      Cheers, Dave. I'm feeling a lot better both on the bike and in terms of recovery. I'll probably stick to 40 milers and warm turbo sessions until new year.

    i look at my bike and say "bugger that".

      Haha - it's a good policy, Ian. A friend at university was a good track & road runner but the typical cross-country season weather used to trigger his asthma so he'd take to the gym between mid-October and early March.

    If proper precautions are taken Gordon, your right, there’s some wonderful riding to be had in the Winter Months.
    It must of been a bit chilly tho on the drop between Buckstones and Ringstone 🥶😁

      The stand-out days are harder to come by and very often they don't overlap with our free-time, Mick.
      I think you have to be retired to take full advantage, or have very flexible working hours.
      It was bitter cold down to Scammonden - I'm just glad the rain didn't follow me.

      Thanks, Ian. I've lost count of the recent Strava references and YT comments referring to winter viruses, and most of us are experiencing that itch to get to normal on the bike. It seems unfair that we're ready for drudgery after a few days but misfiring for a lot longer when we want to return to cycling....

      Good spot, Matt. It was a half-hearted take-off as I approached Buckstones rocks! It had a pal on the stone wall to the right of the frame.

      Cheers, Jason. Recovery greatly improved over Tuesday so it's looking like a 3 week span from start-to-finish, and I'm finding it interesting to plot the time difference between 'symptom-free, fit for work' and 'back to cycling fit'.

    Ho what a beautiful voice, from bike to Britain got talent. Gordon have you thought about doing some guided rides for visitors to the area in summer time

      Well done for staying to the end, Steven. Perhaps there'll be a future show blending It's a Knockout with BGT with a category for singing whilst pedalling uphill. I live in hope.
      I met a viewer who was here from Australia in July '23 and we did a Tour of Saddleworth which went well, and I'd be open to a repeat next year.

    @ajollygoodchap 8 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Yeah I remember when you didn't post last year. I thought you'd pegged out if you recall from my comments. It's good that you talk about what's current and on the agenda, and if that's about your virus we'll then we all learn a bit from your knowledge. I have to say I've never understood why you don't where a balaclava and ear protection to keep your facial extremeties warm. It makes such a difference. If you remember your secondary school geography, it's called a rain shadow. It means we get all the rain as the clouds lift up over the pennines, and by the time it gets to Yorkshire, there's none left!

    • @clippingin1593
      @clippingin1593  8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I used mountaineering balaclavas in my pre-helmet cycling days but once a crash-hat is strapped down there's not a lot of adjustment, which is OK for flat rides with steady effort levels but isn't suited to intermittent hill country.
      In the video it's a 2006 Team Discovery contemporary take on a 'Belgian Winter Cap' - double layer w. extended ear-flaps, good neck coverage, plus a peak for keeping rain off the specs. I find it comfortable to freezing point.
      I'm amazed when I see riders with helmets on bare heads at those temperatures - maybe they just ride at threshold everywhere.
      Combine a 'Belgian Winter Cap' with a fleecy neck gaiter or buff for balaclava level coverage with lots of ventilation options.

    Lovely ride out today, Tadcaster, York, Selby triangle. First time with the winter tyres, mud guards, layers of clothing, lots of effort, but not so much forward movement 😜

      Lovely cycling country, Andrew. Having a fully equipped bike makes perfect sense to me, plus you'll be flying when you switch back to a summer bike! All being well, I'll be heading out there in the new year once I've fully recovered.

      A lot better, thanks. To be on the safe side I'll ration my saddle time until new year, but I'm on the right side of things.
      Now I'll have to find a different excuse for being slow & unfit...

    Hardly a gentle ride though Gordon, up Windy Hill then up the A640 to Buckstones, not my idea of taking it easy!

    • @clippingin1593
      @clippingin1593  8 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Feeling my way back & today suggests I'm over the worst weird virus. I wouldn't have tried this route a week ago.
      Plus, I was bottom-gearing the hills (34x28) so the heart rates and effort levels were only moderate.
      For me this ride is all about the view from the Buckstones traverse. It never disappoints.

      I don't have an online trainer. For the virus-recovery phase I'm holding fixed power at a moderate heart rate - on Thursday it was 1 Hr at 75% MHR followed by a 10 min step-up to 80-85% MHR. It's a pace where I can watch a film.

      Fine thanks, Jason. Heart rate & breathing back to normal.
      I've done a few 25 milers this week but looking at the predicted wind speeds for Sat & Sun (55-60 mph) it's going to be an indoor weekend.
