u/TaybertSwith and I rode The Way of the Roses last weekend. It is a 170 mile coast to coast across Lancashire and Yorkshire. We did it in a (theoretically) leisurely 4 days and camped each night.
The Bumblebee had a Brompton Borough Roll top front bag and a Carradice Camper Longflap saddlebag on a Carradice Quick Release System. It was stabled in an Exped Mira II tent.
The Turkish Green had an Eerder Metaal Xplorer front bag and a Carradice Lowsaddle Longflap saddlebag on a Bagman Quick Release support. It was stabled in a Durston X Mid 1p Solid.
A great route. The Bromptons did well – particularly on the long descents.
