  • Starting from the 'Capital of the Norfolk Broads' at Wroxham, this 75km route is best tackled on a gravel bike or tourer/hybrid/MTB with wider tyres. That’s because it steams out into the peaceful countryside west of Hoveton on old railway lines, but it would be easy to shadow on quiet lanes if you want firmer surfaces. Taking the trail option makes most of the loop blissfully traffic free and keeps navigation super simple for the first 55km. It also allows you to really drink in the timeless landscape of wide open farmland past wildlife rich woods, winding rivers and flower filled meadows. As well as miniature train lines and old stations you’ll also pass a wide range of historical sites from ancient to modern before arriving at the beautiful, richly storied city of Norwich. A perfect place to stop and explore before the short quiet lane and byway ride back to Wroxham.

    Great video! I would not have done it at quite that pace but then I'm not as fit as you probably are! :)

    Great route, thank you for taking the time and trouble to film and share. Just a request though 🙏 can you please ride more slowly so we the viewer can get a better look - I got quite breathless at the racing pace and your knees pumping up and down - got seasick! 😁

      Sorry about the knees, it does look weird doesn't it. That position works OK for MTB test videos were I'm more upright and want to involve the viewer in the action, but not so much on drop bars with scenery. Going forward I'm probably going to use a helmet mount of some description so I can 'look around' at interesting things while narrating. It also means no more knobbly knees and the riding looks slower and smoother so hopefully less sea sickening too. Hope you still enjoyed it though and check out the other route videos I've done in Norfolk for Cycling UK. That includes the big 'Rebellion Way' loop we launched this autumn that loops round most of the county.

    Nice, you have been sat on that one a while..... lots of cow parsley and hawthorn blossom ! ;-) Going to visit that part of the country at some point in the next couple of years, so will add this loop to the "to do list" . Cheers

      Yep it’s been in the can since just after second lockdown but the route guides etc only went live this autumn and Cornwall was the priority in terms of the video. Three more coming from Cromer soon though 👍🏻

    @GuyKesTv what light is that your using?

    • @GuyKesTV
      @GuyKesTV  3 роки тому +1

      It’s a Lezyne 1000XL. Really decent light if you don’t mind scrolling through flash modes to get back to the steady settings. I’ll try and get a full review up soon.

    No way is this an all ability cycle infrastructure that everyone can use. What about trikes or child trailers? Disgraceful.
