    This will be a mini-series before the big trip through SE Asia and beyond which we will be doing as a couple in September 2018.

    For the next month, I will be cycling without Lucia from the UK to Gibraltar at the southern tip of Spain.

    I’m doing this trip for a number of reasons. I want to test myself physically before the SE Asia journey and explore parts of Europe that I’ve never been to before. I also want to use this as a trial run with the kit and equipment whilst filming, editing and uploading videos on the road.

    1. Just catching up on your videos – this and the previous ones are really enjoyable and very well made and your commentary is excellent – well done. I've also got a Surly Disc Trucker and Ortleib bags and you are making me itchy to wander!

    2. I’m about to embark on a short solo cycle trip. I’m really uncertain of how best to secure my bike and bags when buying food, etc. Your videos are great, and very entertaining. Best of luck.

    3. Just found this video through doing some research on routes to take, im wanting to do London to Gibralta in september, and wanted to do some of the east coast of spain but so far have only really found routes going through central spain but you route looks alot like something i want do to.
      Would love it if you had any advice, or if you have your route saved at all for something i could look over ?

      il be watching the rest of you series now to see what i have infront of me 🙂

    4. Fair play for doing this ! I want to do it in reverse and get the ferry to bilboa Spain then cycle up through France to the UK. Working out the logistics at the mo .Did you camp a lot or stay in hotels to charge you're equipment (satnav phone ) etc etc.

    5. What a wonderful start to the adventure. Great to hear a bit of french (I’m french) looking forward to the rest of it. Such a big adventure to catch up on!

    6. Planning to cycle through Africa and taking your exact route. (Apart from Poole to Cherbourg instead). In June Next summer 2022. Id love to chat about your experiences and ask for some advice. Love you Channel.

    7. i see that you started with front rack panniers and ended the journey with a different setup. why did you drop the front rack? i love ur vids. thx!

    8. I have just completed a similar trip and uploaded my first video. I'm planning on cycling around the world at the start of 2024. Videos like this have really helped and inspired me with my planning! Thank you 🙂
