@ssamulczyk @cycling @rower audax and ultra racers everywhere are thinking..."yes...and?"
:)
Riding through the night and seeing the sun come up is best ☀️

@vorsprung The only races I care about I can watch on TV…🤣 I joined the cycling community late and even tried racing (I even qualified and went to Road World Championship in Italy, masters category) but never stood a chance with anyone…🤷🏻‍♂️

I ride for my own fun!🙈

@ssamulczyk @cycling @rower Audax (as it is called here in the UK) or Randonneur is the fun version of ultra racing. Take a look at Paris-Brest-Paris!

@vorsprung Well, my audax is around the family of 5 (kids are age 7, 5 and 1…🤣)… I guess 1/3 of the time I spend on cycling is at night and it usualy means I take all the „spare” time I can to squeeze a bike ride in… @cycling @rower

@vorsprung When my dear wife allows I can have fun, though. I’ve been at Eroica twice. First was the classic one, second a modern gravel adventure in 44°C!

I’m planning to do all sorts of “audaxy” things when the kids are more self-sufficient…🤷🏻‍♂️

@ssamulczyk @cycling @rower early morning rides in the summer are the absolute best. even better if you start while it's still dark!

@wav3ydave I absolutely cherish those moments but with a family of 5 it’s very difficult to get up and even find time. Especially when you’re already losing sleep time cycling at night…😂
