This was more romantic then love cycles 😂 great ride guys Loved it

[@goldenstardust]

Absolutely loved this series, you two guys know how to have an adventure!

[@FrankF-vp4pt]

Very cool! Viking is a cool dude!

[@ba77leman.]

We be liking Viking Biking

[@renegaderacer777]

Ryan, thank you for showcasing the best my home state has to offer in this New Mexico series. You and your good vibes are welcome any time.

[@JRd941]

Makes me want to cross the pond for a trip.

[@renegaderacer777]

@@JRd941 - October! The best month to be in NM. Plus ABQ has the world’s largest hot air balloon festival, Balloon Fiesta.

[@d1jonesy]

Thank you Ryan for your amazing videos! You have inspired me to take my first bike packing trip at the Virginia Creeper trail. Solo at that. I ended up getting lost. Didn't make it to my campsite. Ran out of water. Ended the day in a hotel. Over 60 miles in one day lol ! Out of all the grueling moments I loved the life changing experience and would do it again. Keep making these videos as long as you can. You are helping the world. One person at a time : )

[@acdelossantos5227]

Awesome stuff Duzer! Jabba is a pretty cool guy. Looking forward to your next adventure.

[@LostandMeandering]

So cool to see the pecan plantations. Pecans are my favorite nut to eat when riding (2nd most calories after macadamia nuts). Hope you're enjoying The Tour Divide dude! watching your dot to see where you're up to each day. Keep on keeping on, brother.

[@chiparooo]

What a great series! Really enjoyed tagging along with you and Jabba on this adventure. The video and editing was superb as well! Hope you two can go on another trip sometime. Thanks for sharing!

[@philkarn0]

Just finished this last one, another fantastic series again, top stuff. Enjoy the Divide

[@iltapuhde]

That "sappy bro montage" was so cute and hilarious!❤😅 What a great adventure you had! I really enjoyed every episode, thank you for sharing this with us!👍😊

[@LindyLooo99]

We are TOTALLY struggling with our tubeless set up.... the valves clog up... we keep the tires spun, valves up we ride often and STILL have to disassemble the valves and clean them every time... frustrating

[@seattlegrrlie]

That bro montage was perfect

[@LIamaLlama554]

Here for this bromance!

[@duzer]

I’m not into beards but I’ll make an exception for Jabba 😂😂

[@nathancereska8215]

Honest review….600x or your new bike after taking in this route? Overall pick? What was the deciding factor? Love your movies watch them all

[@dukeloo]

How's the new bike working? Priority doesn't ship to Hawaii where I live now. I'm bummed. Are you ever going to design a mama ebike?

[@footprintsandtyretracks]

I think your goats head prickles are the same as we have here west of where I live. We were off to a camp site we had never visited and I got out of the car to check my map and my shoes soles were covered in them. Pesky things! If never seen them before that day. This was a fun series! I enjoyed it a lot! Now it’s 4pm here in North Queensland Australia & it’s cooled down a bit, I’m going for my arvo bike ride. Trying to get fit enough to go on my first bike packing trip. And thank you for being so positive and inspiring in your vids ☺️

[@BrettVaughnB100]

Your in my backyard .. i'm guy that talked to you when you rode the monumental loop .. you were flying the drone and I was the guy with the mule and the hound dogs ..some how your different in person lol

[@Adventures4vida]

ahh last episode already! Thanks for sharing! Hatch green chiles MMMMMM! When I rode across the USA I would jump fully clothed into bodies of water, it would keep you nice and cool for a bit in the 100 plus degree weather of the east coast and mid west. Lycra works great when its wet to cool you off. I like that big adventure shirt you have with the pee wee bike(well an ungraded version of pee wee's bike)! When I show people my bike they say that some times!

[@castle228]

What an incredible adventure, Beans! Loved every minute of it and the Viking was a great pedal buddy! Awesome stuff. Cheers!

[@duzer]

Thanks a ton!

[@LuisBecerra79]

I replayed that part where Viking only said one or two of the mantras. And I was like oh boy, let see what happens later in the video. And sure enough a crashy and a flatty 🤦🏻‍♂️. Hope he learns the lesson 🤷🏻‍♂️😁

[@LookingBackAdventures]

Great video series, Ryan! I am keeping tabs on ya on the Tour Divide and eating some bean burritos in your honor. Those goat head stickers are something else, and I hope you don't find any of those as you get to the south. NO FLATTIES!!

[@Incorruptus1]

:D It's absolute fun to see this journey. Watching along you two is serious fun lol! It's been a little different roads than usual, usually all gravel, but I remember a lot of asfalt in this one and than stretches of gravel roads, but watching some back, and yeah it is mostly gravel and a serious fun ride. So is interesting! Thank you so much for taking us along!

