Tenerife Bikepacking - My daily struggles

[@santacruzbikevids]

Hello here from Santa Cruz (California--ha!). Thanks for your honesty in reflecting on highs and lows of what looks like a great trip. Peace!

Years ago when I was touring, I balanced out my weight on the bike with low center of gravity panniers in the front. That gave me great bike control while fighting the winds, hills, etc. Don't know what's available now in today's market, but knowing what I experienced back then, I wouldn't change a thing. I felt like I controlled the bike, especially when cars and trucks were passing me. Anyway, enjoy the trip, you're only young once. PS...Just wanted to add, if you're biking and feel safe with the other biker, drift off each other where it's safe, especially in winds and going up hills taking turns leading (every couple of minutes) as you'll be surprised how much energy you save.

Brilliant... Watching these from the start!!! Well done you. Fantastic adventure. Sheffield England

[@marymiron03]

I freaking love these videos! You truly are living the dream. I´m planning on flying to Canary Islands from Finland and then biking home next march so it´s great to see Canary Islands in your vlogs.

Great real vid, I've ridden the road a fair bit on Tenerife but the bikepacking, camping looks really good. Bit different to the terrain I camp in the UK. ATB on your journey

Mega schön geworden 😃 Bei dir ist das Wetter anscheinend schöner als bei mir, vielleicht sollte ich auch zur Insel rüber wechseln 😂 Chris ist seit über 10 Jahren unterwegs, Wahnsinn! Reisen ist auch einfach geil! Pass auf dich auf, wir hören uns 💛

[@esraoozen]

you go girl

[@hdtag6247]

I don't want to crush your vibe but you should really wear a helmet!

[@paulwilliams8588]

I agree...plus you can get fined in Spain for not wearing one

[@indiopeltier9758]

As a bicycle Courrier,I concur

[@chuto4826]

I was thinking about that too

[@harryv6752]

I second that. Please do. 🙏

[@rachelfox9974]

[@giantcheerio]

I just stop wherever it is nice :)

[@dropeipromundo]

[@karmatravelogue]

How do you manage to capturing all these beautiful scenes with you having lovely ride. With all these making how long are able to ride a day? ❤

[@giantcheerio]

It depends on the day, on how I feel and the external circumstances but I ride 30- 100 km a day

[@Hootyhoo-jq9vq]

Salud from America. You must come here to cycle some day. Safe travels.

[@naturalplantas]

Essa música da abertura é você cantando ? 😊❤

[@Daemowa]

[@iusanleontin7648]

Hi, How did you get to Teneriffe ? By fery or by plain ?

[@giantcheerio]

First time by Ferry, second time by plane:)

[@nuoutdoor]

good paced video! cheers !

[@jrb1737]

❤️

[@Samthemancharles]

Love your music! It would seem really hard to hold the camera out while riding rough roads or fast downhills.

[@flapsfalkland5181]

Excellent video! Just found you and subscribed x

[@patriklundgren6393]

[@tiliaraven6949]

Huhu lala, hier Tina. Ich wünsche dir alles Liebe und Gute🥰 grüssle auch von ronny

[@The-GreenHornet]

Question... how do you or did your friend Chris support your tour financially?

[@giantcheerio]

Well you need at least a little bit of money while being on the road. But the good thing is that you can be creative on how to make that income:)

[@tekknosa]

Wie kannst du nur am Strand übernachten, habt ihr keine Angst erwischt zu werden? Es fliegen hier in Teneriffa ja jede Nacht Helikopter der Küstenwache an der Küste rum. War das bei dir auch so?

[@Peter-ew2gq]

What kind of bike do you use? And for you bagage?

[@giantcheerio]

Giant Revolt & I use Ortlieb panniers.

[@centeioalves6515]

Well first off thanks for not wearing ritualistic head-covering . Thanks for the wild camps and real talk . 👍

[@giantcheerio]

Haha I just recently bought one of these head coverings!

[@MicahCallough]

First and last time watching. To much negativity for me. Also wear a helmet!

[@erikthys3911]
