I raced the TDR in 2017 and was blessed to ride with those wild horses. They ran up to me from afar, I thought it was a herd of elk till they got closer. I had no idea they existed or what was going to happen. They ran along side of me for about 300 yards, circled around then ran off. It was one of the most beautiful moments I ever experienced in my life! Keep up the great work and stay original.

Excellent look at the "behind the scenes" Ryan. Can't wait to see the series. Can't tell you how many cyclists I've turned on to your channel...from newbies to hardcore full suspension folks. The bike shop is an excellent catalyst for this...especially for beginners who are looking for inspiration. Keep up the good work! Now...if we only had some reasonably priced bikes to sell em. We've been out since the beginning of June (bikes under $1500 US). Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is, the small mom and pop shops are bringing up the rears when it comes to restocking. Specialized is telling us it's gonna be Feb. for 21 models. It is what it is though and our repair side of the business is booked solid. Stay true to your calling Duzer. It's an art to creatively make the details interesting...and I think you've figured it out.

Too bad we couldn't have repurposed those piles of bikeshare bikes piling up by the thousands here and abroad. They would have come in handy about now, during a global viral catastrophe. Can you imagine how many you could have moved out the door? Instead, perfectly good bikes were dumped into landfills. (No, they were NOT recycled!) When bikes become a major carbon footprint problem, you know society has lost its marbles! We should have a rule that techies ARE PROHIBITED from trying any business venture that involves bikes, or any other "green" idea. (Wait, too late!) Really. What a stain on humanity.

As you know I’m a huge fan and Patreon supporter and I would like to share with you and your subs something personal. Once I saw your video about stopping drinking, I stopped! I have lots of videos and pics of my rides that I sometimes have a beer at the top of the mountain. It doesn’t make sense for me to destroy my health with alcohol, especially when I’m very strict on myself. I have 2 liters of water and and a cold pressed vegetable drink Every Morning! That is followed by steel cut oatmeal with flax, hemp and almonds or walnuts with a protein almond milk mix poured on top. I log about 4-6 rides a week and do weights 3x a week. Sorry TMI, anyway I just wanted to thank you for your inspirational videos, you’re making an impact on many peoples lives I’m sure.

Ryan, thank you for putting this video about your editing process together - it is great to see your process. Back in 2015 I tried on a much more limited scope to put some mountain biking videos together. I was using a single early GoPro, with a chest mount, very limited stabilization and my intent was just to share my riding experience with my immediate friends. So, no music, no drone shots, no ride-bys, just first person shots. And that still was a ton of work to put together. What you do is really amazing, your videos are such an inspiration! I am happy to be able to join your Patreon group. I just finished binging on both the Baja series - you are scaring the crap out of my wife, I think she is afraid I am going to run off and disappear into the Mexican desert! :-) Thanks again!

My husband watched and enjoyed this video as well. We just did a 1st time 3 day bike packing tour on the Downeast Sunrise Trail in Maine that Steve edited and uploaded to his channel yesterday. We did the "no flatties" shout out on our 2nd day start in Machies and mentioned your name.
