Bikepacking England’s south coast to Wales Day 3: Brighton To the Isle of Wight

Hi and welcome to WannaGoBiking. My name is Arjan and it is time for a new Bikepacking Adventure! In June ’23 Peter-Jan and I started cycling from Folkestone towards Wales. It was a fun and beautiful ride along the south coast, Isle of Wight , New Forest, Bath and Bristol. My subsequent plan is to cycle in Wales for another week or so, but that’s from episode 9 onwards.
In this third episode we leave Brighton for the isle of Wight. As I’m still suffering from some injuries, we decide to take the train to Portsmouth instead, So a short ride today 🙂
Hope you like it, enjoy your rides and stay safe out there !
