Unicycling Across Australia Ep.1 // A 3000 Mile Cycling Journey

[@potsy86]

Loving that KZbin's algorithm has just decided that everyone needs to see the again after 2 years :D

[@fosheimdet]

And how do you know that?

[@harrisonstarr7993]

Can't believe 2017 was 2 years ago now nearly 3

[@MarcDufresneosorusrex]

@@harrisonstarr7993 first time here; so many gorgeous footage and friendly people ..

[@bonk7175]

Three!

[@benfield9235]

Make that 4

[@tigergreg8]

The amount of time he has to take to set up a camera, ride, then retrieve takes it has to be a bit exhausting at times. i'm sure for him it's worth it because it's like a video diary.

[@MagDrag123]

Rides through the USA, used the metric system in title. Rides through Australia, used the imperial system.

[@noonehere4332]

Gotta confuse the people

[@goosequillian]

Just for the record, whereas Fahrenheit is used solely in the USA, Celsius is used in the rest of the world. Therefore, virtually nobody cares about Fahrenheit.

[@droneddd]

Damn, you are on youtube for so much time, and only 7k subscribed... I mean alot of youtubers get more, just filming themselves in their bedroom... That's a shame because what you do is so unique, you deserve to be seen by way more people, I hope that time will come soon. Seriously, going alone around the world with only one wheel, that's probably one of the craziest projects Ive ever seen! Lots of cheers from Belgium!

[@rashrash4717]

Dr.One this is what i too feel

[@SamCyanide]

well in 2 years he has about 7x that :D

[@1.4142]

so underrated. Maybe it's the algorithm.

[@caseygoodkofsky2932]

It’s probably because he finally did the U.S

[@seafire820]

Wow that plane leaving the airport shot was next level. Had to take another plane just to get the camera back

[@bjh903]

This just came up in my feed, and it is a crime that this doesn’t have more views! I love your personality mate, quality human being 🙌🏻

[@rvhome513]

I really enjoy watching your movies. You have great storytelling & editing skills.

[@xxwookey]

He's had quite a lot of practice, after two years of this :-) But you're right, it's very good indeed, and must involve a lot of faffing about setting up long shots and going back for the camera and remembering to have it out when things are happening.

[@truth-Hurts375]

I crossed the Nullarbor a few years ago when I was cycling around Australia...remember it like it was yesterday...on a cool day the max was 43degrees.For those who wonder..Australia is a wonderfull country to cycle...if you can sort out your water problem.People will always ask you...Have you got enough water...then ask about food....keep going mate !!

[@noproblem2big337]

Welcome to Australia Ed, I'll keep an eye out for you when you're passing through Melbourne, I enjoy watching your travel adventures, but I laughed when your complaining about the cold weather July here is the middle of winter :) ...and one bit of advice, never camp underneath gum trees they tend to drop large limbs without warning, enjoy the land of plenty!!

[@CristiNeagu]

Unexpected things to find in a cemetery's public toilet: a tent.

[@Engineer9736]

Or a unicycle

[@KandiKlover]

@@Engineer9736 Still one of the more tame things compared to what you normally get surprised with in those so no one would care.

[@giodc8599]

Not into unicycles or anything but you have massive balls to perform this kind of thing and keep us updated throughout. Definitely keen to help your cause, mate!

[@JoonaBruh]

This is incredibly interesting. Reminds me of that bloke who walked across a country in a straight line.

[@eero7507]

jOwOona Yeah we unite again through the weird youtube algorithm

[@BilboBaggins236]

Oh that guy that walked across Wales?

[@JoonaBruh]

@@BilboBaggins236 yeah

[@JoonaBruh]

@James Weatherly yeah that one

[@maximumlvl5001]

Oh shit giowizard that guy was crazy got to love KZbin algorithm sometimes

[@CruiserBrah]

Hahaa, the dude riding across OZ unsupported a unicycle calls the bloke riding on a normal bike fully supported crazy....... gold!

[@Finallybianca]

Fat Guts1971 go push 300 km in a day vs eds 80 km I am gutted @ 130k on a gravel bike.

[@eero7507]

Fat Guts1971 Great name

[@KandiKlover]

@@Finallybianca Yeah but those are just crappy remarketed cyclocross bikes for fad chasers. Get a real touring bike and you'll be fine.

[@CarFreeSegnitz]

300 km a day is brutal. It would take a strong cyclist 12 hours on the saddle to pull that. Glad he had RV support.

[@james3003]

These videos of yours I can only describe as the true definition of life. Seeing the world as it was intended unfiltered with human acts of kindness around every corner. You're a perfect example of how the media negatively portrays the world, but kindness never seems to be to far from just saying hello. Thanks for the inspiration to start my own journey.

[@CarlosSuarez-ro4qs]

Thanks and you keep me rollin. Even though I don't ride unicycle. I do ride a penny farthing. More than I used to I'm retired now 65 I have the time thank God

[@Jafmanz]

amazing to watch you grow in strength and character over this series. I have travelled and I know in years to come you will remember the places well enough but most of all the faces and the warmth of humanity in all its glorious diversity. People make adventures! still to this day sat on the west cost of scotland I sometime smell the indian oceans currents come across in august and I smell the hussle and bustle of india. smell is the most evocative sense.. stay safe and enjoy!

