Unpaved Podcast

This is Unpaved, the adventure cycling & bikepacking podcast.
Listen here: podfollow.com/1499280472


Join us as we travel the length and breadth of the UK, seeking out the very best off road riding in the wild and wonderful British Isles. We’re seeking out the riders, route masters, gear designers and creatives that help us get the most out of leaving the tarmac behind.

Our introductory series explores the fundamental concepts of what it means to ride off road; exploring cycling history, how new communities are being born all over the country and how attitudes are changing more than they have done in decades. We want to show you what happens when we take this kind of riding to the extremes and how the cycling industry is responding to the surging all-terrain appetite.

This is not a studio podcast. We’ll be joining our guests as they showcase the very best of their local dirt, come snow, rain or shine (literally, it’s winter you know). You might be tuning into us from your commute, work or your local rides, but you won’t be missing out. With each episode we’ll be providing you with the route and highlights here on our Unpaved komoot account so you can go and enjoy the locals’ best off road trails all over the UK too.

Wild Friday night? Actually, yes.



In an attempt to make our daily exercise token feel more adventurous, we concocted a plan to end the (rather full on) working week with a night ride.



If you're familiar with riding off road at night, you'll understand how it's a totally different experience. Armed with

Hey, this route looks great 😀 Is it rideable on a gravel bike for a relative novice (excluding the Bannerdown bridalway section, as I know that is steep & technical)?

The full 360 degree circumnavigation of the city of Bristol, this Green Belt route takes in a challenging combination of roads, byways, bridleways and tracks that makes for a full-on day in the saddle.



Expect wide farm tracks, stream bed singletrack descents, grassy bridleways and rocky byways, all linked
