Thank you both for doing this video and ride. I love AZ, and used to live Phx, but had no idea there was such a very cool trail in Tucson. Now I want to ride that trail!!
Love your practical approach. Yes to propel type drink. 2 water bottles one with one without. Check out Terry long sleeve bike sun shirts with pockets in the back. You will need leg sun protectors too. Riding into sun cross country will suck you dry. Your approach will serve you well. Bring more food and back up water.
Might want to do a week long shake down like RAGBRAI or Ride across S. Dakota to find out what works camping and riding 6 days in a row. Oh and get some Butt Cream and or Okole Stuff and coconut oil works well too. Can't wait to watch your adventure. Yes to bike mirrow. It has saved me a few times.
great job.im going to do my first bike ride im 74 and i ilve in kansas so im doing the BAK in June this yr. ive watched several of your vids and thats what motivated me. thanks
I am happy to hear you're using therabands ...very useful, and light and easy to carry!!! You have it going on!!! Looking forward to following this journey.
I have been riding for many years but recently moved to a place where I do mostly road riding. I have found a few things that are invaluable - a mirror on my helmet and my Garmin GPS (530) with radar. It is so very helpful to know that a vehicle is coming up behind you (the radar beeps). The mirror just helps you see how big the vehicle is (on bike paths you can see people coming up behind you which is also helpful because few have a bell or say “on your left”)! I resisted having an electronic gadget on my bike for a long time but I get a lot of piece of mind from knowing what’s behind me. The Garmin also lets you accurately know how far you have gone. Love your videos and can’t wait to watch your next adventure! I did the entire Katy Trail last summer with a friend and loved it!
Thanks so very much for answering exactly what I was interested in knowing...your workout routine and what you try to do on a daily basis. So it seems that with your bike training you aren't actually cutting anything else out, but you are adding to your daily routine...wow...impressive! My husband and I are always excited to see that you have posted another video...thanks for sharing all of this and for your continued inspiration.
I love that you don’t have a set plan, don’t have a set mileage, are listening to your bodies and so DARN INSPIRING. I am riding the Erie Canal bike trail that goes across NY from Buffalo to Albany. Thought this may or may not be something you are interested in. Happy Cycling!
That was amazing doing 50 Miles. Way to go keeping active and doing new things . The last time I tried biking when I was deployed to Camp Butmir in Sarajevo. I bought a bike, 50 bucks, and my first try I actually fell over in front of my NCO's. They had a good laugh. I did ride it until my redeployment. I gave my bike away to a local. I haven't been on a bike since then. I might try it again one day.
Impressive! You guys have such a smart and practical method of preparing for the big ride ahead. I'm concerned about the road sections you'll need to stitch together with the off road sections. Bikes and motor vehicles don't mix very well. You literally inspired my 72 year old sister to buy two new bikes, a hardtail and mountain bike and she's been out on the trails in Orange County CA the last two or three weeks riding after a two year layoff due to the pandemic. She subscribed to your channel and can't wait to follow your ride!
It's great to see you both again. That bike ride looked awesome. I can't wait to go on this adventure with you, June will be here before we know it. I'm definitely working on my exercises and prepping for distance hikes come warm weather. I learned alot from your stretching videos that you done. Thank you for sharing those. Take care and I'll wait till the next video. Sending love to you both from Oregon 💖 Stay blessed 🙏
@@demelar it's going to be alot of fun for us. We're doing a section of the Oregon Coast Trail and a 100 mile section of the PCT. It's going to be some great adventures.
Nutrition and hydration is super important - drink before you start, when you start hitting hills it will sap your energy so eat and drink before and during. Bring lots of calories, you will burn a great deal. I learned it the hard way, Good luck, love your attitudes and your inspiration.
Hey girls, another good video, thanks, see, even just a conversation by you in your kitchen can be interesting, especially your description of how you train, and what you do to stay in good shape, will be waiting to see more of your plans develop about the future trip.
Greetings from the Olympic Peninsula in Washington state! Very exciting that you're headed toward Washington state! Bright Blessings! Thanks for the update! 💛💛💛
Loop is always great no matter which section you ride. Weekends are usually pretty busy. It's winter visitor time and as a native of Tucson, over the years I've seen more "snowbirds" finding and enjoying the Loop, which is great.
"DaBrim" helmet visors are amazing. They would be a good addition to keep the sun off your face. Very durable, adjustable, many styles. I own 2 . Thank you for all wonderful videos, you ladies are amazing!
Cincinnati here! I’ve watched all of your journeys and am mainly a hiker that loves biking and am on the Little Miami bike trail here all the time. OMG we need to arrange a Wander Women reception or amazing trail magic for you when you come through! I’m a part of Cincinnati Hikes, Girls Who Hike Ohio, etc. and we could rope in Roads, Rivers and Trails outdoor store here on the trail also. PLEASE feel free to reach out! I don’t know how you would find me through this TH-cam platform, not sure how that works, but I’ll try to keep an eye on this!
