As me mum would say… Lovely Day! Following you on goggle maps- I hope you enjoyed your ride! I'll be off to go when my daughters home from school. Cheers
A grand day out on the bike 🚴 Blighty has some fine Countryside to ride in…..and that driver in the silver car was a wanker…no need for it…but what else would we expect from steel bull drivers, who haven't evolved.
Epic ride , stunning countryside, enjoy your enthusiasm! Nice mix of road , gravel and dirt , brilliant 😎
great tour with beautiful impressions. 👌
A nice long one today 😍😍😍
Hi what bike are you riding
They were talking about fitness and e-bikes on Cade Media Podcast this week. Absolutely you’ll get fitter: 1. You’re actually riding, 2. You’re powering a heavier bike above 16 mph, 3. you’ll probably be inclined to ride further.
Here is Australia we have swooping magpies in spring (September). They apparently have particular people they go for.
Lovely scenery as usual 😊
Any questions or perhaps exciting plans for the weekend? As always, I love to hear from you guys so please comment below! 😊❤
Hi do you mind sharing the make and model of drone? Looking for something like that myself, thanks.
no pace at all even with an electric bike.. get a mtb, your wheels crunch..
The Wye Valley and the Marches is a beautiful area
Lovely looking route 🚲 and very well filmed and presented 🙂👍
That was a beautiful butterfly!

@cyclingcamerasandcoffee I live over in Herefordshire, out near Kington on the Welsh border. The one thing I miss around here is fire trails/hardish gravel riding, basically away from traffic. Any suggestions for locations I should check out?