[@76JPH]

One does not simply bike into Mordor.

[@Cold417]

New Mexico is my favorite state to visit and this series you shot with Viking has been my favorite so far. Looks like y'all had a blast! Cheers!

[@duzer]

It’s such a beautiful state!!

[@stephenmarotti5309]

The Thomas tuck and tumble was textbook. Way to show us how it’s done. Great adventure.

[@pathalderman7051]

I love you guys! What a great adventure. I can't wait for more adventures!

[@granadosable]

Great series.

[@mariocouture1596]

Ryan, another masterful and pleasant series. It is nice to see you accompanied with someone as great as "Jaba" He seems like an awesome guy to have around especially for treks of this nature. I truly enjoyed every episode, hope to see Jaba again on another one of your adventures. 😊👏

[@jasonthompson5256]

Good job fellas 👌

[@joannenardoni17]

Ok, I don’t understand how you pack that bike. You have sleeping bags and tents, food, where does it all go? How did you find that trail?

[@aaronsmallwood5382]

Great series! Love the collaboration with the HikingViking! Where does HikingViking get those awesome riding shirts?

[@coachNewman17]

The best day riding in El Paso was when I made the switch to tubeless. Those goat-heads are EVERYWHERE. I could go 10-12 months without a flat, but then I would go the next five rides with 4 flats. Insanely frustrating.

[@harrygrimley4352]

Very nice. Not much better than good friends. Thanks for sharing this adventure with us.

[@mstong59]

Howdy Ryan...which bus line, how much, and did you have to box your bike for the bus ride back.

[@dean_ov_az]

Great series! Thanks for the laughs and awesome videos. Dot watching is ok, but not as fun. haha Good luck on the TD!

[@skater10abq]

Blue Moon Bar!! LMAO!! It didn't used to look like that. Good series of my home state! Good luck on the GD!

[@TheGlobalNobles]

Such a great video!! The editing sounds lighting great job!!!

Crashies and Flatties oh my!!!! But you 2 persevered!!! Glad Jabba was ok! What a great adventure and a new lifelong friendship Be well Ryan!

[@chrislonsberry1974]

Great series Ryan! Hope the Tour Divide race is going well for you!

[@jeffdible8171]

I know you are on the Divide, but is there ever going to be a 600 version offered in Duzer Blue for the rest of us?

[@billysbikesbrews7183]

Another Epic Adventure 🚴‍♂️😎 Jabba is a Hoot 😁 Good Luck in the Divide Challenge.. 🍀🫔

How would you define a "whammy?"

[@the.mermaid.scientist]

Mechanical failures, I'm guessing. Someone correct me if I'm wrong =)

[@lancelot6011]

14:29 in FL we called those sand spurs. They will flat you and they hurt a lot when you step on them

[@crystalbiggs2040]

Loved the bro montage 😂 Awesome series Ryan!!!

[@hibiru6868]

Congrats on finishing, I figure that's never guaranteed.

[@sagehiker]

Best travel tip to New Mexico is there is bus connections for bikes from Denver - Boulder. That there is an alt to the North-South GDMR is another. Fantastic series well done for the duo!

[@CARPETFIBBER]

This was so entertaining, and seeing NM through your eyes gives me even more appreciation to the place I call home. Thank you so much.

The Bro Montage is 🔥 🔥!!! Love you guys!!!

Hope this got you all warmed up for the big race!😊

Hated seeing the goat spikes, but loved everything else

[@Scor-ah]

What a fun trip, I am going to have to grab my sister and do it!!

[@martinschwartz7342]

Thank you, Ryan, for another wonderful series to watch. That was very enjoyable. I live vicariously through you. I am 72 years old and have mild Alzheimer's so my wife won't let me go on a bikepacking adventure on my own. If I try she will call my doctor and have me committed to a medical facility. I am very forgetful but I don't get lost so I don't agree with my wife but I can't do anything about it. Thanks to you I can still experience the joy of bikepacking through your videos.

Following you on the 'Tour Devide Tracker live'.. I really loved the connection the two of you had. Jabba is a fun guy and now I know how crazy this part of the world can be as far as weather conditions concerned.. I think you currently having a tough time with the conditions in Canada. I hope and think you will be entering the States today. I really admire you perseverence and despite the hardship you may be dealing with you will make it cause you have all that it takes to 'DO IT'..I wish you all the best xxx 💪💪!

It is amazing how plants can go traveling. Those goat heads hitched a ride on your tires. Now there will be baby goat heads all along where you traveled as they jumped off along the way. Nature is amazing.

Mr. Van Duzer, right now the US is deciding whether or not DJI should be banned from FCC airwaves, banning all future sales and potentially grounding all existing DJI drones. Obviously, you'd be affected, how would you adapt if they grounded your drone?
