Cheers Dave, glad you enjoyed it 👍

Ha ha, will have to contest some conkers from other counties next year!! 👍

Hi Rich, glad you enjoyed it and that it was of some inspiration. Definitely worth getting a nice tarp and bivvy camp in during these glorious Autumn months, it's the most wonderful time of the year to be getting out 👍

Cheers Tim, appreciate the comment. Really pleased with the bike so far 👍

@@barneysbimbles Makes me want to dig my MTB back out 😊 Meant to say, that fungi is from the polypore family I think. It looks the same as the one I saw at Operation Jackdaw. It causes white rot in a lot of broad leaf trees like beech etc.

Cheers Jimmy, glad you enjoyed it. The rack is awesome, search 'Jack the Bike Rack' on Google or you can find it here for sale from a UK retailer: www.singletrackbikes.co.uk/m11b803s491p109091/Jack_The_Bike_Rack_Front_Rack_/Pannier_Racks/RS_GB/250823?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwpbi4BhByEiwAMC8JnZWSmdRmoSA_6diiG2vGwYuuHFVTbcOjnUaYuV_49YC0jNr33EX2ehoCMl8QAvD_BwE

Cheers John, couldn't believe how big that fungi was! 👍

Cheers John, Norfolk skyscapes are quite something to behold 👍

Cheers Lee, I can heartily recommend that you get your bike out for an adventure, even if it's just for a pork pie and a brew! 👍

Hi Dan, thanks for stopping by, really glad you enjoyed the video. I've been enjoying the 8x8 tarp quite a bit since posting this video and agree that it's just the right size for one person 👍

This one is the smaller Bushbox LF, but I think it's still a pretty decent size 👍

Oh sorry I thought it was the XL. They’re so well made.

Cheers matey 👍

Hi Amanda, yeah really quite impressed with Jack the rack, glad I bought it. The M34 lid came from a guy on Instagram called Pete Berwick. He doesn't sell them, just makes them in his spare time and is sometimes up for a swap 👍

@@barneysbimbles Ha! I am currently using the Des Cattys beer can method, but yours is a thing of beauty! Clearly I will have to try and find something to swap/barter…! 😂😉

Cheers Lee, hope you're well 👍

@barneysbimbles Yeah, not bad thanks, Barn

Cheers Rich, yeah shorties are pretty underrated in the biscuit world! 👍

Cheers matey, glad you enjoyed it. In my mind a brew stop is mandatory when out on a ride. Hope you get out soon 👍

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it 👍

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it 👍

Cheers Dean, it was a pleasure to catch up as always 👍

A car definitely makes life more comfortable and enables you to get to some lovely campsites like this. But in all honesty, it's still more rewarding to get about under your own steam 👍

Yeah really sorry about that. A special American edition of cookies and brews will be coming next time though! 👍

@@barneysbimbles that’ll be great. Look forward to the aficionado’s hot take on the subject.

Cheers Tim, t'was a pleasure as always. Sorry about the snoring! 👍

Cheers Lee, hope you're well. I can thoroughly recommend a visit to the campsite. I shall definitely be returning 👍

Cheers matey, shame you couldn't make it 👍

Hi Tony, that is the Pocket Stove which was being made by Bob and Rose at BackpackingLight.co.uk (was also available at Ray Mears site). Bob and Rose retired a few months ago. The website was taken over by Valley and Peak, but unfortunately the stove appears to have been discontinued. It's a great shame because it's an awesome little stove. 👍

That's precisely why I do it. It calms the otherwise chaotic mind 👍

Ha ha cheers 👍

Cheers Rich, I think it might have been one of the best campsites that I've been to, definitely going back. As for the biscuits, I had good intentions of filming one but alas time got the better of me! I'm out twice this month though so there will be another instalment very soon! 👍

You just can't get enough of the ol' dangle sack Lee! 👍

@barneysbimbles No mate, I love it so much...

