Nice one and great footage of the ride. That Staircase is a killer, but the reward of the roads and views after well worth the effort.
Totally agree with you the roads after are just amazing wish I had more time to soak it all in.
Cracking video Aky and well done for finishing. I was in the palace jersey at the end, would love to see the unedited footage of us giving you a pull home. Would you be able to share it ?
I can share what I have how would you like me to get it to you?
That Palace Rapha setup though 😉😍
You did look cool’s as
Wow, I'm knackered just watching that! massive well done, great content as always.
Thanks a ton Becky glad you enjoyed and thanks for following 🙌
Great vid mate well done brilliant editing as usual 👍
@@gimpsngumps Glad you appreciate the editing, I do put some time into it, maybe too much.
I am not a biker but you are so inspiring Aky and great commentary and amazing ride really enjoyed this video keep it up :-)
I appreciate the feedback Abid, hopefully I can inspire you to take up this great sport.
Well done dude awesome ride great scenery think I might give it crack next year after I’ve done with my marathon
May as well tick it off, it’s a worth while event and well organised
Nice one mate, great to see you there. Our ride times were only 4 minutes apart. Those hills were amazing! Also...damn...you've put it online...😂
Oh really I just pootled round to be honest other than the last 5 miles ish that was a bit of a work out with the Rapha Palace guys. I was expecting the hills to be a bit more brutal but a great day out nonetheless. See you at the Facey 50’s don’t be a 🐓
@@BeardonaBike yeah, I spent a lot of it on my own TBH, but the legs still felt decent at the end despite me blowing up (energy levels). I'm actually booked in at Santa Pod that weekend already, crewing with a mate in his drag car. 🤦
3:30 the train sound effect hahaha
Haha I do try sometimes 🤣
Love this, I did the Grand Fondo this year (the 200k), I thought I spotted you at some point but wasn't sure :)
@@vinylandvelo Not that many riders that look like me 🤣 Hope you had a good one?
Nine one mate.. Those roads after the sugar loaf 😍😍
Video didn’t do it justice, ask Martin
Great video Aky it looks a beast of a ride. Those feed stations looked incredible. The Fred could take some tips from them :-)
They were great, could have done with some Yorkshire puddings and gravy with the potatoes 🥔
@@BeardonaBike full Sunday roast 😂 I could have done with that when we rode through the dales
Epic..! Top effort 💪
Thank you 🙌 Glad you enjoyed it.
Brilliant vid!!. Great performance mate thought you were struggling at one point sugar overload maybe lol!. Nice to see you finish so strong!!.
Yeah I had a moment I usually do, I think it’s lack of sleep. Routine gets thrown off, but I’ve noticed I usually bounce back. I stopped with the gels and had plain water and savoury snacks last 1/3rd
@@BeardonaBike definitely the cheese and onion pasties saved the day lol!!.
Thanks for the vid. I've signed up for next year's devil... Er.. Can't wait 😂
@@CyclingallthetimeJust get the endurance training in, the climbs are all easy enough it’s only the Devils staircase and even then it’s not that long. Might go back for that cheese on toast and potatoes 🤣
Amazing video and really useful info throughout the video. The climbs looked brutal but some of the views were 😍
Looking forward to your next challenge and adventure 🙌🏾
I think this sportive would suit you Shezzy if you’re doing the 312 next year may as well get this ticked off
🚴love it!
Hi Mate
Great effort on the ride
Just some help with the place names
Rhigos is pronounced - Rick Hos
Bwlch is pronounced - Bull ccc
Penyfan - Pen a van
Again very well done on the ride
Rob (from Rhigos)
I wish we had connected prior to uploading the video. Can’t believe I said Rygoes 😂
Great video and your a great rider, but 30 mins to change an inner tube😮
That included ride a bit stop pump it, ride again stop and pump it, it was a slow puncture and then eventually give in and got it changed. The micro pump I had didn’t help 🤣
Fantastic ride, Aky. I'm glad I've seen it once, I'll give it a miss m8 😂
Would you ride it if Sham goes?
You've got more chance of me being there than Sham
also we wouldn't get by the first feed station 😂
@@kevstephen7920 come on bro man up let’s get it done next year just pray I recover soon
Come on Kev your letting yourself down
@@ShibliSattar I'll be 58 and can't climb for toffee, you're not exactly selling this to me lol
Nice to see you back😀💪Best regards Martin
Thanks Martin 🙌
Great video bro shame I couldn’t make it once recovered il be back to join you but let’s not compare rears like you did in this vlog 😂😂😂
We both had flat rears, shame Dr wasn’t here with his 200 psi
MashaAllah nice video
Very well done completing the Ride
Great video mate. Chapeu on that ride - looked bloody tough from the start.
It was just a bit miserable with the weather, it warmed up half way through though. It’s hard to tell how hard to push yourself if you’ve not done any of the climbs before. May give it another crack next year
Epic
Epic..
Proper
Wa-Alaikum-Salaam & a massive well done my brother.
Thanks for watching mate, on to the next event 😂
Mashallah strong ride .. what head unit are u using .. find the wahoo a bit fiddly on the navigation
The is a 1040 Garmin had Wahoo bolt before and enjoying the bigger screen on this.
Great effort. Rhigos pronounced Rick-oss. Bwlch pronounced Bulch
There you go, I absolutely butchered it 🤦♂️
How is Bwlch Bryn Rhudd pronounced?
@@BeardonaBike Bwlch = Bull-ch (ch like Scottish Loch), Bryn rhymes with Grin. Rhydd is Rh like in Rhino, the Y is an 'ee' sound, and DD is like the 'th' in There. Fantastic effort - I was out on my eMTB and saw lots of you flow past for the very last descent off the Bwlch.
