    Thank you for all your hard work, Josh, and for sharing numerous bike adventures with lovely landscapes, boggy trails, steep ascents, rain, wind, sun, stealth camping, and of course, powered by the legendary breakfast, Ginsters! Speaking of which, I have my eye on the Ginsters Turkey and Bacon limited edition pasty for Boxing Day. Happy Crimbo mate, and looking forward to more adventures in the new year. Take care, Tim 👍

    I am doing part /a section of that route, soon. My next trip is Kemble - the mouth of the Thames back to Clevedon / North Somerset .... which is home (right on the Severn estuary). Summertime - I tend to pick an alternative cost and cycle back home. It is a stretch to say that the start of the Thames is the coast - but this time of year even just getting out is a challenge. Always thoroughly inspiring to watch your adventures and I just sit there glued. Thanks for sharing Josh, all your splendid adventures this year - and looking forward to next years. Happy riding.

    You’re spoiling us! Yet another video! Again beautiful photography and amazing drone shots and creative choice of music, so relaxing😊
    Thanks Josh, really enjoyed this one and those pesky pheasants strike again😂😂😂. Get yourself a 10ml bottle of Olbas oil, and put a few drops on your pillow or sleeping bag and inhale through your nose, it really clears blocked passages. (A strip of lemsip cold and flu capsules, will also help in your first aid kit) Hope you have a Happy Christmas ❤️

    Thank you for another outstanding video. You have a great eye for filming the landscapes. Your narration is spot on and very well done. And the choice of music. Perfect. Maybe next time bring along an inflatable kayak.😅 Just kidding.
    Definitly type 2 fun.
    My bike ride yesterday was cold. 27°F ( -2.8 c ). Still better than sitting on a sofa.
    Merry Christmas and a Glorious New Year.

    I have a quick question if you can answer
    I had pneumonia 6 weeks ago and was advised to stop cycling for 8 weeks
    Any tips on getting back in the saddle after a serious illness

    • @KeepSmilingAdventures
      @KeepSmilingAdventures  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      merry christmas and happy new year, sorry to hear you had pneumonia, whenever i have had time of the bike, i just like to keep it simple. Ride slow, stay close to home and stop regularly.

    Nice adventure! Good relaxing video. If I don’t have gravel bike, do you think I can do bikepacking adventures with MTB bike? 😊

    • @KeepSmilingAdventures
      @KeepSmilingAdventures  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Most definitely, most of the uk is more suited for mtb bikepacking anyway.

  • @alicejwho
    @alicejwho 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Okay, so this is possibly a ridiculous question, but what are those trails? I mean, how do you identify these trails across fields etc? Are they on maps? There must be so many around here (I live in the Chilterns...Wendover). But how would I find them? I mean...I suppose I shouldn't just cycle on people's fields, hehe! I'd appreciate anybody's input on this!

    Hi Josh - Thanks so much for an inspirational pre Christmas treat. Great video as usual. Please don’t be offended but I notice you use ‘them’ when you should be saying ‘those’ - minor grammatical issue but raised as constructive comment (I hope). Think you have a fab channel - my ‘go to’ for bikepacking ideas. 👍

    • @Jonathan_Williams
      @Jonathan_Williams 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Josh, came across your channel earlier in the year. I think your M25 one was the first and have enjoyed many more of your adventures since. I agree with @solway17carlisle that grammatically 'those' should be used instead of 'them'. However, should you decide to change this now the channel will not be the same and I will be forced to unsubscribe. 😉
