You guys are amazing - we can't thank you enough for your fundraising, these daily videos and your great resilience (hopefully no dogs and locusts/crickets tomorrow). A huge THANK YOU from all at Get Kids Going! and all the young athletes you are supporting. BIG THANKS to everyone who has made a donation on the JustGiving page. It's simply wonderful.
Thank YOU guys for all you do to help more people have access to sport and physical activity!
👏👏👏
High Five from the Trek Bee Cave team! It was awesome talking and hanging out with you both! Have fun the rest of the way in Texas and beware of more dogs! Hope your new tires get you the rest of the way without a flat!
As the old adage goes, you don't have to be faster than the dogs, you just have to be faster than Justin :)
Justin, Whoever invented the bicycle deserves the thanks of humanity
In honour of Day 23 +/- I will turn Zwift up to full difficulty and email them to ask if they can add Dogland as a world so everyone can practice sprints or do intervals.
We should lobby for a "Justin and Francis" mode where you get random anti-boosts along the ride. Punctures, cargo falls apart, random weight increases, poisonings, and plagues of locusts.
🤣🤣😅🙌👍👍
Couple of things. 1) airhorn (which you have) or mace for the dogs. works AMAZING! 2) that section is tricky to get through and I have had the same issues with busy roads. Bastrop is the WORST. 3) Those gravel shoulders are basically "chip seal". Its Texas thing. Most of our highways have huge shoulders, probably because its cheap. 4) Kamoot is sending you on some straight up dangerous stuff, amigo. You are in the Hill Country of Texas now. You can ride paved Ranch Roads without ANY traffic for endless miles!
A former co-worker of mine retired and rode "the Four Corners". In a nutshell, the route you 2 are doing now, plus across the top of the US, and also the 2 coast lines (Atlantic Coast, Pacific Coast). He then wrote a book about the whole experience (look up "Bicycling the Four Corners" if you are interested).
I remember him mentioning later that the dogs in Texas are notorious. When riding through Texas, it was a constant thing to see them coming out from underneath porches and chasing you down.
Be on the ready!
if you could get a mention on BBC the donations would blow up. this is the kind of thing they love.
Amazing! Difficult circumstances breed appreciation and persistence and its beautiful to watch.
You don’t need to outrun the dogs, just outrun Justin 😁
Justin cant run💀💀💀💀💀💀
@@paulcampos203 No need for that.
If you guys end up cruising thru Las Vegas you’ve gotta hit the bike shop I work at called Pedal & Pour. Just a really nice local bike/coffee shop, we do full service and have a full cafe setup as well, we’re big fans of what you guys are doing it’s crazy!
Just incase you get chased by dogs again, there is a pepper spray that can be used against aggressive dogs. It comes as a small compressed cannister about the size of a mini pump. It's harmless but deters them!
Carry beef jerky and throw it as you ride past, or as a last resort just try shouting sit in a very commanding way!!!
I am loving this series ❤ you've become part of my daily routine! I am so sorry to hear of your troubles with dogs and filthy hotels. Unfortunately I am sure there will be more of both but hopefully there will be many more wonderful people!!
Like others above, didn’t know you were coming through Austin yesterday, or about a mile from my house. Would have been happy to join for a bit or host a home meal! But I’m sure that level of planning would be a whole new level of effort, so not expected. It’s been fun to see your ride across the country and the successful fundraising so far. Best of success on the rest of the ride!
Justin cam while escaping the dogs would have been hilarious, not sure where he was while you were sprinting away.
I suspect both hands were busy!
He was probably giving the dog a whack with his American flag.
"Can we just have one day where nothing weird happens?" You guys are riding bikes across the USA! That is weird! But it's my kind of weird.
And Austin's motto is Keep Austin Weird. Too bad they had no idea.
You two sound knackered. Take it easy lads.
If needed you can use a 700cc inner tube on a 650 wheel. Just fold the inner tube in the tyre, will keep you riding till you get the spares repaired👌 The daily entertainment is fantastic and you guys are just awesome 👏 well done to you for making it happen, £71K WOW!😊👍
Also works for 20 inch size wheel.
i guess you two are dig tired after today .... congratulations on monies raised to-date, truly awesome.
Good luck with the climbing tomorrow.
With Mauna Loa erupting, it made me think of your great post where you climbed that volcano.
Grits! Great fuel for evading dogs.
Pump-Action-Francis and Justin-Case 🤣🤣🤣
Francis panic sprinting noises with doggy yaps in the back - only funny when it ain't happening to you :)
You guys need a pump action Francis sticker I'd definitely buy one.
Did you know that the local strapline for Austin is "Keep Austin weird".... you're in the wrong place for weird s**t not to happen...! 🤣
Much respect for editing these videos on the go! Keep up the good work. 😀
always found small yappy dogs are more aggressive that the big ones. Great vid again guys - you rock!
Hello gents 👋. You cannot beat a zone 5 VO2 max dog fleeing exercise, 20+ days into a 3000 mile bike ride 👍 ( I think!). 💚 to Trek there ......71 K Outstanding ! 👏
Gents, I forget sometimes that you are on a Charity Mission and not a tourist trek, hence no Juan Pelota! Anyway come back soon. And what happened to the "sound bomb" repellent?