You might want to try Tanque Verde towards Mt Lemon before the climb starts. We find the constant pedaling on the flats and avoiding people on the Loop exhausting. The hills give you at least 30% less pedaling on the downhill and make my legs stronger with the uphill.
Hi Ladies! I'm in Cincinnati and can help you if you head this way. Especially because i just read that part of the trail south of Lebanon is closed for 2 years with no great work around. We can shuttle you through though if you are determined.
Hey one of my fav things riding is drinking pickle juice. To me and few of my friends it is just what you need. I also have one water bottle with Gatorade or coke in it and in my 2nd bottle is water with propel in it.
You ladies are truly an inspiration! I only bike 3 miles at the gym now, BUT, someday I’ll do much more! 👍👍👍 What a great resource that trail system is! Tucson should be super proud of that investment in their community! 🍀
Enjoyed your chat with us! Sounds like you have a plan for your upcoming riding adventure but will be flexible and take it as goes! Bike saddles are what gives me the most discomfort- glad yours feels good! I live in WA- wish I could watch you start and wish you well❣️
Wear your delicate bits in gradually...you only have one set. No spares in the pannier. To set off with just an outline plan is fine. You can work it out in detail as you go. The camping kit you use backpacking will suit for this. Don't be tempted to take too much. Really ration yourself to essentials only. My early bike packing trips around Scotland were torture due to me taking so much stuff that getting up hills was painful. I like your attitude to fitness. Keep it simple and work your whole body systematically. Injury prevention is important. Exciting times for you both. I look forward to following your trip.
YAY - rail to trail talk. Love it. So glad the bikes are feeling good. 57 miles! You guys are work-out studs! Very impressive. Can't wait for June!! - Chica
In 1985, my husband rode his bike across the US for 9 months. He went across Montana on Hwy 2. No Rails-to-Trails in those days! But he said the towns and people were awesome, letting him camp in their fields or a city park. He never stayed in a motel and paid for the trip by taking temp jobs on the way for a few days. Anyway, you are bringing back wonderful memories for him. Also, if the route takes you close to Oshkosh, NE, the Crescent Lake Nat'l Wildlife Refuge has a beautiful through road. Great biking. Question: how are you going to get hill training in? You always inspire!!
Yesss I love that y’all are being flexible. On my last tour, I wish I had done more planks. My arms and shoulders were on fire for a bit but it subsided after 3-4 days.
I absolutely love it when you drop a video. Just a thought, I have been using an app called HASfit for lifting for about 4 years now. It is also on you tube. I love it. Can't wait for your next video.
You are wise ladies and train just right for you. Thanks for the update and some info on how you will ride across America. I was wondering if you can tent along the way. When I was biking I always took Gater Aid. You need a lot of water. Keep up the good work (play) and have fun doing it. Take care, be safe.
Great video! I especially enjoyed hearing more detail of your daily lifestyle approach for keeping in shape when not on a big adventure. Also, the way you prepare your bodies for a specific adventure and then ease into it was helpful. So you are planning to begin in Washington state and head east? Let me know how I can help you in Washington. I would love to be your support on this end! I can pick you up at the airport, drive you to the coast, etc… When are you planning on beginning? Feel free to text me.
This will be great adventure for you. Careful though, you might get bit by the cycle bug. A few things that will make any long distance ride easier; Chamois Butt'r sold at bike shops, Cliff Blocks energy chews, Hammer Nutrition HEED electrolyte drink mix. I've tried almost everything out there and these work best. Trust me, I've ridden over 12,000 miles in one year. Have fun out there!!!
I’m so glad I’ve been able to watch your channel! You ladies are great! I love your flexibility, your adventures! We are older parents to an 11 year old. We will go hiking, MTB riding, and all sorts of adventures.
Yep you're both bonkers! But you got to see an honest to goodness roadrunner! That's pretty cool 😎 did you see a coyote painting holes on the bike path too? 🤣
Loved seeing the roadrunner! Are you are considering any comms link between the two of you when on the bikes? Or, will you just stick to one of you yelling to the other, "hey, look at that," or, "time to stop!" Lol!
At home, and when I’m touring, I do Yoga with Adriene’s Yoga for Cyclists. On tour, I do it in my tent. I just use a few sections of a Z-rest pad for my knees. I don’t run the video when I’m touring because I’ve got it memorized. I can’t remember if you’ve mentioned getting a professional bike fit. I would highly recommend if you haven’t.
