Sunday Sofa Slouch: Les Gets World Cup Edition

by 1

In place of midweek movies (well, at least sometimes) we thought we’d try out Sunday sofa slouch. That way you can hopefully enjoy a lazy Sunday and spend the morning slouching and watching some videos. Watch whilst recovering from a heavy night, a long ride on Saturday, or before heading out for the day. It can even be a way to wind down before your week starts again. Whatever it is, enjoy catching up on some great content. This week why not go with World Cup videos from Les Gets.

DIALED S3-EP13: A look inside DH Finals in Les Gets | FOX

Honestly, the Dialed series is such a good insight and a fun watch every episode. We get to see riders preferences with suspension, the changes they make and how their bikes are feeling. Go behind the scenes with the Fox team as well as the producers, it really is such a good series.

Not too good about writing about myself, but not so bad at writing about other things. There was a time that I hated bikes, but then they became my life. Wouldn't be the person I am if I hadn't been on this journey. Here's to bikes, drinking tea and everything that comes with life on two wheels. I'm Lauren, I like bikes and writing about them. Always trying my best and up for adventures.
