E Bike Tarp and Bivy in the Forest

[@christhornley1664]

Nice little camp, it's so relaxing just watching. The heated jacket's a brilliant idea. It's great to get away from all the noise and nonsense to the peace and quiet of nature. Thanks for posting.

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching Glad you enjoyed it It’s a great quiet hideaway Cheers Adrian

[@macinthewild8116]

Lovely camp that Adrian , think I’ve swan in that Lough ! 😊

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi Shaun, thanks for watching You can’t resist the water !! I may have to try Cheers Adrian

[@pauljames1873]

Your jacket had me thinking about Inspector Gadget. Relaxing nicely paced video as always!

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching Glad you are enjoying the vids Cheers Adrian

[@BorderRambler]

Brilliant to see a bike camp Adrian, the panniers will be a game changer 👍 loving the heated coat , ideal for a cold arse like me 🥶 atb Dave

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi Dave, I enjoyed it for sure, I went the last few miles home without battery which was hard as the gears don’t go low enough for my legs on the hills ! Will do a coastal camp before I invest to make sure it’s for me, the rucksack should stay on if I am on the road and not bouncing along gravel !! Coat is great for short walks or on a bike I need the battery as not up to your fitness Cheers Adrian

A great camp as always. Your an inspiration for bivvy camping and your in my eyes the best at it. I haven’t done many but you have inspired me to do more and I will be doing one this Friday and look forward to it. The heated jacked looks good quality and is very handy when you in this weather too. Hope to see you on a hill something Adrian and keep up the great blogs. Atb Mark

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi mark and thanks for watching, funny you commented on this one and then your video popped up so I have subbed, don’t know how I missed the channel ! Can’t beat a bivy, I am going to try and bivy right through Cheers Adrian

[@PhilWaud]

I'm loving your videos Adrian, I've done quite a few wild camps but hopefully going for my first bivvy camp this week. I've picked up a lot of tips from your channel, thank you.

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching Glad you are enjoying the vids Cheers Adrian

[@grahamswildcamping]

Smashing Adrian, that bike looks great! I think I recognised where you camped there 👍

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi Graham, Thanks for watching, Yes,It’s where we camped, Cheers Adrian

[@paganoutdoors3193]

Cracking camp Adrian, definitely can't beat the tarp bivvy combi, the jacket looks cool too, good health and safe travels my friend, cheers craig

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi Craig, thanks for watching, I really can’t envisage using a tent very much, I can camp anywhere in the bivy, had a zip put in the Hunka and I am sourcing a MLD bivy, it’s so light ! Cheers Adrian

[@kurtsteiner8384]

Piece of advice get militry pouch, belt. Put water container s on this, and other heavy items. This takes the weight, other items can go in the pack. Saves putting all the weight on you back and shoulders. Hope it helps

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching Will have to investigate Cheers Adrian

[@stephen4600]

I enjoyed the video and also watched the Rab repair video it's looking great once again , thanks to you I've bought a Dutch hooded bivvy and must admit it's so much better than others , your videos are like a shared journey that's great . Thank you 👍⛺

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching, glad you enjoy the journeys, they are there for a memory for the kids Honestly the hooped bivy is the best by far, heavy I know but warm, breathable reliable protection, mine will be out again soon, I need the zip !!!!! Cheers Adrian

[@cheviotoutdoors]

Nice change that Adrian. Thought you might have found the lost bit from your tripod on the return journey

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi Dave, unfortunately not as I did loads of exploring so used different routes Cheers Adrian

[@rodoutdoors]

That's great. I see some fancy electric mountain bikes around where I backpack. Sounds nice to get to a camp in an hour or two instead of 10 lol. If I had one around I'd probably already try but I want to resist for now. I want to keep hiking to get around. For my health and endorphins 😅

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi rod, I agree I enjoyed it for a change but do prefer hiking,you see more when you are not watching the ground to avoid things etc My main aim is for one or two on the coast, so I don’t have to park up and leave the car Cheers Adrian

[@PhilDodsworthOutandAbout]

Cracking video mate, another belter

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching Glad you enjoyed it Cheers Adrian

[@LundysWildcampBushcraft]

Ebike-packing is the way forward Adrian i love that location looks like lot's of tree felling going on up there canny jacket i was asked too review one but never heard back from them atvb Jimmy 😎😎👍👍

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi Jimmy, thanks for watching Bike packing is good, I will do more, but I prefer walking as I take more in, Cheers Adrian

[@dewbuofficial]

@@northumberlandmountainhopper Thank you!

