Sometimes the best trips go 'wrong'... thanks for watching folks!
You’ve become one of my favourite channels. Thank you for another lovely film. I hope you’re recovering well. I’m lucky enough to live on Mull and loved watching your films of your time here. Best wishes.
Hey Nick, so glad you found us. Mull really blew us away. Honestly one of our favourite places we've been around the world. We'd love to spend much longer pedalling around slower. Do you paddle there?
@@joshandsarahride I hope you do return one day soon. Yes, I do kayak here - I love exploring the coastline. If you do visit, let me know and I'd love to take you out for a paddle. I have a spare kayak and I can borrow another, so the three of us could enjoy a wee camping trip. There's so much to see, as you well know. (I have a fledgling TH-cam channel too). Best wishes.
@@NickRayLifeAfloat we would absolutely LOVE that. Are you on Insta? Perhaps easier to keep in touch. We were both saying during our trip how incredible it would be to paddle there. The coastline was breathtaking!
I liked your ability to improvise, and I like your appreciation of the nature. Keep up the good work!
I have just discovered your channel and wow! I am pleased I did. What a fantastic video. I used to be like you two but now unable to go out due to illness but this has inspired me to try to walk again and take small steps to a healthier me. I love you both and have watched all your video's . You certainly deserve a new subscriber. Thank you
Thank you so much! Really glad you like that they can offer some inspiration. All the best
I love your positivity, in the face of what could be disappointments. You both work so well together. I’m really enjoying your videos.
My new favourite TH-cam channel! It's so cosy. I really hope you guys do some Christmas in the cottage content!!
These vids are stunning and the narration is always on point.
Brilliant…:
This is what ITV and BBC should be making shows about it would be a hit.
Folks love this as do I
Wow thanks! Really glad you like them. We're really passionate about making videos, so it's really great to hear you enjoyed it😁
Best days out are always the unplanned ones or the ones where you change routes etc. Great video again. Josh, your hours spent editing, are well worth it. You make some of the best videos I've watched on TH-cam. Excellent. Stay safe both❤ 🤜🤛
Always nice when everything is a surprise. Thanks Andy, means a lot. Working hard to learn and improve so it's really nice when videos are enjoyed 😊
@@joshandsarahride You're doing a great job mate. 👍
Lovely video, well done for getting out there too!
Love watching you two enjoying all you do.
Another fantastic and mesmerising film. Thank you
I’ve enjoyed many of your videos of cycling England, Scotland, Ireland and your cottage life. I’m in my senior years with many new aches, pains and not great stamina but I would love to cycle many of these areas that both of you have done in a very relaxed pace though.
Thanks again for very enjoyable videos. 15:16
Really glad you enjoy the videos 😁 at a slower pace is the best way to really take these places in, we think!
When things don't go to plan.
Jump up and yell
"Plot Twist!!!" 😂
Loved how you gracefully handled the changes and enjoyed the Now.🥰 🚴♀️🌞🖖
We'll try and get a PLOT TWIST when that next happens in the videos 😅
Absolutely 💯 % the best trips are spontaneous and finding little treasures along the way. ❤
Great video guys, love the narration and how it is all put together.
Thank you for another great video. 👍
Truly beautiful scenery! You live in a part of the world which is a slice of heaven🍁😊
Everytime we cycle through the Lakes we're blown away. Such an amazing part of the UK!
🇬🇧❤️ Beautiful views, love the colours of the leaves on the trees, hope your feeling better, great video..
Yes feeling a lot lot better now and almost back to full health. Trips like these surrounded by beautiful nature definitely help 🍂
Great video as always guys, thankyou!
You did great! Another day inspiring video thanks guys
Cumbrian lass born and bred, although I no longer live there. I am binge watching your videos. Thank you.
Lovely scenery around there and you were determined to make most of things, even if they didn’t all go to plan. Tha ks for sharing the trip.😊
Beautiful photography.
You made the best of a difficult trip.
Thanks for the video.
Well done for a beautiful story. I enjoyed it. X
Love watching your adventures
Another great video 👏🏻👏🏻 hope you recovery fully soon 💪🏻
Great video from you both. Very inspiring and uplifting. 😊👍
What great adventures you have! So many of us westerners have gone soft from living indoors. We lose tgat close connection with all the marvels (and some of the horrors!) of nature. This feels so peaceful. I hurt my back in spring and have been unable to take long walks along the trail near me and I really miss it. It's such fun to see how things change from one season to the next. Well, as I said before, I'm so glad I found you guys. I love your 'can-do' attitude, and look forward to seeing what's next. And oh boy - those star-filled photos are just gorgeous!❤
I definitely do think we get quite used to comfort. Bike touring has taught us that, some of the best and happiest experiences come when you're the least comfortable!
Hope you have recovered from your surgery okay Josh. Visuals are beautifully captured. Please give Sarah time to talk and reflect - viewers will want to hear from her too - it will make your videos more complete.
Yes feeling a lot better and almost at full strength. Thank you 😁 will be sure to include more of Sarah talking too, I'm often encouraging her to pick up the camera and share her thoughts so will try include more of them
Brilliant! Your doing something I always wanted to do! I love it! x x
What an adventure!
