Cycle Touring Netherlands on Bromptons

A little cycle tour through the Netherlands on our Brompton’s with a reggae/dub soundtrack, I mean what more could anyone need but to watch two Brompton’s in the sun with this tune!

This is the first time we have taken the Brompton’s abroad since getting them a couple of months ago. Now given their ease of folding into such a small size a flight would have been possible but very unnecessary give the distance between the East of England and Holland. So we took the ferry as usual.

You might see in the video we only had a tarp (no tent) this time to keep it minimal. Plus we only went for four days. As you’ll see from our other videos we are regulars at this route and I can confirm that, with the Brompton’s, it has been the most fun anyone can legally have with a bicycle in the outdoors. I’ve put a few links below to some of the kit you might see in the video of interest. Personally, I found the bike packing so much easier on the Brompton compared to my Trek or road bike. Mainly due to these excellent two bags:

Floral front bag for handlebars (note, other less flowery version available):

Brompton front messenger bag (a must, storage is great and totally waterproof):

And of course, the music which makes it all look so cool:
