Manon rocks! Cool to see the people we normally don’t see.

[BTcycle]

Really enjoy this kind of content, the everyday life of a GCN presenter. Thank you Manon and Jack.

Love this BTS / Vlog style content! I would be interested to see a BTS video about the daily GCN inner workings too, I've always been curious about the process of making a video from ideation, scripting, production, editing etc :)

[mattarmistead]

Love seeing a behind the scenes video. Would love to see a behind the scenes of GCN mega base as well and all that goes into making a GCN/GTN/GMBN Youtube video. I'm sure there are loads of really hard-working people that don't get enough credit for the amazing content that gets put out multiple times a week.

I never left my country before I’m so happy that we got to see this video with Manon. Great video and can’t wait to see the next one.

[miaklauk]

I love it when my two passions (cycling and motorsports) come together in one video

Chapeau Manon! Cheers from PDX to Jack and you. Yes please; more 'GCN:BTS'! All this talent, logistics, kit and effort turns a mere ride with friends into a much-loved spectacle of global proportions! Looking forward to GCN's 2024 Classics coverage! Thanks to all of you at GCN and your work covering the 2024 season. Off now to buy a pair of Mike's pink Crocs; hilarious!

Highly entertaining video with great insight into what is going on behind the scenes. Beautifully delivered by the GCN team. Both thumbs up 👍👍

[edwardp]

as a bike mechanic myself, i am quite jealous of their set ups! and as a racer, those bikes~!

[IIZEDCII]

Great video Manon! 🚴🏼Mike was rocking those pink crocs! 😊

[rakhaabbasi]

It’s a pleasure to see Manon at the Yas circuit where I ride my bike twice a week. I would have jumped in joy if I had seen you in person. Love your HIIT videos.

[treyquattro]

top Tour tip: always pack a Shadow Stand! Loved the behind-the-scenes with Manon. I'd love to see Manon going for a ride in Abu Dhabi with some of the women from the Tour too, Ollie-style.

[MatthewMabborang]

From the “Meet The Presentor”’s video a few years ago, Manon did some racing stuff as her favorite hobby outside cycling. The race track in UAE is awesome! I bet she wanted to drive a race car there too. 🥺

Also, great video indeed! It’s been a while since we’ve watched a @gcn vlog. Lovely and beautiful to watch and see the BTS too! 💖

[TK-ovhn]

Manon, you are the favorite presenter ❤

[danseb]

Really cool and entertaining. Would love to see more of these kinds of videos.

[adamc]

Fantastic stuff Manon, great vlog 👏🏻👏🏻

[ericcoxtcu]

I appreciate the behind the scenes video. I would love to see a behind the scenes of some of other location shoots as well - what does the crew look like for some of the trips that include a lot of riding?
