Well, if you hadn’t heard – we are doing a self build campervan conversion on a new Nissan NV200 we get in March. All being well. Design sorted and started to pick up bits, but watch this space… Its now listed on the menu above, and the index for the build…
Unbelievable. Sad. Saying bye bye to friend that has given us so much and made so many adventures possible 🙁 After 10 years to the day, 70,000 miles, and countless nights of unbelievable adventures, travels, touring and excitement, the van is leaving us and going to a new home and new owners who…
Blimey, good job our plans are fluid 🙂 We’ve always wanted to go back to SE Asia as on our 4 month backpacking trip we feel like we rushed bits. So we’d planned to go back to Thailand and Cambodia in a year or three. Ankor complex (Siem Reap –…
Well, we’ve just got back from a 640 mile ish bike ride around Brittany, pretty much following the map HERE. We survived! The facts:- 640 miles No tyre punctures (Schwarbe marathon tyres are ace! 4,000+ puncture free miles between the two of us. Excellent) One split airbed (Vango Trek –…

Well, the LEJOG trip is almost here! Yikes. For some reason we’re not seeing this as a holiday – more a nightmare plan lol. Just got to hope Mels knee is up to it. And us generally actually, as it is a tough route. Do remember though, our LEJOG isn’t…

For full Wiltshire route index see HERE This is a nice bike ride through quiet country lanes all the way to Castle Combe – and directly to the racetrack! Ideal for a day out if the motorsport is on. As we did it for the motorsport, we did out and…
