    That was a nice video Amy. Great to meet Dadio and see him breaking out the stove is legendary. We worry so much about weight saving and marginal gains on bikes, but that’s proper adventure biking. Salmon sarnie dipped in mushroom soup… Gordon Ramsay would be proud 😅
    Flash cafe is excellent. I saw it was up for sale or lease, so not sure if current owner is looking to move on. Hope it stays for the long run.
    Nice work on you and Karl qualifying 👍🏻
    Ps… I recommend the Elite 950ml bottles. Two of them are good for long distance rides.

I bet sat there in the sunshine with that wonderful view and his daughter with him, that soup tasted amazing! Who needs gels and energy bars! Comedy duo in the making!

    That was great! Never stop riding. Safety first. The perfect form of exercise...low impact on the knees and super for the heart. Bless. Be careful riding in England. I rode a car for 3 weeks around Bristol and Somerset and that was a challenge. A lot of walls along the roads in the UK but where you're riding looks safe. Just rode my bike 20 US miles today. I only ride one 100 miles once a year. It's a flat ride called the Seagull Century in Maryland. I try to ride every other day. My bike is a BMC Roadmachine 01 Three (2022 model) with Shimano DI2 Ultegra. It keeps me wanting to ride. All the best from the US. You have a good dad. Very cute UA-cam.
