It's an absolute pleasure to see you in Kyrgyzstan Dean. All those hours you put in filming wild camps and bivvies in the Peak District, running and capturing the Pennine Way have finally paid off and you've got the job you deserve. While the position may be a privilige, it's one that was well and truly earned. You deserve to enjoy the rewards now. Keep it up and keep smiling mate.

Thanks for this, brilliant videos and gave us lots of advice and ideas when holidaying in the Peak District with our bikes. Just a shame that the day we decided to take the High Peak trail it decided to rain as we started unloading our bikes and it was a biting cold wind despite the forecast showing bright sunshine and 23C for the day. I wanted to fly my drone for a sneaky look at the ancient burial mound in the trees and the Engine House at Middleton Top but the weather put paid to that idea sadly. C’est la vie ……. Maybe we will get the opportunity to holiday up there again and try the Tissington Trail and others but thanks for giving a couple of oldies the inspiration to get our arses back on the saddle!

Hi John, thanks for watching, sharing and for your kind words. This was a truly memorable night and I often think about it. It does seem like such a long time ago now, my life has changed massively, for the better I’m pleased to say. So much so I don’t feel I need as much escapism as I craved back then, very content being with family, having adventures with them and with work. I’ve got 5 or 6 videos to edit at the moment from the past 12 months, it’s got a bit out of hand 😂 All the best and please do set a date to go for a camp wild camp 🤞 Dean
