ROCACORBA | GIRONA CYCLING | THE FTP CLIMB

ROCACORBA! Completed it m8!
Finally getting around to uploading some of the footage from our recent cycling trip to Girona. After catching La Vuelta in Barcelona, we caught a high speed train to the pro cyclist paradise that is GIRONA. Land of Lance Armstrong and some of the most incredible road cycling routes.

In this vlog we take on Rocacorba and I attempt my first outdoor FTP test on a climb – brutal, hot, messy, sweaty, vile. But I did it.

Coming up, the coast road.

A little about me
Thanks for dropping by.
I’m your classic runner turned newbie cyclist.

For years I feared riding a bike – I was afraid of traffic, clipping in, couldn’t get my head around lycra, chamois cream and clambering up hills on a bike.

I didn’t believe that riding a bike would give me the same de-stress, mental download or sense of freedom that life as a long distance runner had given me before my knees ground to dust.

Fast forward to 2021 and picking up a second hand CAAD10 changed my life for the better. Not just physically and mentally. But also providing a sense of community and belonging – which is magic. The cycling community is just magic.

So I’m here. To hopefully inspire others to not fear the bike – the lycra, the clipping in. And come share the passion, freedom and indescribable joy that comes from being on the bike. I truly believe that the bike life is the best life and everyone should be able to enjoy it.

Come with me on some adventures.
