Bikepacking has hit the nationals, yesterday in the Torygraph and today there’s a feature in the Sunday Times. Yes yes, an author has a book to promote but there’s some rather lovely sounding routes described.

Sorry.

Nice one, Cinnamon Girl!
And for those of you who don’t read the Times:
Wylye Valley, Wiltshire
South Downs, Sussex
Peddars Way, Norfolk
Grizedale, Lake District

^^ Esme your Grizedale link is broken

Esme – thank you but your Wylye Valley link isn’t working. I know some of that route and it’s particularly scenic. 🙂

Just to add that there’s some stunning pics of Hampshire where the author follows Wayfarer’s Walk which includes the Watership Down area.

Touring.

Also in the metro last week, on a fatbike. I know the writer too 😉

Oh, sorry, I’ll try again:
Wylye
South Downs
Peddars Way
Grizedale

and my “Sick as a dog” thread has died…..

I liked it all before it was famous

Thanks Esme. 😀

Better the public are warned about tramps on bikes, no?

To echo Rocketdog: the metro article was really good*
