    At our age, nobody cares what we look like! Main thing is, you are out doing stuff! I’m walking from Foxhill to Uffington on Saturday and will cook my lunch on my Trangia. My adventures have been fuelled by you! You are an inspiration, mate 👍

      Thats a nice walk Dave, I know that stretch of the Ridgeway very well:)

    Great to see you conferring with the ancestors. You won’t find a landscape like that anywhere else in the world. It’s the definition of England. It’s rolling hills & fertile land. Beautiful part of the world you live. Thank you for sharing it. Andy

    Ah, to live on the chalk! My grandparents lived in Mere for the last years of their lives and walked the ancient pathways. Both gone now but wonderful memories of visits down to Wiltshire ❤️

    We remember those places from twenty some years ago; Wayland’s Smithy was very green that hot summer (2003). We had fun looking at the thousands of coins pressed into the bark of the trees, folks wanting a blessing on their unborn children or trying to become pregnant. We tromped around the Uffington long barrow as well, and of course the White Horse, Old Sarum, Avebury, Stonehenge, and the lot. Nice country but very warm that August. The wife was in the throes of history overload, but we both loved it. Thanks for the memories.

    • @WiltshireMan
      @WiltshireMan  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks Gary, yes there are coins and other votive offerings left in trees and stones. Thanks for watching and glad it brought back some nice memories

      I did enjoy this adventure and the place I camped "Knighton Bushes" was a Romano British settlement around 2000 years ago, lots of history in Wiltshire

    There is true freedom in the countryside, I love it. I would go crazy if I wasn't able to get out to walk. It is beautiful land where you are, its heathland and woods here but I love it all. Thankyou Lord that we are able to wander and walk these places it is a wonderful blessing.

    Aye it's a tad slippery under tyre at the minute Sandy. Wheels to Wander are a channel I like, a young Dutch couple who cycle all over. I will check that channel too. that was great wee spot to camp - very stealthy and quiet. Wiltshire like many counties is blessed with beautiful landscapes. Thanks for posting Sandy.

    @AndyBrice 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thanks for the video. I appreciate the effort that goes into it.
    I cycled Swindon -> Albourne -> Swindon yesterday. I took a byway out of Albourne via Lower Lodge Barn. It was a total nightmare. Just a car wide and with massive wheel ruts that were too deep and narrow to allow pedalling and very slippery clay (no grass). It was hard to even walk along and cycling was out of the question. Next time I'll think twice about taking a byway!

    • @WiltshireMan
      @WiltshireMan  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi Andy, the byeways are in a hell of a state at the moment and only really usable by 4x4 vehicles, the bridleways are better but also some of those are not too good either and badly poached up in places

    Another inspiring video Sandy. Sad to think that we are the last of those who, in our youth, touched the stones at Stonehenge and clambeted to the top of Silbury Hill (just as it was being excavated by one of the universities) just a very short while before it collapsed at the tip and was closed to the public (they never did work out it was due to us)😂.
    I see you mamaged to get the Cornish Pasty in! Plenty more to go at..
    ECCLES CAKE, BAKEWELL TARTS, CHELSEA BUNS, FAT RASCALS, TOTTENHAM CAKE, BEDFORDSHIRE CLANGERS, MANCHESTER TARTS...CHIP BUTTYS! Food for thought indeed.

    Well you've done it again Sandy. taken this old man on another adventure. I could almost taste that coffee!. that plane that flew overhead looks like what we have here flying over all the time. herei its a C-130 Hecules. tubopprop. I live in Berkshire Hills between two mountains. the one Im on is 2.3k ft and the one I look out my window at is 2.1k ft and almost every single night anywhere from 6pm to 9;30pm that C-130 will fly overhead between the mt tops to keep under the radar for training purposes. (National Guard. I surmise) anyway great camp out. tnx agn for taking me along. es we'll CUDTL OM! 73 Gud dx. de Ellis WA1RKS

    • @WiltshireMan
      @WiltshireMan  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      We had a lot of C130's stationed at a place called Lyneham about 10 miles away Ellis, Now the airbase is closed and no more C130's, I think the plane in this video was the new model that replaced the old C130, it was heading back to RAF Fairford which is now used by the USAF

    Fantastic Sandy. Enjoyed that immensely. Just what I loved doing when I was your age and a good bit younger.. That makes me sound old!! Out in the wilds on your own, with a bike or on foot, with just a little tent and minimal gear - that's the perfect adventure. Keep doing it my friend.

    @charlespark7338 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hi Sandy , good to see your brakes were still working after all that mud. Quite an achievement to tackle some of those tracks this time of year I have only been that way in the dryer times. It is a shame some of the byways tracks are made worse by motorised vehicles, I suppose we have to live with sharing, but it does spoil the tracks. At least you did not have to share your pastie with Elvin Smith. 👍👍.

    • @WiltshireMan
      @WiltshireMan  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      My biggest concern was mud getting on the chain and wrecking the rear mech, that happened to me on the KAW Charles. I'm glad I can peddle the bike, my hip wasn't sore at all. I reckon I've got a lot more miles left in my legs but I'm not a fast rider as you can no doubt tell from Strava:)

    Thanks for bringing us all along again Sandy. Love the pasty nod to Josh's channel.

    • @WiltshireMan
      @WiltshireMan  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi Bill, Josh has one of the best channels on TH-cam as far as I'm concerned. He's a great, maybe even a Legendary cyclist:)

    • @billhambelton7698
      @billhambelton7698 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Agreed Sandy along with Susanna on her Brompton and yourself, my favourite TH-cam cycling channel. I've still no idea how he bikepacks without a roll mat.

    • @WiltshireMan
      @WiltshireMan  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I have also wondered how the hell he can be comfortable just laying onn the cold ground, I guess he is putting some spare clothing beneath him maybe? I also learned something from watching a recent video where he was comparing the Lanshan 1 to the Alpkit tarpist, I spotted an inflatable Vee Pillow :)@@billhambelton7698

    Wow, I always get a buzz when I see the smithy, an amazing and glorious place. Thankyou Sandy, indeed it is glorious I tells ya hahaha....!!!! West Kennet is an incredible place, probably my very favourite. I have always preferred Dragon hill to white horse hill, there is a beautiful energy on Dragon hill. Lovely to see the downs, no houses, no cars, no people.... BLISS !!!!!! Be well Sandy
