    hello everybody it is a sunny Friday morning so I’m using the most of the sun’s nectar to power my Cod loins around a 200 km ride I’m not going to film loads of today basically I just want to make a little announcement about something that hopefully you can all get involved in on August bank holiday that’s the UK bank holiday Monday’s a bank holiday in the UK so there’s no excuses not to get involved cuz you got a day off after um but yeah I’ll give you the details as I ride today I’m resuing a route that’s going to be part of it for 12 people with me and Kyle um and I hope that everyone else can get involved in their own way as well and it’ll be for charity right so I’m 10 Malones into my ride and I’m at my local bike shop valarian they’re not open it’s too early in the morning but hopefully when I come back here later they will be and I can pop in and say hi so my idea is called 100 for happiness and what I want everyone to do is do something with a 100 and raise money for charity any charity that is close to you that you want to raise money for so you could do 100 mile bike ride you could do 100 km bike ride you you could do a ride together two of you do 50 Mi each make it 100 you could do 100 Hill reps you could do 100 laps anything with a 100 and it would just be really nice for everybody on the same day to know that everyone is doing something hard a challenge for you whatever is a challenge for you it’s different for everybody um I’m raising money for a good cause now I’m now going to be doing a 100 mile ride from here and then back home which means it’s 200k for me and what I want to do is get 12 people to come and do the ride with me and Kyle on that day in August um so so we have a straa group Amy C Adventures so if you join the club I’m going to be putting a post on there and anyone that’s interested and then we’ll pick 12 people at random to come and do it with us but if you don’t get picked I still want everybody to do something 100 if you can obviously if you’re on holiday don’t worry about it we all need a break 3 years ago last week me and my dad actually did our first ever 100 miles and we took all day we didn’t have like we didn’t have cleat I did on my Carrera and we absolutely loved it and that feeling of doing your longest ever run it just you feel proud of yourself and it doesn’t matter how long it takes so yeah don’t be worried to give it a go obviously if you’ve only ever done like a 10 mile ride before I’d say don’t go and do 100 because you don’t want to push yourself too much but even if you got a group of five of you to do 20 miles each that’s 100 miles together so do what works for you but don’t be worried you don’t have to wear light cray yeah just enjoy yourself and do it for a good cause might pop into M and D on the way on my route because could have a b a lunch there I’ve got some sweet potatoes in my back pocket I love them for a snack mid ride and I’m thinking if they’ve got a tinner tuna I could whack it on there this weather it feels like summer is here I’ve L just been riding with a smile on my face I just thank goodness I’m in short sleeves I’m in bib shorts I’m not cold I’ve not got a jacket with me I’ve not got a rain jacket with me don’t want to jinx it it did say it’s not going to rain I mean the sky is blue so it’s just great anyway I’m just stopping to note down on my phone how many miles into the ride the cafe is cuz that’s very important I’ve just gone past it CU of course any ride I’m doing involves the cafe but not today actually I’m not I’m not stopping today I’m I’ve got more my snacks with me I’ve got my Jackie potatoes so I’m doing it on a budget today but um yeah so far the route looks good hopefully we’ll get this weather I hope we do if not like I say we’re not made of sugar paper not going to melt so we have to just get on with it won’t we hello there old fellow look at that Beast so just riding along thinking why haven’t I gone through Mom and Dad’s Village I’m sure I was meant to go that way I was like oh no just follow the Garment I’m sure I rooted it on just looked down I’ve gone past where they live and I’ve not rooted on I’ve did the route last night I’m sure I put it through their Village but obviously didn’t so I’m not going to get me bling tun on a jacket potato now but it doesn’t matter I’m over 100 km in 63 Malone and yeah over halfway I’m going to have my Jack of potato in a minute though cuz I’m a bit hungry summer is here hallelujah I’d also love that anyone that gets involved to like send me in a little video of what you’re doing in landscape mode and I’ll try and include some on the YouTube that I do about the day so it’ll be really nice to see what everyone else is doing and obviously like share what you’ve done in the straw group so we can all celebrate each other’s success and hopefully raise some money for good causes I’ve done eight 86 Malones I’ve got 39 to go and I thought well I’m not having a cafe today so let’s stop and eat my sweet potato I’ve already eaten one of them but you just can’t beat an ice salty potato on a ride just the best snack all got to make sure me tin for doesn’t drop on the FL it want a litter no littering around here now it doesn’t look very appetizing it’s got this little hair sticking off it um I don’t if you meant to eat that bit but I’ll eat it I don’t care um it doesn’t look great but nice Natural Energy it’s what you need doesn’t always need to look pretty these on the other look pretty these roses are they roses P Junius I don’t BL me know

more could you want m m this my friends is a top a snack used normal potato as well but I didn’t have any left so sweet it was and sweet it is cheaper than a chy latte but that be anything at top this

