Skitchen Trucks & Climbing Gibraltar (The California Coast Project - ep.3 of 7)

[@mskaira302]

"slow down and east some blueberries"-tyler. These are words I can live by.

[@briangrissom9115]

Next t-shirt idea?!

[@dark.erdwerd]

East?

[@robbogin482]

Thanks for stopping bye The Fork!! Iconic SoCal cycling destination 👊👊 That’s my Chia Sees Porridge, hope you enjoyed🤙🤙

[@TheVCAdventures]

So good! It was a 10/10!

[@mikewikstrom3416]

Jeremiah is really taking the role of “navigator” very casually on this trip….and you can see it is killing Tyler. Haha

[@julianlengfelder]

I love this format! I also love the full Impossible Route video, but this feels so fresh and in the moment.

[@TheVCAdventures]

Stoked to hear. It was a gamble to change up the format but I think is fun to have a new episode everyday vs 1 giant film.

[@DarenC]

@@TheVCAdventures I agree with them; an hour long video can feel like a commitment, so I'm digging these smaller chunks. I miss the Vegan Cyclist channel though 😂 (My bookmark to @TheVeganCyclist was a 404 and I feared the worst for a while!)

[@julianlengfelder]

​@@TheVCAdventures For me it is a kinda like sitting down and watching one episode of my fave tv show of the month. On Netflix this would Big Bang Theory at the moment. On KZbin it is this!

[@adventuresona700dollarhard5]

Bro the soundtrack for this film is 🔥

[@mattregan9134]

"yeah, I'm not sure electronics belong on derailleurs" is one of JB's best lines ever!

[@jmarzee]

One of your best videos. idk why I like it so much. Just feels so relaxed and fun.

[@kain12343]

Sitting here on my ratchet $32 used bike trainer. This video is everything cool about cycling. Thank you for sharing this adventure. Can't wait for part 4!!!!

[@peterm.7497]

I've enjoyed this adventure --- it seems like you are letting the narrative flow naturally and not trying to just add difficulty via the weather and terrain. I've enjoyed all the surprises and twists.

[@robbchastain3036]

I'm really enjoying your series, Tyler, and I cheer your general vibe about it all, do your best, don't sweat the rest. And it is good to have a friend like Jeremiah, even when he scarfs all the free hot cookies at the hotel registration desk like he did yesterday. 😀

[@raulmarquez5485]

Come on JB everyone is saying you have no personality? Love you guys in the impossible routes especially when VC threw himself on the ground and could go no farther! You guys are the Dynamic Duo; great videos of this trip!

[@eamonn9882]

Return of the King! Quality over quantity

[@miggyflo4545]

The best time of year! Is this leading us out into Train Like A Pro 2k23?!

[@ShuttTheFrontDoor]

I hope so. Love the daily vlog series every year. Better than Christmas and Thanksgiving if they happened on the same weekend. LOL

[@danielrussell9416]

As a fellow 62 year-old dude, I approve. Don't underestimate us.

[@jirihutecka9020]

That 62 yo dude is not a vegan that's for sure..

[@dmv4554]

Chill brah

[@garysladek9110]

From one 62 yr old to another, cheers.

[@BIIIKES]

JB is getting more "Get off my lawn" everyday 😂

[@chrishomel9558]

I loved this episode so much. You guys are LEGENDARY. You even stopped at my favorite watering hole with the best vegan vitals. Pedalers Fork. I wish I knew when you were going to be there. Big fan. Definitely looking forward to the rest of the series.

[@garysladek9110]

Cheers, guys , great one. I'm a Gibraltar road old head from the mid 80's. Thanks for stirring up some beautifil memories for me. Be well.

[@JohnMikeBikes]

Love this whole series so far. That climb looked EPIC. Can't wait for tomorrow's fix, I mean video 🤣.

[@franborrero]

loving the short episodes format for imposible route!

[@benverschaeren6467]

I think I want to ride my bike in California! Epic ride and story telling guys!

