360 Miles in 36 Hours vs. Reality | Headwind, Mechanicals & A Stranger

I set out to ride 360 miles around Norfolk in under 36 hours. It sounded simple enough on paper… but rides like this rarely go to plan. What followed was a brutal headwind, two mechanicals and even a lift from a stranger driving a coach just to keep the ride alive. In the end I managed 290 miles and completed three of the four legs of the route — but the experience was a powerful reminder of what ultra-distance cycling really feels like. Sometimes the reality of a ride is very different from the plan. If you enjoy honest cycling stories, challenges, and long-distance rides, consider subscribing for more videos like this.
