**NEW DOCUMENTARY SERIES**
In the past decade, ultra-distance cycling has skyrocketed in popularity. And events like the Transcontinental and the Trans Am Bike Race have changed the way many now think about what it means to race, and to be a “proper” cyclist. But the hardy adventurers who take on these epic events are still slightly elusive to those of us looking in from the outside.
So what does it take to push yourself to ride thousands of kilometres over a matter of days? In our new documentary series, Endurance, we follow three cyclists who are doing just that. And explore what they can teach those of us who aspire to take on bigger, bolder challenges.
In the second instalment, we meet endurance rider AJ Hill. A relative newcomer to the endurance scene, he’s hit the ground running, having completed two Everests, a High Rouleurs Society challenge (10,000km of up in one ride) and an Audax Super Randonneur award. But all of those are mere training rides in comparison to his next challenge, the TransAtlanticWay - a 2500km unsupported (predominantly) road race around Ireland.
