I love that you drink maple syrup from the container. I have the same syrup from Costco here in Canada and use it on many foods. We use Discord when riding on Zwift and have as many as 20 people all on the same server. We chat more on Discord when riding on Zwift than we do while out riding. Great video of the climb, now I know what to expect.
The wind makes you strong Katie! We had 20-30 mph winds and temps in the high 30s to 40s!
Good to see you keep riding!
Well done wow u were working hard. Love that climb another great vlog skinny k
I always find indoor cycling a lot more difficult than outside. I struggle up climbs I can do outside (I have recorded some of my favourites) and sweat buckets. I have cooling fans pointed at me and have tried calibrating the bike several times but I just find it tougher.
You are right about the wind this year, it’s been irritating in the UK. Very few calm days.
@@John64125 Because biking in general is a mind game. That is why it is also easier to drive with others and you will even output more watt compared to alone, it is wierd how the brain works.
You need to be getting in touch with the folks at the Zwiftcast. They are looking for a female Zwifers perspective to be a part of the show. You would be perfect for it.
Ooooh I like the sound of this!!! Thanks for the info Steve :)
The weather in ireland at moment is unreal i dont have swift but i have a set of rollers
Way to grab those polka dots! I’ve not tried the grade yet as I almost always ride outside in summer (US here..). The alpe is my fav climb on zwift, followed by box hill. Ven-top is just no fun; only done it once and found it harder than Ventoux IRL…
Katie - love the way you get after training…
Watching a movie while climbing... 😂
It is just the price that keeps me away
Kookaburra? 😄 That is a feathery creature from Australia if I'm not mistaken 😂
I’m gonna have to try that maple syrup I’m doing a Costco run at the weekend
It’s the ✨BEST ✨
“If I had to go out side and do it, I wouldn’t do it.” About says it all that’s the difference between an enthusiast and a racer.
Absolutely - I’m defo not a racer :)
You had me at the swig of maple syrup 😂🍁
😂🤣🍁
I think since Julliet usually has a flask with her on bikepacking trips of some sort of "spirit", It would be fine for you to have a flask of maple syrup. I will not judge.@KatieKookaburra
Certainly won't be a shortage of up in the Pyrenees. Well at least the grade sounds better than doing an ftp.
How Do we join your group ride on zwift? Times and dates??
How often do you ride? Like how many days a week do you go on your road bike rides?
I say all this in the video :)
Costco in the U.K.? Nice....Peak Performance is THE route to do The Grade. If you are into maximum punishment, ride Oh Hill No!
The Alpe du Zwift and Ven-Top are as accurate as possible reproductions of the real life rides.
Yeah I had no clue Costco was in the UK too
Someone once said the wind is your friend. I don't know this person. It wasn't me.
@@greggsenne1268 😂
The number of times I’ve thundered along thinking I’m one hell of an athlete only to turn round and find out the wind has been my friend but now hates me.
Hahaha SAME!!!!!
Enjoy your trip.

Another great video. I noticed you aren’t riding your Tacx Bike, is that because you’re using the bike you’re taking or do you prefer your bike on the trainer to the dedicated Smart Bike?
Personally for turbo sessions I prefer the movement you get on the 2T or the 3M. But if I was racing, or wanted to share a turbo with someone else in my family then the bike would be preferred. Also if you don’t have a spare bike for the turbo or don’t want to take yours on and off every time that’s defo a consideration :)
Bend your elbows to relax your upper body
Does anyone else get motion sickness from Zwift? I think it's because the bike's stationary but my mind's tricked by the movement on the screen.
You should have kangaroos in the room with you, not that it matters but your last name reminds me of kangaroos for some reason.
Aussssssie!! :)
I personally like the new climb and how they built in an FTP test. MrsNesbitt is a machine lol, they're one of the "Zwift celebrities" that I'm convinced are really just advanced bots 😂
Have a Brilliant Fantastic time in the Pyrenees Katie. 🏔
Please, no dropping the Go Pro off the handlebars, ! :(
( Mount Ventoux !!! )
Giving us all an ❤ attack, thinking you had come off & crashed !
Enjoy those views ☀️
