Brilliant Mark. Looking forward to part 2
Thanks Jim 👊
I’d say you have a great feeling of freedom pal. Absolutely delighted for you
I am indeed pal 😅 booking train tickets now , might end up in your garden tent and all 😅🤣
Ah jaysus. I’m moving😂😂
🤣😂🤣
You won't know yourself with the bike. The freedom of it. Looking forward to part 2! Heading camping to Carlow myself in the next couple of weeks. I hope the weather is as good as in your video!
Yeah it’s opened up lots of places to see 🙌👍🍀
Good stuff mark. Dunno if it’s just the camera, but it sounds like one of your brake pads are rubbing? Either brakes or wheel needs small adjustment. Might wanna get the lads to fix it before taking it west.
FYI - Wicklow hills are mental. They take a lump out of most batteries.
Best thing to improve range is actually to reduce friction, i.e. make the tyres a bit harder….
Oh and regardless of that, invest in a good gel saddle cover. I’d say your arse is feeling a bit tender after all them miles 😂😂😂
Cheers Lar 👊 I’ll have a look at them , yeah them hills are hard on Betsy , and the potholes, ouch 😅 it came with a comfortable gel saddle which is great. I can’t wait to get back out on her 🚵♀️
I have to get one of them🚴🏼🚴🏼👊👊
Ah Ger they are great fun 🤩 🥳🥳
With the shuffle beat of the bodhrán giving way to the rattle and hum of the e-rothar, in a near-perfectly executed intro of flashing green and azure-blue skies, Part 1 of your maiden voyage into the world of power-assist bikepacking appeared to have been a relatively smooth one; albeit tinged with a bit of angst by a fluctuating power readout.
I reckon, as with any new form of transportation, auto or assist, a period of run-in is required for achieving that perfectly smug, super-confident, windblown-hair (?), devil-may-care, metronome-cadence of man-and-machine osmosis. In short, ride ride ride to the drum-beat and guitar-twangs of all those up-and-coming wild camping sessions, waiting to be enjoyed, down that open road, to be that inexhaustible battery dude!...
..Just try and avoid barbecuing the twig stove with the twigs, when you do! 😜
Well articulated as always my friend, I think you should be writing a news paper column .
That happens the twig stove after an hour or two of intense heat 🔥
I hope you are training for the biggest greenway this summer pal 🚴
Been in training for the past 60-odd years, pal 😉
Good because I’m not giving you a go of my e-bike 🤣😂
@@WildCampingIreland 🤣 Just need a bowl of muesli to top up my battery, bud 🥣⚡️
Range anxiety ... Need your solar panels to charge the battery on a day like that! - Nice petrol motor on the bike you'd be grand!
Range anxiety 😅 I like that 🤣 yeah solar panels could be useful alright 👍
Great job Mark.
Thanks pal 👍👊💪🍀
Looks great Mark will open up loads of camp spots for u 😊
Cheers dude 👊 yeah I will be on a lot of trains to the west 🤞🍻🥳
