😢 your vid is too late I slammed my stem already
I wish I could turn my bike same as yours
Hey Chris, may I know what type of spacers and stem does your bike have? Thank you
Cervelo r5 stem
Hope you enjoy, I wish there was a map to say type of road surface, I want to cycle around the full coast of UK but on current bike 28mm is max tyre size by frame manufacturer
Wow I thought goodwood was more North
Yeah I would say probably a gravel bike would be good for that just incase.
Your mustache always gave me the impression that you are bald. I am so surprised how much hair you've got on your head, bro.😅
😂
Looking good for the start line tomorrow Chris & Jack. Eat, sleep and have a cracking start tomorrow 🏴
Thank you!
How could you not start this video with a bit of Shed Seven music. Great song.
Cool journey mate. Enjoy the miles
Who is Shed Seven?!
@@ChrisHallRides come on surely you heard Chasing Rainbows back in the 90’s? Great song
just be more interesting than the last guy i watched riding quickly on a yellow cervelo
Have a great time Chris,,, The CERVÉLO looks amazing, Really nice in gold and perfect setup.
It looks amazing right?!
That's a great bike setup. Good luck with the ride. Take care, Al
Thank you!
@chrishallrides what brand are your bottle cage holders? It's nice you can attach the pump and dynaplug kits to it.
Theyre not part of the bottle cages. The Dynsplug comes with a special mount and so did the pump which you put behind the bottle cages. The cages are from Elite though
Good luck with the ride. I hope you enjoy Glasgow.
Interesting fact, this may be the first combined world cycling championships but it is not the first time the track world championships have been held in Glasgow. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1897_ICA_Track_Cycling_World_Championships
That was at Celtic Park just across the road from the Chris Hoy velodrome.
Oh awesome thanks for the info!
What do you think of the saddle? I have found very favorable reviews from other sources, curious to hear your opinion
We did some pressure mapping and it suits me well. I had no issues ok the ride which is fantastic. To be fair the saddle I used before, the pro stealth worked well for me as well but this one’s marginally better I think. But all in all I’ve been really impressed with it
Wow, this looks an awesome challenge, I couldn't work out the distance as I rode from Edinburgh back to Hertfordshire, then I saw your course, good luck with day 2, that is some serious time in the saddle. I hope you have the wind behind you. Looks like I know what I'll be watching for the next week or so....good luck.
Thanks so much for watching and for commenting
Coolest endurance bike ive seen chris! Safe journey bro!
Heck yeah!! :)
Good luck Chris say hi to jack for me
Will do mate!
Good looking bike mate ! Good luck with the challenge 👍🚲
Thanks 👍
Enjoy it Chris. Have a great adventure. 👍🇮🇪
Thank you!
Super interested to know your take about Soloist vs Caledonia 5 after this trip :)
I'll do a video about that
Great!! Good luck with the rest of the trip!! :)
Extra setup and Good Luck!!!
Thanks!
Best of luck! Ride safe Chris!
Thank you!
As commented before, I have similar bike with same R5 bar/stem. I'm running 32c Vittoria Corsas and they are great on long ride - did first Century on the bike (in miles) and it was zero problem - just as comfy as my Roubaix endurance bike. Have fun.
PS - people say Seattle weather is similar to the UK, but we do get a pretty sunny summer. Not sure how you deal with a July day that requires a puffy coat and is totally cloudy. Must be used to it.
I hate that I’m in a puffer jacket in July. It’s not normal for this time of year to be this cold and wet
I’m planning on purchasing this bike this off-season. I’m glad to hear you say it’s a comfortable bike.
@@tacosnachosburritos Nice! Which version? Which color? If I had to do it again, I’d do the Ultegra one with the 40/44 reserve wheels. And I love the R5 bar/stem as long as you know your fit well
@@jwfriar I wasn't sure. I was thinking of the Force eTap, why do you think the Ultegra? I like the white one but it doesn't seem to be available, so I think the black. Which color do you have?
@@tacosnachosburritos I have golddust - which looks great, but personal choice. I got the rival one, where I am mixing in some force and red. I think between my SRAM bike and Ultegra bike, the pure shifting, lower weight and brakes favor Shimano and the SRAM is better with compatibility and innovation. I like the batteries on the derailleurs and the shifting style on the SRAM too.
have fun & good luck
Thank you!
What bottle cage are you using?
Some cheap ones from Elite
@@ChrisHallRides ok ok thx! Looking forward hearing from you how you liked the bike after your tip!
No power meter?
Yep it has an ultegra power meter on it
Hi Chris
Hi
I’d love to see a video comparing the Soloist to the Caledonia/5 :-)
Great idea!
Morning Chris,
Best of British 🇬🇧 for this bike ride! Really cool 😎 looking bike and an excellent spec I have to say 👏. Just 1 qu: your seat pack: make model and content(s)? Is it a tailfin?
Do you mean the little tool roll? It’s an old Attacus one. I’ll do in a vlog what’s in it
@@ChrisHallRides Yeah Chris..... the tool roll. I have tried a silica one, but returned it as I felt it didn't pack well for what I wanted to put inside it.....And it didn't appear to be water tight? A wee snippet on video on the attacus roll is a good suggestion Chris..... thanks! 👌 👍
Don't want the feeling of competition if someone rides with you for a stretch of the route?
I'm riding at my own pace, more than happy for people to join. There's no competition here
Let cycling battle commence 🚴
