I'm considering getting an action camera and neck mount to use as a bicycle dashcam.

What do you use? Do you think something like the below would work well (using the chest strap so it doesn't move around too much)?

London. The City of London. Two very different cities. But they have one thing in common: being in England.

The highway type looks like a service road or a track to me – to access Aldershot Farm. I.E.

bicycle=yes
designation=public_bridleway
foot=designated
highway=service
horse=designated
motor_vehicle=private
prow_ref=Bicester BR 9
surface=compacted

Then highway=bridleway from Aldershot Farm onwards.

Here's an example of this configuration (although I think he's using older 12.5L Sport-Rollers on the back, with a 31L Rack-Pack).

The 24L/31L Rack-Pack doesn't connect to the Gravel-Pack straps. For some bizarre reason, Ortlieb made them incompatible.

You'd be better off with 14.5L Sport-Rollers (same dimensions as Gravel-Pack). That way the Rack-Pack will connect to the Sport-Roller straps.

You can. Refer to the below Fork-Pack installation instructions.

However, you could always use larger panniers on the rear rack, instead of 14.5L Gravel-Packs. For example 20L Back-Roller Classic, or 23L Back-Roller Plus.

The obvious choice is Brompton, however while they have the smallest fold, in my opinion they are too expensive.

So if she's rich, perhaps a 16" wheel Brompton 12-speed C-Line, or a 20" wheel Brompton G-line. If it was me, a 20" wheel Tern Link B8.

If you're not a professional, you'd likely be better off moving to Affinity – which is free, unless you want to use Canva's AI tools.

Such a cool frame design and colour. The 1991 GT Timberline and the Karakoram (orange with splats) are still amazing looking bikes.

It probably helps that the UK put a person with Tourette's Syndrome in Big Brother (Pete), where the nation could watch 24/7 and realise that it is in fact a very real condition, no more avoidable than Parkinson's spasms.

Can't help but feel mudguards should just be standard on 80% of bicycles…

The best electric touring bike option for 2026 is the Cube Touring Hybrid Pro 800.

I think they look great. I've never been a fan of Presta valves, so may consider swapping the Presta cores for these instead.
