I'm in guardamar (south of alicante) and the weather is awful down here aswell, the locals say its the worst in years so not just girona, it's really unusual this time of year 👍
Really enjoyed this whole Girona series mate, was brilliant to see a new place and the whole culture around there looked immense. On the list to visit thanks to these videos! Glad you had a good time despite the rain

have been living in Catalunya for 2 years now, and these two weeks are the worst I've seen, including the winter!
I agree with George Currier , I live inland from Alicante and its been the worst winter I've known in 12 years of living out here. You were just unlucky with the weather Ed . Glad to see it didn't put you off , come back out again when the sun's out , it's a stunning country to cycle in .
Completely unrelated to this video but is it me, or is the posture of female riders in general really different from male riders? Every time I see female cyclists it seems to me that they ride with a hollow lower back, whilst most male cyclist ride with an arched back.
Ed, When is the Epic Climbs kit going to be available?, Great Video by the way 📷📷📷📷📷📷
You guys (& gals) always look so eeeasy on your bikes whether you’re climbing or descending 👌 Love it that you get a kick out of seeing World Tour riders out & about – whereas some of us would be blown away seeing YOU about & about! 🤩😂
Roll on the next one Ed – we were unlucky with the weather for sure but still made the best of it! Bit upset my risotto and french toast never made the cut mind ha
Glad you enjoyed Ed. Girona is on my list to visit – even just for a long weekend. Only problem with going back to places is that there are so many other places to explore aswell.
That said i still really want to go back to Bourg D'Osains – more to do there for me…….lol.
What bits of kit are you recommending then Ed 😁
Blue long sleeved top is my favourite one 👌
raining here in Extremadura, west Spain, more rain all week. Usually March is not as bad as this
I'm headed there in June for 2 weeks, come join me I will have a spare room
Any tips on places to stay in Girona? Do you think it's hard to get an apartment? I'm thinking of moving for 2 months this year! Love your videos, Cheers!
