Our First Mountain Gap Challenge! | Vermont Gran Fondo
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 окт 2024
- Today, we’re riding the Medio route of the Vermont Gran Fondo, which is 80 miles and over 5,000 ft of climbing.
Vermont is located in the northeastern United States and known for its picturesque landscapes, quaint small towns, and outdoor recreational activities.
It is also home to the Green Mountains with 6 mountain gaps that includes the famous Lincoln Gap; which boasts America’s steepest paved mile.
However, we’re not riding up the Lincoln Gap as we’re probably not ready for that challenge yet. Instead, we’re riding up the Middlebury and Brandon Gaps.
The Medio route has two timed segments. The Middlebury Gap is a 2-mile segment and the Brandon Gap is a little over 3 miles. Even though the segments are short, the climbs themselves are over 5 and 9 miles long,
So let’s see how we both do!

Glad you enjoyed it!!
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Thanks Edward!
It’s so frustrating when you can’t unclip like that.
Yes! Dirt clogged our cleats from when we stopped at the first gravel sector, which prevented us from unclipping! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Of course Joy was the smart one and circled around until she was able to unclip so that she didn't fall! I'm glad I fell to my left side for a change. Sick and tired of falling to the right and messing up my derailleur 🙂
@@jasonpires82 haha! I know the feeling all too well.
I only have that happen when there is a crowd. I have since switched to egg beaters and it never happens now!
What cam do you use ?
DJI Osmo action 3
