Ride along with Rider-Up co-host John Carlin on his evening road bike ride between the 6 pm and 11 pm newscasts.  Great dinner break right?  This is an edited stream of consciousness as John cruises through downtown Roanoke to the Roanoke River Greenway.  Along the way, he evaluates his new Roval C-38 wheels, chokes down a few gnats along the river, races a bat for a hundred yards, and talks about how these rides enhance the viewer experience for the 11 pm news on WSLS-10!

We've edited out all the slower parts, (as if that's possible!) to give you the highlights of John's ride and his thoughts on an evening in April 2023.
