- Not letting the rain get us down! Was nice to have some off the bike explore time too, resting the legs a little for the next 200km.

Kyle is a legend
Agreed 😅
The Royals in France... Princess Malones and Kyle Duke of Nothing-Ham...very enjoyable adventures !!! Ps: The Duke always in a fantastic sandwich shape.
Hope they gave Kyle a sweet after fixing his hand. Such a brave boy . . .
The pinkish bike you were looking at is a Vitus aluminum bike 979 mode.l I think like Sean Kelly (Irish) used to ride for the KAS team nice bike Cheers
Thank you for taking us to see the caravan, TDF and your French exploration. Hope your arm recovers quickly Kyle.
Thanks for coming along by watching 🫶
I was halfway expecting the two of you to quickly mount your bikes and join onto the rear end of the peloton there for a minute 😄 Well done for standing there in the rain for hours showing above average motivation to get a glimpse of the heroes, and it share it with us 🥰
😂😂 we wish!! Haha thank you! We were determined to see them 😅
How did you clean your cut
In a river
- Kyle is a legend
😂😂
Love the banter you both have and love the videos. Living life to the full 👏👏👏
We love to live it to the full! Thanks haha glad you enjoy them 🙌
Brilliant vlog Amy & Kyle, seeing the pros must’ve been a wonderful sight! You two looked freezing cold in that rain and hey the shower cap is a genius idea!! 🙌
Thanks!! Yes we were frozen! Haha a good old shower cap 😅🙌
A vitus 979 I have a blue one like sean kelly used when riding for Kas
Those Gore-tex jackets are fantastic.
I had to use mine a fair few times on my last trip in France and it never failed. Costs a fortune but packs up to the size of an apple and never wets out.
They are, sooo good!
New to your channel. I’m a mountain biker based in France. Recently did Les Cévennes. That is awesome. Staid at Le-Pont-de -Montvert. People are so cool.
At 63 I’m looking increasingly at a road bike or gravel bike. Recently tuned to GCN too.
Love the channel. Whatever you ride, whatever your style it’s about freedom. 😊 🚲 mountain 🏔️
Ahh thanks so much for watching!! That’s so great to hear ☺️
Ace vids, we just watched all three, bikes , glorious food, you pair….and doggies and PUPPIES!!
Brilliant as usual, and fair play amazing fitness ❤💪🏁🏁
Ahh thank you, glad you enjoyed the videos 🙌 hehe the puppies were the best bit 😍
Loving a trip with a bit of history detail! Right up my street
Glad you’re enjoying it, thanks for watching!
The bike is a Vitus, the pioneer on alloy and carbon tubing
I knew it was a Vitus straight away as I coveted that very bike in the late 1980's in Austin, Texas!! Beautiful.
Job Well Done Gang , Remember once i was thrown a full Musette of goodies , when i watched the Tour in Draguignan , Keep that bag for years to take my packing up in for work, Happy Days , Keep Safe , Paul.
Ahh nice! Bet you loved that day!!
Another great video from you both. Hope Kyle’s hand is healing. Definitely you should carry a first aid kit (Lifesystems
Light & Dry Nano First Aid Kit) is a good start plus a tube of good old Savlon is good for cuts, sunburn etc., Deffo wear fingerless padded gloves for comfort and protection if you do have a fall. Amy, your ability to overcome the bad weather and still be cheerful is impressive. The French architecture is beautiful and can see why Kyle as a bricklayer is impressed by the medieval buildings. Looking forward to your next post.
Thank you! Yes we will get one ✔️ glad you enjoyed the video ☺️
Great vid guys
Lovin those "Wacky Races" sets of wheels in the TDF Caravan ! :)
🌧 🇫🇷
🐦 🦆
Glad you’re enjoying them ☺️ yes it’s crazy! Such a big production! 😅
Great idea to take the British weather with you Amy, made you feel right at home😂Seeing the pros helped lift your spirits of course and at least it dried up eventually, great video once again😊I'm hoping to do another 100 miler tomorrow, weather is looking hopeful shall we say😉
Haha yes rain following us around 😂😂 yes nothing can get us down when the pros are around! Hope your 100 goes well!
