Fatbike adventures since 2013 from North Wales and I'm lucky to live on the edge of the beautiful Snowdonia National Park. My rides include fat biking either on the beaches or up in the mountains in my local area. I also love to travel to different places with the fatbike too. I've had a great fatbike trip in Iceland and there's a fair few from some wonderful places around Scotland too. I also try to get out bikepacking too which is either on the Salsa Mukluk or on the Salsa Bucksaw. I'm the European Tester for www.fat-bike.com which is great fun as I get to share my exploits on their website. I get to test bikes and equipment for them too. I also get to test sample some of Apidura's bikepacking kit prior to production, so you might see the odd prototype bag. Check out my Instagram for some banging fatbike pics! Happy viewing!!
@@jefbricks Yes indeed, me too. I'm, right now, on the return leg of a gravel ride day out. I'm just about to have a 12 miles decent with a tailwind 😁😁👍
Such a great place, love your vids…. Let us know when your going to do a long one as just love chilling and watching tv but unfortunately only ever watch a few RU-vidrs I follow :)
The antler is ‘cast’ around end March to April time every year, the stag then grows a new pair, which are covered in velvet as they grow, hardening in August and then burnished on the ground and vegetation by the stag.
I dont know exactly how it works in Scotland with the bothys, but here in Sweden, there are usually non profit organizations who make sure the shelters along trails has some wood. And in some cases the guests has some with them and simply leave the leftovers so the next guests has something to start one with atleast.
@Jormvngandr they sound great. The MBA bothys in the UK are quite different depending on location. Some have woodland nearby, some can have a road not too far away but there are some that are very remote so 'stocking' them with fuel would be a full time job.
@@jefbricks Yes they do. According to "vindskyddskartan" (the page is in english for those who wanna read) We have nearly 4000 of those shelters scattered around the country. So you can basically plan a trip by going from shelter to shelter. Have in mind though, the are not as warm and cozy as bothies, its just simple wind shelters.
@@jefbricks haha. I whacked up the volume to hear you, then had a telling off from my kids for being too loud on the telly when it went back to the music! 😂
Jeff! That was probably the best film you’ve made! I love the music, composition - everything!! My wife said she loved it too. She’s now inspired to go there with me, she wants to stay at a bothy! Absolutely amazing work mate. It’s such a nice film!! Also sorry about the bothy bingo. There’s always next time. 🎉
Stunning area Jeff, since canoeing Loch Affric and the Loch with the long name before luckdown, I've bean meaning to take a bike back up there for a few days. I'm looking forward to the feature length matinee of this teasing trailer 😁🚲⛺👍
Loved the video Jeff. We walked to Sandwood Bay a few years ago and like you had fantastic weather to enjoy it. Loved your video style, camera angles etc and your video editing is excellent. Being creators ourselves we appreciate the work that goes into putting a video like this together. Well done you’ve got new subscribers. Irvine & Karen.
