You need to be getting in touch with the folks at the Zwiftcast. They are looking for a female Zwifers perspective to be a part of the show. You would be perfect for it.

Ooooh I like the sound of this!!! Thanks for the info Steve :)

Hi Katie, Thanks for the mention in the video (aka MrsNesbitt) It was so great to see you while we were having fun on The Grade vEveresting it brought a smile to all our faces to chat with you. Have a great trip in the Pyrenees already loving the new videos of your travels. Look forward to bumping into you again in Zwift if its not on The Grade the Radio Tower ;)

Good to see you keep riding!

The wind makes you strong Katie! We had 20-30 mph winds and temps in the high 30s to 40s!

I always find indoor cycling a lot more difficult than outside. I struggle up climbs I can do outside (I have recorded some of my favourites) and sweat buckets. I have cooling fans pointed at me and have tried calibrating the bike several times but I just find it tougher. You are right about the wind this year, it’s been irritating in the UK. Very few calm days.

@Desperado070 12 дней назад

@@John64125 Because biking in general is a mind game. That is why it is also easier to drive with others and you will even output more watt compared to alone, it is wierd how the brain works.

I love that you drink maple syrup from the container. I have the same syrup from Costco here in Canada and use it on many foods. We use Discord when riding on Zwift and have as many as 20 people all on the same server. We chat more on Discord when riding on Zwift than we do while out riding. Great video of the climb, now I know what to expect.

@MatthewSpurr 6 дней назад

Thanks for the maple syrup tip. I worked out that my usual 30g of carb gel can be replicated with 2 tablespoons of that with pretty similar carb and kcal amounts. Only per 30g carb intake it only costs around £0.50 with maple syrup. Decent for at home on the trainer, save me a tonne of money - ta Katie!

Katie - love the way you get after training…

@edstorey4675 8 дней назад

Thx for the video. Intrigued by the idea of indoor training. Living in an area where it’s terrifying to road ride( American roads and drivers) I really feel hamstrung.

@shoey1984 12 дней назад

I’m gonna have to try that maple syrup I’m doing a Costco run at the weekend

I think since Julliet usually has a flask with her on bikepacking trips of some sort of "spirit", It would be fine for you to have a flask of maple syrup. I will not judge.@KatieKookaburra

Way to grab those polka dots! I’ve not tried the grade yet as I almost always ride outside in summer (US here..). The alpe is my fav climb on zwift, followed by box hill. Ven-top is just no fun; only done it once and found it harder than Ventoux IRL…

How Do we join your group ride on zwift? Times and dates??

@kevinlyon9501 12 дней назад

Certainly won't be a shortage of up in the Pyrenees. Well at least the grade sounds better than doing an ftp.

@ReeseCup45 9 дней назад

How often do you ride? Like how many days a week do you go on your road bike rides?

The number of times I’ve thundered along thinking I’m one hell of an athlete only to turn round and find out the wind has been my friend but now hates me.

Costco in the U.K.? Nice....Peak Performance is THE route to do The Grade. If you are into maximum punishment, ride Oh Hill No! The Alpe du Zwift and Ven-Top are as accurate as possible reproductions of the real life rides.

@starlitshadows 12 дней назад

Yeah I had no clue Costco was in the UK too

“If I had to go out side and do it, I wouldn’t do it.” About says it all that’s the difference between an enthusiast and a racer.

@KatieKookaburra 8 дней назад

Absolutely - I’m defo not a racer :)

@sillypuddystl2907 7 дней назад

Keep up the good work!😊

@eashtalks 9 дней назад

Another great video. I noticed you aren’t riding your Tacx Bike, is that because you’re using the bike you’re taking or do you prefer your bike on the trainer to the dedicated Smart Bike?

@KatieKookaburra 9 дней назад

Personally for turbo sessions I prefer the movement you get on the 2T or the 3M. But if I was racing, or wanted to share a turbo with someone else in my family then the bike would be preferred. Also if you don’t have a spare bike for the turbo or don’t want to take yours on and off every time that’s defo a consideration :)

@MartyAckerman310 12 дней назад

Does anyone else get motion sickness from Zwift? I think it's because the bike's stationary but my mind's tricked by the movement on the screen.

You should have kangaroos in the room with you, not that it matters but your last name reminds me of kangaroos for some reason.

I personally like the new climb and how they built in an FTP test. MrsNesbitt is a machine lol, they're one of the "Zwift celebrities" that I'm convinced are really just advanced bots 😂

Have a Brilliant Fantastic time in the Pyrenees Katie. 🏔 Please, no dropping the Go Pro off the handlebars, ! :( ( Mount Ventoux !!! ) Giving us all an ❤ attack, thinking you had come off & crashed ! Enjoy those views ☀️
