Adrian McEwen<p>Thankfully there was plenty of better footage to go into this <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/RideToTheSun" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>RideToTheSun</span></a> 2024 compilation video.</p><p>11 hours, and 100 miles, condensed to 18 minutes, featuring lots of cyclists, a piper, a cycle rave, Edinburgh and the sunrise over the Firth of Forth</p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/ghTxj1oHVjo" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtu.be/ghTxj1oHVjo</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BikeTooter</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/InTheSaddle" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>InTheSaddle</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/FolkRidingBikes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FolkRidingBikes</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Edinburgh" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Edinburgh</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Moffat" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Moffat</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/rave" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>rave</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/piper" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>piper</span></a></p>
Adrian McEwen<p>I&#39;m not saying some of the route was rough (actually, I am, some sections of it were atrocious! 😞) but the image stabilisation on the <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/GoPro" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GoPro</span></a> had an &quot;interesting&quot; time of it.</p><p>(Yes, I&#39;m still editing down footage)</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BikeTooter</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/RideToTheSun" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>RideToTheSun</span></a></p>
Adrian McEwen<p>One downside of doing a 100 mile ride rather than (well, actually in addition to...) the usual 15-20 mile one is that you end up with a similarly inflated amount of video to edit afterwards.</p><p>Currently waiting for 34GB of video to transfer from my <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Insta360OneRS" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Insta360OneRS</span></a> to my laptop so I can start on that 😀 </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BikeTooter</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/RideToTheSun" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>RideToTheSun</span></a></p>
Adrian McEwen<p>We made it. 100 miles, overnight, to Cramond just north of Edinburgh. </p><p>(we&#39;ve been here a few hours now.

Adrian McEwen<p>All aboard! Bikes packed on the trailer here in Liverpool. Next stop Carlisle for the start of the <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/RideToTheSun" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>RideToTheSun</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Liverpool" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Liverpool</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BikeTooter</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/FolkRidingBikes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FolkRidingBikes</span></a></p>
Adrian McEwen<p>Just happened upon this old blog post <a href="http://www.mcqn.net/mcfilter/archives/torino/here_today_gone_tomorrow.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">http://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">mcqn.net/mcfilter/archives/tor</span><span class="invisible">ino/here_today_gone_tomorrow.html</span></a> which starts with &quot;Well, the mammoth bike tour is over&quot;</p><p>That was ~200 miles of cycle touring spread over almost two weeks round Italy, which was awesome.</p><p>However, tomorrow a bunch of us will be heading up to Carlisle and then riding 100 miles to Edinburgh in *a single night*</p><p>Admittedly I won&#39;t have ~30kg of tent on the back of the bike, but I think it&#39;s some sort of fitness progress 😀 </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BikeTooter</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/RideToTheSun" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>RideToTheSun</span></a></p>
