[@damedavidfrith55]

Thanks for sharing your trip and showing you can be scared and still push through it happy trails 😊

[@alethearobinson8132]

Good to see you back on the bike. Your body heals. The psyche take longer. Give it time. Wales is truly a magical place, thank you for sharing. Cheers 🌞🚴‍♀️🖖

[@simonwiltshire]

That was a great ride, well put together as always, cheers.

I recommend the bit of the Four Rivers Ride that takes you a round the north of Mynydd Troed and Mynydd Llangorse, rather than going through Talgarth. Its perfect single track bridleway .

[@WalksInCamera]

Loved the woodland scenery and the dramatic views of the Black Mountains. I think I may have stayed in the tent a bit longer though!

[@Chriswilliams-lx9mx]

I live in wales and am sick of the rain 😢took the summer off from wrk maybe 2 month ago and I’m still waiting for it to arrive great vlogs by the way

[@robbief1]

😂 - summers a bust this year!

[@richardbarge8077]

It's no better in England!

[@Chriswilliams-lx9mx]

Oh no don’t say that 🙈🤣👍

[@Chriswilliams-lx9mx]

@@richardbarge8077 I know it’s all a bit 💩🤣👍

[@GravelGorauGwynedd]

[@alanhill618]

Great video josh great to see your back doing your adventures again look forward to your next one

[@nickblindlemon3383]

Truly inspiring channel, love the content.

[@janeencobb784]

It’s only natural for you to stiffen up after your experience. Same thing happened to me a couple of years ago. Time will heal the mental trauma. I must have your BONK hat!! Where can I get one?

[@kennyness8881]

Thanks for another good video. The drone footage adds a lot! Kenny in NWArkansas,USA.

Always a good day when a new adventure pops up …..atb Coops 👍🏻🚴

[@oleksandrmoskalenko2629]

I've been missing your videos here in Kyiv, Ukraine. Great to see you are back on the bike.

[@anthonydyke4683]

i love your cycling cap , where can i get one from ?

[@KeepSmilingAdventures]

Currently, nowhere, just a prototype. Maybe in the future if I can get it the way I like it and be able to sell it for a fair price.

[@alien-bass]

Your Tarp tent (Tarpstar) did it come with a tent pole ? Alpkit say the pole is extra as it’s a hiking tent, guess you use your walking stick.

[@KeepSmilingAdventures]

No I bought it without, but like you say alpkit do sell one separately. I opted for gram counter one instead. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJS0oHWaj7h0mJo

[@alien-bass]

@ thanks for that. It’s a bit confusing when you buy a tent with no pole 😂

[@arruaroutdoors]

I'm glad to know you're okay after the fateful incident. 👏👏👏👏

[@neilgmarsh4751]

Quick question: What’s the fork on your rig? I’m from Cardiff, but live in Caernarfon… I know what hills are? lol!

[@MyFriendPeter]

Used to love running in the black mountains and the Brecons

[@darrenross1974]

Brecons?

[@MyFriendPeter]

[@kennychristie4310]

When will the Top Bonk caps be available to buy?

[@Akkigraphy]

Any tips for carrying a tripod on a bike? I can't seem to get it right!

[@Gipfelstuermerle]

I think it needs time after an accident/ crash because the inner and the brain have this moments of crash. I remember the situation after a MTB crash and needed long time to ride in the forest tracks.

[@paulcomptonpdphotography]

WHat do you do for security with your bike over night?

[@KeepSmilingAdventures]

Nothing, wild camp in remote areas off the trail, and you won't see anyone

[@Gipfelstuermerle]

But thank you for this video
