Kenosha Pass is STUNNING!-Bikepacking the Colorado Trail-Episode 3

[@duzer]

How bout those Aspens? That wonderful family? The flowers? My brother and his cute family? This was a great day!

[@yannickb.9237]

Thank you Ryan for making me dream! Greetings from France.

[@jag1870]

Great vid as usual Ryan. Keep livin' the dream!!!

[@yousef2508]

like always, great video, Ryan! please make a video about the bike saddle and recommend a comfortable one (I'm not sure if you have already made one). I am really struggling to find a good one.

[@alesiabock9305]

I Love Love Love all the downhill single track footage. It almost feels like we’re with you. Carry on! Ole’ my friend!

[@printerror]

That Aspen forest definitely triggered an emotionally peaceful moment. You're making me want to ride the CT!!!

[@outbackwack368]

Man, if everyone in the world was as loving, caring, positive, appreciative and generous as you, the planet would be SAVED! Thank you, Ryan!!!

[@duzer]

Out here trying my best to spread the love!

[@91722854]

agree, can really feel the compassion of Ryan when he expresses the beauty of life via biking

[@TonyNelsonCamping]

Agreed!! Ryan is the kind of Spirit this world needs more of. We need to celebrate humans like him every day!! 🤩💪🥳

[@amylipkin2116]

NO truer words!!

[@vicki2266]

So true, & we’d all be a lot happier.

[@peggyelefson6088]

It WAS trail magic meeting you on the trail! Best moment of our Colorado vacation! Thank you for stopping and chatting with our family. We continue to be inspired by you…and wow! The video of the aspens-you captured how we felt too hiking! Memories we will always cherish 🤗 Tom, Peggy, Cam, Parker & Erica

[@duzer]

I LOVED meeting you and your family, it was a highlight of my entire ride. Hope you’re all doing well

[@cameronelefson7163]

It was really nice to meet you, and it be famous for two seconds on KZbin, I get out there and on my bike every chance I get it when it’s nice out.

[@duzer]

It was great meeting you as well!! That was a highlight of my day. Happy trails

[@ianbarr4716]

Ryan, in each video I get soooo confused. Is my heart supposed to be filled with adventure and a desire to "get out there"? Or is my heart to be filled with love for the human race? You seem to do both here. Amazing stuff, dude. Cheers.

[@duzer]

It’s a great conundrum to be in, right? Getting out there leads to random interactions with wonderful people, which in turn leads to a greater appreciation for our fellow humans.

[@ClockCutter]

"Figuring it out as they go." People need a lot more of that.

[@Digital.Done.Right.]

"this is your Patreon reward" what a rich moment. He got off the sofa and got out there! Well done Ryan

[@punacana]

No crashies, no flatties, no whammies!!! 🙂🤘🏻

[@user-ev8jc7uo1v]

Yep and no windies

[@JustJake77]

Am I the coveted first? The older couple who are fans, made my heart happy and my face smile. Again just shows Rayn is making the right kind of impacts in peoples lives. Without doing much other then sharing his oassions. Also... Stoked to be here on this Sunday morning.

[@duzer]

I’m stoked that you’re here!! Meeting that couple was a highlight for sure, they were so sweet!

[@davidspencer4431]

Not true. There would be a worldwide bean shortage. :)

[@josephberlin5987]

Ryan has such great outlook that raises the spirit of this old cynic. Thanks Ryan.

[@SNOWDONTRYFAN]

I am in the UK, and i am impacted !, more so by the great USA outdoors seen from the ground and in the air , and of course the values and attitudes of all the people featuring in these outings .

[@jaytroxel3495]

RVD..the well of positivity you draw from daily is..thankfully..endless.

[@keelybradshaw1348]

Emotional Payday. I’m so stealing that.

[@marianlenehan9618]

‘What you say we go on the Colorado Trail’ ….yes please 👍Thanks for another wonderful video 💕

[@hemaccabe4292]

Imagine being out on a family trip and you run into Ryan. Can’t beat that.

[@libertyfarmsiowa]

Ryan, you're such a truly sincere guy. Your vids draw people in for the biking, hiking, etc. (adventures), but they stay for the humanity.

[@duzer]

Thanks, sharing the human side of my adventures is priority #1

[@michaeldismukes4439]

No better affirmation for what you do than that story from those nice people from Missouri!

