BIKEPACKING THE M5 - BRITAIN's MOST POPULAR MOTORWAY

Time for another busy road bikepacking challenge, this time the M5 apparently Britain's most popular motorway. Starting in Birmingham in the West Midlands and finishing in the south-west at Exeter. The official M5 is about 160 miles, my route is over 200 as I find what's left of the trails along this busy road.
