Wow amazing scenery! Great to see you again on your tours.

[@CiaranRawlinson]

Thanks! And I think the scenery gets even better in Alberta!

Brilliant video. I'm heading to Anchorage in July with the plan to cycle to Mexico so your video has been a fantastic preview of what's to come. Your Japan video has also been a great help as I will be cycling there too in May-June. Keep up the great work.

[@CiaranRawlinson]

Sounds amazing! I definitely want to cycle Alaska sometime. Hopefully my next videos are also useful if you're thinking of taking a more inland route! You'll love Japan too!

Thanks Ciaran for the quick reply. When I video my next motorcycle trip I will let you know. Thinkong of a trip to Barra in March. Best regards Mark

[@CiaranRawlinson]

Thank you! 👍

[@shinzuimartin9725]

following you since your adventures in Japan. Best cycling videos on the web

[@CiaranRawlinson]

Thanks so much! Will hopefully be able to catch up on my videos of this trip over summer.

Awesome. Im planning a trip from Sparwood into B.C. through the Elk Valley Trail and into others...But I have to figure out how to afford a bike first lol and time off from my job

[@CiaranRawlinson]

Good luck! Time off is the hardest thing for most people. For my first trip I flew to Barcelona and bought the cheapest mountain bike in Decathlon for around €120! Go with whatever you can afford.

Thanks for publishing another fantastic video of you Canadian trip. I have been up to Whistler mountain but not as remote as your travels take you. You are brave wild camping with the threat of bears, I think I would be in a camp site where possible! After watching your Hebredian way trip I asked you what camera you were using. On your advice I bought a GoPro hero 5 black. I have used it on a trip to Salzburg in January. Great quality but cannot figure out how to Zoom in with it. Any advice on how to zoom? Keep making the interesting videos.😀

[@CiaranRawlinson]

It's not possible to zoom with a GoPro. I probably recommended my Canon Powershot for zoom. It is possible to give a slight zoom effect when you're editing the clip, by cropping it. I did this to see the bear at 5.55. But you lose some of the quality. The bear clip at 4.14 is from my Canon Powershot.

Awesome vid! Did you feel safe cycling? I am looking into doing Calgary to Vancouver through Banff and Jasper

[@CiaranRawlinson]

Yeah. I usually feel pretty safe when cycling. My only worry is usually the cars, but I didn't have many problems with this in Canada. The icefield parkway from Jasper to Banff has a big shoulder!

Amazing vid, thanks for sharing! One Day i go for a bikepacking trip to Canada. Looks very nice!

[@CiaranRawlinson]

Thanks a lot!