[@dewbuofficial]

Hey, we love your channel.

[@ashleyhoward8926]

Ortlieb panniers & bags if you can mate, they're guaranteed waterproof & good quality.

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching, I know they are the best but I am just dabbling at the minute, I may consider one large ortlieb rack bag and fix a small rucksack on the front, or just cheap ones to start, Not sure I will do it that often as the bike hinders how far off the path you can go, did enjoy it mind. Cheers Adrian

[@rtk3543]

Cheers for that Adrian, that jacket looks good might be just what I need to keep my old bones warm. atb mate.

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching Jacket amazing for sure, great for woodlands,walks beach walks, Cheers Adrian

[@micksoden7064]

Way to go, Adrian!

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching Glad you enjoyed it Cheers Adrian

[@tarnnicolson2500]

Another enjoyable video, looks like a fun camp. Soon you going to need a solar panel or small generator for all your electrical bits 😂 enjoy have a super week Adrian

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi Tarn, glad you enjoyed it, lol the coat will be excellent for a night in the forest or if on the bike, But not for the hills it’s a bit heavy So hopefully will stick to a battery pack for the phone and watch, I want to cut down the weight lol Cheers Adrian

[@woofwoof9647]

Dont have bush fire from ya Exploding Bike !!!

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and lol possible

[@Dutcharmytent]

Exactly the information I was looking for. So much easier than walking. I am in the Peak District this weekend with my Tarp. I made racks for the front and back of my bike with M8 studding obtained cheaply from the electrical wholesaler. I used a brake pipe bender to shape the rod and I used assorted EURO clamps which are rubber lined on the handle bars and stem. Load stays on tight that way. Make the rack broad.

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching, it was a great experience, I will do some more, but I prefer to walk, so I see more and find hidden spots, Enjoy your trip, I only ever dabbled in the Peak District, probably missed out there, Cheers Adrian Cheers Adrian

[@Dutcharmytent]

@@northumberlandmountainhopper Thank you Adrian for taking the time to reply. The format of your videos where you survive on the most minimal of gear brings back memories of camping age 16 around 1972.. We never paid to camp the night back then.

[@CuantoSinSentido]

Thanks for the video. That jacket looks amazing, where did you bought it? The shopping basket tho! 😊

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching, Glad you liked the video, The basket lol beggars can’t be choosers lol I am waiting for the jacket link I will post asap Its amazing Cheers Adrian

[@craigdann3954]

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching, Glad you enjoy the videos, This tarp was the dd super light tarp s, I also use the dd super light 2.8x3 and the dd 3x3 Cheers Adrian

[@craigdann3954]

Thanks for that.. I kind of guessed they were but wasn't sure..I like the idea of tarp camping like you.. have thought of an army basha.. any thoughts..? Sorry to pester

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi any tarp works Cheers

[@kevinredpath3345]

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching, forgot the wahey but I probably save that for the best views ! The coat is great for a forest walk or a bike ride, but heavy for the hills, It’s a great coat Cheers Adrian

[@Asdf-789]

I had a look at the dewbu site - it seems be only US and Canada shipping direct from site.😢

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching, you are right, that’s the link they gave me, I will mention it You can find them on Amazon so check there Cheers Adrian

[@woofwoof9647]

Well there goes a fitness training Adrian , youll end up taking the stupid thing to Scotland !!

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching, exactly that’s why it may well be not seen for a while !!!!! It made a change but more to see if it could cope with a beach camp so parking not an issue Cheers Adrian

[@derekmacdonald4441]

I know the helmets are for our safety but I just can't bring myself to wear one

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Hi and thanks for watching I know how you feel, but the roads are so crazy Cheers Adrian
