    Great video. Really loved it. Inspiring from so many angles.
    Beautiful scenery even with clouds. Such quiet roads - perfect.
    Love the sensible 'start little' mindset and plan....... I think we all need to remember that sometimes.
    Love the 'coach' - mind the puddles lol! How lovely to have his support and company.
    Keep going...... I am looking forward to your journey. Thank you for sharing.

    Beautiful scenery. More than enough motivation to get out on a ride. Your positivity is infectious, I’m also now really looking forward to 2025 😉 I like looking at ‘stats’ after rides, but try not to get too bogged down with the numbers. When I was rebuilding my fitness after illness, I was more focused on getting the miles in the legs as opposed to how fast I did them. To be honest, I’m not what you would class as a fast rider anyway, our group rides are more about enjoying the scenery with plenty of coffee stops! All the best, Paul 👍

      I will never be fast. Cycling allows me to enjoy the great outdoors and the scenery. I am so glad that my positivity can be seen and shared through the videos. Thanks for your advice.

    Thanks for this. You've motivated me to get out on my bike and get fit again as soon as I'm able to. Been sitting at home for 2 weeks feeling rubbish mentally and physically after gallbladder surgery and now covid. I'd love to join you on your journey from afar (Perth, Australia). Keep pedaling and all the best to you!

      Wow, thank you for such a kind and positive comment. You have no idea how much that means to me.m. Take the time to heal before you get back out are you are at risk from chronic fatigue. i learned the hard way. I look forward to hearing how your journey goes. You are welcome to follow me on Instagram. If you git the follow button say Hi so I know it’s you and we can cheer each other on.

      @thefatscottishcyclist thanks for the thoughtful reply! Yes I also made the mistake of too much too soon. Post-covid symptoms I think, similar to fatigue and lungs still not working 100%. Fingers crossed I'll be back on the bike next week. Might have to be the ebike though!

    Hya I'm just like to say keep going with the 🚴‍♀️ cycling, you're doing great 👍. I'm a seasoned cyclist of 57 years old. I've always been a pretty poor cyclist!. However!.I like to think I'm in reasonably good condition for my age. You're an inspiration to me because of your confidence in your own abilities ❤.

    Fantastic video, before your outro I was thinking that you could see by the big grin on your face how much you were enjoying yourself and then you said exactly that. Beautiful countryside up where you are. You are approaching your challenge the right way, building it up bit by bit, and by the looks of it having fun too. Hopefully the weather plays ball and allows you to get out and establish your fitness routine. Looking forward to the next episode! Think your husband should get a loud hailer to shout encouragement from the van.😂😂👌🤙🤙🤙🚴‍♀️🚴‍♀️🚴‍♀️

      Thanks for your kind comment. Your support means a lot to me. My husband has already suggested that 😂. the weather has not put paid to the road rides. Looks like I need to dust off the trainer and have some fun on it.

    being a rider isn't difficult. Ask yourself if you are happier on your bike, in the beauty, than what you are at that specific moment in time, simple huh?.... stick at it though and it becomes a life changing addiction that fixes your state of mind.
    P.s the rides you remember most are the ones where you had no thought of distance or where you were going, your were just having an adventure, just ride

      Yip. My mindset is at fault a lot. It’s work in progress I’ll say 😂
