Not sure if anyone else has mentioned this, but you have done a great job with the music too!. The whole series has been informative and inspirational.

[@Geocycling1993]

Thank you so much for you comment and for watching the series :)

[@jeffmarlow1780]

These have been great videos. I love your joy at reaching spain.

[@Geocycling1993]

Thank you :) I'm happy you enjoyed the videos!

This was a relaxing enjoyable series to watch, I’ve watched all them over two evenings. It’s great seeing the landscapes change from the vast farm land of northern France to the forests and hills of central then onto the more arid river valleys of southern France. My family have a 2 home near Cahors ,Dordogne. The places in your vids look so familiar. Fair play to you soldering on even though you were sick! Most would of given up. Inspirational. Look forward to more vids. Thanks and all the best

[@Geocycling1993]

Thank you :) I'm really happy you enjoyed the videos! Although there were tough moments, the good ones outweighed them haha. Same to you too.

Fantastic achievement and another great video and thanks very much for taking the time and trouble to edit and post. Looking forward to the next one.👍

[@Geocycling1993]

Not a problem! Thank you for watching the video and for your positive comment :)

[@tonypaddler]

I was smiling along with you as you giggled your way into Spain ! 🙂 I’ve really enjoyed your videos and sincerely hope you do another trip soon. Cheers 👍

[@Geocycling1993]

Thank you so much! It was an emotional moment haha :) I have a few plans for the year and hopefully a much bigger plan for next year, which I'll talk about soon :)

[@tonypaddler]

@@Geocycling1993 that's great, looking forward to the videos!

[@markl2815]

Well done mate Watched them all now. I live in the Lot valley in sw france so I know a good bit of the route you took. Tbh, the entry to Spain that way ain’t the prettiest at the border through La joncara but you got there. Watch your arse in Spain around Barcelona etc … can be a bit bandit territory Anyway, well done

[@Geocycling1993]

Amazing! Thank you for watching all the videos so far. I know what you mean about the Spanish side of the border. It gets prettier a few miles down the road which is nice. Thank you for the advice, I had a few warnings about Barcelona while travelling. Thankfully I made it through safely and returned home in good heath :) I hope you're having a nice New Year so far!

[@welshbikepackingadventures]

enjoyed this bro, well done!

[@Geocycling1993]

Thank you :)

[@paulsampson7918]

Well done great achievement

[@Geocycling1993]

Thank you :)

[@wannagobiking9071]

Nice one mate! Quite an achievement indeed 👍next time in France though, just contact me as I'd been able to guide you along nicer roads for sure: such a shame you didn't get to experience the coastal route (yet). Bring on the next episode..

[@Geocycling1993]

Thank you, that would be awesome! The nice thing is that there is always a good reason to come back :D I hope you're having a nice New Year so far!

[@davidharris4062]

Wonderful video

[@Geocycling1993]

Thank you :)

[@altern8tive]

Selfishly I didn't want this to end, was hoping you had ridden back via a different route - Austria 🤣👍

[@Geocycling1993]

Haha I also wanted to continue 🤣 I have something much bigger planned in the future, which I will update you all on soon! Thank you for watching.

[@Rolliemoho]

I did a similar route last year, my first time... Was sooo hard 😁 well done

[@Geocycling1993]

Well done to you! It's definitely not without its challenges, but very rewarding when you get to the end :) Thank you!

[@dsa5394]

I set Komoot on gravel ride all of the time. I prefer those back gravel roads over paved with cars.

[@Geocycling1993]

Oh, interesting! I can see the appeal, as the roads are quieter and safer. I am always paranoid l'm going to have a puncture with a fully loaded bike. Thank you for watching :)

[@colinwellman9480]

@@Geocycling1993 I feel the same about the back roads. Much quieter and safer and often much prettier. Punctures are a risk but with the right tyres the risk can be lessened. Well done for sticking with it, feeling ill and with some way to go isn't pleasant. Thanks for sharing.

[@Geocycling1993]

Maybe it is something I need to get into more! I'm probably being over cautious haha. I do appreciate the quieter areas though, it is so nice to be somewhere with next to no road noise. Thank you :) I appreciate it!

[@mbrylewski]

Who was the laden cyclist in front of you at the start. Did you speak to him?

[@Geocycling1993]

I'm not sure if you mean the guy from a previous video? If it is, then I recall that we didn't speak a common language so we just exchanged a hello and a smile :)
