Bikepacking!

We were delighted to welcome travel writer Simon Parker and Markus Stitz (founder of Bikepacking Scotland) yeaterday, 16 June. Simon is cycling right around the coast of Britain, writing a regular column #BritainByBike for The Telegraph. He’d come to us from Northumberland, and is now heading back up north to Shetland, where his adventure began. He’s averaging about 70 miles a day. You can follow Simon on Twitter here @SimonWIParker 

Markus (@reizkultur) is a familiar face at John Muir’s Birthplace. If you haven’t seen his lovely film about cycling the John Muir Way, you can watch it here:
