Sorry to hear this Thomas. Looking on the bright side, it’s great news that it didn’t let go when you were riding!! Glad to hear the people at Team cycles are looking after you 👍. All the best!
It's windy, cold and wet back here in the UK, things will only get better. The challenges that we don't ask for are the ones that we learn the most from....that said praying there is no more surprises 🙏
The fact that you're still so positive and looking at the bright side after all these set backs speaks volume about you. Hope you'll turn the corner soon, and I'm looking forward to more Portugal cycling content! Love that country during my short stay there.
Oh Thomas, my heart goes out to you bro. And stop being so hard on yourself! There's often invisible damage internally after impact, there's no way you'd have known. In my experience, warrenty just immediately replaces after impact, they don't want to take the risk. You're no idiot bro, you're a legend for battling on. Wishing you some better luck soon ❤️💛💚🔥🙏🏼
Lucky you didn’t have a catastrophic failure whilst riding. I really know what you’re going through. My wife and I moved out from the UK to California some 27 years ago. Anything that could go wrong did go wrong. We didn’t really consider giving up but I imagine a lot of people would have. It’s a long story but basically we stuck it out and it turned out to be the best thing we ever did and we are still here. Stick with it mate. Things will get better. Good luck.
Head up bro, keep grinding and pushing. Am sure things will pick up. Be thankful you get to live in Portugal and not stuck in Essex like I am! Once that new bike comes those KOM's are yours! Big Love
You're so fortunate Team Cycles is replacing your busted frame. That's really great news from a bad "break" pardon the pun. You beat the break without being stranded or worse, injured. That's the beauty of the faith in Portugal. You're standing on holy ground where the dogma of the faith stands! Best of luck ahead.
That’s so tough! Great to hear Team Cycles are being so supportive! The roads look great out there! Beautiful sunshine in November too! I hope everything goes smoothly for you both now! 🙏
Sorry to hear about the bike frame being damaged, you're spot on about the small crack in the composite opening up on the ride. To cut you some slack, there's a reasonably good chance that you wouldn't have been able to see the crack when you checked the bike over, but the cracks then opened up when you rode it. As you say, you were lucky enough to find the cracks when you got home. That's way better than 'finding' the crack when the frame fails while you're going downhill! The way composite panels get damaged from impacts, it's the other side of the composite which suffers most. There's a science behind it if you're interested, Google "Impact composite damage" if you're curious. There's some nice images on there which show what happens. Keep your chin up Tiger! It'll get better from here!
Man things will turn around. I was super stoked to see some rides posted to strava and couldn't wait to see updates on TH-cam. We're waiting and hoping for you! Fingers crossed this will be the last of the bad luck.
Cheers from the north of Portugal. If you ever come to Porto, let me know. Me and my family, we will happily enjoy showing you the food and the lovely views. Best of luck... 👍
Hey mate, glad you got your frame sorted. A word from the wise. Go down your stairs barefoot, 10yrs ago I fell down my stairs carrying my Madone while wearing carbon soled cycling shoes. Bike came off just fine and I managed to keep it from hitting anything. I came out with a dislocated collar bone and compression fractures to my C4 and C5 vertebrae. Safe riding mate!
Just a set back man. All about perspective. I randomly threw a clot at some point and it settled in my LAD (99% block) which resulted in a series of heart attacks recently. I'm only 33! Hypertrophy of the left side and quite a bit of lost function. I'm hopeful that ill return to form after some time, and the same for your frame.
Oh man!!! The last 4 weeks it’s going a big challenge for you! The good news is that you, your girl and dogs are good! Bike can be replaced! Boa sorte, meu irmão!
Some good luck must be due your way, mate. I reckon the universe is lining up something big (in a good way) for you after all this! Awesome to hear the guys at Team Cycles are looking after you too. I've heard lots of great things about them and this just adds to that. Better days ahead, brother. 👌🏼
Hoping your luck changes and you're back on the road soon. Portugal looks amazing and much more fun than the 20 miles I rode in the rain at 10 degrees this morning
Heads up, it can only get better from here, if it wasn't for your recent bad luck you'd have no luck. Great that Team Cycles are sorting you out, I purchased my Emonda from them and always been impressed.
Wow what a start to life in Portugal 🇵🇹! Keep moving forward & when everything slots into place it will be all the more sweeter. Chin up chap & thank you for a cracking channel.
Feel for you Thomas lots of emotional hits… above all else be kind and gentle to yourself 🙏🏽 Knocked off my bike in February this year can’t remember a thing about it … ended up in Hospital full hip replacement…still recovering and lost my bike too! Love cycling definitely a life style. Dealing with PTSD too. Take care T.
Hey mate, at a point of time in the short-term future you will look back on this fiasco, having got through it it one piece. This won't last forever and will be over before you know it. One day at a time mate you guys got this, dont stress about us here on the internet we here waiting and supporting you guys.
Portugal 🇵🇹 is beautiful place, was over in Christmas holidays 2017 18-22c most day sunshine ☀️.. what a difference it makes to your training compared to UK .. was absolutely buzzing everyday getting some big days in😁👍. Best of luck with new bike, and enjoy the new home 👌🚴😉
Thomas, getting it professionally checked out would have only brought the bad news forward 72hrs. Doesn't change anything. Chin up. You are all safe and well, trying times, you'll overcome them and kick on.
Welcome to Portugal. Looks like you are staying somethere around Colares/Sintra area... such a beautiful place to be... Don't forget test premium enduro MTB trails in Sintra mountain ;)
Heads up Thomas, I'm sure you will get more luck in the future. The winter in Portugal makes everything looks a bid sad (at least for us Portuguese), but wait a few more month and you will see that you and your girlfriend made the right move.
Sorry brother, I am glad you are OK, and caught the crack before it was too late. Wishing you Rachel and Daisy nothing but great luck moving forward. 🫶🏾
If you think about it, the car accident was one event that has caused a number of issue’s. Thankfully you and Rachel are fine and in time her business and your channel will go from strength to strength.
Sorry to see the way things are rolling at the moment, it will get better. I moved to the Austrian Alps 10 years ago. Although tempted i would never trust carbon frames here, particularly when unseen damage can be life threatening at 100kmh descents. Try top end steel or titanium, might just be a life saver and you may actually prefer the qualities and most certainly the looks!
