A Change Of Pace | A Girona Cycling Film with Keira McVitty | Sony A7SIII
Keira is a great friend of mine with a great story. She used to be a professional cyclist, but moved to Girona having fallen out of love with the sport.
Following a recent change of career and scenery, she finds her love for bikes rekindled.
I went to Girona earlier this year to pay her a visit and explore the area, and this film apart from being about her story also highlights one of the world's heartlands for cycling.

Amen I'm 74 and ride everyday ❤
I’m in awe when reading that you’re doing your own camera work and cinematography. Kudos… brilliant on so many levels and you made some fabulous choices on angles of riders… keeping us within the environment you’re riding in. Also, the aerial shots were just stunning. *nod to the patient friends you have willing to help you get some of these shots. Always a huge plus 👍🏻
This was refreshing! Ever since the pandemic ended. Times now I been bombarded with work, worries, distracted. I’m at the age of 56 I’m dieting and soon will be returning to cycling again. Having to get back in the saddle of my 2016 GT pro series 2 road bike and retrain is not easy. I will find that motivation deep inside me again.

One step at a time, you'll get there!
Gorgeous footage and well edited. Nice message and narration. Well done!
You have a skill with video that can't be taught, enjoyed this one so much!
Spot on. For many of us ,slowing down puts us face to face with issues perhaps avoided,buried whilst constantly in the fast lane (running away) without realizing it! Humans,now more than ever are simply marketing opportunities for Global Corporate Interests... pretty crucial to at least be able to stop from time to time and reflect,learn what is real. Might have to put up with and move through huge conflict,negative emotions,fear,uncertainty,doubt before we see light at the end of the tunnel. Everyone is different and we all carry our own emotional,psychological baggage. Just press on. It is worth it if we are to find our truth. Prayer is good too!
I just ran across this. It's a great video with great story telling.
Great video! Girona definitely has all the ingredients that make slowing down even more enjoyable.
Beautiful dude. Your best work yet.
Wonderful piece, Adore Keira and feel she has a bright future ahead on and off the bike. I see videos like this and I am in awe at the cinematography, sound & story telling! very well done.
Really cool stuff. Loved those opening shots.
Loved this mini-doc, it's top quality!
Thank you …for reminding me what it’s all about xx
Pass me the guitar.... What an excellent video & a great message to all 🫶
Great message and incredible scenery!
Abslolutely love this one! 👌
That's awesome! Congrats!
Such a relaxing watch. Ty!❤
Your life will become even better when you get tastier morning coffee by replacing that grinder with one that's actually good :P
Great story!! But the thing I have also discovered is that once you decide to slow things down, you have to keep making that decision because speed on and off the bike is constantly calling you.
Great video with Keira
excellent film and message 🔥🔥🔥
Lovely.

I agree
Lovely vid, I really like your lovely place and your beautiful bike. Oh why did you give it away?!?!?! Get it back, this bike is the best you’ll ever own or enjoy, contract or not
I thought I knew my way around the Girona region, but can you tell me where the village on the outcrop of rock is...I've never been there?

gret video
Wealthy European cyclists have led to the gentrification of Girona, soaring real estate prices and the uprooting and displacement of native families. This movie should really at least attempt to address this issue instead of ignoring it altogether. There is sometimes a social cost to finding your bliss.
❤
What is the make/model of the bike? I didn't catch it. Thank you
Exactly, I would go to Girona for a silent bicycle life, too 🤦🏻♂️
RISK IT FOR A BISCUITTTTT
The description does not mention the filming location. What part of Spain is this? Is Girona the name of the area? Thank you. Very nice scenery.
