  • Hey Guys, I managed to get in another century ride this week, but wasn't breaking any speed records achieving it. Spent all day out on The D&L Trail, sun up to sun down, caught some rain a few times throughout the day but overall had a great ride. Its not always about getting miles and going fast, sometimes its just about riding and having a good time.
    Thanks for following along, everybody.

    Another good ride. I thought in the first few seconds you were riding in a monsoon, Yeah riding at night is so cool. Thanks for the video and take care, Al

    I fully agree with you about night riding, it makes a regularly cycled track a totally different trail.
    Sometimes I don't have the inclination to repeat some of my regular rides in close succession so I just do them in the dark !
    And very well done on the imperial century 👏🚴‍♂️👍

      Awesome, Thanks. Local familiar rides really get boring, I like to spice them up with rain, and sometimes riding at night.

    I've definitely dialed it back since the weather changed, just a couple short rides/week. Good to see you out there still putting' in the miles.

    Nice work! Your giving me ideas! I really never thought about riding in the dark before I saw this. I don’t live too far from a 30 mile continuous bike trail so I will have to give night riding a try.

      You should! I hope you got out there for a night ride. SO much fun.

    Nice. Just did the gorge ride two weeks ago. Nice to do in the fall so you can see the Lehigh River with all the leaves down.

    Great trail, but Pa. is so dreary in the winter months. Its that rustbelt weather,nasty. Thanx for the vid.

      On the contrary. The starkness is beautiful and riding in the fall/winter is a totally different experience, especially with quiet trails. Big fan of 4 seasons weather here.

    100 miles is a very impressive ride! At 55 y.o. the most I could ride this season was 64 miles.

    • @cycleish
      @cycleish 9 місяців тому +2

      At 66 that’s about as far as I went this season. I recently retired so hopefully I can add some more miles. Riding in the dark is a great idea! Another idea I have is setting a yearly mileage goal such as 10k a year.

    Music would have been pretty fun without that bass part (in the first song). Bassist made it super extra fun. Hope the ride was too.

    Shoot man it takes me all of 12-13 hours to pull off 100miles lol If I eat breakfast before hand Ill usually start getting hungry around the 40-50 mile mark if not somewhere in the 20-30mile mark, water about 1liter every 10miles (I sweat like crazy) Its nice to spend an ENTIRE day on the bike but usually I'll do 40-50mile rides without eating IE: fasting and then treat myself to a nice thick burger and cigar
