    amazing recommendations. I was inclined to believe UK mainland didn't have any good routes but this is very cool! Will try them all out with God's will.

    Cheers Josh for the OCW shout out! Glad you enjoyed it in March, lots of people have been riding it since in the sun.
    Really hope you get a chance to ride the double divide at some point, (Thats the Badger and Second City Divide), although have some elements that are similar to the GNT are a designed a bit like the OCW in regards to keeping good flow of a route. Definitely one of the Camino!
    Cheers mate!

    Great vid, really like to check a few of these out. Local to me is Peddars Way, a real favourite of mine. Lots of good pubs along the route, nd ends with a camp on the beach on the North Norfolk coast.ATB

      I ride the pedders way June just gone.
      My bike didn't like the sandy section but a lovely ride.
      Camped just behind castle acre and then at some plantation place ( can't remember the name ) about 20 miles or so from Thetford.

    I've been loving your videos in the month or so since I discovered your channel, but one video you seem to be missing is a beginner's guide to what to pack on your first bikepacking trip. My first gravel bike is arriving in a month or so and I'd love your advice on what to pack for the first night away.

    • @KeepSmilingAdventures
      @KeepSmilingAdventures  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey, glad you are enjoying the channel :D. I have thought about doing a video like that but there really is not a right or wrong when it comes to what to take its all very personal and everyone can and can't live without certain things. You really only learn what works for you after each trip and it's an ongoing ever changing process.
      Here is a playlist with some videos that may help a bit though to give you some ideas th-cam.com/play/PLWlIhD2zEcrIvPjOks79okQWGfTzQJKFI.html

    cheers - some fine suggestions, but possibly one back might be to just turn down the ketamin style floaty music as it was a bit of a struggle to hear the commentary. some grand choices
