Since starting Le Cure, Matt has cycled the equivalent of the height of Mount Everest 16.27 times, and cycled around the m25 27.40 times! That's 143,947 vertical metres and 5,151 kilometres.
I don't like climbing up mountains, but the OG Prof and Prof 2.0 both make a very good case as to why it is important to do so!
Knowing that I can retire from Le Cure at any moment having completed 10 rides…..that and the post ride beers each day...Curista camaraderie!
Four seasons in one day climbing the Telegraph and the Galibier in 2019 ....... or the near 40 degree heat climbing up the start of bloody Alpe d’Huez nearly every bloody year.....or heat stroke somewhere near Cannes in 2024!
Find someone your own pace and ride with them - it makes it easier if you can chat to someone on the way up - you will be riding for a long time each day. Also worth downloading a lot of podcasts to listen to in case you do end up on your own! Finally, under no circumstances believe Paddy or Anthony when they say that a daily dose of Green Chartreuse is mandatory....
