What a very resourceful husband you have - loved all those little tweaks he has done to make things work better for you!! 🤗 Such a nice place to be able to set up your mobile hotel room so close to home too 😎 xx

"If you enjoy what I'm doing, leave a comment" - Susanna, I ALWAYS enjoy your videos! You have a child like enthusiasm for riding and adventuring that brings joy to my heart and makes me smile. Your PMA (Positive Mental Attitude) towards any adversity gives me optimism for the rest of the world (sorry, that's a big responsibility), well, it cheers me up, anyway. The fact that you find little indulgences to make the camping more comfortable is wonderful. One notable feature of this excursion is that, in the words of Dorothy of OZ, I think, you don't have look for adventure any further than your own backyard. Great if you can travel hither and yon, but if you can do even a short bit, DO IT! Thanks for all your videos!

Norwegian here, I have been following you for some time, but I was surprised and impressed today when I heared you speak Swedish😊

That was super interesting Susanna, thanks so much for sharing. Really useful and helpful information

Crammed full of handy hints and tips! Thank you for sharing this Susanna, it will be helpful to old hands and those just setting out on the cycle touring path. Also, for all of us nosey ones it’s always fascinating to see what others have in their luggage! 🤣

As always, Susanna, brilliantly informative without being one of those very serious-minded ’lectures’ on wild camping that are all over the internet. Perfect!

Wonderful to see you again. I love the way you look after your gear, some of which you’ve had for years, amazing. What a lovely spot you found too. Loved the video.

Susanna, you are truly inspiring. Thanks for all the small details that make all the difference. Peace & Love.

Hello Susanna, Thanks for the video... lots of useful information... and great to see you looking so well. Take lots of care. Paul,,

Always love watching your videos Susanna. You’ve made me want to dig out my trangia again! Life can be really stressful sometimes and your videos always provide me with some peace, inspiration and awesome tips! Thank you! ❤

What a pleasure to go on this adventure with you, Susanna! Thank you! I am a bit of a wild camping nut and Hilleberg fan (I have an Unna) and have been a subscriber to your channel for a couple of years. The last year, for various reasons, I have not been camping much, however. Also (and independent from my wild camping interests), I am a cycling nut (generally, but esp. mountain biking), and recently bought my first Brompton (which I absolutely love). A couple of my wild camping friends are going bikepacking in Anglesey in June and I'm now considering whether to join them on my Brompton (they will be on road/mountain bikes). Watching your videos is an inspiration - not just to see the logistics involved, but also to see your adventurous spirit and interesting personality. For me, a significant part of the adventure when I go on a wild camping trip or a (non-camping) bike tour is in the planning itself. Solving puzzles. Folding and packing things cleverly into compact spaces. Being inconspicuous and full of hidden surprises (i.e. the rucksack I'm carrying or the bag that's got a secret bike in it). I like that I can go on fairly niche, eccentric adventures, away from what most people tend to do. My inaugural Brompton adventure was to take it with me to a conference in Vienna, as my regular checked baggage, then to commute to the conference venue and do some leisure cycling while over there. I'm just wondering whether I would be able to keep up with my friends on their tour of Anglesey. I have a two-speed C-line, which I've converted to a four-speed by putting a double-ring chainset on. I don't have a front derailleur, but can use my heel to change onto the small ring for steep hills. However, changing back to the big ring requires me to get off the bike and use my hands, so it could slow us down a bit. It's clear that I am talking myself into trying it though. Having watched your video, I feel inspired to join the dots between my two hobbies. Also, now that you've shown us all the helpful cycling gadgets that your husband has made, I can cite these and ask my wife to make me some too. She's expert with a sewing machine and has been making her own clothes for years, so I might ask for some fancy pants as a starter 😁. Thanks again and I wish you many more adventures!

Brilliant. Thanks you for all this tiny details, and for vibe, and pancakes is 👌🏻. And wish you good weather on your future adventures.

