this so we’ve got Can you see that so we’ve got actually nice weather today um Cat Ferguson won it and I will compare our straas i saw it on Strong and I was like “Oh not that I’m a professional but it just goes to show how fast they are when you see it compared to your own straa times.” So yeah that’s what I’m up to today i’m here with British Cycling so we’re going to be going seeing what’s on it’s like a lovely like little event village um and then later on today I’m going to be doing or leading a ride around the actual circuit when the women have finished so that’s what we’re up to i’ve got me cap let me put me cap on not normally a big fan of caps but prop this up on me phone but for you I’ll put this cap on it’s definitely my color i do like green so let’s go and uh should we have

turbos they know how to do it before being flung out here in the feed zone they’ll be making sure that their bikes are as light as possible lots of people out supporting the race and this is the thing i love the racing but I love the community of it even more because there’s just so many people out there’s so many kids on bikes it’s so just just so lovely to see got one lap and we’ve got the prize given and then we’re going to be doing a couple laps of the course which I’m really looking forward to thank you so much i mean wasn’t it are you doing bike racing now she keeps saying she wants to be a profession she’s not sure if she wants to do m bike but she wants to be a professional cyclist for Ali i’m Millie Cousins and I’m 21 i’m Laura Hkins and I’m 21 i’m Ella Mlan How and I’m 20 and how

that you got to do it you got to do it it’s so good all right so we ended up doing two laps 16 I mean 17 whole kilometers it was really I don’t know i think what I love about cycling in the sport and events like this is you actually get to go and ride the course so you actually get to feel and experience what the pros were doing obviously they did it ridiculously fast and I guess that’s the whole thing with events like this like I love the racing like it’s so good to actually see the pros in real life and just see and experience what they do but equally like I love the community of this like meet I’ve met so many of you again today which has been really nice and just being around people that love cycling as much as you do also as well today I have never seen as many kids on bikes at any other event that I’ve ever been to in all the years I’ve been cycling like I’m there’s another girl like little girl on a bike here it’s unreal that that is promoting and supporting the next generation of cyclists which I love and I’m so much about so yeah thank you so much to watching hang on thank you so much for watching thanks also to British Cycling for inviting me and just making

Wishing you many more perfect rides ahead
Tiny cyclists too cute … but … also great to see them starting on bicycles at such a young age, no doubt inspired by all the lovely riders at this event. 🚴♂️🙂
Great video with nice scenery especially the architectural buildings in Glasgow as you are riding the course for 2 laps with hil climb included😮. The kiddie riders were nice. Thanks for sharing katie.
Great fun to watch, like the LLOYDS top, bank with them too, haven't offered me one !! 😟😆
I love seeing kids out on their bikes when I'm out riding , I give them a thumbs up and a well done . Another smashing video
i watched them come through Stockton (posted some clips on my Youtube) and it was amazing seeing how fast and close together they were going.
Was lovely to meet and ride with you! 🥰
Thanks for the last vid, I didn't know about this event until then. Rode 5 laps myself, the wind was savage along the Broomielaw (next to the Clyde)! The hill you talked about on St Vincent Street is one runners will know well but in the other direction, that's the usual starting straight from George Square on the Great Scottish Run.
Loads of families out riding the long circuit which was great to see.
It was a great day, Glasgow did us proud. I Agree with you, so many kids were on the course on bikes!
Little Daisy is a star!
Coalition representing! Amazing 🎉
You look smashing in the cap! Thanks for sharing!
Great community fun. Thanks for sharing Katie.
Great to meet you Katie! Hope you enjoyed the day! 0:02
i was fortunate to have time to watch the whole tour . interesting and eventful.
(quite a lazy few days while they were burning calories unfortunately breaking a few bones )
Fantastic as per usual you bring the feeling of joy that cycling and the community bring and in a world of doom and gloom these videos are much appreciated thanks again katie 😀 🎉❤
Very nice video about the events not involving the pro peloton, thank you. Did wonder that the racing strava had 1360M and your strava, apparently same course had 2100+M? UK children are marvelous.
Looked a good day. I’ve done a Glasgow circuit on Zwift is that the same layout?
Nice looking jerseys lately Katie, wouldn’t mind getting one myself.
ah no – I was going to pop down and watch too. Gutted to have missed you – would have been lovely to chat! Hope you enjoyed our lovely city 🥰
That kit is fantastic looking. I couldn't find it on the britishcycling web site. Do you know if it's available?
Each time we see you at an event like this we are seeing you are your very best. The joy in your voice is contagious.
Ha, I thought I recognised the voice as I pulled up at Nelson Mandela place! That’s me in the white and blue Glasgow Wheelers top going into the left hander at bottom of hill. Hope you had a great day.
Peace & Cycling 💚
The little one was fearless! That made my day.
