An Award winning film from Griffon Media about Paul Pritchard's recumbent trike 'pilgrimage' to Mount Everest. Accompanied by Carol Hurst the ride took them on 1150km across the Himalaya from Lhasa to Kathmandu via Everest Base Camp.

I just got my recumbent bike. And one thing I’m learning is that this thing made of metal, plastic and wire affords freedoms to some and empowers them to do things they thought they would never do. I respect a machine that does that, even though it has no soul,or,life to it, I like to think that it does; and in doing so I consider it my comrade in wherever life takes me. I will continue to use my recumbent trike and give it the care it deserves. It amazes me that this man’s bike took him to the edge of Everest. Amazing!

Thank u for such a great journey in your life. I am recovering from a compound fractures n crushed vertebrae fell 5ft from my bed onto cement/tile. I also have a fusion with hardware n artificial disc above that in my lumbar. An too was veryyy much like yourself. As I went through training n ole paradog n yrs down in south America with DEA in the early years. That's where things really went south. I made it somehow thru it with injuries n a TBI. Tieing my shoes at 25 was a absolute thrill when I did. So many things most people never know the how moment in life. I've been shot x 2, stabbed, viper bite, Cayman bite low calf n my greatest dropped into the triple canopy of the jungle n lost 3 of my veryyy best friends all in a flash it seemed. So you are not alone my friend,,, I hope u put many miles on that trike of yours n look to hear about that as well. I am going get a Scorpion fs26 electric hub next spring. Well, if I am still alive n kicking. I have 6 heart stents so every day is generous n a great blessing from God. Take care my friend, Ty Clark northern Michigan

Great trip, great video, thank you. And hi Ian, Scotland. I am also 77 and dropped cars 2 years ago and my ICE recumbent trike is my only transportation. I had a stroke about a year and a half ago, and the VA helped me get this lovely trike. The VA helped with the basic trike like these heroes are riding. I paid extra for electric assist and full suspension, and 25% off for demo model helped a lot. I've ridden a little without the electric assist. This was an amazing adventure.

You're quite amazing. I've recently bought a trike (ICE Adventure FS) and the thought of a trip like this has me all emotional again. LOL :) Well done mate - can't wait to hear of your exploits.

I’m 67 and I had a compressed spinal cord and a few years ago had two surgeries (combined about eighteen hours total) to fuse five vertebrae, and two laminectomies-to decompress the cord. The neurosurgeon described my spinal cord as having been “squished”. I’m fortunate to still be able to walk. I have lost a significant amount of sensation in both legs and feet, but I can still walk-slow and with a cane. After a lot of PT, I was able to stand and balance and walk. But I rapidly lost lower body strength. walking wasn’t much of an option since at the speed of 1-2 miles an hour, I couldn’t get my heart rate up. Stationary bikes are very boring. So I got an eBike and am rebuilding my lower body. The sensation may never return, but I need to stay strong. I am looking at recumbent eTrikes now, after a couple of falls on the two-wheeler. I need to keep moving and exercising and I enjoy cycling, so it seems like a logical thing to do. So I have the eBike for when I feel capable and the way is smooth, and I’ll soon have a trike for more rough surfaces where I absolutely do not want to fall on loose gravel, small rocks or what-have-you. This is the kind of adventure I only dream about at this point in my life. But there are many more achievable adventures I hope to accomplish.

Thank you Clive, you just gotta keep doing stuff hey. Perhaps look at Lowest To Highest on Vimeo about cycling up Mt Kosciusko in Australia. And Rite Of Passage (KZbin) a journey to the Himalaya with my son.

Paul: this is a lovely film. I was thinking about you - I have just re-read Deep Play, which is (still!) one of my top 3 climbing books of all time. I must have read it 10 times over the years. So I thought I'd look you up on KZbin and found this. I really enjoyed it and felt inspired and moved by your reaction to the adventure. Thank you!

Thank's Hugh, You're too kind! Hey, you may also be interested in Doing It Scared - and Lowest To Highest - which is about another trike trip I did last year. You have to pay for these but only a modest amount. Best, PP

I always seem to come back to watch this video... So admireable and inspirational. My mishappen was far far from as dramatic and scary as yours, I had a brain stroke and heart issues, but watching this video brings hope to my life. Utmost respect and greetings from Lofoten, Norway.

I just came across this video. It was very inspirational to watch and made me realize what unmotivated and lazy nimwit I can be. I have a lot of respect for what you have accomplished and hope you can continue. I have a trike also and have enjoyed riding it way more then I ever did a road bike. Although, I miss the speed of the road bike. I still wouldn't trade it for anything. I've talked about trying a few small trike tours but never seem to be motivated enough to get in the physical condition I would need to do it. Perhaps this inspirational video will kick my butt in gear. Thanks for sharing. And, I just have to say that the trike has got to be one of the best physical therapies for your body and has to be helping your bad leg to some degree. I would think that it would help strengthen it even if you are not using it much. If anything, it should continue to help your physical coordination.

Because it appears there are persons out there with a congenital deformity which seems to make them incapable of joy, hope, or inspiration. They deserve our pity for the singularity of hope that they call their 'lives'. They deserve our scorn for the enjoyment they take in attempting to bring others to join them in their miserable existence.

A good Earl Grey has never gone amiss on that end! On a more personal note, you inspired me to get my own trike. After a fairly severe interaction with an auto, I found myself with difficulty riding my bicycle. (Was travelling 40kph, in the US, and someone passed me on the left to do a hard right turn at 55kph, carried me around the curve, and gave me a lovely gift of a concussion, and severe tendon/ligament strains.) Had I not been wearing motorcycle gear to pick up a motorcycle, I fear I'd not be about. The trike has been a bit of a new grant on life, I'm out doing things and seeing things again, so my thanks! Whilst not measuring up to your Odyssean trek, I'm planning a few hundred miles of trips this summer through the mountains here in Idaho, and possibly through bits of Oregon, Montana, and Wyoming. I'll have a cup of tea in your honour. Or more likely several.
