Peddars Way - Adventure Bike Ride though glorious Norfolk countryside

Peddars Way - Adventure Bike Ride though glorious Norfolk countryside
I take the mighty Triumph Tiger 800 XCA on a off-road adventure, perfect terrain for the 'big bike'.
We start the day with a quick trip to Krazy Horse in Bury St Edmunds (great bike shop and cafe) and then move on to the Peddars Way Trail (Trail section starts at 8:30).
A very nice route through Norfolk starting at Brettenham near Thetford and ending at Holme next the Sea. I think for a confident rider you could complete this in a light luggage mode, it might be a bit tight in a couple of place with full metal panniers, but it is certainly doable.
This is a useful planning document.

[@kevinedw2002]

Great video! Looking forward to sharing more of your adventures.

[@grumpy-dad3701]

Those ruts can be deep along this route. Lovely route. Ill be riding this in june 2024 on a mtb.

[@bosscat8951]

This is great I am in your area can't wait for he next vid. Looking forward to trying that route... might even try a bit of stealth camping on the way. Keep the videos coming, love it. Thanks

[@DaveandJaneLivingTheDream]

Thoroughly enjoyed the video. Thanks

[@twowheeledadventuresuk2739]

No worries

[@noveltycurtains]

We did part of the pedlars way last week for the first time ..started on the A 148 went up to the A11. Great fun looking forward to doing some more.

[@twowheeledadventuresuk2739]

It's a nice ride - just be careful in those ruts! Worth the effort tho for an Ice cream at Hunstanton.

[@shaunmayland9473]

Good vid , def had the weather for it 😀 .... looks easygoing and as a complete novice def makes me want to get my tyres dirty . All I could think while watching was ‘ there would be a great place for an ice cream’ 🤣 ... showing off your ‘neck of the woods ‘really well.

[@twowheeledadventuresuk2739]

Cheers Shaun, it was a bit rammed in Hunstanton when I got there so just went to the pub for some grub and a shandy - not too bad an end to the day!

Knox OR3's great summer glove , airy but great protection. £99 and BOA closure 👍

I’ve walked the Peddars way several times and I’m always a bit envious when I see you guys ride past. Unfortunately I don’t have my bike licence although I’d be happy to bimble along on a 50 if there was off road bike suitable.

[@tobythellama]

This looks great. Do you have the gpx?

What tyres are you using? Thanks

[@twowheeledadventuresuk2739]

I think in this I have the Dunlop Trailmax Missions on, but I wouldn't record them, well they are ok as long as it's dry, if you're out and it rains they are terrible, wet grass or and mud and they are useless.

[@mckillopadam]

@@twowheeledadventuresuk2739 I have them on currently, I think they’re ok for the type of tyre they are. Have you tried Anakee Wilds? If so, how do they compare? Thanks

[@twowheeledadventuresuk2739]

@@mckillopadam no, I’m on Motoz Rallz on my T7 and love them. My main focus is off-road so always go a bit more aggressive than the wilds

[@tonywilsdon7476]

Disgraceful, these tracks are for walkers and horses, that is what they have been used by for hundreds of years. No place for internal combustion engines

[@twowheeledadventuresuk2739]

Well they are legal routes to use for motorised vehicles and as 93 % of the public access network is solely open to pedestrians moaning that vehicles use this little bit strikes me as utterly selfish.

[@nnglnd]

B o a t byway open to all traffic. Legal for any one to use

[@dogzero1]

I really enjoyed that mate. And it is something I want to do in the summer. But try as I might I could not follow all of your fabulous root whilst looking at google maps. I got the start, lost you at Watton. Found the villages but could not work out how you connected them. I would love to do the exact same trip. Do you have a way to make the whole journey available and easy to follow for this old chap? Many thanks.

@@701Adventures I have no way of using GPX files? I don't use sat navs or such like. I like to look at maps. Mmeorise, stop and get a map out. Just like the old days.

@@dogzero1 Do you own or could you borrow a smart phone from someone?

@@701Adventures I do own a smart phone. I take it the route is only available via this GPX thingy then?

@@dogzero1 I’m not sure if that’s the only way to get the route, however the route is there in GPX format for you to try if you wish to do so. 👍
