- The first in my mini series, riding Cycling UK's Traws Eryri route, super accessible and fun trip from Machyllneth to Conwy. Designed with mountain bikes in mind, this bikepacking trip can be done quickly, slowly, camping or using hostels. Surely one of the best, ready to go routes in the UK and Wales.

Well I must say that you two lovely ladies exude everything that is fun and exciting about bicycling. Thanks so much. Carry on and on and on……please
Aw thank you. We plan on doing just that
I took an optional singletrack section on a bikepacking trip last week, and it was very muddy, rooty, and with a bunch of downed trees that we had to lift our bikes over. It was a blast, but definitely not what we thought we were going to encounter. It was a super fun trip! I can thank you two for inspiring me to get out there. Good to see you're at it again.
Fantastic scenery !
A hill is a puncture.
A mountain is the list of mechanicals & mishaps on a Jools adventure ! :) ❤ ☀️
Nice adventure! I think I would die of shock if Juliet did an adventure with no problems or equipment stuff ups 😅
You and me both 😂
Haha, yes, well you're never going to die of shock then, are you ... 😁🤣😉
This video reminded me so much of why I love cycling! Getting out with a friend and setting off somewhere different😊👍 Miss it so much!
Thanks for the great video Juliet! That beer made you forget the name of your tent🤣🤘🏼
Thanks for sharing👌👍
Super om jullie te volgen in jullie avontuur in Wals
Juliet always keeping it real.. ❤
Wow great scenery!
What a beautiful route! Incredibly green. Have you looked at the Tailfin rack with the Aero Pack? It will keep your bag off of the rear wheel.
Oh my!
Laura, a chamois is your friend, saviour, supporter, best cycling investment you can make! (OK, after a decent bike, computer, lights ... )
Hi, love the videos, wondering what benefit the Di2 is however, guess im a bit old school but wouldn’t be a safer option with all your travels? 😉
Loved this vlog. Would love to see the route x
Great video, a group of us are doing this on Monday, can't wait 😊
i think as i live in the mountains , a hill is Everthing that makes up the mountain . thank you for the hard work
Beautiful ride! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Looks like such beautiful country side
The only good bike trip is when the trip goes wrong but ends with a good time. Great video and channel!
That's my local routes 😁. Gutted I didn't get to meet a celebrity!
Loving the Welsh names pronunciation 😂😂😂
Ha, yeah, sorry 😂
Im riding the route later this year so interested how you get on looks great so far enjoy 🍺
I've ridden that trail, it's really nice. I usually camp in Brithdir, its back up the trail, just past Dolgellau. There's the usual amenities, plus a lovely little river and fire pits.
That ford looked dodgy!! Thanks for sharing this - I live in North Wales, and might just look this up!
Highly recommend it!
I’d have thought that was more of a two beers ride 😂 Cracking scenery. 👍
I attempted to apply touch up paint on my car after 1 Heineken, it didn’t go well. I totally appreciate that you checked on the alcoholic percentage before deciding, kudos sista.
You should be able to charge Di2 from a powerbank. Worth a try and something lots of people travel with on bike packing trips if the Di2 runs out of juice.😊
I didn’t pack the charger 😩
A hill can be formed from faulting, erosion and movement and deposition of sediment by ice glaciers. A mountain is formed through shifting of tectonic plates or volcanism. A hill is usually below 2,000 feet or 600 meters. A mountain is usually above 2,000 feet or 600 meters. Source: GOOGLE
Hi, great vid. Really fun to watch. I’ve been wondering about this route for a while. Would you say it’s rideable on a gravel bike? I note that both of you have front suspension and some sections seem a bit rough.
M o r n i n g !
Im taking my gravel bike to Barmouth soon, planned to ride over the bridge and down the trail. Could anyone share a link to the route the ladies came down from to that trail to the lake maybe?
Laura!!!
A height above 2,000 ft, or more latterly 610 m, is considered necessary to be classified as a mountain - as opposed to a hill - in the British Isles. With the exception of Munros, all the lists require a prominence above 15 metres (49.21 ft).
Thank you!
Fantastique ❤
❤❤❤
Cable!
Amazing video and riding partner. Why does she not wear a shammy? And also why ride these routes as fast as you can if the are absolute gorgeous. I rather take all the time in the world.
Check out the movie _The Englishman That Went Up A Hill But Came Down A Mountain._
I don't know why I got hung up on the facts that both you and your friend's vans were broken down at the same time. And then the gear shifter broke followed by a dead battery and no charger... What's going on? Beautiful scenery btw. Have the same BA Tigerwall tent, works great.
My friends and I call going with no chamois as going “chamando” (like commando…no underwear, only no chamois).
Hah brilliant!
'Third' !
Always enjoy your videos. I do wish you (although good effort) and other TH-camrs would research how to pronounce the Welsh language.Diolch
I did! Just because I got it wrong sometimes it doesn’t mean I’m not trying to
A mechanical you just can’t handle, the cars are playing up. 😂😂😂. Oh and chamois is your best friend so educate that rider immediately. You need to back pack more often.
Don’t talk crap. Need to bikepack more 😆 this ain’t my first rodeo! And it’s up to the person riding to decide on what they wear to ride
Just say NO to electronic shifting on simple bicycles...
Mine’s a very complicated bicycle 😆
