  • The third instalment of our 'Velo' bikepacking series, filmed , directed and edited by Friction Collective
    Over the past 4 years, Friction Collective filmmaker Jack Davies and friends have ventured out on their bikes to cross new countries, learn new customs, eat weird things and create some lighthearted but beautiful films from their adventures.
    Well 2020, as for everyone, was a little different and they had stay close to home. This 450 mile cycling trip around Wales may not have been as exotic as previous endeavors, but it was just as challenging.

    I enjoyed the personal reflections you gents made on the video. As a Welshman I know how hilly and wet my country can be. When the sun shines it is beautiful.

    Awesome Ride! Appreciate it, we need more video like this due to Covid-19 that make us hard to bike touring

    Nice to see you found the Stwlan Dam. Best climb in Wales. Shame about the weather and that once climbed you have no choice but to turn around and head back down

    Complimenti un video molto bello, ben girato e ben montato.
    Purtroppo non conoscendo bene l'inglese non ho capito le interviste.
    Comunque che si pedali dietro casa o dall'altra parte del mondo non ha importanza.... l'importante è andare.

    Amazing video. Just wondering what you use to film? A few of us are planning our first bikepacking trip for this August. Hopefully we get better weather though haha..

      Thanks Nadine. We use GoPro's, Sony A6500 + A7S3, Dji drones and gimbals. And some B Cam footage on Sony FS7.

    Well done guys! A very enjoyable video, a bit more detail on your route and the places along the way might have been nice. Next time you come to God’s country (joke I’m an atheist), it might be worth putting mud guards on your bikes.
    Thanks for the lovely views, I must get out more in my own back yard!

      Thanks Paul, we were supported by the rad guys at Restrap for this trip and used bags from across their range. restrap.com/
