Giant, a formidable figure standing at 6ft 5in and weighing 136kg, is known for his impressive strength stats, including being able to squat 220kg and bench press 200kg. However, Si Richardson brings his cycling experience and determination to the challenge, having even done a couple of chin-ups around Christmas time.
Si is intrigued by the idea of how muscle power translates to speed on the track and decides to take on Giant in a head-to-head cycling race at the velodrome. The racing format is simple yet intense, with three challenges: a sprint test over 250m from a standing start, a head-to-head sprint covering two laps around the track, and a five-lap scratch race testing both power and endurance on the track.
The races are a pure test of physical power and determination with no external factors influencing the outcome. Si and Giant go head-to-head to see who will come out on top in this ultimate power battle on the velodrome. To find out who emerges victorious in this epic showdown, watch the video on the GCN website for more challenges and cycling content. Who will be the ultimate contender on the track?
