Riding The Trek Madone SL6 Gen 8 For The First Time On The Manchester 100 mile

[@MikeRidesBikes89]

Grand day out mate. Thanks for the invite 👌. Looking forward to a lot more big rides out in the near future 👍🏻

[@CyclingwithRuss]

We certainly will mate. The Fred Whitton is probably the next event where we will all be together. I know Scott’s doing it and I think Aky will be as well. Be hard or impossible to keep us together round there though

[@CorneliusNortje-ib7qp]

Absolutely love the video's Russ, it is an inspiration for me to never give up. 👍

[@CyclingwithRuss]

Thank you 🤩 if I can do it with my history anyone can do it.

Well done Russ!...I recognised Beard on a Bike as I follow him and your right, he is a beast!.....Looked a great day out mate.

[@CyclingwithRuss]

He’s so strong on the bike. He’s got all the tools in his locker

[@vincentini1]

Just got the same bike a few weeks ago, but in red. And I like your comment, "It feels like the bike wants to go faster." I feel the same thing riding it.

[@CyclingwithRuss]

It’s such a good bike. Glad you like it mate it’s deffo a do it all bike ❤️

@@CyclingwithRuss I had a Domane 4.0c, 2013 I'd been riding. The minute I got on that new Madone, PR after PR, total game changer.

[@CyclingwithRuss]

@@vincentini1 that’s mega mate. Enjoy it and the PRs

Great videos keep up the good work we will have to get out for a ride sometime I live in Bolton we ride a lot round Rivington

[@CyclingwithRuss]

Deffo matey. Always up for ridding with new people 🤙

[@bubby372]

If you think the SL is fast you wouldn't believe how fast the SLR is. I leave my A- group in the dust on my SLR7. Fastest bike I've ever ridden.

[@CyclingwithRuss]

Shaun who was in this. Video was on a SLR7 gen 7. He flys on that bike. Hoping next summer I can borrow one to try somewhere nice and hot 😉

[@kevstephen9393]

I believe everyone gets the new bike placebo effect.

[@CyclingwithRuss]

There’s a element of that but this bikes still fast. Check my strava out. I’ve done over 500 miles now and most of the rides except for my commute as been decent average speed and picking PR’s up on segments I’ve performed loads

[@michaelwarren6602]

Top ride Russ well done 👏.

[@CyclingwithRuss]

@@michaelwarren6602 cheers matey ❤️ one fast bike 😉

[@langy1318]

Well done mate, how is the seat to handlebar relationship height wise, is it set up different from your domane?

[@CyclingwithRuss]

It’s different but not uncomfortable. Need to do a 100 mile hilly ride though to get a better understanding of the comfort level for me.

[@BeardonaBike]

I think you could have all hit the average speed you just went too hard at the beginning and paid for it later. Next time listen to the professional bonker I’ve loads of experience 🤣

[@CyclingwithRuss]

Really wish we had done 🙈. We could have easy hit the target as a group. We will have to arrange something soon but something better than that route 🙈

[@BeardonaBike]

@@CyclingwithRussOrganise it again when it’s dry and not so windy and get everyone organised. Just need to figure out potential feed stops.

A normal guy who just loves to ride a bike and makes videos about it...give me one reason not to subscribe...😁

[@CyclingwithRuss]

I’ve got nothing 🙈 I once smashed a cup when I was 8 and blamed my sister for it and she got in trouble 🙄 thank you 😍
