[@krystsource8473]

Yeah. Saddle looks like a razor blade.❤️

[@AndyWardle]

😂 it is

[@WanderingWelshGirl]

Mmmm, socky beer, my fave 👌🏻🤣

[@AndyWardle]

You’re welcome to it 😂 🤢

[@Fell_Wanderer]

Andy, you have inspired me to get back out. I'm doing a solo bivi tomorrow, excellent video. Forget van camping, torch the vehicle and claim on the insurance, ATB

[@AndyWardle]

Done. 😂 hope you had a good un. 👌

[@mischef18]

Ha ha you said flock of cows, nice one bro. Enjoyed this video too, that small cooler is a good size for solo van camping I would say. Safe travels

[@AndyWardle]

Herd of horses. Flock of cows. Nobody knows 😂😂 yeah the cool box is great but it eats the power 😖 Atb mate.

[@mischef18]

Yep I have herd of horses bro, the flock of cows got me.

[@cheviotoutdoors]

Lush camp that Andy, can’t beat the Hen Hole, best place in the Cheviots for me 👍

[@AndyWardle]

Aye it’s a good un. Worth the effort to get to it. Plenty spots too Bivvys are better there I reckon. Atb 👍

[@northumberlandmountainhopper]

Nice bivy in a great spot, it’s good to see so many campers now out in the bivy’s Cheers

[@AndyWardle]

Yeah I like a bivvy now and again. Next time out tent though. Cracking pitch that too. 👍

[@alfiefranklin7831]

Get ya beers in the river, keep them cold!

[@AndyWardle]

😂 they were pretty cold. Had them in the van fridge 😉 👍

[@MCMOutdoors]

Send. Beer in hand.

[@AndyWardle]

Turn off fast. Rubbish

[@russellsprout2223]

Brilliant video, Andy. Great camping spot and tarp setup. Maybe the healthy diet needs some tweaking. Atb.

[@AndyWardle]

😂 it’s a man’s diet. 😂 the cycling burnt it all off. So it’s balanced 😂😂

[@MCMOutdoors]

Quality trip mate and some nice gear. One Wind make some lovely tarps and hammock gear so it was nice to see that shelter performing well. Send beers, radio, tents and all manner of other things. Atb mate.

[@AndyWardle]

Cheers mate. Yeah enjoyed it. It’s good up there. Coming back was mint. Electric bike better going up though 😂 the shelter was spot on. I’ll use it more. All manner of gear on the way. Send refunds on delivery fees

[@TheGreatRaymondoOutdoors]

Great video Andy! What a spot man. I had a can of that Arcade caper last weekend and it was like drinking 27 year old lucozade that had the lid left off mate. You were probably lucky not to get double tapped in the eye socket by an adder up there this time of year. Loved it, thanks for the upload and sharing the experience.

[@AndyWardle]

Not a great beer mate. My one and only I reckon. Yeah I’ve seen adders up there. Got lucky this time. It’s prime territory for them. Just keep your eyes peeled. Be reet. 👍

[@lizkent2624]

Lovely spot for a camp. I would prob look for a spot a bit further away from the river but nice place.

[@AndyWardle]

Yeah not everyone likes the river 💦 like. It send me to sleep though. 👍

[@hedgerowsandzeros]

Would make a decent day shelter for two people. Im often out in winter and cant stop for lunch because of the rain 👍

[@AndyWardle]

Yeah it’s good. Nice and big. You could wrap up in it just shorten it make a door. Loads of possibilities. 👌

[@grahamswildcamping]

That shelter looked mint. Simple, effective, really like the look of it

[@AndyWardle]

Yeah it was dead easy to pitch. Even in the wind. I should’ve filmed it. Link in description. They’re cheap like. 👍 definitely use it again

[@TheBobstevenson]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@pj8964]

What a nice video ...enjoy the peace and quiet. 👍

[@AndyWardle]

Cheers. Very peaceful 👌

[@milesfromanywhere.]

You should’ve charged those lads for a few selfies….they didn’t know who you were ffs 😂. Brave camping there like for 2 reasons, people and midge, massively popular with both. Canny chilled out that one, I’ll have a deek at the tarp. Atb mate, milesy

[@AndyWardle]

Aye I was expecting to have to go elsewhere but it turned out ok. They should’ve known me. How dare they 😂😂 loved the shelter it’ll be back out like. 👍

[@proffessorclueless]

Interesting gear, great jokes, and magical spot. Great vid.

[@AndyWardle]

Loved it. The jokes not so much 😂

[@billygoatfilms7531]

12 hour days at work, luxury that is Andy. Yes humans are dangerous and very annoying! Carrying all that beer on the bike, you mad? Lovely little spot for a tarp come bivvy camp. Bog Mertle good for keeping Mr Midge away. Burgers, bacon and cheese looked amazing. Free gear, lucky bugger! Great wildcamp come bikepacking adventure, well done to you 👍🍺

[@AndyWardle]

I’d rather do no hours at work 😂😂 the human element was ok in this. I only saw 2. Beers on the bike does the work. Bonus. Loving the burgers 🍔 again it’s my thing. I’m using more free gear on the next camp. Good stuff coming. Cheers for watching atb. 👍

[@danexitsstreetview3273]

Like the beer review being added Andy. You obviously have the experience to pull this one off well. Might try that Arcade Made one. 8% will help anybody sleep. Cheers.

