FR - Film complet, version originale française : https://vimeo.com/ondemand/alpinetril...

Last summer 2020, by bike and in only two weeks, belgian climbers Nico Favresse and Seb Berthe climbed the famous Alpine Trilogy (composed of three historical 8b+ multipitch routes: Huber’s End of Silence, Des Kaisers neue Kleider established by Stefan Glowacz in the Wilder Kaiser massif in Austria and Silbergeier in Switzerland's Rätikon put up by Beat Kammerlander). To add some more spices to the adventure, they brought... their dogs, Koux and Bintche!

Here is the trailer of the full film "Alpine Trilogy, Doggy style" coming out soon. WARNING: this video is actually way more than a simple teaser: it is the video clip of the song Nico and Seb wrote during their trip to tell their story! We know, it is a bit late for the summer hit, but still, be ready to dance

FR - Paroles :

Des pédales, nos boules de poils
de Nico Favresse et Sébastien Berthe

En pédalant vers les montages
De Suisse, d'Autriche et d'Allemagne
À la recherche du St-Graal
Des rochers sur un piédestal
On a cherché au Rätikon
Paraît qu' là-bas y en a de la bonne
Des petit pieds des dalles hardcore
Un bout de caillou qui vaut de l'or

(Refrain)
Des pédales nos boules de poils
Des zippettes nos bicyclettes
Nos couches de peau du vélo
Des arquées nos mollet
x2

Vagabondons dans les alpages
Pour y croiser de belles bergères
Y'a pas qu'en grimpe qu'on sait y faire
Ainsi y puiser du courage
Du réconfort entre leurs bras
Mais n'y croiser que des bergers
Du réconfort on en trouvera
Que dans du schnaps à grandes gorgées

(Refrain x2)

On a passé l'Wilder Kaiser
Pour y déshabiller l'empereur
Entre les spits de la longueur
Rapidement calmé nos ardeurs
Des prises mouillées des essais de trop
À la lueur d'une seule frontale
Y faire la guerre c'est pas banal
Jusqu'à ce qu'on soit en p'tit morceaux

(Refrain x2)

Elle lui mordille doucement l'oreille
Il ne sait pas encore qu'il l'aime
Le grand amour entre deux chiens
À coup de langue se révèle
Dans leur charrette ils aboient
Pour plus de watt sur nos pédales
Bintje la teigne n'arrêtera pas
Kroux rêve de dévorer un chat

(Refrain x2)

Allons une 3e pour la route
Ne rien lâcher coûte que coûte
End of silence la Trilogie
Bien mérité l'apfel Shorley
Mais toutes ces prises que l'on serre
N'endigueront cet effet de serre
Le seul méthane que l'on répand
Est celui qui sort de noooooos... (prout)

Des pédales nos boules de poils
Des zippettes nos bicyclettes
Nos couches de peau du vélo
Des arquées nos mollet (2X)
Des lyo nos bouses de vache
Gracieux pets sans carbone
CBD on aboie
Des croquettes on aboie
Du schnaps on en boit

Et le flamand rose s'envola....

Refrain again!


EN - Lyrics
While pedalling towards the mountains
In Switzerland, Austria and Germany
In search of the Holy Grail
Rocks on a pedestal
We looked in Rätikon
They say there's good stuff there
Tiny footholds on hardcore slabs
A piece of rock worth its weight in gold

Pedals, our fir-balls.
Slipping, our bicycles
layers of skin, cycling
crimpers, our calves
x2

Let's wander in the mountain pastures
To meet beautiful shepherdesses
We can do more than just climb
to draw courage from
Comfort in their arms
But by only meeting shepherds
You'll find comfort
Only in great gulps of schnapps

Pedals, our fir-balls.
Slipping, our bicycles
layers of skin, cycling
crimpers, our calves
x2

We passed the Wilder Kaiser
To undress the emperor
Between the bolts of each pitch
which quickly calmed our braveness
Wet holds from too many attempts
In the light of a single headlamp
It's not an easy place to fight a war
Until we're broken into little pieces


Pedals, our fir-balls.
Slipping, our bicycles
layers of skin, cycling
crimpers, our calves
x2

She nibbles gently on his ear
He doesn't know yet that he loves her
The great love between two dogs
With a lick of the tongue is revealed
In their cart they bark
For more power on the pedals
Bintje the moth won't stop
Kroux dreams of devouring a cat


Pedals, our fir-balls.
Slipping, our bicycles
layers of skin, cycling
crimpers, our calves
x2

Let's do a 3rd one for the road
Don't let go no matter what
End of silence the Trilogy
a well deserved Apfel Shorley
But all these grips to which we hold on tight
won’t stop this greenhouse effect
The only methane we're spilling
Is the one that comes out of our... (fart)


Pedals, our fir-balls.
Slipping, our bicycles
layers of skin, cycling
crimpers, our calves
x2

from Lyo's to cow dung
Graceful carbonless farts
CBD we bark
dog-biscuits we bark
Schnapps we drink

And the pink flamingo flew away….
