WE'RE GRAVEL BIKEPACKING TO THE UK!

[@JimmyTheCyclist]

I laughed when you pointed out the dry stone walls (probably no more than 200 years old) were hadrians wall - Worth visiting Vindolanda if you're up that way again, roman fort and live archaeological dig

[@rosssanelli]

Easy to see why it’s so easy to watch and why you fall in love with this group . Great clip 😊

[@timbiddle6866]

Broken Britain, the roads are so rundown. Thank you for the content. If I ever end up living in NL again, will hopefully bump into you all.

[@nemixCOD]

Jelmer is such a funny guy! his facial expressions are fantastic !

[@JonathanBreiter]

As someone who lived and cycled in the Netherlands for 5 years and who recently moved to the UK, I would be happy to see that path when I go for a gravel ride haha! UK roads and paths will humble you completely, unbelievable the stuff you find here, especially when comparing it with NL. Hope you have fun guys!

[@Bauchito1]

Always a pleasure. Thanks for this one. Greetings from Hamburg.

[@headroomcapital]

Lol, that last shot of Botje 🤣 looking forward to DR and Traka vids 😍

[@marcuzzo211]

i dont know why but the harmony in this squad made me laugh a couple times

[@hoysy7]

i can agree that is the worst road in the uk have rode it hundreds of times on my local gravel route .it was great watching you ride places i do all the time .hope you enjoyed it and keep making the fantastic videos you do 🙌

[@keithmaclure9101]

Antonine also built a wall- up nearer to Glasgow- think it was about 200yrs after Hadrian.

[@mechanicus84]

welcome to the uk guys! - that may actually be one of the best roads in the country lol wait till you see the rest! - enjoy the trip and if you ever get the chance try the north york moors! - great content!

[@twowheelsbeyond]

OMG, this is wonderful. I am also "very content with the content" @3:50

[@myturbulance]

What a way to start a day. Thanks Mr.

[@Thorsten89342]

Come down to Devon, I use a gravel bike for road rides as the roads are in such a state here! 😂

[@xmarcika]

Don't! It's still raining here 🤣🤣 Crazy weather last days. Good luck!

[@johnbenten7942]

Great Friends...Great Life...Enjoy!

[@JohnPilling25]

That looked like an awesome route without too much on the actual roads.

[@julianallen515]

Aside from Mikey's dislike of mornings, you boys are having so much fun. Good on ya.

[@EricWolkotte]

Hi, cool video again! I saw your damage with your frondrack and I also recognize the discussion about whether or not to use panniers are behind. It maybe not looking cool, but if you go out for a longer period of time with a tent, cooking gear, etc. and everything with you and the weather is a bit colder, those panniers in the back come in handy! I just used the Divide from Old Man Mountain when I cycled the Pieterpad last week. Works perfectly and can be used both front and rear on any bike. Maybe something for you guys? Greetings from Holland!

[@Fernwee]

Will look into it, thanks for the suggestion! And the panniers don’t look cool was a joke ;)

[@colekalenak5087]

New UK video after I just finished bikepacking Scotland, nothing better!

[@edinburgh1965]

Mad as a box of frogs, but brilliant.... love your enthusiasm...

[@jorgbruininck2490]

Ik ben veelste laat maar: Hoe heet die bagagedrager op de voorkant die kapot ging?

[@jorgbruininck2490]

3:20

[@ImranShaikh-gh2wd]

Lol - that road looks like one of our best!

[@Fernwee]

Ajjjj

[@velovoice47]

Fantastic video as ever but I am super puzzled why you thought any of those farm field walls were Hadrian's Wall??? If somebody told you that, they were pulling your leg! 🤣

[@Fernwee]

I think it’s Dutch humour ;)

[@christopherphillips5608]

Quality content as always chap.

[@missioninlife7280]

I am a show regular watcher, thanks for sharing.

