Here we go again...
Afternoon Patreons.
I'm pleased to announce that my most ambitious straight line mission to date (by far) is over, and that the editing process can now begin.
As usual you will all get exclusive early access to every episode. I'm aiming for late April for this one, but don't go anywhere because we also have an epic race across the isle of man vs Archie and Adam Fieldhouse later this month.

Nice one Tom, really enjoying the patreon I have to say. I was wondering why you never seem to wear walking boots I the videos. But here you are wearing them so it's all ok 😄
During the happy hour podcast 217 at about 20 minutes, Tom says England is next for him as he’s been inspired to do something massive like Britain. He says he needs to do it far north, near Carlisle straight across to north of Newcastle. Tom’s previous post also mentions he needs to scout farmland near these areas. 👀. FYI on maps you can see a shit ton of farmland so this also makes sense as it is Toms most ambitious straight line yet.
Gday Tom, i am watching the Norway mission again, and due to the wintery conditions, a thought came to mind.. a collab with Luke from the Outdoor Boys youtube channel! I've heard its hard to get into contact with him, as a couple of the sidemen lads tried, but what a banger of a video that would be!
Discrete content every 2 weeks wouldn't hurt.
The last post before this one was looking for help in Carlisle. Carlisle to Newcastle happens to be the narrowest part of England. And Tom's already done it, only kicking a ball rather than a straight line, so he's already somewhat familiar with the area. And these pics would fit for that area, could be Kielder Forest or something. This all points to a straight line mission across England!
He confirmed it was Idaho on stream
Could be Scotland actually. Possibly doing something like Sutherland or maybe Caithness
did he really?
That was a challenging wank. 😳😳
Looks like its been an interesting mission so far so excited for the video
Just subscribed because i'm from the isle of man and can't wait for the race across! Exciting stuff. Initially i was thinking the two pictures were in the isle of man so was searching but the 2nd pic just doesn't fit at all 😅
Lucozade and Jelly Babies? Defo England
Defo England
Is this straight line mission crossing England?
Could it be Estonia? If it is Sweden it must be in the south. Ireland seems too long, about 150km. Nothern Ireland is at least 130km.
So excited to hear this! I've had a lousy day and seeing this news made it so much better. Can't wait to see what happens!
And now i'm excited. Cant wait for April! Lets hope its a throwback to the 4:3 ratio and the 16-bit music. Getting nostalgic just thinking about that haha! Cheers!
Wow! So excited! And I agree with Nicolas above, the scenery definitely reminds me of Sweden. And I might spy a Marabou chocolate wrapper on the second image? We also have freedom to roam which helps, but it's quite wide (almost 10x Wales)
The yellow bag/wrapper looks like Jellybabies upon further inspection to me. So if it is our country, which I agree it could very well be, he definitely planned and came prepared when it comes to the snacks selection.
New rule….. straight line mission ( trousers not required )
The trees look quite swedish… but I’d be sad to hear you trekked across my motherland without me getting to say hi!
Finally just became a member! Seriously can’t wait to delve into all the content I haven’t been able to watch.
cant wait for the series to return! some of the best 🤌
Photo 1 is Tom's best impression of a flustered tortoise...
Very excited! Especially so for the Isle of Man one, because that's where my boyfriend and I met you! Can't wait to see what places we recognise.
Looks like your trip to the Yukon was successful
Letsgooo Tom! And good luck with the editing process!
Get in
Best way to start a Monday with Geowiz news !
Looking forward to this and that race! Related: Folks here who are familiar with Adam and Archie might be interested in supporting them on Patreon as well. They're just getting started and only asking for $2/m. Hope you don't mind the plug, Tom! https://www.patreon.com/ArchieFieldhouse/posts
Looking forward to it. Glad you didn’t fall off a cliff or get killed by a farmer! 😂
Yes! I can already hear 16-Bit Adventure - Main Theme playing
He finally did straight line across Russia!
So hyped!!!
Lovely stuff, can't wait to see what you've been up to this time! Thanks for all the effort you put in to giving us all great content!
Always nice to hear from you after those missions - our hero made it through seemingly unscathed. Oh boy, am I excited to see how it went!
Honestly can’t wait , Yes Tommy boy
Yesssssss, cannot wait!
First pic might have been about the 2nd coming of the Bigfoot 😂
It’s crazy to think that 5 days of adventure involve 3 months of editing… can’t wait!!
Can't wait man. Hopefully someday you can straight-line Ireland 🇮🇪🇮🇪
Hell yea boy! Thanks for everything you doin🫶🏼
Fantastic!
That second photo lmao the look of "what actually happened in life for me to end up here"
Awesome! Will you be flying to Tunisia to run alongside Russ as he completes his run across Africa?
I doubt it Julian, sadly!
My body is ready
Cant waitttttt
Someone get Rainbolt to locate the two photos so we get more info!
Or ask this geowizard guy, i heard he is also a very good geo detective!
Ok geodetectives, where are those locations?
Somewhere at the beach in the 50s or 60s when I see those very short shorts
Why do you have to tease us Tom 😭😭
We’re so back 🫡
Get in! Is it a solo mission?
It is
Haha looks rad! Excited to see the edits!
Oh the anticipation. I’m so excited to see where you did this Tom
Fantastic.
Lets go!!
GET IN
Can’t wait!
Can't wait :)
Cannot wait!
Can’t bloody wait
