With the bike all loaded, I set off for the Isle of Wight. But with wardrobe malfunctions, technical issues and too much pain, my first trip of the season didn't go quite to plan.

Throwback to my 1st published cycling article 'Cycling Back to Happiness', Brittany on a new bike, replacing one that lost an argument with a volvo (I don't recommend going for a ride on a car bonnet either). Cycle UK Mag 2018

Bournemouth seafront was windy 💨 and sandy. But it was good to finish in the New Forest 🐴🌳, even with a rough night ahead ⛺.

As we're putting together another video of our Rhine River Bike Tour, I made this quick #Relive MAP of Stage 1 through the Swiss Alps. IT'S SO GORGEOUS! #biketravel #cycletouring #BikePacking #Brompton #Switzerland
The ride from Crowborough to Brighton turned into a real test of endurance. With my hip hurting and more hills than planned, the temptation to quit early and find a campsite was very strong.
