Das ist so toll! Ich träume schon lange davon nach Stonehenge mit dem Rad zu fahren. Hello! Thats so cool, definitely cool to do it in Winter 😁. One of my dreams is it to do such a tour. Starting in London or Dover...Thanks so much for sharing! Liebe Grüße🙋♀
Hey! Very glad you enjoyed it! Yes, it had to be done in Winter. I left so early because originally i thought (maybe a bit stupidly) I could get there for sunrise. Then I saw the ice on the roads… But later realised I should have timed it for sunSET, the end of the shortest day. That must have been the moment to celebrate. Oh well, maybe I’ll do it again next year. I hope you get to live out your dream ride. I don’t know where you’re viewing from but I’m hoping to be riding through some German speaking countries later this year. All the best!
@@londoncenturies I live in northern Germany in the area of Braunschweig and the more you go to the south in Germany the better it gets. Human powered journeys are great but tooo many germans dislike them so its sometime a struggle on the roads. And there are some amazing things to see this time. Not because they are beautyful but because they impress so deep, for example if you ride over the Harz mountains. Apocalyptic. Liebe Grüße und allzeit gute Fahrt. 🙋♀
You made it look easy 😂😂😂. Glad you mentioned your knees and bum at the end. I was beginning to think you were a machine 😅. Well done. Great ride and I’m sure it’ll put you in good stead for PBP. just remember to cycle in the correct side of the road 😂😊
😀 Yep, knees and bum were pretty bad by the end of that one, but better now, no long term damage. Definitely not a machine! Thanks v much for the encouragement, PBP is going to be a very long way and the tiredness is going to be off the scale...
Glad you liked it and cheers for the comment! More planned for soon but currently seem to be down with the cough that’s going around so perhaps not quite as soon as hoped. Happy new year to you!
Thank you london centuries this video changed my life; before I saw your channel I was morbidly obese and the doctors said there was no hope. Now I'm 6'5 and have an 8 pack thanks to London - Stonehenge.
Cheers Ian. How do I stay upright? Dunno - luck!! Those lobsters got me through France & Switzerland last spring in crazy cold temps. I was in Austria day before yesterday in snow and could have done with them then but had left them at home because they’re so massive. Major error!!
Great vid. The irony is if you'd done it on the actual winter solstice it would have been far less subzero-however, the weather was crisp and clear so better from the viewers perspective doing it early!
You're right there! It had to be the weekend because I was working today but I got very lucky (in a way!) with the weather. Good thing is, the frostbite (!) in my toes seems to have disappeared now but I got some nice atmospheric footage in that weather. Lucky result.
Great to have you back. Lovely video as usual. Not sure cycling at 3am in that temp is a good idea mind but you survived and had a great ride in the end which is what cycling is all about of course. Happy new year to you 🎉
Thanks Phil, and I appreciate the appreciation. I’m not going to make a habit of those long ones on cold dark nights but I can’t wait for a bit more daylight. I did another night one this weekend just gone and it went ok but generally I’m going to wait for better weather now. Hope 2023 has kicked off well for you!
Love the videos. Great content, wonderfully unique. I've sat and watched almost all of your videos while getting over a bit of a poorly stint. Keep sharing your adventures. New follower...Nige 🙂👍🚴
Hey cheers Nige, much appreciated! Hope your poorly stint is over soon - I've gone and picked up the dreaded lurgy too, so also at home and NOT on the road. Most unsatisfactory. Happy new year!
Thanks Julia! Hopefully I've got some nice ones lined up for '23 (although I want the days to get a bit longer first, there's a bit too much darkness for me right now). Thanks for watching and happy Christmas!
Thanks! I enjoy your videos, you were out riding on Remembrance Day a while back and said something about being thankful, because 'It's a good life' - I couldn't agree more. Cheers for watching.
@@londoncenturies Ah cheers mate, yep that was one of my thought provoking ones; life is what you make it and all that good stuff! Here's to another good year on the bike 🍻
Ha! The bits I cut out of that vid included the bit where I was lost in a wood at about 5am somewhere near Farnborough, the bit where I got lost trying to find a short cut around Aldershot, and various others in a similar vein. But I do seem to make it back home eventually!! 😃Cheers for the comment, much appreciated!
It’s a steel frame, carbon fork with disc brakes, Condor Fratello. Right at this moment I’m riding it home from Venice. It’s great for these long distance haunts. There’ll be a vid up for this ride in due course.

