What shall we get them to do next?

-----
The boys are back - and this time we upped the ante.
The challenge - to ride their trusty Bromptons the 260miles from London to Paris, arriving in time for the 2024 Olympic Games.

You can catch their previous saga here:

Love it! More please! How’s about North Coast 500 or Hebridean Way on the Brommies? 😁

I live in the southeast US (Florida) and so I am literally thousands of miles from any other countries one could get to by land. I would LOVE to be able to ride to other countries like this!! Travelling to other countries in Europe is like simply driving to another state for us. It would be so cool to be able to be in another country, with a completely different history, culture, castles & palaces, within just a couple of hours on the road - for many of us here who live in very populated areas and therefore have heavy traffic to contend with, we spend the same amount of time just commuting to work. I am SO jealous!

Nicely done - way to respect friendship, the spirit of the road and an adventure together over smashing the miles and sticking to "ze plan" - pending Brompton rider....

Thanks for sending us on another adventure! We’re looking forward to the next one!

So that’s National Cycle Route 21 🤬. Great video to get an idea what to expect.

You should go back and do that muddy hill with the G Line 😂

I’m in the US and my Brompton M6 is my favorite bike. I was hoping you guys would make this longer series, but that’s OK Thank you!

Insanity comes in many versions! As an owner of a very much modified and much lighter 2019 SuperlightM6LXBrompton I know it is a heavy ride on the small wheels, though mine is now below 9 kilos, with mudguards😄! Finn. Denmark
