Beth Bikes
Приєднався 18 лют 2022
I am Beth, an ultra endurance cyclist and Nordic skier here to share about the events and races that I participate in. This started with blog but I wanted to share more videos so I have moved to making videos. Come along for the journey to see the places that I go.
Is this even going to work? | Coffeeneuring Adventure #1 2024
Coffeeneuring is a challenge that centers around the idea of riding your bike to places where you can get coffee. This challenge runs for 6ish weeks from the beginning of Oct to the middle of Nov. This year (2024) the dates of this challenge are Oct 6th through Nov 18th. This video I start the Coffeeneuring Challenge for 2024 with my first ride and coffee-ish drink. I also opened the first white envelope. Watch to see how I complete this white envelope challenge and where I go for my first ride of this challenge.
Remember that if you do the white envelope challenges to use the #CoffeeneuringEnvelopeChallage and tag @bethbike.gravel on Instagram. If you aren’t on Instagram you can email me pictures elizabeththebiker@gmail.com and tell me about the your experience in the comments.

Bonus points to Sugar Shack for letting you bring your bike inside!
They didn't even question it. I love when I can do this!
Were the coffee gloves on purpose? I hope so.
Should have waited to ask this 😊
Definitely not on purpose originally but it did work out nicely as you saw! (They won't be in every video because it was too hot during ride #2)
I've enjoyed the coffeeneuring challenge every year and it's great to see everyone's posts. Love this one! Thanks for sharing, Beth. Enjoy your 2024 coffeeneuring experience.
The new path looks great!
At least we got one good thing from the flooding this spring!
Lol the bloopers!
I know, aren't they great! That's why in the chapters I labeled them "the real video". I know what you're here to watch. 🤣
hey glad to see you back fill us in where have you been time to start a new record for connectivity days on the bike
In this stage of life it's super hard to get on the bike everyday so I get in 3-4 days before a day or two off. I will make an update video soon!
Glad to see you back on the bike
I'm glad to be back on a bike. I have some fitness to regain but with time it will come!!!
Wait, it is not October yet 😉
Not yet. We have a week before it starts. 😁
FYI, the spot where you stopped at 8:15, the path has now been extended another 3 miles into the city of Manor. It ends at a small non de script park called "Ben Fisher" park in Manor. There is a nice convenience store less than a half mile away from the park called Manor Xpress Mart if you need a store stop. Also at 1:23. you passed under Hwy 183 and the little bridge off to your right will take you across the creek. If you then go left (under 183) and then up to street level, there is a wide sidewalk that will take you about 200 yards to Houndstooth coffee shop. There is a local group cycling that goes there after their weekly ride.
@@toddb3846 thanks so much for the details. I will be sure to check these spots out if I'm ever back in Austin.
@@bethbikes Sounds good. I figured other people will be watching your video too and they may find the info about the Manor extension helpful too. :-)
It is a nice trail, isn't it? That tall grass you mentioned is called Giant Cane (Arundo donax), which is an invasive exotic species that gets out of control here in Austin. Along the trail one can sometimes see wildlife: road runner, coyote, deer, and rarely feral pigs. City of Austin Parks & Rec makes us proud with this trail
@@bryanparsons9277 it's a super nice trail. I'm glad we went out of our way to go and ride it! I don't think we rode it at the right time of day to see wildlife but that would have been so cool.
Nice video. I think it's pampas grass you saw (the one with the plumes). Why does the trail go nowhere? Beats me. I think there may be some thinking that it will eventually be extended. Also, I love biking in 50 degree weather. Short sleeve is doable only if you are riding.
@@lenajc1 Here in MN 50s is short sleeves for sure, but temperature is really just relative. I would love to see this trail extended. Even if it does go nowhere, it's a beautiful trail that I would ride almost any day of the week.
I love this trail. The "weeds" you saw are what we call cane poles. I believe it is a type of bamboo.
@@KimReid-ib3dl so cool. Thanks for the insight.
Way to go! Seeing your videos early month inspired me to participate. Finished with a solid 630 miles in 30 days!!!
That's awesome!
Well done!
Congrats!
Thanks!
