- Massive thanks to the Velo Bavarian boys for pulling me along on this ride, there wasn't much time for yipeees, but there's always time for a cafe stop! I went to this ride convinced I’d be dropped in the first 20 miles but the loins pulled it off & my mind was determined. Defo need an Audax soon though - I’ve got withdrawal!
Thank you so much for watching, if you can spare a second to hit subscribe with your pinky that would be awesome.

Made me feel good at 62 years old doing 100 miles with 4000’ of climbing under 5 hours .
That’s AMAZING 🙌🙌🙌🙌
Incredible effort
None electric is a brilliant effort at your age,I’m 64 and couldn’t get anywhere near that.
@@jeffreylamont8111 , none electric , Pinarello F8 . Thanks
Yeah Brother that's a fabulous performance.
May I ask if you're a Pro or Category Racer and which ?
That's over the top strong.
In Texas road racing, which I'm familiar with that'd make you a Top Masters performer.
Bloom in’ eck. Great ride Amy well done. 106 miles = 170 km. That’s brilliant 👏
Thank you!!
a few more "bloomin' ecks" than usual.... very hard core riding with that mob - brilliant work Amy. Such an inspiration.
I made it 74 "Blooming "ecks' in 6 mins 49 seconds!!!

I have a friend from Amy's general area and when riding he seems to use a local variant that comes out as "Fooookin' El" . But then, he's not nearly as refined (or attractive) as she is.
Amy you are an amazing rider and a great inspiration. Not just because of the times, but - your amazing attitude, distances, challenging yourself with different events and locations, and sharing it all with us! Thanks 🥰
Ah thank you so much, too kind 🫶
Great job and 24 QOMs is a massive accomplishment. Girls in our area that ride with the boys are very strong riders and even do their share of pulls at the front. Don't ever doubt yourself. You are way above average on the bike, male or female.
Thank you so much Brian ☺️
Love to hear about other women riding too 🙌🙌
Did 60 in January for my 60th. Avg 15mph. Got back and spent rest of day on coach eating or asleep. Hope to get a ton done before summers out. Amazing job there Amy.
Awesome!!! Hope you enjoyed it :D
That's the beauty of pushing yourself. Sometimes, you achieve things you didn't know were possible! Well done, Amy!! Inspirational.
Exactly! Thanks so much ☺️
Well done Amy!! That’s inspiring!! 🤩
That’s a great achievement. I’m not surprised. You’re a really good cyclist. I’ve seen you bopping off those audax hills and still smiling when everyone else looks wrecked!! Don’t doubt yourself.
Ah thank you Graham ☺️
Awesome! Congrats on your accomplishment.
Taking it in your stride, a great ambassador for cycling.
Proper club rider... Epitomises what biking is all about. Keep going Amy. Your films are solid... 👍👍👍👍👍 You're a natural all rounder. Good things will come your way.
Thanks so much Nick ☺️ loving it 🙌
Amy, I've just discovered your channel and you are great! I'm down here in Australia and it's winter and it's cold but I'm enjoying your rides vicariously! Love your work! Keep it up!
Hiya! Ahh thanks so much glad you’re enjoying it, winter isn’t the funnest month for cyclists, hope I can bring a smile & some sun!
Great ride Amy, nice to see you riding round my neck of the woods.

Thanks so much ☺️ yes it was fun 🙌 and they 100% helped with the speed, group riding makes such a massive difference 🚴♀️
Some years ago I had the opportunity to go on a Garmin team ride out. 52 miles in the New Forest. Obviously concerned about the pace. But get in the middle of a bunch you’ll be surprised how you get dragged along. Throughly enjoyable.
Well done Miss Amy, well done. Looks like you had fun. Total beast mode the whole time.
Yes no dancing time on this ride 😂 thanks for watching!
Top effort young lady! That's an amazing effort. 👏
Thank you ☺️
Fantastic! Inspiring video - thanks Amy.

Nice one Amy. Well done. 👍🇮🇪
Congrats! Great VLOG of your accomplishment.

Chapeau! Any sub 5 hour century is a tremendous accomplishment for any cyclist!
Thank you! I was defo helped by the group but I’ll take it 🙌😂
Wowzers!! You have the perfect shape for cycling .... Chapeau
Absolutely flying 😊
Congrats on an under 5 hr. century ride. At the end of the video, you seem amazed by the speed like you went back in time.
Haha yes I was shocked 😂 thanks for watching!
So impressive. Amazing effort.
Outstanding Amy 👌👏👏👏
Congratulations. It helps at the back. Makes you work without killing you.

