Hi guys, join me and Mike as we head out for a lovely ride, visit a new coffee stop (one recommended by a viewer) and catch up with Mike to see how he’s recovering after his crash, how his subsequent training is going and how good it is to be on his brand new Envy bike……Enjoy 🤟
I’d be interested to know what you guys think, comments and suggestions always welcome. Thank you for watching 🤘

Thanks for the vid and thanks to Mike for sharing, I am seriously considering getting one of those ENVE Fray bad Bois. Nice bit of kit.
Glad you got to go to Heather farm 👍 Cliff
I'm always aware of how vulnerable you are on a bike vs. anything else – but after twice being hit by cars and having a helmet save what's left of my brain from a piece of wood jamming my front wheel at speed, it's difficult to face getting on the bike again – props to Mike and good to see you as always Ben! BTW, for inquiring minds…There's a breed of chicken named after the town of Dorking.
Glad mikes ok,there seems to have been alot of accidents in r.p this year caused by bike on bike. Will try heather farm.
Mike seems to be doing awesome. Good to see. Those bun rides will get you though. And I'm not talking about the distance.
I agree with Mike regarding a "two stop strategy". The stops are at least half the fun on a ride!
Kingston 👐👐 that's where I went to uni haha
You ever hop on some MTB's? You live just north of some nice stuff down in Surrey, probably know about them
Checkin’ in from Calgary, Alberta. Thanks for sharing a quality video. I have been digging your channel!
Great video. Keep them coming. Cheers
We love Gracious Pond Road, really pretty around Chobham Common. A few other really good café stops in that area are Basil & Blue in Chobham Village and also Elm Farm Café at Sutton Green.
Those mudguard things seem to be spreading! 😆
If you organise a group ride; count me in.
Brilliant content as usual Ben, glad Mike is on mend the bike looked gorgeous too keep the videos coming.
