I find that a lot of campers seem to want stealth because of getting worried about being seen, it’s a catch 22, something I learned from military mingling, when your a fox being chased by the hounds,….just disguise yourself as a hound, by that I mean don’t hide when camping, become the public person around you, a Hello if you want, carry on what your doing, all substitution will melt into themselves, after all, if you was up to no good, you wouldn’t let people see you…😅, so……….be good !!

there's a fancy new bike from decathlon called the fold light 1 second and i think it may be better than a brompton is. the biggest problem is i can't see how to mount a rack on the thing. i'll check the bike out sometime in the following weeks, bring my brompton, and maybe do a comparison video, although i'm not used to talking to the camera
Andy, you no longer have that used Tern from which you were getting such great service? Was wondering why you just didn't bring that bike along for this trip.

Hi, Andy. So, since you found that used Tern that's been working out great for you, do you plan to keep it and then not ever have to buy another folding bike in the future? I'm asking because I've seen several of your videos wherein you ride a different folding bike. Cheers!
You should go deeper into the social engineering! I really like the idea that you can pose as someone else and get into new places. And with a hobo start it kinda highlights the social biases we all have. I don't know if you've played the hitman games, but it uses this mechanic a lot! Also because it's fun to see you undress in public 😂
It could be fun to pretend to be a surfer that got robbed while surfing, having to quickly find new clothes and things. This would also be a way to highlight some issues society suffers from as well as a challenge!
whats your opinion on belt drives? bit more expensive but i imagine it's less maintenance and cleaner e.g. i would want to hitchike with the bike and a clean beltdrive is likely an advantage, otherwise i would need to wrap it up somehow also in theory i am tempted to buy an expensive one like vello for some extra comfort/less weight better materials for more remote stuff, but then again it would be a hassle to keep it locked somewhere if you e.g. want to do a hike, so i guess a cheaper one, well maintained and maybe some upgrades is actually better i have this crazy idea to maybe go on a trip with no end with a folding bike and a packraft, moving either by bike, hitchhiking, even hitching sailboats, paddle down rivers - in my mind the ultimate combo :D while researching for this i came across your channel, great stuff!
If you read between the lines on this. You can invest into some art supplies and start making some aboriginal paintings outside the entrance to the supermarket. In a short time you will have established some new relationships with passers by... during lockdown I was copying verses from the Dhamma pada and giving them out as gifts on squares of cardboard moving from town to town with no fixed home to go back to as such but reading the art of mindful walking by Adam Ford gave me so much refuge "I have arrived, I am home"
