Endless Singletrack-The Tahoe Twirl BikePacking Adventure-Ep 4

[@duzer]

These views made my heart happy, and I hope they did the same for you.

[@c19commander44]

I notice you are not a fan of tight riding clothing for bikes(me neither)

[@mattinla98]

I love that my house is in the background of the thumbnail for this one, way down there in the Carson Valley. Fantastic footage as usual Ryan. Thanks for these.

[@ruffrydazz2032]

That last pic of the tent under the stars? HOLY SHIT!!! Good stuff!

[@tjernst6315]

Step 1: Watch a Ryan Van Duzer video. (check) Step 2: Go out and ride your bike. Brb...

[@earnestr35]

Hey that's what I had scheduled for today! :-)

[@broomrider7]

Yep, every time😄🚵‍♀️

[@unchewable1]

TJ Ernst love it

[@duzer]

Love it!! Hope you had a great ride

[@pedrofernandez8729]

Great to see an unexpected video from Ryan while he's on his current adventure. I wish him well.

[@bradaquatic]

I know! How does he do that?

[@duzer]

Thanks! I scheduled this before I left...gotta keep you entertained while I’m on the road. Cheers

[@bradaquatic]

Ryan Van Duzer I kinda figured this much. You are good!

[@DiogoChaves]

Thanks for putting this out while Dividing. I have tested the motorbike noises, and checks out, I get 30% more power, for sure.

[@Radishoo]

Add a turbo noise for extra oomph!

[@frankoverman9543]

Some of those drops off to the right send literal shivers down my spine!

[@lindaholmes1920]

Aww this is heavenly. The Tahoe trail is so lovely, and coming after we’v All been shut in for so long is pure medicine. Dom makes a great riding buddy and his humour is a perfect foil for you.

[@chrismiksovsky5871]

Nice. I just did this loop about a week before you. I appreciate all the cuts and shots - those take time. And the drone-flying-while-biking is impressive. I found the ascent after fox and hound to be brutal - so much on and off and hike-a-bike. Nice to know it wasn’t just me! Ha!

[@ryanboeding1318]

As a New Englandite who is totally and always surrounded by trees, this looks great to see for so far. Wonderful footage.

[@pingpongballz5998]

The beginning reminded of that beautiful scene from Brokeback Mountain

[@Chris-Roberts]

Genuinely Ryan keep doing what your doing the quality of production just gets better and better love the positivity stunning scenery always helps but for real love your creations keep up the hard work we obviously don’t see 👏👏👏

[@Siantar_Cules]

My Man.... I hope your adventure continues and I really enjoy it

[@ronheiland6250]

When I saw the water I was hoping you guys were gonna surprise us with some telescoping fishing poles. Camping near the lake, catching some fish, and having some banging fish tacos for dinner. 😀

[@giuliom8520]

Wow, every Trail in Tahoe looks epic! And they all look new because I don't remember any of these twenty years ago.

[@Booksandchess]

Happy to see Dom back

[@CashandCareerConfessions]

The quality of these videos has gotten so much better. So much beauty! I love it. I miss traveling.

[@marcocabral4838]

Awesome to see you out at Tahoe. That section of trail is so majestic. Felt like I was there again watching you guys ride. Last time I was riding my MTB there on that hike-a-bike section we ran into a bikepacker. Definitely a doozy of a section. Good job!

[@DougA597]

I'm lucky enough that these are all my home trails. Cool seeing from the perspective of someone who's seeing it for the first time.

[@billysbikesbrews7183]

Absolutely Stunning... Phenomenal Views.. Lake Tahoe is on my to do list...

[@dudeonbike800]

Oh yeah, another video!!! Not just a "rodent," but a Golden Mantle Ground Squirrel (GMGS) or a Chipmunk. Be aware, Bubonic Plague is endemic to the Sierra, so place your tent and/or bivuac away from burrows. How many are you going to eat? A CASE of dillos! "Don't fall to the left." Good advice, but it depends on how you interpret this. It's actually BETTER to have your wheel go off the trail on the downhill side. If this happens, you usually fall down on the trail. However, if you go off the trail to the uphill side, you are more likely to "high side" and really fly off the trail, which can be a far worse impact. So keep this in mind when traversing steep hillsides. The "tree" at 12:00 should be a Western Cedar. Beautiful. And I must admit I have ridden NONE of these trails, save for the Flume. No TRT to mention. Inexcusable. Unacceptable. Intolerable!!!

[@alexandertaylor8870]

The ride to Star Lake is brutal! Great once you get there though. Awesome adventure and video, thanks!

[@jamesp1045]

Now that was an amazing bit of trail. Great video Ryan.

