3 DAYS with TUDOR PRO CYCLING & FABIAN CANCELLARA at the worlds most EPIC BIKE RACE: Strade Bianche!

Tudor Pro Cycling invited me to Siena, Italy, to go behind the scenes at Strade Bianche 2023. I spent the weekend with 3-time Strade Bianche winner, Fabian Cancellara, and raced the Gran Fonda Strade Bianche from the front row. Oh, and I was given a Tudor Black Bay Chronograph watch to wear for the entire three days... One of the best cycling weekends ever? I think so.

Follow the crew!

Tristan, fabulous video! What a treat to get on the “inside” of Tudor Pro Cycling and at such a prestige event! I wouldn’t have doubted you had DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) in your face the week following - you were smiling like a little kid at Christmas during the entire vlog and all of those three days! Awesome!

Awesome result on the grand condo! As you said, Michael Valgren won the event. He’s back form his massive race crash from last summer, breaking his pelvis and tearing every ligament in his knee. I just listened to podcast that interviewed him after the grand fondo, and he was pretty excited to win that event, his first race back. He said his average power was 330 watts, normalized 390 watts! Ooooff!!

Lastly, I must say you have THEE best vlog on YouTube. Hands down! The quality of your imagery and styling of your videos is by far the best. I’ve watched every one of your videos from when you started to date and smashed them all with a big “like”! The best!Best wishes and continued success, both on the bike and off of it! Kudos and Cheers!

Tudor's kit is my favorite this year, it looks fire! Also very cool team, great sponsor and of course a legendary owner!

Tristan your videos are amazing 👍👍👍🚴🚴🚴 love watching them

[karlcycles]

Tristan I’ve been following your channel since you started and can honestly say this is the best video you’ve created. Not that your others haven’t been great, they all have, but this one honestly gave me goose bumps and seriously, I’m 110% booking a trip to Siena to watch Strade Bianche next year! You’re super lucky to be invited by Tudor but recognition I say for all your work in developing the channel. The quality of filming and editing is top drawer! Keep up the great work, loving the channel. Karl

This may be one of the best episodes you have ever done, Tristan. A great story and a weekend to remember for a lifetime. I have ridden l'Eroica twice over some of those same dusty gravel roads but that Gran Fondo looks like something else. My only experience with an Italian Gran Fondo was the Damiano Cunego GF some years ago and it was terrifying as everyone went full gas (maybe after pro contracts?) from the start! The Tudor Pro Team is looking very stylish, really polished. Super video, and a nice watch to wear for the weekend too.

It was exciting to see the weekend from your perspective. Congrats again for your effort on Sunday!

Tristan, this was brilliant! You do the behind the scenes content wonderfully. What really struck me with this video was the colours in many of the outdoors shots - perfect. Such a great opportunity for you, and the content totally delivered 👌

The fondo already was on my bucket list and now it is even more. Just beautiful.
