Ben Swift on his shared cycling journey with G, transitioning from sprinter to domestique, and taking a trip down memory lane

Can you imagine racing against each other as kids round a park in Manchester and just a few years later you find yourselves at the top of the sport, winning some of the biggest races around? That's G and Swifty. With G's career coming to an end we thought it was time to finally welcome 'Swifty' to the GTCC - and take a big old trip down memory lane. It didn't disappoint. From leading Swifty out to his first major win at the Tour Down Under many moons ago, to Swifty becoming domestique deluxe to help G to a multitude of big wins over the years, these two have been through a lot together since those early days racing as juniors. And to be honest, Tom could have let them chat away for hours. Maybe we will one day. In the land of ROUVY, we're tackling part of the IRONMAN 70.3 Staffordshire route for this week's GTCC social ride.
