Two years ago, while cycling up Great Dun Fell, I faced an unexpected challenge: a herd of cows charging down the road. I had no idea what to do, but with the farmer shouting instructions, I stretched my arms out—and to my surprise, the cows stopped! This incredible moment was captured on my GoPro and quickly went viral, racking up over 17 million views on Instagram and 4 million more on TikTok.
The video gained attention worldwide, leading to features on The Today Show, ABC News, and even the GCN Show. I was interviewed by Danny New on ABC News, featured in Cycling Weekly (here is the link to the article https://www.cyclingweekly.com/news/can-we-take-him-cyclist-stays-cool-to-halt-oncoming-herd-of-cows ), and even shared my story with cycling fans across the globe.
In this video, I relive the incredible experience, sharing the original footage of the cow encounter, the reactions from American TV, and the hilarious commentary from Simon Richardson and Conor Dunne on GCN.
