I headed to Norway, to take part in the first edition of the L’Etape Trondheim. It’s here that I get a chance to line up and ride/race with UNO X, a professional cycling team and a Tour de France stage winner in Jonas Abrahamsen!

A little about Ed….
Ed is an elite cyclist, 2019 British Hill Climb Champion and former Under 23 British RR Champion. He has raced as a Continental level Professional Rider for one of the most successful British cycling teams in Japan, Korea, Australia, Canada, Azerbaijan to name a few. He is also a public speaker, coach, and founded the on/offline cycling community, Backpedal. At the start of 2021, the Discord community began, and plonked many of Ed’s viewers in to a 550+ strong group of people that had many things in common. Not least wanting to explore the world and pedal their bikes faster!
Ed coaches lots of cyclists in the online community too! If you are interested, email [laverackcoaching@yahoo.com] for information on the 1-2-1 coaching package and training plans, of which there are many and flexible options to suit everyone!
Ed now prioritises having fun with my hard earned fitness and knowledge in the sport. Showcasing that maybe there is an alternative to racing for teams when you can race for yourself and your community of followers and brands. This YouTube channel is a docu-series highlighting what it’s like to be a cyclist in today’s competitive age of sport.

It was nice meeting you at the bib pickup and at the race. Hope you had a nice ride in Norway and you come back! Best wishes.
Strong ride, great video mixing footage, narrative and data. Clearly form is coming good for Marmotte and Etape.
Great video of an interesting new race. Kudos for a great effort 👍🏻
Looking good for the big events. Great video as usual
Looked like a great event and well done in competing with those vikings!
Cracking effort and fab content. Nice one Ed. M.
Great performance Ed. I thought that the quality of your footage was brilliant, and it was great to see some event footage mixed in.
Appreciate you for having me in the frame for a split second, when you passed me from the short round😂
First rate videography. Great race performance. Loved your post race analysis. Great video IMHO. Thanks.
Seems like you had a lot of fun. Good marketing for the event and the city, too. Lovely shots from the race, so thank you
#1st placed
Non-Norwegian. 😉
Great ride!, must be promising given it’s not even your terrain. Went to Norway for the Worlds in 2017, I love the country and all the people I met were so friendly. Most underrated destination for sure!
Being surprised that your Zwift climb tactic doesn't really work IRL because you cannot ride through other riders …
I did the 130 km on saturday, I was just pleased that I made it trough the finnishing line.. Strong effort by you Ed Laverack
Great vid Ed, and nice to see what went on at the front. I was a bit further back, hope to see you next year👍
I saw you cross the finish line and my daughter and I cheered you on. You are a good cyclist.
What an incredible event. Huge respect to the organisers !
The bloke on the gravel bike was Ole Bjorn Smisethjell (Obsmis)
1st (of the clean riders) at Traka 560 this year.
looks like an awesome event
What a great review 🚲❤️
Which power pedals are you using? Measuring both side?
I finished 75km.. See you next year 🎉
cool report. need more dFCR 🙂
The "gravel bike rider" is Ole Bjørn Smisethjell, he came 3rd in the traka adventure and 2nd in atlas mountain race this year!
The other rider you were with is coop Norge rider. None too shabby!
