Your Dad is a role model still on his bike at 88. That’s tremendous, well done both of you for another Epic adventure together. It’s always nice to cycle with somebody else, but cycling with family is super special. 😀
Hi, I watched a nice chat on the channel I follow today.The brand of bicycle used by the guest person is BROMPTHONS .We really like your videos , they are level like you , and the number of channels is almost nonexistent. All the memories - I want to watch your videos. I wish you a nice day , goodbye ,
In a world where it feels there is so much bad news you never fail to remind us just how lovely life can be if we look to the joy of ordinary. Your choice of music 🎶 🎼 🎵, as always, perfect. Good to see your dad out again 🤗
Meant to say - thank you for the train and bus planners. I’ve just had a look and a bit of a play with them - genius! What great tools for use with a Brompton and days out. Thanks again 🙂
Thank you for all of your video's. I am enjoying them so much. At the moment I'm sitting home for awhile, after an accident with the bicycle. So I got plenty of time to watch them all. They are very inspiring, and I can't wait to get back on the bicycle. I just love it, that you also show in your video's, that you just can be. I hope you can make many more tours, also with your dad, I have respect for both of you, one for age, and the other to get stronger during illness.I wish you two all the best!
Hello Ineke! thank you for the lovely message! I am so glad you are enjoying the films, and I hope you are back on the road and enjoying cycling again soon. Best wishes!
What's not to love. Great pub lunches, bimbling about, getting some exercise whether in light rain or pleasant sunshine, listening to bird song and exploring splendid history. Absolutely brilliant, in every way. Thanks so much bringing me along! ATB
What a lovely day adventure with Dad on Bromptons! I have a new hero in your dear father! I retire in Aug. '25 from the uni at age 67, and I recently acquired a Brompton Explore M6R in racing green on which I hope to take many adventures during my twilight years! Cheers! Loved and subscribed!
Wow what can I say your dad is Amazing it just shows the power of exercise. I myself am 71 I workout with weights,walk and cycle everywhere.hope if I get to 88 I'm like your dad a true inspiration as are you fantastic.
How lovely to travel with your dad on your Bromptons and visiting some marvelous old churches with Angels in the roof rafters. I vicariously enjoyed traveling with you both while cycling on my exercise bike in Seattle, WA. It was fun and you set a nice pace! Jenny 🚴🚴♂🚴♀
Thank you for another lovely video, Susanna. I'm sure you don't need me to tell you how lucky you are to still have your Dad around, to be able to go on an "adventure" with......
Wonderful, gentle-paced, affectionate trip. Like most of the comments, it is delightful to see the relationship you have with your dad and what an advert for the adaptability of Bromptons for all ages. Keep making these videos, Susanna, they have a wonderful feel-good factor.
What a wonderful travelogue. Thank you so much for posting. Your trip planning and historical research skills are amazing. I’m so happy that your dad comes right along and appears to enjoy clicking away every km on his Brompton. Looking forward to seeing your further adventures.
aw Jim that is a nice thing to say. I wanted to say something in reply but I didn't know what to say, so I didnt reply for ages. just thank you for the lovely comment and for watching
Lovely video of your family time, your dad is great for his age excellent. Beautiful Norfolk with it's lovely churches and great transport links, and this is where the Brompton comes into it's own wonderful, thanks for sharing and take care 👏 👋 .
Lovely too see how much enjoyment you can get without charging about..and so simple with bus and Brompton. Your dad is inspiring...maybe I still have a few more years of cycling ahead!
Thank you so much for visiting Blickling! It was a pleasure to meet you. My colleague told me I was on here so I had to check it out. Please come back one day when we are open. I’d love to buy you a hot drink and a snack 😘
@@jasonary491 Hi Jason! Aw great you saw this! I was gonna try and send a thanks to the estate office and hope it found you! And you beat me to it! Thank you for welcoming us! Best wishes!
