  • This week I went stealth camping at Rutland Water, Oakham to give the ford transit stealth campervan a run at van life UK. 🚐
    We parked up in my off grid camper went Rutland Water cycling and spent a night in the tiny home on wheels.

    Those bikes are the bomb - never mind the bum!!! I love the sound of lambs and sheep and it occurs to mention that in my cycling days, I had a sheepskin seat cover that helped minimise the saddle soreness. Then again, you do adjust and as I note some else mentioned, finding the optimal height to pedal ratio is important. But am looking forward to seeing lots more of you on these fab wee things - c'mon summer!!! YAM xx