Hi Roo, thanks for checking out the channel and commenting. I've used the Dutch hooped bivvy a lot since that BCUK post in 2020 and still absolutely love it. It's a great bit of kit. I haven't actually used it since this Dartmoor video so I'll have to get it out again over the coming months. Personally I think this and the standard British army goretex are the two best bivvies on the market. 👍

Cheers Ben, hope you're well. Glad you enjoyed it. If you have yet to experience a chocolate malted milk then you must get some in your life, you won't regret it 👍

😂 Absolutely 👍

Cheers Dave, yep I've over-dunked and lost many a nice biscuit in my brew. You're living life on the edge with every dunk! Good shout with the Jammie Dodgers too, another underrated biccy 👍

Ha ha, glad you enjoyed the setup. The Brommy can seem like a bit of a clown bike, but it's a great bit of kit and really well made. Not so good on the off road trails in the wetter months though, but then again it has no right to even be going off road! Those stuff sack pillows are great aren't they, I honestly don't know why more people aren't using them instead of the inflatable pillows that seem to fail so often! Many thanks for checking out the video and commenting, it's much appreciated 👍

Thanks Craig, glad you enjoyed it. Yeah so happy to be looking forward to some cooler, Autumnal camps. All the best 👍

😂

Thanks for checking out the video,, glad you enjoyed it 👍

Cheers Tim, funnily enough I did think about you and Lee while I supped on that pint (not in that kind of way!!). Nice biscuits are definitely two quick dunks and you're golden. Good shout with the Garibaldi's, I love them but am not convinced that they're good for dunking. 👍

@@barneysbimbles Hahaha 🤣 Re: Garibaldi, not great for dunking but do taste good when dunked in tea. JMHO 😊 I bet Brommie was devastated you left it behind 😩

Cheers John, I'll be encouraging you to bring some biccies along to our next camp!! 👍

I won't need much encouragement lol 😋😂😂

Cheers John, glad you enjoyed it 👍

Cheers matey, I was looking at the Decathlon bags, they look like good quality and value. Hope you're able to get out soon 👍 Pairing biscuits with brews would be interesting and add another tier of complexity to the review. I'd probably have to start with Darjeeling!! 😂👍

Yeah the decathlon ones are good and sturdy too. Cant wait to get a chance to get out, it’s always nice weather when I’m bloody working ! 🤦🏻‍♂️ Definitely Darjeeling to start 😂

Thanks Amanda, really appreciate the comment. I am indeed looking at the Jack rack, they look ideal, could be a payday treat! There's a British creator on Instagram who makes something very similar (check out Spice rack racks). I've thought about panniers too or just a rack with a dry bag strapped to the top. Lots of options. But for the time being I'm probably going to stick with the saddle bag and go with a more minimalist approach as I weirdly kind of like the wild camping challenge that it presents! As for the Malted Milks. Yeah the standard MMs are excellent too, I could also very easily make a pack of them disappear!! 👍

Cheers matey, strangely looking forward to filming that dunking episode! 👍

Thanks glad you enjoyed it. It's not a bad spot, looks nice on camera but is otherwise quite stoney on the ground and not especially flat! 👍

Cheers Jimmy, yeah I'm thinking of getting a rack, would make life easier wouldn't it. I didn't process all the fatwood down, but have brought a few of those branches home to process and add to the fire kit, it's good stuff. Thanks Jimmy for watching and commenting, much appreciated 👍

Cheers Kenneth, hope you're well 👍

Nah, I'm sure it'll be fine for a night. It'll be washed and oiled up during the week though ready for the next adventure 👍

Thanks Ty, great comment. I'll definitely try to explain that in my next vid. In this segment, I guess these are more like what you'd call 'Cookies' because they're sweet. In the UK we have Crackers, but they're usually savoury and eaten with cheese. I need to also try your version of biscuits because they're very different and much closer to what we'd call a 'Scone' in the UK. I shall probably need to do them with gravy too for extra authenticity! 👍

@@barneysbimbles thanks!!!

Cheers Des, didn't realise you were out. I'm pleased with the bags, but some refinement is probably needed 👍

@barneysbimbles it'll take time but think of the fun you'll have