Days like today are why we don't do 30 days of biking in Northern Wisconsin.
that looks like an incredibly fun time, and those trails look amazing. I've done camp bike vacations up north Michigan but we stayed at the same campground for a few days, not bike-packing. Still lots of fun.
That’s awesome you been pedaling a lot it is inspiring
That's always my hope; to inspire others to get out and ride.
Nice job riding across Minnesota. I rode the one day ride across michigan (ODRAM).
I would love to do that ride some day.
@@bethbikes You should, It's a lot of fun. I have some friends doing it this year, I'm still TBD.
Keep going
Doing the thing you need to even tho you dont want to is the best way to improve. It's all about showing up!
It sure is! Thanks for the encouragement.
Better than snow!
So much better than snow!!
I got 34.4 in today, so if you run short for this month, you can borrow them. Lol
I'm almost 2 full days ahead for my goal of 300 miles for the month. Also if this next week goes as planned I will get in a big ride.
Check out the Superior Vista bike tour. Will have road routes, fat tire route and mountain bike route. I will be volunteering instead of riding.
I will! It sounds like an awesome event!
@@bethbikes Bring friends!
I might do 31days in May, as April is miserable in Northern Wisconsin.
It can be miserable in MN too! May is National bike month so that's a great idea!
Have a good race!
Where your Bike Across the Bay shirt soon!
I don't have a bike across the bay shirt 😢. If I had one I would totally wear it.
@bethbikes Seeing as how you won the race. I was so bummed it was canceled this year, I was training to maybe only finish a little behind you. Lol
@@tpro442 I wish I got a T-shirt for winning but I didn't. If you want to beat my pace you are going to have to be ready for an all out sprint. 😉
@@bethbikes It is on!!!
Eight miles is NOT a good ride 😉
For a windy April day it might be.
You clearly didn't have the hills and winds I had today. P.S. there are no rest days 😜
@@greg_loper I infact had more hills than you did today 😉. And I guess tomorrow will be an active recovery day. #Cantstopwontstop
I don't know why the sky is upside down 🤷♀️🤣
I hear that happens on the range 😜
You realize that I heard shorts and thought something entirely different 😜
I wish I was going to be wearing shorts all April long but it's just not going to happen in MN.
Happy Easter
Happy Easter to you too!
congratulations, I've only done that twice.
1986 Haro Master in lime green and chrome.
the last we heard from you was you were on a really long bike riding streak is that still a thing
Sadly no 😞. My riding streak has to end and I haven't started it back up again.
Love to see you back on here.
No bike loves? 🤣
1. My first bike love was a 1981 Bianchi Road bike (I love that Bianchi celeste paint color) 2. The bike that made me fall in love with cycling was a 1973 Belgium austa. That bike helped me commute to school and learn how to work on bikes. 3. My current bike love is a 2016 hanjo trail5 - my gravel bike 4. My future bike love is Carbon Fiber Otso Voytek. 5. There are so many things to love about cycling but I think two of my favorites are how it can connect people and how you can challenge yourself.
Nice cover Beth. 'Appreciate the intel!
This year will be an interesting race that is for sure if you are doing it.
Still waiting for your return?????
I'm coming back! It will be slow, just posted a new short.
Hey where did you go!!!
If your gong to do The Hecker this weekend, don't forget your shoes!!
Way to push through!
Congrats!
I'm not sure that you are you without your DAMn jersey on one of these crazy rides 😉
It definitely felt a little strange. I will rock the DAMn jersey again.
Promo>SM 😒
I once went skateboarding in a full suit. Stay classy!
It definitely makes people turn their head. 🤣
Ragbrai week was hot for the riders but if you was in Iowa this week for ragbrai temp would be worst . ragbrai temp would be cool for rider compared to this week in Iowa
I have heard about the current heatwave going through. I'm glad I don't have to be riding in that heat right now.
That jersey is awesome.
I love that jersey and wear it often!
Lady Rippers are a female mountain bike group that met in Bayfield earlier this Summer.
That's awesome! I will look into them.
Such a pretty kitty.
I know!
Hey that’s me and my wife at the dip site! I took a picture of your license plate so I could find your channel when I got home and I’m glad I did. Keep up the good work Beth!
That's so awesome! Hope you enjoyed RAGBRAI!
Bad Ass!
Thanks!
