Both sides on here agree the Sea Wall terrain was perfectly adequate to cycle.
A lot of photos, videos, WS's & information is online - wide farm tracks, tarmacked paths, foot/cycle paths & Pages Lane.
Bamber was fit, highly motivated and knew the route. So insects or 2 waist high styles on a 20 minute journey would not deter him.
But appreciate Bamber will say otherwise & a TikTok properganda video has been created. Gullible supporters will believe him.
ILB and Rob are the only people I am aware of in the last 39 years who say Bamber could not have cycled it because it was at night.
