- 3rd PBP (Paris-Brest-Paris) qualifier Llanfair 400km Audax.
Can't believe we got a puncture again...it seems to be a reoccurring theme - going tubeless is on the to-do list!
Loved it & super proud of Kyle for his longest ever ride :D
The 600km qualifier to go now and then PBP here we come!

Absolutely sterling riding you two!😎💪 You certainly know how to crunch those miles😁
Great video and superhuman effort! To say I'm impressed with that ride is an understatement. The old cod loins must have been well and truly knick-knacked by the end. Well done to you and Kyle!

Aww thanks! Yes he does!
Fantastic Amy, you & Kyle are brilliant, and can I just say it's nice to watch someone such as yourself enjoying cycling with so much enthusiasm rather than those who TH-cam for promotional gains.

Awesome ride 😊
Well done you two legends......brilliant effort, I was sore watching2😅
Another Amazing Amy Adventure! (and Karl). What an epic ride, bet you slept great on that little blowup mattress after all that work. Thanks for filming it!
Yes I did! I could have slept anywhere I think 😂
You're videos always make me smile but laughed out loud when Kyle said, "Amy, that's NOT motivating!" 🤣 Loving life, can't beat that 😎👍
Haha he wasn’t happy with that stat 😂😂 thanks for watching!
Well done you two.
Thank you :D
Great job both of you, youvare such a joy Amy and really inspiring.

You really do cheer people up with your lively and chirpy character.
Enough about me! well done on the ride 🚴♂️👍😬
Edit; you don’t look big enough to have eaten that big plate of beans on toast 🍝and fruit cake!🍰 😂
Ah I’m so glad to read this, glad I could bring you a smile ☺️ hope your days got less crappy and you have a good week :D
@@amy.cycling.adventures thanks Amy.
I'm cycle camping 🚲 ⛺ around the Scottish borders for three days next week so that should help 😁
@@tonypaddler that’s awesome! Enjoy!!
When you came out the shop with the sandwiche! 😂😂That cracked me up. You’re hilarious!. I can’t believe you both did that ride that was amazing!. Love all your videos
Absolutely smashing it. Before you know it you’ll be cycling around the world! (Kyle will be driving the support van)
Ohh now that sounds like a plan!
Awesome 👌
I had this exact issue with a pump pulling valve cores out. since then I always tighten the cores up with a pair of pliers when I buy new innertubes before I take them on a ride.
Really enjoying your channel. Loving the content you are a natural. Katharine 🚲🚲
Ah thank you so much Mark ☺️
Well done some big miles congratulations 👏 the Puncture at the end not easy but no raid 😀👍
Fair play
Your nutty and you know it but that was a magnificent effort
Well done and a new subscriber excellent video 👌
Thank you so much!!
Really well presented chapeau on the ride and chapeau for the video presentation 👌
Cheese and onion sandwich’s…. I’ve never even thought of having such a delectable treat!
Another epic video, thanks for sharing and inspiring me to get out there and train harder
Haha it’s one of Kyle’s favourites particularly cheese and red onion! Thanks for watching :D
We’ll done Amy & kyle, kyles doing really well too, well done to you both, good luck on your next ride, love watching your channel, wish I could do the miles you do, knees hurt after a while 😂 old age lol, hopefully doing a long ride this weekend just to get a latte and cake at a place called birkin tea rooms knottingley 😋😋 that’s my motivation and your channel too of course 😊😊
Thank you!! Ohh that sounds like a great bit of motivation hope you enjoyed it ☺️
Nice ride dont skip ads and watch till end yipeee

BadAss!

Awesome!! Well done!!
YIPPPeeeeee 🚴 ride safe
We’ll done both of you I could never ever do that distance brilliant!! 🎉😅

