    A summer many many years ago, I had no job and little to my name really. I took a flight out of my country with my bike to meet my best friend and cycle through the Pyrenees from east to west. Our route took us eventually to Col de Port, and getting to the top we stopped in the bar/restaurant shown at 0:43. We got talking to a waiter there who told us there was a small town called Massat down the valley where there is going to be a party the following night. We camped close by the top of Col de Port that night and decided to check out this town the following day.
    We woke up at sunrise and descended Col de Port to Massat. We went to the town's municipal camping grounds and set ourselves up. Long story short; we went to that party and I met my now wife. I completed the trip with my friend then returned to Massat and spent many years living there. This road was my daily life; on the bike, in the car, in various houses of friends that show up in the video.
    I enjoy the roads in lots of your videos, but this one is special. Thanks for putting this one out!

      We stopped briefly in Massat to fill up our bidons before tackling Col de Port. What a fantastic area to ride a bike in, so many interesting single lane roads disappearing up the hillsides.
      Thank you for sharing your story, such a good one. You don't need a lot of money or planning, you just need a sense of adventure and to take a chance. Once you're on the road life has a funnny way of working out for the good in ways you could have never predicted.

      Surprising how speed gets portrayed from two different perspectives, right?! Doesn't look fast at all from up there.

    I figured you were back in the Pyrenees again, but this is the ride of which you uploaded the descent of Col de Cioula before, the video that inspired me to do that climb last month.
    I descended this Col de Port two times too last month too. The frist time after ascending from Tarascon. The second time after ascending from Massat like you did here. I also loved the flow in the descent that follows the small climb that starts pretty much where this video ends.

    Love the channel Brian. Personally not a fan of the extra circular map on the screen, or that double screen section-it's too much. Less is more, like this video of yours is just the right amount of screen clutter, imo.
