Love that you enjoyed the Solar System path so much. One of my local paths.

[@RobBob_Wales]

That’s a cracking video . Very nice to watch your videos Josh . Keep peddling

[@frida12349]

2025..Tour Divide..let's take things up a notch Josh..✌️

[@TheCoopsvids]

Well done Josh great to see you back looking fwd to the next adventure..Atb Coops 🚴👍🏻

[@alethearobinson8132]

Splendid video. That rainbow was stunning. And a trip through the solar system. Brilliant👍. And it wouldn't be a proper Josh ride without some 🌧. As usual your music choice and narration and drone footage made for an excellent video experience. Thank you. Cheers. 🐄🐄🐄🐄😊🚴‍♀️

[@LancashireLarks]

Uranias 😂 we never grow up. Even I sniggered 😂

[@tzrrsdave]

I was mtbing in Thetford forest in the late 80s and I still drive down and park at the end of the runway at llakenheath and ride Thetford forest and it makes me so happy riding places I've ridden over 40 years ago

[@reecedawson6113]

I remember that cycle path in York from an Audax I did back in march from Lyndhurst to York but now I'm living up in Lancashire I'm having to get used to the lumpy up here rather than the flat plains of the new forest

[@AdamWebb1982]

I watched it (comment for engagement). One day I’ll get fit and do something like this myself.

[@eflip5869]

Great to see you back on your adventures. "Time flies when your dehydrated!" 😂😂

[@MrUtahrob]

It's great to see you back on your bike and enjoying the beauty of the UK. We love your socks! Your friends, Rob and Gary in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA

[@thorley1969]

The cows at 50:00 are on one of my regular trails. A few miles before that you should have also gone through a field of white long horn cattle. A bit intimidating but they're harmless really.

[@ingtoningtonington149]

Thoroughly enjoyed this, Josh. 2, 100 mile days off road. Amazing!! Nice to see Castle Acre, a lovely village where I've holidayed. Great filming when the weather permitted. Thanks for all you do for the humble bicycle and all it can represent.

[@jhscotty]

the animals are so innocent and beautiful

[@alanhill618]

Well done josh great to see you back on your bike and more superb adventures thetford forest looks great must get up there and ride

[@dalj4362]

Great stuff mate, Uranus 😂. I needed this to chill out after watching that stressful England game .😂 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@DavidMackenzie]

Great video. They just get better and better! And good to see you riding on paths I've cycled along too. You inspired me to get out there and ride them!

[@mi.gravel]

There’s a solar system trail on the Pere Marquette Rail Trail in Michigan, USA. I had to take a selfie by the Uranus model 😂

[@Brettski777]

If you were on the Market Weighton to Bubwith rail trail, then you were five minutes from my house . All the best from the East Riding .

[@tzrrsdave]

Did a bit off peddars way last week, I was hoping to bump into you that would of made my day, no e in kings Lynn, just bought a dog trailer and I hope he likes it then I don't have to rush home if I take the dog

[@kennyness8881]

I’d put some 2” to 2.3” semi-slick or touring tires on that Bombtrack, and pick it almost every time. Thanks for another good video.

[@KeepSmilingAdventures]

That would lower the BB too much, it's designed for 3 inch tyres. It has 2.6 currently, which works well for the rougher trips I would normally use this bike on.

[@dale-qz9dg]

Uranus, always funny

[@bakhan033]

Enjoyed both parts of this Capital Divide a lot. I like the slow, almost dreamy report of the trip (not referring to your cycling speed 😉). I was wondering, since you keep cycling until you find the right spot to camp, when and where do you eat your evening dinner (beside the given sandwich)? Also, where do you look for when searching for the right camp spot? Thank you.

[@paulcomptonpdphotography]

I have just signed up for doing a 200 mile 4 day bike ride, more than i have ever done... so how do you plan your route maybe a how to video? and maybe how you film your trips what camera and mounts

[@samuelmorley3275]

Do you do any cooking when you bikepack or just get food in shops? I have t seen you cooking in your videos

[@andrewtwigg]

Great video thanks! Debating between this route or second city divide. I’m from London so thinking this one would avoid the train back. Beginner bike packer but comfortable doing big miles. Would you recommend one over the other?
