Is The World’s Most Bike Friendly Country About To Make A HUGE Mistake? | GCN Show Ep. 694

This week on the GCN Show, we investigate the surprising rise in cycling accidents in the Netherlands and ask if the world’s safest cycling nation is about to change its stance on helmets. We also explore how Olympic Champion Kristen Faulkner built her own AI system to optimize her performance and take a look at Tadej Pogačar’s brand-new Colnago TT bike.
