    God welsh is really alien to me! 👽 You could have said anything I would have punched air anyway =/
    How nice to see Laura again though! One of few that can hike as well as bike, _big props_ to her for that! =]
    You should have had a fabulous time together by now, I'm eager to watch the rest of it!
    😊👋

    Miss Juliet. Thank you very much for a lovely video. I was really bummed out over the no swimming sign. I do love the tent. Looks roomy. Looking forward to your next post. Was on travel for my job and now playing catch up on videos

    I took an optional singletrack section on a bikepacking trip last week, and it was very muddy, rooty, and with a bunch of downed trees that we had to lift our bikes over. It was a blast, but definitely not what we thought we were going to encounter. It was a super fun trip! I can thank you two for inspiring me to get out there. Good to see you're at it again.

    What a beautiful route! Incredibly green. Have you looked at the Tailfin rack with the Aero Pack? It will keep your bag off of the rear wheel.

    Hi, love the videos, wondering what benefit the Di2 is however, guess im a bit old school but wouldn’t be a safer option with all your travels? 😉

    I've ridden that trail, it's really nice. I usually camp in Brithdir, its back up the trail, just past Dolgellau. There's the usual amenities, plus a lovely little river and fire pits.

    You should be able to charge Di2 from a powerbank. Worth a try and something lots of people travel with on bike packing trips if the Di2 runs out of juice.😊

      I'm sorry but I don't know as Laura plotted those. I imagine it's the Cycling UK website as they created the route

    I attempted to apply touch up paint on my car after 1 Heineken, it didn’t go well. I totally appreciate that you checked on the alcoholic percentage before deciding, kudos sista.

  • @SeanBickerdike
    @SeanBickerdike 6 месяцев назад

    Hi, great vid. Really fun to watch. I’ve been wondering about this route for a while. Would you say it’s rideable on a gravel bike? I note that both of you have front suspension and some sections seem a bit rough.

    A hill can be formed from faulting, erosion and movement and deposition of sediment by ice glaciers. A mountain is formed through shifting of tectonic plates or volcanism. A hill is usually below 2,000 feet or 600 meters. A mountain is usually above 2,000 feet or 600 meters. Source: GOOGLE

    A height above 2,000 ft, or more latterly 610 m, is considered necessary to be classified as a mountain - as opposed to a hill - in the British Isles. With the exception of Munros, all the lists require a prominence above 15 metres (49.21 ft).

    Amazing video and riding partner. Why does she not wear a shammy? And also why ride these routes as fast as you can if the are absolute gorgeous. I rather take all the time in the world.

  • @AronOutdoors
    @AronOutdoors 6 месяцев назад

    I don't know why I got hung up on the facts that both you and your friend's vans were broken down at the same time. And then the gear shifter broke followed by a dead battery and no charger... What's going on? Beautiful scenery btw. Have the same BA Tigerwall tent, works great.

    A mechanical you just can’t handle, the cars are playing up. 😂😂😂. Oh and chamois is your best friend so educate that rider immediately. You need to back pack more often.

      Don’t talk crap. Need to bikepack more 😆 this ain’t my first rodeo! And it’s up to the person riding to decide on what they wear to ride
