Phil You Up, Leatherhead, UK
No book has impacted my opinions on breakfast food like Felicity Cloake’s “Red Sauce, Brown Sauce”. I’ve visited a few places featured in her epic ride exploring British breakfasts.

Hygge cafe, Chertsey, UK
The cycling community in London is large and thriving. Admittedly, it’s a bit of a cult. But an encouraging and supportive one. Everyone in it knows the same routes. It’s the sort of thing you pick up as you go. And someone will tell you if you dont. One of these routes is the Bun…

SOHO Coffee Co, London, UK
If you ever find yourself in central London at 8 am on a Sunday, you’ll find a shockingly empty place. In stark contrast to the usual hustle and bustle of the weekdays or weekend days filled with tourists, Sunday mornings are sleepy and the relative silence is sort of eerie and serene at the same…

Josie’s, Romsey, UK
Nestled in the south of England near the Isle of Wight is a sleepy little country town named Romsey. Just a 2 hour train ride from London Waterloo, it’s far enough away to be out past the suburbs but close enough for a weekend trip. Among the great hiking in the area, quant town vibes,…
