Are the roads open to traffic when you are riding this segment?
I hope you get to do the Grand Tours Project women's only event in Saudi Arabia — sounds like a fascinating & somewhat controversial trip. (Otherwise, Switzerland will do.)
It must be said, the Grand Tours Project looks top-notch.
I absolutely love everything cycling and would be in heaven on one of the GTP tours, but when I saw the cute little roadside picnic tables I was sold.
Love watching your adventures….. but wish you would change to kilometres and metres, like the rest of the world. Most people who watch your channel don't understand miles 😢
Love it!!!! You guys are great!
Kyle doing great things in Italy! Way to represent!
I am putting your videos in my WATCH LATTER playlist so I can get to them as I get time. Excited to see your latest adventure, thankyou!. I will save this for tonight when I have dinner 🙂
Do you use GO-Pro? Did you know Go Pro has voice commands! I just found this out and want to use mine on the bike to make a few bike videos. you just say, "Go Pro, take photo,… Go Pro Start Recording, Go Pro Stop Recording.."…. anyway just a tip if your using one, thought you might have been. Keep having a ball!
I asked before if Kyle got merch and you said in an upcoming video .
You got the best souvenir 😂
Grand Tours has put on the excursion of a lifetime! I'm amazed by the VIP passes to Giro and you even had a private chef for the lunch break😮
Knickered! Great stuff as usual😊
Buck Rogers in the 21st Century !
Ede Harrison is nearing the finish at All Points North. She will get first. Amy seems to be struggling, but she has passed all the controls and is heading toward the finish. She might drop to third overall since Jaimi Wilson has passed all the controls and is nearing the finish, too. The two ladies took different paths during the competition. But Jaimi it seems skipped one of the mandatory rest stops which would get her a 3 hour penalty. Is Amy more than 3 hours behind Jaimi? That's the question.
You don’t need a TT bike for time trials. All you need is a road bike, especially as there are plenty of road bike’ only TT’s. Helps to have good legs and plenty of carbs on board.
Brilliant Video Amy.!
Well done to you both – very impressive.
Ciao ciao
riding the same tt with a road bike is not riding the SAME TT !
Congrats on 17th place at APN24 Today at 50mile crit also in the rain in New Jersey
With all the eating, I am surprised you guys get the miles in 👍
Kyle was brilliant in this the shaving of the legs and saying about the pros taking people's KOM 🤣🤣🤣🤣 love the excitement xx
