A gravel bike trip full of endurance advice

- Опубликовано: 9 апр 2024
- Sally and I ride a 2 day gravel version of the Capital Trail. A multi day endurance bike packing trip from the city of Edinburgh and into the Scottish borders. We adapted the route a bit to better suit our gravel bikes. We set off from the town of Selkirk and traveled off road and over 2000m of ascent to finish in Edinburgh. We stayed in a little Air BnB and enjoyed the restaurants of the town. Day 2 was shortened thanks to storm Kathlean. In this video we share our experience of endurance trips, discuss kit, bikes and nutrition.

If you ever want to share your recipe for rice cakes or other home made cycling snacks in a video, I'd to totally up for that.
Noted!
Next video please 😊
Love to see people just genuinely enjoying their cycling
1:25 the Mapdec community demands the recipe now, not someday!! 😁
Demands. 😮
@@Mapdec Correctamundo, Paul! 😉 But in all seriousness, looked like a great trip, sad it got cut short a bit! Thanks for taking us along!
Ginger and Miso rice cakes next video please you cannot leave the subscribers hanging like that 😊
This is awesome! Just want to say it’s pretty noticeable “the getting in shape journey”. You have lost significant weight.
Thank you.
That wee rocky path at 2.40 is 5 mins from my doorstep. More suited to a full suspension MTB than a gravel bike. Glad you made it down in 1 piece👍 If I had known you were passing I could have got you to give my gravel bike a once over😁
Cheers✌️
Nothing screams adventure more than 30mph wind and hailing rain blowing in your face 🤣🤣,
Ps. I lived here in Edinburgh for 5 years, when the wind is past 20mph thas a no from me for a casual ride.
Excellent..Thank you!
Great vid dude.. awesome seeing you out riding buddy those flapjacks looked very nice.. ride on.. Pete
Once I've got my new mountain bike I'll try that route looks good.
Good work getting down that descent with the wall next to it. I always have to walk bits of it on the gravel bike!
Haha the water running down it made it look easy, Just about did it, one little dab.
Cracking video. More Sally please! Rode some local lanes yesterday. They're getting more like gravel every day, so tubeless is good!!
Will do!
You should get a Mudhugger Fender sponsorship! Fun ride.
Loulabelles is a brilliant Café, we popped in there bikepacking the Tweed Valley Cycleway last year😊
How delightful !!!! And living here in Texas ???? ,Thank you for the countryside views!!!!
Does it ever rain in Texas?
Oh yes!!!! In the dallas area, storm weeks bring in the spring /summer season .. then it's hell hot and dry forever - then storm weeks bring in the fall season. And it's beautiful and temperate until spring. Honestly - it's a weird weird area....
-and there are so many different climate patterns all over the state because of it's size- it's nuts.love seeing your area and also your channel ...
Loved the vid nice to mix it up, And now the elephant in the room, The rice cake recipe please Paul?
Coming soon!
Hahaha that's my mate's trail ,you'll be in for a tuff ride,pop by Greenrig Cycles in Falkirk if you're about this way for a coffee.
Will do. I often pop in to bike shops. Sometimes I’m welcome, sometimes not so much.
@@Mapdec hahaha welcome here man .

Hi Paul….slightly off topic but do you have a favourite between a Garmin 515 or Exposure Trace tail lights….just wondering which you would choose to cycle across Europe! Thanks for another great video.😊
Exposure. Very reliable.
@@Mapdec thank you
Well, you did start this debate. The best chocolate bar is actually a biscuit and raisin Yorkie 😉
This has been the topic of workstand banter today.
Topic, ha ha , I see what you did there,
Yeah I would have fallen off loads of times
