I appreciate you.😊. People should sub to your channel as well…. Great content…👍😁
@@ibikeunfolded Hey Unfolded. I remember watching one of your videos and you said the brompton was too slow ? Did you change your mind or. I was thinking about getting a Brompton electric what are your thoughts on this bike and also what model brompton do you ride. Great video.
First thing to check with headaches is hydration.
Good luck Brian.
I think you are right as I am perpetually dehydrated😬
Sometimes when I sleep in a bad posture (check your pillows!), I wake up with a sore neck... which leads to a headache.

Almost everywhere you go here in north america isnt very bike friendly. I live in a small town in a state park with bike trails all over the place, but riding from one trail to another is almost suicidal. Its all about the drivers.
I understand completely… riding through a mine field would be safer than here in Denver.
You're lucky you don't live in London. Rear view mirrors are literally life savers.
Mexico city is not too bad.
I like watching your rides. You shouldn't be waking with headaches, take care of yourself. I use a bus or train with my P-line to go on those long excursions for shopping to places like Thornton and Aurora or Greenwood village but i"ll bus to high ground and google trail home if possible. At 71 I find ways to conserve my energy and still ride baby!
Good to see you back Brian and enjoyed your video. Look forward the next.
good bike ride. hope your company supplemented the work shoe purchase. stay safe out there 🚴♂️💨
Nice t-shirt and cap. I always enjoy your videos.
Brian when i was riding bike to drive school bus over 10yrs ago. I used to wear NEOS over boots over sandels. I had to open them up to regulate heat on bus. Which never got warm inside our winters were around 10f during the day. I would suggest over boots over the redwings.
Good to see you back, Brian!
like your dedication to brompton.
In Denmark, if a Company is asking for Safety shoes, it is their obligation to provide some for the workers. As a now former Joiner I was obliged to wear those, so once in a while we became offered some new. Did you know that "Chapter3" is a Commercial for a British Brand? I think it is some kind of clothing? Finn. Denmark
Not in America, if they do provide shoes they will deduct it from your pay
Brian I always enjoy your videos. One day I’d love to go for a ride with you.
Hi Brian, I get cold feet very quick. For me end my shoes works neoprene/chloroprene/polyamide material shoe covers the best. My feet staying warm end my shoes staying clean 😏 stay save Brain 🖒love the content!
I understand your Brompton hold a sentimental value. Personally I would just ride it to the ground and keep the worn bits as memorabilia as they wear. You might go through a fork or a front frame at some point and it's alright. Make art out of the old bits, they will keep memories alives while you keep enjoying your bike daily. I recently made that choice with my Chpt3 V3. I know it will never be the same as a new one, but it will live its live the fullest. It's not like I want to resell it anyway.
Brompt on!
You know it😁👍
Hi Brian, we enjoy your videos and to see your cat Beans, how is she ?
He doesn't have Beans anymore :/
Bates composite toed safety boots are very light.
There are two things I wish I could change about my Brompton... Belt drive and more gears. I hate chain maintenance in the winter.
thinking abt getting a bike so ty for this vid!
Hey bryan were you been at i miss your videos
I wear ride concepts shoes ,on my second pair.They have held up well.
Why go to Thornton? Arvada and Wheatridge locations right off bike lanes. Denver and Lakewood look pretty easy too. Lone Tree is not far off light rail. You rode to Waterton, the Littleton location is easier and has bike trails. Are the headaches caffeine withdrawal? Or maybe stress? Agree with the suggestion below where you ride the current Brompton into the ground. Save the money. Also, you have other bikes that can take its place. Cannot remember why the Bromton is so important. Your videos are great and have given please to thousands of people. Please get some rest and give some time to Brian.
Hey Brian! Great videos, and Im close to having watched every single one of them --- got so impressed with a folding bicycle I bought a Zizzo Ferro and I love it! One quick question -- what is your theme music? It is really cool. All the Best
Hi Brian, as you said "Brommie gets old" do you have an idea how many miles it has done?
Where did you buy that shirt? I remember my first cassette player in 1976.
New upload let's gooooooo
Nice video! I heard there’s a new 12 speed Brompton out. That could be good for those Denver hills
I also have heard about the 12-speed. It might be worth thinking about it.
@@Kleingarten As an owner of a 6 speed, I honestly don't know why the 12 speed? I wondered for what use I had the low gears at first, till I met an extremely steep Danish hill and had to walk on top! But for most - ordinary uses the 6 are enough, as it isn't a Racing bike or an MTB! Finn. Denmark 😊
Eventually a double chain wheel in front does the same.
@@finncarlbomholtsrensen1188 I also own a 6 speed. I wouldn't mind having 12 gears.
is using the rail/bus with brompton as a last mile an option getting to thornton? cost effective? Time effective? Not that i'm discouraging exercise, but just considering alternatives.
3 weeks since last upload 😢
What is the material of the Brompton frame protector you’re using I quite like it? 🙏🏾
The frame protector is made from an old inner tube. I asked him in the comments for his video th-cam.com/video/Jlr1G843GW8/w-d-xo.html
Hey Brian, have you tried wool socks? Also, are you still using Schwalbe tires or have you tested the Continental Contact Urban?
Review a tern vektron please
Hi, is it cline or pline?
Sleep-apthnea can cause headache's.
🙂👍
Where is Beans?
He doesn't have Beans anymore :/
Wow ❤ you are so British especially up to the teeth 😂😂😂 Damn, those are some A Levels chompers the Sir 😂❤🎉
Don’t be a hater, the Austin powers look is back in baby😃👍
@ibikeunfolded not hating at all mate ♥️ actually loving it 👍 just positively busting your chops 😁
waking up with a headache?.... get your blood pressure checked ❤👍
just testing to see if my comment auto get deleted..
You’re still here.😁👍
@@ibikeunfolded excellent...welcome back to riding your bommies again. this was the reason why it brought me to your channel originally.
You need to be aware that YT also does the following .... th-cam.com/video/j_ghHGM_cu0/w-d-xo.html and the newer th-cam.com/video/BruZDX4HNqY/w-d-xo.html.
First like to ME, my life is now complete!
👍
have you thought about getting into pev's??
Hi🥸
Get an aero road bice and KOM your ride to work
For your new years resolution please book a dental appointment, get a cleaning, and start brushing regularly.
Do you live car free
Haven’t had a car in 7 years.😁👍
@@ibikeunfolded smart man iam actually considering this driving stresses me out I was much happier on a bicycle
I got rid of my car as well. Now it's all on the Brompton.
@@ibikeunfolded
I haven't had a car in 60 years lol. Just 10 bikes.
15 years car free and loving it. I did buy a yacht with all there money I saved🤣
Possibly missing something in your diet,maybe get some blood work done.i know your vegan ,might need to supplement whatever your not getting enough of.
Also google “headaches when waking up. There is a nice overview from the Cleveland Clinic in the answers.
For sure. Vegans suffer often from B12 and omega 3 deficiency if they aren't supplementing. This will make you sluggish and recovery will become slower. And trust me if you think you're feeling bad in your 40s Brian. Wait until you're my age 60. You will feel like you've been run over by a truck after a 20 plus mile ride with hills.
