Great to see some of the local lanes I've been riding since getting a road bike last summer. I'll be sure to give you a wave should I see you out there! 👋

It’s actually quite reassuring that even the pro’s have to abandon the route sometimes! Anyway- all good for me as a sub, I got a new route up to Park farm from this so 🎉. And great route you did the other day to Oundle- I needed a decent length but not too hard post Xmas ride. I’m banking those for an MTB and a separate road ride for next week.

I was out yesterday , was bloody cold and go tubeless

Hi Tommy, The new bike that I am going to buy is a Marida Scultura 6000 2025 Di2 in team colours with carbon wheel set.

You’re always late! ⏱️⌚️

Nice one Tommy 👍🏼 say to electric Jake ? To get an electric pump . 😂

Have a look at UK Cycling Events. They're pretty good and i do the odd one just to ride some new roads.

I hear you on the bike hint! 😊

Great ride Tommy and Jake. Congratulations on your new baby boy. Happy New year to you and yours 😀

Hi Tommy, Happy new. Glad to see you back and riding. Went out for my first ride of the year myself today. was a very cold one 😬😀

Hi Tommy and Jake, poor Jake, still it did make for interesting video, I'm doing a couple of sportive the Cambridgeshire Classic not far from you and Startline Leicestershire doing middle routes on both, about 56miles, check them out.

Every ride does not go as planned.

Of Course I'm watching! You're very welcome mate!

Happy new year Tommy (and Jake)

Dad and I have enjoyed your videos throughout 2024.

Looking forward to your videos for next year. 2024 was a quieter ride time for me , only just under 3,500miles, as opposed to my 2017 total of just over 10,000 miles. But then again, I was a lot younger in 2017, only 67 years old. I need to re employ my motivation mode for next year. Blwyddyn Newydd Dda ( Happy New Year) to you and your family, and also to Jake. Fingers crossed for you reaching 1,000 subscibers.

Weather looks cracking for a December day 👌 Have a great new year 👊

Nice last ride Tommy, like you I’ve only ridden 1600 miles this year. Half of what I did last year, but suffered with an injured knee for a few months. So must do better next year. Happy New year mate and have a safe and healthy one.

Hi Tommy and Jake, My mileage for the year is 750 miles, it's the least I've done in all my years of cycling. Hopefully I will be more eager to put the miles in when I get my new bike. Congratulations and Happy New year.

Nice to see you out Tommy it looked a nice ride. I wish you and your family have a Happy and healthy New year. I look forward to your videos in the New year . Cheers 🚴👍

Weather looks great not like that here in Normandy France

Awesome video mate very detailed i subbed!

Well done to you and Jake. Was a cold and rainy day. Thank you for the birthday 🎉 shout out. We had a fantastic afternoon and evening being altogether.

I enjoyed your I just wanted to share with you that if I have a bill to pay or whatever for go to the grocery store I will ride my bike. I don't have a car and I don't want one. Even in the winter I'll ride a bike. I just bought a real big coat for the winter hats and gloves. I just wanted to tell you that

Nutters! But we'll done getting out there. It all counts!

Miles are miles in my book, I did get my gravel bike I spoke of and love it!! You will see pics on my strava. Love you vids mate keep them up!

Another great video Tommy. Good to see you riding out the storm 👍

This is the sort of ride I’m wanting to do on a gravel bike. I don’t think I have your and Jake’s strength to do all that on a mountain bike ha! Thanks for sharing the route. I’m gonna check it out. Saw some bits of route I love (Park farm ❤) and lots I want to discover like the Castor to Nene Park run.

Well done for battling the elements Tommy. Nice video. 👍😊

Nevada Hardware

Nice one Tommy. It's all about making the best possible use of what you've got. And I think that this set up does just that.

I cant see a big tele 🤔

Nice one Tommy. 👍

We’ve just subscribed - great to have local videos and Strava routes / cafes to reccy. I’m just about to invest in a new bike for winter. Current set up is a much loved classic Specialized Dolce for summer and a hefty Trek mountain bike for winter. I could do more with a good lightweight gravel bike round here in winter so looking at a couple - Specialized in Rutland let me take out their Crux Comp which was amazing. I’m also looking at Cube. Any suggestions welcome 😅 Good to see all your considerations for a winter bike!

Riding in this country at this time of year is always a challenge. So well done for getting out there again. Stay safe on the roads matey. 👍😊

Was out saturday morning myself around that area, still on the summer bike .

Good video again Tommy good to see you on your winter bike nicely set up .I was out on my winter bike Saturday I did 32 miles and yes the Autumn colours look great.

Takes a lot of determination to get out on a cold winters morning, but i feel so good once done, battling the elements and pushing 😊along the winters bike is a massive part in enjoying nice quick summer rides, which is what i tell myself in the cold and wet mornings

Ginge 🙋‍♂️ always happy to be remembered by a muck spreader!

I have a 10 year old Speclized s works Tarmac SL4 for my summer bike. Marin Gravel bike for Winter. But have just bought a Speclized Roubaix for endurance riding. Love it so much I don't want to stop riding it.

Nice video. Summer Bike Ribble Ultra Slr Just bought a Ribble CGR with a set of wheels for Gravel and a set for Road. Wilier Izotard sits on my trainer. Did a full winter solely indoors last year and drove me mad, so the new CGR is just used as a break from the boring indoor months allowing me to still do weekend rides with the club and off road with my young daughter.

Great video! I know the feeling making it home in time before getting told off!😂 thats me every weekend! Its generally "oh I'll only be 2 hours!" Get back 2 &1/2 hours later!

Good to see the videos back on the channel.👍 I've got a couple of summer bikes. A 2011 Scott CR1 carbon, rim brake. 50mm wheels, but with an alloy braking surface. 2nd summer bike is a Scott Addict Di2 Ultegra disc. 2019 carbon. I love it, but still get out on the CR1 quite often, and it still puts a smile on my face. My winter steed is a Merida 500 disc, hydraulic Hope cailpers and rotors.,but with cable Ultrega. It always has full mudguards on it. Not really a fan of 'cartoon cycling'(turbo). But have got a Saris turbo with Ant +, which I use with MyWhoosh. Used to get terrible shoulder and neck ache, because there was no movement on the bike, but made myself a 'rockerplate'. It does the job just fine, and for almost neglible outlay financially. It's also got some quirky visual grahics, just to make the experience a bit less boring. You may have seen some pics of it on my Insta or Facebook page. I leave a very cheap bike, that I picked up, connected to it. Saves a lot of hassle putting a bike on and off it. Not to mention wear and tear on a decent bike. Keep the vids coming.

💪🏻🫶🏻

Always happy to see a tommy vid

Hi Tommy great video again, with regard to putting the summer bikes away I have held off later than usual due to the decent weather we have had. My winter bike has done a few rides and is all ready to go for the winter.

Another top vlog there Tommy! Looking forward to the Ultimate unboxing vid next year! 😜

My summer bike went away months ago 😂😂 im far to soft. Its a zwift life for me 😂😂
