Packing checklist for a bicycle tour

Bicycle Touring Checklist

I recently returned from a 4-week bike tour through France and Spain, carrying all of my own kit and camping along the way. Some people have commented that they can’t believe I travel so light, while others have said “how the heck do you fit all that on a bike?” You can fit a surprising …

Camping at Manzac Ferme, Dordogne, France

I’m currently in the midst of a big long bike ride across France (see hashtags #franceenvelo and #tothemoon). Eight days and 450 miles into it, I feel like my legs deserve a rest. So it was convenient that I had just landed in Dordogne, one of my favourite regions in France for its woodland, enchanted …

Raw Orange and Cacao Energy Bars

As part of my 2015 Adventure Goal to complete the Ridgeway this year, I’ve been experimenting with raw snack bars to power me through the miles. This is the latest, receiving a 10/10 rating from my walking buddy. I make these in my Froothie Optimum 9400 which does a great job of grinding the nuts into a fairly …

Homemade Raw Bars with Agen Prunes

I first became acquainted with Agen prunes when I went to Gascony in 2012. As my friend Mardi (the venerable blogger at eat live travel write) puts it: “if someone thinks they don’t like prunes, give them one of these and they’ll change their mind.” It’s totally true. Agen prunes (pruneaux d’Agen) have been developed …

Double Chocolate Brownies - Vegan, Paleo, Raw

Raw Double Chocolate Brownies

Here is a brownie that ticks all the right boxes – raw, vegan, gluten-free, paleo… – and they taste delicious too. The classic raw brownie is made by blitzing dates, nuts and cocoa in a food processor and mushing the mix together into a ball or bar. Though tasty, those raw brownies are also very …

Homemade Fruit Leather - Make in the oven or dehydrator

How to Make Fruit Leather (Oven or Dehydrator)

For a sweet treat on the trail try making your own homemade fruit leather. My fellow Americans know fruit leather as “fruit roll-ups”, which when purchased from the shop are full of sugar and other crap. But if you start with real fruit, puree it and dry it yourself, you’ll find the fruit needs little sugar …

ViewRanger Review: Discovering GPS on my iPhone

Those of you who already use a GPS (or an iPhone for that matter) will probably roll your eyes throughout most of this post. But for me, both are a novelty, and “the new” hasn’t quite worn off yet, so I appreciate you letting me have my moment. A couple weeks ago I blogged about …

Camping in the Brecon Beacons

I went to Wales last weekend to do some camping and walking in Brecon Beacons National Park. Camping and walking I did, as well as a bit of thinking, but not about life, the future, and other deep things I thought I’d have headspace for. Instead, I kept my head in the trip, looking at …

Building embers... a bit more patience required th Building embers... a bit more patience required this time of year to build a fire suitable for cooking but the joy is in the doing. My kind of winter meditation.

I still feel enormous gratitude for having this at my back door, especially in current circumstances. I’ve been making plans for my next move but for now it’s all about being grateful for what I have right now. #sunrise #wiltshire #dogwalk #frost #winterwalks

Busy times at ESW HQ restocking after a busy Chris Busy times at ESW HQ restocking after a busy Christmas. I was accidentally sent some red chillies for my Trailblazer Hot Sauce. I could have sent then back but they looked so good I decided to keep them. Currently thinking I’ll smoke them with hickory, but who knows! … there could be a special edition Trailblazer coming soon!
Escape to a corner of our neighbourhood that actua Escape to a corner of our neighbourhood that actually has some hills! An invigorating 7-ish miles from Bisely with better than expected weather, two happy hounds, great views, hidden gems, and predictably much mud! Unparalleled conversation provided by the always entertaining @simasunflower, fellow female foodie entrepreneur, dog lover, strong person, and all around badass.
