Just found your channel love it 👍innsbruck is beautiful we go skiing nearby in Igls thanks for the videos 🚴🏽‍♀️🚴‍♂️👍

Thank you! 😊 I’ve only ever been to Innsbruck in the summer and would love to see it in winter, I bet it’s an awesome place to ski ⛷🌨 Hope you get plenty of snow this year!

[@RhodySeth]

Pasta Bowl Cycle Power! What views on this one. The drone shots add a cool perspective. The rain continues to be an issue but it doesn't keep you down!

[@TheGirlGoneNomad]

Haha yes! Fuelled by pasta and pizza pretty much for two weeks straight, what dreams are made of! Yer the thunderstorms had a habit of sneaking up on us. Hope you’ve had a good week Seth!

Im impressed with your setting up the tent skills. Im talking about the new tent. He dropped it on the ground, and it's fully set up. Plus he lost his shirt. Haha 😂 Whats the new thent. An MSR what?

[@TheGirlGoneNomad]

Haha 😂 It's a unique technique! I do believe its an MSR Elixir 2 Backpacking tent. Took him ages in the shop as he couldn't decide, but eventually came out with the exact same model as the last, but in green 😊

[@outdoor_dan]

Excellent video series! Thanks for sharing your adventure. Are you able to share what campsites you stayed at from Innsbruck onwards? We're looking to do this route next week and it looks like campsites are few and far between in Italy :)

[@TheGirlGoneNomad]

Hi Dan, appreciate the kind comments thank you! Sure thing, I’ll just need to go back and check the GPX files, I will get back to you. Ah awesome, sure you’re going to have a great ride!

[@TheMarmaladeBiker]

The Dolomites look amazing. So cool that you got to cycle through them with Ali - he seems cool and fun. Where will part 3 take us?? More croissants please.

[@TheGirlGoneNomad]

Ali is gathering quite the fan club. He certainly is the epitome of coolness. Part 3 is coming soon, where Ali will star once more.

[@TheMarmaladeBiker]

@@TheGirlGoneNomad can't wait to see this!

[@johnrobertd748]

A question about what you packed? You do a bicycle tour in the bike packing style, and it doesn't look like you have much.

[@TheGirlGoneNomad]

It's taken some trial and error on the packing front. Defiantly over packed on my first trip! Try to ride light-ish. It was easier as it was warmer to travel light. We shared out the tent. I had a sleeping bag and mat system. Think I had two cycling shorts, several tops, least one pair of long trousers and a warm layer. We bought a lot of food on the way which saved weight. Are you planning to do a similar route this year?

Wow

[@TheGirlGoneNomad]

Thanks

[@WyeExplorer]

hey, great to be put up by an Italian the moment you roll your wheel into the country and there's Pizza and ha Pasta to make the going harder. Wow, good on you guys for pushing on - wet and cold. I always say we're waterlings and not earthlings so much. I agree with your partner there Betty. Well, good to get into town and explore. I think you found a nice trail in the end. All the best. Mark

[@TheGirlGoneNomad]

We ate so much pizza! And pasta, I love Italian food so I was in heaven! As we crossed the Alps there seemed to become a daily pattern of warm days and stormy nights, thankfully the new tent was watertight!

[@WyeExplorer]

@@TheGirlGoneNomad As soon as you crossed the border then Betty it was food on. Ha ha! With unpredictable weather good to get that new tent.

[@TheGirlGoneNomad]

@@WyeExplorer Always food on the brain! 🤣 Can't beat constant snacking whilst on the move. Yes was very happy to have a waterproof tent in the end!

[@WyeExplorer]

@@TheGirlGoneNomad Yeah, I agree Betty gotta keep our energy up and it might as well be good. Good to hear of the tent.

[@daniellovett6213]

Very inspiring and fun,glad you're not making it look like a race like a lot of videos.👍

[@TheGirlGoneNomad]

Thanks Daniel, we liked to take it all in and have plenty of pit stops for pizza and gelato 😊 Really glad you enjoyed this one!

[@TalesFromAbroad-SJ]

I went on a bicycle trip two years ago in the Dolomites, it was so awesome! Nice video guys and what a beautiful hike at the end. I haven't seen this part of the Dolomites before.

[@TheGirlGoneNomad]

Ah awesome. Where in the Dolomites did you cycle? It’s a fantastic place isn’t it, definitely want to go back to explore more! Thanks for watching really glad you enjoyed it.

[@jaheemhalsey]

Hey I'm just wondering whereabouts you leave your bike when you explored the mountains by foot? I want to do a solo bikepacking trip and am just worried about how to leave it somewhere without it getting stolen. Thanks!

[@TheGirlGoneNomad]

Hi there, I can completely understand, that’s certainly a worry I’ve had. We were staying at a campsite in the Dolomites so we left them chained up by the tent on our pitch. But I know some sites have bike stores where you could leave them. If you are wild camping it could be a little trickier, sometimes bus and train stops have a secure place you can store them. Hope this has been some help? If you needed any campsite recommendations just let me know, I’d be happy to share the ones I’ve used 😊
