What a great ride – with all the weather possible! This has made me more scared for Paris-Roubaix…but we are doing it for charity so I will face my fear of the cobbles!

Love the Pinarello gear. Can't find it online. Any links?
Great day, with a great course to test the new bike. The cobbles are my favorite Stage in The
Tour, Glad you missed the inclement weather on the cobbles. Nothing like skating on wet
cobbles. Keep up the good work!
Do Cyclists get diabetes 🍩😅
That looked like loads of fun! Great spirit throughout
Nice wee spin out, keep those legs turning. Where's Kyle's new bike? No that's what you call being looked after, bike cleaned after a ride.
What are you guys wearing under the jersey? How many layers?
Awesome day out and a cameo from Russ Downing! 🎉 Top vlogging!
Always carry a chain tool and a quick link when you’re as powerful as Kyle 😉
Sensational, that cobble climb was a cracker, Kyle had the usual wee, a puncture, broken chain and a pastry with chain grease to finish. Great ride, really enjoyed watching it.
Wonderful video very envious of where you ride .
Hey Amy, I have never done road riding before always mtb and you have inspired me to have a go at road riding and I had no idea Wilmslow had a Pinnarello shop so I’ll be going in soon to order a bike, I live in Poynton and the route you guys did today is similar to my off road route I do which is 37 miles and 5000ft 😮, it’s a good 3 hour ride but it’s a lot of fun, I’m glad you guys are enjoying your cycling and I’m looking forward to watching more of you both, Just a thought are you doing the Christie’s charity run from Manchester to Blackpool as it would make an excellent video :-).
What an amazing bunch of peeps you were with, that's what I love about cycling Amy the comradery, keep smiling Amy you Kyle are fab ❤
You nailed those cobles well done great ride
Bloomin nora! Love it
That looked like one heck of a ride. Great job on making those climbs and making me laugh out loud!!😂😂😂
All in one video, Awesome!!!!
See you in Roubaix Guys!………..nothing prepares you for the first section > Trouee D'Arenburg, 35km of pan flat nice road then 2.5Km of Hell You will love it once you have finished! i tell myself never again but seem to have been back 8 times! Still get on it every year at the Hotel de France in the main square (best place to eat in Roubaix) the hangover helps numb the pain 🤣😂🤣😂
Card on your phone or Google pay.
That cobbled climb is going to give me anxiety for weeks. I'd be off my bike and walking after about 5 meters
Is that Vince stuffing his face @13.53? used to know him at Rapha. Top chap. tell Kyle its Astronomer/Astronomy re the stars not Astrology which is fortune telling (and not a real science)
If you like cobbles check out the Ronde Val Calderdale in West Yorkshire set to minic the Flanders
Make sure you always carry a chain breaker and quick link, especially on APN! Awesome climbing and views.
You are crushing those climbs. Well done!
Kyles gooooodbyyeeee always cracks me up 😂 Its a vibe in itself!
Cycling with Russ 👏👏 true British cycling legend. 👍
Russ Downing a great rider. Enjoyed the video as usual. All those posh bikes were so easy on the eye as well 🔥
That old chestnut….‘ We have leave our money at home" the old ones are the best…..
