I have a new (secondhand bike) a Specialized Crosstrail Carbon Elite. I have the bike to get out doing more miles and get back some cycling fitness. I have always cycled and have done Audax and Long distance tours in the past. At 64 will be tough getting fit again but something I enjoy and want to do. Hopefully some longer trips and few overnight trips as well in the future. If you enjoy then p...

My CB500X came with Oxford heated grips, first time I've had them in 59 years of riding, used them a lot lately together with cheap hand guards, I'm a convert, Happy Christmas Pete!👍
Cheers Dave all the best and happy Christmas
Also fancy a cb500x
Do you still go across the railway where you have to contact the signal box Pete?
Great video thank you, is it a self employed role? Cheers
@monkeygirl8744 Hi no its employed role thanks for teh watch
Lovely 😊
Great memories
@@stephengunrunnerhanson3550 cheers
Good man 👍
Nice lanes and dry and calm for a change lol. I was riding down the m1 on my sidecar during storm Bert. bloody hell like wresting Mike Tyson and a wild Gorilla.
Cool what outfit where you on
@ a 650 Bandit with a chair that resembles a Steib but isn’t.
Watched a few videos now as ive taken a second job doing tesco deliveries a couple evenings and a full day on Sunday. it has given me a good idea on what the job entails. Cheers I'll be delivering down in south west Wales so the roads are similar.
@JohnWilson-qf5tk all the best i am sure you will enjoy it. If you need any help give us a shout
I'm a delivery driver in Cornwall and I use Post tag and Cornwall interactive. Can't fault either one and have never let me down for the last 5 years. Absolutely love delivering down here, Port Isaac, Bude, Camelford ect all over. Keep up the good work lad 👍
@@benfoster1400 awesome mate Cornwall mapping is a saviour
@peter236uk1 100% agree with you mate, when it goes down though flippin hell it's a nightmare
Love the narrow lanes, very Robert Frost
@piearm1271 cheers lol can be fun
Nosy parker
Are the hand held devices easy to use ?
@jamesdevlin3314 yes very straightforward to be honest
@@peter236uk1cheers mate, got interview in the morning 😳 16 yrs since I last had one , wish me luck Pete 🙏🏻
Back in the 1600's my family had 2 farms in that area before the China Clay mining and tips. If you want company on your Dartmoor camp let me know, I'll happily come along.
@rialobran That would be fantastic Si
Your be fit after that journey tfs sylvi 😊
@@SylviaCostello-lu1bu or broken lol
Nightmare! We had the big lab work van out at polruan that day.
@approachableactive cheers it was not good
Great stuff, the weather is a lot better
I’ve had no squash hardly any beans. Too many beetroot to eat and half a ton of slugs.
@piearm1271 it strange some stuff done really well others not. My tomatoes were not very good this year either
Hello what type of polytunnel do you have please
@StellasVegetablegardens it was a first tunnels had it around 6 years now and been very good to be honest has a couple of holes due to sea gulls lol
Your garden is looking much nicer than mine Pete, I had a very bad year, too many snails and slugs. I'm looking forward to the Spring and the warmer weather, but first we have to get through the Winter:) Best of luck with the CT scan.
@WiltshireMan cheers buddy and will get up for a visit prob in new yeat
If only the slugs and snails were edible we’d be millionaires this year
@piearm1271 very true
Morning Peter, It's not often that someone makes a video giving a tip that is actually informative and useful. Nice one. x
@barbaraaldam204 Thanks i am no expert Gardener far from it but is works for me
Really enjoying your travels down Cornwall mate. Hope to see you again next year.
Hope So John i want to go to Squires and Explore more of North Yorks plus meet up with you guys
No jabs don't do it...
love your videos, often in Cornwall my favourite place x
@tonimabbatt3117 Thank you so much means alot
Enjoying your Vlogs Pete, Cornwall looks tight in some places to get around like North Wales 👍🏴🏴🏴
@thewelshbeavis1355 Thanks so much, love Wales its Wet as well like Wales
Fabulous :)
He gets about ❤
Blimey that was tight, you made it look too easy. Thanks for the tour.
@johnpawson7400 cheers John yes its very tight in the van !! Hope your well mate
Tighter than a nuns
Shave the beard you could have a cockatoo
@@joffey1212 haha
Hedgehogs?
