- Hope you enjoy this film the trip was quite spontaneous with hardly any planning or training, hence i got lost a lot, bike cost £250 pounds off gumtree, ride turned into a great little adventure hope film is not to boring to watch.
Just found this little gem. What an inspirational little film. So nice to see someone just having an adventure and not worried about breaking records or A to B speeds.
A nice change to the manic LEJOG vids that are done in 8-10 days, looking to do this in 2020 at 52 year old and aiming for 50-60 miles a day, self supported camping. Should be fun.
Yours is a great video, Cheers.
I am 69 with a heart condition. I have cycled everyday nearly in my life. After seeing this I am going to do it. Many thanks
Just brilliant, dangerously recklessly bloody brilliant. I wish I had a fraction of your fortitude and spirit. I’ve walked and bothered in the highlands and it can be very daunting. Bloody well done chap. 👏
I loved that! Smiled the whole way through. The navigation through Scotland was hilarious.
I've watched a lot of bike-packing videos and this is my new favourite. I love the 'make it up as I go along' approach and you've really inspired me to embark on this kind of adventure soon. Great stuff.
I have watched many of the LE/JoG videos on YT but this one is by far has been the most enjoyable, interesting and inspirational one. Total respect and admiration for your achievement Jon, and for the spirit of the whole trip. The video is beautifully edited and I just love the soundtrack..great stuff!!
Superb, great video. What a calm and infectious personality you have.
Lost and found. British understatement throughout. Great trip.
This was brilliant Jon. I loved how casual you made it feel and how you approached problems with real optimism. Reall enjoyed, looking to do the trip beginning of Sep.
Wonderful film pal. I've been thinking of doing this for some time now to see the lovely islands we live on first hand. I admire your free spirit attitude towards the journey. Super stuff ;)
The most enjoyable E2E film I've ever seen. Your spirit of adventure was evident throughout the film! Many thanks for sharing.
Great filming. Now that is a proper adventure!
Great video! Absolutely loved the spontaneity of it and the 'make it up as you go along'. Very inspirational!
there's 30+thousand lochs in scotland and i think you must have seen most of them,great video
I like your plan without a plan attitude to it that is the best way to have a wee adventure 👍
Well done, really enjoyed your ride. Thanks for posting it.
Superb vid.
Doing lejog on Sunday and watching a few vids. Yours most enjoyable so far, like your smiles when off piste 😂👍
Top job
Really nice story telling and camera workmen-ship - taking into account that you were by yourself! Well done, looking forward doing my own trip.
Another great adventure! Thanks for sharing
A great little film, thanks.
Absolutely brilliant video, just finished watching the Jordan Trail. Keep up the adventures!
that was one of the best lands ens to john o groats films ive watched and iam glade its just not me that gets lost thanks for posting and well done for having the balls to camp where you like under the circumstances .hopefully if allowed iam cycling from devon to noth wales in june its only 300 miles but well exited to do it,regards paul.
That was awesome mate, loved it . 👍
Really enjoyed this one, great film, relaxed pace, not having to definitely be meeting target destinations all the way. Well done. 👍
Very relaxing watching your journey... I had to pause and reminisce as I ran Loch Ness Marathon 2021 fabulous times and journey there!
Great film, very well shot and a great ethos, not all who wander are lost apart from Jon on his bike for a little while! great stuff look froward to watching more like that.
Well done mate what a great effort
Hi Jon, just watched this and it's really inspiring. Great the way you just too your time and enjoyed the experience. Will check out your other vids as well. All the best.
Jon this is an INCREDIBLE film! I was sent this to watch as I'm doing LE to JOG in September. Well done matey x
I really enjoyed watching this. Well done. Very brave to go off road in the wilds of Scotland. You're a true adventurer. Did this trip myself tother way in 2001. But I took the soft option of B&Bs. Journey of a lifetime, you'll never forget it.
Simply done, yet thought provoking. Not to mention inspiring. Thanks.
Thanks so much for your Film. Especially you getting lost in Scotland - loved it. As well the very good musician on the road and the fulminant (land's) end. ❤️
GREAT VIDEO, respect.
Just watching this while on the bike at the gym training for my attempt in April. Great video and well done 👍🏻
Epic! Love the attitude
Beautiful pictures and music to go with it. Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍
6:40 "What not riding across"? Great film once again!
Great adventure and thanks so much for the video.
Wow! What a great video. I really enjoyed it. Beautifully made and so fun to ride along with you. Thanks so much. This made my day.
You're a nutter Jonnyboy! Great to see you've still got the adventure gene.
Great video and you seem a great down to earth person!
Great video, hardly boring..real adventure well impressed..
Oh jeez!
That was some crazy route! Well done, great video!
Loved it. Thanks for an inspirational snippet of the adventure.
You're an inspiration, excellent film and adventure, thanks for sharing. I now don't have an excuse for putting mine off any longer.
So glad I found this, got to be the best video I have seen on UA-cam, thankyou for taking me on your journey 🙂 brilliant!!
Man you had me in suspense during the bad gravel road areas. I thought you would give up! (Many would!) You seem to have a carefree casual attitude about it all and that's inspiring. I'm sure you yelled and screamed a lot though! Haha! And to think you did all that on a cheap used bicycle. Most people wouldn't even attempt something like that unless they had at least a 2000 quid bike and hotel along the route. Seems like you had fun and proves that if you have the will there's always a way!
Epic. Looks like a brilliant tour. Cheers from the states.
Thoroughly enjoyed that ... great trip and well balanced account of it too.
Excellent mate, thanks for that
Excellent little video, really enjoyed it, you certainly did it your own way, well done.