Hello Thomas, welcome to Portugal, I just found your channel, and you just win another subscriber. We share the same pasion for bycicles and Portugal. It was painful to see what happened to the bicycle, but we must be grateful that you saw the failure in time, and prevented a possible serious accident. In the future if you need to repair any carbon parts, there is a store in Alhandra that works with carbon "Gelu carbon creations". Take care! And again welcome to Portugal
U seem to be having a soapie show moment -days of our lives !..thank god trek has a life time warranty on the frame , but better for u , a new bike will soon arrive ..good luck going forward with everything! Keep up the great work!!👍
Sorry to hear mate. That unfortunately is one of the drawbacks of carbon fiber, it can "hide damage". I'm sure when you inspected your bike everything did seem fine. Good thing you noticed it when cleaning as opposed to having the frame fail on the road
Im Sorry to hear - there are better times in life and then some like this. It will be better soon, that’s for sure. Just keep going - awesome video btw! ❤
Unlucky that your frame broke, but REALLY lucky nothing happend to you while riding it yesterday! Could have easily ended in a horrible crash, glad you‘re safe
Tough luck man, hope the world 🌍 starts spinning in the right direction for you once the new bike arrives, going for the same colour? Really enjoying the Faast Crew Zwift rides, keep them coming 👌🏻
Ugh sorry about all the bad luck! I’m so excited to hear more about your experiences in Portugal. I was trying to move to Girona but my work said no. They have approved move to the UK but my partner has been there for a year and a half and we’re not fans of the weather, let’s say. Seriously considering Portugal now. I might just say screw work and do it. So much easier to immigrate to as well.
Hope the bad luck is gone now. And good thing it didn´t snap completely whilst out riding. Hope it doesn´t take to long to get the new bike so you can get back out on the road soon.
You will look back on this and laugh about your journey to your new life in Portugal, onwards and upwards. On the car front maybe look for a Transit Custom Crew Cab, loads of room in the back for boxes and bikes and plenty of space for the three of you
Yeah I did look at them… but they’re a lot harder to come by over here and a lot more expensive. Was also looking at lwb caddy’s but it’s the same story with them.
@@TheCyclingTattooist yeah I must say they are not the cheapest, I have one through work and it’s great for throwing bikes and room for the kids. You looking at practical cars/vans! Showing your age now 😂 but you’re right that you need something that you can both use. Great that Team Cycles are getting you a new bike, that’s fantastic news, what a fantastic sponsor you have in them 👍🏼
Looking forward to when you get your bike replaced and go on some epic Portuguese rides. Go for a ride to Sesimbra and Setubal - I know them quite well. Great roads 😁
After road cycling and racing for 10 years in may I was involved a serious road traffic accident that led to me being in hospital/rehab most of the summer and my leg was so badly damaged that I’m still not able to bend my leg enough to ride. I’ll make it back to the sport I love hopefully soon but I just wanted to say to everyone who’s reading this to enjoy it, have fun and most importantly stay safe out there. Bikes can be bought, bodies not so much…
That's gutting to hear! 😬Just the other day i was speaking to a bike shop owner who sends carbon frames off for repair, says they come back stronger, look like new and even matching the colour schemes perfectly. That's in the UK, no idea about Portugal though 🤷♂
Man it’s just a bad stretch. Keep positive dude. Also find a surf board repair shop and they will repair the carbon in a few days for a few hundred euros. I cracked my two week old Orbea and took it to Carbon Fibre Repairs near Barcelona. It’s just like new. Even had the same carbon material pattern.
head up my brother things will fall into place you got your new life a head off you keep the videos coming Thomas your luck will change till next time Wayne
Chin up mate Trek should send you a new frame Hard to do right now but think of 3 positives for today. You have your health and are super strong being two 🙌
Couldn’t believe that title when I first read it, I was like ‘not ANOTHER thing!’. We are invested in your adventure out there and have actually just booked Majorca (first cycling holiday) off the back off your adventures - inspirational. Lost count the amount of times I’ve heard your title song sung in our kitchen lol. I honestly think the bigger problem is that haribo haven’t come through with the million dollar sponsorship deal yet. Pathetic. Stay well, love from your friends you’ve not met yet in Manchester x
Mate I feel for you ... watching this episode after reading the title I was just waiting for the news.... chin up bro it will pass and BIg Shout out to Team Cycles what a great outfit.... I defo will be using them going forward... I wish you well - in Special Forces the saying is 'Slow is smooth smooth fast ' you will get there.
Chin up mate hopefully the worst is behind you. Some day's you are the dog and some the tree. I would not be able to replace my carbon bike so it only come out for special occasions, black bess my old aluminium bike, tough as nails and reliable is my go to with 20k strava miles on it, was re built from a frame I fished out if a river from a time in life when I was the tree. Best of luck love the vids.
Keep the head up! I'm 3months post breaking my wrist on a ride. Bikes fine but as I'm working to get my wrist bending again the temptation to sell the bike n never ride again is real
Mate, so gutted for you, absolutely awful, but just like you say, keep going buddy. Must be due some amazing luck any minute! 💪💪🏁🏁 Keep going with this ace channel. I’m a massive dog lover, so it’s great to see your gorgeous pup along side bikes!!❤🐾🐾🚴♀️🚴♀️🚴♀️🚴♀️
@@TheCyclingTattooist it’s all about the doggies! Ace your girl is working with dogs too, myself and my girl are both dog walkers for a living. We have two whippets and two doodles. And of course we ride gravel bikes, and a bit of road…on the gravel bikes!!
Carbon the drywall of the cycling industry 😉 Hope you find something but many years ago I switched (back) to metals Alum/Steel/titanium all quite light enough these days & can take a hit & walk away
For what it’s worth, I recently had similar damage to my sl7, carbon bike repair in Surrey quoted just £190+vat to repair it. Spare bike never hurt anyone 😂
Wow! Your land of dreams has been more of a nightmare! Sure hope it comes together for you guys and that we’ll see you on that new bike and driving that funny wee car 😁👍
After the last four weeks, car crash, damaged goods etc, a bike can be replaced, a life can’t, all the best for your up and coming adventures
Sorry to hear this Thomas. Looking on the bright side, it’s great news that it didn’t let go when you were riding!!

