Vanlife Adventure: Maybe Bill was right about suffering...

[@hwork50]

I think Tricia is the hero. Driving the truck and airstream by herself, wow! Hero!

[@annek1226]

Trish just proved that we women can do anything we set our mind to! Been there, done that! Like Trish, loving it!

[@SoloHiker1]

Really...because she drove something "he" has been driving around in for years. Why do people set the bar so low for women? 🤦‍♂️

[@TimMillernapavalleyfilmworks]

For those who don’t cycle, this was an incredible feat. Well done, you are ambassadors to Americana and much needed family values. God bless ✝️

[@ThePeaPodFamily]

I could not agree more. When I was an avid cycler (I should really get back on it) this seemed out of my reach. Seeing this is inspiring me to get back on it.

[@jimmcknight3021]

For those that doubt the significance of the feat, do a day ride of 60 to 100 miles. Once you finish the ride, then multiply that by their days on the bike.

[@kristinspirek7616]

It is incredibly inspiring!

[@jackiejoe8930]

This was an amazing series with normal people achieving a crazy goal with the support of their friends. I can't wait to see more stuff like this.

[@heidim5110]

Wow, that series was so much fun to watch - a "KYD instant classic". Thanks for all your hard work putting together these videos. The camera work was amazing!

[@Rochesterhome]

For all the men who don't appreciate their women and all the women who don't appreciate their men, this entire trip was carried on the backs of both wives while the guys rode. It takes two to make a family. Congratulations to you all. You inspire me.

[@gatorbyte5254]

Mark, your and Caleb’s storytelling has made it more than abundantly clear that he gets his humor and story making abilities from you.

[@warrickswanderworks]

I can’t get over how great this series of videos is. I binged them tonight and was riveted. This is such great filmmaking!

[@danphillips3589]

Suffering is what makes it an adventure rather than just a bike ride. Suffering is what makes it memorable. Suffering is what makes it an accomplishment. Suffering Together builds bonds stronger than family (ask any veteran).

[@caroleingram5278]

Congratulations to the men!! Congratulations to the ladies!!!

[@TheHungryCubanAdventures]

What an incredible family memory you guys just made. God bless

[@swampsofhome]

Very rarely do I say the word "awesome", but the police escort was AWESOME! Southern hospitality for sure.

[@garryhammond3117]

Thanks guys! - I feel honored to be a small part of this epic journey - Even as a silent bystander! It was both inspirational and uplifting! See you back in Arizona. Merry Christmas! - Cheers!

[@Ren_O_72]

KYD, thank you for taking us on yet again another journey. The journey is sometimes better than the destination. It is so great that you got experience this with Caleb. Great job! Great fight! And as Caleb said, “best SAG team EVER”!!!

[@alanpowell9459]

Outstanding series, editing, storytelling. 5 stars.

[@cooperdog8371]

I think Bill found his “suffering” in episode 2. Loved the series.-John

[@barbarapadgett5538]

The police escort was super fantastic! They probably are following KYD! Loved this series!

The End of the Road .....so COOL...Following this Bike Trip .

[@BToddL]

It isn't an adventure without some adversity. Thank you for another great series.

[@ladikmk]

You all deserve kudos for a monumental journey that was just exceptionally done - the guys who rode such an incredibly long distance safely, and the superbly talented ladies who kept their riders fed, watered, and supported. Watching your two families enjoy this ride and just have rip-roaring fun together was just the best. Thanks so much for sharing it with us. Wishing you all the best of holidays - Merry Christmas!

[@taztaffie]

Well done, every one of you! Thank you for sharing and entertaining.

[@theresageorge5796]

I. Loved. This. Series. You guys make it real for all of us. This was very emotional and inspirational!!!!!! I have 4 grown kids - we've camped and homeschooled and traveled with a fifth wheel all over, and I WISH we had done this amazing journey. INSPIRATIONAL.

[@cheersdarlin916]

All of you are ROCKSTARS!! What an awesome mini series. Thanks for sharing.

[@walkerhound4055]

As an avid cyclist, my community of cycling friends invited me on their week long 2022 bike bike camping trip around Mt Hood OR, but I took a pass because I didn't want to interrupt my RVing up the OR and WA coast. Midway through watching this series, I shared with them the adventure cycling url and committed to their 2023 ride. this series has been extremely motivational! thank you for producing/sharing it!!

[@hannathompson7998]

Nice! Best of luck!! Gorgeous area

I can't even tell you how in awe I am of your accomplishment!! Tears!! at your drive and determination.

Lisa & I are really enjoying these videos! Love the production quality. Lisa is inspired by Trishes cooking. Lisa is already an awesome cook, but Trish has inspired her to up her game even more. She’s looking forward to the cookbook. Enjoying episode 3 of the bike ride as i write this

[@traciscott23]

Thanks for sharing this ride with all of us. I’m glad you enjoyed your time in our Sweet Home Alabama!

