Looks amazing, beautiful views

hey Terry, you insprired me to my first wildcamp, on this hill at the end of my trip through Wales. before returning to London to catch my train, I decided to follow the Strawberry line and the Cheddar Gorge (unfortunately the road there was closed for a few days), did not have this spectacular weather with sunset, but nice enough and very windy at night... Thanks for this inspiration and all your videos!

My dear lady, Kms originated in France during the late 18th century ~ hence you, yourself, would appear to be 300 years behind the times. Besides, Can you imagine the Who singing ‘I can see for kilometres and kilometres,’ or the Proclaimers roaring chorus of ‘But I would walk 500 kilometres’?

I've never been but an ex-colleague had a relation on the islands and loved it there. His wife had a bad experience with the ferry due to the rough seas so he then used a helicopter flight from Penzance. I don't think it was cheap but he only had to chip in for the food for his two week holiday. I remember one year he had two weeks of rain. Most other times he came back with a tan.

I can get 100 miles on my e bike. 48 volt 24amp battery 250 watt. Fat tyred folding bike and british company with Chinese parts from a reputable Chinese factory that does everything in one factory unlike some chinese factories who do one thing then get other parts from other factories. You're not knowing then if they all have the best workmanship involved. The owner of the company I got my bike from visited the factory to make sure he would be getting the best parts and the best workmanship involved.

Now that looks really nice.😀

thanks for the video: where is this bag sold?

I don't understand why these bikes are so expensive.

Nice job mate. First campsite looked like a cannabis farm. Loved this video series.😀

Very nice. Rust free Mini Coopers as well😀.

That was brilliant Terry. I can remember me and my friends years ago cycling Dundry hill and hurtling down the other side to Chew magna. Used to cycle around that area regularly but not to where you went. Awesome views.👍

The weather is great, great outdoors

Nice one Terry, lovely views and not far away. The tent really blends in with the landscape, great for stealth camping. I follow 'Andy's Adventures' and I enjoy films of his camping trips. Recently some rotter stole his bike, not while camping but on a train! Hoping he gets another and continues camping and filming. At least you can fold the Brompton and keep it near you. I'm guessing the Brompton is all nicely bedded in after it's major overall. If you make a film about wild camping perhaps you could cover getting discovered and moved on? It would be something that worries me. Thanks for sharing your short trip.

Thank you Terry. Loved watching that. I am in 'camp 3' - would love to be brave enough to wild camp, so looking forward to your next video.

Thanks for sharing this with us Terry, the sunrise in particular was worth waiting for, wow! I’ll be interested to watch the next one as I do have concerns which prevent me camping wild. I love to tour alone but I enjoy getting to a campsite each evening where I feel safe. My favourite campsites are the little ones - a small paddock or field behind a village pub or farm with facilities. Anyway, looking forward to your next one!

Looks like a lovely trip mate. Will defo come along sometime.😀

Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Yep. The top 4 gears are overkill, not to mention the bottom 4 are too. 90% of the time gears 5-8 is all most anybody would need, but it sure must be nice to have that extra range available just in case.

Nice trip to the three of you! Great you found the tyre lever again 🤩 It’s lashing rain here at the moment - nice to be reminded of blue skies!!

Lovely camp. Hopefully next time I'll come as a great ride and camp.

Great video! How long after owning your new lacquered Brompton to the rest start appearing? Also I’m wondering which bike is best to buy that has the least amount of rust challenges. I live in the United States, Virginia, Central, Virginia specifically it’s Sunny most of the time nowhere near as much rain as you get in the uk. The fact that you write in the rain a lot more be a reason why you find you’re getting rust on your bikes? Thanks for the answers, I’m looking to get a new Brompton this fall, either a four-speed or 12 speed electric, for day-to-day commuting in my Hilltown, and I would replace the wheel and leave the battery at home, with one like yours on this video, for touring in Europe, one day, one day,

Lovely. . Just like Wincobank Terry 😊

Nastojaszcze pędzidło hehe

California viewer, love the videos, thanks for the ideas! Also, the drama of the intro always makes me chuckle. Safe riding 🤙🏽

Thank you Terry, helped me make my decision to switch to the conti’s.