Superb.
I love this! You two are so brave and tough.
Thanks 😅
Great adventure, thanks for sharing all the beauty you experienced. Looking forward to the next upload, keep safe. 🚴🚴♀♥
Amazing place,good lifestyle 😊
Just found you on TH-cam. I love the Lake District and we have camped with our children many times there! Being out in nature is a wonderful thing and I am loving being along with your travels there! 💖
just came across your channel and it's mint. Respect to you two xx
Thanks for taking us along. I live in the desert so being with you on your travels through the Lake District and beyond is such a treat!
Where abouts do you live? A desert is a real contrast to these landscapes
Just found your channel about a week ago and watched all your videos! Absolutely brilliant content. Sarah, your happiness beams through the screen and I can’t help but smile watching you, Josh your story telling and narration is mesmerising, you’re a poet. Thanks for the awesome content, please keep it coming. Watching from Australia ☀️ (originally from flat east anglia 😂)
Hi Tara, glad you've found us and really glad you like the videos! We're pretty passionate about them so love to heat people enjoy watching them. We too are originally from.fkat east anglia! Looks like we both made a decision to find more interesting landscapes!
Nice video just found you on the tube love your positivity
Thank you so much!!
I stumbled across. A lovely couple on a journey. Sweet
Your videos are all so beautiful! The places you saw are just spectacular!
Thank you 😊 such incredible landscapes!
Absolutely brilliant vlogs
Live. The dream certainly spurs me on sitting in my little cottage with the wood burning stove ticking over watching your adventures
You brave souls.Hope you will be traveling home before the real winter sets in.🎉😊
This is home🏡
Well done for at least getting out ...hope Josh is OK now...Best wishes to you both
Doing loads better - thanks Andy!
Enjoyed the video very much! I know for me, sometimes you find the best things when they’re unplanned. Glad you had no I’ll effects from your surgery Josh.
This is so true. Love spontaneous trips (most of the time!).
Good trip! You made the best of it and reaped the rewards! Great camera and photograhy work too. Thanks for sharing your experience!
The beautiful conditions definitely helped!
love your vlogs
Cracking video guys loved it 👍
Sitting here watching this vid after missing three days of planned bike rides cuz my body isn’t doing what I want it to do, I feel you. Glad you were able to get out and have some different but awesome adventure!
Ahh man, sorry to hear that. Are you on the mend? It definitely sucks but when you eventually do get out... Wow it makes the delay almost with it
What beautiful views! Thanks for sharing, and though your trip didn't go as planned, that last sunrise was spectacular. First of your videos that I've seen and just subscribed.
It was a very nice surprised after so many twists and turns!
Respect guys! Stay safe. Sending big hugs! ❤ (From W Cumbria) x
Love your channel! Just put my bike in shed for winter, now I have your adventures to watch. WE are lucky in Ontario Canada
we have the old rail trails to ride. Very difficult terrain- but absolutely stunning -that you tackle. Best to you both.
Our winters here aren't as harsh as yours I imagine so our thick tyres mean we can still get out in winter. Sounds beautiful there.
Just come across your channel and really enjoying your videos. Extremely good style of video!! Not too twee, and not too crazy outdoor adventury. Just.....normal! Thank you.
That comment made us smile a lot too - thank you :)
unplanned adventures and beauty is just what the Doctor ordered me thinks! Nice videos guys🙂 Hope youre recovering Josh.
I agree! And yes recovering nicely thank you 🙂
💛
I just subscribed to your channel! I love that you're out at your cottage, learning as you go. One and my sons and his wife went on a 2 month bike early on in their marriage. Such a learning experience for thema and bonding, it was just them. I'm glad you're having this lovely opportunity to enjoy your lives together~
Thank you! Yes it's a beautiful experience that I think can make or break a relationship 🚲
What an amazing trip … those night skies were just breathtakingly beautiful !!! Clearly the road less travelled but oh what a find !!!!! Many thanks for sharing Durban SA 🇿🇦
Big hello to SA! Yes, they really were special and worth the numb toes to stand and watch 😊
Saw you’re channel today for the first time. Love it. Greetings from Holland
Hello in Holland 👋 do stick around and if you like the videos be sure to subscribe so you can catch our latest ones! Thanks
Stonethwaite camp site! Happy memories!
Such a brilliant campsite 😊
❤❤
Just come across the channel, really love it and have subscribed. Darren & Wendy
Hey guys, thanks for subbing!
You do a quality job with the TH-cams 😊 thanks
Thanks!!!!
Absolutely love your content enjoyable to watch and take care from Taranaki NZ
Hey Joanne, thank you, thanks for watching!
Saludos desde España, gracias por mostrar vuestros viajes. Sois mi pareja ciclista favorita. Uso las mismas cubiertas, con una tira de keblad
Just discovered your channel. Surprised on one of your videos when you got a puncture and pushed your bike. Leave inner tube in tyre. Stuff tyre with grass as tight as you can get it. Then cycle. Wet grass in tyre will lubricate inner tube etc and prevent damage to both tube and tyre. Old cyclist trick I learnt 25miles from home. Do you have. Room for a small campervan on ya property for a couple of nights. Cheers from us old pensioners George and Jane. Happy Adventures. 👫🤠👧
Hey there, hadn't thought of doing that before. We were pretty close but for next time we'll definitely give it a try. 25 miles to push is a good ol' distance!
