If ever you are in Canada in the spring you would be a most welcome addition to the Canadian spring classic, the Paris to Ancaster. The scene here is (as it is everywhere) very welcoming and I am pretty sure we could find you some accommodation for your stay 👍👍👍
That sounds great! When I’ve got some money one day I definitely would like to visit Canada. I do know a couple of people that live there and it looks SPECTACULAR 🇨🇦😀
You did well to smash a pb at the Eden Parkrun. (FYI Free entry to participants and family members after Parkrun!) Great route but a toughy! 1 x is a good way forward for the bike but what about entering some running events too for next year?! Could be a running and cycling channel! 🚲🏃🏻♀️
Thank you Tony, I genuinely surprised myself with the parkrun! I resent having to spend more money on 1x just to achieve a basic level of function but let’s hope it works. Maybe I will set myself a running challenge, watch this space! 😀
Good to see you. Running sounds good and there may be some cross over benefits to your cycling? Fab beach at the end and good to hear you enjoyed the ride. Thanks for sharing, 🚴🏽
Yes, I think my residual cycling fitness helped my running and perhaps the running will also benefit my cycling in return! Thanks for your support Chas 😊
Haha so true Szi 💸 It’s a shame London is a 6 hour drive away or I could come ride fast in circles with you and all the other cool people. Hope to see you IRL some time soon 😊
@amerridesbikes love your content, feels honest and not made up for the sake of a video. I like the look of your 3t but the aftersale support seems a bit rubbish.
Great to see you again, I had problems with a bike I bought here in France. After two months it was not working , I returned it to the shop were I had purchased it. After 5 months of them returning the bike fix and the same problem still there. They agreed to give me a full refund. So not all bad in the end. I hope you have better luck in the future with yours xx
Glad to hear you got sorted in the end. I bought mine from a shop in the Netherlands so it’ll be hard to return it and they never answered my last email, which is frustrating. All luck is gratefully appreciated, thank you Richard 🙂🙏🏼
I have just subscribed to your channel and have enjoyed the videos I have watched so far. Just a thought, maybe your motivation will come not from pressuring yourself to always compete, but to motivate others to get out and ride their bikes. At 65, I have just started to get out on my bike and although my knowledge is somewhat poor, I’m enjoying picking things up as I go along. Last year I rode the Hadrians Cycleway route 72 from Ravenglass in Cumbria, to South Shields. I did it as a challenge to myself but also to raise money for Cancer Research. I did the ride over four days without putting any pressure on myself to attempt to break any records, and really enjoyed the experience. The next ride I’m doing is Ride to Sun, which is on the 22nd June next year. It’s starts in Carlisle and finishes in Edinburgh, and you ride the 100 miles through the night. The ride is free to enter so you will just require train tickets from Cornwall to Carlisle and a return from Edinburgh the following day. Good luck with your riding and I hope you can get your bike sorted.
Glad to see you back!!!! Life can be a stressful sometimes but keep smiling 😃. Keep getting out there. Good luck with the running, im not great at running but might give it a go...youve inspired me 😊...c u on the next one 😊
Well done Amy fantastic to see you back, Really appalling that 3T seems to have washed their hands of obviously is a design fault, my friend had an orbea had a similar problem damaging their frame and although it took 4 months Orbea replaced the frame, this in my opinion is what 3T should have done or at least the front mech. Enjoy your single chain ring rides, don't get down hearted things will change and come good for you. Looking forward to seeing your next video
Somebody messaged me to tell me they spent £8k on a 3T and it too hard a massive fault which they were reluctant to do anything about. It’s difficult because I purchased it from a shop in the Netherlands and they were initially helpful but now don’t reply to my emails. 3T have never replied to my emails (same as the guy with the £8k disaster, they clearly have form 😑) I’ll keep you posted, one day I will have a working bike!!
Welcome back looks a nice ride just want to say keep your chin up and wishing your luck turns round soon great to see you back lovely lady and don't give up ❤X I probably speak for others to we are all behind you ,stay safe and keep riding X ,looking fantastic
Lovely to see you again however really sorry to hear about your continuing bike woes and having to drop from Badlands. @3tcycling ought to be ashamed of themselves! Still great news about the running; I came to it late in life and consider it an achievement to get under 40 mins 😂so a great performance from you from a standstill start. I find running a great alternative to cycling, just pop your shoes on and out the door with none of the pre-ride faff of cycling! And yes motivation comes and goes, really got into cycling over lockdown however as a motorcyclist like you I haven't my bicycle in weeks!
Yay here’s to the more nature newbie runners 😀 SO much less faff but now my ankles hate me. Hoping to keep it up though. Also hoping 3T may one day just … work. Sigh. See you again here soon, thanks Bob 😊
Lovely to see you back, looking forward to hearing your story, totally agree with you about the ‘summer’ weather!! Fingers crossed for a lovely Autumn (without the winds) 🙌🏻🚴♀️
Good to see you back. Good luck with the bike and running. I was a runner then a biker. If you can do one you can do the other. Have patience and stay positive. Take care, Al
I wish there was some way to influence/induce a bike manufacturer to support you. It's far fetched I know, but Ribble or Scott or Trek, somebody ... _come on_ !!
Thank you. It really is frustrating with the retailer being in the Netherlands and manufacturer being in Italy. Sigh. I hope some resolution will come though 🙏🏼
What ever makes you happy. 😊
Thank you Barry 😊