These trips are so precious and I was amazed to see your dad to go up the stairs. Thank you so much for taking us with you. The UK has so much to offer!
We’ve just discovered your channel and really enjoyed this great video. As others have said your dad is an inspiration to us all, and you of course. Travelling in the way you do is great to see, we live in Norfolk so it was interesting to see where you stayed and how you planned your journey. We have so many wonderful old churches in our county - it’s s great idea for anyone visiting. The website you mentioned for bus routes is a great tip, handy for us walkers /hikers too. We’ve spent many hours searching online for this sort of thing. Looking forward to going back and watching some of your older videos,Tim & Selina
Charming as ever. Hope I can still cycle when I'm 88. What a lovely time spent with your Dad. Thanks for sharing and for the very useful bus and train route planning info 🙏
again, and as always, thank you for taking us along. It was lovely, and so heartwarming to see you and your dad having such a wonderful time - rain and all! I appreciated your sharing your planning tools/sites. Here in the USA I am green with envy of your mass transit systems - trains and buses and trails. You both look very well - please stay that way!
I guess everything is all on just such a different scale in the US... yeh in the UK the bus network etc is far from fantastic really but good to see that where they are investing in making the buses better, people do seem to be using them - I found out later that that bus service we took had recently been increased to one bus every half hour using central government funding. And it was great to see it pretty busy. So that for some people for some journeys they can leave the car at home, and people who dont have a car can get about. Anyway! interesting. Thanks for writing!
I do so love trips away like that. Pottering around the country lanes to see what's round the next corner. I know your Dad doesn't want to hear it but I still highly recommend he tries an electric bike for more hilly areas. It really isn't cheating though it wouldn't give you the flexibility of using the buses as the Brompton's do. I look forward to the next video x
A lovely video holiday with your Dad and you on Brompton’s. It just shows when you combine with public transport you can get quite far. Thanks for showing us the lovely architecture in the churches
Hi Susanna, you’ve done it again! I loved this film, I am a British expat in Australia and I have been here 14 years since I left my adopted home of Ipswich. Whilst Suffolk and Norfolk have quite a rivalry I know most of the places you visited and it filled me with nostalgia for East Anglia. What a lovely break with your Dad, what a legend I hope I am riding as well at 88! I really enjoyed this video. Well done, I really look forward to seeing your videos. All the best, Matt.
Lovely vid. I’m fortunate to live in Norfolk, and it’s a great place for cycling. Know several of the places you visited very well. Glad you both enjoyed it.
Lovely Susanna, glad to see you back complete with superdad! I love your camera work, funny angles but that life. And the lovely churches make me want to go to Norfolk. Thanks so much.
Hey Susanna - Nice to see you out with your Dad again. He’s an inspiration. I don’t know whether it’s just your editing, or luck, or what but you always seem to travel along pretty quiet, traffic free roads! Here in rural Devon there always seems to be a car behind you wanting to get past and the road surfaces are shot. Gravel, pot holes, debris etc. I’m embarrassed to say that I’m loving the electric bike! Love those Angel churches too. They are massive for relatively out of the way churches. The variety of church architecture across Britain is fascinating. It’s great that your videos include the destinations and enjoyment of the countryside. Take care. V X
Hi Vin! thanks for writing! yeah about the roads, it was mostly really nice and quiet and we really appreciated that - it is so nice often to be able to ride side by side and chat. And we found that on this trip a lot of the car drivers we encountered were very decent, waiting if necessary till they it was safe for them to overtake and giving us a lot of space. So, yeh of course we appreciated that. I always wonder if drivers see in their rear view mirrors that we do give a wave to say thanks. I imagine they dont really, cos they will be looking ahead wont they, but anway. About angel roofs, I found a map of them that was just extraoridary, masses of them in E Anglia and a few drifting out into Lincolnshire etc. Then hardly any. People have wondered why and one theory is that it's the big skies full of birds in the eastern counties that somehow that led to roofs full of angels. Anyway! hope you are having a nice weekend! thanks for writing!
