Bit of a niche query, but on the off-chance – has anybody here tried taking an ipad mini or similar on a tour to do a bit of work?

I'm daydreaming about getting a bit of a solo trip in this year but im short on holiday days, so am considering doing half a day of riding and half a day of work (marketing nonsense, mostly planning and copywriting).

Hurdles I anticipate are:
- ipad mini not being big enough to really do any work on
- me not wanting to do any work and then just not doing it
- poor signal in rural france
- breaking the ipad due to cramming it into a frame bag/seat pack

Depends what you do for work. Surely and airbook or similar would be ideal.
We worked from the van on 4G for a while. Just find a cafe or campsite to charge.

That’s just what someone who wants me to buys Tailfin would say…

I hear, and tbh I have considered that, not least coz that’s what I use for work anyway. This year though I don’t want to buy any more stuff, as much as it would match my cargo cages :)
