    I live in an arid grassland at the edge of a desert so these manicured hedge bordered paths and green hills are so foreign. It looks like a great ride. Someday I'll get to travel to the UK.

    Thank you for this video. I have replicated several of your rides on Dartmoor in the past… I live in Axminster and it is so nice to see you enjoying the beauty of East Devon. I do hope that you return and finish off the East Devon Trail.

    What a lovely route and a great video! Your piss-poor preparation for such a big ride is what I love about your vlogs, I’m ‘nearly’ as bad, but I ride with someone who carries everything bar the kitchen sink. Keep up the good work!

      Throwing a bit of dirt or small bits of grass onto the hole might also help sealing it. The sealant also just contains small (specialized) particles.

    I picked up some sections of this last week as I was down in Exmouth. Those trails over Woodbury Common were absolutely amazing, plus the weather was great to really enhance the experience. Also came across a camp of Marines, who were clearly not expecting to see me whizzing through on the hardtail so early in the morning! 🤣🤘

    I know I have already posted but travelling in Ireland but I love seeing these adventures of yours. Just reminded me of my time cycling around Clonakilty in County Cork Ireland. Stayed in a hostel that use to be a brewery and it was a highlight. Brewery was the Deasy brewery. Ah the memories.
    EDIT: you quickly talk about your sunburn. My first week in Ireland was sunny everyday! I was not expecting that and didn't have any light long sleeve tops plus trying to find sunblock in Ireland was almost impossible at the time. LOL!!!

    I knocked that lot out in just over a day and I’m not even a particularly fast cyclist. 1 night stopover in a pub and back in Exeter for lunch the next day. It can easily be done in a day with an early start. It’s a very enjoyable route.

    Yes, Katie Kookaburra's recent videos certainly put what I think is a "long ride" into perspective.😄They're inspirational, but your videos are probably slightly more achievable inspiration for me... That route looks terrific. I just wish that singletrack through tall grass by a river in summer didn't make my brain scream "SNAKES" (I live in Australia)

    Enjoyed the ride. Looks like you made it as far as Seaton. Was it after that you got the flat. My father is from Seaton so I know the area. I’m envious of the trails. Here in Newfoundland most trails are rocky and steep and covered in snow for fine months.

    Woodbury Common?? This was used a training ground for the Commando Course out of Lympstone. Fond memeories, Woodbury Rash caught by 25% of us which gave a leprosy like rash which meant the female populace shunned you for years. So we would run around these trails with all our kit then on one exercise we were told dig a trench. The ground is 20ft of gravel and pebbles. Took 12 hours. This was considered a good time. Mispent youth but worth it!!

    Please can you mount the garmin so that it doesn't rattle on the stem top cap... and stop it beeping! I turn every new garmin I get to silent as the incessant noise spoiling the countryside drives me insane. As for the mechanical, the hole wasn't that large if it was close to sealing so could have been easily sorted with one of those tubeless plug puncture kits. The other option is to carry a tube, just in case. The other common gravel biker hack is to wait for an MTBer to come along and fix it for you!
