    Films about ultracycling are “common”, ultracycling is about pushing limits. Making a movie yourself about going ultracycling while actually ultracycling, that’s going beyond limits. Great to watch!

      @@Buzzalong.cycling great stuff Sherry, enjoying the video so far! I took part in the RAtN this year as well, I also filmed the race - hope you don't mind me dropped a link here to the first episode - ( ua-cam.com/video/W2QPH2faOxo/v-deo.html ) This was my first ultra distance bike packing race as well, unless you count Paris-Brest-Paris which is vaguely similar!
      The only bit I didn't film was the endless sheep and sheep gates - glad to see you film them - as a reminder I didn't imagine it!

    Congratulations on this major achievement! You are a tough cookie and a strong adventure cyclist. If I may share two pieces of advice : for long distance rides, I'd recommend Panaracer PT Messenger in 700 x 32 or 35 cc, they never let me down (like a puncture in every 10,000 Km); stick to real food, eat cakes, pastries and chocolate as treats and rewards (I can't stomach gels or sugary drinks).
