I'm new to kayaking, but I'm not new to outdoor adventure. And for me, packing 2 or 3x the expected calories needed for the adventure is non negotiable. I look at my body like a car, and I try to keep my vehicles on full tanks because you never know

Very interesting John, always interesting to see what people do and don't take with them! Filter coffee is first on the list for me, the joy of an open canoe! Thanks as ever for sharing look forward to watching your trip.

Enjoyed that mate, good to see your set up. I'm a sucker for a drone shot and some of yours are pretty stunning, just be pretty challenging operating a drone over water while paddling. Looking forwards to your next trip, take care.

Great especially for beginners to get a taste. Would love to get a value/cost factor aspect added as info ... I'll check the link, maybe already there.

Someone has mentioned costs before, if i do an update video ill be sure to include it. But for reference what your seeing here is a culmination of a lot of years camping gear, I 100% dont have that level of cash to just throw at gear in one go

Is it the 100 tea bags that make you British or the Snickers and boiled sweets? 😬🤔. Great video with a great order, layout and gear breakdown. Thx. How do you like your Hornet Bikepack tent?

Sorry, how do you like the Dragonfly Bilepack tent? And kayak? Good boat?
@TheGrayExplorer 2 жыл бұрын
I actually made a full review on the tent it’s on my channel. The boat? Hard to say it’s my first boat so I’ve nothing to compare it too. However I really like it, it’s really opened up a lot of adventures that I couldn’t have had before

What t-bags? Only 100 😂 good video btw. Could you add a costing video too?
@TheGrayExplorer 3 жыл бұрын
I could but my missus watches the channel so it might not be the smartest move to find out how much this stuff really costs 😂😂

Just found your channel and think its excellent. Working through the Source of the Tyne videos as we are visiting Kielder in Oct 23. A quick question what was the kayak lock that you showed in this video.

It’s the Bosvision 4-digit combination padlock with cable. They’re about 18quid on Amazon 👍🏻

Thanks for the sub! I’m 6foot size 10 feet as well. The floor has plenty of movement to go in or out to suit your size. I think you’ll be fine at 6’2. Hope you find the boat your looking for
