I’m bikepacking across England from the most Westerly to Easterly points, Lands End in Cornwall to Lowestoft in Suffolk. Completely self supported and camping every night the first episode follows me as I bikepacking in Cornwall.

    1. I too am a middle aged on & off road cyclist from Penzance… It was great to see you on some of our local roads & trails. You were certainly using some pretty off beat routes… The problem with Kamoot is that it tries to keep you off the road as much as possible, and in summer down here, even without Covid the bridleways & single track stuff are allowed gets pretty overgrown with the brambles & stingers… Some of us do try and get out with our strimmers & chainsaws to try and keep the most popular trails ridable, but its a futile battle… You were definitely using some trails less travelled and more suited to Mtb there though..!
      P.S. Things to know about West Cornwall is shops close at tea time, and where ever you are, the train don't stop there on Wednesdays… The way to pronounce Mousehole is Mouzzle and the Carn Brea castle is actually an off-grid restaurant with a road up to it on the other side of the hill…
      Looking forward to the next instalment…

How does it work and are the prices reasonable? Many thanks in advance shaneweightman cheers

    3. Mistake on day not to be repeated. Recharging your energy for the next day is the first priority. Cutting the day a little short is a smart move to secure a hot meal & a cold ale. Safe journey.