@@susannathornton Apparently there is an angel roofed church in Taunton. It isn’t quite as spectacular at those in East Anglia seem to be although it looks as if it’s been painted in the not too distant past which make it look a lot more ‘fancy’ in the photos. Structurally simpler though and interesting as it’s a long way from the east. I feel sure I’ve seen another in Devon somewhere but I can’t remember where or maybe I’ve imagined it. V
@@jellyartist ah interesting that it looks different. Apparently there is a little cluster there in Devon and Somerset. I read a book about medieval East Anglian angel roofs, by a guy called Rimmer or something - who took super photos of them actually - and he did mention an apparently unrelated cluster of angels in the rafters in Devon Somerset. Interesting that the ones you've seen are a different style. I wish I could have taken better photos. I love looking at the details but it's all very high up!
Another lovely trip with your Dad. I loved it. You really know how to thread the scenes together beautifully. I'm envious of the rural public bus system there. We've seen some improvements on that front here but we're a long way behind in Ireland. Your Dad is in great fettle. So are you! Long may ye travel together. x
Sounds like a great idea for a trip, Susana. I rode around Norfolk at the beginning of July doing the Rebellion Way and, like you, had quite a bit of rain. Nonetheless it’s a fun and scenic place to cycle 😀
I’m with the rest of your family - the cakes stole the show…the angels with wings put up a good fight but they lacked the sugar pleasure envy hit!! 🤭 Great example as to how nifty the Brompton is for opening up adventure opportunities! Yourself and your Dad look like great travel companions…a lovely video Susanna and fab to see yourself and your Dad together again on an adventure ❤️
Haha yeh those puddings were good! In normal life I limit myself these days, but when I am out cycling I feel I can let myself go and have a few proper puddings 😁 love it haha
Fabulous! Lovely to see your dad again. You’ve given me lots of ideas for future adventures. That bus website looks amazing. I now have a bus pass so combination of bus and Brompton is a great free way to get around and see more. Thanks for sharing your holiday with us. ❤
Hi Lynne! yeh it is a fab website isnt it, I get really inspired looking at it too. I wrote to the guy to thank him. And such a cheap way to get about, even without a bus pass the £2 cap thing is brilliant. Looking forward to hear what you do!
Really valued the extended intro providing useful websites for planning both rail and bus journeys and will definitely be using Open street maps in future! Agree with you that Google maps public transport layer is frustrating. Thanks for the recommendations and another warm, informative and joyful video.
Hello! thanks for writing! yeh it is a pity isnt it that Google Maps doesnt show the trains more clearly, and pity that when you click "public transport" layer you don't see the bus lines. GM do have the bus info, cos it is used in the GM public transport "Directions" thing so I dont understand why they dont show the bus routes. They show the underground lines in London really nicely in the "public transport" layer, so you can see where the lines actually go. I wonder why they dont show "interurban" buses like that.
Thanks for another great adventure Susanna! 😊 When you said about treasure hunting I was wondering if you had ever tried Geocaching? We did it a lot when my son was younger as they are just everywhere and it can make a nice free day out hunting for treasure in the countryside. Anyway, take care for now
Thanks Martin! thanks for writing, sounds great about walking on the SW coast path with buses. My friend Lynne has been doing something similar, and I did some stretches with her, bus assisted. We camped at one place, then over a couple of days bussed out and walked back, both directions, if you know what I mean. V nice weekend. Anyway! thanks for watching!
Wonderful Susanna! How nice to revisit places you had seen with your family and how lucky of you to have such an active dad, still able to join you for a holiday on a bike!
wow, you won me early! what an awesome daughter you are, and your Dad is my new inspiration. I loved the various old worlde and digital maps you displayed. Walked Peddars Way last year, so loved spotting the places I now know a bit. (Tip: that involved quite a bit of country lane road walking - and commuters use some, and FLY!!! Stay alert) Planning for my next journey - walking, kayaking, and will it be a bicycle or a small motorcycle? still deciding (I ride both here in NZ). Cheers Susanna!, John
thanks for writing! aw yeh about the maps that olde worlde map is beautiful isnt it, I love it. It's actually an old schoolroom map, you know the type they hung on the classroom wall back in the way. Hope you have a great next trip...
