Funny old world, I’d eat rabbit in a heartbeat but view pigeon with distain. Yeah boy, The Izzle of Widget is a great place to live & raise a family 🇬🇧😍👏👏👏.
Nothing better than a good chilled out camp as for bike camping not done it much might have to give it a go one day nice night laps Nobby atvb Jimmy 😎😎👍👍
Nice one Nobby, good to see you out on the humble pushbike. I bet you enjoyed a nice shower when you got back home. This heat is too much at the moment. Rain tomorrow:) I could do with a nice bike packing camp
Always good too see you on a solo..... love pigeon too not had any for ages my air rifle is locked in gun cabinet need to cut it out then get a licence for up here in Scotland oh then find somewhere I can pop off a few birds lol ...Atb mucker ...Coops 👍🏻🍻
Aww, man. Stick at it. It definitely gets easier. I like your cycling videos too. Start parking before you get to places like work and cycle the rest of the way and vice versa. I'm on a hardtail MTB and I'm now up to 40 miles. Skinny tyres as my next upgrade.
Great vid, interested to hear your thoughts on bike packing without splashing the cash too much. Something I'd like to do now we re in September and the bugs are gone 🙏
Those man are unbelievable 😍 I used to sound like that in the bedroom 😄 Oooh, a hammock. A lovely hammock. Much better than my ground dwelling beach camp recently. Keep me posted on the podcast. You had me at politically ‘not right’ 😉👍🏼 I was licking the screen at the pigeon pal. The Wild Camping International pan looks a good’un! How’s the hand situation? I need another holiday on the isle of widget ☹️
Bet your poor arse is sore feel sorry for you riding your bike in this weather, I know how you feel when I ride my bike cheers Nobby for awesome video take care 👍👏
Worth blasting out those lungs mate. I’d normally opt for pheasant but I’ll have to try some pigeon. It looks well dry down there! As brown as the meal you made😂
Nice one. Too hot for camping at the minute. As for bikes, they rock. A simple hub motor kit (about £280/300) would transform that bike. Keeps this old bloke going over the hills of South Devon.
I like bikepacking but then I've been riding constantly all my life. But it's tough, my carbon road bike (not suitable for bikepacking)is around 7.5kg but my lightest bikepacking set up is 20kg or as much as 30kg on the off road winter set up I use. So a e bike is a good choice I reckon I've seen a few people now using them to bike pack. I live on the edge of the West Midlands and South Staffs boarder so even though we are in the sticks it's still very urban if that makes sense. I have to travel at least 30 miles just to get into quieter countryside and at least 45 just to get to the base of the Peak District. Wild camping is really tricky as well, plenty of places but either frowned upon or the law is brought into force. I try to find basic campsites and use it as a base to ride from, it is what it is so I just make the most of it.
It would be a bonus over here as a lot of places are too far to yomp to in the time I have. Can't get into cycling but can't say I didn't give it a try
That was a nice little video. it is very visible that you lost a LOT of weight, can't really call you FUB any longer. 😉 I think the E-Bike might be the better option especially for an old fart like me. If you do find a sponsor, put in a word for me, but knowing my luck, I'd get a a racing saddle aka, 6 inch nail to sit on.
Bike packing maybe sh#te but it's a good way to see that beautiful island of yours and make a few miles in the process. Cracking time lapse, I can never be arsed to do one. Podcast maybe the way to go, you don't get any prettier with age.
Thank you for sharing your adventure! Cheers!
No worries Dan, cheers for enduring the wafflings of a fat lad
Very nice, you are the beans!
hat off to you well done 😁😁
That owl was trying to figure out what the heck was in his spot. At least he didn't let one fly on ya.
Nice spot to hang, and a cool time lapse.
Lovely spot, even worth the cycle
Funny old world, I’d eat rabbit in a heartbeat but view pigeon with distain. Yeah boy, The Izzle of Widget is a great place to live & raise a family 🇬🇧😍👏👏👏.
Pigeon is a quality bit of tucker
@@Nobby77 last time I put a knife in a pigeon was high school biology class 😬……..and liver makes me vomit 🤮. You can have my ration of both 🤪
Nothing better than a good chilled out camp as for bike camping not done it much might have to give it a go one day nice night laps Nobby atvb Jimmy 😎😎👍👍
Dont do it Jim, enjoy the camp instead
@@Nobby77 Roney used his bike to get to camp this weekend he said it felt like having razor blades shoved up his bum 🤣🤣🤣
Pigeon sounds good. I must try it one day. Don't know if you noticed but at 15:40 a blade of grass caught fire.
Nobby from some of your earliest vids to now man you’ve really took into shape. Looking great these days mate!
Cheers dude, long way to go tho
I think your going to be doing a few more outings on the bicycle mate, Cos I absolutely loved it and it made me like and comment 😉👍🏻😜
It's staying in the shed pmsl
Nice one Nobby, good to see you out on the humble pushbike. I bet you enjoyed a nice shower when you got back home. This heat is too much at the moment. Rain tomorrow:)
I could do with a nice bike packing camp
I reckon it'll be my last outing on a bike Sandy. Unless I break and get an ebike
Have to say Nobby, from when I first started watching you when you did the C2C to now you have lost a shed load of weight mate.... Good for you!!!
Cheers Morio. Still got plenty to go tho
Always good too see you on a solo..... love pigeon too not had any for ages my air rifle is locked in gun cabinet need to cut it out then get a licence for up here in Scotland oh then find somewhere I can pop off a few birds lol ...Atb mucker ...Coops 👍🏻🍻
Catapult will do the job Coops
Your right about pigeon tasting like steak when rare and liver when over cooked. Cooked some myself up the woods a few years back. Great vid Nobby.
Love pigeon
@@Nobby77 I like it better than steak.
🕊 😋 👍
Aww, man. Stick at it. It definitely gets easier. I like your cycling videos too. Start parking before you get to places like work and cycle the rest of the way and vice versa. I'm on a hardtail MTB and I'm now up to 40 miles. Skinny tyres as my next upgrade.
Oh, and I'm 46, soon to be 47.
Glad you enjoy it mate. The KAW trip put me off for life. 4 days at 55 mile a day sucked
@@Nobby77 going by the hundreds of videos I've watched, 40 miles per day seems to be the sweet spot.
@@Nobby77That's a crazy amount to me. Fully loaded.
It felt crazy as a non cyclist lol. But managed it bust rib n'all
Tried to bike thing a couple times I hated it. You're a better man than me.
Bike suck
ebikes heavy as be a pain lift over gates & fences. Nice hammock spot.
Worth the extra lift if it takes the pain our of hills
The IoW's answer to Lance Armstrong. But far cleaner. Very enjoyable, as ever.
Cheers Don, I'm no bleedin Armstrong tho. 20 years of training and I'd still be moaning about hills
Wicked
good vid m8
For a man who hates cycling , you do like getting out on it 😂 stick in pal 🚲👍
Cant say I never tried mate lol. Really ain't for me
Great vid, interested to hear your thoughts on bike packing without splashing the cash too much. Something I'd like to do now we re in September and the bugs are gone 🙏
simple, don't do it. its easy mate cheap rack, bungees and usual budget camping kit
Time lapse was fantastic. Could even make out a few meteors striking the atmosphere.
Stunning night sky
Those man are unbelievable 😍
I used to sound like that in the bedroom 😄
Oooh, a hammock. A lovely hammock. Much better than my ground dwelling beach camp recently.