I like the music, good old JJ
Really enjoy watching your adventure in the US. After seeing Justin in the Academy Sports store. I thought that he might like to go to a gun range, There should be a few in Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. If you were traveling through Oklahoma I would make sure you had an opportunity, I'm sure someone else out there could help.
I’m following along…from Antigua, really connected to your journey. Stay safe guys
That was amazing being on a gravel road dealing with dogs… when your at eye level with an attacking dog that is fear one should not experience ! A group of dogs is a real scare on a bike but eye level thats courage.
Fewer dogs, not less!!!😂😂😂
I live in a country with a dog problem and I've had to pull the sprint on opposite side of the road maneuver way too many times. The dogs are one of the main reasons why I'm moving.
Love that Cade was willing to get Justin eaten by dogs on camera 🤣🤣
That was a lot of dogs, I see your cunning plan out sprint Justin and leave him to get eaten.🤣, though it could be possible that on this trip this is a normal day. Fingers crossed for a quieter day tomorrow without incidents.
Absolutely love this series!!! Stay safe in Dogland!! See you tmr.
I look forward to your videos every day
Just absolutely loving following your journey, makes me chuckle and I look forward to them every day. Well done so far on the fundraising
I'm now getting ads on face book for Mountain Dew....in New Zealand.
Thanks for the entertaining series! I rode across USA this summer with only 1 flat tire using Schwalbe Marathon Plus tires. I highly recommend them.
Put some Stan's (or other latex sealant) in your tubes. You'll need it as you get into the desert. Goat heads are a problem out this way.
A little too late on this one, but as a cyclists in this area, I've learned the only way to deal with dogs is to yell at them at the TOP OF YOUR LUNGS as soon as you soon them. That kinda snaps them back into reality somehow.
Almost half way there. Keep pushing😊
Oh guys I wait for your video everyday, you are both so inspiring! Awesome job, just keep peddling ☺
Have just watched 1899 on Netflix then saw the Earth sign tattoo on Francis 😎
When Lawrence attacks!
You need to get some "Halt" for the dogs.
I'm so sad I missed you coming through town! I hope the rest of Texas has less dogs.
Unlike the bugs from yesterday, dogs are a serious issue. I live in Central Florida and run into this situation more often than I'd like. Even if they don't want to eat you, I've seen several cyclists get wrecked by a dog running right out in front of them. No idea why people let their dogs run free like that. Glad you both escaped unharmed. Onward and, obviously upward tomorrow.
On Reddit's r/cycling, there are suspiciously many posts about dogs. This all seemed way to abstract to me - where I live, free roaming and aggressive dogs are unheard of.
If you're quick on the draw with your water bottle a quick squirt will halt most any dogs (I've heard, never been brave enough to try!)
Donated!!!
thanks James!
Glad y’all made it through Austin. The frontage road to 35 is not a good place to be on a bike. On a side note: Somewhere behind you there is a bunch of Texan dogs sitting around the water bowl saying how much they hate y’all cyclists. Be safe out there guys - by the time you leave Texas you’ll be used to the dogs.
It like something out of a film while you were making your escape from the dogs, 🤣.
£71k, wow, well done to you both and to everyone who made a donation.
Absolutely fantastic.
Dang, sorry to have missed y'all! Glad you two were able to ride Southwest Parkway. That's one of my go-to roads because it's so beautiful.
Keep on trucking, gents ! Bravo
Well done reaching 71k. Well done, indeed!
#cadorade
Sorry you had to experience Austin in the shadow of highway 290. We can show you the nicer bits if you ever come through again.
The dogs in Texas are pretty bad, I live just south of Dallas and i always feel like im trying to out run dogs. Earlier this year I actually hit one and went over the handle bars dislocating both wrist and messing up my shoulder pretty good. Good luck out there you guys!
Sorry to hear that. I hit a dog once and it was the strangest thing. The dog wasn't aggressive, he just made a last-minute move that I wasn't expecting and I ran right into him. Luckily we both walked away with no major injuries.
@@HarryFunmaker hey good to hear!! i was able to finish my ride when mine happen. Most dogs are just being playful and chasing wheels, but ill tell you this, ill be sprinting away from dogs from now on! hahaha :D
As I’ve said……….Legends ✊🏾
Dogs are bad news in rural US. There are no enforced leash laws. Carry dog spray and dog horn. I always do on my rides
Mail Carriers have been killed by dogs, and one recently. One dog, scary, multiple dogs at once good luck. Not to be taken lightly.
Ooops, look out for the dogs, well, as long as I'm faster than you Justin, I'll be OK 😆
Get in lads. x
USE THE PUMP TO PREFILL THE TUBE WITH AIR.
The talc function is to take up the small amount off humidity in the air from a pump.
The talc can't absorb all the humidity coming from a human breath.
Then the tube start to rotten inside withing a few hours and give you an puncture within a week.
These vids are the highlight of my day. You and Justin are such a joy to watch! Quick question: Have you prebooked all the hotels or do you decide on a whim which to take once you get to your destination or half / half?
