  • The final leg of cycling 5 countries in 5 days. Our first time bike packing and it was an epic trip. So much so were already thinking about packing up the bikes again and going cycling in the Alps. Over the five days we cycled 887 km and climbed over 6,000 mtrs.

    Epic ride for both of you and very well-deserved medals! Sun came out just as you finished, Cheers, really enjoyed watching the trip! 🍻

      The back story to the medal was we were doing the festive 500 but Shane had a problem and stopped around 250km. My daughter made us medals for the finish but Shane wasn’t there when I finished and didn’t get his. Once we hit the 500 km on this trip he was saying he wanted the medal 🤣 my daughter brought up the one he was ment to get originally for the festive 500 🤣

    A very inspiring trip 👍 honestly don’t know how you managed that last 190km tho. You looked like crap on the boat 😂🤣 great content can’t wait for the next trip.

    • @derekfeehan
      @derekfeehan  Месяц назад +1

      Wasn’t sure to put it in or not but I think it’s better to show how it is. It’s not always great times 🤣 I was in a world of hurt and more so I didn’t want Deb and the kids waiting all day on me. They had a good drive to meet me in Dublin. Thanks as always pal 🤙

    Should have stopped in Tim Hortons in Belfast. The coffee is like jet fuel. You would have had that trip done in no time.

    • @derekfeehan
      @derekfeehan  Месяц назад +1

      That’s a good enough excuse for me to go
      Back up there 🤣 I plan on doing the north at some stage, always wanted to cycle around it. This time unfortunately was just a case of getting down to get picked up as quick as possible.
