Ride around Malta! Ergh. It was all going so well… until it wasn’t. We have been so unlucky on this trip haha. But for us – we can find the funny side of it.
Thanks to Garmin for supporting my channel and sponsoring this video. These hacks are SO good and didn’t know about either of them until this trip. So enjoy.

So your bike arrived with the pedals mounted on the crank?? I have such an allen key on my little toolset I always carry.

Not only your bike gets stolen but also your Garmin always remove mine
Chantel is a trooper!
So you prefer climbs with sheep-ises to city centers? Thanks for the Garmin info.
She has a piece of glass in her tire. Thatβs why it keeps puncturing the tube. I know you guys are experienced cyclist but inspect the tire carefully and you should find it. I had a similar situation and it was really hard to find.
Didnβt know about that map thingy. Wonder if it can be done through google maps? Thatβs useful.
Croatia is worth a try next time, even get ferries to the pretty little islands. Worth a look? Top vid again. ππ»
Youβre having tooo much fun π
I love the spontaneous craziness of this circumnavigation! I'm so glad you had fun in spite of the spanners thrown into things.
Pro tip: RideWithGPS has a road surface layer when you plan a route – Apple and Google maps aren't as keyed into that. Does the Edge 1050 discern between paved and unpaved roads? I know that's a limit on the x40 units.
Love your videos when things go tits up πππ
should try the perpilo , the 1000km circuit of sicily, much more cycle freindlythan malta
Hey Katie lapped it many times as have a house on Gozo (Which is far nicer than Malta)
