Two STEEP Climbs You Must Ride When Cycling In Spain!

Its post 312 and I'm need of a boost to my riding mojo! So I head out on a ride taking in two of the toughest climbs in the area! The Balcon De Alicante & the feared Xorret De Cati!
Its a hard ride, my legs feel terrible, but I love it!

Hey neighbor! I live in Alicante. Mainly ride gravel, but I also did this ride for my 49th birthday. It was hard but great. I don’t use power, so it’s nice to see your telemetry for reference. Perhaps I’ll see you out there some day! Love the idea of the channel! Cheers!

Two killer climbs those. Next time I’ll go with you 🫡 Great vid.

[@daveridesagain]

Yes mate, next time for sure!

[@dtpapa1290]

Another great vid mate, the second climb is a nice walk apparently (mentioning for a friend 😜) 👏👏

[@daveridesagain]

Thank you mate.... a route for you in the future maybe 🙃

[@rpierrelouis86]

Another great Video Dave....and as an aside the inclusion of the telemetry data is great, really informative and helps convey the toughness of the ride. Could you keep it in for future riding videos?....Keep up the good work. PS: If there is one thing missing it would bench to know how hot it is...it looks warm!!!

[@daveridesagain]

Hey, thanks for the message... The telemetry is pretty challenging, it takes a long time to render the videos and lining up the footage with the gpx data is also difficult BUT if I can, I shall 😉... Thanks for the feedback, pleased you enjoyed this one 😊👍

I bet that woke the legs up 😆 Another great edit mate 👌

[@daveridesagain]

It did mate - I loved it! :-)

[@jamescoulter8413]

Nice one Dave. Can’t get over how quiet the roads seem. Like you are on a closed road. Absolutely brilliant. One day I’ll get myself down there on the bike.

[@daveridesagain]

It's unbelievable mate. Like another world.... Perfect for riding 👌 Definitely worth making the trip for. Thanks for watching 😊 👍

[@leebamber499]

Good effort pal, roads look great

[@daveridesagain]

Its an incredible place to ride mate... Thanks for watching 😊 👍

Hi Dave , loved the video . Im a brit but live between Sax and Castalla and 15 mins drive from the bottom of Xoret de Cati . The climb that you rode down from the top back down to Petrer is a really nice challenging climb .

[@daveridesagain]

Hey, thanks for the message. Yeah the road surface is great.. I'll definitely do it that way on next time. Thanks for watching 😊👍

[@MariusBert]

[@daveridesagain]

[@kubackjeee]

Great video again. This time I tried to watch with subtitles - fun fact : even Google algorithm can't understand some words 😅

[@daveridesagain]

Thanks for watching.... sorry you ( and Google ) don't understand some of my North East chat :-)...

Nice ride in great weather. How do you find the Gobik kit?

[@daveridesagain]

Thanks. Gobik is great - they have some nice designs, it fits well and is well priced. Its difficult to get in the UK, but I bought a couple of sets from a local shop. Thanks for watching. :-)
