    Hey folks how you doing it’s Richard from by packing Adventures as you can see if you can picture few patches of ice here on the shores of the hum Ester at CLE fors so we’re going to head actually heading this way along the cyclopath to uh humston at the Y club

    And then uh little bit of off-road going to join on some gravel tracks that you’ve seen me ride a few times in the last few videos 120km heading down to JJ’s Cafe at the southern edge of the Lincolnshire worlds she’ll be home around 4:00 I would Imagine something I uh need to not ignore today is this stra for the wind it’s just going to get windier throughout today and probably won’t be riding tomorrow CU looks like it’s going to be exceptionally [Applause] Windy So on today’s route I’m going down to hag Wenham 75k into the wind 50k back hopefully a nice Tailwind it’s kind of a wiggly route down to the bottom although not exceptionally wiggly wiggly just try to uh you know ride some of those sections of off-road that I

    Haven’t for a good few moments now see how they Are now heading toward W North coats Airfield certainly feel the difference with a bit of a Tailwind absolutely raw today kind of wish I put my Jill on just feel like a Gile would have just helped just a little bit more however feeling mixed emotions today cuz it’s like a little bit warm

    Around the neck I know for a second i’ take it off be too cold not F this time of year when it comes to getting dressed finally get yourself out of the door right here’s my turn in just the other side this house I discover these by just right

    With GPS really look at where people went look at that all important heat map although some places no heat map at all and just get it a go wing it Just heading towards the uh horseshoe points there could be a trail on the right second as South this wind is really uh get to annoy me now quite demotivating not only this G but the chill factor as well this seems to be a good time to say

    Well done to a good friend Chris scorn he attempted a bike ride this week try from the south coast near Portsmouth all the way back home to grinby and CLE Forks a journey of about 340k believe he managed about 280 something like that so work very well

    For him just scared out the door really very brave at this time of year you know I would have done that in January that’s for sure so uh yeah well done mate putting all those miles in believe it was cold I got to him and early evening so it was very cold this

    Week so yeah we’re just to getting out the b and attempting to get that far you know Well Done mate so this next Trail I’m going to be taking will drop me in at donok it’s like a military thing along the East Coast so we’re going to be

    Heading down there it’s also a very popular spot in November that’s the time when the seals are out mating if you want to be a Voyer head to donor in about November that’s your probably best time to watch the seals getting it On all the elements Today getting blown all over the place here oh here we are down there it’s to be by surprise but there we go right get away from at least some of the wind for a little while I’ve been down that road before it did say private at the other end woohoo pop a gravel

    Wow I don’t know if you can tell I’m getting thrown around everywhere a little bit hard to appreciate on camera cuz the Horizon balancing is really good on the DJI and blocking out that wind as well this wind is really cold watch B over later so this little track I’m on right

    Now will eventually bring me into Mambi there uh it goes pretty close to where the RF base used to be off on the left somewhere underestimated the wind chill today can’t believe when I left home I actually taking clothes off but how out but out here in the proper Countryside completely

    Different if we turn over the walls should be good definitely should have done it the way around though that is 100% sure if you live around here you probably think what the Earth is in that way around for yeah I should have gone through the walls into the

    Wind and then come back along the coast with a Tailwind but no no no few snowf flowers now as I’m just coming into manbe that wasn’t in the Forecast there’s been a change of plan I’m going to abort so I’m in the leg born not too far from LA so I think I’m going to head to the uh Tennis Center in I use that as my Cafe stop then head back home cuz it’s

    Just that wind and I’ve not got another layer with me I really could have done with one more Layer any distance at this time of year is is welcome I don’t know if you can tell on camera the sun is actually coming out probably the main reason why I turned back is cuz it was just getting cloudi and cloudier Sun’s no way to be seeing it’s bitterly Gold Ah that’s it Tennis Club over with small breakfast pot of tee for one not greedy today don’t feel like I’ve put in a big enough effort for a big Breakfast it’s still raining it’s start spitting me take a wind all the way back oh Yes H [Applause] [Applause] Tell you why it looks like it’s briding up behind me now well that wind is omn presentes so I should stop wiing and uh you know give myself a pat on the back for get it out today I’ve never seen l r was spelled that way

    Before want to call in there you know that it’s going to come out what you feel inside you know that it’s going to come out what you feel in Sky is definitely cleared up over there had only to just pushed through so I’ve chopped it Shore by about 40 45k today never mind oh it comes the wind well I did want a bit more Offroad so just f up the wind a little bit Longer I wonder if there’s anybody fishing down here still cuz believe it or not 10:00 this morning ice everywhere people they fishing umbrellas out in this cold just sat there cuz that’s how you do and fishing in it you just sit there how the hell do you manage to keep

    Warm right see how mudy it is at the end of this now I’m playing golf and it’s closed but you know golf is a l of play anyway in all weers there’s the mess coming Up been Ching all that over Here someone needs to hold them to account now years ago now it’s growing up I don’t know if it’s still the case but they have a sign up here on this Farm saying watch out for the ball I’m not suggesting it after all these decades is the same Ball but you

    Never know out of a bow in there anyway enough of this ball I’m end this video hope you liked it if you got any comments stick them down below and I’ll catch you in the next one so take care Bye-bye

    1. Ha… not being the purist that you are Richard, I prefer sweating out some 'garage miles' when it's like this. Virtual Grand Tour… unfortunately next stage is Mt Ventoux …. on a nice sunny day though 😓

    2. Looked so 🥶🥶🥶. Notice you didn't ride through the middle of those ice covered puddles. I don't hesitate ,go straight in ,but last winter on a long off road ride half way across the ice broke and I fell in and got an ice bath.
      Never understood what people see in them. 🤣
