Hello! Looks like a great trip! We also did a bike tour, from Rome to London. Where did you start your trip?
@millinutz2 ай бұрын
My trip went very well... and I only had to ride 1 day in the rain. Thanks for asking. It's still incredible that you both constantly find the mental power to continue. You upload as much, and as often as you can, in your own time, my 👍 will be waiting for every upload, as and when it comes, so no stress. You have bigger and more important things to tackle. You two are incredible..., weiterhin viel glück👍

Back again after a 3 week and 4200km motorcycle tour round England. Now it's time to find where I last saw you here, and catch up with your travels. I hope all's gone well..., let's see!

Uuuh we hope you had a nice experience, especially nice weather! We are very sorry that we are so behind with the uploads, the tour has been quite intense lately and it's hard to keep up, but we're still trying! 🤗

How many kilometers do you make per day approximately?
@bikeophilie82263 ай бұрын
It really depends on the surface of the path, amount of climbing and intensity/direction of the wind, but usually between 70 and 90 km off-road :)

I think your system is not used to the extreme heat and high altitudes? Let's hope this is just a one-off thing. Love the music you are choosing for these videos.

Yes, we've met many cyclists along the way but noone of them got through Tajikistan without getting sick at some point, so it's hard on everybody 😅

@locusgaudi4 ай бұрын
You need a new sleeping mat stat. In the long run, inability to rest and recover energy during the night is your biggest enemy. You still have almost a whole year to go and you don't want to run out of your body's reserves while biking through Mongolia in winter :)

Very true, it's already ordered, we just have to wait a bit until it will be with us ☺️😅
@millinutz4 ай бұрын
Yes, that heat..., now you would love to have some of that cold you started with. Tiredness is your biggest enemy I would say, when the body and mind are tired, nothing else wants to function. I sounds very much like you desparately need a NEW sleep mat.. Thanks for taking the time, despite all your difficulties, to film and upload, with an honest review of each day.

You are very right, the new mat is already ordered, it will just take a bit until it will be with us ☺️ and yes, the heat we are dealing with right now makes us miss shivering in the Dolomites 😅

@greengraycolor4 ай бұрын
@@bikeophilie8226 Big thanks for the reply. What clip do you use? GoPro mount ecosystem is huge but not built for tripod screw connection. I hope to see that video one day, many videos suggest to use three point straps and have camera on the back but this exposes the camera to sweat and dirt kicked by the tire. Perhaps, your solution solves these, also, allows to shoot faster, but perhaps is harder on shoulders. Be strong and enjoy the views!

Greece has rains in summer? Lucky Greece, i think we will be getting the next rain approximately in December :) The views are fantastic :) How are you planning to deal with biking in autumn - winter conditions? Do you carry all of the clothing with you or you expect to buy it when the season comes?

Hi guys I love your content. Very honest and transparent. Other bikepackers have traveled in that region; as much as I like their content; they only show the beautiful and the great stuff. Others just focus only on making themselves look like they are suffering a lot { Drama } LOL. You are more honest about how you feel; and you tell the truth without drama and still show the beautiful stuff. You Are Great. Me Gonna Follow 😆😀
