Following a few successful years of straight line missioning inspired by Geowizard, we decided to branch out into an all new field of the sport: Straight Line Cycling!
We were aiming for a factor of 100 of a walking Straight Line Mission. That might sound like a lot but it turned out to be extremely challenging as you’ll see!

Not really the same thing, is it lads?
Great to see you guys on adventure again…….at least there should be no wonky forests or hedgerows to bike through….USA here….good luck…….
Can't watch. Video is too rushed unfortunately. Could have been a lot longer
2500 metres seems a bit too big to be considered platinum. I'd say a mile max would be platinum
For some reason this video defaulted to 144p to me, and you know what? I felt like I was back in the good ol' days of wacky YouTube hyjinks.
You never came close to even thinking about diverging from the platinum zone. So should 5000m really be platinum?
Imagine being a fan, watching this video and realising that the houses they called “skanky” is a house you live in right there 🤦🏼♀️😐🫢🤣
Thoroughly enjoyed this boys! Looking forward to part 2. Keep up the good work!
awesome new adventure guys
I don't know about this one. It seems you guys get to make up how many thousands of yards is a perfect run. Seems like that might be based on whatever course you found to be the best.
2500 metres… Well I guess in today's straight line interpretation that's fairly strict 😅
No it’s pronounced Silloth
One way to straight-line it by pedal power is by Human Powered Aircraft. No blackthorn or stroppy farmers to deal with! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYbC9tVXd2k
I do hope this isn't going to be a thing with this series, only 10 minute videos.
9:11 Hahaa. Laughed out loud at that
Absolutely fantastic. Really tightly edited too
Good adventuring, 2500M seems like an achievable platinum deviation, you are usually much tighter on your definitions.
Good stuff! You've reminded me of Nick Crane's book two degrees west, which is the same concept except that he walks south through England following his longitude without deviating more than 0.5 degrees.
What a stupid idea, can't wait for the next episode
Might as well start calling yourselves the new, posh, slightly underfunded Top Gear if you carry on like this.
Calling people's house skanky. Your posh privileges leaked out there. Unsub.
Feels somewhat harsh to ride past peoples houses shouting about how skanky they are, even if they were quite rough.
Is getting off and pushing really cycling?
This is the longest I've seen you guys manage without getting a McDonalds delivered to you lol
