    Katie, I climbed the Tourmalet a few years ago and was completely exhausted at the top - you look so fresh at the top of those climbs! The descent is definitely the best part! :) I am loving your uploads for this trip, amazeballs! :)

    Alpe d'Huez, Croix de Fer and Galibier all in one week, that's some break! Love the reference to Romain Bardet and the distance between normal human beings and the pros.

    Hey Katie, thanks for the amazing footage from your climb up the Telegraphe & Galibier…..wowwww…..just awesome! I’m leaving for the Alpes on 29 Aug and am planning on doing these climbs as well as the Alpe D’Huez, Roseland and Croix de Fer. My base will be 6 days in Bourg d’Oisans and 6 days in Bourg Saint Maurice. Could you tell me what you use to film, photography and document your rides while you are riding. I would really like to be able to capture the beautiful of these climbs and would appreciate any suggestions that you have….thank you!😊

    @JohnJohnson-lu9we 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Katy, following your rides, but these latest ones are close to home for my son and I. We have been staying in Bourg d' Oisans now, for the last 5 years, and my son Andy has been riding he passes. He ahs done all of the ones you have done this year, and yes they are amaazing. He's planning to do the Alpe and the Telegrapgh /Galibier this year, along with the Madwlaine and the Lacets, and also the Sabot. Imyself get an e bike and have a go at the Alpe, or probs part of it. We are also going up the Meije cable car to the top station, and tot the Loteuret to get out yearly suppl yof honey. Dont know how long you have over there, but the Grinon is an excellent climb, and the Izoard from Guillestre. We are then going back down to Malaucene to ride the Ventoux for the umpteenth time, including the 'Cingles ' club where he did all three sides in one day, as a Fred Whittoner it's a very hard day. How's the weather at the moment, we are there from the 9th July.

    • @KatieKookaburra
      @KatieKookaburra  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have.... I am rubbish at it haha. I did give it a go but my hands were SO sore! And I've always been a rubbish climber as in trees. I'm good on a bike but not so good on a wall. I did always want to be Jet from Gladiators though! :)

  • @stephenbetley9596
    @stephenbetley9596 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yeah, I thought Croix de Fer from the south was harder. But still a beast. Shame you didn't do the Lautaret decent. Wide main road 20k. Next, the dolomites and the Stelvio & Gavia. :)

    what a day u had!! may i give an advice? you are queen of the show, all those followers are there for you, your passion, sympathy and efforts. So we want more of you. you shouldn't carry the camera. Someone else should. is your boyfriend with you? why he is not carrying it? we would like to see u pedaling up those hills and telling us how you feel. You are the main protagonist. All the best.

    Have you thought of any bother bikes that you might buy ....In am thinking of buying a Spitfire Titanium bike from Planet X. .comes with aero wheels and Shimano Ultegra/8000. Mainly to go bike packing around Scottish Islands Arran and Mull ..because it has points for racks and titanium frames are really smooth ride ..Have you seen Durianrider video on best wheels ..He says Spinergy zero lites are the best for climbin says nd hubs are bombproof. ..Best is you can have a choice of different colours of Spokes ..Durian Rider has the green spokes one's...Avoid Mavic wheels and Hubs as he was saying are rubbish. ..Spinergy wheels .com...only you have to order them from USA. . $799//£611//..!! You will climb even faster Kk...
