What a fantastic ride! But perhaps the silliest ending so far… very nice!
Great to see you both with miles and smiles. Julie you are never last there is always someone behind you just haven't seen them yet! More early am rides in our future I hope. Have a wonderful adventure! Bunkie
One day I’ll get to do Cap Formentor for myself for real. I’ll have to settle for watching you guys doing it. The yeh ha moment was classic, Julie’s ears were burning Mike. Great to see you so well, Julie.
Great to see all your freezing cold early mornings have paid off – a lesson for all we late risers. Magnificent example of can do determination from Julie, too. Re the car drivers, I'm guessing the majority on that route are visitors too, in hire cars, and importing their bad habits and attitudes to cyclists.
Love your content
Hope the sunshine comes out for the rest of your trip,
Hallelujah, in a none religious sense with me being an Atheist, Julie got up to ride the bike 🤪
Excellent stuff as always and well done on conquering those climbs 👍
It must be great being out on the road with so many other riders too!
Hi guys, I was up at the lighthouse this morning but I don’t leave the breakfast table till nearly ten so it was warm and sunny. Lots of traffic though. Buses and cars jamming the switchbacks coming home and so many cyclists.
Best time to do this ride is when they close it for cars.
You did it 😊 Huge kudos, especially with the year you’ve both had to deal with. Chapeau!
Just watching fitness ride #23. As you entered Hurn Lane, you mentioned Dan Lloyd, would I be correct in saying you passed his house at 48:28 ?
Should have watched for another 45 seconds! Question answered 😏
What a gorgeous ride! Great seeing you guys being “silly”!! Thanks for taking us along!
Absolutely brilliant achievement, well done 👏👏
Well done for a decent ride
I can't cycle at the moment because I got hit by a car and broke 2 ribs whilst out cycling
I live just at the bottom of there ! Not even attempted it yet .. well done to you both
Mike, when you mentioned "stripping off," I thought you were gearing up to promote your new OnlyFans channel. Seriously, I love you guys. And Julie, I am so pleased that you have made such a remarkable recovery. All the best to you both.
Those freehubs 🐝❤️🐝❤️🐝
Wonderful ride! Go Julie, SO happy you are back in beautiful Mallorca riding again! Bravo! 💯🥰
Flying out in the morning and staying in Puerto Pollensa, and plan to bag this one again. Did it last year early in the morning to avoid the traffic, at 8am the road is empty and far less stressful
Great ending now that’s your next profession, comedy duo.
