For a people who are so obsessed with how inclement your weather is, it's always funny/odd when you're surprised by the weather 🤔🙃

@ebikescrapper3925 Ай бұрын

The British look at forecasts with the hope they will be right, we then moan when they are not. The British like to talk at the weather and many names for certain conditions

Amazed you've managed to pack so much kit on your bike, very inspirational actually, I'm now thinking about bike packing this year

Juliet - if your Bike starts wobbling in such a way, that is a sign that immediate attention is required.. I once ignored such a sign before a downhill in Derbyshire. Long story short, ended up curled up in a ball by the roadside waiting on an Ambulance due to the Bike falling apart during a swift downhill into Tideswell.. Safety First.

Yeah geez that looked dodgy. Do you know what failed on yours? Hope you’ve fully recovered.

Sorry to hear that! Yeah, you’re right. I did check it out but didn’t actually find out the cause. Just went away. Mysterious!

These are my favourite type of videos you post, as well as the simplicity of going for a local ride and a cake stop. That's what got me subscribing. I'm not into the races so much. Love a good bike packing vid too, I can imagine doing it, it's relatable for me. I'm there with ya 😅

It looked like you girls landed on paradise island! 5:45 really made an impression on me. You are really vibing to these camping spots, so much sportier and bolder then posher alternatives. Very inspirational too! So far so good; some ferry miscalculations but it's all good! 😁😊

Hey Juliet, hope you're well!? I've been following this little fun trip-ette. I've been following your channel for quite some time, and after some inspiration from yourself, and chatting with you in the comments I bought the Alpkit Soloist for my own camping adventures. The Soloist is a great tent (thanks for your input on this purchase😊), but I'm very interested in the Alpkit tent you're using on this adventure!? I've caught several of Katie's posts, and in one of hers, she said you'd damaged the flysheet of your new tent..oops! I was just wondering what you think about it in comparison to the Soloist? What an amazing place(s) the pair of you have found, looks brilliant! Take care Juliet 😊

@MarkNeal75 Ай бұрын

I had a wobble like that once, never again. I think it ourselves to do with weight distribution on the front end. I have riding multiple trips with a variety of bag setups and never had a wobble. On one trip I had that slight wobble but never again? So yeah I think it’s a packing thing and not a mechanical thing

@SwampyDuckRidesAgain3636 Ай бұрын

Living a mile from the Arran ferry I kinda take it for granted a bit but I do love doing the islands. Cracks me up at you English pronounciation Arran is nice but Islay has the most amazing sunsets and the last few weeks we have had the most amazing weather even when it’s been raining in Englandshire🤣. Do think you are missing out on some of the wonderful sights on the islands though but it’s a great area for cold water dipping. Midges what midges🤣

I'm disappointed that you don't really seem to be riding with Katie. Rather travelling the same route at the same time. I was hoping for more interaction between you both. Discussing your cycling journeys, experiences and the kit you use. Katie should have waited for you at the Ferry. Or before!

@KatieKookaburra Ай бұрын

I had some mechanical issues and sorting the while Juliette was at the cafe. I was riding up and down testing the tyre (was going flat argghhhh). Then it was rubbing on the frame so I went down to wait for the ferry and sorting that while it came in. Went on and thought Juliette would be behind me... but turned to see the doors lifting hahahaha. She thought it was 1.50 not 1.15pm. Makes for a better story right?

Thank you, thank you, thank you for actually riding gravel roads and camping out. Using the title "bikepacking" when KZfaqrs ride 100% pavement from posh hotel to hotel doesn't fit the term. So glad to see both you and Katy on a trip together, I enjoy both your channels
