The Joy of Wild Camping - Donegal edition
Donegal seems to have a much more constructive attitude to people wild camping than many other Irish counties and also has some of the most magnificent scenery on the island of Ireland. Myself and Mary chat about our experiences breakfast on our second morning as we walk the absolutely stunning beach we had camped on the previous evening.
We don't name this location as the danger there is if this video is popular 50 people turn up to this one spot next August bank holiday. Instead have a look at the video I did on using Google satellite view along with street view and photos people have uploaded to scout for possible spots and confirm they are probably suitable (I've not had a single dud i...

Off-road cycling detour on day 6 of cycle touring Spain - Ponferrada to Fabio
Просмотров 15814 дней назад
In essence the plan was to cycle up the eastern side of El Bierzo lake, pass through some pretty villages, visit an Iron Age settlement and then drop back down to #Fabero in preparation for the following day. And it started well, the lake side road to #Congosto had a pretty castle on a hill and in a voice note to a friend about wild camping spots in Ireland I said I was reassured by cyclists co...
Cycling Mullingar to Athlone Old Rail Trail greenway & the Eurovelo2 road to Galway
Просмотров 60721 день назад
There's a 43km cycleway that runs from just west of Mullingar all the way to the River Shannon at Athlone and in fact it even crosses the Shannon on a purpose build cycleway bridge. This is the old Midland Great Western Railway line which closed in 1987. This video is full Timelapse video of the old rail trail greenway followed after crossing the Shannon by following I route I built on Cycle do...
Royal canal cycling Dublin to Mullingar seeking the ghost Eurovelo2 route to Galway
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.28 дней назад
The Royal Canal runs from Dublin to the Shannon and you can now cycle along its banks for more of its length on the Royal Canal Way. In fact Maynooth to the Shannon is continuous and soon that will extend to Lexlip. However nearer Dublin there is the section starting at Castleknock called the Deep Sinking which is unsafe to cycle and looks very unlikely to be improved for years to come. So for ...
Bikepack V Bike Touring - comparing kit I use for camping or hotels on my eBike
Просмотров 672Месяц назад
When you are touring by bicycle the single factor that makes the biggest different is whether you are camping and thus having to carry lots of sleep gear or staying in hotels and this able to travel light. I've done both and in this video I show you have my bike is rigged out, then the considerable amount of extra gear I need if I'm campaign and finally the very much smaller quantity I need whe...
Cycling Leon to Ponferrada along the Camino on day 5 of 2000km ebike tour of north Spain
Просмотров 281Месяц назад
Day 5 saw we set off early from Leon to complete the 108km to Ponferrada on the other side of a pass that peaked at 1500m. I expected this to be a tough day especially as there was 1100m of ascent, the majority of that from 60 to 80km where I ascended to the Iron cross at #Fontaine, almost at 1500m above sea level. I'd just spent two days crossing the planes between Burgos and Leon but today we...
Cycling the Royal Canal from Fairview to Castleknock in Dublin
Просмотров 837Месяц назад
With the opening of the new cycleway along the Royal canal from Fairview to Phibsboro you can now safely cycle from Dorset street to Castleknock, some 8km. There you hit the Deep Sinking which is not safe to cycle but a 3km diversion will take you to Coolmine where you can rejoin the canal bank as it heads for the Shannon. I recorded this in Timelapse so it only takes a few minutes to show you ...
eBiking the Camino to Leon on Eurovelo 3 - day 4 cycle touring Spain
Просмотров 2352 месяца назад
Spain day 4 - to Leon. A tough day with 109km to cover and a lot of the initial stage along the rough eroded Camino way which is tough vibration wise on a bike. Which also means approaching lots of groups of walkers from behind in the middle of nowhere. I slow right down and do a cheerful ‘hola’ but have still had a couple jump out of their skins at the sudden voice from nowhere. One told me he...

Просмотров 3092 месяца назад
The second day on my eBike tour of Spain saw me cycle almost 100km to Burgos with 60km of that being on the Via Verde Santander - Mediterneo - a long distance greenway that follows the abandoned railway line built to link Santander to Valencia. This was part of my 2000km cycle tour of North Spain in May & June 2024 I started that morning from the town of Quioncoces de Yuso. A little used rural ...

I'll be publishing detailed day by day diaries with complete Timelapse footage of the route but here is an initial report back on how it went including road conditions, traf...
