[@j.k.6148]

Wow, hard to believe it’s been over 600 days. What a journey. What a rolling existence!

[@briantyhy4880]

Lovely to see the big smiles at the beginning of your video. I was hit by a scooter in Ben Tre in southern vietnam. It was my fault not like Jenny who was not at fault. Jenny you are such a resilient women, congrats for jumping back on the steel horse so to speak. Dreamed of cycling the four rivers but Im getting old now, Thanks for letting me cycle through your videos. Best of luck and thanks for posting

[@milesenlight]

Super cool adventures Andrew and Jenny! I dont even have to travel there any more to see what its like. Keep on rollin'! 🙌🏾🚴🏽‍♂️🚴‍♀️ Miles

[@outtatrex]

Those rides along the beach are the best !

[@rickute1458]

they beaches are full of rubbish and human waste, many a time we would see whole turds washing up on the beach

[@RollingExistence]

Yeah they're some of our favorites!

[@nelsonballaran2331]

Hello two friends, welcome to my country. Glad to see two friends cycling around the world that I have been following every night, have come to the familiar streets of Vietnam. I'm your fan, I watch a lot of your videos. I wish you both a very enjoyable experience in my country, Vietnam.

[@RollingExistence]

We loved our time in Vietnam! You live in a very beautiful and vibrant country 😊 Glad that you're enjoying the videos!

A great trip. A great video. Love bike rides. Had a 100 km trip yesterday, but it's nothing compared to what you ride everyday. Ride safe both of you. Your new subscriber from Russia.

Beautiful video.

[@XzarLim]

cool adventure in Vietnam! Let me know if you have plans to visit the Philippines

[@RollingExistence]

We'll definitely get in touch! We love seeing your photos and video, it looks like such a wonderful place! We weren't able to make it there on this trip but we'd like to plan a standalone tour there in the future 👍

[@XzarLim]

@@RollingExistence Yay! haha I'm thinking of visiting Northern Vietnam

[@HendriAfrizal]

Amazing👍🚴‍♀️

Come back and do it all again in the summer.

Thanks for sharing your trip and experience. I do not have a need to visit Vietnam in my life time but it's great to be able to see it in your video.

[@massorongsepeda]

enchanting journey

[@OkikNarap]

Totally amzing what you guys are doing! Ride safe always

[@MrJx4000]

I gotta say, I've been following you guys for two years now and each ride seems better than the last one. You just seem to have a magic formula in your video taping or editing, I don't know what, but keep up the good work. 👍

[@RollingExistence]

Thank you so much! Glad you're enjoying the videos 😊

[@simai9879]

Awesome 😎 biking trip Vn ❤

[@user-hc2wn2xd3y]

Am glad that Jenny is ok... Would be nice to see you guys conquering China too...

[@RollingExistence]

We'd certainly like to visit someday!

[@RollingExistence]

Thank you!! 😊

[@kongphirom]

Be good for health cycling look good day ! I am your fan !

[@muprock]

I'm so sorry you got hit by that careless rider. I know that stretch between Hoi An and Da Nang, and while it's wide, it has never felt very safe to me. Most Vietnamese riders/drivers are reasonably cautious, but you occasionally see some shockingly careless moves. You got some great shots! I especially like the one of the sleeping dog. You both seem to have just the right attitude for this. Safe and fun travels!

[@SlowMovingSaddles]

Glad that crash didn’t end with an injury (or worse)! Love to watch your videos and really looked forward to this one. And it didn’t disappoint at all! Just for me: would be great to see more on how you get a place to stay and see some interaction with the locals. Other then that, keep on rollin’! Looking forward to the next video!❤

[@Khanhdq70]

Enjoy my country and be safe ! ❤

Sorry to hear about the scooter incident. But glad the damage was just to the bags. And the sushi boat looked amazing!

[@anakrantauorg]

a very good journey, hopefully we can get to Bengkulu, Sumatra, Indonesia. stay careful and healthy always on your cycling journey

[@HUYHAIVietNam]

I saw my hometown at 6:16 :D wish you guys have a good and safety trip !

