TCRNo10 // Day 04
 
Day 4 on TCRNo10 and the leading pack show no sign of slowing. Race Volunteer and Control Point Manager James Vernon talks to Robin Gemperle (002) at CP2 for our first proper report from the rider who’s held the lead since Roubaix.

Race Coordinator Andrew Phillips and Control Car 2 spend an early morning on the summit of Grossglockner. 

The mountains continue to mercilessly test riders and their gear,  and we hear from Jaimi Wilson (004), currently second fastest woman, and from our Bursary Riders as another eventful day comes to a close
