Reports of adventures from the ADVNTR Team & our contributors.
First of those crispy, cold mornings in the UK this week, and ADVNTR contributor Tangwyn (lovecrossedCX) has certainly been making the most of it.
Layering up might be a bit more of a puzzle at this time of the year, but with scenes like this in the Cotswolds to discover, there's almost never been a better time to get out there.

Fully loaded and ready to roll; for the day at least. We've had to change the way we test bikepacking gear here at ADVNTR in light of covid restrictions, in this case test riding the prototype riverside_decathlon on day rides only (no overnight stays allowed) but fully packed up.
Nearly stowed between handlebar bag, fork packs and saddle pack you'll find an alpkit Jaran two person tent, cloud base mat, cloud cover quilt, an msr_gear stove, cooking kit, ddhammocks hammock, layers, tools and spares. Plus no less than three water bottles and a flask of hot chocolate!
We'll be bringing you our thoughts on the yet-to-be-released 920 Touring model at an incredible £1,399/€1,499) soon!

We're pretty damn excited for our first artist collaboration at ADVNTR, with the dirt rider and illustrator extraordinaire l__ermitage of studiofolk 🇫🇷
Here's a little tease for something very special coming to our web store soon...

We've been getting a lot of messages about our neat little ADVNTR insulated flasks, so we've ordered some more which will be ready in our online shop soon. Gotta love that mid ride warmth in the middle of nowhere!

Candid, curious and cheeky; check out getwildmatty and thetouringartist's new film Lost Captures now.
Kicking off their world tour by bike, Yorkshire based couple Matty Waudby and Clare Nattress headed to Norway for their first MTB tour together. Besides the obvious adventure that lay in store, there was more to this trip than simply discovering a new country, new culture, of mountains, fjords and waterfalls and round-the-clock daylight.
With a collection of old film photographs taken by his Grandfather, Bob, on a cycle tour through Scandinavia in the 1950’s, Matty’s sights were soon set of finding the locations of these photos, following in the pedal strokes of one of his ancestors nearly 70 years before.
Watch the film produced with help from bombtrackbicycleco and Matty and Clare's photos on ADVNTR now (link in bio).

A new, gravel-specific saddle? Yeah, we were sceptical too.
Turns out the design behind fizik's short-nosed Terra Argo X3 really does deserve the name though, with some sweet features that dirt riders will really appreciate.
Check out katherinebikes' review on the new saddle on ADVNTR now (link in bio).

The name may be different but the concept's the same. We chatted to Dutch photographer and gravel riding king erwinsikkens_com about daypacking; what it is, what you'll need to take with you and some of his favourite gravel routes in the Veluwe, the Netherlands.
Check out the video interview at ADVNTR (link in bio).

Check out the new birdwatching by bike guide written by ADVNTR contributor bikesandbirdhides. Where to head, what to bring and what to look out for, we hope this inspires you as much as it has us to try something a bit different on your next ride.

Ever considered birdwatching by bike? We asked Lake District local Abi Rose (bikesandbirdhides) to explain why the two go hand in hand so well, what to bring and where to head.
Check out Abi's birding by bike guide, as well as her South Lakes gravel and birdwatching komoot Collection over at ADVNTR (link in bio).
