On this sweltering day 7 episode, the bulk of #TCRNo9 riders are on their way south to Control Point 3 in Albania. Race Coordinator, David Ayre, is in Control Car 2 waiting for riders to pass through Nikšić, Montenegro and gives us an update on weather and resupply before catching riders David Brinkman (057) and Jaimi Wilson (004). Pairs rider Sarah Ruggins (337a) talks to us about gratitude for being on the Race and messages from home. We get a new perspective from Control Car 1, as photographer Liz Seabrook shares about how she came across the TCR and the unique experience of capturing riders across multiple countries and terrain. We hear from more riders breaking into the Balkans, right through to the very front of the Race where we hear from #TCRNo9 leader Christoph Strasser. This is not one to miss as the action ramps up and the race to Thessaloniki is on!