"New max heart rate." LOL!!! Glad you managed to get past them. I've ridden out in the country as well, and it's pretty ... exhilarating riding past dogs.
I'd love to donate but I'm a broke uni student. Love all of the videos and great content as always.
This is the USA and we have lots of dogs some of us have big cats as dogs have fun riding
A friend of mine had a Great Pyrenees dog t-bone him on his bike as he was trying to sprint away. Somehow he managed to stay on his wheels and get away, but he kept feeling like his rear brake was dragging. Little did he realize until the next ride that the impact had broken the driveside chain stay along the weld at the drop out.
The good thing was that his wife had already paid for a new Specialized Roubaix and was going to surprise him for Christmas that year which was less than a week away
Go for 100k!
I never used to really notice dogs here in the UK - after TCR this Summer that all changed. On your return I am sure you'll start noticing them too Francis!
Where in New Mexico are ya'll rolling through? Santa Fe would love to have ya stop by!
Thank you Francis and Justin...sorry about the dogs , damn !
Look forward to your update every day. Even my bike shy wife is getting into your adventure 😁.
That's awesome, Nigel. Similar situation over here. I think "do something grand for a good cause and keep good humor about all the trials" is something even non cyclists can relate to :)
This is what happens when you wear Attac..us kit.. Boom boom boom boom (for those that remember Basil Brush)
great stuff as usual
Oh cool day 23 🐕
Was amusing to see you guys outrun the dogs of dogland; today's adventure and the thumbnail conjures up images of Sir Arthur Conand Doyle's, "The Hound of The Baskervilles" that I read in my high school English Literature class decades ago; Trek bicycles ... my favorite bike manufacturer; keep charging. ride safe. be safe.
Have a word with Lawrence he can tell his American cousins to leave you alone 😂
You guys broke 2,000 supporters!

Safe travels gentlemen!
Use your water bottle to shoot water to scare the dog or if you want to carry something pepper spray is good to have on hand
Ultrasonic dog zapper worked for me in Spain. Doesn't hurt them like some other solutions.
Where was the air horn dog scarer?
Exactly!!! To be fair probably hard to do that whilst sprinting 😂
Lance Armstrong"s "Ride for the Roses" used to go through Bee Cave. You can find some tough climbs in that area.
Those little bits of metal (from retreaded truck tires) are the worst. Probably responsible for 80% of my flats.
Every time I change my tires (tubeless)I see a few of those little metal wires still stuck in there.
I am sure that James has enough upper body strength by now to break a man in half. I also believe Francis should keep that in mind when he is poking him in the face with the camera during a hard day XD
I live in Austin and I am sooo disappointed I missed y'all coming through! I would have loved to have ridding with you for a bit!
noooo that would have been great!! next time!
Justin totally should have bought that Legion Sword
I hate to admit this, but for a minute there I thought Francis had ditched Justin when the dogs came out. Sorry y'all are having issues with dogs, this is why I've shifted to mountain biking. Not worth dealing with Texas dogs or distracted soccer moms. If Kamoot has a satellite feature, you can check for mobile homes on your route. Mobile homes often have unfenced dogs.
Find a chipotle guys!
Oh I wish I'd known you were going to be in Austin last night into today (I assume you post these 1 day later). I could have hooked you up at my mom's. Guaranteed way better than a hotel.
I thought that Francis might have to ditch the trailer as he could not get away fast enough..🚲😉🇨🇦
Have you heard of patching? Us Dutch people patch our inner tubes till theres nothing BUT patches visible! I bet i can patch faster than you can change a tube! Love the content though! almost caught up!
Junk yard dogs? Was Lawrence among them? That boy just gets every where!!
This is a regular occurrence in Austin and we've had a lot of local cyclists get bit lately. Some of these rural home owners just let their aggressive dogs just run free and do whatever they want
Rural? You mean stupid hillbillies... most of them have been gentrified out of bee caves
@@stubbingtonmarigold3032 Bee caves is fine, I wouldn't consider that rural and there's no ranch dogs running around. The problem is out in east austin (manor, new sweden, etc)
It’s not rural now lol
@@stubbingtonmarigold3032 Elgin/Manor is not rural? What? Have you ever been there? It's all ranches, farms, and fields. There are a few subdivisions popping up here and there but it's mostly very rural
Yes I’ve lived in Austin two times 5 yrs each. I know exactly what Austin is like.
I've had dogs give chase for a half-mile, or more. Some dogs are incredibly fast.
You'll give yourself a heart attack before you outrun them. What happened to having the horn?
'Never leave a man behind....'. .'..F#ck that.'
£71k!!!!!!!! bloody hell
❤️
You can hear the slow disdain in their voice for American infrastructure growing each episode, and I'm here for it.
They did ride the frontage road of US 290 through Austin, essentially a highway. I’ve biked thousands of miles a year in Austin and never once ridden that road. They missed all the good cycling routes with lanes and scenery etc through town, even a few dedicated bike paths away from any roads. Totally understandable when planning from a distance, and trying to make the route as short as possible, but 290 should not be seen as representative of cycling infra in Austin. It’s not perfect, but way better than the roads they were on.
