I LOVE England! Such a beautiful country. I had the honour to visit England 3 times. And the cool weather most of the time is also very nice. Irma from the Netherlands
Come back Irma, always welcome :)
Thanks Irma I just wish we had your off road cycle track system and it would be perfect. I've been to the Netherlands many times on the waterways that's nice. Love to you our close Neighbours and Friends.❤😊
I'm finkink you had your fermals on in case of funder.

Did you stay in the South?
Hi Andy! It's been great to meet you two on your way through the other day. I'm glad to find out you got there!! And happy to hear you've liked our place and thank you for mentioning us. Hopefully we'll attract more of your kind :) We'll be working on putting in a little bike charging area once our new wash house is finished to make things easier. Really great what you did there. Please come back one day!
Have a lovely summer full of more fun adventures! All the best

I'm really impressed with your site. I'll have to arrange a trip and stay with you 😁
Hi Andy and Mark beautiful ride amazing scenery,the thunder storm was something else, love the cows congrats on finishing your ride thanks for sharing
You know it’s going to be a great video when this dynamic duo get together. Sweating just watching you guys fair play 👏🏻😂
Thank you Andy & Mark...what an awesome ride. Enjoyed every bit. ❤
Great video Andy, loved the change of scenery and adventure, thanks for bringing us all along.
Thanks Andy for amazing video with Mark and awesome scenery been there its a great place cheers Andy and Mark for a fantastic video 👍
Cheers Andrew :)
What's the site called again??
That was superb video Andy/Mark, really enjoyed that. Stunning scenery, I'll bet you'll both kip for a week after that.
Great video as always Andy! I did an e bike trip last summer in Devon with a mate and a borrowed bike. To be perfectly honest I hated it. You're watching the battery level draining the whole time. Your whole day has to be planned around where and when you can recharge your bike. It just seems to be a lot of hassle compared to a regular bike which will never run out of power as long as you keep stopping at those sausage and bacon food vans to refuel!
Easy solution... take a second battery. This new technology isn't for everyone LOL
the hedgerows! oh my....we don't have those here. thanks for sharing the beautiful countryside.
The English countryside is beautiful, and what a great way to see it! Mark is hysterical. I have never ridden an E bike, but I love cycling. Great video.
Well done Andy and Marc! Love the scenery - really enjoy your videos Andy. Cheers from Philly!
This is so different from your usual videos. I love it! Such beautiful country over there!
Isn't it funny when we were young we could and most of us did ride bikes all day up and down hills. Then bam you're older hare supposed to be stronger and yet riding a bike is harder😂 love the video, thank you so much
I've watched this at least 5 times, i absolutely love the adventure films you make Andy, it makes me keen to go out and do this myself. I hope you have plans to make more of these soon 😀
🦘🇦🇺.Hi Andy and Mark. Another wet night 🌙 😜. At least you had some comfort .awesome scenery 👌👍🤩.
What hard ride even on a e-bike. U and mark mashed it. Thanks for sharing your adventure Andy. Maxxx
Brilliant video! That thunderstorm looked epic! I bet those beers tasted 10 times better too! Seemed like you had great weather though, not too hot! Well done for achieving this right after our 3 day canoe trip! You must be absolutely knackered! 🎉👏
Keep up the great work and videos Andy. Thank you so much that you take us along with you on your adventures and camping Andy.
Love the video!
I'm taking an ebike 1550 miles, and building a custom wikes bicycle trailer kit for my 3 dogs to travel in.
Starting in a few weeks.
Thanks for the video.
Thank you for taking us on your adventure!!! So enjoyable!
Few people realize that cows really appreciate a friendly geeting😊
Yet another great video from Andy and mark ..nothing better after a long day at work than watching one of your videos with a nice cold beer ..keep them coming and looking forward to what the summer brings for you guys
Nice one Andy! Mark is grumpy in this one 😂
🤭
Andy hardly ever stops smiling, and Mark hardly ever smiles
Can't wait to watch the video,
Thanks Andy and Mark
I love Kent's channel, which always makes me want to go camping, but it's too hot here in Texas.
Yup, until October at least. 2 weeks if February is too cold.
3 digits right now! Not fit for man nor beast! Lolz 😅
Missing your videos! Hope all is well!!!
🙁
Kudos to you both mate, superb effort and a thoroughly enjoyable video.
Well done both of you. That storm was a good one, I was camping up in the Surrey Hills.
That was awesome… Great views. Thank you for sharing
What a great trip thanks for sharing Andy
Thank you for taking us along on your bike camping trip! Nice one! Cheers!
cool trip looks like nice views. the more you do this the better you will get, you see what you did good and bad. looking forward to the next one
That was a very enjoyable watch! Thank you 😊
Thanks Andy GREAT VIDEO!!!
Thank you Andy & Mark more please
It’s amazing how as we get older destinations get farther apart, what was a short ride becomes an all day struggle
Awesome video Andy. Over 120 miles is a decent distance to do a trip. Very enjoyable. 👍
Really enjoyed that Andrew, great vid. All the ingredients were there, E-bikes, trail and camping trip. As a positive comment, that format had it all, your e-bikes review, kit that goes on e-bikes and camping equipment plus the pleasure of seeing that wonderful part of our rich and varied country. Well done!
Awesome stuff guys, well done for that epic ride and taking the time to film it.
He wouldn't get paid if he didn't film it!
Andy I so enjoy your camping trips--thank you for sharing --Ron from Virginia USA
Excellent guys, great video
Hi Andy, thank you for such an interesting video. We always like watching your videos. Looking forward to seeing more of your exciting videos. Love every video you do. Well done 😊
Beautiful scenery! I always enjoy your videos. Would love to visit one day.
Thank you.
Your vids are a brilliant escape
Amazing video really enjoyed watching you and mark.That looked a really good adventure and testing the bikes 100 miles that is knackering great video👍👍👍👍
Great video guys. Looking forward to the next one. Best wishes. ✌️
Excellent video and loved the 2 of you and super adventure. Hope to see more videos with the pair of you doing something else soon. Cheers
Thanks for the video Andy.
Cheers buddy
You guys work well together, good to see. Have fun.
My dear Sir, this is a stunning video. The fact that you are travelling around Kent, rather than the Himalayas or Kalahari is just so refreshing and interesting.
I can't thank you enough for such a refreshing and entertaining contribution. The fact that you had stopped at a snack van within the first four miles, is British beyond parody 🤣
Great vid lads thoroughly enjoyed it keep up the great work
Stunning views. Oh to be in England in the summer.
Love watching you from Australia
I liked this so much I have already watched it twice and even my wife got interest in your trip. Keep up the good work Andy!
I bought a Jansno X50 because I was not sure about going to an ebike. It now has a trailer, led wheel lights, olites all over and with a spare battery fully charged, my 50 watt 1.8 ah solar panel on top of the trailer gives me another 20-30 miles depending on terrain on a full sun day
I am so glad I decided to watch. It was a lot of fun Andy, Marc.Will be really nice if and when camp sites, pubs and others realise that charging facilities turn their location into a destination. Be well both.😉
What a great video! Totally enjoyed it… What an accomplishment. 🤗
Well done guys nice ride and adventure
You both work hard on these trips. Always an interesting watch. Well done
I stayed at the secret campsite last summer, loved it there. Thank you for sharing! I would love to do this on a e bike myself, one day!
Looking forward to your next all nighter Andy. Take care.
I know how you guys feel , did the SDW many years ago when I lived on my XC Kona……. Shagged to the bone is how my mate put it, another great video cheers for the memories.
Well done guys 😊
Great Andy and mark great video
Thank you , Andy .

