenges and route choice spell the future from here, as the two race towards the coming off-road sections on Parcours 3 and 4. Amrei Khun, a Bursary rider from TCRNo8 is volunteering at CP3 this year and tells us of the program’s impact on her life. Race Coordinator David Ayre talks us through the transition from the Alps into the TCR heartlands – the Balkans, and explains the role of the Control Cars on the Race. We also hear from Will Vousden (119) – the man who diverged from all other riders in Slovenia and took a lonesome course through Croatia where he had to overcome self-doubt and sharp climbs.Produced by Iain BroomeMusic: Joe Skinner
