This is the entire experience of the gb divide bikepacking ride, from john o Groats to lands end off road, for those that want to watch the whole thing in one go. This epic trip will have us traverse the length of scotland england and wales off road, through the rugged mountains of the scottish highlands, the rolling hills of the Yorkshire dales and the tiring pennines, before heading into wales and traversing the snowy and wet mountains. And finally into the south west of england for the final push to lands end in cornwall. This is the GB divide FULL EXPERIENCE.
This was ridden and filmed in early march 2023

You are an absolute inspiration, sir! Thank you!
You are a wonderful ambassador for your home region!
This video is incredibly inspiring! If watching it makes you want to go out and do the exact same thing, that’s probably the biggest compliment one can give. I think I might actually do this tour this early summer.
What do you think, is it better to go north to south or south to north?
Thank you for sharing.
Josh, you are THE man!! What a journey, what fantastic scenery, what crap weather...yet you always had a smile on your face 🙂
We didn't see, but did you really manage that trip with out hot food and drinks?
Keep doing what you enjoy...you are made of tougher stuff than me. Terry