[@AndyWardle]

I’ll do the odd one as it gets a bit tedious 😂😂 it wasn’t great but wasnt bad. 👍

[@grahamscothern4319]

Nice one Andy great camp and spot 👌👍 Cheers Graham

[@AndyWardle]

Cheers Graham. Yeah it’s good up there. Surprised nobody was already there. 👍

[@thechanneloffun3760]

🌜 love your vids 🌛

[@emz_adventure]

Well done for carrying ya bike up there andy 🎉

[@AndyWardle]

Wasn’t easy. I fell off twice coming back 😂

[@waynepeel437]

🐓🕳️ what a spot to chill ones boots after graft. Class Andy

[@AndyWardle]

Love it mate. The higher you climb the better it gets. Not many pitches though. Bivvys recommended 👍

[@wallsend_wildcamper]

Cycling would be a piece of piss until you get to hoolie. Killed me walking it with a 18kg pack 😂

[@AndyWardle]

Did you know it’s all uphill from hethpool. It’s deceiving like. I’ve walked it many times always knackered. Coming back on the bike I hardly pedalled. Just up the two hills. The rest I flew down. It was tricky after hoolie like. 👍

[@alanguthrie8415]

Good stuff Andy we were up at newton on the same night man and got a shower as well but what a fantastic bivy we had just like yourself mate .👍🏕

[@AndyWardle]

Cheers alan. It’s mint up in the herl like. Yeah a wee shower but wasn’t too bad. Bit breeze helped as well like. Catch you later 👍

[@teamrail]

Hi Andy, really enjoyed the video. The Henhole looks a great spot. Just rewatched the one you did there with Stoker and Pease👌👌Haven't seen you out with Thompo for a while, is he ok?

[@AndyWardle]

Yeah camped there twice now. Definitely going back there’s another pitch I want to try. 👍

[@natscat4752]

Nice camp 😊

[@AndyWardle]

Enjoyed it. Cheers. 👍

[@nightsinthewild]

Hahaha mother in laws socks.... I'll avoid that one then 🤣 love the herl! Never get sick of it but lucky to get it to your self these days.Canny trek on the bike from Hethpool and cant believe you got your bike up there! Tarp looks canny 😊

[@AndyWardle]

2 lads came up later on i was gutted 😂😂 they were ok though. Yeah swerve that beer. 🤢 not great. It’s all uphill from hethpool. I hardly pedalled coming back. Unreal. No wonder I was knackered going like. You’ll be surprised where I can get my bike 😂😂😂

[@nightsinthewild]

@@AndyWardle did you say 'weeeeeee' all the way back? Aye i woukd have been gutted as well but the cheviots are busier than the lakes at weekends now 🤣

[@AndyWardle]

@@nightsinthewildaye I did. 😂. I only saw those 2 lads up there like. Thought there’d be more. The carpark was chocka though. I don’t know where they all were I hardly seen anyone coming from hooly way. 🤷‍♂️

[@nightsinthewild]

@@AndyWardle i know of at least 6 oot and they all bumped into each other! They had a good laugh in the end by thr looks of it 🤣

[@AndyWardle]

@@nightsinthewild Neetmare that like. 😖

[@craig3401]

I was in the Cheviots Saturday night and thought that was your van in the carpark when I got back Sunday morning.yea the showers were a bit unexpected but the wind did keep the midges away

[@AndyWardle]

My vans famous now 😂😂 the showers at least proved the tarp was waterproof 😂 aye I was glad of the wind not a bad spot. 👍

[@howardpotts5763]

Bacon and beer what more do u want 😊

[@AndyWardle]

Women 😂. No. Nothing. 👍

[@jamiemorgan4146]

@@AndyWardle They can be glorious! You can’t live with them and you can’t strangle them.😬

[@IrelandRider]

You do know that tapping the top of a beer can is the wrong place to do it lol? Tap the sides, it releases the bubbles and stops overflow and fizz, I've always wondered why people tap the top. Not right! Anyway Andy, a cool vid to watch as they always are, thanks for sharing and see you on your next adventure ✌️ 🤙 🤟

[@AndyWardle]

I only do it for effect. I’ve no idea what I’m doing 😂 cheers for watching back out soon. 👍

[@AndyWardle]

[@weeringjohnny]

Would I be celebrating my ultralight compact tarp weighing nowt with a six-pack of beer in my pack? Hey, it's free world, at least when it comes to bikepacking.

[@AndyWardle]

😂 the bike takes all the weight. That’s right isn’t it?? 🤷‍♂️ 😂😂😂

[@daz_on_earth]

Any info on the panniers you use mate, looking to get some for my bike

[@AndyWardle]

Just cheap ones off Amazon mate. Nowt flashy. Did the job though 👌

[@wallsend_wildcamper]

What stove do u use andy? Does it spread the heat around the pan well. My stove is great at boiling water but just hotspots a pan and food sticks straight away

[@AndyWardle]

It’s the MSR wind pro. I used to use a cheap vango stove but like you say it ruined the centre of the pans. This one is great it spreads the heat nice. And has a great simmer. You can also invert the gas on it. 👍

[@richardhurst1969]

How’s the Flextail Mini been working out. Was looking at getting one

[@AndyWardle]

Been great mate it definitely works.

[@greggnoble5139]

Hi Andy the midgie sonar what you used. Whats it called...? Please answer.

[@AndyWardle]

Hi. It’s not available yet. If you check the description you’ll see a link for the tiny repel. That’s the one I’ve been using. It’s great. 👍 flextail gear one.

[@greggnoble5139]

@@AndyWardle thanks Andy up in Scotland and the midgies are really bad

Socks in a can no thanks mate 😂

[@AndyWardle]

😂 perfect description really

If your gears are skipping you may need to fine-tune the BARREL ADJUSTERS by the brakes. I learnt to do mine on KZbin........save yourself some cash👍👍

[@AndyWardle]

Yeah I will. It’s a nightmare I lost all momentum going up a steep bit. Other than that it was great 👍