Curious where you found your bikes in the Springs and where you got good bike fitting service? I live in same general area. Also, did you do a segment on how you set up your bikes, ie - style of bikes (touring or cross-style?), frame materials, tire style (gravel grinder versus road cycle). I know you will be riding on a lot of different surfaces including gravel. Thanks for sharing any input. My hubs is severely disabled from a brain injury, and he dreams of riding portions of the GART with me on his e-tricycle. I ride a commuter style and just don’t find the longer distances comfortable, hence the questions above. Thanks for sharing your journey! I will enjoy learning about the trail. We love the Mickelson and Loop trails! Enjoy 👍
Did I hear Cincinnati Ohio? I think I just squealed like a girl, and I don't usually do that. Please let me know how to keep track of when you will be in my area. I will run screaming naked into the Ohio river if you were this close and I didn't get a chance to see you. You have carried me over the last year through a cancer event and I would love the chance to just wave at you. Thank you
Your comment about sore arms and wrists leads me to suggest changes to your bike setup. It could be any number of things, for example, if your seat is too far back you'll be over reaching and putting weight on your hands. Taking a long trip as you are, it may be wise to invest in a knowledgeable bike person to advise on setup.
Hi Lassies Enjoying the videos as always 😁 In the uk we don't have that kind of cycle routes which is sad because I would definitely get on a bike if we had. I have a question...what do you use for filming your videos. Trying to figure out what I will use on the PCT. Many thanks for your fun videos keep them coming and happy trails x
Let me know when your in Nebraska. The Cowboy trail is still rough Chadron to Valentine, just east of Valentine have your spare tubes ready because of the goat head sand-burrs. A couple of bridges are still out but have detours. Lincoln to Omaha are very good.
A beautiful cycling country side ...
Thank you both for doing this video and ride.
I love AZ, and used to live Phx, but had no idea there was such a very cool trail in Tucson.
Now I want to ride that trail!!
Love this content! Exercise is a celebration of what our bodies CAN do, not a punishment for what we eat!
Love your practical approach. Yes to propel type drink. 2 water bottles one with one without. Check out Terry long sleeve bike sun shirts with pockets in the back. You will need leg sun protectors too. Riding into sun cross country will suck you dry. Your approach will serve you well. Bring more food and back up water.
Might want to do a week long shake down like RAGBRAI or Ride across S. Dakota to find out what works camping and riding 6 days in a row. Oh and get some Butt Cream and or Okole Stuff and coconut oil works well too. Can't wait to watch your adventure. Yes to bike mirrow. It has saved me a few times.
Are there any resources you’ve found particularly helpful as you thought out your route?
Thanks for your channel. Inspired by your outlook on life.
Love watching you ladies...an inspiration for all! Keep up the great adventures
Wow. You guys are doing awesome. Keep trekking. 😀
A great watch. Thanks. Blessings, Teri
Thank you for sharing. I enjoy every video and always look forward to the next
Thank y’all for the great videos! You are such an inspiration ❤️
Can you please do an in-depth video on your bikes? Thanks!

Would love for you gals to put together an exercise video!

Yay, Have a great ride. Thanks for writing, we will be rooting for you.
Your advice is so good! Thanks for everything!
You ladies are so inspirational. I live in western Pennsylvania and am happy to be your trail angel when you ride through.
Thanks Rebecca. Keep track of us as we get close to you.
I rode most of the Cowboy trail a few years ago for BRAN, good trail for gravel bikes
You girls really do inspire me! It was like you were only talking to me. I needed this video!

Way to go! So excited. You guys are gonna be ready for anything.🚵♀️💪
Yesss I love that y’all are being flexible. On my last tour, I wish I had done more planks. My arms and shoulders were on fire for a bit but it subsided after 3-4 days.

Your comment about sore arms and wrists leads me to suggest changes to your bike setup. It could be any number of things, for example, if your seat is too far back you'll be over reaching and putting weight on your hands. Taking a long trip as you are, it may be wise to invest in a knowledgeable bike person to advise on setup.
Hi Lassies
Enjoying the videos as always 😁
In the uk we don't have that kind of cycle routes which is sad because I would definitely get on a bike if we had.
I have a question...what do you use for filming your videos. Trying to figure out what I will use on the PCT.
Many thanks for your fun videos keep them coming and happy trails x
I use my Samsung phone with the Kinemaster editing app
👍🏻❤️
Let me know when your in Nebraska. The Cowboy trail is still rough Chadron to Valentine, just east of Valentine have your spare tubes ready because of the goat head sand-burrs. A couple of bridges are still out but have detours. Lincoln to Omaha are very good.
Thanks for the trail report. Always good to get local intel.
Have to be careful not to get a bad case of "monkey butt" from those bike seats!!!
Do you use Ride with GPS or Strava? It would be great to see the map of your route. Can also use Map my ride.
Annette is using map my ride.
Make sure you have a proper bike fit if you haven't yet before you go.
Ever have to stop for snakes sunning themselves on some of the bike trails?
Not yet.
