Day 5 of the Tiny Bike Tour 2 and it did not disappoint. A few rolling repairs we started to make some real ground.
The views were well worth the pain of the hills
We were tarp camping in bad weather as well as riding in heavy rain which took it till on the bikes
We are doing a 1000 mile loop of the South Coast on 54 year old 2 stroke mopeds. Moped touring is a real challenge but definitely worth it as you get to absorb the views at 30 mph.
The bikes we chose for this adventure were a 1970 Puch Maxi and a 1970 BSA Ariel 3.
Motocamping at it's finest. Along the way we will be wild camping as much as possible as well as making the most of strangers hospitality.
This is all to raise some funds for Combat Stress which is a veterans mental health charity so please consider donating.

What a bloody brilliant adventure. When I did my trip around Great Britain I rode dual carriageways to get the miles in. I’m wanting to do another long trip now.

She Sells Sanctuary what a classic. Wish you'd contacted me when you were without a tarp in Taunton, Ant the Jinx lives a couple of miles up the road, the bloke with more camping gear than Millets would have lent you a tarp.

[@leslieaustin151]

I used to live near Lynton/Lynmouth. Anyone who attempts those N. Devon hills on a weird (British!) moped is either a hero or completely daft. Fill in and underline where applicable. Not sure what the BSA designers were on the day that designed that thing! Perhaps you should have tried Beggars Roost on Wendy. Or perhaps not.. keep pedalling you two. Watching and laughing here!

I'm not a hero pmsl