[@markdeane8385]

Loving the adventure 😍...keep going strong VC.

[@nrf1534]

"if you just drove by at 60 mph, it's not a vibe; it's nothing....." 🤣

[@DanBirasi]

I could watch an episode everyday - 365.

[@Simon-unterwegs]

The dropper has saved my ass more than once when it comes to having a spare battery!

[@GeminiAC33]

Loving this little adventure series nice work guys

[@Normally_aspirated]

4:44. That's so LA- Literally everyone that has made it and survives living there is ridiculously talented

[@BigTscycling]

I can't count the number of times I have watched this vlog today! IT IS SOOOOO GOOD! Great music, great commentary, nice cuts, good footage, it all fits so well! I am loving this series!!! These are the highlights of each day when I wake up lol. Thank you so much Tyler for such great edits on these vlogs! You've inspired me to post my rides, so I have a couple vlogs out now, but I need something better than Virb to edit. 😊

[@VinceEmond]

That’s the best of the series so far! Love when you guys meet up with locals! Also, @Jeremiah, great job on vlogging more lol😂

[@Gravelmisfit_]

Those canyon bikes ❤❤❤❤ I cannot wait to save and get my endurance canyon! ❤❤❤❤

[@tw1npe4ks]

Sick episode 👌🏻

[@facelesssman]

And the 62 year old Larry’s seat was 4 inches too low…….but he is an ANIMAL! He needs to see Nate Loyal in the area, for a legit bike fit!……lol. And Jack is awesome!🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸

[@quarkonium3795]

That's my old stomping grounds! Love the routes in SB. I hope you do Figueroa Mountain for the next leg but if not, you should try it if/when you come back to the Solvang area. Bumpy road in places but absolutely nobody goes up there and views and vibes that are potentially even better than Gib, especially in the spring.

[@marcuspartridge11]

This is by far my favorite Impossible Route so far!

[@TheDudeAndStuff]

Solvang is great, hopefully you were able to snag a bottle of wine before your departure.

[@jameslopez958]

Too Cool 😎 Tucson Arizona Desert 🏜️🙏 Safe Travels ❤

[@jurisauzins9266]

Love the videos! Definitely an inspiration for me.. Thats it - gotta go and buy a gravel ..

[@larsbee]

I do 150 miles in my velomobile... no trouble .... but on a bike? no way... 60 miles fine ... 150 miles ... always have to remember these guys are some of the best out there.

[@ferrisbueller1347]

great vid guys. quite the ride and adventure, and no, electronics dont belong on derailleurs...12:35

[@truesouth100]

Careless whisper!!! YES!!!

[@comel1216]

Solvang, training grounds for Tejay Van Garderen in his BMC days. Riding there is amazing.

[@Southerncyclist]

Yut, bro you have grown some Arms 💪. Sweet videos this mini series. Side note funny, my 2019 105 rear derailer has never ran out of batteries in the whole 8500 miles I have put on it.😎

[@adamweb]

Loving this series so far! Call me an old fart but I'm with Jeremiah, still not a fan of electronic shifting and needing to carry batteries everywhere!

[@rudyelizondo1935]

Cool vid guys and rides either the local home boys

[@stoneybowmann]

This is such a great ride, enjoying the series. Makes me want to dust off ye olde Felt F1C and go for a road ride on the coast. FYI, 10% of that Cotopaxi jacket profit went to the LDS church. The more you know...

[@mntbike3700]

Soundtrack is poopin this vlog, love it 🔥

[@LUISREYES-cf1op]

You guys are lucky we had 25F In Virginia, it looks warmer there!!!!!!!! Awesome video.

[@ChrisP978]

This was filmed back in April, which is the perfect time of year in CA to do this kind of ride.

[@alexharvey2000]

Super glad it’s daily vid time!

[@NeonGrayEdits]

I am loving this series 🫶🏻

[@aaronwilson3952]

Definitely the funnest one yet. Good times eh.

