    You've made 10 years while I'm about just to embark the journey in few hours from now. Leaving house with Brompton for the first time bikepacking. Preparation & training for about 3 months. Hope all is well. Your video gave me strength.

    Thank you for the reminder of the amazing journeys you've made and shared with the world over the last ten years - I've watched them all as you've uploaded them. The Brompton has its limitations compared to other bikes - but as you've shown so many times - it has unique talents and strengths that no other bike can offer. You've taken your little bike far beyond what it's inventor created it for. Thank you for all the hard work, effort, time and money you've spent over the years. You are a true inspiration and adventurer 🙏🏽

Para mí es una motivación muy grande, un gran ejemplo de resistencia y valor demostrado en enfrentarte a una ventura imprevisible y llena de sorpresas que afrontar positivamente. Mi gran enhorabuena por este trabajo tan extraordinario y bien planteado que seguiré siendo un fiel seguidor de tus aventuras futuras. También un reconocimiento a esta bella bicicleta Brompton que ha demostrado ser un producto impecable y bien desarrollado que hace las delicias de todos nosotros, afortunados poseedores de una marca tan distinguida y valorada. Un saludo desde la localidad de Vilanova i la Geltrú en Barcelona, Spain.👍👍👍👏👏👏

    Amazing, inspiring and truly wonderful, what you have accomplished on the saddle of that great bike, I am biased as a fellow Brompton owner. I will be doing the Pacific Cycling Road in Japan come October, 1,400 Kilometers on my Brompton, very excited about that adventure and looking forward to see your next one.

    These are superb video diaries. I’m just reading your book “Unfolding Further” (I’ve already enjoyed your first book) and I like the QR codes at the beginning of each chapter which then lead to the videos of those adventures. I had a Brompton about 20 years ago I used to ride for work everyday. I loved that bike. You’ve inspired me to buy another one and travel with it when I retire later this year. What’s the piece of Indian music that forms the background to your journey through Sri Lanka? I rather like that.

    So nice to hear you enjoyed the videos and books, thanks a lot! Exciting times ahead for you then?! Provided you are not in a rush ( and you won’t be! ), Brompton bikes are a fun way to travel and discover a country and they take some of the hassle of carrying a regular bike away. I use Epidemic sound music and that song is called Kahaani and artists are Aks and Lakshmi. Cheers!

    Sorry John I don]t have those on GPX files. On the 2 books I published I describe the routes and show some maps with the main points along the route. Most of my longer videos of each trip also give a stage pointer as I cross the main stages? You could go through those if you are interested. Thanks!

    Amazing brother, living the dream! May i ask, when doing these travels, what’s your usual budget? 1-2k per month?

  • @BromptonTraveler

    @BromptonTraveler

    2 ай бұрын

    It obviously depends on how you want to tour and where you are. On my longest trip when I went from London to Italy over 25 days I spent 700 Euros. Lots of camping, some airbnb and hostels and some wild camping. I didn't cook my food though which would have made it cheaper. There is a database of long term cyclists and it seems that a good monthly average s about 800 Euros. Some people do it for 400 others for 1200.

    Fear stops us from living our dreams and ultimately it is not real but in our thoughts! I have the same fears you do but with a bit of common sense and trust in your gut feeling in any given situation you are likely to be alright! If you are in the unfortunate situation to experience real fear due to an accident or a dog biting you, you will be surprised how well you deal with it!