[@chiennguyenminh6371]

this is my hometown. Quang Binh - a beautiful province of Vietnam

[@ETorres-AA7TI]

Glad that you are ok Jenny .. tough busy traffic Asian country .. Philippines is not exception as well .. but when you get outside the Manila area should get better .. be safe and thank you for posting your adventures .. so proud of making this leap to go out there and do bike tour this long .. take care

[@SNRoad]

Nice

[@alafenetre81]

Wow! Traffic in cities is just insane. You must have felt very vulnerable in a few situations.

[@RollingExistence]

Definitely, the intensity is hard to get used to!

[@KJSvitko]

Walking, running, bicycles, escooters, green open spaces, electric buses and trams are all parts of a good transportation system

[@dinhduylong01]

welcome to Vietnam 😊😊😊

[@RollingExistence]

Thank you!! 😊

[@nguyentri5961]

Hello from Viet Nam

[@refeeld]

Wonderful views! I never been interested about Vietnam, but this video make me interesting for Vietnam🇻🇳 Thanks so much for using our songs🙏

[@la5150hi-lophoto]

Quite the adventure...maybe I'm just getting too old but the hazards outweigh the benefit...between the weather and traffic and road conditions it is pretty darn stupid. I'm surprised more accidents didn't happen.

[@franknobody5965]

Glad that nothing serious happened in the crash!! Did the person at least stop?!

[@RollingExistence]

The person did stop to make sure Jenny was ok. There wasn't too much to be done though, especially with the language barrier. She was very apologetic.

[@ART-qw9ds]

👍

[@Mattthewanderer]

You two ate that ENTIRE sushi boat???? WOW. :) There were lots of impressive things but that one stood out!

[@RollingExistence]

We were really hungry 😅

[@nghiepbui4698]

We should really avoid the highway when cycling through Vietnam. However, interesting experiences with nature and people will be worth the trade-off. Really sorry about the accident at the last minute. A warning light and a small bell are tips to avoid unnecessary accidents when we cycle in Vietnam. Our traffic and culture are improving day by day. Hope you are excited in the next coming to Vietnam. Thanks!

[@JmartiStudio]

Do you recommend single-speed bikes and why don't you use bikes with suspension? It's not more comfortable for all types of terrain. Can you explain it to me?

[@FollowThomas]

Almost no cars, motorcycle seems to be the main transportation there. 👍

[@RollingExistence]

Definitely, the motorcycle traffic is the most intense out of everywhere we've cycled!

[@franknobody5965]

I really enjoy your videos! It seems that you travel quite swiftly...i.e. not party pace...what is your typical avg. speed, when you don't have epiq climbs? Also, it looks like you are running 28" wheels....not so common in the US...will you do a Video on the bikes?

[@RollingExistence]

If it's flat ground we typically cruise around 12mph. But it all depends on the wind, the scenery, road conditions, etc. We do have a video on our bikes (and you're correct on the tires), it should show up on our channel homepage 👍

[@timhobin8490]

Please please please...ride the Chinese border nth of Hanoi....but go light it's super hilly. I've travelled alot in my life and the mountains and people are outstanding....good luck

[@Jeraestone]

Hey Guys enjoying your Channel can you direct me to a vid that Details your Boxing / Packing gear / Bike between Flights and Countries?👍

[@nmqhoaphuongo2635]

Well come to Việt nam ❤❤❤❤❤

[@endtimeslips4660]

i advice when you want visit beach in Vietnam do not go when it look cloudy and windy. some time in Vietnam there will be a typhoon. people who not know Vietnam well don't know this thing. typhoon in Vietnam is cruel it deadly sometime best just find some hotel. and see the beach tomorrow if weather going well

[@118248]

I love to see you guys cycling. And I especially like the parts from Thailand which I also cycled last winter. I noticed you guys also enjoyed it much. But I have to ask ... do you wear only one shirt and do you ever wash it?

[@RollingExistence]

Yes, we each have one cycling shirt. In SE Asia where we were sweating a lot and staying in hotels, we would wash them pretty much every night. In cooler climates we wash them less often.

