Escaping the city for brand new roads!

We took a train to just 30-minutes outside of London and found ourselves on some glorious country lanes… even the angry drivers couldn’t spoil this day!

Join me, Sion and Harry on a wholesome day out – cycling a flat, scenic 60km loop from Ingatestone, Essex.

the house what you saying Sup jakeob Maniac hitting the road again and what was meant to be promised to me is a beautiful hot day Jake me and Harry here stri down we w’t allow to bring any layers and it’s freezing cold I think there’s suspect motive by Jake may can you blame me look at those cares what are you saying [Music] i d you feeling good for this ride it’s been it’s been a sec I’m sure you’ll Fly Like An Angel feel a bit doughy bit doughy in the legs doughy in the legs we’ll get those legs in the oven bake them nice and crisp oh it’s nice it’s going to get warm don’t worry if I’d say the fog is [Music] beautiful her and what you need was F you stole my heart you stole my heart you you’re trying to do your anti-land thing again what you when you refuseed to say that a bike ride in England is nice even though it’s obviously nice I uh I give it this one is particularly good for England but if this was Wales this is horrible you just would you yeah anus anus landfill what’s the equivalent of this in Wales P Albert Port Albert is nice SL that sorry for any port talber viewers how many wel it doesn’t look it doesn’t look nice when you go past it on the train from Cardiff to Swansea do think you’ve got more Welsh viewers thanks to me I think I’ve got less viewers full stop thanks to you [Music] [Music] how are those loafy legs feel like that to be honest yeah a bit squidy but you for breakfast today we back on the rice uhuh I had a plan and I went I went off I I deviated from the plan do you want to know where do you want to get I think the plan was the plan was porridge not the plan was I’m never going to guess never guessed the plan plan was hu no yeah plan was hu and I couldn’t bring myself to do it I wasn’t hungry enough you weren’t hungry cuz I had a curry last night and I you weren’t hungry enough to drink the liquid food have you had it before no it looks awful it’s just really filling and like it’s not full filling it just fills you what do you have instead had so good scrambled eggs on toast with honey on it yeah and cheia seeds and sesame seeds as well very nice really good Jake you should open a cafe the sun’s out Sean you happy what sun’s out you happy beautiful day I with you whenever he around I just want to leave all pulled you out your c t on [Music] youring sh day how are the legs shy boy good boy yeah the sun has recharged me told you itd come out just over halfway glorious route really good if we see a pub perhaps we get a pine of Coke and some chips it’s the next right turn you were quite pleased to learn that you are my friend Ned’s favorite on the channel weren’t you a Ned if you’re out there baby I love you I don’t knowbe you know this but [Music] one you ter just let me be the LA belongs to not that it can belong to anyone all I’m saying is sometimes you hear a song it makes you think I know the person I wish I was [Applause] well but I don’t know where they [Music] are but I don’t know the boys have stopped for a Wei so time for a sausage roll think if I could have one sponsor on this channel it’ be Linda McCartney’s and all I’d ask for in payment would be a lifetime supply of their vegan sausage rolls come on Linda do me a solid have you lost your mind right what are you doing just having a look at the lovely field I don’t want to just bomb past everything I’m not sure I describe your cycling as bombing me and like and like Jake right here speed speed king of Plymouth I know what feature we haven’t done this week that you did last time eat it eat it what have you got eat it did you see that it’s horrible are you not keeping up with every one of the videos he how how have you let him on the channel like that what you’ve got to say for yourself I just don’t want to get thrown off you know I would want to be myself I don’t want to copy anyone anyone else other personalities and anything like that so I try and trying to avoid the videos will cost I think you should take a vote at some point to see who’s who’s the most popular reoccuring character you’re hoping it’s you I’m just I’m just interested that [Music] I like that Harry’s matched his socks to his jersey um the street that I live there is room to see the sky on the street that I live there are s passes [Music] by stay in here all love that is found to do you good staying H with me love I know you never [Music] will I think we might actually be approaching the end of the ride already it’s flown by uh Sean’s got a party he has to go to and Harry’s working at 10:30 p.m. so short for one probably made sense we also got slightly derailed by a very angry driver who was past us way too fast way too close so you know we kind of waved our arm in the Abby and like what are you doing mate and then he stopped his car yet he’s in a convertible and he uh started shouting at us it was extremely funny we were trying to explain to him that what he did maybe just felt a bit unsafe for us but other than that the roads have been mostly very quiet it’s been very beautiful the weather’s been great I’m just uh sad that it’s over already we love to find a bigger Loop along some of these [Music] roads away from and the life that you have made there will always be some fell [Music] some there gentlemen your leg survived Harry your gobb to the driver didn’t quite get you beat up Sean you’re you’re as Aggy as me if not