[@albertoguerra3351]

Fun riding days! Inspiration for us around the world!! 👏👏👏

[@lizdg3892]

Beautiful trail. You are living the life. Thanks for being so pleasant and sharing your experiences.

[@duzer]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@benjamincass2365]

Great video and happy to see the trails I ride and hike from your perspective. The stop for pizza and other food is one of my favorite places, post skiing. Star lake is so worth it. Looking forward to the next days ride.

[@bahamutz3ro524]

Awesome I just woke and see the new post best way to wake up with some coffee. Thanks for the video cant wait to see more and learn more as well Peace and love be with you

[@jun8185]

Amazing scenery. Added to my bucket list!

[@ARJWright]

That last shot... that was a shot wasn’t it.. wow!

[@robjackson4597]

Ryan. I've cc skied up to Marlette Lake from Spooner Lake but have never seen it in the summer. Thanks for the great video shots. Beautiful views of the Carson Valley too! I think you and Dom are having too much fun.

[@blain5827]

You had some great music with the motorbike noises, very impressive cinematography. Thanks for the amazing quality and spectacular adventures ✊

[@duzer]

Thank you very much!

[@mattfinch3895]

Excellent as usual. Well done for giving bikepacking.com a big up fantastic resource that needs to be cultivated. Can't wait for more thanks again Ryan.

[@borapora]

Looks awesome dudes! Just made my first 320km bikepacking trip and it was so good, thank you for all the inspiration!

[@fehrcarlo2381]

The action view in 10:38 - 10:48 is absolutely beautiful!!! You should use it as part of your intro.

[@broomrider7]

Ryan, how thoughtful of you to have videos from you drop for all of us to enjoy while you are out on another awesome adventure!!! Hope you are having a blast my friend!!

[@duzer]

I’m loving the divide, currently writing this from my tent!

[@jeffgilpin]

Welcome to Tahoe...lived here for nearly 30 years....glad you could enjoy.

[@Lughnerson]

Wow, some of this is like I am standing live right in front of you, or riding the bike. I could almost smell the pine trees. The image quality is amazing, as is the scenery.

[@SunandSnowGardening]

Oh, my gosh. Tahoe looks so beautiful. Didn't know it could get that hot.

[@chavaflores6866]

Part 4 so cool, Ryan! At 8:31 shows the resort I was working at. Will be there this week. Your videos never disappoint. Keep it up!

[@pricep12008]

beautiful. thank you ryan

[@AaSinSin137]

that lake is so worth of "bike-packing" :D

[@mikemcgeehan4321]

What a trail! Pictures are awesome.

[@sandeshsanuchappera802]

Namasthe...!!! Lord Ryan ..!!! You looks like Mr. President from the movie Air- Force one .😊👍👍👍 Love from india (Coorg)

[@terryanderson2010]

Loved seeing the trails again. I did the Tahoe 200 race there back in 2017

[@chipandpete]

Enjoying this trips videos a lot!

[@stephenaddy5617]

Crystal clear video. Fantastic stuff 😊.

[@mickeytaylor1499]

Ryan so amazing! That last picture of the tent and sky Gods creation is so awesome!! Thx.

[@bradsanders6954]

Such beautiful mountains. Thanks!

[@1ACORNLAWN]

I've lived in tahoe 36 years, I now use ebikes to rip around...try one, they are so much fun

[@PerfDayToday]

8:55 sounds like your oil/fuel mixture is a bit off..😎👊🏻 Great video, fantastic ride.

[@garryshirreffs9517]

Stunning countryside, great vid

[@medieval4203]

Can't wait to do some bikepacking

[@davidholdman5518]

Great video, stunning scenery, great to see you've got a fellow Englishman along teaching you about porridge and small house living! made me laugh 😃

[@duzer]

I love you crazy Englishmen!

[@d.r.807]

Another amazing video Ryan! Keep it up. Lovin' the editing style

[@Scor-ah]

OH Thank You...this was such a nice treat this morning....Makes me happy to see you back out riding with a friend...enjoy the Great divide

[@bike_somm]

Nice job with the vid! Made me curious about doing something like this ☝🏼😎🎬

[@m__r1100]

What. A. Stunning. Place.

[@ericramosmd]

What a great trip and video. I would love to do a one or two nighter sometime. Thanks for the motivation!!!

[@BIKEPACKINGcom]

Great stuff, Ryan! I'll make sure Cass Gilbert gets your virtual high-five!

[@duzer]

Oh nice!! Make sure you give him a slap on the ass too :)

[@dougshankle7946]

Planning on doing this August 2021 cannot wait. Thank you for making this video!

[@duzer]

You’re gonna love it!

[@chuckw1021]

Great stuff, I just love California. There,s just so much to do.

[@lucamagnanensi]

Better and better videos, super edit!!

