Hi,
Ive cycled all my life and travelled a great deal but never by bike..
Im settled in Brighton now and am really fancying doing some proper touring in the UK/europe this summer, i miss the free feeling you get when backpacking.. Currently building up my fitness (very slowly)..
The idea was i'd go off for 1 or 2 night rides at first and maybe sleep rough weather permitting.. I'd like to be off road but nothing too hectic, im riding a hybrid and want to ease myself in..
Can anyone recomend a route to start me off? They'll be two of us so should be safe enough if we can camp out somewhere a bit secluded?? Any advice would be welcome, im thinking just sleeping bag, ground sheet and small gas stove etc? Maybe a drop of scotch to send me off to sleep?
Im based in Brighton but dotn mind travelling...
Cheers in advance,
