I rode 350+ miles from London to Paris solo & unsupported on my Brompton! Here is how it went (and why 16” wheels on muddy trails are a wild idea)

Good work @Lifeonmove, I'm recently back from similar, albeit a shorter route via Dieppe. I must do a writeup.

Yes that one is a shorter route? I wanted to keep the one used by Discover Adventure

Well done 👏 that’s a fantastic achievement 👍

Thank you!

Portsmouth-Caen gives more varied scenery

Yes, can you please add that comment on the YouTube vide? I will share the gpx file there.

Yes, i opted for the much shorter route; i'm not used to multi-day rides, and i wanted to maximise my time in Paris!

Well done on doing the longer route; i'd be really struggling on days 3 and 4; how did you get on?