[@nmqhoaphuongo2635]

Các bạn thật là phi thường xin cảm phục các bạn chào mừng các bạn đến việt nam hy vọng các bạn sẽ có được nhiều niềm vui

[@RollingExistence]

Thank you so much! 😊

That sushi boat! 8o)

[@ThuanDuong-pv3xu]

Are you happy when you come to Vietnam with difficulties on the way?That's how Vietnam is, hard and busy, what will you describe to your loved ones when you are in our country? Wish your journey more favorable and sunny

[@RollingExistence]

We had a wonderful time in Vietnam despite a couple difficult experiences! It's a beautiful country and we hope to return one day 😊

[@rabh6746]

I'm glad Jenny wasn't hurt in the accident, that was a crazy ride! They sure love to blast their horns there, I might move out there and become a horn salesman😉I hope South Korea will be good to you both, looking forward to the next part of your adventure👍

Sabaidee.What camera brand you do this vlog

[@RollingExistence]

We mostly use a GoPro Hero 8 and a Fuji XT-4.

[@vientran8109]

I am not surprised you got hit by scooter in Vn because many people there don’t even know they need to wear eye glasses 😂😂😂admire your guys adventure

[@thuongyen]

Vietnam Welcomes you

[@KJSvitko]

Bicycles, ebikes, electric cargo bicycles, robo taxis and escooters are great options for last mile, short distance travel. Reduced transportation costs and fossil fuels free transportation. Cities need to do more to encourage people to ride bicycles by providing SAFE, PROTECTED BIKE LANES and trails. Every adult and child should own a bicycle and ride it regularly. Bicycles are healthy exercise and fossil fuels free transportation. Electric bicycles are bringing many older adults back to cycling. Ride to work, ride to school, ride for health or ride for fun. Children should be able to ride a bicycle to school without having to dodge cars and trucks. Separated and protected bike lanes are required. It will also make the roads safer for automobile drivers. Transportation planners and elected officials need to encourage people to walk, bike and take public transportation. Healthy exercise and fossil fuels free transportation. In the future cities will be redesigned for people not cars. Crazy big parking lots will be transformed with solar canopies generating free energy from the sun.

[@craigrmeyer]

How did you find these sweet routes that weren't the big highway? A certain app?

[@RollingExistence]

We use OSMand+ for android for all our route finding, we use the bicycle navigation feature set to 'balanced' and it suggests us all sorts of crazy routes. We don't normally follow it exactly, we just take the suggestion and customize it with the goal of avoiding highways as much as possible but not adding a ton of unnecessary miles.

[@craigrmeyer]

@@RollingExistence OSMand+ got it. Well done.

Brilian dunia in 🇮🇩

[@VeloObscura]

Rohloffs paying for themselves at 3:33! Interesting that you got flipped off and whatnot occasionally. Any theories as to why that is? Because you're American? Because you're white? I've never head any bike tourer mention that happening to them while in Vietnam - although I suppose most people don't really mention the negatives. Other than that, Vietnam looks amazing. I'd love to ride the Ho Chi Minh road, but there's so much cool stuff on the coast too! Might be a wiggly one! 😅 p.s. Glad Jenny wasn't hurt in the crash. Frustrating, but all part of the adventure in SE Asia I guess!

[@louyht7]

I bet those flipped them off are kids lol. There youtubers they drove motorbike from southern Vietnam to northern Vietnam and along the way there are kids flipping them off it was hilarious.

[@vibnwis]

Good on you for eating so much of Pizzas, Sushies, etc, at least get some sugary pleasing stuff from Vietnam. Take care though

[@Bikepacking]

Looks like pizzas 4P ..if so there amazing

Did you meet Cruise?

[@GordoGambler]

Or lazy a$$ fat boy ELI. LOL. Cruise and Thong are like vampires only riding near dusk. Weird thing is 90% of the tour bikers don't stop in DaNang. Some crazy leftover ideas from the war, I guess. It's actually a tame place compared to Saigon and Hanoi. Hoi Anh wasn't that great to me. Water side docks and a bunch of tourist clothing and trinket shops. It was dark when I got there and only rode around an hour in the morning drizzle and on to DaNang for a night. The buskers dragged me to the Marble mountain statue making place.