Canada 🇨🇦 west coast here. Really enjoyed your video. Thanks for sharing your helpful efficiency and comfort ideas, some of which I’ll be adopting. Lovely spot. Stay safe, and happy trails. 🙏🏼🐾⛺️

Excellent as ever. One thing I do is if I boil any water for cooking, not drinking as you did for the potatoes. I drain the hot water into a container put a cover on it then use it for cleaning pans, plates, cutlery etc usually when I've finished eating. Why waste it by just draining away and greasy things are hard to clean without it.

Hello Susanna, I’m going out in 3 weeks for the summer from London, though not on a Brompton. Combo this year; bikepacking with hiking, on an e-assist bike, expecting more trail than tarmac. Needs a catchy concept name :) I love your solution for the front bag. You’re obv. aware of the need for weight distribution so I understand how chuffed you are. Kudos to hubby! It’s great how awareness has made everyone innovative. This year, I’m replacing an Ortlieb with an Osprey 33 rucksack (in a waterproof sack, which keeps straps tidy on the rack and dry). Tucks right under the saddle and extends back on a pannier rack. Bought fab Rok straps to help. I don’t think you have a head net, I think I will this time - for Scottish midges. It’s very impressive how you plan, dialogue and edit your videos. Love all the angles and the personal bits. Well done and happy travels. Andy

I’m very late coming to the party, and only just found your channel. I just want to say what an amazing inspiration you are. Thanks to you I’ve decided to try my first bike packing trip this year. I also want to say thank you for showing us southerners are not all unfriendly snobs, and we do like a chat too! Keep happy.

This is the very definition of living lightly on the land. What an inspiration you are. I hope many learn from you.

Great video Susanna. You are an inspiration. It would be interesting to understand a bit more about how you navigate on multi-day trips. How much you use paper maps or phone based apps etc. Thanks again,

Thank you, Susanna, for sharing this great video. Your advice is based on experience and intelligence. I still learned a lot. I'm going to apply your tips this summer. Thank you for your generosity. Long and healthy life.

My grandma used to use sand to wash the pots and pans when we had picnics. Gets the soot off in no time

I wish one day … l’ll be a person like you. Susanna, you are wonderful. This summer, I’ll go camping by myself (nobody with me for first time) and I’ll be with my brommie and (maybe) a little trailer (Burley). I’ll bring you in my thoughts. 🧡

Wow! That was really informative, thank you ! I loved the reference to “it’s like a little hotel room”. What amazing values you have and you are an inspiration to all of us 😊. Happy travels 😁😁

I always enjoy your videos. Thank you for this little " behind the scenes" look at your camping setup. Wishing you many more camping adventures: which will hopefully mean many more of your lovely videos!

It is so nice to see you back !!🥰Your videos are always brilliant. I am looking forward to seeing your new and very inspiring adventures. Greetings from Spain 😊

Once again, Susanna I’m amazed by how much “stuff” you get on your Brompton. Not only do you manage to make coffee and pancakes for breakfast but you have an actual chair to sit on whilst you eat them. Puts my rather feral bike packing diet to shame…😄

Love your videos. Great to see how you pack everything and organise your gear

Lovely well thought out video. With the classic phase when you set the tent up. It’s like having your own hotel only cheaper.

What a wonderfully informative and useful video. I love that you do all this on a Brompton, too. I enjoy your videos so much 😁

Thanks a lot for doing this video never fails to amaze me how much you can carry

I genuinely thought you were pulling the kitchen sink out when you pulled that large last bag out 😂! Good overview though, thank you 😊

Very good, you really do look after your gear. Be careful of them ticks, you can get Lyme disease. I put smidge on my legs, which helps.

This nitty-gritty insight is great, reminds me of an infinitely better designed & executed version of how I used to carry my surveying gear on an old Raleigh. Brilliant as always.

Thanks for another lovely inspiring video. Cant wait to get going again this year, you have really fired me up.

So happy to find your latest video today, Susanna. Thank you. I’m off to buy some strawberries this weekend so I can make my own portable larder! Brilliant idea.

