What to do when you have pain in your wrist while wriding? I have a flat bar and my wrists are hurting at +10km. The saddle is in good place, good height. I don't know :(

clean your bike

Hi Richard, Great Video and you're right, the King Alfred Way is tough! I did it solo in May this year and although a beautiful route in many places but it relies totally on the weather.

Camping footage at the beginning was a nice bonus.

Missed it this year but "that climb" if it was Tetford you mentioned, was in it last year. Nice Audax and my first

Bless hate it when something like that happens. Good video tho.

well done Richard

Another great video Richard the trails looked amazing and is definitely one on my radar now will have to be gravel bike though as don’t own a mb yet! Thanks

Ughh don't like coffee 🤢🤢 I'm tea drinker semi skimmed milk taa 2sugars😂😂

Forgot to release this video earlier this year - hope you enjoy!"

Great adventure there Richard and well done doing it of the back of APN 💪

Nice view of the mixture of terrain. I don't think I've got the legs for 140km in one day, let alone a full on weekend. Maybe one day.

How are you finding the bike Richard? I am facing a first world dilemma where I could get an epic to replace my procaliber. But l'm not 100% sure as I do love my trek. A little extra comfort, especially downhill would be good. At the same time I don't want to sacrifice the speed of the trek on the road/flats.

What size tyres do you have on that bike?

Richard - if you've got the 46/30 Absolute Black (which is the lowest - their other subcompact is 48/32), that's quite a drop from the standard 50/34 Ultegra. So, did you have any problems lowering the front mech sufficiently and setting it up ok? And do you get reliable shifting at the front? Cheers.

Great video Richard and that route is now on my list. Regarding your rain jacket in the bottom of the bag, I bet like me you forget there is a zip in the side of the Tailfin to get in quickly to the bottom 🤣 Quick question regarding parking up and leaving your van for three days, do you not worry about it at all?

Fantastic video Richard. The views were brilliant. Some history round that way.

Excellent, I've got this on my to do list. Thanks for sharing!

Good video sir. Some parts of the route look like tracks I end up on when I take a wrong turn😊. What phone navigation app were you using?

You could have won a speedboat! 🤣

Great route Richard thanks for sharing Top man

Love Norfolk, some great gravel there as well compared to our Lincolnshire bridleways..

Theres nothing on that bike, mines always packed to the hilt. Weighs a ton.

Thank you Richard

Brought back some great memories of when I rode this in May this year, starting from Thetford. Looks like you had some much better weather than me; luckily I'd opted for hotels, don't like to even think about wild camping in heavy rain

Great content Richard love watching your adventures , keep adventuring

Really enjoyed this video.👍

Good video

Wife and I bikepacked this last summer, mostly good weather, loved it. Thanks for posting. 👌

Richard you need to get a Woman in you your life to organise you. Or would that cause any complications. Aside from that a great entertaining vlog. Ps the first comments come from my wife. But as the politicians say I couldn't possibly comment. Regards from someone who has to listen to their wife when they are in earshot Regards Bob.

The Devils highway actually exists. New Jersey USA has a 1/8 mile stretch designated Rte 666. The legend of the Jersey Devil lives. However, I've been everywhere it should have been!

UK "gravel" eh! I wonder though, do you think there is anywhere else in the world where you an ride thousand year old 'traditional' rights of way, long defunct drovers roads and byways, old canal towpaths, recently abandoned rail routes, and just occasionally that real 'true' hero gravel? Heck, even our roads offer a certain 'off' road feel! Lucky us! 🙃

Did you drop the garmin

The only bike I use these days is a ALT bike 29 x 2.25 with a pinion belt drive .Yes they are more expensive but then you only need one bike .I find it covers everything & very little maintenance.

I found the Wahoo roam 2 is way more robust ,but I only need it for navigation.

Fantastic video Richard. Only a Yorkshire man could manage that ride.

On the Komoot list ready for when the good weather arrives, if it ever does! (Might also wait until later in the year when the foliage has died back a bit!)

Great video Richard! Your camera does a much better job of capturing the views off the South Downs than my photos.

Brilliant video Richard.

Such a great event, nice video 😁

So, three days, 300 miles and 24000 feet of climbing? That'd be definitely outside my comfort zone but 'doable'. 36 hours moving, but how much actually sleep did you take Richard?

Do you think you have the right bike this time

Great ride there. Bit of useless information for your Horncastle question, it was a roman fort that was fairly rectangular and enclosed most of the centre of town and apparently still stood over five yerds high in the 1700s. Caistor roman walled settlement probably fortified, Horncastle and Ancaster definitely, Grimsby rumoured outer fort also old skegness and Boston? All were for the protection of Lincoln. Horncastle fort played its part in the civil war after the battle of Winceby as the outward opening gates resulted in the death of many of the remaining royalist by the parlimentarian cavalry.

Great video Richard.

Vittoria tyres are terrible. I've had multiple road bike versions and they've failed miserably. They may have improved since then of course.

Default Yorkshire summer weather setting.....
