  • Hi guys.

    HP and I are planning the next summer trip and UK is on the agenda. Had a brief look at bikepacking.com, but other than that all we know is that it's happening in July and I'm guessing we're spending around 10 days. Airports that work well to fly in and out off are London, Manchester and Edinburgh, but adding a train ride could also be done if starting of finishing further north or south is essential.

    We realize we can't avoid rain, but we wouldn't mind less headwind than last year. Any tips to a route and places to visit would be cool.

  • Happy days. If you come to London I can offer a place to stay and some spirited local rides and campouts.

    In terms of places to go, a nice itinerary would probably be London to Bristol along the Thames and Kennet and Avon rivers/canals, then Bristol into Wales, up through the Black Mountains into Hay on Wye and onwards to Machynlleth and Anglesey. That should take you about 6-8 days, gravel bike friendly, and you can get the train back at the end.
