Day 2 of our 2000km ride, we didn’t give ourselves an easy finish to the day, but being in the Alps was amazing and the feeling of reaching the top made it all worth it. Tiredness levels showing at the end!

Love you guys so natural on your vids, well done on hitting £1000
I know Ponte delle Barche! It looks like you spent the night at Certosa…you should have visited the abbey. How I miss Pavia (lovely), how I miss the mosquitoes…(not so lovely)…
👍👍👍👍👏👏👏🇦🇹💋❤️✌️
😂🎉 way to go Kyle pretty funny we can’t help but we’re just men🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ anyway we loved both of you guys you guys are fantastic
Well done guys, you are machines!
I such heat use +50 UV protection cream on your face and skin. Both of you are red ; ) You're are so. different in perception of the reality around you, Amy is like a child : )
Kyle taking the meaning of going "full gas" to a new level 😂
Congratulations both ❤😮
Well done Super humans!!
What a fantastic day, as usual another mega vid and ride.
Stinking Kyle!💩💩
Looking forward to the next one.
💪💪🏁🏁💐💐❤️🚴♀️🚴♀️🚴♀️
These are your best videos yet. Such a Herculean effort. Can't imagine how tired you must be by the end of this stage. Donation well earned!
incredible journey, can't wait to see what happens next, well done on your charity initiative!
Great effort. The Alps are stunning to cycle through. Something for the future, with all your endurance riding, would be to do a vid on nutrition with an expert specialising in big ride cycling.
Big cities are the worst when it comes to Bikepacking/tours..These days I won't even try it and will plan a route around or train through from one end to the other. If I do stay in a big city I try to plan the ride out on a Sunday morning.
When I'm climbing and my legs are gone, I shout 'come on tars' (Interstellar). It's nonense but it works!
Great was there a few weeks back coming home from lake como. Nice in the car😊
Day 2 done – you two are amazing- i love cycle touring and have stunk out many a room with cycle kit 😂 go for it day 3 tomorrow- love these videos xxx
I have a gravel bike but I hate gravel lol, I actually use it as a 'comfortable asphalt bike' 🤣 respect for doing +600 km in 2 days 👍
OMG grumpy Kyle is scary to be around 😀
YIPPEEEEE👍🏔️
Salad doesn't cut it for 5000 To 7000 calorie rides
well done …. could you give hill % thanks .
2000ft elevation in 9 miles is ungodly – Can't wait to see how you do on alpe d'huez!
Amy – if Kyle complains about a flat tube, give him a paint nick. Bye the way, beautiful nails!
Closed roads for bikes sounds like a dream.
Great ride for a great cause, well done A and K! 🚴💪
I think that's the same climb I did when I rode to Italy and back. I couldn't find this place called Francia on the cheap road atlas I was using (It was 2005, a few years before I got a GPS) but thought it must be important if it was signposted from so far away. I only twigged that it was Italian for France when I crossed the border…
High carb diet when you're doing the miles is a recipe for trouser trumpets and rumble tums. I used to get really bad. I don't guff anywhere near like I used to and even then only when I eat a little bit more like I used to because of what's available.
well done guys ,it,s amazing wat you guys achieve , and how do you not get a sore butt lolol , also better out than in i always say , also hi from New Zealand bee following you for ages love it
RideWithGPS shows the surface of roads (gravel or paved) much better than strava for planning routes. At least in my opinion… 🙂
Smashing it guys you doing so well big respect to you both 👊🏻🫶🏻🚴🚴
Vocës são namorados?
Keeping it real once again. Please don't change the way you edit your videos.
Touring, an eating event with a cycling problem.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
hahaha you two are sooo married
On unsupported or remote rides I used to buy inner tubes with removable valve cores so I could put tyre sealant in them. It adds a few grams to rotating weight but reduces the number of punctures that need attention dramatically.
Well done you two, your smashing it, that’s amazing miles and climbing efforts👍
You're both amazing, and doing great!!. I don't think you will have many gravel tracks where you are so that's a plus. But take it easy on the climbs, and remember the mantra ; "shut up legs". See you on L' Alpe Duez where you will definately need to select a tiny gear, and probably a few stops before you get to the top. Remember to fuel up properly before you set off, gels help too especially at the end of the day when your energy levels are dropping. Keep the love, see you in the next vid.
Mountain fuel 😂
Amazing journey both of you,
Thank you so much for sharing 🙂
Hi i use kamoot and have it set to road not bike touring as its keeps you off gravel tracks
Brilliant, keep your pecker up Amy ❤
wax that chain, as i have mentioned several times before.😮
Had to look up what that Fort was at 13:20 – Fort of Exilles/Forte d'Exilles. It swapped ownership many, many times after battles between the French and the Italians.
That’s an impressive climb in the alps. Well done both of you. Views looked stunning.
Well done! That route profile looks horrific, saving all the climbs for the end 😒 Plus the roads across northern Italy are dreadful. We were there in June and they're worse even than Herefordshire! Can't believe you didn't get a dog tracker though 😁
