Illi Gardner has more Strava KOM/QOMs on climbs than any person on planet earth… yes, that’s right, even more than Andrew Feather!!! With over 8,000 QOMs to her name, she’s still hungry for more! So, we’ve taken her to the legendary Col du Tourmalet, the most visited climb in Tour de France history, to see if she can set a new record up this epic climb!

Insanely impressove. Would be cool to see her do it again after an Ollie workover…. I think getting solid conclusive info on what works and what doesn’t is difficult. Eg. I constantly set my best climbing times on a ti bike with tubulars. Testing back to back. I think bicyclerollingresistance does not take into account the tyre deflection of standup cycling…? So many similar factors vary greatly.

It's wild to watch. Illi has no quads proving that even a climb isn't as much about power as youd think. It's still about cardio and how fast you can clear the lactate from your system. Her cadence is just so freaking constant, it's inhuman. 4min? Lord. She'll have that one for a long time.

Loved seeing a talented women rider!! I wonder how much time she would have cut wearing more aero kit. Future opportunity

Another wonderful gcn video! Bravo Manon and illi, what a Team ! She is so quiet and unassuming oh, you just don't think that gut-wrenching power could come out of that diminutive little woman. I would dearly love to see more of her in future gcn videos! 😎