[@castle228]

Your footage from the Aspens was awesome!! The shot looking straight up the tree then backing up a little......I felt like I was right there with you!! So many wonderful people. Such incredible views! Thanks Beans!!

[@zaldys.5978]

Watching you from California ride safe and stay healthy

[@QuetherV]

I just bought a bike....ready to get out there. I've been watching your videos all week. Talk about positive mindset. Exactly what I need in this season of life

[@duzer]

Right on!! Have so much fun out there!!

[@peterfernandezjr5914]

What a day, you run into a few beautiful strangers, a very positive experience indeed, and then end the day in the company of your family. This has got to be one of the nicest days that you've ever experienced.

[@duzer]

It definitely was!

[@hordboy]

The Missouri couple, that’s so awesome. I stopped in Boulder and had a Duzerito burrito and next thing you know Dana arrived. It’s great how things are so interconnected.

[@duzer]

So cool that you got the famous Duzerrito and got to meet Dana!!

[@hordboy]

Offer still stands next time I’m there if you’re around I’m buyin!

[@Insert_Screename_Here]

Your brother rocking an old Detroit Tigers hat makes him immediately twice as cool. Love watching your videos, was a great day to chill out for 30 minutes after my road ride this afternoon.

[@kimrice394]

Fellow Missourians!

[@jameslopez958]

You earned Bike Packer Cred from those New Generation Bikers Brother 😎✌️😁

[@telepopepic]

You always bring light to those you meet.

[@bruce2keys270]

Ryan you are just like Mira !!! You spread Love, Joy, Happiness and Cheer where ever you go !!! You are a positive influence into lives of people by encouraging us to get out there and enjoy life outside. Take a second and think about how many people's lives you have touched over the years, it's amazing ! Thanks for touching my life too, through your videos and maybe one day I'll get lucky and get to meet you on the trail as well !! Peace Man !!!

[@hemaccabe4292]

How generous of those trail magic people!

[@DylTyrril]

Simply couldn't think of a more fitting way to cap off a Sunday evening. Thank you for taking us along as always! The interaction with that family towards the middle was especially heartwarming. The power of human connection for you.

[@duzer]

Loved meeting them

[@ArtofFreeSpeech]

Wish I could like this video 1000 times. They make me so happy to watch and make me look forward to the fall riding season (no Floridian in their right mind rides during the summer).

[@hemaccabe4292]

You have a lovely family. They have a beautiful home.

[@winnieyyc-fox9612]

It's so amazing to meet people who know you ❤

[@duzer]

It sure is!

[@qq2441]

Always good to spend some time in the Colorado high country...and meeting other nice folks along the way.... really enjoying your footage of the CT. Many thanks ...happy trails! ❤🇨🇦

[@cholikickrocks8976]

I love watching 👀 your videos after work...I get home abt 12 midnight ...very relaxing and you make me smile 😃 ☺....

[@duzer]

I’m so glad to hear that! Thanks for tuning in

[@robikelley5981]

Last week my husband and I were recovering from Covid and it made us feel so much better sitting there watching your adventure with smiles on our faces! Thanks so much for sharing your travels and your loving positive attitude. I see episode four is available and we can’t wait to watch it later after dinner, like a dessert.❤️

[@duzer]

I hope you feel better soon

[@wvoutdoorsman5326]

Loved the trip. Thanks for taking us along. Was great to run into your subscribers.

[@derekmann857]

So much energy from Ryan Van Duzer. Its just wonderful!!

[@Kilongkumer]

The only channel I love watching without skipping a bit.

[@winnieyyc-fox9612]

What a trail magic! Unbelievable, incredible 👏 too amazing to be true

[@gamaro74]

The small interview with that couple made me smile with empathy - "It's a mood lifter" - That's what I like the most and I also never felt that need before... Now I'm addicted.

[@duzer]

They are such nice people, so glad that I met them!

[@hemaccabe4292]

We watch your videos. They have a huge impact.

[@LoriG75]

Serendipity 😁 You are one of those special people who spread sparkle wherever they go! Happy and safe travels 😊

[@livingsimplytosimplylive6817]

I had to add another comment, “gosh trail magic that is so awesome.”

[@thrivingnow7843]

I love your interactions with people. The scenery is amazing ! 🌵🏜️☀️🥰

[@peterfernandezjr5914]

Must be so satisfying for you when you meet folks that you inspired to get out and enjoy the outdoors and as a result become healthier and more fulfilled. That alone should motivate you to continue doing what you do so well.