[@ArnageLM]

Kinda dig these vlogs more than the impossible routes 🙈

[@markreams3192]

Your experience with electronic shifting just reinforced my conviction to never buy it!😂

[@pushbeyondaverage]

Awesome content!

[@blackandtan.0075faster]

This is my next adventure, only not as long but a Cali coast line tour for sure!

[@josuemolina9566]

Loving this series! Would you consider putting all of these videos in one massive video? I need trainer motivation!

[@HarryTzianakisTheGodOfSpeed]

2:44 I hate the city but i love to ride in traffic especially alone ! you need to time thigs to not slow you down ,, like lights and stop signs

[@berks12383]

Miss this kind of vlog VC!

[@LOVEisTHEultimateLAW]

The Terminator clip 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ClielTavzTv]

The Navigator say IDK 😂

[@gregfields293]

Love it. Can you share the bike setups?!? Same as Unbound XL?!?

[@marcusgonzales2592]

VC finally found something he thinks he's really good at: route planning. Now he's gonna take it out on Jeremiah and be a total Ahole for the entire trip over "navigation". I'm predicting VC and Jeremiah are over. Who'd want to put up with that passive aggression?

[@TheVCAdventures]

No, I’m not good at navigation or logistics, that’s what JB brings to the partnership. That’s his job. I edit 100% of the videos, I do all the social content, and make sure we have the shots we need to tell a story. It’s a crazy amount of work. So navigating and logistics is his responsibility. So If I do everything, fuk yeah I’m gonna be salty.

[@darreneaton2145]

More of these type of videos please

[@NeonGrayEdits]

It’s been out 9 days. Just did a re-watch 🙂

[@baconegggandcheese]

Most crashes happen when ur riding with someone. *boom #bobaclat

[@BruceChastain]

I knew you were going to say T2. I think so many people think that.

[@elpina587]

YEAaaaaaashhh BOIIIIIIIIII

[@kalani707]

Gibraltar is on the all time faves list, but actually prefer to go up Old San Marcos and descend Gibraltar. And no surprise there is no mention or footage of road from SB to Solvang. That stretch is @$$!! Unlike VC YT, content, which is whatever the opposite of @$$ is!!!😂❤

[@quarkonium3795]

Same, the clockwise route is the best! Stagecoach road is not too bad to go down but the 154 is terrifying

[@lucasbrunelle]

2:58 had to be done

[@youriverstraete4986]

*Crashes into the back of a truck* YEWWW!!!

[@BenjaminStone-s9c]

old man speed is a real thing lol

[@mateusz3162]

Terminator all over the world!

[@reidconti]

Half the reason I went with the AXS dropper was for spare battery storage 😂

[@796monster]

When you’re eating a slice of toast while riding your bike, you realize …….that……………………..??? you’re.

[@the_derpler]

I'm sorry to say but this is kind of a more fun video than the impossible routes, we don't have to watch you take a few years off your life and almost die to make us watch :)

[@DadventuresCyclingClub]

How do you film when both of you pass in front of the camera? Do you go lay the camera, pass in front of it with Jeremiah and then double back to pickup the camera? Or do you have a camera crew?

[@Micolash777]

Where do I get those gloves? I need them in my life

[@SpicyTrifongo]

I thought dropper posts were for descending not ascending? Anyway, glad you enjoyed Gibraltar.

[@Nahhnope]

I'm pretty sure when he said "saved by the dropper post" he was referring to swapping the battery from the dropper to the derailleur.

[@SpicyTrifongo]

@@Nahhnope that makes sense, thanks.

[@PhiLoSoPheR_NonSenSe]

So for your bike setup, I think if you used a 2x crankset, the climbs would have been easier. The tiny but extra weight could be used as training.🤔 Then again, who am I talking about? Someone who says 150 miles on a human powered two-wheeler a day isn't anything to write home about whilst I think I've done enough riding 72km a day in a week... Yeah, I don't know what I'm saying.

