Back in February 2020 my mate and I started planning a bikepacking trip in England and Wales only to have it thoroughly cancelled by Covid. Especially since we live in Oslo, Norway. After three summer bikepacking stints on home soil, the 2020-idea was brought back to life and we are now pretty much set on going to do what we started planning.
I was getting great input in the Mint Crux thread, and we started building something of a route based on the ideas from @platypus.
We've set aside eight days including travel the first week of July. Current plan is to fly direct to Manchester Sunday morning and get going right away. Through Wales and end up in London on Saturday, pack our bikes and fly back home on Sunday. Without any detailed research this is the current route: https://www.strava.com/routes/23822838
Would love to have input from you all. We're super excited about this, and for me personally it's a bit special going to ride in the land of LFGSS, that has been with me since the days of sick fixie skidz.
These are our previous trips.
