What a GREAT video and it's been a real pleasure to watch. Having stayed at a few campsites along the West coast of France with my tribe, I recognized a few of the places on your film. Great effort by all of your family and this is something they'll treasure for years to come. By the way, you all personify what I would call a 'typical and somewhat eccentric English family' and you have done England proud. Thank you.
Ian Healy thank you for making such a lovely short film, big congrats on the achievement itself and the quality of the film editing. I hope you all can enjoy more adventures again.
What a fantastic film to watch! Well done to you all for completing such a character building experience, especially for your children and unforgettable family time together! 😊
Really inspiring film and great to see the children enjoying themselves so much - a terrific achievement to look back on! I rode from London to Birmingham along the Grand Union Canal last summer with my 12-year-old grandson and he loved it. It's not easy finding a safe - and engaging - long distance ride which is suitable for children, but this looks ideal. Plans are already forming! Thank you for all the work you've put into this - it's greatly appreciated!
Reminds me of cycling with my parents in France in the late 70s, including the revolts and crashes. As kids all me and my brother wanted was a canp site with a swimming pool...nothing changes😂😂 Wonderful film and great memories.
Gift of a lifetime for Sol, Roo and Merlin to learn they can achieve anything they want in life! Such amazing young gentlemen with such a beautiful family. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏻
Ha ha you are so courageous taking the whole family..My wife and I cycled from Brussels to saint Malo last July, and at times it was very stressful for the same reasons , for example in Saint Malo all the campings were full so we cycled out in the country and wild camped near a chateau, the owners came out and invited us in and gave us breakfast in the morning..😅
My brother and I bike trek/camp in the U.S. so I totally appreciate every day as an evolution of grit, planning, morale management, personal satisfaction, surprises, companionship/teamwork, and joy. I saw all of that in this charming, engaging video. Brava to all of you!
Watched it with my wife. We have a 9 month old daughter and we're planning out future cycle trips. We've got Land's end to John O'groats planned for this Spring/Summer. Maybe we'll head to France for Autumn and follow this route. It's great to see families can still be quite active and still have grand adventures together. I hope to be cycling with my kids when they are as old as yours, and cycling with my grandkids too! My wife also wants to make videologs of our trips for future reference.
Loved your journey. I visited many places as you touring France in my car camping with my family 35 years ago. So many good memories. 2014 I go back with my bike car camping . 😂
EV1 looks like a great route. A real achievement for you all to manage and get to the end in one piece! Very well put together - thanks for sharing with us.
A really impressive and inspirational achievement by what looks to be a lovely family. Thank you very much for recording and editing your journey: your film was both enjoyable and informative. Hats off to you all especially those at either end of the age range, as well as those cycling on when unwell or injured!
Hello all, I've just watched your account of the holiday. It was very moving. You all are an example of what a family can be. The boys all reflect the parenting that all should aspire to. Most of all amazing example by Nanny. Superb to watch.
Phenomenally incredible achievement for every one of you. What amazing memories you've all made. It was inspirational, funny, and so entertaining. All those skills will serve the lads well in their futures - motivation, determination, problem solving, Team building and the list goes on and on. Loved it. Will be watching more of your family videos. Hope you got the champagne out when you all got home 🥂🍾 😊👍
You're family dynamic is amazing, I have two boys but sadly I didn't do anything like this with them (but wish I had). Loved watching the adventure unfold, thanks for sharing, HNY!
Really loved that the family bike toured together. I too average about 20-30 miles a day, and yours is the first vlog I've seen that is similar to mine. Usually biketouring vlogs are 70-100km, with hardly any rest days. My plans are to visit both The Netherlands and Germany at a leisurely pace, taking in the small towns and regional food.
A lovely heartwarming trip. I live in France and know the route well. All credit to your youngster pedalling along the Nantes Brest canal. A lack of hills but it can get a bit boring and tiring. Your stop to let Mum and Nan prepare breakfast was almost opposite a property we rent out. Hotels and campsites in July and August are usually pretty full, especially near the coast. If you can go inland a few km then you have a chance. Unfortunately many sites now don't take tourers and specialise in cabins. The last two years have seen temperatures of 40°, far too hot to cycle in. Thanks for sharing the family's adventure and of course credit to Nan.
