Great idea for a video, well done for completing your challenge. 👍 Your video gives a greater impression of the speeds that the riders travel at than the coverage you see on the TV.
Thanks for watching and commenting...👍🏻 Yeah, when the riders went past me at km zero I wasn't able to recognise any of them at the speed they were travelling. Cheers...🚴🏼
The Old Bloke on a Bike, on foot and on a train. :) I did consider going to watch the tour go up The Rake, but remember watching The Milk Race go up many years ago,. Decided not to bother. Rode a sportive instead that day up across the border into Scotland. Keep up the good work. Thank you for your sweat and videos.
Thanks for watching and commenting Duncan. Yeah, The Rake in Ramsbottom would have been a good place to watch it if you could get a good vantage point in amongst all the spectators. The last time I rode up there I nearly came to a stop, the pros make it look so easy. All the best and happy cycling up north...🚴🏼
Thank you very much! I like a challenge, but must admit at one point I didn't think I'd make the start having set off late. All worked out in the end, and I really enjoyed the day. Cheers...🚴🏼
Another good video. Recognised and rode most of the route. Pestfurlong Hill, School Lane and Ashley. I take it some of it was on the Trans Pennine Trail? 😊🚴
Yes Paul, you are right, some of the ride was along the superb Trans Pennine Trail between Dunham and Lymm. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers...🚴🏼
Thanks for watching Josh, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, I didn't know whether I'd given myself enough time, having only come up with the idea for the video that morning, and the camper kicking up all the dust and blocking the road was a bit stressful. I was relieved when he turned off. Thanks also for sharing my channel, very much appreciated...👍🏻
Thanks Mark. It's a great experience watching the pro cycling races, even if it's a bit of a blur when they go past. Glad to hear you've managed to see them also. Cheers...🚴🏼
Good effort Dave👌 You probably burned as many calories as the pros 🥵 I watched it on the box, probably saw more of the race but missed out on the atmosphere and the sunshine 🌞 .... and the exercise.
