Ive watched 50 to 60ish videos from this channel....It has rained in every one of them. You're so happy when you ride, even in the rain. I get ticked off when it starts to rain while riding. Love the positivity and energy during your rides..
Aww thanks for watching so many videos! Haha we’re not blessed with the good weather 😅 I’m just happy to be out riding, although I would prefer no rain!
That orange Pinarello is stunning!
❤
Thanks for the video 7 hour bike ride and she is still going, the work in editing and uploading is appreciated by all your viewers.
Forever impressed with British eateries. Surely, we never see the bad ones, but the good ones look great.
Any plans to fit mudguards? They really do make a huge difference for minimal extra weight.
They don't just keep a lot of the muck and water off you (and you really don't want to be ingesting the stuff you ride through in a farmyard) but you'll get less wear and tear on your components.
Oh! It’s another insanely happy person! 🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂😮😮😮🎉🎉🎉😅😅😅🎉🎉🎉
Recommend an Ass Savers Win Wing mudguard, work far better than the ones the attach to the saddle, and bu99er all weight.
Definitely ❤
Best vlog to date this one! I think the variety of terrain gravel offers, such different views of the backcountry, feels like a reet proper adventure! Also comedy amount of trail spam furnishing the bikes and riders 😂
Ahh thanks so much for watching ☺️ glad you enjoyed it 🙌
10000000% need to go tubeless for off road riding. I weigh 120kg and not had a pungy in 3 years. It's an great first job to teach yourself how to do as well; Stans sealant, gorilla tape, a valve and a good track pump 🤙
Pointless.
@@stephensmith2820 I know your comment is, but thanks for replying anyway mate 👍
@@stephensmith2820 That is a weird comment!
What glorious scenery *AND* having a pro guide you around is superb - thanks, Jimmy Kershaw!
He’s great 🙌🙌
I love how you always wear your helmet even in the car. It makes me smile. That bike really looks brilliant, The colour is incredible.
Haha! I do sometimes take it off 🤪 it’s sooo nice 🧡😍
Thats one long ride god u so fit amy .
Also check out the REDSHIFT suspension stem. It makes a big difference in comfort on bumpy terrain, _without_ impacting your bike fit.
Some of the coziest biking videos out there, great watch as usual!
Glad you like them! Thank you 🥰
Love that hexagonal postbox 🛑outside the tearoom; fantastic🛑. Thanks for the video😊.
Thanks for watching 🫶
lots of smiles on this ride ^^
Nice route reminds me of those long CTC Sunday runs with the Rough stuff included. Deff be more easy in the Summer !
Sounds like you proper enjoyed that, joys of gravel riding, best of both 👌
It was great! Thanks for watching ☺️
The inner man child always comes to the fore when cycling through long tunnels. Mwhahahahaaa...😊
Haha of course!
This ride looks awesome! I love gravel.
It was good fun!! 🙌
18:26 Food looks great Amy, you have great talent in the kitchen as well as the bicycle riding. Congratulations on all of your success.
Thank you for the sweet nectar ❤
Thanks so much ☺️
Well done Amy, this video was the push I needed to get back out on the bike. 20 miles of gravel and I was cooked so I’m very impressed! Must get out more and up those miles 💪
Ahh that’s great to hear!! Glad you enjoyed your ride & thanks for watching ☺️
I was born & raised in the state of Washington. You be surprised how familiar bike areas are similar to yours.
Loved this,bike on you two!!
Those sandwiches look great
Ahh nice! Thank you ☺️ ohh they were yummmyyyy!
Epic video Amy wow love the new bike, your improving confidence on the gravel, all three of you slathered in mud a the cafe stop, and of course killing it in the kitchen. Well done mate you are awesome. Keep up the great content, smash those smiles and miles; ding dang done! TTFN back to you girl.
Thank you so much!! ☺️
Great video and looks like a great route! Will be sure to check it out next time I'm visiting my family!
Thank you ☺️ yes was fab! Enjoy if you do it ☺️
Live at Longstone it’s amazing having the trail on my doorstep
Ahh that’s great!