How’s the hand situation?
I need another holiday on the isle of widget ☹️
Always hammocks for the win. Gis a shout if you're over so I can tip my hat
@@Nobby77 I certainly will. I’d also try and get the missus to let me have a day camp or overnighter with you to 😉👍🏼
I have the same Topeak panniers racks and bags on my bike
They've lasted well tbf
But do u have the matching front Topeka bag like I have . Haha
Na, I did have a toll but now just stick with bungees lol
24:23 Christ, I've never seen it that dry before. Always been green from my trips up there.
Proper dry
Bet your poor arse is sore feel sorry for you riding your bike in this weather, I know how you feel when I ride my bike cheers Nobby for awesome video take care 👍👏
It too bleedin hot Andrew
Worth blasting out those lungs mate. I’d normally opt for pheasant but I’ll have to try some pigeon. It looks well dry down there! As brown as the meal you made😂
Like getting a sweat on to enjoy camp but bikes can poke it
Lee, I'm just checking, how do you feel about cycling? 🤣 I guess you won't be doing King Alfred's way again, but joining Sandy this time. ATB Big Dave
Hard pass on the KAW

Fair play Brian. I'll consider it, but it'll take a lot to convince me

get an ebike great fun and makes riding easy and enjoyable
Anything would be better

Got no hope of an ebike sponser mate, the only way I'm doing it again I reckon. (Maybe a few more tries)

Not built for hills? You’re not built for short shorts mate.. and I’d say thrown together at best.. happy biking : )
Man legs
Your poor arse ah haha.
Top bloke

Piles are cushion.
Fair play for your charity coastal ride, amazing achievement lad.
Respect where it's due.
Cheers Andy, was a good little adventure
Bike packing maybe sh#te but it's a good way to see that beautiful island of yours and make a few miles in the process.
Cracking time lapse, I can never be arsed to do one.
Podcast maybe the way to go, you don't get any prettier with age.
Cheers Si. Podcast should help me offend as many people as possible all at once
So good that you could find a shirt to match your legs. ❤️
Pmsl, I wear shorts with no cream all the time still pasty
hotter than a arabs flip flop
Think I’d need oxygen ,your a better man than me that’s why god invented motorcycles
I would have taken it in a heartbeat. Only trouble with motorbikes is your limited to spots.
never ate pigeon ate monkey 🙄🙄watch screaming delkims the man for the pigeon watch his channel 🤣🤣
Pigeon are awesome
You wanna look out ffs heart attack material
I agree, everytime I think I'm fit the bike proves me wrong
