Super nice. I have friends who moved to the Basque area and I have a friend who used to race a bit in Spain 30 years ago. Trying to see about getting a group to go ride some mountains. When you live in the American Midwest that is what you dream about, haha!
So.. did anyone else see the Chris Froome Quadlock ad conveniently at around the 6 minute mark? lol
Amazing videography, Francis! Spain’s definitely in the top of my list for the future! Such a cool place to ride your bike 🚲
Anyone else think when Francis is a little more beardy he could almost be another Yates twin?
bonne route les boys
Lawrence will be "up around the corner" this whole trip… right?
Hey Francis, who makes your bike box? Looks slick.
Aquarius looks awesome. Love that in my bottle if I could get it state side.
Chris is a bit black clothed for safety especially with no rear lights. That light coloured jersey Francis is wearing is much more visible on those roads. Black or dark colours is ok for gravel biking. I agree the fresh produce is good in Spain my only gripe was the choice of food types other than Spanish was limited in the Supermarkets. You do find a lot of diverse food choices in the UK much like in Australia, Canada and the US.
Did you use the eurovelo 8 route from Murcia to Cartagena (goes through el Valle del Sol)? I was there about 2 weeks ago and it's not bad! Will you be heading to Granada??
What wind in the microphone???
🔥 dream team
My question would be “ any issues with bike security & taking bikes inside hotels, thanks 🙏
They don't have Aquarius in the UK?
Really makes me giggle that you like Aquarius so much haha! Good luck with the trip 👍🏻
Love this content Francis — great reminders of your Tour Down Under! Cheers from Aus.
Candy without gluten must be the most underrated advertisement strategy :p
Spain, I love the place, mind you I am biased as the family has a villa over there, you might of passed Playa Flamenca. Anyhoo, Murcia, you must not have cycled in to the Old Town, 100% traditional Spanish. Bravo.
what is the brand of glasses your friend is wearing in the video? Nice vid btw
You guys continue to keep me inspired. Did a week in alicante up round Costa Blanca last year a week after seeing your videos with Jimmi. Francis you are THE KING OF LUGGAGE
You've got a strong view for shaved legs, but you don't follow Chris in shaving forearms. ?
A owl
What brand/make is the food bag Francis has on his bars?
Always keep your food pouch clean. I reckon it was a festering food pouch that did for my guts on TCR.
My question is who is the strongest rider? And do you find it makes bike packing tricky if one rider is faster?
I 'ave a question for your Q&A Francis. Electrolyte drinks during cycling, but what's the best recovery food?
MURCIA is a nice place, bold claims Francis!
It's like saying Slough isn't great…
Looking forward to the daily videos in advance of my own similar adventure later in the year.
I will be running a very similar Tailfin set up as you (Aerofin + 2 panniers) which leads me to ask an incredibly dull Q for your Q&A – how did you transport the bags/luggage from the UK? Assume the bags don’t fit into the bike box so do you put them into a single disposable hold bag or something else?
Oh, and how is Chris mounting his front light?
Is it just the British that call the coast the sea side?
Where the hell is Chris's luggage?? I carry more than that on century rides.
And more scenery and less selfies plz. We can still hear your comments.
Glad u said about Lawrence as I was wondering if you fallen out on day 1… 🤪
How's the MET Rivale compared to the Manta? Is the Manta worth the extra ~90 euros?
Hi guys, have you posted the full route anywhere?
4:35 Loz and loz?
5:52 Was that an Jeremy Clarkson impression?
Was the komoot link posted?
Could you do a video or part of q and a about planning these trips?
