Any excuse to get up into the mountains is good by me, but to be able to enjoy cycling, photography and the Tour de France all at the same location is just EPIC!!!

Epic episode John, we really felt immersed in both the mountains and the atmosphere of the tour. Your energy and enthusiasm for the tour and mountains is infectious 👍

@johnlong3214 Год назад

Why do cows wear bells? . . . . .because their horns don't work! Sorry. .👍

@NomadicTreks Год назад

I love this sort of content John , you can lose yourself in it. As photographers you’ll understand why we like this , it has everything worth looking at. Best wishes Helen and Martin

@MrSnowMen Год назад

Stunning Views, Glad you got there a day earlier, Lots of good parking stops were taken already. Did I say "Stunning Views," WoW Someone even shouted out JOHN on your way up. If there were a speed camera on the way down. "CLICK" Speeding fine. LoL Glad your enjoying it. Take care and ride safe

@GadgetJohn Год назад

Yes, there were a few of our subscribers there on the stage, we had a a good chat with them.

Stunning views. Seeing the sunset was amazing. Loved it all. Thank John.

A lovely and awe inspiring video to watch from a RAINY Manchester...... hope you're both having an epic TdF

Hari OM Fantabyoulush, John!!! Crikey though, mate, hope you have some extra brake pads with you for the MiRider! YAM xx

@bounty1616 Год назад

Fantastic, the cow bells were quite relaxing lol. You really make your MiRiDER work for you. Love the people on the road side encouraging you. The night shots and the morning shots were brilliant, can see why you like the mountains. Nice to have the slower pace of the race to see the cyclists. Fantastic x

@helenandjohnsadventures Год назад

Sooooooooooooo envious of your bucket hats, lol. Oh, and the lad with the sack for the bottles and food bags - genius!

@beepythevellfire Год назад

WOW! I forgot to watch this one when I got the notification but gosh, brilliant! What gorgeous scenery and I LOVED being taken along for that bike ride, the descent looked exhilarating. And scary. 😅 Thank you so much for these beautiful videos. That sunset was incredible. ❤

@anniescolourfullife Год назад

Awesome video with absolutely stunning scenery and photography. Wow the mirider performed exceptionally well both going up and coming back down. Many thanks John for sharing it all with us great

@gordonsummers8471 Год назад

Thanks for the great video of the TdeF . Brought back great memories of my visits in the 1990’s. 🎉❤😊

@sallydacre438 Год назад

Wow! Absolutely loved this episode ❤️. The drone shots were awesome. The sunset epic, just brilliant. Wishing I had been there too! That little bike is incredible . Shame it's so expensive. You certainly deserve a discount for showing off it's capabilities. I'm wondering if it could tow a trailer for my 2 little doggies. Mountains are so beautiful but the windy narrow roads are a bit of a challenge. We'll done John x

@Solo50plus Год назад

Wow the light and the sharpness of the camera. The shot 4:39 does not look real...it looks like a green screen 😯🥰

@travellingtaylors8352 Год назад

Absolutely loved this. My favourite parts are your little haunts out on your mirider. I’d love to get one for our van but think the hubby would kill me if I bought another expensive gadget. It would be awesome though! 😊

@traceystickland-mottram8021 Год назад

Wow what a great vlog John. Really captured the atmosphere, the beauty of the location.

@TOBY_AND_LUCYS_ADVENTURES Год назад

Love the cow bells it reminds me of Switzerland. Watching your tour de France is better than the TV footage

@GadgetJohn Год назад

@48counties19 Год назад

Loved every minute of that. Unless you've been up a mountain, you've no idea how fricking steep they are. I take my hat off to the lads who cycle up there and to you for demonstrating the grandeur of the mountains and the excitement of the day.

@sarahbertram2219 Год назад

Loved this even though I don’t like cycling!

@ianbasson8367 Год назад

John, the sunset scene was tremendous. To see the sun setting and the peaks poking through the low clouds must have been amazing. Worth all the effort to get there for the exhilarating ride back down. As for the tdf , the atmosphere and camaraderie of the crowds is brilliant.