Another lovely adventure showcasing the versatility of the Brompton! I especially loved the old wool churches, with their angel roofs and over the top fonts.
Aw me too, I miss the Peak District hills too. Feel lucky to have grown up with all that on the doorstep... But Norwich, yeah we really liked it, great place, lovely countryside roundabout, and the coast too so close actually, though we didnt see that this time
Enjoyed that and your other videos. You are inspiring enough but your Dad at 88 👏👏 I did a day ride on my Brompton recently where I did about 40 miles with a train journey and a ferry crossing as well. It struck me afterwards that as I get even older I could do the same journey but just increase the ratio of public transport. Fantastic machines and mine has a Kinetics conversion too which makes it even better but still good for public transport. Buses are free for oldies in Scotland too, so even better. Keep doing your videos 🙏👏
Susanna, I love your videos and the way you showcase your trips and the places you visit - truly wonderful to embrace & appreciate the simple but beautiful things in life. Your Dad is amazing too! On another note - I'm a Kiwi & looking at doing some bike touring (on a Brompton) in Europe next year. I have the classic Ortlieb bags & would love to be able to use them. If at all possible, I would love to buy a steel rack like your husband made for your front Ortlieb pannier. Is that something he (or you) could consider? Many thanks, Lynn
Hi Lynn! glad you enjoy the films! oh that is great that you are planning to tour on your Brompton. About the frame for using an Ortlieb on the front of a Brompton, I'm afraid my husband doesnt make these commercially, but happy for people to copy his design - there is an image of the frame with notes on dimensions etc here, so that you could ask someone local to you to make one ruclips.net/video/ar8D-TVgdxg/видео.htmlsi=uZpNWePnHtE3ql2k&t=227
As always - loved your film. Such a lovely relationship with your dad and it is so easy to see how much you both enjoy the adventure. I am so sorry to hear that your dad is also dealing with cancer but can see that you are a great encouragement to each other and the shared joy of cycling is a wonderful distraction and boost to you both. Wishing you both the best of health and hoping that things improve despite it being cancer. Thank you for sharing your adventure - it is a real spirit lifter for those who share the journey vicariously too.
Your Dad is a role model still on his bike at 88. That’s tremendous, well done both of you for another Epic adventure together. It’s always nice to cycle with somebody else, but cycling with family is super special. 😀

What a great daughter you are, keeping your old man fit and entertained ❤

We did it a lot when my son was younger as they are just everywhere and it can make a nice free day out hunting for treasure in the countryside. Anyway, take care for now
Love these videos. Thanks for tip of busatlas, now using to plan mini adventures on South West Coast Path (walking)
Thanks Martin! thanks for writing, sounds great about walking on the SW coast path with buses. My friend Lynne has been doing something similar, and I did some stretches with her, bus assisted. We camped at one place, then over a couple of days bussed out and walked back, both directions, if you know what I mean. V nice weekend. Anyway! thanks for watching!
Wonderful Susanna! How nice to revisit places you had seen with your family and how lucky of you to have such an active dad, still able to join you for a holiday on a bike!
wow, you won me early! what an awesome daughter you are, and your Dad is my new inspiration. I loved the various old worlde and digital maps you displayed. Walked Peddars Way last year, so loved spotting the places I now know a bit. (Tip: that involved quite a bit of country lane road walking - and commuters use some, and FLY!!! Stay alert) Planning for my next journey - walking, kayaking, and will it be a bicycle or a small motorcycle? still deciding (I ride both here in NZ). Cheers Susanna!, John
thanks for writing! aw yeh about the maps that olde worlde map is beautiful isnt it, I love it. It's actually an old schoolroom map, you know the type they hung on the classroom wall back in the way. Hope you have a great next trip...