Your a bloody star!
Hello Jonathan!! Hope you’re well and riding happily!
Braver than I am on icy roads! Chapeau!
Yes I don’t think I’d have set out if I’d known, to be honest. 😀
Very enjoyable video and a fine performance. You are a better man than I sir!
Those roads definitely slowed you down...
Thanks Anthony! If I had an emoji with a knowing-wink look on its Face ID send that! 😀Cheers for watching and I hope you’re riding well!
Braver than me. Ice scares me too much. Happy Christmas.
Cheers, Simon. Funny thing, when I look at the footage of those roads now I think 'crikey, what was I thinking?' Happy Christmas to you too!

Nice one, loved that. Great cycle. Great picture of Stonehenge.

Once again what a fantastic ride, also a great vid with stunning scenery and light.Keep them come in 2023.
Thanks again, Paul! Yes, very lucky with the light on Saturday. I loved that huge sky over Stonehenge itself, glad you're enjoying the scenery too.
Great ride in those conditions!
Loving your videos fella!!
Hey thanks, it was unbelievably cold out there, wasn't it??
A tad chilly! At least you stayed dry.
@@SaddleSore True! Your solstice audax was cold AND wet, nightmare. Good one to finish your RRTY on though. Cheers!
Thank you london centuries this video changed my life; before I saw your channel I was morbidly obese and the doctors said there was no hope. Now I'm 6'5 and have an 8 pack thanks to London - Stonehenge.
Errrrr.....?
Great to see another video. You know you’re hardcore when your water bottles freeze…
Thanks Neil! Yep, it had been a while and I'd forgotten that feeling of reaching down and realising the bottle has gone completely solid.
Just brilliant, how do you stay upright on those roads? Love your lobster gloves….
Cheers Ian. How do I stay upright? Dunno - luck!! Those lobsters got me through France & Switzerland last spring in crazy cold temps. I was in Austria day before yesterday in snow and could have done with them then but had left them at home because they’re so massive. Major error!!
Chapeau 👏🏼 A tough ride, a great vid and a lovely pre-Christmas surprise treat. Thank you and a very Merry Christmas.
Thanks Julian, much appreciated. Merry Christmas to you, hoping to bring plenty more vids in the new year. Thanks for watching!
See what you did there. Nice one. Have a wonderful Christmas and many new spins in 2023
Glad someone got that!! 😀
Thanks, and yes, there'll be lots of spins in '23. Can't wait...
Great vid. The irony is if you'd done it on the actual winter solstice it would have been far less subzero-however, the weather was crisp and clear so better from the viewers perspective doing it early!

Thanks for watching, Mr Marrow. That name, by the way. Very cool!
Amazing effort ... Well done mate. I love watching your video's. Merry Christmas!
Thanks, and very glad you enjoy them. Happy Christmas to you too, there'll be more videos coming soon....
OMG, 334km in these conditions? Amazing! Happy Christmas!
😀 Happy Christmas to you, too!

Thanks Fred. Happy Christmas to you too, thanks for watching and I hope you have a great 2023 on the bike, if that's what you do.
Happy Christmas 😀
Cheers Richard, you too!
200 subs‼‼
I know Ro, brilliant eh? Thanks for your support too!
That’s crazy! I can’t even ride from Rugby to Leamington without getting lost. How do you plan your route?
Excellent inspirational stuff. Subscribed!

What bike are you using, mate?
It’s a steel frame, carbon fork with disc brakes, Condor Fratello. Right at this moment I’m riding it home from Venice. It’s great for these long distance haunts. There’ll be a vid up for this ride in due course.
