So good to see you doing a foreign ride now you’ve completed Britain Josh. Hope for more of these, some cracking gravel in Spain…
-
This is probably your best video, Josh. Really enjoyed watching it again.
-
Lovely story about the old chap that cycled with you. Its those sort of things that stick in your mind for probably always!
-
Thanks again, Josh. Another great film with spectacular scenery captured very professionally, a proper taste of France. Your little story was great. I have been cycling on and off for over 50 years. Once you're fit and on a decent machine, there's nothing better but it's always difficult to communicate that feeling to others. Your channel, with your enthusiasm and humour is inspiration encouragement for everyone, especially those with an open mind.👍
-
Great story Josh about the 90 year old man, gotta love things that transcend boundaries! Looks like you got the legs to enter GBduro this year! 💪
-
Genuinely glad to see you riding in some decent weather for a change Josh. Great trip and loved the music.
-
This is a great video. I love the story of you cycling with the guy in his 90s. I wonder if he is still around. I hope to be riding in my 90s as well.
-
Nice to see you riding outside of Britain. European trips are amazing 🤩
-
What a great trip. 👍 It really came over that you enjoyed it and weren't just banging the miles out!
-
Thanks for another great trip with some lovely photography as usual. What a nice story about the elderly gent you rode with in southern France. To live into your 90s is one thing, but to still be doing what you love is better still. I hope he's still alive and pedalling, but if not, I'm sure he'll be looking down and smiling at your adventures. Chapeau to that dear chap! 👍
-
Trés bon mate. Drone shots are top notch.
-
I did this route end of last year. Totally relaxing, but I peeled south after ouistreham and off to the west coast and back to Cherbourg. Great 5 day adventure chilling in sunshine and endless camp spots. Like yourself I’m in Bournemouth too so it’s an easy loop using the poole ferry. Nice video that and brought back good vibes for me 👌🏻⛺️
-
what a trip, lots of beautiful scenery. Loved your story about riding with ole mate. Cheers and thanks Josh
-
So jealous as that’s one of my bucket list trips.
-
Been looking forward to a trip abroad for YouTube’s No1 bikepacker (IMHO) much better than that “No whammies.” Guy. Great content and videography as usual 👍
-
Brilliant video. Perfect music. Thanks for putting titles and background on some of the points of interest. Also the date when you rode it.
-
Thanks for another cracking trip looks so lovely one day may try this 😊
-
Absolutely beautiful scenery! Inspiring adventure 😊
-
Another ace ride and video, just fantastic ❤️💪💪🏁🏁
