    This ride was filmed in Girona, Catalunya, Spain; a cycling mecca that has been home to many professional cyclists including Ben O'Connor, Jack Haig, Esteban Chaves, Ryan Mullen, George Bennett, James Knox, Dorian Godon, Jay Vine, and at one point George Hincappie, Lance Armstrong and Tyler Hamilton. Girona is used for training for races such as the Tour de France, Volta Catalunya, Vuelta Espana, Paris-Nice, Giro d'Italia and more. Teams such as INEOS-Grenadiers, Israel-Premier Tech Pro Cycling, Human Powered Health, Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl Team, UAE Team Emirates and others use Girona for team training camps and rider testing. Girona has also become a gravel riding hotspot with events like The Traka and Traka360 being raced here.

    So much beauty. I love the fact that not only do you do all the riding, but you take great pictures too. That’s not easy to go out and start riding and then stop take pictures and start again.

    Pleasure spending the day with you Tristan. Totally jealous of all the on and off road riding on your doorstep! Your photography definitely does justice to how beautiful it is.

      Yeah it’s such a great lens! Unfortunately a bit big to carry on the bike all the time but for variety and quality it’s unbeatable.

    Cracking video. Reminded me of the first video i found your channel from..... when you did the first Rally Team photoshoot in S1 E8.
    He is absolutely right about the varsatility of a gravel bike in the UK in my opinion. I bought mine in October a couple of years ago and the first winter i barely used it due to the conditions. Once i got a second wheelset with 32mm road tyres and used it as a winter road bike / bikepacking rig i suddenly had 3 bikes on one frame.

      That’s awesome to hear. The more I ride my gravel bike the more I realize how completely capable it is. I only run 1x but with a dual chainring setup like the boys in this video it makes a road bike almost obsolete (aside from racing of course). Stoked you enjoyed the video and that you’ve been watching since the Rally days!

    Great video - beautiful scenery, interesting company, commentary on your shooting technique. Please keep more like this coming, you lost me for a while with the race oriented stuff which isn't really my thing.

    Whats that second shoulder strap your using for the camera on the bike? looks SUPER handy 👀

    • @tristantakevideo
      @tristantakevideo  Рік тому

      It’s a Rille strap out of the Netherlands. Super simple but super handy, especially when carrying heavier cameras/lenses

    What is that fidlock stabilizer strap you’re using on your canon?

    • @tristantakevideo
      @tristantakevideo  Рік тому

      Thanks man. It’s a Rille strap from the Netherlands. Works excellently.

    Tristantakevideo, nice video. Curious what strap you are using for your camera while riding and what lens you use on rides like that. I have been trying to find a strap to carry my camera but, haven't been able to find one. Thanks and keep up the great work.

    • @tristantakevideo
      @tristantakevideo  Рік тому +1

      Thanks mate. This is a Rille strap, from the Netherlands. Super small brand but the product works great. I used a range of lenses for this day but generally like shooting with 50mm and 85mm primes.

    Hey Tristan, I'm sure you get this quite often, but what is the strap you use to keep your camera stable whilst on the bile? Cheers

    where did you get that camera strap? looks like an attachment to a regular one to make it 3 point

    • @tristantakevideo

      It’s a Rille strap. Small company, excellent product.

    A lovely distraction while the boys go nuts at the Giro! 🫣
    I like your work, some awesome pictures you got. Nice to see Metal making big moves into the bike scene again. Metal can be recycled forever unlike the carbon, the market is over saturated with frames that do zero for the beautiful environment we want to keep riding in. We are all sold down the river that everything needs to light, it’s all BS for 98% of riders. Anyways, keep riding and smiling.

    • @tristantakevideo

      Agreed. And thanks so much for the kind words! 🙏🏼