You’re an absolute beast Amy 🦾🦾
You rode like Beryl Burton, pounding that big gear! Enjoyed the video! Have a great summer!
Thanks for watching Jon! Haha I do like to ride in the big gears, I prefer it! You too :D
Bloomin Eck. Great ride and a very quick time. Well done.
Thank you!
You really made that look easy!! Terrified of a 100 mile ride I have coming up and this is the first video that has made me feel like I can do it
Ahh that’s great to hear ☺️ enjoy your rides!
Subbed Amy --
Great work, that is incredible !
Thank you so much! 🤍
And I did 30 miles today on a mountain bike and felt like a boss...... lol. you killed it! Love how you talk!
If you were in the mountains on a mountain bike a 30 mile MTB ride I would say is similar to a 60-70ish mile road ride
@@mikeytek I'll take that
Wow! You are awesome! 🎯🚴♀️💥Love how you asked Where's the Co-op - Audax riders' favourite stop! 🤣
Thank you!! Haha yes I was missing the co-op 😂😂
Well done, that's an impressive ride, you should be proud of yourself. Even had the energy for a bit of a victory dance.
Thank you so much, I shocked myself 😂
Well done for hanging on at that pace
Well done Amy I know how hard it is the first race I did was a 100 mile time trial when I was 14 in 4 hours 48 mins I was very proud of that 👍
That’s awesome!!
Complimenti sei fortissima! brava brava 👏
Wow! That is pretty hardcore!! Well done, what a strong ride.
Thank you! Defo helped along by the group 😅
Strong 🚴🏼♂️👍ride safe
Wow great ride Amy great guns 💪

