Fat Bike Iceland

A couple of weeks back I returned home after spending a week with John Climber in Iceland. Apologies to those who thought I might of thrown him into the fiery depths of a volcano but it just proves that I have more patience than I thought

So the week comprised of driving a great 4x4 around the place, with some superb biking thrown in, a few small hikes and 6 nights of wild camping (hence posting on here). OK we did not do the 'bikepacking' thing 100% but the 6 nights wild camping included a 500 year old lava field, next to a glacier, next to a glacial flood plain, next to a glacial river and on a hill with the view of steam rising from the hills infront of us.

So here's a few pics, mainly of camp spots and cooking and if you want to see a bit more check out the video at the bottom.... thanks
