Video: Lancashire cyclist races train across the country

Total lack of class

that was not the best timing for the comment

negative with a positive story is not the best strategy

What the hell does Zwift have to do with this story?

The way Cameron was handled by British Cycling (note NOT Zwift) was awful. The competition was a shambles, did anyone look at the most basic aspects - putting everyone on a bike with the same weight and aero would be easy! Yet I can bet that many of those who criticise what he did will be happily cycling around on Zwift with the "trainer difficulty" set to 50% which it is by default, meaning those 10% climbs are actually feeling like 5% meaning they can do more.

Stick to the actual title of the story and stop the clickbait, it's cheap

what a hit job of an article, misleading the reader in to a simple rehash of previous wrongdoing

I had a problem getting video to play. When It eventually played,I attempted several times to edit the previous comment. Unfortunately, website maintenance page kept appearing. Finally can post this update!

There appears to be a problem editing a previous comment

Entertaining, very decent figures.

The Zwift misdemeanor, once checked out was extremely badly handled by the authorities. He won the Zwift racing, but was stripped with retrospective rules not in place at the time of the misdemeanor

That was quite an enjoyable watch!  Very Top Gear-esque.

Going across country from home to a friends in Bucks is about 34.5 miles of undulating roads (could be 4 miles shorter but part of the route is garbage for cycling and it's more uppy/downy) takes around 2:15-30 including three busy towns to navigate through.

Train wise door to door it would take me 2:45 minimum, that's 10+20mins cycling to/from station. 10 mins extra time before train departs, a few minutes exit time out of end station plus 2:01 fastest train (2 trains) as I have to travel into London and out again.

By car it's an easy 55 minute drive, I haven't done that in nearly three years now!

What a waste of an article. So where were the results ?? How did a train race become an article about something we have read previously....
Better stop smoking funny leaves Alex!

Well i thought the article was a helpful intro. I had heard of him from the zwift story which made hime seem a bit of a tool but the video is great and i think he comes across well and seems really likeable. It's also a route i know well and it's hilly af so that was a high quality bit of riding irrespective of whether he beat the train or not. 

what a bloody pointless article, misleading the reader in to a simple rehash of previous wrongdoing

......and the winner was........

It's a shame that road.cc used this opportunity to rehash more words about Jeffers's Zwift story than the actual story about bike vs train to which the headline relates.

Perhaps this story was actually meant for the Sun newspaper?
