The Col Collective

Few roads rival the brutality of Llano de las Ánimas, 15.7km, 2,000m gain and grades over 30%! Here’s our attempt 👉🏼 youtu.be/OGumhyEha34 Is there any harder? @friebos @cyclingcols @Pjammcycling @Strava @komoot @BandofClimbers #cycling #epicclimbs #lapalma #neverstopexploring

@robcrooks14 @friebos @cyclingcols @Pjammcycling @Strava @komoot @BandofClimbers Think I’m still somewhat traumatised by the experience 😅

@colcollective @friebos @cyclingcols @Pjammcycling @Strava @komoot @BandofClimbers That hurt to watch, let alone climb it. You never cease to amaze Mike!

@colcollective @friebos @cyclingcols @Pjammcycling @Strava @komoot @BandofClimbers Fantastic video Mike. 10/10 on the Sufferscale. 🤩

Germany’s hardest climb! 35% gradient with 1,400m elevation gain in less than 10km 😱 😱 😱 Check the video 👉🏼 youtu.be/oo_hZ4hjazY Is this @friebos approved? #nebelhorn #mountains #cycling #colcollector

@EdwardPickering Absolutely insane Ed! I was camped out 30m before the infamous left hand bend. Was absolute carnage!

Loze has the same energy as Ventoux.

@JoseBeenTV What an intense day on the Loze yesterday! Thank you for sharing the video 🙏🏻🐮

@PolkaDotRob 😂

It’s just like riding through Knutsford at school chucking-out time.

.@ThibautPinot stopped on Loze by moto carnage 😭 @LeTour @GroupamaFDJ #TourdeFrance 🎥 @cottydale

Nice video from @colcollective on tomorrow’s Col de La Loze to be climbed in the #TDF2023. Looks beautiful but an absolute brute youtu.be/L6_1CnAwU0c

Every cloud has a silver lining and this one is called the Col du Tourmalet 🙌🏻 @ Col du Tourmalet instagram.com/p/CT22p6DMzrE/…

The serene slopes of Hourquette d’Ancizan and Col d’Aspin, sharing such moments as a group was something we never even considered to be anything but the norm. It sure feels good to be back on the road with friends! 🙌🏻 instagram.com/p/CTfqCjTsJuM/…

Mythical places, smiling faces, climbing high beyond the sky, deep in the mountains where time stands still and our angels float free forever 🕊🙏🏻 @ Col du Tourmalet instagram.com/p/CQ4PdSXBEb9/…
