How I went from 10 km commute to 300 km adventure by bike

I've been bike commuting for years, but I've always dreamed of taking on a longer bike adventure. Here's what I learned along the way. Shifter Memberships are here!

They support this channel, so please support them. They also make amazing products that I use every day and endorse without hesitation. I’ve been riding Priority bikes for a number of years. I love their low-maintenance, belt-drive design, and they offer good quality at a decent price. They signed on as a sponsor for my YouTube channel several years after I started riding them. Here's the Priority Gemini Smart.Shift Gravel Bike I'm riding in this video: https://alnk.to/8iWtJUN My daily summertime bike is the zippy and fun Priority Eight: https://alnk.to/1XWoxFO Abus Bike Locks. If you’re riding in a city, you need a good-quality bike lock, and you can’t do much better than Abus and their diverse lineup of locks: https://www.abus.com/ My book Frostbike: The Joy, Pain and Numbness of Winter Cycling: https://amzn.to/42EBzO6 Here is some of the gear I’m currently using. Some of these are affiliate links. Bike Lights: I love dynamo lights that are built into a bike and powered by your pedalling or the wheel’s movement, but if you need aftermarket lights, Lumos offers a number of great options. Their Firefly lights are simple and bright: https://collabs.shop/3uodbz Helmet: If I’m riding for sports, such as mountain biking or road bike, I like Lumos helmets because they are comfortable and well-built, and you can also easily attach lights to stay as visible as possible on roads: https://collabs.shop/prkigy Bell: I love the sound and quality of the Japanese-made Crane Bells: https://www.cranebellusa.com/ Saddle: Yes, they can be pricey, but I’ve joined the ranks of people who think the extra cost for the quality of a Brooks Saddle is worth it, in both durability and comfort: https://www.brooksengland.com/ Panniers: My everyday workhorse pannier is Two Wheel Gear’s Pannier Backpack Convertible 2.0: https://twowheelgear.com/collections/... Pedals: I’ve not experienced high-performance pedals adding much extra value to my daily riding experience, but these light-up pedals from Redshift are bright, keep me visible at night and grab lots of attention: https://redshiftsports.com?aff=40 Phone mount: I use Peak Design’s mobile system, including the Universal Bar Mount on my handlebars every day, which I also bring it with me when I travel for bike rentals and bike-share bicycles: https://peak-design.pxf.io/c/5749368/... Buff: Keeps your face, neck and head warm in the winter, and keeps the sun off in the summer: https://peak-design.pxf.io/c/5749368/... Sunglasses: If you’re going to wear sunglasses, why not use a pair that has built-in mirrors so you can see behind you while you ride?: https://collabs.shop/f9hvof Don’t forget to register your bike with an online database. My favourite is 529 Garage https://project529.com/garage Bike Index is also good: https://bikeindex.org/ Follow me!