First off you have my sub,second my husband showed me your lovely video,as i was nervous of the roads in the uk,and we are going to france and spain for 8 weeks soon.This video was so well done and planned.Most of the time i go on the fly and book as i go,and most places you have visited i have been to last year and loved it so much am doing it again in may .Just wanted to say thank you for such a very well done video. debs xx 👏
Tremendous trip something that your grandchildren and everyone in the family will remember with love. A big hug to all. I loved seeing it, it reminded me of a trip we made from Caracas to Kukenam and we reached the edge with Brazil, 4 adults and 3 teenagers, a trip that I will never forget and only the families that have made those trips know what that represents. beautiful trip
What an experience for you all, great to watch as well! Having cycled south from Santander myself through the mountains to Avila I can appreciate your trials and tribulations!
Now that’s a proper family trip, the children will tell their grandchildren about this, they may even do the trip with their children and grandchildren
Thanks so much for sharing! Quite an adventure and what an opportunity to share life in such a great way. I find it quite a challenge how to deal with a camera let alone a flying one. But like they say:"You live you learn." Or crash 😊. Atb, from Holland with respect!
This was such an amazing video and trip! I am blown away of all the adventures you had and the friend/familyship. But I can only imagine that it was alo hard work to organize everything and pack, and cook and ride. Such a great adventure for the boys! just wow!
Really enjoyable watch. Over the years we've been to most of the places you cycled through which made it even more interesting. Great to see you get to grips with the drone, they add so much. Thought you handled the mutiny (23:30) very adroitly !
I really enjoyed the video, well done to everyone of all ages. I’m in the middle of planning this very trip for 2024 so also found the details in your trip very helpful. I was interested by your tent setups, I believe one was a big Agnes but couldn’t work out the other tents? Trying to decide on a tent for myself. Anyway thanks for taking the time to film, edit and post this video.
Well done, an epic ride! Great family memories for sure! Thanks for sharing your adventure, the video is entertaining and well put together. The drone flying skills improved nicely over the trip as well.
Congratulations on your journey! A great family adventure and achievement for everyone. I hope you all enjoy many more. I also enjoyed the same trip but in the opposite direction in 2021. Joe UK.
Have to say I really enjoyed watching that, you are all a great funny bunch. I stumbled on your video as I want to go Calais to Dieppe with my boys for 10 days. Would be great if you done a video on the kind of equipment that you took and where to get it all as I'm none the wiser! Also a little about your bikes and kinds of repairing kits you took also. I have to say the camera work was brilliant like a mini film, well done you!
The wife and l did London to Venice six years ago and we gave up on warm showers I’d hosted many a time back in Australia and got no replies on our trip so when we got back I stopped hosting , it annoyed me that all those French and Italians that stayed with us couldn’t be bothered commenting on our profile so I suspect it looked like we were takers and not returning the favour. Look like a great route you took I’m inspired to go back .
Hi, really impressed with you families achievement. Well done to everyone. I am planning to undertake the same journey starting in the middle, late April this year. Would you be able to share your routes from St Malo to where you picked up the velodyssee route around Redon. Crossing the river and heading through Dinan looked like a great route. Thanks David
Thanks for sharing this. I know what an epic task this must have been. Love the multi generational team. I'm hoping to get my family and maybe some friends over to explore France by bike next year and we are not particularly avid bikers. This a great appetizer. Do you mind sharing rough dates you were on the trails? Thanks again, -H
Fantastic effort, trying to persuade mine to do something similar is very difficult!! When did you complete the ride? TH-cam is showing as 9 months old but that definitely isn't February!!?
What an absolutely amazing and heart warming video. You are very lucky to have such close and loving family. But I have to as in all seriousness, where did you guys potty and poop during the day. I am sure each person had to go on their own schedule. So just curious how you all ha died that?
