Day 2 of our 2000km ride, we didn't give ourselves an easy finish to the day, but being in the Alps was amazing and the feeling of reaching the top made it all worth it. Tiredness levels showing at the end!

@TheMarman57 4 дня назад

You're both amazing, and doing great!!. I don't think you will have many gravel tracks where you are so that's a plus. But take it easy on the climbs, and remember the mantra ; "shut up legs". See you on L' Alpe Duez where you will definately need to select a tiny gear, and probably a few stops before you get to the top. Remember to fuel up properly before you set off, gels help too especially at the end of the day when your energy levels are dropping. Keep the love, see you in the next vid.

On unsupported or remote rides I used to buy inner tubes with removable valve cores so I could put tyre sealant in them. It adds a few grams to rotating weight but reduces the number of punctures that need attention dramatically.

@1ytt742 4 дня назад

I think that's the same climb I did when I rode to Italy and back. I couldn't find this place called Francia on the cheap road atlas I was using (It was 2005, a few years before I got a GPS) but thought it must be important if it was signposted from so far away. I only twigged that it was Italian for France when I crossed the border... High carb diet when you're doing the miles is a recipe for trouser trumpets and rumble tums. I used to get *really* bad. I don't guff anywhere near like I used to and even then only when I eat a little bit more like I used to because of what's available.

@ivorpeachey4366 5 дней назад

Ha ha , I’m glad I haven’t got smell er vision . Great going , looked like you pair stocked up,with food for the whole trip . Moaning about hills ADH is more than 2000 ft on its own , and if I’m not mistaken that’s extra to the route.

@amy.cycling.adventures 5 дней назад