It feels like welcoming back dear, old friends when I take my camping gear out and set it up. Even if I'm on a multi-day trip and it was just that morning that I'd packed them away! I just got back from hiking the West Highland Way and I swear the thing I enjoyed most was the wild camping. I stayed in 7 epic "hotel rooms" with my tent and then one actual smelly hostel in Ft William LOL

Perfect timing, a new video from you and one from Miriam close together. They always bring an uplift in my mood. You seem to have the system of packing everything very nicely sorted out. As it seems like you've cycled/ camped for some time have you changed what you do or don't take with you? I've heard tales of cyclists on long tours taking far too much and travelling lighter the next time. Thank you for sharing what you take and some tips.

Thank you so much, that was a brilliant video for me a new camper

Lovely video. I used to cycle camping years ago and watching this takes me back. One day I managed to tip a whole tin mug of just made, very hot, tea over my foot first thing in the morning bringing up a huge blister that made cycling very painful and that sort of put me off. Seeing you go through all your equipment reminded me of one of my proudest possessions for camping, a large piece of hessian sacking I found on the road side which made a perfect carpet for the porch of my tent. I used to be organised like you when pitching the tent so that everything was always in the same place so I knew where to find stuff. Thank you so much for sharing I really enjoyed the film. Good luck in your future adventures.

Susanna you are such an inspiration. I’ve just got back from a bike tour in South Korea and watching your video made me want to pack my bike and head on out again.

Love your videos, your joy de vi is infectious, your bike packing gear and choices are helpful for anyone considering something similar. Hope you are well, God bless 👍

Great to see another video. 🤗

Thank you for this video. This goes into more indeph into what you use. Hope you have health. I know what your going through but a different way. Glad for your videos!

Wow, just incredible how much kit you squeeze on to the bike, and how carefully everything is thought out. This is like a training video for the special forces! Really tempting to try it out.

Aw, great little video Susanna, thanks for sharing. Just started watching your videos on your last journey and since then I've been so Brompton curious. I love how streamline your kit is. I'm a cycle tourer also and lord knows my kit just seems to be getting heavier. You have inspired me to take a good look at my kit and be ruthless with what to carry. I did get a couple of good little tips from you, in particular how you deal with the washing-up. Thanks again😊

Thanks for this! I've been considering buying a brompton for bike camping and your setup looks perfect. I'll bookmark as my go to list of what to take.

Another fantastic video. Thank you Susanna. I’ve always wondered how you carry all your gear. It always seems like you have the tardis version Ortleibs. Your husbands DIY skills are very impressive. Does he cycle too?

Thanks Susanna, brilliant the way you’ve got thing organized and what a beautiful spot by the lake 😃

So relaxing to watch, thanks. Hope the summer is great for you. ATB.

I recently bought Tannus airless tyres for my Brompton as I'm going on a bit of a tour this summer. I quite like them, they are like riding normal tyres without worrying about a puncture. I retired to the Norfolk Broads and now I don't have to go far for little wild camping jaunts. I have one of those pack rafts which are super light and small and I can get my Brompton on it with all my gear. It allows me to find places where I'm not going to get disturbed. I'm on a rolling fast at the moment and your cooking has tempted me. I fast for 36 hours and then have a 12 hour window for eating normally. It has been really successful and I am currently extending it to a rolling 48 hour fast. Great video. All the best.

Hi Susanna, thank you for sharing your setup. There are so many choices nowadays that it can be daunting finding what works. I have just bought a Hilleberg Enan and looking forward to many adventures. Take care.

Very useful advice, thank you

Always very inspiring and enjoying, so light, so simple, so evident in fact. Thank you Susanna for keaping us on our bikes and in our dreams

Some very good information 👍

Always enjoy your videos. Thank you

Such a beautiful place.

I enjoyed that video, well done it was up to your usual high standard.

Love your videos, I really find them inspiring.

Great video.

Great video. Thanks for sharing 👍 🙂

Very nearly special forces standard of camp craft ! Loving it.

Awesome video,respect.Happy cycling.Be safe

Thx Susanna, really usefull and beautifully filmed!

Great video, I love these 'gear' vids for camping. I used to not bother about a chair but now I'm older I love my trekology chair (similar to the chair one by helinox but a third of the price). I also now bring a tiny aluminum backpacking table 30x 20 x 8 cm 250grams so as keep my food preparation off the ground, it also serves as a bedside table in the tent for my cup and tablet to watch vids. For food storage I use noakes A4 clear sealable bags. I'd love a Hilleberg tent but they are sooo expensive, I like the look of the Unna as its simple, strong and quick to set up and pack away. Trangia 25, I've had it for years too, love it with the alcohol burner, quiet, cheap, clean burning. Super impressed by you speaking Swedish. 😎👍🚴‍♂️🏕️🍝☕

Thank you for sharing your excellent video.