onve old equ speaking excited yesterday the brand new pinell look at this bad boy how many shops have got this in six um so there’s three in the north and three in the South so uh you’re one of them we’re lucky to have one on them how much is this going out the back bank balance down by so one of the key points is as well as all the advancements in the bike they’ve actually kept the price the same as the old model so in a market where it seems to be a increases all the brands pin have kept at the same price in this iteration with your race it’s 12,600 still still a lot yeah still a lot but if you got the dollar you go for it the ultimate right yeah yeah wow Kyle don’t be getting any ideas we’ve got a kitchen extension to be doing it’s okay we’ve got the yes from Luke 100 miles can go

hit like a spindle with it so you don’t want like a you don’t like a hard Ender of a hammer so you kind of just knock something right or uh yeah stuff that’s kind of got a bit stuck but you don’t want

I feel like my energy is back up after all points no first ride where I felt these lines you give me something good here the last few weeks I’ve been like what what’s happened to them but feeling good

did get told off for using me that on the last par so Dan we’ll be happy with that you will no but I’m really excited to actually I’m actually doing 350 tomorrow 360 I think it works out K KY can I just to point out one thing I’m going to come on the com to so why aren’t you doing 300 tomorrow cuz doing 300 on Sunday then you’re going to be end up doing 3 660 is just how my route worked no no sorry it is 350 tomorrow right right and 300 on Sunday yeah so it’s actually 650k but that’s just how my route worked and it has been submitted so there’s no changing now I’m actually going to be giving car the camera tomorrow aren’t I I think but I’m a bit concerned where the camera’s going to go cuz I normally have it on a top Tu B I’m put a top Tu bag on no way you need to put you need to put a sadle bag on for your tools cuz you you can’t do I’ve already tested no I’ve tested I can get all my Ines my spares in there as well can you and even if I just put my snacks in my back pocket I

Club ride saying a me and need something cuz I won’t be coming out to can I just point to out yeah whenever I ever rang you for assistance you rang to cry to me last time you did a 600k but I kept going yeah I did it and you’ll be here sleeping tomorrow so I can get you nice dinner I’m not doing 600k before I get back home so it doesn’t matter yeah you’ll be all right Chester right Kyle is actually going to say you fancy taking Chester to the marina for a walk for coffee I’ve been out heat all day I’m getting my stuff set up and I need to rest okay I’ll take him on my own then should we go to walkie you can’t be jiggered can you who’s done the ride today has he been riding when I got back from work yeah I left him out in the garden and he was lounging about in the garden for a while so he’s probably a bit lazy you feeling lazy oh the Heat’s got to right then anyway we’re waffling on now so the next video will be car of 600k if he doesn’t take the camera with him we’ll just fil on could take the camera without the handle so yeah 24th of August that’s the whole point of this video put a link to my straa in the description so you can join the Amy cycling adventures club on straa all the info I’m going to put in there when this video’s gone out and yeah hopefully we can get some money raised for charity my mom might be doing 100K um for a caner charity um and me and K will

I’m glad that Luke said yes anyway TT to the FN goodbye goodbye

    1. Shortest summer ever, at least here in Wales where it has been miserable weather all weekend, and the forecast for the coming week isn't impressive either 😯

    2. Fab idea Amy. I’ll definitely be doing 100 for happiness. I ride for my mental health, to beat the negative thoughts, and help reduce anxiety. You and Kyle have been a huge motivation 💚

    3. I actually have a 100 mile ride planned for August 24th. It's called Hotter-N-Hell. This ride is in Texas, USA, so the temps should be around 40C. Nice and warm.

    4. This is awesome! I’m still working up to the long rides, I’m in the US so I should do miles but I don’t think I can ride that far yet. So count me in for 100 kilometers.

    5. Summer, what's that…I was riding around Liverpool in temperature of 59 in the rain, cold toes and fingers with several base layers on….this morning…Summer, what is this Summer you speak of 🤔🤔🤔 and over £12,000 for a bike, that's just ridiculous…

    6. Do you know where the idea of beans and toast came from…the USA Company Heinz. Created as a national food during WWII. Became so popular in the UK, Heinz had to build a plant there to keep up with the demand.

    7. Good luck with the charity bike ride, you got this, I raise money for cancer research and done 250 miles bike ride with 10000ft of hill over two days 👍

    8. Its funny you should mention longest rides in this video as I did mine yesterday😁170 miles which beat my previous best of 162 from 2 years ago, I do it every year to honour the memory of my dad😊I cycle from my front door to St Andrews and back and its such a beautiful ride, it was his special place😊Awesome video once again Amy, good luck with the charity ride👍

    9. Just an idea when you do your ride back from Italy, you post your route so people can come out and cheer you on just an idea. Love you channel by the way Amy.
