Summer has finally arrived, hope it lasts. We used to say back in Estonia that "Summer is my favorite week of the year!" 😆

You’ve got this Julie. Had cancer twice and long sessions of chemo. Yes it is not very pleasant. But by being positive it will get you & Mike through it. Take care & see you out and about soon. 😎

Yes, summer has arrived - it's cold, wet and windy

Great spin down through the forest to Lymington. Lovely part of the world.

Haha Chris! 😃 It was so good! 👍

As Mike says, check your cleats, but also check your through axles are still tight. My friends rear wheel came off during a ride! Anyhow, I enjoyed watching your video, will be watching out for the next one.

@WheelersAtLarge Жыл бұрын

Wow! Not had a problem with the thru axles so definitely noted. Thanks for the comment👍

15:15 I recommend the Redshift stem

Thanks for commenting. A good solution for our rough pothole roads👍

That was a very nice long ride. Beautiful weather out there. After watching the gravel rides, the amount of cars on the roads is quite jarring

@WheelersAtLarge Жыл бұрын

Thanks John👍 The extra amount of traffic now is very noticeable and of course Google maps and other apps are using quiet routes more and more so fewer quiet routes for us. BOO!

I've had the absolute terror of being unable to release my foot from the pedal due to a loose cleat screw, this was approaching a very busy roundabout, luckily it was clear and I went straight through, always check the screws now 😅

Scary... But a great reminder. Thanks for the comment👍

That ride looked brilliant, lots of nice roads, scenery and weather! Julie mentioned Mallorca at the end, are you going again already?

@WheelersAtLarge Жыл бұрын

Haha, this was the last ride before Majorca. I didn't want to waste the video so uploaded it anyway 😁 Our next planned trip is the cycling Mecca of (FCC) Derbyshire 😂 ...🚴..🚴....

Beautiful place to cycle ❤ That Cortina must have been going to Beaulieu

@WheelersAtLarge Жыл бұрын

Yes it probably was. The vintage cars we see now are cars we remember 😅 Thanks for watching 👍

Excellent 87 mile ride Mike Julie and crew, When do you manage to put all the huge dish of fruit and cream Julie certainly must have been an energy boost. Yes the roads don't get any better mike i hate to ride 23mm wide tyres these days you would get stuck in the cracks like being on tram lines. Have a fantastic week

@WheelersAtLarge Жыл бұрын

Cheers Terry... 23mm tyres just sounds awful, glad those days are in the past. Maybe we are spoilt with high volume and fast modern tyres...

Hi , watching this video Julie’s saddle looks a little to high ? You can see the way her hips go from side to side . She is losing a bit of power too , and she well be more comfortable. I hope this helps ?? Kev

@WheelersAtLarge Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the observation. Julie tends to pull on the up stroke too so she can look like she's rocking. I will check though... Cheers for the comment 👍

@kevshields1604 Жыл бұрын

Hi , thank you for getting back to me, I see she also rides with her toes , I do too . We all have our ways of riding our bikes . I was just trying to help her out. Can thank you for your videos. I look forward to seeing them. I’ve been riding bikes for 55 years from the age of 11 and I have now retired and have a medical condition, but I still love riding my bike . Please keep the videos coming you both do fantastic work. Many thanks Kev

Mike how are your elite wheels holding up over time??

@WheelersAtLarge Жыл бұрын

So far so good, they've taken a good battering over gravel and they feel solid in the corners and under braking on road. Other than that there's really not much to tell... Which is a good thing👍 Cheers for the comment

@WheelersAtLarge many thanks for the reply!. Its hard to find real world long term tests on things sometimes!.
