Thank you… it’s not that I stress, but I’ve just got a very addictive and obsessive personality, which makes me become very engrossed in things… It’s a blessing and a curse! 🤣👍
For a local Mallorca rider ,(me) that goes to Tenerife 2 to 3 times during winter and spring to ride my bike , I can tell you , roads and infrastructure in Mallorca are better , Tenerife is much harder in terms of raw cycling , the north is always little more dodgy weather wise but also really cool , Tenerife has some crazy gemz that in Mallorca would be impossible to match. But get your eyes in gran canaria , middle of the island 🏝️ has outstanding routes and far less cars, Tenerife in the north is crazy in ammount of cars . Specially on weekends. Anyway ,great place to ride .
I dont know how you do the editing and music blending transition but man you have quality videos. Do you do all filiming and editing? 🤔 Cheers mate! Big thanks for the motivation. ✌❤💯
The north of the island is the most beautiful and best part of the island. More scenic and more green. Lots more routes. It can get more cloudy come the afternoon as wind blows from the north, but still great temperatures. Would recommend heading to anaga rainforest next trip. Just stunning. Easily accessible from Puerto del la Cruz.🚵
Haha, Thomas you're a legend! Love the news segment comms to future Thomas! Interesting insights as always, particularly noticing you're not always present as you're focusing on the filming. No idea how you ride AND make vids. It's great you're doing unfilmed rides so you can absorb the experience. Big up yourself brother ❤️💛💚
Had a choice 6 weeks ago of either booking Tenerife or Mallorca for a 10 days of cycling, this week.. regrettably I chose Mallorca… currently 11° and rain forecast for the whole week.. gutted! Done Sa Calobra, 1st day.. Strava glitched and didn’t record a time.. 🤨.. Gonna keep going.. will make the most of this trip 💪
That’s it mate… don’t let it get you down! I’ve been away loads of time and the weather has been awful! Just keep telling yourself “I’m away on my bike, out in nature… and not at work!” 😁👍
@@TheCyclingTattooist thanks mate 🤙.. turned out to be the worst storm in 40 years! 1.5m of snow. All the hill climbs closed.. but managed to sneak up to Lluc. Repsol garage.. only cyclist on Strava for the whole day!! Check it out Lol 😂
Superb vlog Thomas, Genuinely look forward to your vlog on a Sunday and they never disappoint. Future Thomas was genius! Thanks for answering my question by the way, quite a surprise while eating my cornflakes 😂👍
your camera is amazing great clarity love your inspirational vids with such enthusiasm for cycling if ever I fell not going on a ride just watch one of your vids and I'm out in a flash even if the weather is slightly different !! but its a different world isnt it Thomas brilliant 👏
Great video! One thing you didn't mention was how good the food is. 1st time visitor to Puerto de la cruz for me this year and I was blown away by the choice, and high quality of food. For me that tips the balance to the Tenerife v Majorca debate. I'm another convert to Tenerife and particularly the north of the island, much more chilled vibe and stunning locations to ride to. Lots of loop routes possible, althought there's no warm up, straight up the volcano climb from the go! As many people say, there are no flat roads in Tenerife. It's not a place for those that don't like climbing!
Great stuff! Something you might have overlooked, it's not legal to ride bikes with earbuds in in Spain. Hence why sometimes when you see pro's training, you will hear music from a small speaker in their back pockets.
Good chatty vids…i lost battle with daylight.on mega up n over n back( 116mile, 16000ft )…only back light on. Thankfully they have bold white lines at roadside. Trippy decent to Los Gigantes. Stupid but cold n tired
I did puerto santiago to la oratava n back…too busy rush hour to go into puerto de la cruz….i didnt have a front light…hour decent in dark…desperate stupid
Great vid as always!! Having just come back from Grand Canaria! I was so jealous of you out having those epic spins !! Unfortunately no bike for . You definitely need to ride with mates much better and you can draft them too !!! Keep doing for the Brits 👍🏽
Amazing dude.. be great to see a nutritional vid on fuelling on and off the bike.. awesome BMX footage I used to BMX to back in the 80s and 90s.. I also ride a supersix and CAAD10😊🤩🏅🚴
Thankyou… And mannnn that’s a hard one… they’re all so different! If you like the hills and plenty of them, then Tenerife… if you prefer beautiful varied roads then Mallorca… Girona is best for the vibe and culture and obviously great roads too!
Shame you didn't ride the Masca loop, it has the best views imo. What a con with Teide, paying for cable car ticket then needing a permit to walk the rest. Surprised your not trying for the 500 🙂