[@Bsowczy123]

The song at the end sounds like it was made with “incredibox” app???

[@TheVCAdventures]

Yep!

[@saldencalcena2721]

More vlogs to go✨

[@Mclovinthedank]

Are you uploading these now because you already have all the content you need for december daily videos? Thats what im hoping!

[@TheVCAdventures]

Vlogs start after this series. I’m filming and editing the daily’s now. “The time got frostbite on my pecker racing fatbikes” is the first daily vlog 🥶

[@Mclovinthedank]

@@TheVCAdventures Spoiler! hyped!

[@leod4315]

Did they take Topanga? did not appear so

[@TheVCAdventures]

No, we went through Beverly Hills. It saved a bunch of time.

[@gregbrown3764]

VC content every day??? What is this, 2017?

[@ComeListenyo]

What was that intro song? Sounded amazing.

[@TheVCAdventures]

So, I made it, kinda. Theres an app called incredbox, it’s a super fun beat making app that’s very easy to use. I created custom beats for this series using it. So there’s not really a name for it, but you can make your own.

[@the_derpler]

Who the heck says 155 miles doesn't seem like a lot?

[@tednruth453]

Honeymoon suite sir's?

[@Normally_aspirated]

2:01. STOP IT

[@thaynamite]

That short format videos are b.... bfff... where are that cinematic bike movies ? One of the reasons why i started and still do watching this great guy ... Sad...

[@jayobannon5359]

As a 70 year old 'dude' I hope you pay for what you did to that Larry

[@TheVCAdventures]

Larry started it 😝

[@jayobannon5359]

Oh, I get it, being shamed by an old guy going up the road ahead of you. I did notice a derailleur issue a while later, payback in my book. I will say, this series has been the best of yours I have watched since the number 1 impossible route.@@TheVCAdventures

[@joekawasaki]

This has been a fun trip to watch so far but unless you felt like climbing, riding up to Calabasas was adding unnecessary hours & miles to the trip. Pch would have been faster & nicer!

[@TheVCAdventures]

JB said we had to make a group ride that actually never happened. So we did have to go out of our way a bit.

[@joekawasaki]

@@TheVCAdventures that makes more sense!

[@itsok2023]

Tyler, love your creativity and your content. You were meant to do it. But am i the only one on the internet who thinks you need another impossible rider? Maybe one with a personality and likability. No offense to him,, but just me .02

[@osobazjebanana]

Dont get those wide angle lenses/shots, look so unnatural and weir. but ofc overall amazing job.

[@mickelkobeck7376]

Okay, so what did Phil actually say to or about you VC?

[@ChrisP978]

Phil called some riders out (not by name, he was fairly diplomatic) for doing low end fly away races when they could have found something similar closer to home. Obviously Phil does the occasional fly away race like Mt Washington, basically he was just saying save it for the big ones. Tyler later admitted it was a bad idea, so I think they're over it (mostly).

[@mickelkobeck7376]

@@ChrisP978 Why does Phil think anyone should care about his opinion about such things...do the races you want to do. LOL

[@ChrisP978]

@@mickelkobeck7376 Generally speaking Phil doesn't really care. He was making a point of don't pretend to be green if you're flying across the country to do a race with 50 people.

[@theflightsimulationexperie6894]

Dude serious question here. How on planet earth do you have a family, own a business and do all these adventure rides and put out videos. Seriously, how is that possible?

[@TheVCAdventures]

Well, we did this back in April and I’m just now posting it 😂 I had to videos on hold most of the year to manage it all. But now back to videos for a bit.

[@jjcabello1]

What’s up with Jeremiah? Seems so over it.

[@bjmaston]

I'm sorry but JB has an absolutely infuriating "personality". Whimsical and careless at serious/critical moments, flat affect at all other times. Wow. Weirdly, however, this personality intrigue made the series.

[@combatLaCarie]

"Skitchen Trucks" is something to be embarrassed by not something to brag about in a title of a video. Thumbs down.
