      I hate bike packing, fun to watch video but I hate carrying all that junk!
      Edit: that's not really bike packing that's Holiday Inn tripping 😂

      @gmbn it would have to be France! Endless landscapes, great food and drink, nice people (if you speak the language). What's not to like!

    Legends say due to Owens oddities, this two day adventure took three days to film.

    You will definitely have to get Owen out more the poor lad, I feel for him.
    More of these types of videos please, I enjoyed every second.

    Leave your bikes unlocked outside the pub while you go inside for lunch and they are still there when you get back, amazing!

    • @komoonkh
      @komoonkh 4 месяца назад +1

      Definitely not happening here in Czech 😂 even if you lock it, it might be gone, also the lamp you locked it to😅

    • @siimot
      @siimot 4 месяца назад +2

      Yeah i do it all the time around here in Wiltshire, not much danger at a quiet village pub of it getting stolen.

    @tmill2001 4 месяца назад +2

    Love it! Owen on a bike! He reminds me of my riding buddy...always goes on,on,on and on talking. Maybe now him and Ollie from GCN together? Oh thats 2 MUCH!! LOL

  • @DanielDaniel-do5qu
    @DanielDaniel-do5qu 4 месяца назад +3

    PLEASE make these riding history tours Owens 'thing' on the channel. I'll watch every single one just to learn about the great grey UK.

  • @MichaelS-pr9qn
    @MichaelS-pr9qn 4 месяца назад +2

    More Owen Please? I don't live in the UK, and I appreciate the Local knowledge as i plan a last? trip from Canada

  • @davidburgess6640
    @davidburgess6640 4 месяца назад +2

    That looked like way too much fun, which I've come to expect from Blakes videos. Welcome to the team Owen, great fun video.

  • @junka1975
    @junka1975 4 месяца назад +2

    Owen's Oddities, we need more of those in biking adventures. Just make sure he has more tea and snacks to stop the bonk. Blake as always, just a fun loving bloke doing fun loving things.

  • @deadcandisco5974
    @deadcandisco5974 4 месяца назад +2

    That was brilliant!. More like this please. Maybe a GMBN Tech video on the kit required to go bike packing on a mountain bike. Maybe something that would cover bigger loads if you wanted to camp out vs hotel stays. I want to go bike packing, but I don't want to buy a touring bike, or a gravel bike to do it. You rarely see videos about bike packing on a MTB. PS: More of Owen riding bikes! Such a great guy.

  • @ZOB4
    @ZOB4 4 месяца назад +3

    Nice video, Owen is great and an excellent addition to the team. Thanks for doing this adventure on bicycles, by the way. Something I shouldn't have to say, but since this channel has recently been turning in to a second EMBN channel, I appreciate that you didn't use motorcycles for this adventure.

  • @TheDizzyCyclist
    @TheDizzyCyclist 4 месяца назад +1

    Thank you Blake and Owen for visiting Salisbury and showing how beautiful our city and the county side round here is.

  • @jamesashley6792
    @jamesashley6792 4 месяца назад +2

    Interesting watch, I'm from warminster area. You should check out Shearwater and Longleat forest..... gnarly old trails....

  • @Pete_B95
    @Pete_B95 4 месяца назад +2

    Great to see Owen out and about and also to see the kind of riding that so many UK mtb’ers do.

    Finally Owen showing up Blake by "Shredding the Gnar " like a Boss .......outstanding ride lads

  • @JamesMkII
    @JamesMkII 4 месяца назад +8

    I always assumed Owen was on Tech because nobody had managed to make a helmet strong enough to contain his luscious locks.

    • @JamesMkII
      @JamesMkII 4 месяца назад +4

      As a side note, Owen’s Luscious Locks could be the name of a new video series where he rides the canals of Britain.

    • @komoonkh
      @komoonkh 4 месяца назад +1

      Or it might be a video about bike locks. You know, some luscious ones.

    That was awesome. You guys have so many great riding options there. Owen should do a historical video on how the UK bought into making all these biking opportunities.

    Big up Wiltshire! Beautiful county, so glad I live here. Was especially helpful during covid, so much space to get out on the bike!

  • @andymicklewright3993
    @andymicklewright3993 4 месяца назад +2

    Great video, for me mountain biking is also about touring, bike parks are great but touring is just amazing for stopping off at pubs or finding hidden single tracks. Still so much better than being a roadie!

  • @matthewwhite546
    @matthewwhite546 4 месяца назад +1

    I used to live in Salisbury. Nice to see shots of my old stomping ground. Another oddity for Owen: the cathedral is home to one of the last original and best preserved copies of the Magna Carta.

  • @r0bv123
    @r0bv123 4 месяца назад +2

    Lol love this, welcome Owen! Now you need a proper mtb helmet to join the crew!

    • @ArkUSAbikerchick
      @ArkUSAbikerchick 4 месяца назад +1

      And maybe lower his seat 1/2” or bring the seat forward a little. He looked to be reaching with his legs when he was pedaling. I really, really like Owen! He’s charming!

    • @KevinT3141
      @KevinT3141 4 месяца назад

      That's the helmet that protects his hair, he also needs one that protects his head.

    @richardwatson2348 4 месяца назад +2

    I flippin love this. You got two characters completely different. Going on a bike ride and enjoying themselves. The measured in wrinkles comment got me laughing!
    I also think blake should have a side hussle. "A day on the bike with blake" do tours.. id pay a ton of money to have blake as a tourguide for a day! 😂

    • @Dave_Ehlers

    You need to look at the ISM saddles. Saddles are always a bone of contention, but the touring saddle is awesome. No mucking about with creams & you can ride for hours without discomfort.
