i'll follow you up i've been at the help this morning i'll have you know that's why i found
some chances look at him go today's video a lot of you're gonna hate me for this but i'm gonna
give you maybe six or seven things that i just i can't get on with in cycling in the cycling world
these are all things that are widely accepted and i just disagree with them they're just not for me
maybe it's because of the type of writing but let me know if you agree or disagree in the comments i
think this is going to cause a lot of disagreement look at my player poking through like a little
pixie it's phil's birthday as well well on sunday rifle age of 56 over 40. it is true you'd been oh
i can do a left-handed one look watch this look at that could be in the pro peloton
you're disgusting first thing co2 cartridges i've just never
ever had the urge or the need to use them i just use a pump because you've got ultimate repairs on
the go i think the co2 i've seen so many people run out of um cartridges and i just think it's a
bit of a waste just get one pump you can just pump all day and you're never gonna be left
without air because it's just infinite re-pumps
wider pumps make you smile deflated oh what no to co2 yes to race rocket
the next thing and i've talked about this before i
hate with a passion gels i understand how they work for pro riders that they're all measured
i think for the average rider i don't think we need them it just
i don't know you just see them all over the floor i'm like god is this so expensive as well
so my solution is medjool dates baby they're cheaper the better for you they've got fiber
they're amazing all the alternative is i just put sugar in a water bottle i've actually done a video
where i've actually looked into the type of sugars and stuff that they use in gels and how you can
get the same thing but just for cheaper and doing it homemade so i'll leave that video below gary
oh this is beautiful where are the boats long gone push them in
i could make them deep section the next thing is going to cause outrage it is deep section
rims i think they look really beautiful and i think if you're doing loads of tt
you want to be really aero and where you ride it's not windy i get it
but for me doing like long endurance days hilly stuff i just can't see the drawer room
like darren's got um some deep sections and like one one long ride and he's um and it's
starting to get windy and he's just like oh it doesn't affect the handling like he said he's
like i've got used to it but i just don't want that risk and like because i'm always up high up
i don't like the feel sometimes i don't even like the feel on like really little narrow like shallow
rims but like deep station no definitely not for me i don't think i ever will be do you like them
yeah didn't look cool i think they look this is the thing they look really nice and i think they
sound really nice but like practic impractical not my approach every i just don't like ah
it's not for me just something in cycling that everyone loves and everyone like wants
i don't want them i need to get a spider from helmet there's a spider don't kill it let me
get it where is it is that rap my advisor there right on with ours deep section rims no no no
it's quite chill isn't it we're under this height to write this pure extract smooth
dexterity and agility the next thing that i'd like to talk about is my favorite thing gearing
and my annoyance i guess with it or things that i can't don't get and i won't ever have
it's like just crazy crazy high gearing and i again i understand if you live somewhere flat
i get it but i see a lot of people especially like when i used to do sporties and stuff having
to push up climbs i'm like you don't need to push up a climb just get lower gearing
and simple as that just get lower gear it's better for your knees you can get higher cadence
and for endurance it's just better because you can just go all day so my recommendation for
um low gearing is grx 4630 chainrings at the front 34 at the back and yeah i love this group set
shimano so yeah don't you don't need to struggle woohoo because you're going to be an old man soon
there's three kids over there that have got roller boots on
and it's scary i broke my wrist that's touch wood that is the only bone that i've ever broken
and i did it on a pair of roller boots when i was like seven
oh what's he got what have you got that's your bob roll he asked for so i could just prop it there
come here no that's dangerous why is it dangerous that is a bad idea if the other things haven't
made you want to shun me from the cycling community this next one will
i don't like coffee and cake i know that it's the reason why a lot of people ride but
don't like coffee not really and cake take it or leave it and the last one is a little
bit frustrating it is g-lays that don't have pockets give us all the pockets i want all the
pockets to carry all my crap more pockets the better well done raffa all pockets more pockets
all the pockets right i'll see you next video let me know what your like like gripes or annoyances
are in like the cycling world below and i will see you all next video i dislike people who dislike
other cyclists for doing something different to what they do particularly e-bikers i think if
you've got an e-bike really just ride it right right yeah live and let ride you got a 29er
ride it if you've got a bike from alfred's ride it best bike in the world is the one that you own
that's true so that is a really really good don't dig on anyone else just get on with it where's
the wisdom oh clever clever clogs look how slow they're walking look they practically stopped
this last one i don't know what to say pickles my nipples