Now that is a ride!
Strong ride!
That looked mint, a lot of trails I know well. Don't know what's happened to Nigel but he'd be impressed too!
It was great! Nige is still around don’t worry! The calendars have just not aligned 😅
Awesome video. Awesome ride. Cool that you were able to ride with a Movistar Pro. Really enjoy your videos. They are always so happy
Thanks so much 🫶 glad you’re enjoying the videos! Thanks for watching & yes Jimmy is great 🙌
Loverly video. Love the cooking section and think the off bike life gives your channel something special. If can’t be long before your subscriber numbers start to go ballistic. ❤.
Glad you enjoyed the video, thank you ☺️
Yay! I claim podium position !
Great ride, tough old day, jimmy was a legend
Jimmy is great 🙌🙌🙌
Great ride, one ill be looking to do next week while on holiday and prepping for the Dirty Riever.... @Kyle just made me lol 🤣🤣 Hell of the north to my ears with your moaning... Something id say to my Mrs 😂😂
😂😂 good luck & see you at Dirty Reiver!! The path down to Monsal trail is MBT so prepare for a walk down there!
Lovely way to spend a day!
It really was 🙌 loved it
It must smell so refreshing everyday but how would this desert American survive with all the rain 😅
Great video love the route done some of it but definitely going to pinch for next time we are down that way 👌🏻
Enjoy!! 🙌
You are mad as a hatter, please do not change! Love your videos. 😂😂😂
Haha I won’t 😂☺️
Enjoying the farmyard tours!
Also be glad you didn't have the peanut butter dish as it wasn't the best😂! We love hello fresh though!
Haha those geese weren’t keen on me! Haha we love it too 🙌
I am doing reiver (again) this year on a grevil, so,e bits hat may help: you absolutely need to go tubeless but also I would strongly urge inserts, I have Cushcore and Vitoria in my gravel bikes, pretty ambivalent to brand. Also tyres: you need good sidewall protection, panaracer (who sponsor reiver) gravelking sk may not be fashionable or fast but they do the job, my Grevil came with ,axis, they will do the job, Pirelli’s cin M will be good if the anthracite sidewall option is taken I am using pathfinder prorated this year but strongly suggest stay away from fashionable fast stuff with less resilient sidewalls (read schwalbe)
Thanks for the advice!! Yes we have booked in for tubeless and I have panaracer tyres for dirty Reiver too 🙌 see you there ☺️
You have definitely improved in descending down hill, not bad Amy. Keep upright and stay safe.
Thank you!!
Great ride! You need an ass saver type rear mudguard to keep some of the muck off.
Thank you! Yes ass saver needed!
watching from grantham UK cheers
It did look wet and a muddy ride. Hopefully everything went just fine. I'll watch the rest of the episode, on tomorrow.
Might pinch that route. Looked awesome 👌
Enjoy!
That looked like a great day out.
It was 🙌🙌
The Raceblades are great but make sure you protect the frame paint, I tape a small piece of old inner tube on. Another job for Kyle😂
😂😂
You need to go tubeless, you will love it 😊 love Kyles black top he had on 👌and them SKS raceblades will definitely fit your bike, I have them on my 700x35 tyres and work like a dream. Cut up some old inner tube or tape to put under the mount points so there don’t rub at your paint 😊
Thank you ☺️
Hello Amy,
A good ride... all good to build your bike handling skills... great stuff.
Take care.
Paul,,
Thanks, you too!
Amazing effort, especially after cycling 100 miles the day before👍I've been cycling for over 50 years and I wouldn't have attempted that rocky downhill😂Some of those descents were right in my wheelhouse though, cracking video👍
Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed it ☺️ haha I’m not a fan of the descents so I don’t blame you! 😂
@@amy.cycling.adventures Oh I love descents, was doing 44mph down one on Sunday😆just don't like rocky ones😂
Was out doing the Cotswold Cross at the weekend - a very technical gravel ride but very enjoyable. Top tip for you....mudguards next time!!!! :p
Ahh sounds great! Yes haha - mud alert!
