I had no clue that Peter Sagan was involved as well. That's quite fun: training pedal boats (in Dutch: water biking) with a road bike champion.

“The Crossing” water bike challenge is fast approaching. I am sure P Charlene is already feeling those pre-event butterflies and excitement.
Do we know who exactly will make up the two teams? Will the race be broadcast in any way or updates given somewhere so that the public can follow their progress? Will P Albert be involved in any way?
Since there’s not much excitement left in the USTennis Open...we might as well follow this very challenging event and support the Princess and a worthy cause.
Thanks melina p, I will take a look there. Looking forward to this very challenging race. I’m sure the weather will also be a factor. Good luck to all involved!

P Charlene is the only lady taking part. That is brave of her to take on the guys. But I am convinced the must be very fit and conditioned, given all the training she’s done over the summer.
Let’s hope for good weather over the weekend and many pictures to capture the event.

Good luck to all the participants. Every one of them must be very, very fit to undertake such an arduous crossing.

Thanks for posting, melina p. Happy to see a link there so as to follow the race.
The distance they have to cover is 180 km, which means every team member should cover 45km. This is more than a standard race marathon. Quite the challenge.
It seems well organized, though, safety measures in place and medical assistance on hand. Bet those participating and otherwise involved are getting excited.

I see Connor McGregor couldn't compete today as he has been arrested in Corsica for sexual assault. Did someone else step in for him? Although who could step in when it requires weeks of training?

Thanks all for the lovely pictures. The kids must be so proud of their mom.
I agree, it must be difficult to find a late replacement for such an event that indeed requires months of training. To let your team down like this. It seems Gareth’s team is currently in the lead, although they have two late replacements in their team.

Princess Gabriella continues to resemble Princess Grace and Prince Jaques Princess Charlene's brother Gareth IMO. I thought Prince Albert looked very proud of his wife when he hugged her before the race began but Prince Jaques looked rather cross with his Mum for leaving him behind😂😂

I just saw that Conor McGregor has been replaced by a Guido Belinskis - I suppose they must have had back up people (who also trained) in place just anyone had to drop out at the last moment.
Seems like it's going well so far.