Enjoyed your production mate and thanks for the work you put into it :-)
Absolutely brilliant video. Many thanks for sharing.
Well done and a great film. Such an adventure and much better than a pre planned trip.Thanks
as other`s have said .. best E2E vid by far done this ride twice, and now you got my grey matter going .for poss 2022
Brilliant video. Love from America. Loved "Wash Day"! ;) I would love to just be able to take off like this and go on an adventure. Here in America, we have a lot of trails to hike. as soon as my boss retires, I believe I will just take off. Getting lost has never sounded so good.
hi tonya
iam glad you have enjoyed the videos hopefully more to come. Editing a recent trip to India now.
please don't wait until your boss retires?
jon
Nice vid - loved the wild Scotish section. Good to see a shot of the Bridgwater/Taunton canal .
Great Video Well done.I don't usually watch to the end of the video. honestly thought you were going to buy a new bike. Once again well done.
What an amazing a adventure
I really enjoyed watching this, fella. 👍😊
Great video mate. Done it myself a couple of times cycling to lands end from London and back to London from jog. Really loved your calmness when getting lost in Scotland. Really great video 👍🏽
Wow, great achievement. You certainly are extreme and can cope without comforts. Good camera work which really adds to the film but must've added a lot of time for you. I appreciate it.
A lovely film and quite possibly the most English thing I have ever seen.
Good on you Jon - a wonderful video and an even more magnificent achievement. Hugh
What a cracking video!!! Thanks for sharing your adventure with us thoroughly enjoyed it, im getting ready to do my LEJOG (Lands End to John O Groats) in August 2018 here's hoping my video turns out to be every bit as good as yours.
Brilliant loved this . my mums gunna watch it in a minuite.
Wow what a fantastic adventure. Well done 👍 😊👍
First of your videos i have come across - nice one, thanks. I am looking forward to watching the others
Great video, good effort on your own. Watching as got my ride in few months.
Great video. Brilliant fun. Loved the music too.
Great video mate 👍🏽
Great adventure and well filmed, good effort, bravo
Great film great little adventure and spirit.... urge anyone to see jons other films
Nice one, you have an independent spirit. Thinking of giving it a go myself in a couple of months hence surfing a few videos.
Enjoyable watching , you should enter masterchef,I can imagine Greg wallace' reaction "Your pasta and rice dish is inspired, it's just a dash of Tabasco sauce away from perfection Jon"
brilliant video, cant wait for the next adventure !
Great video - cycled and camped all my life (On and off) and I am itching to try this cycle touring thing. It's only taken me 55 years to get round to it! Overweight with dodgy knees and creaking other bits - I'm determined to do as much of it as I can while I still can.
Glad I stumbled across your video. I Jogle'd May 2016. By way of a somewhat different route. Love your sense of adventure. I live 8 miles from Lands End... I agree the complex is a shite hole !! lol. Cheers Neil
Bloody beauty again Jon. That Busker was absolutely ace! Number 1 piece of advice anyone setting of on this ride would be?
That's a full suspension bike trail for sure brother
Really enjoyed this, hope to see more from you soon.
Lot's of fun. I enjoyed that very much more than the spandex-clad speedsters' videos.
A great vid, thanks. Oh, and that Hunter’s Lodge is a Bothy, you knew that right? There’s no ‘K’ in Loch either. Your map reading skills are dangerously hopeless, but you knew that too? You seem to have dived headlong into this trip, regardless. I love it! The Adventure starts when you take a wrong turn, or some unforeseen occurrence comes along I don’t want to sound too Cheesey but your trip is inspirational! Once again, thank you.
Awesome film. Loved it.
enjoyed keep up the good spirit and energy, positive attitude wins the day.
Ahhhh I can't wait to do this ride! I cycled 1,000 miles along the Wild Atlantic Way in 2017 and have been looking forward to this ever since. Great movie! Thanks so much @jonepoulter7524
Enjoy your ride some people take a route that passes through my village of Thorverton on the outskirts of Exeter.
feel free to pop in for a
Cupper
All the best jon
@@jonepoulter7524 Oh fantastic! I’ve got a friend in Exeter. Hopefully it won’t take me too long to get back there 🤩
Great video, nicely edited. With all your faffing about at the lochs I thought you might not make it to Cornwall but I'm glad you did. I liked your make it up as you go along style.
Great film which has inspired me to think about doing something similar!
Great trip, really original vlog. Well done.
Love your style, nice one..!
Inspiring bro, will do it myself one day
Brilliant film well done you, time for me to get my bike out and do it myself
Stunning vidio, some great moments. £7000 for a bicycle!!!!
Ha ha, lovely little insight into how a bike ride SHOULD be. Getting lost, who cares? Hilarious, your trip looks so much more fun than those head down, see nothing trips we are used to on UA-cam. You have a great attitude and I enjoyed the video, thank you for sharing. p.s. anyone tell you that you are the spit of Quint in Jaws (Robert Shaw), albeit you are a little leaner :)
I really enjoyed your film thank you
love your attitude! haha great watch
Merci pour ce film très agréable Thanks for all informations nice adventure
A great adventure Jon would have been nice to see more of the trip well done and ATB Coops 🍻🚴
Lovely unpretentious record of jogle adventure. Much enjoyed and thanks!
Really enjoyed that - thanks.
You've done it again. I thought, after some of your other adventures, you may think this one a bit on the tame side. But, no !! You seemed to have a great time ( certainly made a great video ) I think it's your fantastic adventurous spirit. Mind you, I think you should have saved this one for 2020 and made it a COVID adventure.
