Cheers mate! Thanks! What’s the point of adventuring if you can’t have a laugh 😆

Nice one 🙌 I've paddled out there for a bivvy many times but never in a pack raft carrying a bike. Enjoyed watching the video, thanks.

Thanks Pete! It’s a great little adventure isn’t it? I’ll be doing more packraft trips in the New Year so stay tuned :)

Also camp spot! 🙌🏼 I paddled to wild cat island earlier this year! Would have loved to camp on it! 🏕

Thanks mate! Nice - it’s quite popular with campers it seems :)

Nice to see someone making proper food for a change :). Used to canoe/whitewater raft but was never a swimmer lol. Would love to do something like this but I’d probably fall in lol

@Cycling366 Жыл бұрын

Yes I fancied a proper meal rather than a pot noodle or something from a packet 😆 Haha it can get quite wobbly so might not be the best idea

@@Cycling366 yes I tend to eat less when cycling but I do like some real food when I get hungry. A fun wee adventure and shows even the smallest outing can be an adventure. Look forward to living vicariously through more of your bikerafting adventures.

Brilliant video mate, that raft looks a topper! Lovely steed you have aswell, which bike is it exactly? I've got a 2019 Genesis longitude, looks pretty similar to yours

@Cycling366 Жыл бұрын

Cheers mate! It’s a Charge Cooker 2016 model. They don’t make them anymore but it was a great bike!

@somnambience Жыл бұрын

Lovely stuff, did you launch and recover the drone while you were packrafting? Definitely added to the film…

@Cycling366 Жыл бұрын

Thank you! Well I firstly launched it on the island and flew it over to my mid point but I had to recover it on the raft as it started hammering it down! I then relaunched it to get that shot and landed it on the bank where I was mooring 👍

Great micro trip. What model of raft? Pros or cons w it?

@Cycling366 2 ай бұрын

Thanks! It’s an Alpacka Caribou - I’ll do a separate video on it as it’s quite niche! Expensive but if you want to do this sort of thing it’s worth it

@sillychilly4308 Жыл бұрын

hi Just discovered your channel and enjoying your content.. Just out of interest can I ask what made you go for the charge cooker And what is your opinion now you've got a few miles on the clock and can I ask what size frame you have just that we seem to have the same bike with the topstone is yours the xl ?

@Cycling366 Жыл бұрын

Welcome to the channel! 👋 I wanted something simple and robust with fat tyres basically! Also was very cheap so I could spend a bit doing it up. :) I always go for the largest frame size for bikepacking bikes for relaxed geometry and more luggage clearance :) XL is usually my frame size

@Yorkiebar89 Жыл бұрын

Would be worth adding a note to viewers following in your footsteps that camping isn't permitted on Peel Island, so be respectful of the land (avoid going #2, and absolutely no fires) and be aware that you'll be asked to leave if a National Trust ranger comes by...

@Cycling366 Жыл бұрын

Yes! Technically is the same for pretty much anywhere in England. Leave no trace as I did!
