As Allen made a fine job of his years biking exploits I thought I'd share mine. Not as fast or giggly as Al but it was a great year with all things considered!
Enjoy!

great fli.m. :-bd:
As John Allen made a fine :-bd: job of his years biking exploits and unscheduled dismount... :roll:.
You matched the standard, but summarised a different set of outcomes and (hopefully stayed injury free) :wink: .

,.. but also disappointed you did not go all out and grasp the comedy potential nettle, when riding along the rivers and drops.( I think I hope you know what I might of meant :roll: ).
so to redress the balance I've summarised who any I haven't got out but lived dangerously, all the same.
[Edit:] just bought today from you know where...

Love it. Such amazing scenery and the drone stuff is great. I got dizzy when you filmed looking over that cliff (not good with heights, me)

Keep this stuff coming eh? It's really genuine. So much of the overly produced films on bikepacking.com and other sites seems to me that they are more about making the film than they are about doing the ride. What I like about your and Allen's vids is that you don't go bikepacking to make a film. It's something you do when you go biking. Big heart emoji.

Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed it.
Making a trip into a film will be good when I'm old and decribed (I'm not that far away....)

Yeah another great vid to be inspired for a couple of minutes :grin:

(Although that GoPro pan up on the waterfall was mildly nausea inducing!)

I take it you never went clubbing in the 90's?
:wink:

Love it Jeff. Always took great pleasure in watching your films. My phone always lets me know when there's a new upload, so I never miss them now. It was great to see you again on GFBD. I'll take an extra beer next time as JC can't count 😅

All the best mate. Looking forward to more content. I love the history aspect too, you know so much about your garden !