[@patrickglenn2969]

Just rode this segment of trail this past weekend and it’s probably my favorite section of the CT so far!

[@duzer]

It’s so smooth!

[@dennisdownes9319]

It's so great in life sometimes when the "famous celebrity people" turn out to be Ryan, Dana, Ryan's Mom, and some young guys not afraid to go out into the "great unknown." Adventure Literature at its best!! DD

[@scottbauman]

So cool to meet people that watch your videos. When my wife and I go back to Colorado sometime maybe we'll run into you. but until then, I'm riding with you on all your adventures (virtually). also trying to make plans for RAGBRAI 2022.

[@duzer]

Hope to meet you at ragbrai next year!

[@jessvarey2597]

Your enthusiasm for life is infectious. Thanks for making my day.

[@duzer]

Thanks for making my day with your comment!

[@robertbotta6536]

Another beauty. Thanks buddy.

[@chrislonsberry1974]

The last downhill looked like SO much fun!! It’s wonderful that you are coming across people who follow your channel and true to your personality, you are so gracious with everyone. If everyone would take on that attitude we would all be in a better place!

[@GreenGj-]

It wasn't fun for D&RG 346!

[@livingsimplytosimplylive6817]

Ryan you simply rock, now dropping the mic 🎤

[@winnieyyc-fox9612]

This is a very beautiful trail. Thank you for taking us there. Wish I could bike with you!

[@cdmiller51]

Every time you are in Silverthorne, I think of my family's winter vacation to Keystone. Our last day we stumbled upon the Mountain Lyon Café in Silverthorne. Still the best breakfast I have ever eaten. :-)

[@RecapturingLife]

On my bike ride across America your videos have been something I look forward too after a long days and weeks of biking. It has helped me change my mindset about hills and trying longer miles. Here soon I’ll be heading into the mountains. This series has been encouraging. All your videos are encouraging. Also I have to say I have indeed come across so many wonderful people. People have been so kind to me so far. I’m really glad I came across your videos when I did because I enjoy being out here. Even when it’s hard.

[@hemaccabe4292]

Keep being awesome!

[@argcdm]

Been struggling lately. Your videos help me feel better. Thank you.

[@tonyankele2903]

Thanks again Ryan on another Epic Ride... Your Awesome!..

[@fakami11]

thank to you, I have rekindled my love for biking. Now i want to buy a Priority Apollo.

[@duzer]

That's a great bike!

[@hoser7706]

This is an impressive route and adventure for experienced adults. But man oh man what a hell of an adventure for 4 teenage kids!!! The newness, the camraderie and fun!!

[@duzer]

They were having the time of their lives!

[@g4g412]

GOALS!!! Thank you, Ryan

[@CanadianSledDog]

I first got into hiking with my dog and thought the same thing, I'm always telling her to wait for me, even with her backpack on. That was when I thought, wouldn't it be cool if I could just carry all our stuff on a bike, and keep up with her? So we ended up bikepacking, now Zora just has to wait for me uphill and I wait for her downhill. Meeting people like that is Zora's favorite part of travel.

[@LeonardOutdoorsNM]

I'm loving the videos, but the music is fabulous! Mountains, bikes, great people, and soothing music - great for the soul!

[@duzer]

I try my best to find good music

[@SandraMartinez-qx6hc]

Such a great trail. That downhill segment was amazing, another great video. Van Duzer for President 2024.

Will you be my campaign manager? ;)

[@TravelingThru222]

@@duzer Absolutely, keep riding brother.

[@mdtippett]

Like many others, I have been impacted by your videos. I am too old to get into the riding form I once had--I was twenty then--I am at least getting back into reasonable shape. Your videos have been a major part of that. I am due for knee surgery in a couple of weeks, but hopefully I will back on my bike quickly.

[@marcoferrao]

Had a rough ride yesterday, alomost crashed - my friend did. Feeling sore today. You helped me remender all the other good things that happened and the beatiful places I went.

[@jacoolckers6465]

Well Ryan, you said it (Get out there). When you get there, be in the moment. Its an adventure, not a race to your destination. From a cold (not for long) South Africa.

Another wonderful video that brings happiness, and a renewed faith in the human race! Thanks Ryan for sharing your journey!😘
