Episode 5 of The Atherton Project begins with the team travelling to the mountain town of Sauze D'Oulx for a week's free riding ahead of the next World Cup race.
It's a place where all there is to do is eat, sleep and ride – a perfect place to hone skills and switch off from the rigours of the World Cup, at least temporarily.
The team also reflects on the season so far, and looks ahead to what's to come.
