The journey continues with Sylvain! In this instalment we wobble our way through the beautiful Kemeri National Park, dig deep to reach a Lidl and I extract my first tick of the trip!

In this episode I finally reach the capital of Latvia, Riga. This marks the middle point of my ride and it’s here I connect with another unicycle tourer who’s been marking his way across the whole of Europe!

This is Sylvain and the 36'' touring unicycle he was riding all the way from France to Estonia. As his setup was inspired by my own world touring uni (which in turn was inspired by Cary Gray's), I was curious to learn more about the design choices he’d made preparing it for his trip.
You'll be sure to see more of Sylvain in the coming videos because we ended up joining force...

From now my aim is to consistently release these videos every week. Unlike other series' where I've completed all the editing first and then drip fed their release, with this Latvia series, I'm still very much in the process of cutting the videos together. Do I regret deciding to make an episode for every single day - perhaps, but I'm committed now, and will endeavour to get all 20 videos made!...

Happy new year and apologies for the long old wait for this one! Please enjoy the fifth day of my uni tour across Latvia.
(Day 6 will be coming to you very soon!)
2024-01-25 16:00:16 +0000 UTC View PostThank you for all the kind and supportive comments on my new Latvia unicycle series. I just wanted to give you a little update to say that I’m actively working on the rest of the videos, but there will a short break until new uploads come out. In the meantime I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and new year, and I’ll see you in 2024 for more adventures!

This series documents my attempt to ride a unicycle 674km across the entire width of Latvia. I’m alone and unsupported, wild camping along the way. If this wasn't challenging enough I'm also sticking exclusively to an off-road hiking route, named the Baltic Forest Trail!

Progress is going well regarding the new unicycle series edit, and I'm aiming to start releasing videos in a couple of weeks!
In this vid, I spend a little time breaking down the decision making that went into my new off-road unicycle setup. AND give you a little preview of what I got up to in Latvia! Enjoy!

I just wanted to pop up briefly to let you know that I completed my off-road ride across Latvia at the end of September! ‘Twas incredible to be back on a uni, camping and meeting wonderful people!
I’m now back in the UK and have had my head down editing for the last few weeks. Still heaps to go, but know that you guys on here will be the first to experience the ride once all the foota...

For the last week I’ve teamed up with Sylvain to tackle a section of the Baltic forest trail from Riga to Kuldiga.
He’s already been on the road for 3 months, slowly making his way from France to his home in Estonia.
While my 27.5’’ MUni is pretty well optimised for the the rougher terrain, Sylvain’s 36er is much more of a road machine, so it’s been impressive to see wha...

I’m touring on one wheel again! Yeah, I didn’t think I’d be jumping back on a unicycle anytime soon either, but 5 years on from the world tour my backside finally felt rested enough to tempt me back in the saddle!
This time I’m on a 27.5’’ mountain unicycle from unicycle.com, with a stripped down bikepackinge-esque setup. Having said that, I’m still hauling a dece...

First off just let me say a massive welcome and thank you to everyone who's joined this little community over the last couple of weeks! I'm so happy the new series has resonated with so many! And while I'm aware a chunk of you will leave at the end of this month, I do hope some of you will stick around to support what I have coming up.
So, what's coming up!? Wh...

Day 3 of my mission from the source to the mouth of the River Parrett. After more time than I'd anticipated lugging my heavy backpack across Somerset, it's was a relief to deploy the boat property and actually travel some river miles!

This mini series documents my attempt to follow Somerset's longest river from its source, all the way to the sea. In this video it's finally time to deploy the inflatable boat I'd been lugging around! But how far can I actually paddle it..?

Hello there. It's been a while!
A few months ago I attempted to travel from the source of Somerset's largest river all the way to the sea. The idea was to walk with all my gear on my back, until the river became wide enough to deploy an inflatable kayak!

Pillboxes are small, heavily fortified concrete structures built during World War II as a defensive measure against potential enemy attacks. They were intended to be manned by soldiers and were placed in areas of strategic importance, such as coastlines, bridges, and other key locations. The Royal Military Canal is home to a whole heap of them, and as I was recently down in Kent, I was keen to ...