Head up man! All will be sorted. Loving the content!
Sheesh tough luck but good thing it held together on the ride. Here’s to better times ahead!
Keep your head up! Things will work themselves out. Love the content, so happy you are living out the dream.
It’s all fun and games, enjoy the ride.
Ericeira, Sintra, Peniche, Lourinhã... :) I've passed in those roads also, from Azeitão and back.
Unlucky that your frame broke, but REALLY lucky nothing happend to you while riding it yesterday! Could have easily ended in a horrible crash, glad you‘re safe
Mate, that sucks.Chin up dude and keep smiling things will only get better 🤞👍👍

Yep they’re the best! 🙌
Couldn’t believe that title when I first read it, I was like ‘not ANOTHER thing!’.

Lost count the amount of times I’ve heard your title song sung in our kitchen lol. I honestly think the bigger problem is that haribo haven’t come through with the million dollar sponsorship deal yet. Pathetic.
Stay well, love from your friends you’ve not met yet in Manchester x
and you have your health to be out there. itll come come good soon
Stick it out lad your luck will turn and it will be all worth it in the end!
Chin up Thomas, it can only get better 👍

Oh man that sucks… but don’t quit. Once you get out again, especially in the summer, you’ll be glad you stuck with it… 😁🙌
Plate and 11 screws..least I done it right!

My steel Colnago sends her condolences
Looking good Thomas nice weather 🌞England 🌧🌧🌧🌧🌧🌧🌧
You can only have so much bad luck bud and I think for sure you’ve had all of yours!!
Portugal looks great. Enjoy

Trek will give you a new frame, no worries.
Mate, so gutted for you, absolutely awful, but just like you say, keep going buddy.
Must be due some amazing luck any minute! 💪💪🏁🏁
Keep going with this ace channel.

Awesome! 😁👍
Damn it bud...I am sorry ! Please have a better day ....
You will get there mate. You really will and before you know it. You will be cruising along in the summer breeze and then doing 180 fakies 😅
🤪🤘
Deffo get those Portuguese lotto numbers on Thomas there gonna come in onward and upwards squire 👌🏻
Carbon the drywall of the cycling industry 😉 Hope you find something but many years ago I switched (back) to metals Alum/Steel/titanium all quite light enough these days & can take a hit & walk away
For what it’s worth, I recently had similar damage to my sl7, carbon bike repair in Surrey quoted just £190+vat to repair it.
Spare bike never hurt anyone 😂
Wow! Your land of dreams has been more of a nightmare! Sure hope it comes together for you guys and that we’ll see you on that new bike and driving that funny wee car 😁👍
you are going through the ringer right now man you will make it through
Mateeeeeeee. Hopefully that is all the joker cards in the deck used up now!
Sorry to hear this your not having much he luck ATM.