Hi everyone..... From Cape Town, Sunny South Africa.
Thx Sue for sharing your interesting bike trips with us, much appreciated.
Another great trip with your Dad. After Hereford last time. Super stuff Susanna. 👍🏻
Heartwarming video.Keep them coming 🚲🚍🚞.
Another lovely adventure showcasing the versatility of the Brompton! I especially loved the old wool churches, with their angel roofs and over the top fonts.
aw thanks Linda! glad you enjoyed it!
What a joy, to share this with your dad. Do cherish the moments with him. ❤
Great 👍 🎉 enjoy your ride guys.
I’m in awe of your dad, I aspire to be as active as he is (if I’m lucky enough to reach his age)
Another amazing adventure, thank you both for taking us along: Russ 👍🏼🚴♀️🚴♂️☕🍰
Excellent... Can't say more....
Thanks for another good video. I’m always impressed how your Dad rides so well so far
Reminds why I live in Norwich. I do miss the hills in the Peaks.
Aw me too, I miss the Peak District hills too. Feel lucky to have grown up with all that on the doorstep... But Norwich, yeah we really liked it, great place, lovely countryside roundabout, and the coast too so close actually, though we didnt see that this time
Can I get an outfit check for your Dad?! I am loving Dapper Active Dad.
Enjoyed that and your other videos. You are inspiring enough but your Dad at 88 👏👏 I did a day ride on my Brompton recently where I did about 40 miles with a train journey and a ferry crossing as well. It struck me afterwards that as I get even older I could do the same journey but just increase the ratio of public transport. Fantastic machines and mine has a Kinetics conversion too which makes it even better but still good for public transport. Buses are free for oldies in Scotland too, so even better. Keep doing your videos 🙏👏
Lovely Susanna, such nice trips together with your father, great countryside’s and towns
What an inspiring pair!!!
Another really interesting film.
Susanna, I love your videos and the way you showcase your trips and the places you visit - truly wonderful to embrace & appreciate the simple but beautiful things in life. Your Dad is amazing too!
On another note - I'm a Kiwi & looking at doing some bike touring (on a Brompton) in Europe next year.
I have the classic Ortlieb bags & would love to be able to use them. If at all possible, I would love to buy a steel rack like your husband made for your front Ortlieb pannier. Is that something he (or you) could consider?
Many thanks, Lynn
Hi Lynn! glad you enjoy the films! oh that is great that you are planning to tour on your Brompton. About the frame for using an Ortlieb on the front of a Brompton, I'm afraid my husband doesnt make these commercially, but happy for people to copy his design - there is an image of the frame with notes on dimensions etc here, so that you could ask someone local to you to make one ruclips.net/video/ar8D-TVgdxg/видео.htmlsi=uZpNWePnHtE3ql2k&t=227
Susanna, thank you so much for kindly offering the details of the frame/ rack.🙏 - much appreciated.
I’m looking forward to your next trip. Take care.,
As always - loved your film. Such a lovely relationship with your dad and it is so easy to see how much you both enjoy the adventure.
I am so sorry to hear that your dad is also dealing with cancer but can see that you are a great encouragement to each other and the shared joy of cycling is a wonderful distraction and boost to you both.
Wishing you both the best of health and hoping that things improve despite it being cancer. Thank you for sharing your adventure - it is a real spirit lifter for those who share the journey vicariously too.
aw thank you Penny
Thank you for taking us on your adventures. It's many years since I have been to Norfolk.
These videos are inspirational.
Class video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hello Susanna, your father is really good for his age, I am sure you both enjoyed each others company. My best wishes to both. Andrew.
thanks Andrew! best wishes!
Great video! It's wonderful that your dad still rides his bike with 88 years. I which I'm able to do the same when I'm his age.
