QUITTING My Job As An Electrician For YouTube! What Am I Thinking?!?!

After a year trying to convince myself going back to being an electrician was a good move, I've finally made the decision to walk away (again) !
My passion in life is cycling and having been around bikes and the cycling industry for 14 out of the last 15 years, I decided I'd like to get involved with bikes again, this time though this RU-vid channel.
Since I started this channel in January, the satisfaction that its given me is off the charts. I love making the videos and engaging with cyclists from around the world. So we're going full time!
I'm nervous and excited in equal measures, to see what the future holds.
Please follow the journey and subscribe.

Dave, im here for it mate. I started cycling almost 1 year ago and its led me on an epic journey, I lost 5 stone since then and found so much more life. Cycling has given me so so much and its people like you that have helped and inspired me. Your channel reaches so many people already and it's only just beginning for you, there's great things ahead dude. All the best for this next chapter of your life.

Imo a good option is to try to make friends and collab with other cycling youtubers and get people to find your channel that way. Do podcasts, go on rides with them, do challenges with them etc. Just a few ideas - hope it helps. 🚀🚀

Really great content yet again Dave, cheers for posting this up. Not going to wish you luck as it were as because you've been a business owner too you & I both know there's absolutely no such thing as 'luck' in its purest form - you only get out what you put in. Having said that I suppose the harder we work the 'luckier' we become. Anyway, it's a great channel & between yourself & Tony yours are the two channels I always look out for updates & new content. Local lad too, albeit we never cross tyre tracks, so it's good to see the local scene doing so well. Seems like the Reifin gang have got some serious horsepower going on this year too, the Blind* is def going to be interesting/painful. *unless you're a northern roadie this will mean FA to you. First rule of the Blind is you NEVER talk about the Blind.
@daveridesagain
@daveridesagain 4 месяца назад
Thanks mate... You're dead right, you definitely make your own "luck" and generally get out what you put in... Hence me going all in 👊 Tony's a good lad, RU-vid veteran compared to me.... "The blind" is a bit too far North for me, but I'll maybe have a ride up on a nice summer night... 😎

Until I saw this update.....I speculated that you had either had massive buyer's remorse regarding your impulsive Aeroad CFR purchase, or that you'd crashed her into a thousand carbon shards before you could do the review. I'm glad I was wrong on both counts. Amazing garage of equipment you have, three super bikes in your fleet, both your S-Works and the CFR. Seems like you perhaps suffer from that cycling syndrome loosely referred to as "Ideal = N + 1" which afflicts so many. All the best on the YT journey, will be following every step.
@daveridesagain

Thanks for the comment! Update on the Aeroad coming tonight... Yes, I LOVE bikes and bike kit..... Imagine being surrounded by it everyday as I was, owning a bike store.. I'm slowly trying ( but failing! ) to ween myself off the impulsive buys..... LOL!! Theres just so much great kit out there... Thanks for watching and the support! :-)

Not sure that's a good idea; there are already lots of quality YT cycle channels and YT does not pay much. You are also vulnerable to YT's algorithms which can change without notice as well as their payment policies. (They reduced payments a few years back, and wouldn't surprise me if they do it again).
