    Juliet is just like my very own catwoman who doesn't want to hear nothing about water! 😾
    And Laura resembles my neighbour's cat who's eager to dip into whatever body of water is near her! 😺
    Thanks a lot to the both of you for having shared the good laughs with us; the countryside scenery was just marvellous and made us breathe into freedom! 😁😃 =]

    great series of vlogs Laura, looked like a brilliant ride along the south downs, albeit with a mechanical - but you guys seemed to have a blast and giggled all the way through :) proper fun on the bikes, I must get back on the downs soon, your vlogs have defo inspired me to make it happen again this year - hardtails for life - not just for the downhill to Eastbourne :)

    Great video series - really enjoyed them thanks. Would love to do the south downs way myself, but it's a bit far away. Hoping to do the king alfred way in July though.

      @@lauragriffithsoutdoors King Alfreds Way is a 220 mile circular ride which (officially) starts at the King Alfreds statue in Winchester. Takes in a bit of the SDW, quite alot of the Ridgeway, Salisbury plain etc. Same great rewarding views, but climb is alot less brutal!

      Hi Steve, i didn’t starve the ride to save phone battery but if you visit southdownsway.org/activities/cycling/cycling-the-south-downs-in-3-days/
      You can find the GPX for the cycle route

      Yes I have a mini lock, it's a small pull out cable with a combi lock, enough to stop someone just running off with it

    Great video! May need to free range some cream/milk from one of those cows or pack a tin of milk. Can't have tea without milk. That is just not civilized.