[@gary62or45]

Are those cedar trees? star lake is beautiful! great drone footage..... you're on top of it! where are all the tourista's? thank you Ryan and Dom. looking forward to some more!!!!

[@MaShcode]

Only a good friend can call bs on your “moments”. Haha. Dom could be a stand-in for the actor Tim Roth. Looked like such a blast. Really really need a bike trip north to the mountains but as yet I can’t even get my license renewed. Sigh.

[@kevinlooney8200]

That's my neck of the woods but I still haven't been to Star Lake. Great video.

[@AirsoftPOW2]

Ryan, I love your content it has really changed my perspective in hard times. Thank you.

[@duzer]

Thanks my man, that’s the goal! Hope you’re doing well

[@patricelemay1190]

[@duzer]

Glad to provide a breath of fresh air!

[@IanHulme]

Great content again Ryan!

[@giovannitoschi5741]

you inspire me so much. Thank you!

[@hemaccabe4292]

Keep being awesome!

[@thomasdaniel5308]

Another excellent series!

[@tomgesner9731]

Great work Ryan!

[@soloist777]

I concur...oatmeal and porridge are different things. ;-) And the riding looks amazing too. PS: I worry about my fantastic American friends atm.

[@hardmtnbiker]

Looks amazing there! True some of those sections are totally hike a bike when it’s 95 and your bike is loaded with camping gear and water!

[@duzer]

It was way tougher than I expected

[@pamelakay3895]

They did, they really did!

[@Manogluto]

How i wish to have bike like that. Safe ride sir. Philippines here..

[@alexmorgan3435]

Great scenery and filming. Dom seemed like a miserable bastard. Just perfect for this type of ride.

[@keneppink7272]

I love the thumbnail pic looks amazing! 👍🏻

[@timothywalding3142]

Outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@unchewable1]

Awesome as always man I got out on my gravel bike today

[@fredgonzini7099]

Great video as always. Big change going with the gopro. Love to know your thoughts on the gopro vs. The Sony. Keep inspiring people Thank you for what you do

[@StreetRats419]

Bro these bike pack videos are my favorite type and I swear of all I've watched I believe the view from your lil crash might of just been perfect absolutely stunning trail ride bike life !!!!!!!!!!!!!! if this don't inspire you to get out and ride your sleeping

[@KostasLazanas]

What an amazing adventure!!!

[@jeffkatzer]

That was a good one Ryan.

[@youbikewithatube]

Aaron Johnson may have had something to do with pioneering that route. His short films or documentaries on these trails the CTR and the AZT have motivated me for years.

[@ErictoonsTV]

Im Super inspired to your channel and story. I do bike touring too bec of your video🙂

[@PumpkinVillage]

That was epic. Darn rodents! Take care and stay safe, Al

[@alanc6752]

Epic footage.

[@terrors88]

First honest impression of the Pinion please. Is the C1.12 enough or would you go for the P1.18 to have some easier gears?

[@johnwilkes9142]

Loved, “Oatmeal is just undercooked porridge. Americans are in too much of a hurry.” - Dom, 2020

[@noobmaster-dm7tu]

When was this shot?

[@bkelly821]

Good stuff brotein

[@SteveJanney]

sometime in my lifetime I would love to do this.

[@petersmith5227]

20 years ago, on a trip from Europe, my wife and I spent a September week at Eagle Ranch - a MTB campsite near Truckee. We had the place to ourselves. tons of fun but I still have scars. This brings it back. Is eagle ranch still there? Anybody?

[@ashleycalloway9729]

I like them quesadillers too ! 😂

[@chrisbarker270]

You made it bro

[@haleighr3382]

I’m just in love with this adventure! What kind of Trek do you have?? Just got my first one!

[@sagehiker]

If the single track gets really tough, does it become hike-a-bike half track? Just a thought. And Dom is right, those line camps for cows or gold, are tough places. And infested with merino loving mini-bears. Love the story, hope all is going well on the GDMTBR.

[@hypnosiscenternyc]

I love your videos but I would never survive one of your epic trips. I can dream though and watch your vids. Didnt you mention priority was going to introduce a gravel bike ? Looking forward to it. Thanks for sharing all your adventures

[@duzer]

Yes, very soon!!

[@randyjorgensen8363]

I was in Tahoe last fall to visit my brother, and unfortunately drove around the lake in a car. It is PACKED with traffic! It looks like it would be far more enjoyable to do the bike and hike routs.

[@hemaccabe4292]

OMG! You crashed and fell down! I thought that never happened to you because you're so amazing! Now I don't feel like a complete loser for falling off my bike. TY! (I know you probably just did it on purpose to make me feel better.) Don't do that on the side of a mountain please!
