    Congratulations! Your video brings back so many of my memories from 2023... especially the concrete wall Murtas up where I got heatstroke and desperately looked for shade... Passed Trevelez early moning and will never forget the last unbelievable smooth tarmac meters on the entrance to Capilera

    Congratulations to you and everyone else that crossed the start line. Many years ago Sherry when I was a little boy on tv there was a cartoon character called The Mighty Atom and they had magic powers to do anything they wanted to do. I think you must be related because its amazing the difficult races you do. Keep doing them Sherry and you will never get old.

    Congrats on an OUTSTANDING effort . To just finish Badlands is an achievement. To do it under 72 hours is simply brillaint . Now put “ El Piri “ (Northern Spain) on your calendar . It makes Badlands look / feel like a walk in the park.

    @Hervé-y5h 3 месяца назад

    The sensation I prefer is when you feel you cannot push on the pedals anymore, when you cannot put any power to go on and when all is in mind. Otherwise it is too easy. Nevertheless I am a bit afraid of this situation all sensible personne has to avoid.
    Almost from the start I already want to finish because I know it will be long and tough. But kilometers after kilometers, thanks to a good bike; good technology, good tachometer I begin to enjoy because I know I will be sad when I will finish. Today, sunday, I rode 92 km on Mountain bike among racing bikes, wthout drink. My average speed the first hour must have been 20km/h because of the car's circulation and traffic lights.
    The second hour it must have been 30km/h on a circuit . The third hour : 30km/h approximately on a circuit. So that, the last 45 minutes of my ride, I only did 12km/h, because I could not drink. The water was in mybackpack but I have no time to stop and open it.
    I had dry throat and legs hard as wood and I knew I couldn't drink before I finished otherwise it would mean I agreed with urban stress. I had no strengh not at all but only pure energy.
    Compared to the Urban stress, I find the spanish desert is a cute and sweet place.
    By the way, when Miss Cardona crashed, the earth blessed her. In a brutal way, surely, but a real blessing. I don't wish her to craxh, off course, but that happens
    And I guess Gereon didn't sleep for 43hours. It isn't ultracycling but ultra awakening.
    On the other hand I wonder if cyclists against the clock are or not a kind of modern rabbit of the cartoon "Alice in Wonderland".
    Here's something might be interesting :

    Muy bonito el video, pero solo una recomendación, yo hablo 5 idiomas por ejemplo, si estoy hablando Alemán o Inglés, si voy a mencionar una palabra en Castellano, la pronuncio en Castellano / Español, no la pronuncio como si mi idioma materno fuese el Inglés, suena muy feo, a lo largo del video pronunciabas los pueblos españoles como si tu idioma materno fuese el Inglés, suena muy feo.

      Low IQ post. What would expect to see an edurance cyclist post in their videos? Do you follow other sports? How frustrated are you when you watch a football match or something and its basically the same as all other matches played every weekend.