Oh bloody Norah beat me with a stick of celery
😂😂
If you ever get fed up with cycling Amy, our dance class meets Tuesday nights . . .6.14
💃💃💃
You're right, the architecture looks amazing. Thanks for bringing is along. (Also, your bike fitter is going to give Kyle a kick in his "chamois" when you get back!)
We’re seeing him tomorrow for a bike fit 😂
Great video amy shame about the rain hope kyle is feeling better look forward to seeing your next video
Thank you! 🫶 yes he’s much better now thanks!
Really nice video, guys - love the youthful energy!
Thanks! ☺️
Thanks!
Ahh thank you so so much!
Could be fun to put Di2 shift buttons with little levers on the downtube. Lovely video. Hope Kyle's hand gets better soon.
Haha yes! Thank you, yes he’s healing well ☺️
Stretching every day is a very good habit that I haven't gotten into.
I suggest the Knees Over Toes lunge, especially for Kyle. It stretches the hip flexors and strengthens the knees at the same time.
Riding the bike and keeping the wound clean will probably help Kyle heal faster, so long as he does smash himself to pieces but I don't think you're on one of those types of rides.
We’re not always that great at stretching but try to!!
Thanks ☺️🫶
5:53 😂 made me chuckle there!
Haha a nice new ruler 🙌😂
@@amy.cycling.adventures Kyle can take that ruler to bed......... To see how long he sleeps.
Fingerless gloves for the summer, with gel padding....Ride on...😎
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching ☺️
Downtube shifta crew in da house 🦾
Yeah, love it. I really miss old bikes. Hehe, people would lose their minds if they had the gearing we used to use (53/39 x 12-25).
ok boomer 😛
Hev a Good time 🎉.
Great video, hey wear gloves, in Australia we don’t need gloves for warmth but we wear them. Sensational video.
Yes we really should! 😬 thanks glad you enjoyed it 🙌☺️
ride always safe....godbless always🙏👊👍
Thank you!
Yipee
🤣 KYLE: REPPIN'
Whats the little town called? I want to add it to a list of places i want to visit. Love the videos!
It’s Semur-en-Auxois ahh thank you!
Semur-en-Auxois = "Seumur on oak swa" approx.
I need to work on the pronunciation 😂😅
Those Pinarellos would be gone in the morning if you were in USA
Day 3, fly bite, hand, arm, and knee. How many more days have you got 😮
I use my version of a shower cap, it’s called being bald 🙂🙁 love the vlogs, food content included.
Haha glad you’re enjoying the videos!
Love them. And nice to see Kyle getting more involved. 🙂
And Antihistamine as well.....very important guys...
What is it with modern cyclists not using track mitts? Even some of the ex-pros on GCN don’t use them. Sorry but not wearing hand protection to me is just stupid. As a motorcyclist as well as a cyclist I wouldn’t dream of not wearing gloves, boots etc.
‘You live and you learn the hard way.’ Didn’t use hand protection for a longe time in racing, crashed hard, now wearing hand protection all the time 🫣
Ask Pogacar and let us know.
So by your logic, bicyclists should all wear leather gear, no flesh exposed in case of crash. Wearing shorts - knees are exposed. Knee pads? Elbow pads?
Mate, you walk on the footpath daily - it’s a daily risk - wear a helmet?
Back in my day! It was frowned upon not to wear tack mitts to the extent some road race organisers would let you take part. How times have changed.
Most cycling gloves have a terrible tight fit. For long distances, hands swell and the tight gloves cut off circulation and cause blisters. Finding a cycling glove that can adjust to the wide variety of hand shapes is often impossible for even pro cyclists.
Bonnet de douche
I have to say that I'm kinda surprised that you've got this far into cycling without carrying a first aid kit. It won't save your life but it does make any minor injuries way more comfortable.
As for gloves, I always wear them. More important than a helmet IMHO.
