Expect epic adventures,

presenters and your post.

0:00:130:00:14

We've only got five minutes to get ready for your Blue Peter adventure.

0:00:140:00:18

We've been training hard for a very special challenge.

0:00:200:00:23

That is so tiring!

0:00:230:00:25

That's probably the hardest thing I've done yet.

0:00:250:00:27

It's a wheel-ly tough challenge we were set

0:00:270:00:29

by cycling legend Sir Chris Hoy.

0:00:290:00:32

Hi, Barney and Radzi, your Sport Relief challenge

0:00:320:00:34

is going to push your cycling abilities to the limit.

0:00:340:00:37

We're taking on a mini omnium.

0:00:370:00:39

Basically, it's the best of three different track races...

0:00:390:00:42

And after three months of training, it's finally race day.

0:00:460:00:50

We'll be competing in front of 3,500 people

0:00:500:00:54

and some of the world's best cyclists.

0:00:540:00:56

No pressure then!

0:00:560:00:58

To help settle our nerves, our coach, Charlie...

0:00:580:01:01

-Morning, lads.

-..has a surprise in store.

0:01:010:01:03

-Wow, look at that!

-Look at those!

0:01:030:01:05

Our very own Blue Peter cycling outfits.

0:01:050:01:08

Now we look the part, there's only one thing for it - let's race!

0:01:100:01:13

First up...

0:01:160:01:18

We will take in turns to try and set the fastest time

0:01:180:01:21

on one lap around the track.

0:01:210:01:23

And I'm up first.

0:01:240:01:25

-CROWD CHATTERS AND CHEERS

-Up on the track!

-Come on, Barnes!

0:01:250:01:28

Now all I need to do is remember my training -

0:01:280:01:30

get to the top of the track, build up speed and wait for the bell

0:01:300:01:33

before dropping down and going for it on my final lap.

0:01:330:01:37

Come on, Barney - up, up, up!

0:01:370:01:38

-Up, up, up!

-Go, Barney!

0:01:380:01:40

No, no, no, no, no, no, high!

0:01:400:01:41

-Agh.

-I'm not sure why Charlie's shouting at me.

0:01:420:01:46

He timed it wrong.

0:01:480:01:50

But when I hear the bell I realise my mistake -

0:01:500:01:53

I've dropped down a lap too early.

0:01:530:01:56

Come on, Barney! Come on! Come on!

0:01:560:02:00

I try to sprint for two laps instead of one

0:02:000:02:02

but my legs are in agony.

0:02:020:02:04

I can't believe it - the one event I've always been strongest at

0:02:040:02:07

and I've thrown it away. I am gutted.

0:02:070:02:10

Is that it?

0:02:100:02:11

Unlucky, Barney.

0:02:130:02:15

Now it's my turn.

0:02:150:02:16

I keep as high as I can

0:02:190:02:20

and when it matters, I drop down on the bell just as my last lap starts.

0:02:200:02:25

But I go a bit wide on the corner and it's slowing me down.

0:02:290:02:32

Hold your line! Hold your line! Come on, that's it!

0:02:320:02:35

My legs are burning but I keep on pedalling.

0:02:350:02:38

Come on, Radzi. This is the last bend - I have to go for it now!

0:02:380:02:41

Oh, I've done it - beating Barney by three seconds.

0:02:440:02:47

That's one to me.

0:02:490:02:50

I just gave that everything.

0:02:510:02:53

Absolutely everything.

0:02:530:02:55

Next...

0:02:560:02:58

A tactical race with both riders going head-to-head on track

0:02:580:03:01

and sprinting flat out for the finish.

0:03:010:03:05

And before we hit the track, our training partners,

0:03:050:03:07

Josh and Tilly, arrive to offer us some advice.

0:03:070:03:10

Josh, I'm in trouble. What can I do?

0:03:100:03:12

Make sure that you can always see Radzi

0:03:120:03:14

so that you can anticipate his moves.

0:03:140:03:16

-OK. Tilly?

-I think you need to move around the track -

0:03:160:03:19

-confuse him a little bit.

-I can do that, I reckon.

0:03:190:03:21

Doesn't take a lot to confuse me, you know that, mate.

0:03:210:03:23

Let battle commence.

0:03:230:03:24

Come on, Barney. Go, Radzi.

0:03:240:03:27

I decide to take the lead early and see what Radzi does.

0:03:270:03:30

Don't you worry, Barn, I'm close behind.

0:03:300:03:33

I got you, Radz.

0:03:330:03:34

I'm trying to keep an eye on Radzi

0:03:340:03:36

but it's hard looking over your shoulder.

0:03:360:03:39

I'm hanging back for a surprise attack.

0:03:390:03:42

As the bell rings, I decide to go for it.

0:03:440:03:46

My only hope this to overtake him on the bend...

0:03:480:03:51

but again I go wide!

0:03:510:03:53

I try to catch him but he's left me so much to do.

0:03:550:03:59

I have no idea where Radzi is any more.

0:04:000:04:02

My head is down and I'm going for the line.

0:04:020:04:06

..and that makes it one-all.

0:04:060:04:08

I tried so hard to come back at you then!

0:04:080:04:11

You were just absolutely pedal to the metal.

0:04:110:04:14

Once that bell went, I didn't know where you were.

0:04:140:04:18

So, I took the flying lap, Barney took the sprint.

0:04:180:04:22

It all comes down to this.

0:04:220:04:25

Only one of us can win this.

0:04:250:04:27

This is the decider...

0:04:270:04:30

Starting from opposite sides of the track, we have just four laps

0:04:320:04:34

to try and catch each other up.

0:04:340:04:37

First person across the finish line wins.

0:04:370:04:40

You know what you're doing,

0:04:400:04:41

I just want to see you get it all out on the track.

0:04:410:04:44

And we're off.

0:04:470:04:48

I get a better start and pedal as hard as I can.

0:04:480:04:51

-It takes me a while to build up my speed.

-Come on, Barney! Come on!

0:04:510:04:55

After the first lap, it's neck and neck.

0:04:550:04:57

And I've decided to go for it.

0:04:570:04:59

Go, Radz!

0:04:590:05:01

But will I last the whole race?

0:05:010:05:03

I'm still in this. I just have to keep on pushing.

0:05:040:05:07

I begin my last lap but my legs are really starting to tire.

0:05:080:05:13

Me, too. I'm giving it everything and I have no idea where Radzi is.

0:05:130:05:16

I can just see Barney. For the first time, I know I'm catching him.

0:05:160:05:21

I see the finish line and I realise I've done it.

0:05:210:05:23

Thank you!

0:05:230:05:24

I may have won but more importantly

0:05:260:05:28

we've absolutely loved this challenge.
