Sometimes it's pleasurable to see other people suffer!😁 All credit to you both for sticking with it. To get to see those lovely views there is a price to pay. I'm sure when you look back on the trip you'll forget the rough tracks and just remember the nice bits. Thanks for the video.

Looking forward to when that time comes 🤣

I absolutely LOVE that part of the world, having stayed in Roker several times. The bike paths must be fairly new? also you could also call you channel ‚Ride with JOY# - so great to watch the two of you! ❤

Welcome to Rudston. I wanted to visit and see the Lith when I visited two years ago, but missed the chance.

Roy and Wendy… watched with great interest. Well done to you both. Clearly a demanding day’s journey. Nevertheless, it’s generally the tough days that one remembers best when the ride is completed. The easy sunny days are delightful of course, and we all hope for those days when planning an adventure. I’ll look forward to the final days and the route amendments if they are still to come.

Hi Roy and Wendy. I agree with you about that path being truly awful. The leaflet we had described the Cinder Path as being suitable for families - it certainly was not! We stayed at Robin Hood bay last Autumn and struggled to Scarborough and back, it took much longer than we expected, mainly due to the very poor surface and the hills. Also there wasn’t much to see, as the view was hidden by the trees for much of the way. The next day we went in the other direction to Whitby, that was a really nice ride, although not so many miles. You did very well , especially as you don’t do big hills usually😂 Just joking. Keep up the great videos!

Some tough sections in this episode , I was on that ferry to South Shields last week finishing off the Hadrians way. I would certainly say this section was undulating 😂 … very enjoyable for us , look forward to the next one 🚲👍

Well done Roy and Wendy, that looked hard with all that gravel and steady climbs 🤣🤣. Climbing is all relative but I'm with you, I like the smooth level stuff. Great video series, thanks.

Another great video, thank you. Well done some leg sapping climbs there. Who knew Wendy was a lamb whisperer 🐑😃👍

Hi 👏

The premier inn should guarantee a good night sleep or your money back so if you both didn’t sleep well you should get a refund. I once got a free breakfast as someone had left their toenail cuttings by the chair in my room. Love Whitby! 50 miles across fields and walking up hills must make the day longer.

cracking trip. Stunning views. Thank you for sharing.

Finding a new Ride With Roy video certainly improved my mood this morning. That first part where you were riding to meet Paul really showed how a city/town can do right by its cyclists with their lovely separated bike paths. I did get a chuckle because every time you or Wendy mentioned 'cycle path', KZread's captioning interpreted it as 'psychopath'. 😅 That legend about the monkey was interesting, to be sure. Wendy had a good arm tossing that penny into the monkey's box. 👍 Those little lambs were sooo cute and LOUD. They were ready to follow Wendy, running after her along the fence line. I had been wondering what you did with your bikes at night. Even tho that Premier Inn allowed the bikes inside, the lack of a working lift assured they wouldn't be getting a five star review! That 5th day into Scarborough seemed extra tough. The music thru the 'Enchanted Forest' was appropriate. Riding thru farmers' fields, lifting loaded bikes over fences, going along rough, muddy trails would surely have done me in. You are both to be commended for your perseverance. And just think -- when you get back home and are riding without the loaded packs, it's going to feel so freeing. 😊

Bloody hell Roy you are risking it at the TravelLodge in Scarborough, your bike would be cleaner than the room.! :-) Mind the Grand across the road is the last hotel you'd want to stop at.... Grand no longer!. Used to supply to Premier Inn they don't like costs or indeed paying suppliers!

Hi Roy, Wendy - really enjoying watching your travels. Have to say the audio between Wendy and yourself is superb. Is that some intercom system? The reason I ask is that when I go for a cycle I often struggle to hear other cyclists if they are a bit further away or if its a windy day... Thanks and take care!

Marvellous fossils on the Whitby coast, especially at Robin Hoods Bay. Some of those sections across fields looked pretty frustrating. How did your new Wahoo Roam go?

@RideWithRoy

Ай бұрын

I did consider routing via the bay but this particular fossil felt it a hill too far 😀 The Wahoo worked particularly well although the operator failed a couple of times with interpretation. Interestingly, both the Wahoo and Wendy’s Garmin caused confusion a couple of times but, fortunately, not at the same time. I was particularly pleased with the control the Wahoo update provides for the Garmin Varia - only switching the light on when it detects traffic. It usually struggled with battery life for a full day, so this made a huge difference. Having said that, the Varia has just completely died, but that’s a story for another day.

Shame you missed the statue of the Soldier in Seaham it's really impressive and poignant. Unless you flew past it with Paul!

Hi Roy and Wendy may I ask what are you pair using to communicate while you are riding ,it seems a lot easier than Jackie and me shouting and waving at each other which is what we are doing at the moment?.

@RideWithRoy

Hi, Doug. We do shout and wave (usually Wendy telling me to slow down) so no technology involved. We do use radio microphones to record the video, but we can’t hear the result when riding. I will try to get hold of some comms units to test, as I have no experience of these. On the other hand, it can be useful to be selectively out of earshot..😀
