KEEP SMILING ADVENTURES BIKEPACKING Q&A

[@petersharkey5510]

I like how you keep life simple, low cost and achievable. No fancy stuff just genuine simplicity. Looking forward to your upcoming adventures. You’ve inspired me to take off to ride Portugal, Spain and possibly touch North Africa in a couple of weeks time, so thanks for that otherwise ld be doing the same old thing. All the best for 2023.

[@helenwhalley798]

Ha, I watched this while enjoying a cup of tea 😁

[@imred.n]

From the first question to the end, every answer you gave Josh was very solid and full of experience. Another impressive video. Big Fan here!!.More power to you. 😁👏🚴🚴

When I bike tour I bring a small pack of baby wipes.They keep the back side clean for hours in the saddle and any where else to feel fresh 🍼👶

[@johnbruce949]

Hey, glad you’re back. Love the vids. Wishing you success in 23 and hopefully you can just work as a presenter full time. Good luck mate.

[@kevindean9613]

I find your videos really inspiring , You seem to carry very little don't you ever get really cold on some of the winter adventures ?

[@Grandadgreyhair]

Love the chat, not heard the tune what should we do with a drunken sailor since I was at school over 50 years ago😂

[@alethearobinson8132]

Really liked the Q&A. Answered most of my questions. Your filming of the English countryside just keeps getting better. You are quite a good musician as well. Keep Smilin' and keep posting🤗

[@lushleeway]

Thanks for taking the time to answer our questions 👌

[@thomascollin6267]

Great vid Josh, my view in terms of clipless Vs flats is that you don't have to think/care about where your feet are when your tired or its the middle of the night. The other thing you can do with bigger shops is leave your bike inside by the cashier's.

[@emerald-islander]

Love this Guys contents

[@WiltshireMan]

That was interesting Q and A Josh. Stay warm. England is cold right now. I'll have to buy you a coffee

[@dalj4362]

That was a good video. Nice you still have the Bianchi. Your pretty much free to go anywhere and do what you want, mate., which is a rare thing these days. I hope you continue with youtube and being free.

[@edwardgurhy100]

I thought - oooh look - new Josh video, think I will just pause it, go and make a cup of tea first and sit down and enjoy! Hay-ho..... 🤗🤣

[@Littlegreenlightweight]

Always fancied the silk road race myself. 👍

[@chrislawton4692]

Thanks for answering, Keep up the good work. Hope you can make a few more quid off it in the future 👍

[@martintin250]

Keep going man, love your work. 👍👍👍 chin up buttercup 👍👍

[@davidedwards4676]

Awesome Video thanks Josh keep them coming...look forward to seeing the G.B. divide....epic

[@GrahamFootBicycleLover]

Hello Josh, nice to see you back out. Hidden musical talents eh. Brilliant.

[@NathanCasey]

The DJI Mini SE, does that have follow mode?

[@paulnewman3823]

Excellent. Content find any other word go describe the video.

[@jake8jb35]

kitchen porter crew!

[@stephenking2218]

Keep Smiling it real Josh, great content.

[@weeringjohnny]

Great Q&A. Only problem was that all your answers prompted a whole lot of other questions. I mean that as a compliment.

[@CR250noob95]

Brilliant video! Have to say I'm looking forward to seeing you do the gb divide, its defo one on my bucket list. Keep up the great work mate 👍

[@bikepackinguk]

Great video thank you

[@johnnyloco11]

Josh you are one of a kind - could happily never eat a hot meal again! Do you have any interest in doing an event like GDuro or HT550? How have you got on with the train strikes? I thought that's why you might not have one much of late.

[@KeepSmilingAdventures]

Im not really that interested in doing official events i don't enjoy being around lots of people. I will ride them routes though. Train strikes were ok didn't really seem to get caught up in them but the trains out of Bournemouth are basically non existent atm because of that land slip. Was meant to be going away the day that happened 🤦‍♂️

[@keepontreking3661]

Josh ,plan your jogle around the midges, there horrible and the size of terrordactils, sorry about the spelling ha ha.

[@KeepSmilingAdventures]

Ohh im well aware its not my first rodeo with the fuckers 😂

[@juliannejameson8987]

Great video and love this channel. How do you get a MTB on the train? Would love to do gravel adventures on my MTB but the MTB would be hard to hang on the train hooks and its a major challenge to book a bike on a train - any suggestions? Would love a video on how you get to/from adventures with a bike - often far harder than the ride!

[@KeepSmilingAdventures]

It often is, i did do a video a while back about how i got back from trans cambian way kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y6DVpYpjpKiarcU

[@julianhawker7672]

You have to book a bike slot mostly I have found at the time you buy your train ticket BUT bike is free. Major Problem I have encountered is people dumping luggage/cases in the bike spots, A few times I have ended up just leaning MTB up against anything I can and sitting on the floor/someones case with it there...... HTH, Go have fun and enjoy. 🙂

[@Furgification]

Nice work!

[@matryderadventures]

Hi. Love the channel and enjoyed the kayak video too. Did you get your kayak back?

[@KeepSmilingAdventures]

Nahh don't think i will ever see that again 🫤

[@matryderadventures]

@@KeepSmilingAdventures That's annoying. I'll buy you a Ginsters!!!!

[@Jason-rk4xc]

Intrigued by the Calais to Seville trip. Is there a video?

[@KeepSmilingAdventures]

unfortunately not long before i decided to start filming.

[@andygoodyer4535]

Very imformative 👍 Are you always on your own or do you have a Drone buddy ? Also when we did the KAW it was a couple of years ago in the July heatwave 35plus , we couldn't find enough water and also to Hot midday what would you do we thought perhaps would have been better ride dawn until the heat gets to much , find shade and perhaps continue late afternoon/evening

[@KeepSmilingAdventures]

i'm always on my own, yeah can be hard to find water along the KAW with the lack of streams, when i was cycling through portugal years ago id set off really early and make use of the cool mornings then hide under a tree and have a siesta. Then ride into the evening.

[@andygoodyer4535]

@@KeepSmilingAdventures thanks for taking time to reply 🙂

[@ElDiabl0187]

Do you have any friends that ride with you ever? I wish I could go ride with you, we would probably have a lot of fun and make a lot of new friends along our rides. Not all of them would be human .😂

[@ElDiabl0187]

I ride a infinito like yours too.

[@theexplorer6813]

Hire a van for the day 60 odd. Drive to Scotland. Give the van back there.

[@KeepSmilingAdventures]

I don't drive so not an option.

[@TheGingerCyclist]

This is a problem I have thought about as well - which company can you hire a van for the day for £60 and drop off somewhere else?

[@dalj4362]

@The Ginger Cyclist Don't think it's worth it when you add in fuel and time driving. Unless you live near Scotland.

[@TheGingerCyclist]

@@dalj4362 thanks. Was thinking for trips closer to home where the start and end points are miles apart - like a coast to coast for example.

[@dalj4362]

@The Ginger Cyclist Enterprise have branches all over the UK.
