  • The trans cambrian way is a just over a 100 mile off road bikepacking route starting at the England/wales border and takes you right across wales with epic views gruelling riding and awesome descents. After bailing this ride last time as i ended up in the middle of a storm with 60 mph winds we are back to try again this time with slightly better weather. Welcome to wales !

    What a world of difference! ☀️. When I watched the Grand Union Canal vid earlier in the week I did wonder whether you'd get caught up in this weekend's snow. Guess you must have filmed it a little earlier. Will stick this route on my 'to do' list.

    I’m glad you had better conditions for the second attempt at the Trans Cambrian Way. It looked a good route in the sun. When I was going round Claerwen, many years ago, I was stopped briefly so a film crew could have silence while they shot a scene for Mortimer’s Law, whatever that was. Your treatment of Bob’s family continues to shock me!

    Great video, nice ride! Very fine indeed. You mutter about the trains... in NZ there are incredibly limited train services... only take 2 bikes (or 1 bike if there is a trailer). Its pretty pathetic! I either drive or extend the tour with a long entry/exit ride.

      Hi, i do little before you ride videos after each trip while its fresh in my memory, th-cam.com/video/wZzelZNzObw/w-d-xo.html
      I think you could get by with the 43mm tyres but it will be a bit rough especially towards the end

  • @Akkigraphy
    @Akkigraphy 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    A technical question - How much air pressure do you maintain on these rough terrains? One the scale of one to ten, ten being the max a tyre can fill.

    • @KeepSmilingAdventures
      @KeepSmilingAdventures  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hmm its like 20psi. Max tyre pressure is like 50/60 psi you would never need to go that hard though
