Hi you guys, my type of adventure nice and laid back 😊

[@davesolobiker5601]

Thanks no rushing about on this one , too warm aswell lol

[@_Mountain_Dave]

just come across your channel this evening, like the relaxed style and good views - great trip looked a good craic 2 lads out on the bikes with a few bivies what more do you need! Have done the coast to coast along the wall many times, always prefer doing it the other way west to east though due to the wind/rain generally coming in. This looked a great route more to the south, as for the midge's i think last summer was the worst its ever been for them, was wick in certain parts. Safe travels.

Thanks , yeah we’re not into breaking any records, just take in the views stop for the odd pint and generally enjoy ourselves . Appreciate the comment atb Dave ⛺️🚲👍

[@RollingforwardsNOTTS]

Nice one. I probably won’t have time to do any touring until next year.

[@davesolobiker5601]

Thanks James, probably this was the last one of 23 for me too.

Love your trips, makes me homesick for UK cycling again, as an expat abroad myself! I will keep watching!

[@davesolobiker5601]

Thank you , sometimes I feel like escaping the UK but trips like these remind me why I stay 🚲⛺️👍 atb Dave

He you started your journey at my local station, nice ride buddy. Most of my trips are usually just going around the town (

[@davesolobiker5601]

Thanks , you have some decent cycle routes on your doorstep 🚲👍 atb Dave

[@sjwhitey4356]

good effort lads looked a cracking trip 👍

[@davesolobiker5601]

Yes it was a great trip atb Dave 🚲👍

[@markcowen9538]

Great stuff👍. Your making me feel lazy - I need to get back on the bike again (when it eventually stops raining)

[@davesolobiker5601]

Thanks for watching , hoping to be soon back out on the trail when the rain stops 😂

[@RidingHighCycling]

Great video. Really enjoyed it. Just wondered what gearing you have on your bike (given the weight of stuff you have to carry)? Also, have you ever had any issues getting on trains with your bike, any tips about using the trains? Cheers

[@davesolobiker5601]

The rear cog has a 36 tooth and the small front one is 32 tooth , these were 28 and 36 last year and I struggled on some of the hills , this seems a better set up . Most of the train companies have there own policies , trans pennine and avanti need to be booked on !! Northern is just get on if room , so far I have had no issues. If you using avanti I always have a crack with station staff and guard onboard as this door needs opened by staff only !! TP is accessed via normal doors as is northern 🚂👍

[@RidingHighCycling]

Great stuff. Thanks for the info. Much appreciated 👍

[@jimbojet8728]

2 minutes to put up a tarp fellas . Especially with you both sharing the task. It would keep the dew off you and make you feel more comfortable. Never mind though, a good vid. Thanks.

[@davesolobiker5601]

Yeah some nights we did but on others too lazy 😂 tfw atb Dave
