      It's the long straight bit in your face that just seems to be almost mission impossible. It's all about character building Michael.

    Great video again Daz!! Think I would have a try at it. Not sure if my old knees would like it though 🤣😂 I'm not much of a stand up and pedal kinda person. Rather just grit my teeth and sit down and get on with it 😁

      Either way it's it good one to try out Diana , make sure you have plenty of jelly babies for a treat at the top though.

    Great film as always. Some steep ascent there. Thanks for the film Daz, hope you rewarded yourself with a pint in that pub afterwards.

    just where you turned off at 0:58 to the right is a train station, the Doghouse Lane climb there is arguably harder than Mytholm...surface isnt as good either which makes it even more challenging...and if its wet, forget it, youre back wheel will spin out like mine has before.
    Its such a hotspot for hard climbing round there, Shore Road and Thursden Valley/Ridehalgh are two favs.

    That looked spectacular Daz, I do not expect to achieve this one, way to steep for me. Great commentary as always, keep safe mate, Alan.

    • @MrDazP1adv3ntures
      @MrDazP1adv3ntures  4 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching Alan, this is a very steep hill to take on, there are so many around this part of the Pennines that in a day's riding you easily hit 10,000ft of climbing in a relatively short distance.

    Great video, looks a top ride. That was a good tip about the wheel bearings and brake rub because I've had that issue on the last two bikes. Currently on Vision Team 35 wheels but looking to upgrade to Parcours Passistas, not sure if these will present a similar issue. Cheers

    • @MrDazP1adv3ntures
      @MrDazP1adv3ntures  4 роки тому +1

      Thanks for the info Mark. I would always look for wheels that have angular contact bearings or cup n' cone because they can take the loads as the wheel is forced between the axis. Radial and axial .I use Hope Pro 4's on one bike and the bearings don't last more than 6 weeks before they start to develop play.

    • @MrDazP1adv3ntures
      @MrDazP1adv3ntures  4 роки тому +1

      Yes me too, I understand it's all about the strongest team and all that but to win it and only come second last year because of a crash for Thomas is a big blow. I can't understand why Yates has signed for them either, obviously ££ money is a big part of it but Ineos will have another marked man in their squad to keep happy when you've got Bernal to contend with. It will be interesting at Christmas when Simon and Adam are back at mum and dad's in Bury not being able to share team tactics.