[@tchrof6th]

It was amazing! Watching you and following the ups and downs. It’s definitely a once in a lifetime experience. What is even more amazing is that Caleb has done much in his life before has even reached college. The experiences for him will last beyond your life. 😊

[@jeffc6268]

Thank you for taking us along on your great adventure. I’m sad to see it come to a end.

[@Elpapijun]

This was one of one of the best videos! I think everyone was a Hero in this. The guys for taking the adventure of over 1300 miles, and not only completing it, but without any major issues!👌... The ladies, huge part, in being there in every stop, having lunches, etc, support, that was great! Bravo 👏.... Keep up the great videos..

[@keving4081]

Your best series ever, thank you. It brought back this memory. Before moving to Vt. in 1976. I convinced my little sister to ride from Old Bridge N.J. to Long beach island N.J. (50mi.). We were not bikers and had lousy bikes. While crossing the causeway I looked back and saw her fall into the road (no shoulder). Oh, Christ! She remounted really fast.

[@karenoster8291]

Verrry Fun Adventures for we to Enjoy with a you ALL! Congratulations! 🥂🍾 🎉

[@rhousto1]

Quite the adventure...loved following along. All five of you enjoyed the experience.

[@lindabirkes-lance8915]

This was such a fun series to watch. I’m fairly confident that most of us followers do not aspire to do the same thing. However I feel a real sense of accomplishment for the three of you biking that whole trip. Great job for the men and the women!!!

[@TravelingonAdventures]

I really needed this episode. Glad to see the incredible journey being completed. But I loved when Mark said "Suffering is better as a memory"! That is so true and I can't wait until the suffering we re currently going through is a memory.

[@bartroberts5953]

This series was simply fantastic! So so good! Please please do more cycling series!!

Would love to hear how each of you processed this entire challenge and how it forged you into different aspects. Thanks again to all of you.

You all were amazing! Loved the whole series. I have ridden road bikes enough to appreciate what you have accomplished. Not fully, but enough. Your SAG support was phenomenol! Glad you all went to church throughout your journey, lol. And as we know, the journey is (sometimes?) better than the destination! Great memories! Congratulations to each of you including Charlie!

Congratulations on your adventure. We did something similar this summer. Our son hiked the Continetial Divide to earning his Triple Crown by completing the entire Applachain in 2018, Pacific Crest in 2021 and now 2022 the CDT. We were able to shadow along this year and stayed within an hour or so of him. He was able to come in about once a week and rest a day, and wash. It was a fantastic experience for us. We met many great hikers along the way. April 21 to mid Sept. 3,000 miles.

[@janmoline]

So impressive. What an adventure!! Great job y'all!! I love people's reactions when women back up a trailer or tow one at all!! I've been towing, one thing or another, since the 1980s but folks only see an elderly lady. Funny to watch folks stop, watch, point, and come by to say wow!

I am so impressed. I have ridden from SF to LA twice (~764 miles) and loved every mile of it. I know the excitement of those last 10 miles and the pride in the accomplishment. Well done to all. Let's not forget the support and gear crew, you cannot do this without them.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! A job well done. and I know I could never do this. You put out the most incredible videos. I am glad to have met you and Tricia at Love's.

Probably your best set of videos I can remember. Great editing and on the edge of my seat waiting to see the next experience. Lots of mini plots too. Hope you all survived! Your St Pete Bungalow is going to be precious. Just survive the hurricanes if/when they occur. St Pete is probably one of the best new destination areas that is still affordable. A Great way to spend a Sunday evening.🚵

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Thank you!

[@canica99]

very nice series...I also pick up your RAGBRAI 2023 which I also did but I did not stayed on a rv but instead camped on that horrendous heat and I live in Tampa, Fl. Loved watching everyone getting alone on this journey and you three really did a lot of miles very fast, which I could not do or want to. I rode across country from Vancouver WA to Portland Maine and down to NYC to catch the train back to Tampa and it took me a lot longer and I would have loved to run into folks like you out there seeing this amazing world. You are all right regarding how the journey is so much important than the destination...I can remember doing a night ride out of Clermont, Wyoming after stoping at a small bar and looking for a coke and after talking to the owner for about an hour who was cleaning his 9mm Glock , he offered me a campsite but I turned him down because I wanted to get to Devil's Tower and after about 2 hours of riding and going up a pass, I stopped to look at the incredible Milky Way and his soon pull over with two cokes and a pizza. Those are the moments that I keep with me and gets me through now that I am back chasing the dollar so I can go out and have another adventure. So nice to see you doing this with family and friends and I am certain it is great to share to memories with us the audience and filming is so much work as to why I do not do it. Anyway, glad for the series and congratulations in such adventure and Charlie is awesome. Cheers.
