  • Australia's most iconic bike race, the Grafton To Inverell has to also be one of the toughest classic on the calendar. This year I came to defend my title, but I knew I'd have my work cut out for me given the strength of the competition.

    The fact that your documenting the whole race from race tactics to numbers froth is quite enjoyable but to go on and win the race is just outrageous. Well done

      You rode a smart race to plan including fuelling. You went harder on the hill as planned and it paid dividends. A winning strategy and well deserved.

    Hi Chris. Thank you very much for taking the time and effort to provide coverage of the G2I. A big thank you to the Auriolc photography and Mat Gilfedder. Having previously raced the Grafton many years ago this brought back some good memories (although I may not classify Gibraltor as a good memory given I am a larger rider). I hope that through your channel and the power of social media that you may be able to provide content of other races. We used to have some fantastic racing, Nygan to Dubbo, Muswellbrook to Tamworth, Goulburn to Liverpool to name a few. Any and all footage you can provide combined with your insights into each race will be great. Race data and outputs will also be interesting. Keep up the informative, positive social media content 👍

    Love the video and IMO it's a good balance between numbers, tactics, logistics, in-race footage, as well as the personal stuff. For me, it's having all those elements that really makes a race recap interesting. Congrats on the win! And to be able to capture on bike footage of the race and to be able to put together such a great capsule of the win - I hope this video blows up and does mad numbers, but even if it didn't, f'ing amazing to be able to wrap up a day to remember in this way.

    This is FANTASTIC. Great footage, insightful but calm commentary. Congratulations on the win:-‘no close-but-no-cigar’, ‘valiant effort, maybe another day’, ‘mechanical/fuelling/weather/too many good riders’ excuses, any of which would’ve still have been a good video; you just rode off and won the bloody thing. Well done Chris - this is properly inspirational.