Amy -- it would be more efficient to replace the chainrings on your cranks than to just get a larger cassette (which will probably also necessitate a new chain).
Yeah, agree. Shorter cranks (165s) and smaller rings best for gravel.
Fair play you pair are so fit!
Amazing vid (and yesterday’s), food looks great too, I’m starving Marvin now! 😂🎉🎉🚴♀️🚴♀️
Thanks so much! Haha it was yummy 🙌🙌 thanks for watching 🎉
Very well done Amy you will get there , 🐑🐑🐑🚴.
bigger Cassette is essential...
lindo vídeo e boa sorte
Good Evening Amy. I`m a newby to your channel and videos, and just thought I`d leave you a comment to say how much I enjoyed watching the couple of videos I`ve seen this afternoon. I`m just getting back into cycling after being quite poorly for a couple of years after having a cardiac arrest in 2020. I spent the first two months of the 2020 lockdown in hospital, and after first coming home I wasn`t able to walk more than a few yards, let alone ride a bike ! I`m glad to say that I`m now as well as I`m likely to be and I`m able to ride solo and with my wife on our tandem on rides of 40 or so miles. ( Before my illness I was a cycling mad man !!! and once recorded 10,000 miles in a year ! I went for a 28 mile ride on the new years eve to get the 10,000 on my Garmin, then found out the following day that I had misread the challenge I was trying to beat, and only needed to have only done 10,000 km ) Lesson learned, Always read the instructions. Stay safe and happy and keep enjoying your cycling. Steve J. x
Hiya, aww thanks so much for this comment, it's great to hear that you enjoy the channel. I'm so sorry to hear about you being unwell. Glad that you are back riding now, hope you have lots of happy rides both solo and with your wide on the tandem!
@@amy.cycling.adventures Thanks for you`re reply to my comment. I`ve read it through and noticed a typo that most wife`s probably wouldn`t appreciate !!! We have both put a bit of weight on in the last couple of years but I wouldn`t describe my wife as , my WIDE ! LOL. ( please don`t worry about it, She can see the funny side.) Enjoy you`re cycling, take care and stay happy. SJ.
Know many of those trails... the "mtb section" that Jimmy was on his limit that led down to the Monsal Trail... probably know that one too - real bastard that one!
If your looking for a mudguard recommendation, I'd go with Win Wing from Ass Savers it'll keep yer bone dry all day.
Win Wing is probably the best
Mudguard I’ve tried
Yes that’s the one, no way I was riding down there haha!
Yes we need to sort it 😂
No can say ya don’t put the miles in gal 👍😎
thanks again for the Strava route link.
No problem ☺️
What were those roads and trails classified as? Didn’t see any other people on cycles, motos, or walking. I’m in the NE US.
Great video, you got me into cycling and bought my first gravel bike last week. Question for Kyle is the Caddy van big enough for the bikes or do you have to take the front tyre off ? As thinking of getting a caddy for bike and over night camps . Keep up the great work both 👍🏻
Aww that’s lovely to hear, hope you have lots of happy rides! Kyle says I fit both bikes in without taking any wheels off, but when I’m packing extra stuff I take the front wheel off to give me more room. I use straps to secure the bikes to the side of the van inside ☺️
@@amy.cycling.adventures that’s great thank you, and thanks for replying ☺️ Look forward to the future videos, take care to you both of you yipeeeeeeeeeee 😂
Kyle must be in a good mood. He actually cracked a few smiles during the video. Nice route. Where did you ride to? Mordor? Lol.
😂 he likes the gravel! The link for the route is in the description ☺️
Two videos in 2 days what I treat with my dinner :D Hope to see some hour long videos when you do your gravel ride event
Haha glad you’re enjoying them 🙌 thanks for watching…haha it’ll probably take me that long to get down one descent!
@@amy.cycling.adventures 😂 have you thought about getting a chest mount for your go pro for when you do the event?