Hi just watched your video were you got loads of ticks. To stop the itching and the stinging from bites as well, rub hand sanitizer over the area it stops it . Lesley
Thanks for the tip! 🪲
Woohoo. insane -bye~ Josh!;))
Just found you two, and although biking isn't for me, the wife and I are enjoying your videos.
Makes us really happy to hear that. We hope that our videos are enjoyable for showcasing nature and places rather than being just for cyclists. The bikes are just our adventure enablers
@joshandsarahride it's great to watch. Nothing on TV nowadays so to watch normal people doing different things is refreshing. But be careful because as your channel grows, people do become toxic. I have had it during my TH-cam time. Keep cycling 👍
@BlueVanMan thank you! And thanke for the words of advice, really enjoying making the videos and connecting with new people. But if course understand with that there can be some down side. I hope the positive will continue to outweigh the negative. We plan to🚵♀️🚵♂️🌏
Hi. Found you today so watching as much as possible. How did you find the cottage? Was it through a website? Thanks.
Hey Sean, thanks for watching 😊 we just found on Right Move. We found it the best way to see rentals across the areas.
I love your videos. Please keep Then coming. Quick question what sleeping bags do you use ? I guess there not massive and bulky as you carry them on the bikes ?
Hey there Tom, thanks for watching! It's a Rab Solar Eco 3. We like it a lot!
We really enjoy these adventures especially now that you are in the Lake District. Do you think you will stay there or have you got plans to move on. You guys look fairly settled now.
Glad to see you are recovering.
We still plan to cycle heading east🚲 that's our dream to explore this big wide world on the bikes but enjoying being here in the meantime
Awww this looks wonderful..❤ You say you moved here.... just wondered where from?
We've moved about a lot but before here we were in North Yorkshire
Well done guys I felt cold watching that lol … so where was the train tickets booked for 👍🏻👍🏻🚴🚴
Ha, yep, the first time we'd been really cold for a while 😅 it's up towards your way. Hopefully rebooking tickets tomorrow (payday!) For next month 🥳
@@joshandsarahride good stuff 👍🏻👍🏻🚴🚴
7:39 That was never going to be easy, especially hike-a-biking, ESPECIALLY after your medical procedure. On a bridleway you knew ‘little about’.
There’s a fine line between adventurous and foolhardy.
Turning back was, in more ways than one, the right choice 👍
Have you done a Q&A about who you are , how you met, & what your lives were before bikes?
Hey Peter, we did a little Q and A when we reached 1,000 subscribers (it's here on YT). If people would be interested, we could do something similar when we hit 10k?
@@joshandsarahride - already watched that one. Love your method of presenting
@PeterPazucha we may do another one as we reach another milestone so stay tuned
Did someone feed the kittens whilst you were away?
Yes, we made sure they were looked after. Although they were a bit timid of someone new
I just found your channel, and I'm curious about your cottage. Do you know much about its history? I know it's about 300 years old, but do you know who used to live there, etc.? I'm quite interested in Cumbria these days, because half my family came from there originally, and I have a feeling some of them might be buried nearby!!
Oh wow where are your family buried? We do know a little about its history and plan to speak about it in an upcoming Q&A
Hi really been enjoying watching your Vlog sorry couple crt
Sarah needs a mic and josh can you please stop talking over the top of sarah when sarah is talking
:)
Yes, this is definitely something we need to work on. We both get very excited to talk 😅
Well the trip went wrong but your video didn’t excellent as usual. I take it you were hoping to travel north but you were probably better not as it’s been pretty crap apart from where I stay. Three stunning days where I couldn’t get out 😢.
Two things I’ve learned if there’s a risk don’t do it and places you want to go will nearly always be there.
Thanks Swampy! Yes, it was over the border but re-planned for next month instead.
It's been crazy how regional the weather has been. It's been pretty windy but we've had such little rain compared to regions nearby. Hope your conditions pick up soon!
Your weather sounds similar to here. I’ve got a route suggestion for you the Affric Kintail Way. I’m fancying it out to the bothy but not sure about after that.
We saw some photos from this route recently. It looks ace. We're booking train tickets today... somewhere north but not 100% where just yet
@@SwampyDuckRidesAgain3636
Well fingers crossed you get decent weather it’s been very erratic with a few beautiful days then cold dark damp days.
@@SwampyDuckRidesAgain3636 we're keeping fingers and toes crossed as the weather can be so changeable late in the year. Thanks
hi just found you I am in Dorset Sherborne lakes are my roots where are you based
I understand that United Utilities want that road shut permanently. There is a petition doing the rounds.
It's been shut for quite a while but the gates had been opened. Now it's very heavily secured and bolted to the walls. Hopefully the petition will make a change!
Just found your channel! I’m in middle Georgia USA 🍑. I must say that I’m really enjoying your content! Brilliant! 🤍🥰
Hey Tammy, thanks so much for watching 😊
