What is the role of media crews in ultra-endurance races? I was honoured to be included in this roundtable from @dotwatcher alongside other inspirational filmmakers & photographers. I'd be interested in your thoughts on the subject - my answers are here: dotwatcher.cc/feature/roundt…

If you are free next Tuesday evening, my latest film 'All Points North' for @KinesisBikes_UK launches at 8pm BST on YouTube: youtu.be/XQUe57GKSIA A few pics as preview, it was fascinating to follow Rupert, who cycled 1,000km in almost one go, with less than an hour of sleep.

Back to editing new films this week. In September 2021 I followed Rupert Robinson, cap no.37, on his 1000km-ride at All Points North. A fabulous event with breathtaking scenery, all captured in a new film for @KinesisBikes_UK - out very soon. #ultraendurance #bikepacking

16-year-old Jessie Stevens has set off to Glasgow for COP26 - in a rather unusual way. To avoid taking a plane or car, she's cycling from Devon all the way up to Scotland, on a trip that will take her hundreds of miles and 9 days to complete. @ewither went to meet her. #5News

Racing off-road can throw up a lot of unexpected mechanicals. What's the best/worst roadside repair you've had to do?

While riders push themselves into the nights of a @transconrace or @TransAtlanticWa, there are friends, family and fans staying up late, watching the progress of these races unfold from their phone and laptop screens. They are the dotwatchers. #Apidura apidura.com/journal/meet-the…
