We’re on TV this Saturday!

Back in May, I had the incredible opportunity to take part in filming for ITV’s brand-new show You Bet On Tour, which was recorded at the Lee Valley VeloPark in London. After months of keeping it under wraps, I can finally share the news — it’s airing this Saturday 13th September at 8.30pm on ITV1 (and available on ITVX straight after). There’s even a repeat showing on Sunday 14th September at 5.30pm.

Our challenge brought together members of the Penny Farthing Club to put our unique skills to the test in front of a celebrity panel, hosted by Joe Lycett. The panel of Oti Mabuse, Greg Rutherford, and Danny Jones had to decide whether or not we could pull off our challenge successfully.

It was an unforgettable day of filming — being in such an iconic venue, riding these historic machines, and sharing the sport with a national audience. It’s not every day you get to wheel a penny farthing out onto an Olympic velodrome with cameras rolling!

Here are a few behind-the-scenes shots from the day:

You’ll have to tune in to find out how we got on (no spoilers here!) — but one thing’s for sure, it’s going to be a great watch.

📺 Don’t miss it — Saturday 13th September, 8.30pm on ITV1 (repeated Sunday 14th September at 5.30pm), and streaming on ITVX afterwards.