[@danielchernomorets7746]

Haya, Can you advice what’s the metal holder for fork bag do your colleagues used and what’s the model of your backpack? :)

[@aidanmahony1681]

that road looks like luxury

[@nambaksakim9840]

You guys should come to New Zealand as well! Come on 😊

[@Fernwee]

Would love to!

[@saiconer]

Please do more videos . Great

[@m1les7]

Ace vid, welcome to the uk and sh🤪t roads! Looking forward to the DR vid 🏁🏁🏁

[@thiesboel3969]

What kind of Mammut backpack are you using in this video?

[@febbone]

What is the bike you see at 8:57?

[@holgaholic]

why did you paint the helmet white?

[@Fernwee]

Why not?

[@nickschoenbaechler2027]

Very Nice Trip 👍🏽

[@padyakerongmanoy7471]

What is ur prefer tire width for your gravel bike?

[@Fernwee]

47mm!

[@LaurentGloaguen]

Love your new hair.

[@dwhhhhhhhhhh]

sorry you had to go to england. that’s rough

[@jansen1975]

Casual Arnold Tuinman Cameo in there :)

[@Fernwee]

Always lurking ;)

[@michaelspence159]

As some one who lives in Newcastle. I can confirm that road really is unbelievably bad.

[@Whoami12000]

Did you spray paint your helmet broo

[@DanRhysHill]

Worst road in the UK... nah, you guys have seen nothing!

[@TheTomster21]

Seen main roads worse than that 🤣

[@Fernwee]

Lol

[@richym2020]

The UK has good roads. Crater sized potholes and poor surfaces are a reminder we've never had it so good!

[@treasurewoodisland]

That road is next to my house and I have learned to enjoy it :). Nice to see familiar scenery!

[@reddering55]

Wat voor rekjes gebruiken jullie voor de fietstassen achter, voor mijn racefiets op zoek naar oplossing voor een bikepack vakantie

What's the rack on top of the tailfin rack?

The Allygn front rack that snapped off my fork

[@DanyVanDudeson]

What’s with your helmet?

[@Fernwee]

Gave it a uniquely artistic paintjob

[@nicholascowen]

That’s just a standard cycle path in the UK outside of major cities. This is why people don’t ride on them.

[@Fernwee]

Crazy

[@TheTomster21]

Next time lads try a pork pie!

[@Fernwee]

Sounds delish!

[@Michaelsmith21588]

Are you taking turns with wearing this big backpack?

[@Fernwee]

I wish!

[@brian1971berry]

Think about gathering the stuff that you guys won't use for a few days together and courier it to a stop along your route where you think you will need it.

[@Fernwee]

I like your thinking

[@Stevehatesgravel]

I’ve been riding cyclocross bikes “off road “ for decades before all this gravel bollocks started

[@Fernwee]

We can’t all be as great as you!

[@robertlucke7487]

Probably wasn't wise to slag off this Hadrian guy - have you heard of the Pretorian guard? He could let them hunt u down and then you'd be in real trouble ...

[@Fernwee]

Ohhhh shit

[@snoopdutt1985]

Welcome to the UK and our rubbish network and cycling infrastructure 😁.

[@gindara21]

time to change that helmet brother.

[@basbaas21]

You thought my hair is gonna be a touch whiter, let's do my helmet as well?

[@Fernwee]

Exactly!

[@deanallan48]

Welcome to the UK, apologies for the british weather and cuisine ;p

Worst road? We have main A roads worse than that.

[@benhaywood2510]

Fuck. I saw the Instagram post from Focus; didn't realise you'd actually gone over the bars because of the failing "rack" bolt. Hope you're doing good still!

[@Fernwee]

All good, was very lucky I guess!

you need to research Hadrian he was no fool and that’s not the wall good video though

@ 4:08 Eh no that be the Antonine Wall But close enough 😉and that was not build straight. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonine_Wall

[@ariebenschop4632]

Nope, you should check that again :)

[@AngusOg69]

@@ariebenschop4632 I’ll concede that point and add most northly wall. 🤔😃

Antonine Wall was more of a ditch than a wall
