This ongoing Video Diary by myself John Neal, sometimes known as John Longcroft-Neal, as the whim takes me.
TODAY’S SUBJECT is a Circular Cycle route from Ridge Lane in Warwickshire England.
GENERAL STUFF
I am retired from two careers of primary school teaching when I was deputy head of a Middle School and Primary School, and as a self employed Chalkboard Artist from 2002 until I reached the grand old age of 65 in 2016. Since I retired it’s like a second childhood but with more expensive toys.
I have written a book ‘Cursive Handwriting for Adults’
published by Ulysses Press and can be purchased from:
AMAZON UK
AMAZON USA
Gear that I use:
DJI Mini 3 Drone.
DJI NEO 2
Iphone 15 Pro for camera, generally front facing so I can see myself in frame. Super quality especially if I keep the lens clean.
Go Pro11
Sony IC recorder
Insta x3 360 camera
Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone
SE mini microphone to do voice over on computer
Video editing with Final Cut Pro X
Ulanzi monopod / tripod MT-71

I am a follower of the Bahá’i Faith and some of my philosophical ideas may show through in comments that I make, but, by and large, I’ll not make direct reference to my beliefs.

I play guitar and write songs and have written about 14 songs for the local BBC radio station. I run a weekly (weakly) evening Acoustic session at a local pub and have been doing so for 14 years now.
Much of the music I use on this channel is taken from epidemicsound.com free to use on Youtube for a reasonable monthly fee, and sometimes I suffer you with my own music.

Nice one John. Hope to be over there in September, Iran problem allowing.😊
A lovely ride in the Sun John and a map 😀👍
Re:- The front wheel, if you haven’t already figured it out. If it is the same as mine.
The very shallow nut on the nearside of the axle has a small locking grub screw in it which you need to loosen quite a lot or take out completely. Think it’s 2 or 2.5 mm.
Then while holding against on the said shallow nut. Undo the other side with an Allan key. The whole shaft then slides out on the offside.
Hope this helps. It’s not clear in the online manual unfortunately 👍
Ps- put a spacer in between your brake pads while the wheel is out. But I’m sure you know that.
Better to have gone through the shade of Bentley Woods than narrow Green Lane with it's high banks. Lovely video.
