Well done! It's nice to see that these islands still have wild areas where you can camp out and have an adventure. You certainly packed a lot of it into your trip, with little time for loafing about. Sounds like you put in a few long, hot, cold, wet, and dry days, not to mention windy. Thanks for producing such a lovely film for us to enjoy.

Really enjoyed this video Tom, it was especially interesting to see you cycle GC as I’ve cycled there a lot (on the road) and loved it. It’s tough terrain on the road with a light bike 😂… so I understood the enormity of your challenge, which definitely came across ~ chapeau for completing! I loved the filming details and drone footage. Keep up the great work 😊

Excellent photography. Only left the UK mainland once, went to Arran. Was gonna go up Goat fell and camp but couldnt as fog at ground level, so had to walk to the campsite some distance away as no camping signs everywhere. Arrived after dark soaking and hungry; the woman at the campsite was hostile and wouldnt sell any food so didn't bother again as a misherable experience. My first and last time leaving the mainland.

Thank you for your videos. For me is a joy to watch. I will go to Gran Canaria in February to do 4 days of cycling and i hope the weather will be nice. When did you film this video and for cycling route planner what do you use? i usually use komoot.

[@paulfairclough9350]

What a stunning adventure, breathtaking scenery but your next job is to get a stylist, brown shoes and mustard coloured socks, you look like a geography teacher on a school trip 😉😉 only joking, not meant to offend 😊😊

Enjoyed video but see later comments. Only been 2 med type holidays, Malta & Gran Canaria in 1988. In beach wear we got a coach trip up the mountain. Up top it was foggy and freezing. Local market peeps wearing heavy woolen ponchos. Soup in tavern didn't stop me shivering. Amazing to see the cave dwellings on the way down. You mentioned in your first 2025 video about film festivals so here's my amateur opinions that I think would've made a good video into a great video: The music is nice but too soporific and dreary. How about some dramatic music eg when bombing down a hill or when something goes wrong? Something exciting when approaching a new destination? I would like to see more factual stuff eg show us what food you took and how much water. Tell us mileages to do or done. I'd love to see even hand drawn routes especially when you have to re-route. Would the police not oblige a snap maybe even their car if not a foot patrol? How much did things cost? Toilets are interesting! Info about the levetrinos you showed? Hope you take this as constructive and only my opinion. No worries if you disagree as you're blinking good at what you do or I wouldn't stay subscribed. Keep on cycling x
