It’s a Christmas jumper free zone here at the road.cc video round-up, well, unless you count those chaps mucking about on BMX and mountainbikes. If the onset of the festive season is getting to you then there’s some adventure biking to disappear into and a really good reason not to get a party haircut.
Believe in Bikes
Trek bikes give us their view of the world by bike. Geography may divide us but we are united by the power of the bicycle; a simple, elegant, solution to many of the world’s most complex problems. I’m sure they’d like more of them to be Trek bikes.

I concur GP4000 is the hardest I've ever had to mount on a rim, Ultegra wheelset in my case. Shifted the outer skin on my thumbs!...
