well good morning folks welcome to another video switching from backpack Adventures on an odx backpacking Adventure the Northwest North from a a different gear here in Sheffield there’s nine of us turned up so far there’s 11 signed up so it’s going to be quite an adventure it’s got a camping St spot right in the middle of it so everybody’s going to be either in a tent that’s me or laying on the grass in a bivy bag shall we take a look at the bikes morning an how you doing all right he organized well not only organizing sodx this weekend but all points North as well so feels like really being nor and gone to sleep I had a bit of sleep but not much I was totally wired last night it filming my faing oh yeah last minute faffing going on that wasn’t a hint just looking my arm warmers and leg warmers which have a bag of sh yeah you’re going to not going to need those well warmers for a bit yeah little bit given as an idiot let my gloves at home let’s have a look along here another Fair [Music] light this is a giant one giant in size not stupid it’s a Cale that’s call I love that look at this bik packing bikes and banks on show right it’s literally 8:00 so uh about to get it going so they route uh flash up on screen or you’ll find it linked down below basically it’s a day in the D that’s where we’re heading I don’t know if you can see off in the distance the Emily Moore Tower in West Yorkshire big radio transmitter so I just spoke to Angela Walker there she’s the organizer of this odax and All Points North which is taking place in northern England this very same same weekend so today I’m riding 212 km and again tomorrow little bit less heading back south to Sheffield where we started lots of climbing and uh yeah for those that don’t know I put a 32 cassette on this bike just cuz it was s sh uh sat on the shelf for a little while as in a couple years so that’s what we bik today so i’ got not i’ not got enough [Music] gears and I’m in the Y DS um haven’t made the ni decision for a another bike as well don’t know let’s see how it goes [Music] [Music] getting close to the Tower and more importantly t-s there there ah [Music] arrived at the first control The Thorn Cliff tasting rooms don’t know I’m not quite fitting him right today knees out right bik fit doesn’t seem right don’t know if he sett too high I don’t know just doesn’t quite seem right just coming up to the second information control here in Oxen Hope just heading to the Lower Town need to grab a post code near road sign or something oh here we are best Lane what’s the post code well I’m going to guess it’s at number 22 on the sign 22 sest climb of the day so far coming out of ox and hope 100 plus met climbing I know average close to 10 I bet vs oh woo beautiful see me it’s going through or towards scar toop beautiful [Music] stap is climbing the ride so far uh I don’t know where we are those signpost back for gisburn 5 miles kind of built up in area over there that we pass through little bit so middle nowhere heading towards the uh next control gburn no into it’s chat burn into chat burn about 6 7K away maybe woo that was tough [Music] off down into Downham nice little Tailwind oh dear it’s time to calll up again where the clim pro so I don’t know if you can see too well maybe that’s a bit too close yeah 53 M to go over 1.5 all Amber done some of the red bits already [Music] quick mix stop chicken sandwich yogurt I fancy this boost coffee thing I got a donation of some water took some wants to watch CRPS so this is the uh hydration pack from hydration vest even from rrap all right I need to make some adjustments it rides my back a little bit too much but I’ll work it out it’s the best thing about eating a yogurt ah it’s got to be done so this just went in the cost cutters did not live up to the name heading towards settle and uh the next information control Giggles work oh yeah I was very optimistic and finish it this 7:00 that ain’t happening b a good progress It’s probably approaching 130k right now and the last 50k or so it’s just all a hill on the moment we get to settle really so heading to hes which probably means going through the riv Valley I think uh butter tubs which I think I call Butter Cups earli one butter tubs and then Town Hill uh so yeah big too big climbs before then well three C the Ribble if we’re going that way uh yeah some long climbs clim Pro said 20 km worth of categorized climbs still to go started with 50 so yeah just over halfway through still plenty of cling to do but it’s cooled down a bit it was rather for warm earli one I wasn’t liking that aspect of it but now I’m glad it’s cooled down a little bit the uh question I’ve been asking myself on the bike is well are they going to have some towels at D’s bike center cuz funny off didn’t bring a tower with me and it would be nice to have a shower I’m sure they’ve got hot water showers and things so I know they got a dry room so you’d hope there’s a bunch of towels in [Music] there oh yeah don’t qu about a thing cuz every little thing it’s going to be all right and N of this was here last time it was a beautiful Hillside before now the landscape is being [Applause] raped 150k da I’ve passed hon rivale is that right I went for poo there uh 65k to go it’s 5:00 so my 7:00 Target is not possible think more going to be more like half eight I think just got to get to the Wibble head now uh butter tubs and then the pie was just on so climb up 10 Hill and this one here no time for Sight scene today I may have done this a handful of times now but it always feels like a great achievement and that’s the clim towards H from the south and uh the sign the welcoming sign is it rich win I think so yeah as you you know you more or less reach 440 km or 440 M even eventually reaching the top the line between West Yorkshire and North Yorkshire it says there right so it’s lesson 10K towards horse now the final resupply although I’m told everybody finishes and makes it to the end is getting a pack of some description so that should be interesting to see what there is up an arrival at Dale’s bike center man oh partner more part of dir just left horse popped into the pizza shop there play it safe chicken burger KY fries so I’m on the way again not far from the uh town hill just put this just get a go this and then I get up downhill collect a receipt there last time I was going down here it would have been join All Points North and first time I went up it cuz I went in both directions the sun was just Rising it was absolutely amazing view and I slept at D’s B Center for B Center bike center for about 15 minutes or something like that and came back uh cuz after being in d y d was it it was on to the late District so I had to come back this way as well here we are viewer butter tubs behind me beautiful about 17 meters to go still bit to do and I’ll be lying if I say to I’ll be lying I’ll be lying if I said I didn’t get off and walk cuz the steepest part in the castle grid that’s exactly what I did that got bench there must have one of the best views in Yorkshire an interesting fact about btps as well it’s not a hill it’s a mountain p over 500 M now which makes it a mountain anyway back to the Views it’s got it it yes I love this view I get to see it every day [Music] [Music] I was pretty low on water and I saw some running water off the coming off the mountain like so I was like yeah have some of that I was walking at the time it was that last strep that last deep bit before tanel and I was like I’m going to water this hey folks I’m in the tent you might be able to hear the pitter patter of rain on the canopy of the tent CU yeah as expected the rain has arrived luckily after inside nice and dry and we about to Honker down for the night so don’t forget to uh check out part two of Northwest North coming to the channel very soon any questions regarding odax or longdistance riding head down below and