Really enjoy these vids, always bring a smile to my face.

So interesting, thanks Susanna 😊👍

Nice to see you again, Susanna. Love your videos so much

Very enjoyable Susanna , take care 🍀

Fascinating, Susanna. I agree with your comments about personal hygiene. When I was backpacking, I always carried a small, lightweight folding bowl and will, again, if I get away on the trail this year,. A cupful of warm water is sufficient to get a good, all-over wash and freshen one up after a day on the trail. I also carried a flask - it was great to have a hot drink without having to get out the stove during a break.

Loved this video!!! Very well thought out and informative! Thank you.

Another great video! Thanks for all the details, ist's really helpful! 👍

Thanks Susanna! Have a great summer.

great video susanna ....thanks

Always enjoy your videos. I saw this one pop up as I was going away for the weekend and could not believe I'd have to wait 2 days before I could watch it!! As ever you bring great pleasure and enjoyment by documenting your adventures. You have a brilliant set-up enhanced by your lovely husband and it is obvious why you love your little hotel room so much! The views across the lake - waking up to that!! Wow! Thank you for all the work that goes into recording and editing so that we can share the experience. Love it....... hoping too that you are now well and remaining so x

Always a pleasure to see your videos! Thanks for sharing your experience!

Nice little tips for me! Thanks for sharing!

GREAT JOB, YOUR VIDEO ARE REALLY AWESOME! I LIKE THEM VERY MUCH!!!!

Brilliant to see you again, inspiring as ever. What a beautiful place to camp.

Fabulous. Thank you so much Susanna 👍

Susanna you are such an inspiration. Great!

Great view. We are camping next month. Can't wait now. 😘

Excellent. The result of much experience and consideration.

Very inspiring video! thanks for sharing this with us ❤🏆

Great video, very informative 👍🏼thrilled to see you looking so well🙂

Always enjoy seeing gear and how it’s packed and used!

Thanks for sharing your bike packing knowledge and tips. Very much appreciated! ☺️

Very inspiring ! Thanks a lot for all the information.

Great video. Love how you have the necessities of camping down to a fine art. Thank you for sharing your methods, tricks and experience with others. You give me inspiration to actually go wild camping by bike in Australia sooner rather than later. Thank you.

Really generous to share this - loved the v practical breakdown and tips . The army folding bowl - brilliant idea! Thank you

So many useful tips here that I've not seen anywhere else. Because of you wearing the decathlon jacket, I bought one too. I love it! As you said it's so cosy to wear after exercising and weighs so little. Thank you for making this video. Happy cycling.

Another great film as usual. I find myself relaxing to the sound of your narration. Bromptons are so versatile. Can't wait to get out on the road.

Lovely to see another video from you. So interesting, I literally take notes of your kit and comfort hacks. Wonderful relaxing vlogs. Thankyou.

You are kind to the environment. Salute you

Great video looking into your set up, some useful tips that we are definitely going to use, Thanks for sharing looking forward to future videos 🤗

I just came across your video, and I just had to comment to say Thank you for the video and sharing your processes and outlook to life and zen. Wishing you continued good health and staying free from ticks!

Enjoyed watching how you organise your luggage for your trips on the bike. Good to share this type of practical information. Looking forward to your next video😀👍

Very informative! You're resourceful and experienced, and make it look easy. Your cold swim must have been refreshing!

A lovely and informative video and thanks for sharing. Yes everyone needs a system to work with and so it goes things go to plan with the right equipment which you certainly have. Already looking forward to your next adventure so welldone 👏👋

I'm hoping to do some bike camping with my Brompton this summer. Thanks for making this video - super helpful!

Very nice video. I used the eyedropper hack immediately - just the thing I was looking for! Thank you. Also, it is amazing how much equipment you are able to carry on the small Brompton.