[@lnnART]

just wow man! sleeping on the floor in a toilet at a cemetery is just something. you're a great gem on youtube, too bad i missed you when you were in china

[@hl3754]

hey ed, could you do a run down of your technical/electronic equipment? what phone do you use and how do you use it? what kind of plan do you run for your phone? do you use a gps-device with maps on it for planning your route or your phone? how, where and when do you connect to the Internet? how do you charge your devices? thanks anyways for the amazing videos of your incredible journey!

[@jannatulislam.official]

you got my mind Question. I need to know how did he doing this.

[@mcc5026]

14:19 - I literally have a photo next to me on my desk at the place he describes. I went there as an European and it was mad. We had such strong winds blowing south, never experienced before and it scared us to death as we were camping next to the big cliffs over there.

[@nobodxy]

@ 15:39 he has seen the glory that is the Spanngurt 😂

[@davidarcher315]

glad to see your OK and taking me along another adventurous ride in the outback great views as always and I love your videos their awesome. You should get your own travel TV show going all over the world. Take care man and be safe. David.

[@feelinghealingfrequences7179]

YES I second getting a travel TV deal your voice and smile are wonderful

[@Rockmaster867]

Like the two germans a few month ago said, Spanngurt (bungy cord) is the most important thing to have!

[@airmagic2199]

Big Ups to the folks who welcomed you into their home! A fantastic adventure!!!

[@joshuajohnson4074]

Ed you are a lot of inspiration for me! Seeing your videos made me want to get my first Uni and learn how to ride it. I just got it 4 days ago and Im getting off the wall now! Love the videos across the world and hope to see more inspiration coming from you.

[@Vaforadeicoioni]

it makes me happy that you're so positive. coupled with excellent filming and editing, your channel makes for excellent viewing! well done Ed

[@Rausgefahren]

All the best for Australia! Greetings from Kyrgyzstan! :)

[@Jesse-B]

Same to you mate, and give my regards to Аяна Касымова, she brought my attention to Kyrgyzstan in the first place. Her voice is like an angel.

[@GeoDavit]

Heyyy, we met today, at the CCN ride! Always glad to see people as positive as you and your friend.

[@tobortine]

It's the beginning of a new adventure. I'm so glad I discovered your channel you're an absolute inspiration.

[@HarryGunn9]

Ed your Positivity and humour through out your videos is incredible! Very Inspiring, Thanks!

[@wolfclaw3366]

i live in Canada and i got to tell you Ed seeing giant houses being hauled down the highway isn't to strange over here simply because it's sometimes cheaper to take a already built house and haul it a couple hundred klicks then it is to build a new house in some rural area

[@jaekamei]

It fills me with joy to see you had enjoyed unicycling here in Australia.

[@Gantzz321]

after just finding the channel yesterday and now having watched every video, I am glad I don't ride uni-cycle. I have noticed one thing that stands out, and that is follower #'s an the amount of promoting being done on the trip for the charity. It would seem to me that having someone at home make phone calls ahead of him, calling local media, making arrangements for him to stop at local schools, cause kids would love this stuff. All this would greatly increase viewership an support so fast. Also I would have been collecting signatures, names addresses, phone #'s, emails of everyone he meets on his journey, especially those that rode with him, helped in out, anything like that. Cause when this journey is over it will be nice to be able to reach out to some of them again.

[@aussiekartman]

Welcome to Aus Ed. Safe travels and I'll look out for you if you cross Victoria (I drive a truck).

[@alliegold3492]

This is the first video of yours that has been recommenced to me and I can't wait to watch the rest :)

[@nedgetchell2004]

Ed, just connected to your channel through your GCN interview, just before you finished your epic journey. Glad to have discovered your adventure. Like your content very much! Great editing. Keep on keeping on!

[@ChristophMittendorf]

4 years late / but this is amazing content creation. Awesome to watch!

[@sesquipedalianstan]

There's a lot to know about Australia man. The thing I think is really important for you to know is the drivers are inconsiderate. I'm from Melbourne so just wait til you get into the city ;)

[@jeremyharris7811]

You're cycling at the best time of year for that part of the country.

[@norvalent2750]

You are an inspiration!

[@daviedlopulalan9882]

You are doing awesome Ed. And nice effort on taking videos all by yourself.

love these videos but who keeps giving him a thumbs down WHY!!!!! Ed's an amazing guy a genuinely nice person

[@gavinknight1986]

Why is this not on Netflix? Great storytelling Ed!

[@wnderer4365]

the people you meet along the paths are the best...

[@MaxMakerChannel]

You do great videos! Your channel popped up yesterday and I watched half of them so far. You must be the only guy in the world who's reaction to snow is laughter. Very enjoyably to watch. There is just one thing. Please get rid of those horrible glasses! Make you look 20 years older.

[@krollpeter]

I guess they are chosen from practical considerations not as a fashion statement.

[@manfredbader3528]

Hi Ed! Congrats, you`re doing an incredible "job"! I`m an unicyclist by myself and I was also riding/criscrossing Australia on a Mountainbike with an Bob-Trailer......so I definately know what you are going through! My hat down to the ground and all the very best for you!

Ed look after your skin once it gets hot if you can -I cycled a lot in Australia and now have a lot of skin damage on my forearms and backs of my hands. A lightweight long sleeve top, or even just some fingerless gloves could make a big difference. Maybe zinc on your cheeks/nose, Aussie cricket style. Good luck with your travels! we can put you up in Christchurch if you tour New Zealand!
