    Looks like a really good club, well organised and sensible Saturday ride. Here, near Poole in Dorset, we are lucky enough to have a few similar clubs. Really enjoy your content, enjoy your new bike.

    Feel your pain with the camera and meeting new people, i think its just suck it up and crack on with it though 👍🏻🚴🏼‍♂️💪🏻

      @@thewattlife I may consider getting it for my rim brake setup. Have you had any issues with the chain rubbing when in Big Big?

    • @thewattlife
      @thewattlife  Місяць тому +1

      Nope- shifting was perfect. From what I understand people need to know how to index gears. I had no rubbing and managed to index it front and rear. The shifting was pretty great

    I don't know why meeting new people is so hard for you but I commend you for putting yourself out there

      Its getting easier each time i do it, but theres a lot of imposter syndrome with cycling and rather ironically even more so with having a cycling youtube lol

    If I'm being thick here, I'm sorry, as a UA-cam premium subscription user, I don't get adverts on any video. And in a previous video you said you don't do adverts or such and I respect that, but if you complain in this video that you can't afford to run 2 bike builds, I'm not sure if I should admire your plan or put up with you telling me how good square space is, so you can make better content, your call, I'll still like and subscribe.
    Again not try to be rude just a genuine question
    Thanks

      @thewattlife  Місяць тому +2

      Hahaha I see your point!!
      Just out of curiosity have you tried KetoneIQ…?!?!
      No, in all seriousness, I don’t have ads because I just wanted to start making content for ppl. At the moment, if the choice was buying another group set for 1,800 or going on a trip to Mallorca, I’d probably do the latter given that I have one perfectly good working bike.
      I love cycling, I don’t need a bunch of bikes so spending money on a bike I wouldn’t really ride… maybe that doesn’t add up for me.

    Hi Max. Another great video. Quick question - how's the fit on Sirrocco? Is a medium a medium, or is it undersized? Cheers

      I would say that it is pretty normal. Maybe the torso (at least with the srx jersey) is slightly on the long side

    Cool vid dude.. well done for putting yourself out there and going along I know it can be daunting meeting a new group etc wow huge group at the cafe 😊 may be worth mentioning if they have different avg speed groups.. 😊 Pete 🚴🏻👍

      Think I might mention that when we’re at the cafe- different speed groups, different distances. All meet at the same cafe at the end 👌🏻
