Katherine Hepburn said in The Rainmaker, “ Madagascar is an island in the Indian Ocean, off the coast of Mozambique “. Thanks to modern technology you were cycling 9,515 kms. from Portlaoise but you were always home.

Hi great video.. Myself and couple of friends have done the canals and old rail trail to Athlone. Looking at the barrow way to Carlow for our next cycle.. How much tougher is the none paved trail? Couple of us on road bikes couple on hybrids.. Thanks

@ronaldricejr 11 ай бұрын

Hi Pete! I've not been cycling since early last year so I'm not sure how much of the "way" has been paved since I did it last. I think when you leave the canal behind at Athy you'll encounter most of the unpaved sections along the river to Carlow. I used an Orbea gravel bike (38mm tyres) which was just fine for every surface I encountered. The one thing I didn't properly allow for was time. It takes a lot longer to cover a set distance unpaved than it would on tarmac. For example, when I did the section from Carlow to Goresbridge my moving time was 1:39:00 (18kph avg.) but I returned by road which took me 00:51:09 (30kph avg.). I wouldn't take a roadbike on any of the unpaved sections.

Great video. I'd tried Rouvy a few years ago but never really settled in. I've been in and out of Zwift, but prefer a more realistic looking ride. Right now I'm on Wahoo Systm which includes RGT but would like a little more variety. I think I'll give Rouvy another chance. Thanks for the videos they've been really helpful in making a decision. We are of similar age. We should create a 60ish cycling club. Gotta stick together before we all fall over or get lost. Haha

Delighted I came across your video. Been looking at doing some bike packing around Kerry this year and wanting to keep off busy roads as much as possible. But didn't realize there was a viable cyclable off-road trail that cuts across the peninsula like that. Fantastic! Assuming that dog didn't attack! 😀

Aww, Ronnie…THANK YOU for one last look around Timahoe for 2022. You even went near the old school ( 2:11 ) where I spent 5 years of my life …what a treat ! This is so lovely. I hope you and your family have a wonderful 2023. I’m looking forward to travelling with you in the coming year as you revisit many old familiar places, and take us to many new ones. You really are an excellent host and travel guide. Thank you again. 💚🇨🇮🇦🇺❤.

You're welcome Christina. I watched the fireworks at Sydney Harbour on TV while having my lunch, before setting off on my spin. So, while I was cycling around Timahoe still back in 2022, you were already celebrating 2023 down under. Happy New Year to you and all your family :)

Good review video of Rouvy. Thanks for making it as I'm comparing it to Zwift which is different in some ways. How do you tell the difference between real people and bots? Is it the number after the name?

Rather than a thumbnail photo beside the name they have something that looks like a Pacman (if you're old enough to remember that ancient video game)

@pcmjpcmj6854 2 жыл бұрын

I think the bots do not have a numbered shield next to their name plus they (Emma, Will & Peter) appear in every ride. I am just using the free trials that many of the apps offer before deciding which to settle on.
