Kit breakdown for solo 73km hike and what went wrong.

I hope you find this video helpful. I'm in the process of editing the Mull of Galloway footage and awaiting a better filming setup arriving for my bikepacking adventure next week. Stay tuned for more adventures and the kit I use as a professional expedition/mountain leader and bike guide.

Lovely episode my friend, as along nicely narrated and elaborated!

[@bloomingwildadventures]

Thank you so much for watching, that's very kind. I'm sure I'll improve over time

Kia Ora from NZ. Looking forward to the bikepacking content... Take care.

[@bloomingwildadventures]

Thanks for watching. Yes, bikepacking will probably be the main focus 😀

I too have rucksack strap pain problems due to a boney clavicle lump, which I compensate for by tightening the chest straps… interesting to hear your solution… thanks🙏😊

[@bloomingwildadventures]

Ooh I definitely give the chiropodist felt a go, it's super padded and sticky! Would last a good few days I reckon. Good luck

great first video. your youtube will grow grow grow, and thanks for the kit choice - Get a go pro.

[@bloomingwildadventures]

Thanks for watching, haha, I'm sure it'll grow over time but it's not my main focus at the moment. I have a GoPro but actually don't like it so I'm going to get a Dji action camera and tripod thingy to gain different angles 😀

Hi, what did you mean you've gone barefoot recently, and why did that cause blisters when wearing your scarpa boots?

[@bloomingwildadventures]

Ahh, I've been wearing only Vivobarefoot shoes and my feet have relaxed a little more (widened) which caused an issue with my previous boots that are really solid with no room for movement. Both are great boots but my feet are loving Vivo shoes

​@@bloomingwildadventures whoa, thats interesting.
