Cycling the Pyrenees Part 3: The Final Challenge?
The final three days of our epic journey across the Pyrenees! This is where everything came together – the hardest climbs, the most remote landscapes, and the moment we had been pushing for since the very beginning.
From Tarascon-sur-Ariège, we took on the toughest day of the trip, battling through a total whiteout on the Col de Pailhères, only to descend straight into a raging thunderstorm and set up camp in the rain. Day two we crossed over into the region of the Pyrenees Orientales, a sign that the end was near, but not before crossing some of the wildest, most remote sections of the entire mountain range.
Then, the final test: the Col de Palomère – a relentless 19.5 km climb. But from the top, we could finally see it – the Mediterranean! After weeks of riding, this was the moment we’d been waiting for.
Join us for this final chapter as we push through exhaustion, unpredictable weather, and towering climbs to reach the finish line. Will we make it?. 🌊🚴♂️

Magnificent and inspirational Tour de Force you two – Congratulations 🌟🌟
Very well put together guys ,editing first class , and the ride wasn't to shabby either . thanks for sharing
I loved your descriptions of the cols and was amazed by how different they could be within the same mountain range. The col de palomere looked a stunning climb…. But maybe I’ll leave off any panniers!
I so enjoyed watching all 3 episodes of your journey. I’m intrigued as to where you both shall adventure on 2 (should that be 4?) wheels next!