@@OGDMaco I have a camera on the front of my bike 🙌😂
@@amy.cycling.adventures Oh that's cool super looking forward to it
Looks a great ride and a serious effort at 90 miles! An Ass Saver is recommended for keeping the crap from your back wheel from soaking your... ass. And you are doing the Dirty Reiver? Me too - although at my pathetic rate of preparation I'm going to be luck to get round the 120k ride...
Haha yes I need to get one! Yes we are doing it, see you there! :D
Jimmy make her pump her own tyre up. You're too soft Jimmy! 😂
😂😂
You pair need some bloody mudguards! 🤦♂️
Good video put mudgards on them bikes your clothes will thank you.
looks like a disused railway line at the start...
Oops, n/m! I should have watched the end of this video first!🙂
HelloFresh... please do tell what you think. Maybe parlay into an after-ride cooking video to show what they offer? Any curry? 😋
Haha we love a bit of cooking 😍
We love it, we’re using the code ourselves next week 😂 they have lots of different options on their website & yes a few different curries too 🙌🙌
fantastic gravel video !!! even Sandwich Joe is back...the only issue is that Sandwich Joe is gravelling with road shoes and walking in mud with it's cleats...not very clever !!! but certainly he will buy soon gravel shoes and pedals...just keep on with your amazing work !!!
Haha I’m not sure who sandwich Joe is, do you mean Kyle? 😂
@@amy.cycling.adventures yes...my darling...and buy him gravel shoes and pedals so he does not look like an idiot gravelling on road shoes...be well sweetheart.
Are you on Strava? Like to do that route. Cheers cracking video.
Yes - the link for the route is in the video description ☺️
Rihanna says Ella Ella Ella
Wear whatever colour you want to wear, ignore these comments
Is an oat cake review channel next?! 😂
Haha I think so 😂😂
need fenders LOL
No one mentioned low light, that’s pretty obvious about lights in low light. Follow the thread
yipee
Helmet in a vehicle..,??? Interesting choice..😅😅
😂
Не пойму Эми, где солнце?😊😊
I think you both need to go tubeless and avoid those punctures
We are booked in for tubeless on the gravel bikes 🙌
@@amy.cycling.adventures make sure you get a spare old tyre and practice repairing it. Find out what plugs and tool work more easily for you.
Oh and don't forget to top the sealant up every three months.....like I didn't 🤐
Tubeless tries will help you go faster over bumpy ground, but has a learning curve for dealing with issues...
Is Kyle's driving so bad that you need to wear a helmet in the van .... 🤔😁🚲👍
😂
@@amy.cycling.adventures oh, and I'm sure you are a "star wife" lol, but as an ex brickie myself, believe me, Kyle will definitely appreciate coming home from work and having a lovely meal plonked onto the table in front of him! 😃👍
You were certainly very hyper in this video, I think that the first big ride on Rella gave you an adrenaline rush 😂🚲
Thanks for another cheery-up video 🙂👍
@@tonypaddler haha ohh yes I cook every night 🙌 he does offer but I prefer it & he’s always tired when he gets in not surprisingly!
Yes I was very hyper - as usual on rides 😂😂
@@amy.cycling.adventures he's a lucky guy 🙂
On this ride your 'yippees' were a few decibels higher than usual ! 😂
For goodness sake Amy shift down a gear - PLEEEEAAAASE! That cadence! - good lord.
Looked a bit better further into the vid mind.
PS get mudguards - those backsides - LOL! Couple of mudskippers the pair of ya!
Haha I’m trying to work on the cadence but I’m a natural grinder 😂😂
Cmon, fix your own puncture😉
Be careful laying your bikes down on some grass, vehicles reversing may not see them as I know from experience and Carbon cracks very easily!
Why ride gravel? If for nothing else, the views can be much better.
Hello Fresh… goodbye Amy, used to love your videos, don’t sell out like Kookaburra, do some research before you jump into bed with these companies, whilst chasing the wads . Fairly sure Hello Fresh have messed with a few of their customers mental health, and been fined heavily for it. Just saying
Fairly sure?????
Well done both. G8 vid as always😊
Thank you so much ☺️
