    Just realised you live close to me when I spotted the Croft Borough council sign, I’m in Golborne. It looked like great fun, I knew most of your route 😊

      Thanks a lot for watching and commenting.
      Yeah, we had a really good laugh on this one.
      The route was really nice and the others especially enjoyed it because most of it was new to them.
      Happy cycling...👍🏻

    Great video haven’t laughed so much in a long time good to see 4 old mates getting out and about it’s like carry camping

      That's brilliant, I'm so glad we entertained you with this one.
      Before the trip we set up a WhatsApp group and called it "Carry on Camping". It turned out to be very apt...🤣

      Hi Steven, yeah it was a great little adventure. The cafe at the farm does great home cooked food at very reasonable prices and it's a wonderful setting.

      Yeah, it's a nice little place. Not an official campsite, mainly an outdoor cafe. Good food at reasonable prices. Perfect...👍🏻

  • @randelscyclevlogperthwa7342
    @randelscyclevlogperthwa7342 3 месяца назад

    My tent has to be 2 man so I've got room to put some stuff in next to me, self supporting so I don't need to bother with pegs most nights and side opening so (don't tell anyone) I can roll over and have a pee at night.

    • @davidbenson735
      @davidbenson735  3 месяца назад

      Hi Randel, I've seen your tent on your bikepacking videos, and I remember thinking it looked pretty good, especially as you don't have to peg it in. Here in the UK it would blow away without pegging it in, as I'm sure you know we have pretty poor weather a lot of the time, not the settled stuff you have over there. Bye the way, your secret about peeing out the side of the tent is safe with me, I won't tell anyone...🤣
      Thanks very much for watching and commenting. Happy cycling 🚴🏻‍♂️

      @randelscyclevlogperthwa7342 3 месяца назад +1

      @davidbenson735 I do wonder what other tenters do when it comes to late night peeing, especially if it's raining etc, bit of a taboo subject.
