    I laughed when you pointed out the dry stone walls (probably no more than 200 years old) were hadrians wall - Worth visiting Vindolanda if you're up that way again, roman fort and live archaeological dig

    As someone who lived and cycled in the Netherlands for 5 years and who recently moved to the UK, I would be happy to see that path when I go for a gravel ride haha! UK roads and paths will humble you completely, unbelievable the stuff you find here, especially when comparing it with NL. Hope you have fun guys!

    Antonine also built a wall- up nearer to Glasgow- think it was about 200yrs after Hadrian.

    Hi, cool video again! I saw your damage with your frondrack and I also recognize the discussion about whether or not to use panniers are behind. It maybe not looking cool, but if you go out for a longer period of time with a tent, cooking gear, etc. and everything with you and the weather is a bit colder, those panniers in the back come in handy! I just used the Divide from Old Man Mountain when I cycled the Pieterpad last week. Works perfectly and can be used both front and rear on any bike. Maybe something for you guys? Greetings from Holland!

    • @Fernwee
      @Fernwee  ปีที่แล้ว +1