Great to see you back - and still hanging in there despite the ongoing and depressing 3T situation.
Looking forward to the next one x
Thank you Penny, hoping to see you again soon 😊
When life gives you a kicking...which it has too from time to time.....you just kick back even #HARDER
Yasss, love this 😎🙌🏼
@@amerridesbikes ,
just keep being the fighter you know you are...that's the key 👌🏻
You always make me smile . Thank you
Thank you Rob 😊
Great to see you back……always honest and entertaining.
Oh, I forgot, totally agree with cardiaccyclist7477 above, if you can make it to Canada, you’d love Paris-Ancaster.
Thank you, it’s good to be back 😊

Hope your right about a late summer... Spent so much time this year riding in crap weather and drying shoes 👎 keep smiling.
So frustrating isn’t it. We should all be prescribed a sunny holiday shouldn’t we!
@@amerridesbikes guilty your honour... Ive had several this year 😎
Good to see you back out on the bike. Hope the recalcitrant 3T gets wrangled into a better form of operation.😁❤
Thanks Kevin, yes having a working 3T would be advantageous wouldn’t it!
Good to see you. Running sounds good and there may be some cross over benefits to your cycling? Fab beach at the end and good to hear you enjoyed the ride. Thanks for sharing, 🚴🏽
Yes, I think my residual cycling fitness helped my running and perhaps the running will also benefit my cycling in return! Thanks for your support Chas 😊
Cycling is a bloody expensive sport, come race in Herne Hill, it's only a tenner :) Nice to "see" you Amy!
Haha so true Szi 💸 It’s a shame London is a 6 hour drive away or I could come ride fast in circles with you and all the other cool people. Hope to see you IRL some time soon 😊
She's back 😊
Haha yes, hi Chris 👋🏼

Ah that’s great! I can’t run but I try anyway so I’m totally here for you giving it a go 😀
Can you bring us along on your next park run please, I have just completed my 40th here in Surrey, it would be interesting to see 👍
Oh amazing you’ve done 40! I’m not very good at filming whilst running but I’ll give it a go for sure 😀
Yeess running is good too👍👍

Thank you Geraldine, it’s good to be back. Let’s hope an Indian summer arrives … 🤞🏼
Good to see you back. Good luck with the bike and running. I was a runner then a biker. If you can do one you can do the other. Have patience and stay positive. Take care, Al
A lot of people seem to have come from running to biking. I’m obviously backwards 😆 Thanks Al ☺️
3T should sort you out if they were any kind of decent company.
Aww you sold Pauline? 💖
I’m not gonna buy a 3t .
You’ve made a great choice there. 1/10, so not recommend 3T 😅
You deserve another bike. This is really bad and its not a cheap bike.
Even if it was a cheap bike it would still be pretty terrible service. Thanks for your support 🙂
you are back yay!! #gofundamersnewbike
Haha I just wish the one I had worked!!
I wish there was some way to influence/induce a bike manufacturer to support you. It's far fetched I know, but Ribble or Scott or Trek, somebody ... _come on_ !!
Thank you. It really is frustrating with the retailer being in the Netherlands and manufacturer being in Italy. Sigh. I hope some resolution will come though 🙏🏼
