I cycled from Munich to London in 48 hours - Bikepacking with a Canyon Grail

Having never bikepacked before, I decided to cycle from Munich to London. It took just over 48 hours of total riding time, spread over 7 days and an evening. I planned the rough route in advance so I knew where I was aiming to get to each day. I booked the first couple of nights' accommodation and arranged the rest as I was on the road.
