They did not think i was actually going to ride mont ventoux back then, and i wasn’t, they just knew it from tour de france. At that point i had never ridden any mountain and did not plan to do so either. It was on that trip though that i started to be interested in cycling mountains.
Maybe it doesn’t translate, just an inside joke with my coworkers.
Thanks, yeah it had been stuck on my mind since they said it and i saw it. A meme really.
