Icy Roads To Cappadocia In Our INEOS Grenadier | EP10

Episode 10 - The Icy Roads To Cappadocia In Our INEOS Grenadier
We had hit 12000 miles since departing London and so it was time to service Jane, our Grenadier in Sofia but first, we had to get through one of the biggest snowstorms Bulgaria had seen in decades. To make matters worse, this wasn’t the only challenge we encountered regarding the weather.
We then had to think about our plan for the Winter bearing in mind we live in a tent with our one and three year old. Before deciding on our plan, we spent some time in Cappadocia chilling out and exploring the area slowly. The surprises don’t end here though!

What an adventure you have. The part with the balloons in Cappadocia was stunning and magical. The ice part was really scary….enjoy life and your adventures. Your kids will be better experiencing the traveling.

Thanks for the comment! We're glad you enjoyed the magical balloons! As for the ice, this is not something we want to go through again to be honest. Like you say, the plan is to enjoy our journey and give the kids the best experience we possibly can.

Awesome guys, absolutely outstanding! What an epic journey for all of you and a great experience for the kids. Good effort on the Icey roads, as Matt is ex RAF his shovelling skills could probably do with a bit more practise. Video is great guys, safe travels. Matt get some cheeseburgers down your grid.

We’re glad you enjoyed this one! It’s becoming known as “The Ice and Balloons one” 🎈

[@user-yv8kd2jo2x]

Wow, that is spectacular. I never imagined human flight could be so magical. What a privilege to have witnessed that. I'm hoping that one day I may have epic journeys also in a grenadier. Your video was amazing. I was here for information about the grenadier, now I look forward to following the rest of your awesome journey...

[@projectwildearth]

Indeed it was a privilege. As for epic journeys in a Grenadier, it’s a big wide world out there full of endless possibilities. 😊 We’re glad you enjoyed this episode are looking forward to the rest of the journey! Plenty more to come! We also plan to do some more Grenadier specific content.

You don’t have to dig out the ice on the road. Spreading some grave on the ice is adequate. Gives good traction on the icy road surface…

[@projectwildearth]

That's a fair point but with the situation we were in, there was no way we were going to be experimenting with that to work out whether we had the traction we needed or not. There also wasn't a great deal of gravel available, certainly not enough to make us feel comfortable with this course of action. It was a steep downhill slope into a corner with no barrier and our whole family was onboard - the video doesn't do it justice. It was very precarious.
Our focus was obviously getting out of the situation safely, promptly and with us much certainty as possible. In our opinion, the safest option was to dig out the ice so we knew we had good traction.
