What a great way to start the day. I used to live in this area and it was a real treat to see those hills and views again. Thanks Thomas

Loving the channel mate. Enjoyed the video of you riding Centennial Park in Sydney which is 500 metres from where I live. Thank you for motivating me.

[@sunil.mampatta]

Nice video Thomas, liked the way you have mixed the beautiful scenery along the way with the ride stats. Keep going. 👍

[@renaissancestrings9264]

Hey Thomas, mate I love your videos. I've been living out here in China for a while now and before every big ride I watch a video or two of yours for inspiration. Love the energy.

[@cormacjordan7173]

Yes mate! I've done a lot of MTB around the peaks over the years. Might have to crank the road bike round there after seeing this. Good effort!

[@philwatts2785]

Great video, great editing very professional once again. Keep up the great work. 👍

[@darrenowen3797]

I did a sportive from Bakewell last weekend and that was brutal, 113 miles with 13,000 feet of climbing also around the Peak District, well done

[@danm9297]

Hey this is my city!!! Love the Peaks, ride out there all the time. They find out what you're made of.

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

The peaks are incredible… 🙌

[@DTB1976]

[@Powerwashincrocs]

Great video, man! Just woke up to get ready for a 143 mile ride and this was perfect for getting me pumped up

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

🤪🤘

[@dominicbritt]

Great job mate - what an effort. A lot of my local climbs… but I never thought of doing them in the same day 😎.

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

🤪🤘🙏

[@paulwilliams4990]

Great video and excellent riding, looked a real tough day.

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

It was pretty savage! 🤪🤘

[@waynekerry6559]

That was epic Tom, I live in Sheffield and those climbs are brutal but a lovely place 😀

NICE! You change teaser of your vlog, this teaser is better than the previous one.

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

Thanks... glad you like it! 😁🙏

[@Gixer750pilot]

I think that was Micks first ever fist bump 👊 😂

[@johnpattison46]

Local roads that just keep giving, Essex this weekend for me on Ride London

[@gregortowers1805]

Great video! But 'Mr I'm gonna take it easy' Next video clip you're sprinting 😂

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

🤣🤣🤣👍

[@Luke-gi4tn]

Awesome video as per usual!

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

😁🙏

[@kenwynn3871]

Awesome, have you tried out the North Pennines, can rack up some serious gain

[@JetMB]

Wicked effort and great episode keep it up sirr

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

🙏🙏🙏

[@L.ACyclingVlogs]

Incredible route!

[@PaulAngeloff]

Given the terrain 14.3 mph seems pretty good to me. Looks incredible but those roads look awful small. Narrow. Anyways good stuff Thomas. Subscribed!!!

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

I love the narrow lanes... makes it more fun!

[@ZombieGregS]

Another great video

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

😁🙏

[@harrybrooks03]

Good effort CT.

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

🙏🙏🙏

[@duttyvegan]

Great channel 👊🏾

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

🙏

[@michaeljordan7451]

So after walking some of them climbs i can say Mam Tor is a beast, would love to know the ratios you are using to get up them climbs. Great work and great videos keep doing what you do

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

52/36 32/11... 😁👍

[@AdyWalter]

Another fantastic video. Cracking effort on the climbing, nice one. Out of interest, what cassette do you run? I'm limited to an 10/28 until I can get a new bike and it's a killer on the hills. Leith Hill was the hardest one to date. Next big one is ride London 100 in a few weeks down your way.

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

52/36 32/11... 👍

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

Good luck with Ride London...

[@alexkerslake4613]

best intro in the game

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

🤪🙏🙏🙏

[@Lacehairwigs]

Loved it

[@syrus3k]

I've done this ride.. it was brutal, rained like mad all day. Managed it but only just

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

Oh it’s tough alright… 🥵

[@syrus3k]

not sure it was the same.. I did 'tour of the peaks', my strava says I did 4,339 m of climbing. It took me just under 10hrs lol.

[@CB-ft9es]

SIck video... but where's your coat from in the car @ 2:51 min :) love it!

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

It’s Levi’s... 😁👍

[@tman1500]

nice ride dude! what is the tarmac like over there? potholes or smooth?..

[@peterthomson8453]

LOL! you gota love the mommies basement crowd. Always have so much to say about everyone and everything based on nothing but surfing a keyboard.

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

🤣👍

[@tomrachellesfirstdance7843]

We already know about what you did in Mallorca 😉 crazy man

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

[@adammorton6923]

Class

[@jamesking3162]

Another lovely video love the colour looks a great colour looking for something similar myself any advice or suggestions? Would be greatly appreciated?

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

The colour of..?

[@jamesking3162]

The bike 🚴 looking for something like that myself

[@ABiketoEscape]

wonderful ride! It looks indeed close enough to be the hardest century you can do. One question, video related, how do you add the elevation profile animation to your video?

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

It was definitely tough... no two ways about it! And umm it’s a bit too long of a process to explain, but the jist is I use photoshop and then animate it on premiere...

[@ABiketoEscape]

@@TheCyclingTattooist that makes sense. It looks cool!

[@jeremynice3374]

Big day in the chair fella 💪👍🏻

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

🙏🙏🙏

[@Joeliustothemaximus]

Love the videos mate! One thing I’ve struggled with is how you set up your Garmin ahead of rides etc… is it as simple as starting a ride on strava? Do you copy across the GPX file? Not the most fun idea for a vid, but appreciate any guidance you have 😅

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

I’m not quite sure what your asking... but if you mean do I plan my routes in advance on strava... then the answer is yes! Always... and then upload them to the Garmin for the directions! 😁👍

[@Joeliustothemaximus]

@@TheCyclingTattooist thanks for responding mate, sorry I wasn’t quite clear enough. In the video, you knew how many climbs there were coming up, length up the climbs etc. Is that natively in the ‘ride data’ when you upload the ride? Or is it something you’ve had to customise on your garmin? Sorry for the confusion 😁 Love the videos!

[@monrezee]

20:35 was very funny.

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

😁🙏

[@andeez4663]

Please tell us what gear ratios you use for a sportive like this. I'd be on a 34-50/ 11/32!!!!

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

52/36 32/11... 👍 (but I’d recommend easier!)

[@gianfook]

I hope I can get a tattoo on my calf that looks like I hit my leg on the cog done by you one day.

[@mikebrown600]

This is a legit bike rider’s channel.

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

🙏🙏🙏

[@richardward7637]

Cracking vid as always !! It’s a good job your a lot faster rider than rest of your mates or your filming would be all on bike . I’ve done Newark castle 100 sportive today , I challenge you make a good video out of that ! Boring as fuck! Good luck mate keep em coming.

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

🤣👍

[@canyonrider9597]

Your canonndale super six evo is "candy red"?

[@TheCyclingTattooist]

I’m not sure what the colour is called... but it’s the only red “hi-mod” that they do...
