Love it! I live in Ashford and have been to many of those places. I love camping and cycle to get to work etc. I never thought about combining the 2! I've just got some panniers and frame bags etc. Now I just need it to warm up and campsites to open to try out cycle touring. I think this canti way sounds perfect for my first tour. Can't wait!
It’s a great way to explore an area. The Cantii way is a great tour to try as your first. If looking for affordable cycle touring kit then recommend decathlon (the panniers my son is using)
Thanks, I’m making the most of the time when my children still think I’m ok to hang with and do things like this, it won’t be long till I’m anything but cool in their eyes 😀
Thank you. We are planning on doing this on a tandem in September, great to have seen some of the route and the scenery. Looks like we made a good choice.
@@Bungle2010 I wa doing it on 34s and it was just unridable. Section is about a mile long but l would just avoid it, there’s a perfectly good quiet road running parallel and I would stick to that!
Great video - thanks for sharing. I've just completed the Cantii Way so it's a nice reminder. How did you find the climb up onto the North Downs at the start of the ride?
Thanks, it's a great ride isn't it. The climb was tough but not too bad for the North Downs start (probably cos our legs were freshed), the hardest climbs were definitely day three by Dover and Folkestone.
@@DavidMackenzie Ouch that must have been tough then, and we commented at the time that the descent that we did from there would have been harder as an ascent as it was quite a loose surface in places

Valuable time spent together eh. Well done both of you, especially Ewan. Keep it up boys.
@@emaneliforp7875 thanks, plans for a ride in the Netherlands in a couple of weeks time 😀

Well done Ewan and Cool dad!
Thanks Tony! Busy planning this year’s expeditions now 😀
A beautifully produced and edited DIY documentary. Congratulations.
Thanks 😀
What a nice thing to do with your son 👏
Thanks 😀 it’s a great time to enjoy together
Great video, thanks. Trying to persuade my non cycling mates to do this route.
It’s a great “beginners” ride 😀
Just watched all the way through for the second time. Very well done, especially to Ewan. Very impressed- for the second time, Ian from Downunder.
Thanks, nice to know we have viewers from all the corners of the globe 😀
Great video, thanks! Big kudos to Ewan - he did great! 👍
Thanks for watching!
Oh, this is fun
Thanks, yes we had a great time. Lovely ride.
Thanks for this! My son, Fred (9) and I enjoyed watching and will try the Canti at some point.
Glad you enjoyed it, look forward to seeing your adventure on it!
honestly, what a cool dad!

and his son is a brave little warrior

You’ll have a lovely ride though do avoid the Sandy bit through the golf course (stick to the road) I wouldn’t fancy pushing a tandem through that!
@@ALittleAdventureTime Hi. How long is the sandy part? I'm considering doing the route some time this year on my endurance road bike with 32 mm tyres.
@@Bungle2010 I wa doing it on 34s and it was just unridable. Section is about a mile long but l would just avoid it, there’s a perfectly good quiet road running parallel and I would stick to that!
@@ALittleAdventureTime OK thanks. I'll probably stick to the road then.

@A Little Adventure Time I started in Canterbury so the North Downs came at the end of the ride for me 😊