Best intro music yet!
Awesome as always Andy. Congratulations to you and Mark for completing the 100 miles
Great job! Sure did Look tiresome even though you had the Ebikes 😬😳.
Thank y'all for sharing this awesome adventure.
Thank you, Andy, for all the hard work and time you put into these videos. They are truly top-notch.
KEEP ADVENTURING
GOD BLESS Y'ALL
🤗HUGS🤗
Andy, always the best
Why thank you :)
Thanks for a great vid. For the last nine years I've been living just 5 miles or so from the SDW, and have walked a few nearby stretches of it several times. Great to see what the rest of it looks like. Now subscribe to your excellent channel :)
Really enjoyed this vlog. Would love to see more like this. Well done!
So awesome! Love you both!!
I enjoyed this video. The country is so beautiful. ❤ Thank you for sharing.
Awesome adventure, looks like a great trip, thanks for the video 👌👍
Great vlog ebikes open up so much for the camping crowd,so much more fun than walking with a heavy backpack,and you can go so much further,well done andy👍
It a beautiful part of the world. When we travel down to Bournemouth along the A34 to where it meets the M3 I always feel this area that is what I think of when I think rural England. All around there is fabulous
Fantastic effort there lads - every respect!! I've done Manchester to Blackpool for Christies twice. 62 miles, the ride, though had additional mileage on both time, so ended up more like 80 miles, oh my bum was wrecked haha!!! As always Andy, thanks so much for an amazing video, great to see you out with Marc and enjoying yourselves. Result with the bacon and sausage shack, get in there with that ketchup lol.
Fun!!! Thanks for taking us along!! ❤ would love to see the little towns, pubs, stores etc sometime if you can do that it would be fun to see!! ❤😊 Sara in Seattle
Love your content 👍👍 thanks for sharing this epic adventure with us God Bless you
Thank you very much :)
Music is wonderful ❤
And Mark is my fave companion of yours ..
I'm late to the party as I'm binging your videos to get me over my days at work.
..and very helpful they are too !
Well done lads, great video Andy
Wow great camping road video really enjoyed it beautiful views from all over..
Nice one Andy 👍
This is just FAB!
Remarkable effort, especially given the bikes and navigation gear you had!
Great channel have so much fun and relaxing while watching
Beautiful countryside!
Wicked Video Andy !
Wow! Congratulations, that was a test, a real test, not going to lie, that was a challenge on steroids that one! Well done guys!
The whole time I watched this, I was thinking about the movie 'An American Werewolf in London'. I hope you stayed away from the moors...
Haha
Definitely the way I would like to do the SDW. Cracking adventure Andy, cheers.
