    Amy, I enjoy your high quality fun videos, your enthusiasm is contagious. Riding a Pinarello must be nice. At age 69 I am still doing 100 milers but on an entry level mountain bike and about 90 minutes slower than you. I know that you are a highly skilled rider, please be careful in intersections and especially when traveling over metal surfaces when your tires (tyres) are wet. My wife and I live in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania and love your videos even though we don’t always understand what you are saying. Please be safe!

      Hey! I am in Pittsburgh too (originally from Reading, UK) and you are brave to be riding around the city....Pittsburgh is bloody dangerous!

    • @leomccarthy2999
      @leomccarthy2999 4 місяці тому +1

      Ben, yes it is very dangerous. In 2014 I was struck by a car breaking my left arm in half requiring surgery. I also had a concussion and other injuries. Last year my neighbor was riding with me and his hat blew off while going down a hill at 30 MPH. He turned to look for it and became unstable crashing into the pavement. He always refused to wear a helmet. He was 79 years old and received multiple injuries. He was treated at Allegheny General Hospital and was put on a ventilator. He died after 22 days. So, I primarily ride on trails like the Three Rivers Heritage Trail or the Great Allegheny Passage, the Panhandle Trail, Montour Trail and rail trails in neighboring states. I ride about 3000 miles a season, as of yesterday at I am at 627. I escort groups of U.S. military veterans every month from April to October every year as well always on safe trails.
      Thanks so much for the email.

    Before I had my e bike I always took on the headwinds on the way out to have the wind at my back on the way home, now I do it the opposite way most of the time😂I had pretty much the same conditions for my ride today so I made the most of it with 106.7 miles and 7396ft of climbing! My ride was very similar to yours😉Days like this are so good for lifting your spirits👍I think your spirits were stratospheric on that one, amazing ride by you both😊

    Hi Amy, great video as usual. I really admire your gutsy enthusiasm. However, I tense slightly every time you ride over a cattle grid at speed. Last year I was riding through the Forest of Bowland and I rattled across a cattle grid at a frightening rate of knots. My rear wheel punctured and shredded. It was the end of my ride and I had to walk for miles, across the windswept moors to reach a landline because there was no mobile phone signal. Anyway, I made it, and got a cab, but the entire experience was horrible. Now, when I ride over a cattle grid, I am a tad more careful. Be safe you're not in a race!

    Glad to have 165mm cranks on my bike. Spinning is a little easier, it's minimized hip impingement at top of the pedal stroke, and it's easier to keep a lower frontal position.

    Great decision to go down to 165s. It'll take a few hundred milonies to get used to them, and you'll probably find your cadence will increase slightly. Your knees will love you for this change tho.

    Strange how at the end of the video when Kyle wanted to talk about his watts you shut him down by saying that you didn’t want to turn into a rider that gets obsessed with watts even though you’d said earlier on in the video that you’d averaged 240 watts for the first four hours of the ride.🤨

    I really love the videos, but all honestly taking up cycling seems to me like a really expensive sport judging by the some of the been ridden and some of the trendy cycling gear which most cyclists would have to pay for out of their pocket!

  • @ajollygoodchap
    @ajollygoodchap 4 місяці тому +1

    Did you say you are running 165mm cranks, and that that is the correct size for the bike???? NOT SO SURE! There seems to be a fad going on at the moment about crank length, and no doubt the bods at Pinnerello have filled you up with all the stats and black magic. I think you are riding too small a crank for your size of bike and your leg length. This probably why you are finding it harder to keep up with Kyle. You will probably have noticed that the smaller crank tends to throw your weight forward and forces you lower over your bars. You'll also have noticed that you feel there just isn't enough pedal platform to stand on and stabilise you, when you are out of the saddle. Yes it will help you spin, and you will find that you are on your pedals a lot quicker with mire response when you come out of slow junctions, BUT, efficiently power output is about more than spinning. YOU NEED TO BE ON 170MM..