Well done Amy, you made that ride look easy 👌👌 🚴♀️🚴♀️
Thank you Mark, thanks for watching ☺️
Hi. I just ran across your channel. I enjoy cycling, and am likely at least as old as your dad. I like to see enthusiasm, and you have that. Oh, and you are faster than I am. I look forward to seeing your adventures.
Ah thank you! Enjoy your rides!
Wow! I'm genuinely impressed with you! Great stats near the end - 24 QOMs!!
Thank you!!
Facts that you can sit at the back of the peloton and not deep inside of it and still hang on is extremely good great work
Your a great cyclist! You did this average and filmed with your camera, wow! Keep riding, your video is inspiring and fun!
Ah thank you! I was defo helped along by the group!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏fantastic effort ..you should be very proud of yourself all the best from the highlands of Scotland 🏴🏴👍
Thank you!! LOVE the highlands I’ve done NC500 twice (before I started CZcams) defo want to return it’s beautiful
@@amy.cycling.adventures yeah yer right it is stunning am prob biased being Scottish from fort William we’ve got the Ben mountain ( am sure you’d of done that ) and glencoe which is just majestic ….saying that you don’t have to contest with bloody midges on a daily basis ..keep up the good work yer a superb athlete with a great attitude to life 👏👏👏👏👍🏴
Congratulations, you’re amazing
Brilliant, well done.
Amazing, and I’m not kidding you made it look easy.
Under 5hours, Kyle really should have enough time to dry and put away the washing up 😂
Haha that’s what I thought! he was actually out on a ride with Nige and at the pub with him when I got home 😂
Incredible ride Amy
Doing it for the girlies !!!
PBP gonna be a breeze😂😂
Thanks Steve! Can’t wait for PBP 🙌
The super powers of a super randonneur,great ride!
Absolutely awesome ❤️
Thank you 🫶
Good training for your Crit race on the 23rd
Well done Amy stay safe 🎉
Yes haha! Although I much prefer a long ride to a crit 😂 all about taking part though 🙌☺️
Amy your doing great just believe in yourself a little more ❤
Thank you Paul ☺️
Damn, I don’t write a lot of comments on CZcams videos, though for some reason this short video gives such a positive feeling, I rode my bike this morning and couldn’t stop thinking on your positive vibe!
Nicely done :)
Ah thank you!! Hope you enjoyed your ride 🙌
Malt Loaf when cycling is so underrated
Amazing ride . I couldn't do that . Your so funny and gorjus too 🎉
wow thats crazy how close the cars are!! im here in the usa we never ride like that be safe!!
Great vid Amy 😀 - just rejoined my local Cycling Club after a break of 29 years !! [other sports and distractions..] - nowhere near cycling fit yet but hopefully get there before I do the 200 mile Chase the Sun ride next year.
Would highly recommend doing the filming with the INSTA360 X3.
Thanks so much for watching! Massive good luck for that I did it last year and loved it!! Oh thanks I’ll take a look ☺️
@@amy.cycling.adventures Just bought a pair of Sungod glasses - not cheap but soo cool...you are a great ambassador Amy - not only for the glasses but also for womens cycling !
Rejoined Yeovil Cycling Club a month ago....and loving it...a few strong women riders there one who easily dropped me....I have much work to do to get back my Triathalon/Cycling fitness but I will get there 😀
Also I will have no excuse in six weeks as I have just spent 4.5k on a new custom bike that is just being assembled by a local guy [Redchilli Bikes] 😮
Wish me luck on rediscovering the joys [and pains] of cycling.
Love to cycle up in the Peak District sometime.
Made it look easy!! Well done.
Thank you! ☺️
Totally, brilliant!
So impressive! I wonder if I could have held on for dear life on a ride like that - excellent effort!
Thank you! Defo helped along by the group!
We’ll done Flippin brilliant your a beast I’ve never even ridden 100 miles!! Your an inspiration for all
us women 🎉🎉😅
Thanks Linda 🤍 enjoy your rides!!
Thank you I will 😀👍
Great ride! Nice video!
I should've added "Great job Amy !"
May I ask how much youth you're blessed with ?
Youth helps !
Ah thanks so much! I’m actually 27 not as young as I look 😂😅
You're awesome Amy
Awesome Amy😎🤜🏼🤛🏼
Waaaaay farther and faster than most of us (both boys and girls)! Bloomin’ ‘eck.
You GO girl!!👍💪🫀😋
Well done - awesome!
Thank you!
I love that when you are like yippee 😂… another great video !
That’s super impressive well done 👏
Thank you!
Well done - that was FAST 😁 "I am only filming because we are at a junction" love it and you did well to organise those cows 😉
Haha thank you!! 🙌
Excellent. You’re out there representing. That’s all that matters. More Nige. More Kyle
Outstanding young lady 👌🏻👏🏻👌🏻👏🏻👌🏻
Have to say, when I rode 1985-1990 there was one or two women ever on a training run. The A6 is a haven.
What to note.. never train on your race bike, have a training bike for training, you choose what you like, raleigh, vitus 979, colnago 753 (no carbon) 42 x 19 fixed, mudguards, dynamo. Ride early to work and home from work to get the miles in. Well done.
Speedy riding Amy apparently you are stronger than you give yourself credit for mate; I will check out your strava #s later.
Cafe stops are good fun, and you want to have some of that to keep in enjoyable too. Yippee and TTFN
Thank you for watching! Yes agree gotta have the cafe stops, they’re my motivation 🙌😂
Blooming heck . Great vid❤
Thank you!!
@amy.cycling.adventures I've had my day off work today and found myself streaming all your videos to thr TV to lay on the couch and watch . Amazing content and very entertaining, encouraging and good for the mind ! Congratulations on all your followers Blooming eck who would have thought you would have so many.
#justkeepcycling.
Get up north sometime some lovely coastal and scenic rides.
@@paulheath7085 ah glad you like the videos thanks so much for watching! Enjoy your cycling ☺️
That's AWESOME!
Excellent. My basic advice to all serious or semi serious cyclists is to get yourself a power meter. It's the best way to monitor your progress over time. Using speed is dependent on so many factors like terrain, weather and group dynamics. You may ride into a headwind at 12mph but perform better than riding a tailwind at 20mph. They seem expensive but will help you no end.
I do really need to get a power meter! I’ve been looking for one they’re crazy expensive!
@@amy.cycling.adventures Yes but they hold their value quite well. I purchased one in 2018 for £400, sold it in 2023 for £200. Works out to be £44 a year which is 10 of your hot chocolates. Worth a yippee?
Woohoo! Very proud of you!
Well done in under 5. Group rides are the best with brief coffee or chai stops. ;-)
Brilliant, I did 5:14 for the 100 & thought that was good ,I'm humbled in your presence Amy
That’s awesome!! Thanks I was defo helped along by the group!
@@amy.cycling.adventures Look forward to more of your vids & subbed
@@willmcallister8464 thanks so much!!
Well done, bet you'll sleep well after that. This was definitely a big boost in your confidence.
I did sleep like a baby 😂 yes it was ☺️ thanks for watching!
