  • Today I decided to embark on an epic journey from the city in Plymouth, to the heights of Dartmoor, in search of a good spot to take my girlfriend bikepacking. I figured Fogginator Quarry would be a good spot, although twists and turns happen along the way that might throw a spanner in the works for that idea.

      I can’t believe _the_ Matt Lowne would respond to some random, small RUclipsr’s comment! Truly an amazing, charitable and considerate man.

      I'm not really into road cycling (I don't own a road bike lol), but I always do the Tour De Moor!

    I just did 70km ride! Although there was no elevation change and I was still knackered at the end of it - I can't imagine doing onto the moor

    You could camp around nun's cross farm. You rode past it on this ride. It's the house in the middle of nowhere past the Princetown 'summit' there's a leat with running water nearby and it's pretty flat.

      My concern would be that it's a bit exposed and technically private property, part of Mount Kelly School?

    The first two minutes of the his video show how good the cycling infrastructure is in Plymouth 👍🏻
    Probably the only reason you would want to visit Plymouth though 🤣🤣

    For what its worth every time ive gone camping there have been signs everywhere saying you arent allowed to camp but me not caring went anyway and turns out a lot of other people dont care either and the stream i camped on had about 6 other groups within a 400m section lol

      @@MattLowne especially if you dont set your tent up until later on when theres noone around and then pack it all away in the morning theres no harm in it. If someone does catch you just say you entered the quarry from the other side and there were no signs

    I like the 'idea' of cycling but i just like hearing you awkwardly ramble about something youre passionate about and i like trying to follow your route on my second monitor on google maps. Thats not weird right?

    As an American, I'm obliged to dunk on brits as part of celebrating the day we made the mistake of winning by saying our car infrastructure is way more dominant over all other methods of travel in comparison to yours.
    I'm totally not saying this out of jealousy and I definitely dont watch these videos as a coping mechanism.
