There’s something wonderfully freeing about touring the country on two wheels, whether it’s pedalling along England’s oldest road through the Chiltern Hills or winding through the seaside towns of Aldeburgh, Southwold and Great Yarmouth on Suffolk’s beach hut-studded coast.
Over the last few years, bikepacking — setting out on the open road, with all that you need to survive strapped to your bicycle — has become a favourite activity of mine; a lifeline, even, at times.
