Best of the Yorkshire Dales Cycling - in Just 30 Miles?
A fairly short loop up in the Yorkshire Dales but one that I think gives a fantastic introduction to cycling in this area. Does it showcase the very best Dales cycling? Well, come along for the ride and judge for yourself!
Here's the route on Komoot if you ever wanted to try it for yourself - www.komoot.com/tour/1915139134?share_token=ad3toBzBO4ImWYoWFjNbGeYKf9L4FALR79tVtTXuE31oRlTaaT&ref=wtd
Note: Komoot slightly underestimates elevation - it's closer to 2,700ft and just over 33 miles, although that might be me cycling past the camera and going back to collect :). Also if you really don't like busy A-road riding (there's 3-4 mins riding on the A-65) take the Kingsdale option out of Inglet...

Great Dun Fell - Mont Ventoux of the Pennines - Amazing Cycling!
Просмотров 1 тыс.12 часов назад
Every now and again you do a ride that will stay with you for a long time! What's been described as the greatest climb in England and our very own Mont Ventoux, I decided to go and see what all the fuss was about. Okay, I get it now! I've put almost the whole descent in the video to give a better idea of the whole climb than the few moments I was recording on the way up. Let me know if you've d...
Be Safe, Be Seen When Cycling - But What About Dark Clothing?
Просмотров 3,4 тыс.19 часов назад
The weather is really starting to turn colder now, so I've invested in a new winter jacket. Only one colour option available in the store (black!), which got me thinking about the topic of 'be safe, be seen' and whether dark clothing or black really is an appropriate colour to wear on a bike. Do you steer clear of darker clothing when you're out cycling, or use extra reflective kit? What about ...
Do We Sacrifice Too Much For Cycling? || Stunning Pennines in 4K
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.14 дней назад
Hey folks! Welcome to join me on a little mid-week 45 miler in my local Pennine hills, setting up some stunning views and descents along the way! Cycling can take up a fair bit of our time and attention (not to mention disposable income!) and so I wondered out loud (a bit!) on this ride if the sacrifices are worth it? Perhaps no prizes for guessing my own conclusions! Stay safe and happy cycling!
Top 100 Climb For A Stunning View! | Cycling THE RAKE to Peel Tower
Просмотров 808Месяц назад
A little Saturday afternoon pootle out, heading towards the West Pennine Moors and visiting a local landmark I haven't been to in a few years, Peel Tower. On a clear day I think it provides one of the finest views in Greater Manchester; well worth the effort getting all the way up to the top! Looking at the route on Komoot I spotted the opportunity to add in 'The Rake', a top 100 climb which ha...
Do You Need A Different Bike For Winter?
Просмотров 992Месяц назад
Here in the UK, summer isn't officially over but nobody seems to have told the weather! A very autumnal feel to rides at the moment and so thoughts are turning to colder days on the bike and more challenging conditions. A few thoughts on the topic of winter bikes as I go looking in my local hills for an ancient marker with a Latin inscription. Any excuse for a bike ride and a big dose of the Pe...
5 Cycling Tips for Easier Climbing || Stunning Pennines in 4K
Просмотров 939Месяц назад
I thought it was about time I tried a local (ish) climb called 'Big Jack', high up in the moors to the north of Calderfornia! The weather was superb, the views typical jaw-dropping Pennines stuff and Big Jack was a little beast of a climb. En route I share a few thoughts on making climbing a bit easier. I'm very much at the average/below average level when it comes to road cycling, but these ti...
100km Ride on the Boardman SLR 8.9 - Time for a New Bike?
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.Месяц назад
Back out on the road back after a couple of months off. I fancied trying an 'easy' Audax distance but also one with plenty of hills, so headed off towards Bronte country and deeper into the Pennines. Let's just say I've done easier rides than this one! I've been riding the Boardman SLR 8.9 for two and a half years now and so wondering out loud in the video whether it's time to replace it. Happy...
5 Tips for Solo Cycling
Просмотров 635Месяц назад
Those of us who are used to riding solo may have forgotten what a daunting prospect this can be. So a few thoughts from a local (solo!) mid-week ride, on what you might consider and how to prepare for solo cycling. In the video I limit this to '5 tips' and I'm sure there could be many more! I'd love to know what advice you might give someone who asked for successful solo riding tips? Stay safe ...
URBAN CYCLING ADVENTURE - RIDING THE UK'S ONLY CIRCULAR MOTORWAY
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.2 месяца назад
In the spirit of micro-adventure and getting to know the local area better I set off to see if I could follow Manchester's orbital motorway (the only fully circular one in the UK, according to the RAC!), the M60. Would it be possible to stay within a stone's throw of all that fast-moving traffic but on quiet roads and trails? Happy cycling, folks! P.S. if you notice it, apologies for the small ...
Wahoo Elemnt Bolt V2 Review || Should You Buy This GPS Bike Computer?
Просмотров 2,1 тыс.2 месяца назад
Join me on a mid-week local ride where I talk about my new Wahoo Elemnt Bolt V2 bike computer and attempt to show you some of the features and functionality that I use, like and don't like. Given the price tag, I would hesitate to call this a budget GPS but it's certainly at the cheaper end of the scale when it comes to cycling GPS units. Should it be overlooked in favour of the larger devices ...
Solo Bikepacking in the UK - Easy Yorkshire Dales Overnighter
Просмотров 1,2 тыс.2 месяца назад
Setting off into the Dales in late afternoon, just as all the day trippers were packing up and heading home. A high wild camp, stunning little loop in 3 Peaks country and back at the car in time for brunch! The epic rides are great but these little overnighters can be just as rewarding! Hope you enjoy the clips I stitched together. Happy cycling, folks! NOTE: I've described this as an 'easy rid...
Bikepacking Kit Failures - Unlucky or Unacceptable?
Просмотров 1,2 тыс.2 месяца назад
In somewhat chatty mode on little spin out in my local hills, talking about a raft of equipment failures on my last bikepacking trip up in Scotland. We all know that gear is subject to wear and tear (particularly by its nature, outdoor gear) but with at least one of the bits of kit that failed I must say I feel a bit hard done by. Do we expect too much from our gear these days? Is the quality n...
UK Bikepacking - The Badger Divide (Amazing Route!)
Просмотров 2,4 тыс.2 месяца назад
The Badger Divide is a 210 mile bikepacking route from Inverness to Glasgow, travelling through the beautiful (and challenging!) Highlands of Scotland. Too tempting a route not to give it a go and I hope you find something of interest in these little clips taken along the way! As I mention in the video, if you'd like to see the first few miles of the route (which I didn't film on this ride), I ...
Bikepacking or Bicycle Touring - Is there any Difference?
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.3 месяца назад
Join me for a ride out in my local hills, trying to get ready for an upcoming bikepacking trip - or is that a bicycle touring trip? Hmm! Is there any difference and does it even matter? Well, that's the topic of a bit of chat along the way today, also taking in a nearby Second World War site and some sections that probably haven't seen another cyclist in years! P.S. Breaking in a new GoPro on t...
