You probably won't believe what I'm gonna tell you now. To look at me now at 23 stone and a lazy bustard, hard to believe that my highest mileage for cycling in a day is 118 miles on a training ride. That was cos we got lost and took a wrong turn. In 2013, at 17 stone in weight, we decided to do a charity cycle ride from John O'Groats to Lands End. Well, I did it !!! Rode every hill it threw at me and enjoyed every minute of it. I used to get to 60 miles and felt I'd just warmed up. I'm a weirdo like that. Hills killed me but on the flat I was like a BP supertanker and took some stopping.😁😁 There's a video on my channel of it. Get y'self a handlebar bag and a pack of fig rolls, keeps ya energy levels up and you can eat on the go. I ate 2 packs a day on that trip and we did 80-90 mile days for 12 days on the trot. I just shit like a goodun. Great vid, apart from the punctures, I bet that felt great.👏👏👏👏👏👏

I’ve got a theory that Ramblers only exist to make other people miserable. Very well ridden anyway mate, great lanes and the bike looks superb. The Honda stock tyres are really good on road and hard-pack but not so good on the lanes you’re doing….or dry grass surprisingly. I use Michelin Trackers at 15/20 psi for a good road/lane pressure with extra thick inner tubes. They’ll normally get you through (and up) most stuff. Another thing on steep downhills is to pull in the clutch and go down on the back brake so you definitely don’t get any engine drive. In my old trials riding days (around Ashbourne in the 70’s) you’d have a decompressor which was brilliant.
