My last two weeks on Gran Canary have been packed with visits from home. I had a roof over my head, didn’t have to worry about a camp spot for the night and was surrounded by people that mean a lot to me .
But as fate would have it, I was gifted with one puncture after another. You gotta deal with what you get.
In this episode I’m about to become the fastest tire changer on Gran Canaria, but for now I didn’t receive any awards.
To be honest I also didn’t film a lot because I wanted to enjoy time with my friends without setting up my lightsaber (tripod) multiple times a day.
I am very proud to introduce you to Caroline at the end of the vlog. A brave bikepacking woman, full of light and joy of life! Or as she’d say: If you want to do it, DO IT! There is always a solution!
Cheerio, Goodbye, Salut and Adios!

Yes definitely! There are so many possibilities these days. Bike touring, Bikepacking, gravelbike, e-bike.... we just gotta pick one:)

Depends where you mainly ride, Touring is mainly road, bikepacking involves more offroad.

I would loved to have met Dervla Murphy or Anne Mustoe as they cycled the world on sit up and beg bicycles without motors. Anne Mustoe was an English retired school headmistress. Her books are a fabulous read. A Bike Ride and Two Wheels in the Dust. Sadly she died in 2009, aged 76, in hospital in Aleppo, Syria where she had fallen ill. Dervla Murphy was a cyclist from Ireland and wrote fabulous travel books. Full Tilt. She died a few months ago May 2022. She was 90 years old. And then there is Helen Lloyd who has cycled extensively in Africa. Her book is Desert Snow and also a great read. Josie Dew wrote The Wind in My Wheels which is also a great great read. So there are women cycling just that those that do tend not to make a song or dance about it, they just get on and do what they want to do.

This meeting with Caroline is incredible, it will certainly motivate more women to cycle and travel by bike is ageless... we do and will do it as long as we can!!! Good winds and a good path. Hasta luego or how do we speak in portuguese: até logo! 😊🚲🙏🌎⛺

Glad to see you back on the pedals. I think you might really appreciate tubeless once you try them.
@giantcheerio
@giantcheerio 2 года назад
I noticed that people either love or hate tubeless and there is nothing in between. Next time my tires are worn out I'll definitely give it a go!

Hi! There is another option. I have used Tannus Armour for last 2 yrs and swear by them. They are not 100% puncture proof but pretty close. I have had a tyre worn through and still be able to continue.

Great. Travelling is for everyone - no matter how Old are you. Just do it! Ps Tubeless isn't cheap at start cause of rims and tires, but it it very good for riding On low pressure (even on gravel sometimes we need it). Check out my IG. I'm following you already 😎 stay tuned! 🚴💨
