January 2023
I’ve decided this year will be a cycling year and that it’s time to return to Audax long-distance cycling 🚴
I also announce a challenge I’m taking on to mark a roundy birthday 🎂
Come along on my first training ride and get all the details 🙂

Best of luck with your 2023 challenge Niall! I hadn't heard of Audax before – it sounds pretty hardcore, great there are such challenges for those that are interested. I have a 50th birthday coming up a month after you but I doubt I'll be challenging myself too much in 2023!! 😉 Best of luck with your build up – the road begins!!
Niall I will follow you gladly from my sofa and watch your progress with interest. It looks a daunting challenge but I'm sure your well able for it .Stay safe and injury free in 2023.
What a day.
Good luck with the training. . That's an awesome schedule of events ahead ..
It's not a crisis , endurance is much more suited to the older body and brain . Knowing you have to put in the work to build the proper type of muscle fibres . There's no fast way to do that but you will do it .
#determination
I just got my bloods done and an ecg on Friday .
I've a tip for you , swimming underwater , anaerobic fitness . But you prob know this already .
Good work
I am Indian

Hi Niall. Best of luck with your challenge for the year. Your very energetic 🥵hope you have a good soft saddle on that bike, nice to have a goal/challenge, something to aim for. Best of luck with it. 👍
More power to you! During COVID I quit my long term training in fencing and I have noticed a marked decrease in condition since. Also, I feel that my mental state is not as strong as when I was training 3 times a week. So, your video is inspiring me to get off my arse and get back to it. ☺️
Hardcore mate, that is some challenge, very impressive! Looking forward to seeing the updates on your journey this year, looks like you are off to a great start! All the best!
Training for everest at mo,been doing ten miles a day no carbs,loved this i hope do a video were i do 100 miles in a week in couple weeks debs xx
Just found your channel 👍will follow with interest best of luck
Hi Niall…quite the challenge ..jayus I was hoping just to do 1 audax well wicklow 200 ..so best of luck with it I ll keep an eye on your progress
Sounds like a good plan into which you've put a lot of thought. The longer distance targets are very daunting in isolation but you're taking a solid stepwise approach. I returned to the bike last year after an eight year lay-off and it's important to build in the way you're describing and feel comfortable with different expectations.
Subscribed and I'll be following with interest.
You’ll knock it out of the park mate. I turned 50 last year and just finished riding 1350km solo around Taiwan…my endurance engine at this age is far better than when I was younger.
