Is it possble to talk too much on a podcast? Our dissection of trip planning has now been divided into 2, or possibly 3 parts. Part 1 barely even touches the surface, but we had fun talking around where to go and how far you should expect to get each…

Here we go, again, with listener Alex and mate Wil. We have tried to create a beginners guide to trail riding (in a few parts). Everything you need to know but were too afraid to ask. Let us know what you think. What have we missed? What have we got…
We are back again, apologising again, but ill health, all good now, and a broken laptop have conspired against us, but here we are...In this episode we de-brief our recent trip around the north of England to celebrate Greg's 40th, (I know! Doesn't he look older!)which is captured in the…
It's been a while, sorry for being a bit useless. Life is very busy despite lock-down... This is part one of the story of our cancelled trip to the Spanish Pyrenees, where we went to the north east and west of our own fair island. Fun was had, beer was…
We're back for season 2, sorry, it's been a while. But we think you are going to like this one. We witter on for a bit before handing over to Steve Stout and some very long standing members of Cumbria TRF, Steve and Roger, who have been riding since the…

Chris Bone talks us through his amazing 5 month trip from Yorkshire to the southern most tip of south Africa, crossing 25 countries. Whilst not swimming with crocodiles, nor meeting the Christmas vacationing gorillas, nonetheless Chris tells some great stories like the ones where he ignored some machete wielding 'amateur…
In this episode we welcome, or I should say I welcome, as poor Noel is sick, Tim Cooper of 'UKJeeper' fame. Tim has recently ridden 11,000 miles in 6 weeks across the Trans America Trail. Amongst the many top TAT tips Tim tells us (t'alliteration!) how he flew with his…

Welcome to our second podcast. We recorded this one on location at a Lake District log cabin, near a river. Sadly the sound of the river was terrible, so we had to apply some noise reduction, which has distorted the sound somewhat. We hope you don't find it too distracting.…
This is our first podcast. We spend far too long talking about ourselves, but it seemed sensible to let you know who we are. We would love to hear from you, so let us know what you think and the type of thing you would like us to cover. Who…