Terry, I appreciate that you called this a "review" but it really wasn't. Perhaps this is cultural, but in my mind, a "review" is a critique, usually with plusses and minuses, likes and dislikes, what the reviewer would consider a product's strengths and weaknesses. In the end, a review would provide the reader, or viewer, with a concluding "thumbs-up" or "thumbs-down." Anyway, that is what first drew me to watch the video.

i travelled once with a vincita bag. it wasn’t a hard case but i thought i had padded it enough. Still got.a dent. i can’t imagine this will survive the rough handling of check in baggage

I've not been up the Pill path on my Brompton yet but I will. Great adventure you had even if you didn't camp. I would have come on your camp but I'm going on the new Forest one. Next time I will for sure!

Chains usually come with excess links so you can fit it to the bike of your choice. A chain link tool is your friend. When locking or opening the modern split links, I use a pair of slip-link pliers diagonally across the link. Across the wide sides to close it, the other way to open. This video assumes that your bike is fully clean. The jockey wheels on the tensioner will likely need to be dismantled for cleaning and re-lubrication. Much advised. On an early Brompton, use a medium -sized flat screwdriver. Later bikes need an allen key. The tensioner arm jockey-wheel screw is a little fiddly to get at, as you need to access through the wheel spokes. I take my whole adjuster mechanism off for a full strip (15mm spanner needed for the axle outer nut, and you will have to disconnect the gear-shift cable first). Brompton provides washers in this mechanism to facilitate alignment of the jockey wheels with the rear wheel sprocket. Make sure you put them back in the right places. On rear sprocket wear - the 1/8" sprocket on a Sturmey Archer hub is reversible, without affecting the chain line. If it's a bit worn, you can turn it around, and it is functionally a new one. No-one but you will know. I just did that on my 1991 T5 when fitting a new chain, yesterday.

Superb, thanks! After I get some more use out of my stock Marathons I'm switching to these!

Bike looks nice. Shame about the camping. I would of been interested 6th June trip but unfortunately am away on holiday.👍

I enjoyed this podcast, but I had trouble understanding your conversation. Please speak more clearly. I’ve listened to quite a few podcasts from England, and this is the first time I’ve had this problem. In general, I think you’re podcast is enjoyable for me as we are both older cycles, and still biking long distances. Thank you! Paul Buelterman, Florence, KY

Your tip was on the spot...I made it through two Marathon Plus tire changes on my Brompton. Couldn't have done it without your help. Thank you very much!

Fab work - it looks great and no doubt is moving better too!! An artist at work 🤩🏆

That turned out really well. I wasn't sure about the paint choice but it looks good. I've had trouble with headsets (not a Brompton) in the past. I'd bought 2 online which didn't fit and in the end contacted SJS who gave me some good advice. Strange, although I thought I had it all worked I was wrong. Once I had the correct parts it was an easy job. Every time I change gear cables the gear change is transformed, light and snappy. I guess you're going to have a small 'shakedown' ride before your over-nighter. Thanks for the series of videos.

Nice job. This will be a good reference if I decide to refurbish my 2015 Brompton.

Nice upgrade. Paintwork makes it look quite unique.

The cast iron hinge bosses are machine brazed, I believe. The rest of the brazing is manual.

Very cool bike. Wish I could afford one.

Hope you enjoyed my neck of the woods? 👍

The Brompton bike will fit in the IKEA Dimpa bag! And it is very cheap!!

Hello Terry. I decided to take the plunge and purchase the Brooks honey B17. When I removed the pentaclip , it fell apart as I was struggling to keep hold of it and keep it all together. ( I have Tremor in my hands ). So I turned to the font of knowledge, and watched your video. You told me/showed me all I needed to know about putting parts back together in the right order. Thanks Terry. I frequently return to watch your excellent videos.

You guys have link where to buy this tires for the states?

Subscribed! want to join this coming tour on June 8th..

You can fit a standard bottle cage to the handlebar stem . I have a Zefal Pulse L2 fitted after I purchased a couple of 3D printed clamps . They grip well .

I love watching people trying to do something they're not used to.
