Well, this is officially the craziest week of Road to the PTO European Open so far. Collin is injured and it's looking unlikely he will be ready to race and Mika had a broke crash and was in hospital when the episode was being recorded. So as the last man standing Frederic Funk called in Aaron Royle & Tom Bishop to fill in. Both of these two are athletes who will be at the front of the race so it was exciting to hear more from them about how they are preparing and their thoughts on the race.
