In this video, I am heading up the Peddars Way, a 50 mile off-road trail in Norfolk on my ebike. Fiido, who make the bike, claim a very impressive range per battery charge and I wanted to test out that range under heavy use in some challenging conditions during winter and so the idea of this trip was born.

Heading off from the Suffolk border, I begin my journey northwards, passing through forests, heathland, wetlands, wide rolling hills and along muddy paths and gravel tracks. I finally arrive at a nice spot to camp for the night, tantalisingly close to the dunes and beaches of the North Norfolk coast, with just a bar of battery remaining.

After a well deserved steak dinner, a couple of beers and an evening enjoying a nice fire, its time for bed ready for the final leg to Holme-next-the-sea, but can I make it before the battery runs out?

I hope you enjoy the video.

Thanks for watching.
