Bikepacking Dartmoor National Park over 2 days, in high winds. Perfect for a short Cycle touring route, using both a gravel bike, and MTb hardtail setup. We chose a pannier rack set up, to test out on the short overnighter.
Wild Camping in Dartmoor is legal, following the guidelines set out in the attached:

Nice trip, although I'm still not to keen on the strapon (bikepacking ) setups. seems to be a step back in some cases
I find riding with a few cable ties very handy to secure a snapped bolt. (light & cheap temporary fix) great video!
I guess I should have finished the video first before commenting, HAHA!
I love how that cow looks back, almost like “what the bloody hell you doing here mate” 😂
A most excellent adventure both!!
Well done guys! Great adventure
FYI, the ponies aren't wild. They are owned by farmers who have grazing rights on the moor.
Food looked good .. nice traditional panniers setup .. should look into Bikepacking setup for those trails …enjoy
