Thank you Graham 👍

Great video again Daz and that route looked mega. I really like your style of presenting - just a normal guy riding his bike, no fuss with power overlays or heart rate. Your videos just capture all everyone loves about cycling - enjoying yourself with your mates or on your own and throwing in a cafe stop for good measure. It's the no frills to your channel that's refreshing.

Thank you so much for your kind words once again my friend. The videos are all about the ride and the odd occasion when Mike likes to play the jester, but at the end of the day we are genuine cycling enthusiasts who like to ride our bikes and share our adventures. We don't like to harp on about how privileged we are to be sponsored ( which we are not ) and don't claim a penny from the adds KZread likes to constantly push. Thanks once again and keep on enjoying your cycling too

Hi Andy, June seems like a long-time ago but so glad we did this route .

Poor Mike, the disappointed when he found out it was bracken and not cannabis 😂.. I know you have to stop regularly to film etc but if you weren’t filming on a ride like that do you stop regularly for a breather or do you tend to ride without hardly any stops. I tend to ride alone but I can imagine if your riding with someone or a group that would spur you on to ride further without rests I’m sure. I tend to stop every 10 miles but these days I tend to ride 40 miles tops and take my time enjoying getting out and and I’m certainly not looking to break any records. Always brilliant to see both you and Mike riding together and the detail in the filming certainly makes you feel that you can have a go at the ride even if you don’t take on the huge mileage you guys do. Always encouraging. Thank you.

We tend to ride at a consistent pace and don't really stop for a breather at all. We might stop to look at the view or to film it but in general we know what our limits are, we don't race, but we can ride hard if we want to do. Sometimes we may make it look easy without blowing our own trumpets, because we train regularly through the week . I always found it difficult to ride away from the lads on the group rides to film the flyby shots to then catch em up later, some days they were flying ! It's all part of the fun though. On Saturday I cycled over 42 miles to the cafe then did 62 miles nonestop back to home. It is always nice to have a Lucozade drink for 5 mins at about 80 miles for the final push. It really does work.Anyway, how are you buddy ? Are you getting stronger ...

Hi Daz. I have to say that sometimes I get a bit jealous at the speed your going on the rides, looks real fun. Not far off 60yrs old so I tend to go a bit slower but on a downhill my mind screams”your 21 again” and I go hell for leather and it’s great 😂 Months after the heart attack I’m doing good thank you. Cycling, both mentally and physically has help massively in unbelievable ways and I’m sure many of your subscribers would agree that cycling gives you a wonderful sense of freedom and that “feel good” feeling, and that’s what’s brought me through. Oh and there’s two crazy blokes that keep making encouraging vids that spur us all along, of which I am so grateful. Brilliant stuff. 👍 Thanks Daz and Mike for taking the time to do what you do. 😀

Cracking ride that pal.

Brilliant video and what a grand day out! That route into Dent looks lovely - I usually get there via Dent Head and Cowgill and out via Deepdale but will have to try the Barbondale road next time. Another vote for bog standard Halfords tubes! 🙂

Cheers OMC, the Barbondale route is breathtaking, if you try it, let me know what you think of it. In fact the whole route was pretty good to be honest . And yes, Halfords inner tubes can be a cheap option to use.

100% agree re TPU inners. They are just not robust enough for UK country roads, I tried them for a while and after multiple flats using three different makes (seam splits, unreliable valves etc) I've gone back to standard inners, and no more flats. I do miss the road noise the TPU inners made though, a real "I'm cracking along" whoosh!

Hi OGP, the sound of your tyres on the tarmac is something only a cyclist would understand, and I love it.... The roads we ride on are way to heavy for lightweight racing tyres and tubes and we are not quick enough to ride like the pros do to get any real benefit. In fact one puncture can take you half an hour to repair so where are the savings made ?

Fantastic route that might do same but start at grange over sands 👌

We’ve been looking forward to another one of your videos Daz and this one certainly didn’t disappoint. 👍🏻 Regarding punctures, have you and Mike ever tried going tubeless? I know a lot of people say they wouldn’t go back to tubes after trying tubeless, but I haven’t had as good an experience with them. Such a faff to fit and fill with sealant, then I would often get a puncture that wouldn’t seal, so I had to put a tube in anyway. Looking forward to the next video anyway!

Hi Sam, personally I am going to stick with what I know and what works best, and I have never had an issue with inner tubes or clinchers.( other than some tyres being extremely tight on the rim ) I think Mike tries to go for the lightest and race orientated set up which is great when you have a team car behind you with spares galore. He's tried veloflex tyres in the past too and had up to 3 punctures in a ride. I have also seen some of the lads on the group rides have Tubeless blow outs too. It all depends on your own thoughts as to where you want to take your cycling. I would prefer to have reliability and durability over marginal performance gains any day. Thank you once again though for sharing your thoughts and commenting buddy and keep on enjoying your cycling .

Proper adventure with the ferry crossing - nice touch. The Barbondale route is a beautiful road, and a bit cheeky as you drop into Dentdale. Mike's heat-related tube blow out is very worrying. Are those shallow carbon rims he's riding? I raced on Vittoria tubs which had latex inners without any problems but I had no luck at all with latex tubes in clinchers - punctures rather than heat-bursts - it was enough to send me back to butyl tubes.

Yes Gordon, there's two issues here, heat expansion and super thin latex. One of the quickest ways to make your bike lighter is through tyre and inner tube choice. I go the reverse in winter and my bike weighs over 400g more overnight when I fit Vittoria Endro tyres. They must be 90% rubber. As you know from riding around the Blue Ball lanes, they are super gritty roads with a lot of pick up from the farmer's fields and you cant start deflating your tyres before a major descent either. I think Mike noww knows what works best on these kind of rides

Hi Trevor, The Conti 5000's are a good choice. 28mm Gatorskins are good too if your frame will accept them but keep an eye on the sidewalls of Contis for the threads that start to appear. They can lead to a catastrophic blow out if you leave it too late to replace them, plus they can be a swine to fit on some rims, especially with cold fingers in winter ! They also need to be inflated with a good pump to "pop" the bead out evenly around the rim. I am liking the Vittoria Rubino Pro 2 tyres too, (or their latest equivalent) they are reasonably priced and have good all round puncture protection but once the tread starts to wear out they will have patches appear sooner than you would expect, if you get over 2000 miles out of them on our roads you are doing well.

@blackpuddingman5344
