Bikepacking Wales Divide 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 North to South Coast 🌊 🚴 🏔️
My Birthday Weekend was an opportunity for a solo bikepacking adventure in Wales.
Browsing maps and inspired by @KeepSmilingAdventures videos, I created the Wales Divide route and caught the train from Birmingham to Prestatyn to start my adventure at the lighthouse at Talacre beach.
My aim, to ride from the northern most point of Mainland Wales to the Southern most point. In between there will be a parkrun in Ruthin, and some big climbs to ride over!
Will I make it in time to catch my train home on Monday?
Hope you enjoy the film of my adventure, please like and subscribe to our channel: ruclips.net/user/alittleadventuretime
I've put together a blog post which has all the details of my route,...

Arriving the night before, we camped just on the outskirts of Buxton at Lime Tree Park campsite (highly recommended). With the tent pitch...
Walnut Whip or Curly Wurly? 🍫 Thames Path parkrun in Woolwich! 🏃‍♂️🌳

Last parkrunday, we were on a mission! To answer the big question . . . does Thames Path parkrun in Woolwich have a “Walnut Whip” or a “Curly Wurly” on its course? [Watch our video, link in the comments, for our conclusion!] A deal spotted on the Travelodge website earlier in the week had us London-bound, staying just a couple of DLR stops from the parkrun. We almost joined a 55k ultra by mista...

Scaling Beinn Alligin ⛰️ Iona's Munro Adventure
Просмотров 466Месяц назад
Iona had one burning ambition for our time in Scotland this year: to climb a Munro. Last year, we conquered Beinn Dàmh, a Corbett (a mountain over 2,500 feet). This year, the goal was Tom na Gruagaich, part of Beinn Alligin, which stands at 3,024 feet above sea level and is part of the Torridon Mountains. Tom na Gruagaich, meaning "jewelled mountain" or "hill of the maiden," is the southern Mun...
