Rained all day twice this week, (Thursday now), so it looks wonderful in December where you were. All of my trips somehow end up with one of those rides where we're legging it through the gloom at the end of the day trying to make the hotel before being swallowed up by darkness. Then the magical, restorative powers of beer and hot food. Keep them wheels turning, Josh.
Really enjoyed this video. I haven ride the roads around Kalamata, and would say that the ride from Kalamata to Sparta should be on everyones bucket list rides.
Freddie took Art History in college. Nice video Josh. You videos get better with time. Like fine wine.
Epic ride, nice video, love it.
Thanks lads very jealous chapeau 🤙🍻
Being on the road makes for exciting adventures
Good to see Ryan Sidebottom has taken up cycling.
Great group of guys and one of your best vids. Thanks
beautiful trip. i am envious. :D
amazing!!!
You guys could take this show to Sicily. Lots of Greek temples there also.
I have family in Athens, and have visited the Peloponnese several times in the past; it’s beautiful. Do I trust this is going to be on the Glorious Gravel list for next year? Also how did you find the vegan options? I understand Athens has become a lot more progressive in recent times. Cafe du Cycliste is a good sponsor btw - I am currently testing one of their audax jerseys and it’s amazing. Cheers!
Nope not part of the Glorious Gravel events but is a mega spot for cycling. The vegan options were pretty good. Always something in the supermarkets, very good restaurants in Athens and good options in non veggie places in the Peloponnese.
@@Josh-Reid Sorry, i wrote that comment before watching it all the way through (and engaging my brain), and i realise this was all road riding! Looks brilliant, I am going to Athens next year - would love to do some riding there. Btw you were brave to ride out of Athens… terrible roads/drivers.
Having been born in Athens, having lived there most of my life (almost) there and in Kalamata, having driven through the roads of Athens you've used, can I just express my awe for the size of your b*lls for riding there?
Chapeau!
Nicely produced video Josh, what time of year is this? Summer would be brutally 🥵
Summer would be brutal. It was November so pretty perfect for some winter sun.
Great Video! I am planning a similar trip in May. Is your route available on komoot?
A great trip
Choco big FTW!!!! 🤣
What’s your take on a surly long haul trucker touring bike?
Hi Josh, how did you arrange for storage of your bike boxes whilst you were touring?
We contacted a hotel and they were happy to store the bikes for us whilst we went touring and then stayed at the same hotel at the end of the trip.
7:33 ... 2980M elevation in Greece ... more than the highest mountain in Greece, Olympus, ... those are not bicycles it's Icarus airline
2980m is the total elevation of the days riding. Sorry if it’s confusing.
Good views of Greek countryside. They're a bit too fond of their own faces.
