Really great video and very interesting to watch. I have never been to Prague and I had no idea there were so many fun and interesting things to do and see. Made me really want to go there. Thank you 😊

No one likes Toulouse!

Great video

Warum schaut er aus wie Tomatolix?

In those tunnels, drop an activated road flare at the entrance, people may heed the accedent ahead warning. 🤷🏼‍♂️ 🚴🏼🚴🏼🚴🏼

Lundi is the Old Norse word for Puffin.

One of the best bits of bikepacking is the setup, which is distinctly different from traditional touring. In bikepacking, gear is packed in lightweight, compact bags that attach directly to the bike frame, handlebars, and saddle, allowing for better balance, stability, and maneuverability on rough or remote terrain. Unlike traditional touring setups, which often rely on bulky panniers and racks, bikepacking setups are designed to minimize weight and drag, making it easier to tackle off-road trails, steep climbs, and technical sections. This streamlined approach not only allows for greater freedom and adaptability but also makes it easier to explore hard-to-reach places and experience a more immersive, adventurous ride.

great

Amazing memories. Cycle touring is just the best way to travel, especially for all the reasons you mentioned. We will bloody do a ride sometime I promise!!! 2025 🎉

Lovely and joyful video 🙂 And I was totally surprised that you mentioned me together with some of the people you have met. Really appreciated 🙂 And you were the perfect guest. I don't think I will bikepack, but I absolutely enjoy your videos about your adventures.

Really professional and enjoyable, makes me want to make the same trip! Thank you

to fight off midges I use a cap with a net, long sleeves and long baggy trousers. you can cycle in the rain all day wearing a poncho, rain pants and overshoes for motorcycling. rain jackets will get you wet after a while in heavy rain, a poncho won't.

Really good no bs 👌

Eh, after a certain age, even if you're still bikepacking, the junk food will catch up to you. It has nothing to do with your weight, has everything to do with your digestive system and endocrine system.

QUestion to all bikers who wear these cycling pants the whole day: HOW?! It's the most uncomfortable thing Ive ever worn. My balls feel like they're in prison and I'm sweating down there like crazy. Are my pants trash or is it just like that? Because if so, I reither choose the pain

All this struggles make bikepacking great. Yeah it sucks to be in this situations sometimes, but at the end of the day it's what makes the trips special. Great video mate dropped you a sub

Really enjoyed this! Subscribed and ready for more!

Ever thought about using a priority bike with the belt drive system. Seems to be up your alley

When there is heavy rain or killer wind l call instant rest day or days. Bizarre time expectations people put on daily rides astounds me it’s not a race slow down and enjoy the experience. A flannel and running tap at a cafe is the best shower or a collapsible bucket and locked toilet stall. My biggest fear was not highways and trying to avoid them.

A face cloth and water 1/2 L clean up is something that sould be done daily and you will not stink put out a towel on your sleeping bag in your tend and clean all up every day or before bed would be better

For number 2's its either find a pub or toilet. Or dig a deep hole, drop and cover. Who cares about a shower for 2 / 3 days.

This made me chuckle throughout. Very relatable. I have slept in graveyards, a pigsty even someone's garden (they didn't know)😂 The joys of bikepacking. Great video. Your LEJOG which I really enjoyed too has inspired me to do the same. I have a 1517mile route to do next May aged 58😂 I am sure I will experience most of the contents of this video.😂

Anyone that asks how you "use the bathroom" on a bike packing trip is clearly a complete idiot. You use toilets when they're available and go behind a bush when they're not.... Rocket science.... Do bears sh*t in the woods? Yup. Us too.... ;)

What handlebars are you using on your bike? What tent are you using that you can get your bike into?

1:20 Baby wipes About every 10 days or so, I'll buy a shower at a truck stop(U.S.) & do my laundry at a laundromat. 3:05 free hot spa at Pagosa Springs, CO😊 4:08 I only rough/stealth camp. I can never bring myself to pay for camping. 7:17 I've never had a problem with mosquitoes or gnats. I don't have a reaction. The black biting flies within a 50 mile radius of Dodge City, KS was horrible though. I had to use bug spray. 9:30 I can't count how many heated discussions I've had with the wind. Twice I visited with the elusive downhill tailwind. 17:45 as long as the sign is facing you, you're good to go. 20:52 I switched from 175mm to 170mm cranks. My knees thanked me. Thanks for the video👍

Thanks. And yes very true. That toilet I slept in was in a church yard. It's the forests on windy days that I find most scary

Great video as always, cycle touring has that bit of unpredictability which makes it exciting. A few times I've had the option of camping on the edge of a graveyard but chickened out, a bit too spooky.

Thanks for posting this video upon my request. Really appreciate it. I've only done solo bike tours where they take your luggage to the next hotel and your job is to ride to the next hotel that day. Not sure I'm cut out for bikepacking...

Very useful and also entertaining video from an experienced bikepacker 🙂 I kind of expected the clips from the overnight stays in the loo and under the camping table 😂 The dogs were scary 😱 But it seems that you got away without getting harmed. Thank you for sharing this video and all the lovely views and great tips 😊

10:10 min. NEVER bring a smouldering log or ashes/ disposable bbq into your tent. You will go to sleep and never wake up.

On the Lykaveto Hill many famous people have walked as well! Pericles, Socrates... Insane to think about this.

Beautiful video. My daughter and I will travel to Oman in February. May I ask you how you organized and with whom the trip in the desert?

Grateful you made this very informative & professional video both for our hotel & surrounding region 🧿🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thank you !

Wow that village! Incredible. Definitely not sitting around with pina coladas, as to be expected , great exploring, great video!!

Brilliant video as always, loved the music in this one! 👏👏😊👍

Loved this … what drone did you use ?

Definitely looks like a good place to holiday. The village has grown since our visit over 30 years ago. Yes I remember that church. Amazing sunsets.

Saw you in my Joliman catalogue wearing a lovely bath robe 😄

To all of our Faroese friends…. I’m thinking of visiting a place that has polar day/midnight sun and The Faroe Islands speak to me. It seems like late May to late July are the months of Polar Day there in the FI. Does that suggest that right in the middle of this time is the point of the highest sun position in the sky? Is the July 10th time frame still very sunny or is the sun very low at this point? In this video… it’s SO GREEN! I read that this was in May… is it still this that green in July?

... 8:48 PM (4:15), 08:51 PM (4:45) the Petrol Station and how its a still bright (day) light! and The Sun is high! When The Sun sets down and getting dark (night) over there in Oman?

The train ride from sorrento to Naples is horrendous 😂

Hi, when did you visit Athens please? I’m wondering if February is a good month to go (beginning of the month) and if the weather is nice enough to walk around comfortably?

No one ever mentions it but how do you use the bathroom and shower?

Hi Phil, we absolutely loved this epic episode! What an adventure! Congratulations on your journey and for your amazing channel 👏👏👍😊

I really enjoyed this video thank you; I’ve just booked to go there at the end of April next year and am excited! What was the Facebook group you were a part of?

I did the CW in instalments, both ways 2009 -2010.. I preferred the northern half. Too much woodland walking on the southern half for my liking. Nothing wrong with woodland, but when walking across hills I want to see views

Hi there, which month did you go? planning on going beginning of January 2025 😊

Your lady picks up the vibes. Seances never result in anything good.

Such a great video! I'm moving to Brighton in the next few months and this was so good to see - it's totally reinforced my decision to be there, thank you for creating it and sharing it with the world.

Great videos defo on my bucket list . What type of drone do use
