better than non-PR at all. One of recent bad examples is the horrible PR from SKY in the tour.

We like it 'cause it's funny. Of course they chose this song precisely because other people had done it first and doing your own "Call Me Maybe" video is a thing.

Yeah, I was more referring do any other cycling teams make videos etc such as the backstage passes

OPQS do some video's but not as regular (I think the last was at the tour) and not funny. Bit more doco style/Rapha style (ie stylised music in the background whilst riding), bit of chatting to camera.

Obviously this has thrown down the gauntlet to the OGE womens team to bust out their moves led by Tiff Cromwell

made my cringe but it is good to see something different for once

way more interesting than the rapha style staged & sanitized garbage coming out of some teams

Made me cringe as well but mainly becuase that song is just terrible.

Good on the GEC boys for being proactive on the media front. Cycling needs more personality as it is.
 
Just watched this! I gotta say; those guys (and one girl) are just bloody mental! :D

Kinda wonder how many times they made everyone else go "What the **** is he doing?"
Like when Clarke turned around on the podium and showed everyone his number! :p

That video was pretty good...but I'm with Race Radio on this one...they don't hold a candle to the cheerleaders of my local NFL football team.

And his number wasn't even there.

I wasn't going to watch it because I feared it would be tacky but I must admit it was great! Makes the team very sympathetic, others should try it :D

Shame they didn't show Clark today on the podium on TVE
Did he do that "call me" thing again? :D
