A little about Ed….
Ed is an elite cyclist, 2019 British Hill Climb Champion and former Under 23 British RR Champion. He has raced as a Continental level Professional Rider for one of the most successful British cycling teams in Japan, Korea, Australia, Canada, Azerbaijan to name a few. He is also a public speaker, coach, and founded the on/offline cycling community, Backpedal. At the start of 2021, the Discord community began, and plonked many of Ed's viewers in to a 550+ strong group of people that had many things in common. Not least wanting to explore the world and pedal their bikes faster!
Ed coaches lots of cyclists in the online community too! If you are interested, email [laverackcoaching@yahoo.com] for information on the 1-2-1 coaching package and training plans, of which there are many and flexible options to suit everyone!
Ed now prioritises having fun with my hard earned fitness and knowledge in the sport. Showcasing that maybe there is an alternative to racing for teams when you can race for yourself and your community of followers and brands. This RUclips channel is a docu-series highlighting what it’s like to be a cyclist in today’s competitive age of sport.

After all the pro riders you top it off by seeing Mr Cotty. Top video Ed. Chapeau to Charlie for lumping all the stuff around.
Oh yeah! He's an inspiration!
Nice ride and vid. Love climbing Rates. As you've said the gradient is just about right for a good effort all the way up.
Totally.
Thanks for sharing mate!
Love riding in that area. Was one of the first training camps I went on. Need to get back there!
Great video Ed, looks like a cyclists paradise out there
it is !
It is!
Thanks for another fun ride !
I also watched juniors doing lactate thresholds up “Rat es” sub 15 minutes efforts 4 times 😳
just got home from my "trainingcamp / vacation" from around there. when i went up the rates there where lots of pros aswell!
Nice ride! 🎉🎉
Love the Coll de Rates - going again in April 😊
EPIC!
enjoying this 'mini series'.👍
Glad you enjoy it!
great video 🙂
Great riding Ed
Thanks 👍
A Happy Meal 😂
Great video Ed and like the video tweaks you have made 👌😎 The big question is did anyone shout #EdMode 😁
Haha! Not this time!
Kopecky was staying in Xabia, there were quite a few pros there.
This time of year that place seems more and more like a giant bike path
Going 3rd March, Fred Whitton training 😮
8:30 - Majka & Owsian 😍
Charlie desending like a pro !
Really cool Video!! What GoPro stick did you use to film that sick POV GoPro footage?🔥🔥
It's actually shot on an Insta360 AcePro, with their bike tail mount bundle!
I have been riding it for weeks some days there is hundreds if not more pros and want to be a pro smashing it up the climb I would of liked to see a full gas effort is that on the cards ?
There will be be a video of my effort up there soon!
Ed.. do you take your own gels and bike food with you? What about drinks?
All of the above. Although it helps when there are petrol stations and cafes that you can call in to easily.
@@edlaverack ok cool. We head out to Mallorca end of March, a first for me
I hope you appreciate Charlie, she rocks !
Totally!
At 5;56 you filmed Florian Senechal of Arkea, ex Quickstep guy, did you speak to him?
I didn't realise it was him!
happy days
The fella from the col collective channel 😮
Thanks for watching that far ;)
the extra part of Rates is worth it btw
Coming soon!
Weight of there watches 😂😂
Do you feel to take on Tadej’s KOM? 😁
NEGATIVE
I see you bumped into my mate Mr cotty 😃
LEGEND!
@ I will ask his brother on that 😊
Ed! carry your own stuff!😂
Haha!
Just did this the other day. Zone 2 until the last 2.5 km. 42.5 min. Nice hill. Nothing too hard.
Nice one Douglas, hope you had a nice day for it!
