100 km à vélo sans cuissard : Bonne ou mauvaise idée ?
Can you ride 100km on a gravel bike without cycling shorts on a Berthoud leather saddle? Corinne tested it for you during a recovery ride after our failed attempt at 400km. Today's objective: to see if a finally broken-in Berthoud Aravis leather saddle can truly replace cycling shorts on a long ride. On paper, the ride was supposed to be easy… But between Komoot's improbable trails, 35mm knobby tires, a thankfully minor fall, and several "Instant Crashes," this recovery ride ended up a little less easy than expected. Komoot clearly had other plans for us. 00:00 Introduction and today's challenge: 100 km without cycling shorts 01:06 Crossing Lusignan on the V94 01:35 Corine's secret: "butt-licking paste" 02:10 Review after 20 km and a nasty fall (Luckily, there's the helmet!) 03:30 First rocky paths 04:41 Murphy's Law on the road 05:45 Halfway point: 50 km without cycling shorts 06:05 Encounter with a grass snake 07:38 Struggle on flooded and muddy paths 09:27 Forced U-turn: Komoot's jokes 10:35 "Recovery" ride or exhaustion? 12:12 Verdict on the Berthoud saddle without cycling shorts 13:50 Conclusion and the importance of the helmet #gravel #Cycling #CuttingShortsFree #100km #berthoudsaddle #BikeAdventure #LesGravelidés Les Gravelidés YouTube channel - gravel and bikepacking without the pressure from Poitiers.
