Those who know me understand the high regard I place on teamwork. Whether on the home environment, social circles, or workplace. I believe in the value of working hard, staying enthusiastic during challenging times, and offering empathetic support or solutions to those in need or less fortunate than ourselves. I very seldom get it all right.
This philosophy is why the Colin Mayer Tour (www.colinmayertour.com) captivates me. In this race, the focus on winning at all costs is replaced by the vital human element we must continually embrace—teamwork.
Teamwork is a two-way street. Sometimes, we will be the ones leading, offering encouragement, and helping someone across the finish line. At other times, we will be the ones following, needing guidance, assistance, and mentorship. Both roles offer equally important life lessons. Ultimately, this balance between leading and following enriches our understanding of teamwork and strengthens our collective spirit.
Maybe one day, I'll ride the CMT - who knows
IT'S ALL ABOUT TEAMWORK.
The Colin Mayer Tour is a two-rider team format which means riders compete in pairs rather than individually, helping each other through the race's challenges. They have to stay within a certain distance of each other throughout the race. This rule ensures that both riders are contributing to the team effort and prevents one rider from leaving the other behind.
This format encourages a social and supportive element making the race more about cooperation and collective endurance rather than just individual performance.
