This summer, Frederik & Els gave us a fantastic challenge: they wanted to slow travel by bicycle during 10 days with their baby and sleep inside.
All right, challenge accepted! 🤩

Just got back from a fantastic 🚲 trip through Northern England! It’s full of beautiful national parks, nice towns, steep hills (often >10%) with rewarding views and great #WelcomeToMyGarden hosts. 💯
@BrulardManon wrote a nice recap ⬇️ Here’s also a map of our trip 😊
17 Sep 2022
Conclusion after cycling in Northern England: I'll never complain about hills in Brussels. Ever again 😅
What a fantastic trip this has been, cycling through the Yorkshire Wolds, Yorkshire Dales, The Lake District & The North Pennines. 🏴🇬🇧