Great video and entertaining to watch... but bloomin hell, what a remarkable accomplishment by you & Kyle, well done to you both. Do you ever take weekend off? You should, you deserve it. :-)
Thank you!! Haha well I had my 600km this weekend but defo a weekend off next weekend 🙌 thank you again for watching :D
WOWSERS! EPIC RIDING! Oh no...Puncture 8 miles from home...🫣 Great going!!
Thank you!! I know it wasn’t ideal! Haha
I was only 6+ hours behind you😮. A very Well done👍
Awesome hope you enjoyed it!
Congratulations Wonder Woman
Great ride Amy - Sychnant pass is the steep climb where you did your dance - its a beast hehe.
Ah yes that’s the one! It was a bit of a beast! At least someone knows where I was 😂
@@amy.cycling.adventures Its about 7/8 miles from where i live 🙂
Wow! Chapeau Amy & Kyle. I can't imagine doing that sort of distance in one hit, the most I've done is 112miles on the Fred Whitton & that was hard work to put it mildly.
Ah well done on that! That’s in my list it looks brutal!!
Blimey! Good effort. Fair play Kyle. Have you thought about tubeless tyres? I've never looked back since using them. 👍
Yes we have and think we will make the switch soon!
Thanks for the sandwich, it was lovely 🥪😀
that service station gives me flashbacks to doing the great orme night ride (a bunch of us in summer set off from the middle of manchester to the great orme at midnight).
Wow that sounds like an adventure! Memories are always made at service stations on rides 😂
400 km done. PBP on track. The good thing about these longer rides is that it does give you the chance to test and tweak your kit. At least now you know which shorts not to wear, and a new pump may be required.
Yes exactly! Thank you!
I had a flat tire today. Used a CO2 Cartridge for the first time. I think I like the pump better.
Also, I've had the valve core spin out like that. I left the presta/schrader adapter on until I got back. Or used a multi tool with pliers to tighten it.
That’s some ride 👏🏼 well done and especially to Kyle who wasn’t running at 100%
Awesome riding. Always fun to have a puncher that last for almost a hour lol 😂
Next one will be 600km through the night Amy. Watching the BuzzAlong channel you young ladies are showing what you’re capable of. Kudos to Kyle for being right there with you and getting super fit himself.
Thank you!! :D yes Kyle is going well :D
Buh buh buh beans on toast!! Americans are fascinated by this meal. I think it's great.
I recommend the Topeak Pocket Rocket Mini pump which doesn’t have that screw-on hose which unscrews the valve. Inflates up to 160 psi and can sit behind a bottle cage.
We actually got one after this! Thank you!
That is a mental amount of miles.
I did a few 240 miles in 24 hr CTC ones. They used to start in the evening so you felt reasonably fresh for the night ride bit .. Its more than the miles its the staying awake bit that is hard on those epics.. All good experience.. Onwards and upwards . Nice video .
Ah that’s awesome!! Yes exactly, thanks for watching :D
Well done too, you both awesome riding and just the 600 too go is it? Thanks for sharing loved video as always. 👍👍
Yes that’s right! I did mine this weekend! ☺️
If you ever release your own merchandise. You need a “Yipeeeee it’s not a £4.50 hot chocolate” t shirt
Ohhh now there’s an idea, one with AKA on too 😂
Alright fine I'll go ride my bike. 🙂 That looked like a fantastic ride.
Yay! Enjoy your ride!
Nice to see a Lady full of life !!
And so far, I've done one 12 miles ride this entire week lol. Your long distance rides are amazing. You're like the energizer bunny always of full of "let's go" energy. Thanks for sharing. Why don't your arms, neck, butt, legs, back and hands hurt?
Haha I do love the long rides and actually not too bad :D the day after achy of course but that’s to be expected 😂 haha I think the bike gives me energy!
248.5 miles. Evan so Amy. You ready for Le Tour now.
Reminds me of when I was cycling back from Sweden to the UK via Belgium. I got a puncture after a 400km over the previous 30 hours and 2000km over the past 10 days.
Wow what an amazing trip! Bet that was a low moment!! Nothing worse!
@@amy.cycling.adventures It was my first sizable outing, up to the north pole in Norway then over to Sweden.
My steed was of the 26" variety in those days and for some reason I hadn't discovered clipless pedals. I was also riding along with my guitar, fishing equipment and a raindeer antler.
Yet, for all the inefficiencies of my method of cycling I decided to 'save weight' and had munched through the last of my food as I was passing Antwerp on the way to Brugge. My 'to be' host awaiting my arrival had a feast prepared so I was niavely unconcerned and believed my tire of choice (conti travel contacts) were impenetrable to all but the sharpest of dragon teeth.
So it was to my surprise when the wall of the tire gave out, in the dead of night in the excited rain so typical of Belgium. I just remember feeling so surprisngly calm, I suspect it was out of a sense of survival.
One positive as I knew the roads and region quite well so I could imagine in my head every length of every road that awaited me, I eventually arrived in a somewhat narcoleptic state and started to fall aslep whilst mid meal, but what a meal it was :D
One word Amy Respect with a capital R
Thank you!!
You all are two tough dudes! I can't imagine riding 250 miles in one jaunt! Thanks for another inspiring and entertaining adventure!
Thank YOU for watching along ☺️
Kyle very often has a sandwich that has an egg in it. Rightly so. As a single item, eggs are the healthiest food in existence... containing, by far, the widest range of vitamins and nutrients.
Aka…. Chapeau
Really enjoy watching your vids . If it's already been mentioned sorry , but maybe a frame pump would be a good investment.
I had a similar problem with my valves. Topeak mini pumps have a little black release button on the flexible valve hose that releases some of the pressure and helps a bit. Just have to make sure you have a valve tightening key....or a topeak chainbreaker tool bit on their multitool has a noggin (techinical term) on it that works well as a valve tool. Just google it.
Thank you!!
@@amy.cycling.adventures Here is a TH-cam video of an example. I'm sure there are many more. "How to remove presta valve core with a chain tool"
Brava brava
Epic stuff you two…. Would only do that distance in a car all credit to you.
I had a puncture the other day and the valve kept coming out with the pump...I didn't even realise they could screw off, was swearing like a sailor 😅
Great motivational video! Thanks for sharing. Quick question please: what make is your hi vis sash and where did you get it? Thank you
Surprisingly it was an Aldi special by last year, you never know what you’re going to find in that middle aisle! But I think Oxford Cycles do them & Amazon ☺️
Oh wow! Wasn't expecting that. Thank you and keep posting the vids!
Bit of grease from your chain onto the valve before you screw pump on, might help?