You should build up to it. Start with just one overnight, then a little more. We did 200 miles of the Hebridean Way when our youngest was 8 but he'd done a lot of camping and biking by then. Have fun!9+
I'm cycling the otherway Bilbao to Hendaye by train then up. The bit you did from Nantes, was that using canal and river please? Seems the best way beit convoluted. Thank you
Hi Alex, yes pretty sure that was mostly all canal towpath. We chose that as a bit more direct than the official EV1. Straight forward but a bit dusty.
The video needs to be MUCH longer, but awesome you guys did this. Also it would have been great if you had shown and detailed all the gear you all took, how much each item cost you and from where you bought it, total cost of the travel with a breakdown. Also the miles displayed under the days is very confusing. Sometimes it says miles to xyz, othertimes just miles. No idea if it is total miles travelled that day or what. You should have done a much better job with that and included more info. Should have been something like this: Day 1 Miles completed at end of day: Miles remaining to next destination: Miles exepcted to comeplete:
Hats off to you for keeping that lot fed! its truly inspiring just to watch, dare I say it, just an ordinary family achieving something quite remarkable. loved the drone shots , hated the background music, it was simply too loud. That's not a criticism, just a critique!
Hi, really enjoyed your trip! We are currently undertaking the same route on a tandem, we would really appreciate the details of the bus journey to Santander, where did you take the bus from? Any advice would be greatly appreciated 😊
@@pipando we got the bus from Irun and it goes directly.. even though they take bikes the drivers don't like to! You have to take it apart and box it. Book it on their website
My hubby just finishing the Velodysee, so it’s been nice to see the places he’s been travelling through. Can you tell me, is it easy to find the Alsa bus stop in Irún and do you have any idea if there is an Alsa office there to buy a bike box? Any advice gratefully accepted as he arrives on Wed to get the bus to Santander and we are struggling to find any information on the Alsa Office ? Thank you!
From memory it's easy enough to find bus station. Finding a bike box could be harder. We had to make them from cardboard from supermarkets etc. They can be grumpy about bikes even when you have booked them
Beautiful. Might have missed it but how did you find the possible campsites each night? Did you just predict how far you'd travel and then google that town for a campsite? We are going in the summer of 2024 with two teens and hoping to avoid the full campsite scenario as much as possible. This video has been helpful and inspiring...thank you!
Hi Aimee, in the busier parts we tried to book campsites online a couple of nights in advance. In some places there was a choice of 3 or more fairly close together and we would take a chance that one had places. After 22 Aug It is not as busy. Have a great time!
En España, parece mentira, aún es un problema transportar bicicletas en transporte público. No ponen más que inconvenientes. Enviado la facilidad en otros países y es una pena pq aquí hay rutas increíbles
One year I took my nephew who was 12 on a cross state 6 day trip. When he went out for football in September the coach, said to the team. You guys are out of shape sat around played computer games all summer. the girls volley ball team is faster than you. My nephew said “ I biked across Michigan, what did you do?”

Absolutely fantastic a family doing that epic trip well done to you all and especially the young lad who crashed and soldiered on 😊
Very inspirational I hope to do something like this with my children/grandchildren one day
right ?! I don't even have kids and this makes me want to have some ! lol

Family cycle touring at its very best.
Really impressed by your family. Well done.

Congrats!🎉

Thank you Inge
well done guys!

also appreciate you sharing the personal details and challenges of family travel.
We started end of July and finished Beginning of September 2022
wow.. this alone will make me want to get married and have kids just so i can take a family bicycle trip down the coast of France ! lol
Fantastic effort, trying to persuade mine to do something similar is very difficult!!

Great video but helmets are much better protecting heads than panniers!
Where are you stay? Are u feel difficult to stay at night time?
Campsites every night as shown in film
what time of year was this trip taken ? the weather looks good for the most part
August. A bit hot at times!
Think of the “what I did on my summer vacation “ paper these boys can write
One year I took my nephew who was 12 on a cross state 6 day trip. When he went out for football in September the coach, said to the team. You guys are out of shape sat around played computer games all summer. the girls volley ball team is faster than you. My nephew said “ I biked across Michigan, what did you do?”
