I was homeless for 6 years in the Sonoran desert and I think this was the tent I used my tent was called the camp an 1 I believe but looks exactly the same as your tent. I found the tent to be very very good, very water proof in monsoons, and very easy to carry, i did cover my tent with a tarp for added protection from UV, and the weather, but I would definitely buy this tent again if I went homeless again, especially since I called the desert my home, and slept out in the desert, almost 100% of the time. The tent is a good size I’m 5ft 8, and would use my back rest on, and during monsoons I had enough room to take in my backpack into the tent, abet a little tight but doable. Overall I went through about 7 tents , and this tent was the most water proof, durable of the bunch, highly recommend it.

Love that place great beach try to catch the Monarch butterfly migration. S.L.O. is a nice town when the kids are gone

Aww CSULA parking lot!

Niiice!! Thank You Man.

Do you still use this tent? My big issue is that the Velcro loops that hold the rain fly onto the poles are glued not sewn on and simply detached. I would like to sew them back on but don’t know exactly where. Dangerous if rain fly fails at wrong time and not very sustainable if I end up having to throw it away.

So true, I was set on buying the Kona sutra SE but I tried it and I found it so uncomfortable. I then tried the Fuji touring ltd and it was a dream. The most comfortabke ride ever.

Good to see a young rider using a full frame pump. More than one time I have stopped to help a rider on the side of the road or trail with a pocket-sized pump or CO2 cartridge that did not fill the tire. In the past year I have switched over to stainless steel water bottles. I carry one pint and one liter bottles. Check out the new bottle holders that hold 1.5 liter and one liter water bottles. The water tastes so much better than plastic bike bottles. I pick double walled like new Stainless steel bottles at the Goodwill for $2. New $25 to $35.

I guess you weren't changing into PJs at night? Serious question as i have a Fit.

thank you for showing us your plan and arrangements.

Thanks for the great and informative video, but I would have loved the music to cut out at some point. I find it distracting and hard to listen

Thank you for your time and effort to make this video and share your knowledge with us. Greetings from Croatia

That was a Kool video it was enjoyable to watch, thanks for sharing. Something to do on a weekend.

WOW!! an Awesome chat!!!

Horrible music

Got this in 2017 and still use it yearly. My favorite tent!

Very good.

Very helpful.

Great video, useful tips. I was wondering if you could explain how you did rise your stem height, thanks!

Thx u mister ur an angel

Ordered a *Grim Satiator* last Wednesday. (Been planning to get one for over a year…)

So the Death Ridge section killed the trip? That was the hard 4th day when I rode the loop. I started on the North section, South of Escalante. I was hoping your video captured all those hills. It was endless, hard, exhausting, and my favorite part of the 160 mile ride. I lost my 3 liter water bladder too, which made the last 20 miles particularly difficult. Thanks for sharing the video.

awesome story, i don't think it matters what type of bike you use, just go out travel, and enjoy

I bought a stem riser for my touring bike. You gave me the confidence that I'm heading down the right path. Thanks for the video!

You are fucken crazy for doing this on a damn FREEWAY!

WOW! Your Jones handlebar? 710 or 660? Glad you decided to go electric. Thank you for telling us your story. You can continue to enjoy life. Take care of your health. Ride On!

Salsa Vaya and Fargo? Great job on video.

Are you still on a steel Salsa Vaya? Any vids on your current steed?

Mark Aspin 0 seconds ago Lars, I'm in my 50's too, Just built a Befang mid drive kit to my 1995 GT-LTS mountain bike. feeling anxious about the maiden voyage. Good Luck.

If you went on a diet, you might not need the Extra Wheel.

Lars you cannot exercise your way out of a crap diet.

I saw your other, group ride video. And this one it looks like you were able to get a hike and bike site. Curious, is there a maximum of the nights you can stay at a time at the Hike & Bike site? 1 night only? 7 nights straight?

Awesome Video! Curious: 1. The train ride: Where were you able to put your bikes? Do they go next to your seats? Underneath somewhere? In a separate car? And was that the Amtrak "surfliner" or ?? 2. The 2 Hike & Bike sites: is there a maximum of the nights you can stay at a time? 1 night only? 7 nights straight? I realize you guys were forced to get a regular campsite. But I'm curious about the hike and bike site limit.

Do you still ride the Vaya? What model is that Bianchi?

Hello, I like the idea of the delta riser and am thinking of doing the same, as my current setup is causing me upper back pain. Would you happen to know the specs of the the stem you are using?

Thanks for an honest review. I don't bike so it's a good fit.

Do you flip the can over after rubbing it in method 2?

No judgement but regular lunch at McDonalds and binging on candy and chips with diabetes? Take care bro…

The organization made my slightly OCD self uncomfortable. ;) but I'm about to do this to a smaller degree with my Honda fit sport 2008. This helped me a lot in some of the things to think about. Thank you for the video!

You may want to raise the seat a little.

the light bulb adapter is an awesome trick I got it

One car hack I love is to go to the dealership and get a spare key (or a couple!) made that doesn’t have the chip in it. Less than $10 each. Won’t start the car, but I can still open the door. From day one I hide the second (pricey) “chipped” key in the car. If I’m going somewhere iffy - kayaking, water water rafting, the beach, hiking, etc - I take the $10 non-chip key and leave the $150 key under the floor mat or whatever. (Also put a non chip key in a Hide-a-key as another layer of protection.) That way if I lose the $10 key or it gets wet or whatever, no big deal. Can still get into the car and can still drive it. Less bulky too. You do lose the push button “opener” and actually unlock the car with this method, but way worth it to me.

Great vid. Love that ride (up & down) ... and not surprised someone turned left right in front of you at the end!

Unbedingt vor Kauf bei Amazon Lumos Kickstart bei dem Artikel mit ca.1225 Bewertungen schauen, was mit dem Helm bei Regen passiert. Fotos sind zu sehen. Hätte ich mal vorher geschaut, meiner hat das selbe Problem. Nimmt sich der Hersteller nur nichts von an. Schon befremdlich. Before you buy, look Amazon Lumos Kickstart, you should look at the article with approx. 1225 ratings to see what happens to the helmet in the rain. Photos can be seen. If I had looked before, mine has the same problem. If the manufacturer does not accept anything. Already strange.

Lars looks like my kinda guy ! ............LOL! . Good Health sir .

Thanks for the video!! I've done a lot of cool rides and want to start recording them! Is there a way to import speedometer templates for cycling including RPM and Power? Now I just have to remember to hit the record button on my rides 😂

Sorry, I'm confused (maybe it's because we don't do supermarket deals like this in Canada? Please tell me I'm not dumb, lol), how do you use 867-5309?

Have you ever heard of a bike rack dah

No free alternative?

hey, thanks for sharing this video. just one question, what if i take a break during my ride, what happens to the sync between the video and the ride?
