    Your drone footage is amazing. How you got some of those shots while you were riding your bike is beyond me. I can't believe you don't have more subscribers. Your videos are much more than just bike riding.

    They were singing " Happy Birthday" in the Sardinian Bar. The guy pouring the wine, it was his birthday.

      Probably a good thing I didn’t bring a bike to get some time off the thing but the roads and trails out here are stunning. Next time

    Fabulous. Plenty have spent an evening singing Happy Birthday in a bar, but not so many have spent the night in a Broch (is that what they are?). Time travelling must have been easy in that environment, and the out of body experience on a bike is wonderful. Thanks for the journey, and good luck in your race.

    I hope the bivi bag or you have a mat as I couldn't imagine sleeping on top of the stones. Those Italian men must have been Napoli supporters after they beat Liverpool. Good luck with the race.

    I'm a camping owner on the north east part of Sardinia, next time you visit feel free to camp on us for a couple of nights, all we'll ask will be a couple of references about us in your vids. Be in touch for conditions if you wish.

    So great video, thank you for that=) I'd be interested to know did you use tubeless, clincher or what tires? What maker and model tires did you have and any problems with them and would you recommend them?

      I was using Hutchinson Challenger in tubeless. 32mm I believe. Highly recommend

    After all your experience what saddle bag would you say is the best? im looking to replace my rack and drybag setup with a saddlebag and normally go with ortlieb but the design looks like it would sway a lot and would drive me mad over long distance. Also the bag requires 15cm of seat height what i dont have. I got onto looking at the ones same as yours where they have a frame mounted from the seatpost. Have you had any trouble with the mount coming loose? P.s great videos you do a good job to edit these while still on the move.

    • @Josh-Reid

      I have used the Arkel seatpacker for pretty much all my trips and it’s been great. The bag never sways. Currently using the 9l version as the 15l sometimes rubs on the rear wheel due to my saddle height on a small frame not always providing enough clearance.

      @@Josh-Reid Bats are potential carriers of rabies, which if not treated immediately is 100% fatal. The big risk with bats is that they are really small so if a rabid bat bites you while you’re sleeping most people wont notice it. In the US 70% of rabies cases in human stem from bats. However the risk in europe is minimal. Theres only been one case or so of rabies in europe over the last 20 years. Theres no need to worry.
