Hi Guys
Welcome to our latest episode in our ADVENTURES in our TINY FLOATING HOME.
This bonus episode is sponsored by Eleglide. After finding life shuttling the car between its last parking location and the boat and struggling to get to the shops when we need to we decided to investigate how an electric bike would suit our lifestyle.
In this special episode we partner with Eleglide and find the perfect solution.
Watch us take delivery, build and ride our new electric bike and give you an honest evaluation which now helps with our OFF GRID LIFESTYLE living on our NARROWBOAT.

Looks good but agree with other comments, Helmet’s are a must and mudguards for the wet days will be very useful.

Don't forget, if you are storing it on the boat, make sure to have some real heavy duty security stuff Chains, Locks etc .. and take the battery off when not in use I have a Cyclomatic 4.5" Fat Tire MTB E-Bike and it's a beast of a machine Wait 'til you get on a hill With the assist it feels like somebody is pushing you up the hill, with hardly any effort on the pedals Be careful going downhill as well. I left the assist on (big mistake) and ended up in a hedgerow having misjudged my speed and the bend
@cruisingontheborder
@cruisingontheborder Год назад
Hi UKCM 🙏 for commenting. Yes security will be important on the boat, we have that all covered now. You had us both laughing and gasping at your accident downhill, we hope you are ok and no injuries 💕💕. Thanks for the tip 👌. Tune in this coming Sunday when are next episode is out 😀

@@cruisingontheborder Ye was giving it some welly down the hill, just to see how fast I could get to. Forgot the assist was on. Hit top gear, started to take the left bend and noticed the speedo -- 42 MPH -- ended up on wrong side of the road and then in and over the hedge Cuts and bruises that was all, nothing seriously hurt..... except, maybe, my pride 😃😃😃😃😃

Hi John We really like the bike. It does come with mudguards but we hadn’t fitted them at the time of filming. We do have a helmet but as the test ride was only a few metres we didn’t use it but we should have done and do so now. We can recommend the bike and there is a decent discount with our code. Watch our for another e bike review coming up on our channel soon. 👍❤️

Hi John. The chicken tandoori is every inch my (Michael ) own creation from the marinade to the cooking. It’s Jaq’s fave so I try to do it regularly. It’s a bit of a faff as there’s a lot of prep but it tastes great and I make a curry sauce from scratch to go with it. Brownie points for me John! Always need those pal as you no doubt know 🤣🤣🤣
