Did mine with my mountain bike while my friends have road bikes! 🙏🏼

Really good advice. I can only add few minor tips: #1 sunscreen if applicable #2 extra shell/shirt (if riding not in balmy weather). #3 train line nearby if for some unforeseen reasons you must bail out

Really good tips, now I don't have any excuses.

Good advice there. My ambition, when I started to be a "serious cyclist", was to able to ride 100 km any time I wanted. Happily can do that now, just whacked one out today getting ready for the ATB 210.

When a video has 0 dislikes u know it's good

I am 50, last year I did my first 100k around Hamburg. Wrong preparation (2 months only), wrong diet (I ended up bonked) wrong tactic (I was left alone for 30 mins) and with a slightly wrong bicycle (cyclocross with just road tires). I enjoyed it so much, leading me to participate in cx events, crits, brevets, road cycle events, still going. I only bought myself carbon wheels, road shoes and pedals and a longer stem.

I saw this 2 weeks late! 😅 suffered quite a bit over 4.5hrs. Great stuff!

Thanks mate. Im about to do my first 100km and im nervous. Thanks for guiding me through what I can expect on my ride

Did mine today on my charge plug single speed wish I had gears! Happy I did it though :)

Today I ride 50 Km after watching this video I am planning for 100 Km. Thanks Sir.

Good advice, thank you! I turned 50 earlier this year and did my first long rides this summer (mostly on gravel) - three of them over 100k in and around Oslo, Norway, where I live. It's a great idea to save something to look forward to for the last 20-30k - tailwind, long descents, or nice smooth tarmac after 70k on gravel:)

So i did my 1st 100km today. I do 50 km rides 2x/week all the time and have done 60/70/80 and 90km in the weekends. So 4 me no prep. its winter in The Netherlands @ the moment but a buddy i know hunts and had about 4kg of wild boar ready for me 2 pick up. Woke up after a bit of a late night with 1 too many glasses of wine but felt clear and fresh. had some toast and a cup of tea. The 1st 45 km i was flying with a back wind blowing @ about 15kph. collected 4 kg of wild boar and set of once again. Had a power bar and some fruit. The wind really started getting strong by then 20/25 kph head wind all the way back. So head down and use the triathlon steering bars. final average in the end was 26.3 kph and elevation change off 500 meters. Legs feel great and it was very enjoyable. in short no prep, just a nice ride with 4kg of wild boar along 4 the ride. PS, Just did not enjoy the wind that much. Cycle @ 30kph, turn the corner and your down and struggling to stay @ 22kph.

Lovely info! Doing my first 100k tomorrow.

Great video, Cameron. I'm going for my first century in a decade tomorrow. I'll be sure to use your nutrition recommendations. Thanks! Another video I'd like to see is safe places to ride, off the streets and away from drivers with anger management problems (you know what I mean).

thanks sir! great video, tomorrow I will try to hit 110km riding my 29er hard tail mtb, this video help me to prepare for my big ride, thanks again! ride safe sir! :)

Awesome video, planning on doing a 100km bike ride next year. This advice will probably make it way more enjoyable

I'm actually about to do my 100km ride tomorrow in Montenegro which is very mountainous and I'm bloody well looking forward to it. 😊

Great video. Did few 70-80km rides last year. This year going to hit 100 not once :)

Just done first 65km 2 days ago. Looking fwd for my first 100k. This really helps.

Did my first 100km ride in 2019 summer. It was nice to do through an event because the organisers took your belongings to the end of the event for you, and there was no fear of getting stranded. The only prep I did besides the 2km commute was a 70km ride, which was way harder because it was solo, and I was carrying my backpack and my heavy d lock. I got a £200 road bicycle which was nice, with drop handlebars, and it was comfortable enough for the 100km ride. This summer, I'll be getting a nicer road bicycle and a cheap go pro and will actually train and try to build up to a 120mile distance (might take till next summer) since that's the ironman triathlon distance. After that, I'd like to do the London to Paris, and also do a marathon and combine running and cycling in one day.

Very informative, I'll be sure to use your advice on the saddle tomorrow

I am 59 years old took up cycling 6 months ago, did my first 50ks yesterday and now aim for 100 by the end of this year. I live in North East Thailand so it’s very hot and humid as such l ride very early AM.

Yes my tires are flat but it's slow punctured and that motivates me to get to the next petrol station faster(I do keep emergency repair equipment and spare tubes) but it's the motivation , no dust though

Did a 250km last week, it was awesome! Planning something for the weekend. But found this vid while waiting for my brother to come over, I already washed(spoiler alert!) the MTBs - we are going out for a 100 ride in heavy rain(still bikes gonna be MINT!! :D) - just to amplify the experience. #velominati

doing my first 100 this year in the around the bay in october ...

doing my first 100 km in 10 days. Really helpfull video. Thanks!

trying 100km tomorrow with a mountain bike and a full backpack, all this for staying at the beach for two nights. gonna be an adventure

That's informative

Ima do this on a scooter🛴

Great video- thank you

Loved the video

Love from india

thanks sir

I did 72 yesterday after not biking for months. I am in pain but at least the views were nice

Nice explain like ittt

Mini pork pies and jelly babies... completed it m8

Ive completed the century 4 times now, 3 times on road and one on a gravel trail, all four times on a mountain bike. Anyway i went out and bought myself a road bike to make rides of this distance easier and more comfortable. Anyway since I’ve bought my road bike i have not done a ride of this length because suddenly my parents don’t want me to, they say it’s unnecessary but i love the long rides, going out of my local suburbs, seeing new sights and in general just having a bit of an adventure to a place i have not been before. The other thing is i am 18 now and i don’t want to be held back from doing what i love because my parents want to wrap me in cotton wool protection. Any ideas on how i can convince them to let me do these rides?

Me who rode 200km watching this 😂 etheir way nice video, i used to bring some sandwich with 2 slices of bacon and some cheese in it, next to that i used energy bars.

i like your xp Ty

Doing my first 110km adventure this week.. So glad that i found this video, just thanks man! Also, i am planning to do this with my MTB, so, wish me luck😜! One question.. What should i expect about how many hours this ride will take, are we talking bout 6, 7 or more?

Im 90kg, new at cycling but have been training for years. Since im heavy, should i be eating more thsn 50G of carbs per hour, to make sure i dont run out of energy.

Did my first 100km in 3h40 min today.(solo) Is that fast ?

Did my first 100 today
