- Sena C1 comms helmets tested! Staying connected is essential for safe cycling while riding with a partner or group. When viewer, Doug, asked how Wendy and I communicate while cycling, I realised he wanted something more sophisticated that our usual shouting, so I researched the market. The market leader in all things sport comms, Sena , kindly agreed to send a pair of helmets for test. You can take calls, listen to podcasts, play music or chat. While these were supplied free of charge, there was no requirements placed on me, or sales commission offered, so this is a no holds barred review of our experience.

About
I am Roy, born in 1952, Living in Lincolnshire UK (the hilly part!) and enjoying cycling more each day. In need of a double knee replacement, I still manage to knock out 150 mile rides - but at a relaxed pace! With so many TH-cam channels devoted to loud, fast talking, testosterone fuelled, cycling heroes, I thought you might enjoy joining us on some of our more relaxed adventures. I say us because I am usually joined by my best cycling buddy, Wendy. Much younger than me (she makes clear), and very petite, Wendy can achieve 100 mile + rides with no trouble. We are slow mainly because we enjoy smelling the roses and stopping to seek out historical sights. This is made much easier as we both ride graves bikes - Wendy a Liv Devote and me a Planet X Tempest Titanium. We often stray from the planned route to dive off down an inviting looking track. I usually add details of the routes we take, on Strava, at the end of each video so you can ride them if you wish. Wendy is prone to bursting into song, although there's no chance of a copyright strike as she only ever remember the first verse and even then it's unrecognisable. We have ridden Edinburgh to Grantham, Coast to Coast on the The Way of The Roses and the Cantii Way in Kent. We sometimes also ride ebikes, mainly if we have things to carry. You will have gathered that we love a bit of banter and let you share in our humour, so please come along and Ride with Roy (and Wendy)
I am always seeking out new and innovative products and was the first to introduce the Tyre Glider. I am VERY selective about what I review and when I do agree to test something, I test it over a long period so I can give an honest opinion.
I am currently designing a long distance tourist route around Lincolnshire - The King John Way, and will launch this in May 2025. We are always pleased to hear from you in the comments, or you can email me at ridingwithroy@gmail.com
I'm a member of the over 50s ebike group on facebook most members are in America and the Sena helmets are widely used by them it's a very useful setup and some new elderly ebikers benefit from their use and help new riders with confidence problems as they state you dont feel so quite alone which can only be a good thing! Great Video Roy as always!👏😜
The QVC channel gets better and better!
@@greigs9384 about time you got that wallet out - my kids need new shoes 😀 Oh, I forgot 🏴
@@RideWithRoyI’m a poor pensioner!
😢😀
Great review Roy looks good😊 Pete 🚴🏻👍
We have the sena R2 which has built in mic and speakers .Plus a much bigger range. I think they are well worth the price .Can't imagine riding without them.
Not sure why they don’t do a small helmet…but as you say makes rides quieter. 😮
Aw, i love that idea. 👍 I'll be able to nag him while he's riding too! 😂😅😂
If they are good for couples, and we are using them on Guided Rides, does that mean that we're a 'couple' now?
@@mikeainsworth4504 you said we wouldn’t talk about that - bitch! 😀
Please tell me Wendy isn’t getting one 🎤 🎵 👂 🙉 #prayforroy
Some of us ride with our wives... No thanks 😂
@@WheelersAtLarge you’re a braver man than I, Mike😀