@@amyk9813 dont see many hedgehogs to be honest
I’ll give it a go. I notice a lot of slut yesterday when I was putting in the garlic. A bit worried they will munch all the garlic seed.
@mareeploetz5194 worth a try seems to work for me and been trying for years with slug problems also its good for soil egg shells
You’re Mike from breaking bad?
@Whippetiggy your not the first to say this lol ta i think !!
Awesome tip mate. I have chickens, going to try this. Cheers
@dunkdriver1972 worth a go
@peter236uk1 I'm thinking it might raise the soil pH too for brassica as its calcium based.
Pete i look at it this way. In the 60s 70s the Motorcycle was a cheap means of transport even apprentices with the newly introduced idea of HP get now pay latter could afford to own one. It also became sexy with Rockers etc and a girl magnet when not so many young men had cars. Roll through 80s 90s it becomes more of a hobby as young lads can afford a car and maybe a bike. Into the 2000:some old guys have good pensions and memories of their past youth so sales are good. The present situation is a mixture of young peoples expectations and needs they need a car for all weathers for work generally men and particularly girls like their comfort, generationally wise they are not so adventurous and risk taking .The Manufacturers have made Motorbikes technically Luxurious and safer so the prices have gone up, they havent recognised that to pay rent and food Motorbikes are a expensive Luxury people cant afford and due to the aforesaid aspire to much less. The Old guys keep the Market going. A greater proportion of those want sensible easy to use maintain and finance bikes. Im not giving Royal Enfield or Chinese Manufacturers credit for realising the market i think they just got lucky that their low production costs coincided with the European Economic situation lack of finances and in REs case a ready market for nostalgia. I have just started again and your a youngster to me😅 so im one of them . Take care. Ps and off course theres more cars now and bikes are less common so car drivers are not so expecting of your presence which is not good. Lucky for me we get tons of Racing cyclists here so most drivers expect to see them on Country roads so it at least helps their observation skills?.
@chrisbamborough222 i fully agree with you on this one. I think the scooter market is still quite strong. I also think e bikes have had some effect with young people buying a e bike for work and bit of weekend fun. No tax or Inshurance etc poss thanks for the comment
Nice ride out Pete 👍, atb.
Great vid definitely colder now though.cheers
@christopherevans-s3x yes thanks might even look at one of those heated vests if i keep riding through winter thanks for comment
Some nice logs there for the wood burner
I'm guessing you have excellent night vision. Unfortunately, driving at night not easy for me after eye surgery 12 years ago so such jobs not possible.
@EarthWatcher736 it is akward to be honest at times and modern headlights dont help so bright
@@peter236uk1 Even day-time delivery work off the table as eyes are constantly dry as well. Alot of lorry jobs around here in North East Lincs.
Great Vlog Pete I go to some really nice Places on the Llyn Peninsula and Snowdonia in North Wales for the tesco i work for and the first thing I think of is how can I turn around here lol !!! 🤣🤣🤣👍
@thewelshbeavis1355 i love Snowdonia and yes always thinking about an escape route lol
Im working for morrisons, and the vans up in the north are massive things. We often get 33 drops and 130 totes. There money grabbers since this take over. So many people leaving
@garymcgregor7048 thats not good mate
Mate don't you know there's rules about smutty images on here 😅 very nice!
Hi Pete I thought you gave the vans up ? Or did I miss something. PS I enjoy the video ect. Malc (Tamworth)
@MalcSayer i took some time off had neck issue was not sure if it would get better or not. All good now so went back lol cheers
Great Video Pete. Been driving for Tescos for 2 years now. Struggled first but now I love it. Keep up the good work
@oliverfry8980 cheers buddy all the best
If it's like my store, as long as it has at least 3 wheels, it's good to go. Everything else is a bonus.
I need to get some knobblies fitted to my bike Pete, I think I would be slip sliding all over the place on a track like that. Something I did do today was buy a pressure washer:)
@WiltshireMan yep i have one only issue mate they can take paint off but i come back wash it off then spray it with silicone spray seems to keep it looking ok
Great day out Pete!👍
Great Vlog Pete I work for Tesco in North Wales as a driver, Cornwall looks amazing 👍
@thewelshbeavis1355 cheers buddy thanks all the best
Tuesday night and was very warm today 😊
Fuuuuck bursting your ass to live and get buy having to do extras fuck that bro make your own money
