A Chilean-American, a Scotsman and an Anglo-Italian go hiking along the Amalfi Coast (Furore fjord and Path of the Gods). As they go they engage in debate about cultural Identity. Language, nationality, citizenship, migration, freedom, multiculturality, London and Naples city are some of the topics they explore.

Focus Trail Team - Meets the Dolomties
What do Enduro professionals do in their spare time? Mountain biking in the Dolomites, of course. But with a difference – as the video shot by our Focus Trail Team shows. When it's not about results … Germany's Enduro Champion Fabian Scholz tells the story behind the inspirational video.
At 4 a.m. the alarm clock tears us from our peaceful slumber. In three hours we have to be on the starting line … Hold on a moment! The last race of the season was last weekend. Then it dawns on us – we're in Wolkenstein, in the heart of the Dolomites. Not to race, but for pleasure. But we still need an early start because we've set ourselves quite a challenge.
Half an hour later, Tobi, Markus and I are sitting on our FOCUS SAMs, with our Lupine lights set to full power, and are climbing the first dolomites mountain. We seem to be the only people out and about at this hour of the morning, but then we discover a few climbers on the mountain opposite. They too are using lights and are already near the summit. Two hours later we've made it to the top, and can enjoy the sunrise and the first warming rays of sun in the dolomites. After a quick snack to keep our strength up, we follow the call of the trail. After all, our target is to complete the Sella Ronda. Not by the standard route, of course, we want to ride as many single-track trails as possible. In preparation, we got the people at Bike Hotel Linder to describe the best route to us.
The first descent takes us along a flow trail from the Gardena Pass direct to Alta Badia. In the meantime, the lifts have opened, so we take advantage of them, and a short time later, we reach the summit of the Col Alt. It isn't actually on our route, but we couldn't resist it. An extremely technical trail – almost like mountaineering on a bike. In fact, some sections prove impossible to ride, and we even struggle on foot. But on the lower section, all our effort is rewarded with a soft forest floor and smooth curves. After this successful mission, we can relax as we leave Corvara behind us. And already we're sitting in the next lift on the way to our lunchtime destination via the Campolongo Pass with a superb view to the Dolomites peaks. Theoretically we're in Italy, but most of the region actually belongs to South Tyrol. So, of course, we dine not on spaghetti but a generous portion of Knödel and Schlutzer, Tyrolean specialities comprising filled pasta parcels and delicious dumplings. We finish with a traditional dessert of Apfelstrudel, and when we hit the next trail, we soon notice that we're not taking the bends quite so smoothly after our culinary indulgence. But there's no time for a siesta because we've still got a good few miles ahead of us.
On arriving at Canazei, we climb into an impressive cable car that you could easily imagine featuring in a James Bond movie. In next to no time, it takes us up to the Col Rodella, where the Kuscheltrail awaits us. Left and right, the trail is bordered by dense swards of grass reaching up to bottom bracket height, which it is all too easy to get caught up in. No doubt it would make for a soft landing, but fortunately we manage to negotiate the trail without having to test it. We then set our course back to Wolkenstein, where we end the day by relaxing with a well-earned cold beer. So you see, Enduro is not just about racing, but also experiencing nature close-up on your bike.

Emma's Buffalo Bike Challenge For World Bicycle Relief
Emma was in Alta Badia and climbed the Passo Gardena on a Buffalo Bike. These bikes weigh 24kg and only have one gear, why would she be riding a mountain pass on one? Watch the full video to find out...

The story starts with a conversation with World Bicycle Relief UK. We’re a fan of the way they manage to empower people in developing countries through cycling and the Buffalo Bike. They told us they have a team for Ride 100, at the end of July, riding to raise money towards World Bicycle Relief. And they asked if Emma would like to be part of the team! Emma was chuffed but wasn’t sure people would sponsor her to just ride her bike 100 miles, not much of a challenge for such an athlete. So she decided to take things to another level, by saying she’d do it on a buffalo bike!

Last year Si and Matt said that they would ride across central London wearing only speedos if we raised a certain amount of money for World Bicycle Relief. You donated a staggering $170000. Time has passed, but I have not forgotten. Here we are, in Trafalgar Square, ready for action. Prepare for Si's ride across London...
With that money, World Bicycle Relief was able to buy 1203 Buffalo bikes. Bikes that literally changed people’s lives by giving them the ability to further, faster, and more safely, to open up opportunities as basic and fundamental as going to school or fetching water.
Andrea Tafi, the 52-year-old former winner of Paris Roubaix might well have got himself a world tour team for next year to give himself another crack at his favourite race, 20 years since he last won it. According to the UCI President, David Lappartient, it might be with team Dimension Data. No idea why he’s leaking that to the press, but there you go. Tafi’s Roubaix dream is getting closer.

Which do you think is harder? Let us know in the comments below ????
Si and Matt challenge one another to see which is fastest, a road bike or a mountain bike in a route from A-B.
The rides were taken part in the beautiful Alta Badia region of Italy.
Simon took to the dirt on his mountain bike whereas, thankfully, Matt stayed on the asphalt on his road bike.
The question is, who will be fastest, Road Or MTB ?
Who will have the highest average power...

Gravel Bike Vs MTB | Iceland Bikepacking Epic - Which Is The Ultimate All-Rounder?
We challenged our friends over at GMBN to find out what the ultimate all-road bike is, a gravel bike or a mountain bike? But we weren't going to solve this question anywhere, so we went to the ultimate testing ground, Iceland!
In association with Moots, Reynolds, Cycliq, and Komoot.

Thanks to IceBike Adventures for help in making these videos:
Check out our routes on Komoot here:
Simon was joined by Neil for his icelandic adventure, GMBN vs GCN, gravel vs MTB, Drop bars and pretty skinny tyres vs suspension forks and flat bars. Just who would have the best tool for the job?
Over two days, and 200 kilometres Si and Neil traversed the Icelandic Highlands by bike. The guys aimed for the Icelandic summertime, but it turns out summer means something different over there, as the temperature hovered around 0 degrees Celsius in the daytime!
This was an absolutely incredible adventure over some of the most stunning terrain you can ride a bike on, and we'd love to know what you think of it. So leave us a comment down below this video!
