    As I was going to St. Ives
    I spied a bike, Ed Pratt astride
    Aishola rode behind that bloke
    I swear it real, I do not joke
    They had no cat, be glad of that
    But on that bike, the two were sat
    Up steep hills, down to the shore
    I hope these two ride many more

    Hi Ed, your tandem videos popped up after posting my own mini tandem tour a few weeks ago. My wife and I are now making our way through your World Unicycle Tour, which is keeping us thoroughly entertained through our 10 days of Covid quarantine after testing positive last week for this bloody virus. It’s nice to see a fellow Somerset explorer on UA-cam. We have currently just finished the China series and have moved onto South Asia, it looked an incredible adventure, one in very jealous of! Well done, and a massive thanks for the videos, and helping us get through what would otherwise have been a miserable week!!

I had a place to camp right on the beach overlooking the Pacific Ocean, a Pizza , two beers , a small bottle of bourbon and a piece of carrot cake...how do you like them apples?

    When I'm touring and can't find a suitable place to camp I just look for a place to lie down. Assuming it isn't going to rain that is lol. I've slept in ditches, behind hedges, in a graveyard, on the loading dock of a post office, anywhere I could be out of sight. No tent or sleeping bag, at most I'd roll out a tarp to lie on. Never got much rest those nights but more than I would have gotten riding through the night.
