Part two of this wild adventure and things get even more epic. With weather improving we were treated to some truly incredible views. Part of the wonder of this experience is that neither of us knew what the terrain was going to look like and that discovery lit me up.
This adventure was an amazing way to see my home country and doing it by bike meant we could travel over such big distances efficiently... well, when the terrain allowed. My eyes were opened to another side of life on two wheels - usually I'm a racer, always striving, always trying to improve, always looking for peak performance. This was back to basics: going from A to B, nothing else. I was lost in the moment and it was such a freeing experience. I'm already planning my next adventure. Thanks for watching!!

I was staring to feal the fear about riding the WHW in September but watching this makes me feel better. That looked epically savage but also awe-inspiring, what a beautiful country we live it. Good job youtube algorithm. Awesome ride Katy & Joe. 👏

Really enjoyed the two videos. Felt you, took me along for the journey. Initially, I thought it could be a trip for me and my wife next year but quickly realised she would not like it and not long after realised I would not be able to do it either. Well done to you both. Maybe take on some of the NZ routes next time you are both here.

Awesome Video! Rode the H550 with my son and mate back in August 2022. Did it over 12 days and found it tough but exhilarating. We took tents and decided to camp, the midgies were horrendous, right move to stay in accommodation :-). Congrats again!

Brilliant, thanks for capturing as much as you did on video, the bikes were not up to this terrain in my day. Fisherfield looks as spectacular as I imagined (have only looked across it fro the summit of An Teallach). I know the climb up from Glen Licht very well - once had to carry the bike down it as brake blocks had been worn away by Affric grit. Anyone thinking of doing this route give yourself much more time/days than you think - Katy & Joe are ultra-fit pro-racers and had long midsummer days so were able to complete each stage in daylight.

Finally finished both parts of this mamoth adventure and it was worth watching all the way to the end! I take my hat off to both of you for both getting through this epic adventure and also for keeping so cool with each other during the whole process. Really interested to hear what inspired taking on this challenge and the idea behind doing it the way that you did? Also on a very geeky level would love to have heard what your bike set up was like and how you found trying to fit all of the storage needed onto the bike... I am asuming that it is a wee bit different from racing an EDR world cup event!! Anyway massive respect to both of you and just a big thanks for a really great epic adventure!!
@KatyWinton
@KatyWinton 10 месяцев назад
Thanks for watching it all!! Joe was keen to ride it to check the route out for potentially racing it in future. And I thought it was be an awesome training camp and the perfect way to see more of my home country. We stayed in hotels etc. because recovery was super important for me to make sure I would be ready for the rest of the race season. We mapped out basically wherever we could find accommodation and used joes experience on roughly how long distances/terrain/elevation would take and then looked at whether that would be so able for us or not. I defo needed him there as he was far better at tracking our progress. In terms of set up, it was pretty chill the bike was just heavier. The seat bag was annoying because I couldn’t get my weight back past the saddle so it made for sketchy biking. I put my saddle down about 2cm, and enjoyed the faster rolling tyres over pedalling the DH ones use for enduro. 😁