@gillianspedding4910 Год назад

Really enjoy the race, got me hooked I’m glued to the telly!👍

Your bike ride was awesome!WOW

@colinjones9377 Год назад

Great views and that is sum bike 🚲

@adamsher86 Год назад

What a great vlog John! The scenery there is amazing and the way you capture everything is something else. You took quite a number of shots on your iPhone… which one do you use these days to get such great photos and video? Your mi-rider is something else too but I’d be too scared to go the speeds you were on it, that’s for sure 😂. Keep on at it!!

@GadgetJohn Год назад

Thanks, I’m used to the Mirider now & find it very stable and comfortable. My phone is used for at least 50% of all my videos and it’s the iPhone 14 pro max.

@jimjeffries8804 Год назад

Absolutely stunning,!!!❤

@krbiker71 Год назад

Breath taking views ⛰️

@EVDaysOut Год назад

Another fantastic video, John. It was your videos of riding your MiRider in the mountains last year that persuaded me that a folding bike with cute tiny wheels could cope with our Welsh hills and forests. I bought one in November and not regretted that purchase. The scenery brought tears to my eyes. Sad to see Cav going past. Heartbreaking ending to his final Tour.

@GadgetJohn Год назад

The bike is amazing considering its tiny size. The day we saw Cav and then to find out what happened took us from an amazing high to a real low, I really hope he comes back for another year.

@pamchurcher8833 Год назад

Another great video glad it cleared up for you ❤

@jefftrueman9990 Год назад

Thanks for doing this, another insight in to Le Tour and van life. After the riders have passed, are you able to watch the stage on tv? If so, please could you explain how to do this?

@GadgetJohn Год назад

We stream the Tdf as it’s shown live on Eurosport to keep up with the action.

@neilheathercockerell8911 Год назад

I’ve been up to 40 mph down hill, but on the flat I can pedal up to around 23mph comfortably.

@hazelcameron9503 Год назад

I was intrigued to know whilst watching your video, do the racing cyclists have to breathe in the fumes of the preceding cars and motorbikes? Thank you.

@GadgetJohn Год назад

Yes, but they’re all new vehicles so don’t emit any nasty smoke.

@libellula3313 Год назад

Some amazing shots John, love the sunset. Thanks for the coverage. Great drone filming. I don’t notice the bells anymore, I love them, lull me to sleep the Perpignan side of the Pyrenees to you. From Jo in France 🇫🇷

@lizstone3353 Год назад

Absolutely stunning 🤩. We love our MiRiders too and take ours in our Sprinter campervan folded up under the bed. We bought them thanks to your recommendation. Thanks John 😊👌

@davidduval-hall449 Год назад

Wow brilliant photography John I was spellbound enjoyed every minute look forward to the next vlog.

@nealeburgess6756 Год назад

That scenery was amazing. The atmosphere and cameradery must have been very special. I am looking forward to going into the French Pyrenees at the end of August for a motorcycling holiday with my son. Thank you for the preview.

@MuddyDuck... Год назад

Wow - what an epic upload ! 👍 Breathtaking mountain scenery, a beautiful sunset, stunning drone footage - and you tanking down a mountain road at over 30mph on your tiny wheeled bike... That caravan was amazing as well - loved the big fruit and chicken-mobiles. You certainly chose a great spot to watch the race, with the riders so well spread out. Just hope you didn't run out of crisps, beer and donuts...😂 Keep up the great work...

@vivienne3757 Год назад

Brilliant video, loved that sunset, goodness that ride back down seemed bit fast😂😂😏thanks again for some great footage

@susangoodall5037 Год назад

Riding your bike through through the mountains. Your as free a a bird John...Happy times ❤

@karenholdaway8284 Год назад

Great video! What speed did you get up to coming down? I am a right wimp downhill on my bike, i was getting dizzy just watching you😂

@Rob.1340 Год назад

👍👍🚐🚐😎

@sallydavis1345 Год назад

Love the cow bells! It sure sounded like you were going faster than 33 mph on your bike. I was nervous when you were coming down but you did an excellent job. So fun to watch the riders go by. And being above the clouds is so interesting. Thanks for the entertainment.

@asaandthemarchharepart2903 Год назад

Fabulous one John. Mountains are definitely the best place to be. Cycling along the route was epic. Especially with all the wonderful people. Makes it so special. Picked the best time to do it as well. Shame it was not the same as le tour came past. What an experience though
