  • Another bump for this. Took advantage of Planet X's bikepacking sale and 20% off payday special and now have a load of gear that's probably shit but that certainly needs testing out on a small, not-too-far-from London (pref. SE) ride/overnighter.

    Campsite near pub would be ideal and I didn't bother with the cooking stuff, so it'll need breakfast options nearby. Any thoughts?

    Have plans to camp down in Dorset on a cider farm where you get to stay in the orchard, adult only, pet free and tap room on site.

    It's not planned as a tour, instead using the bikes to get from station to camp and down to the coast at West Bay, but I'm sure there are plenty of route options.

    Waterloo to Crewkerne is within 10 miles of camp.

  • Wow, that looks brilliant.

    Probably further away than I fancy this weekend, but definitely one for the future.

  • I’m from crewkerne and can say the ride down to west bay and back is one of my go to’s. about 25k each way, but can easily add on some more mileage. Can recommend so places around there if you do go
    The train down is horrendous though, worst part about going back haha
