WHY YOU NEED A GRAVEL BIKE

…because it will take you absolutely anywhere. Road, forest gravel paths, the beach and a mtb track, all in one ride, on one bike. This is a dream!

This video explains the “gravel bike” concept better all the discussion ever could.

[@panjiprivan7134]

That last scene of sunset on the beach is absolutely beautiful 😍.

[@VN-je7rf]

Keurig, geen social distancing, lekker in het bos rijden terwijl het niet mag en in grote groepen over het strand rijden, wat ook al niet mag. Lekker bezig!

[@sureshchinnappa2290]

Thank you so much a wonderful video. I just bought a gravel bike and you have shown me exactly why I got the bike. No cars!

[@micromike2309]

The quality on this channel is just insane!! Keep doing video exactly like this

[@Fernwee]

Appreciate it!

[@jensweddermann4652]

In my humble opinion probably the best video you‘ve ever made! The quality, the atmosphere is just insane...keep on doing this videos...and yes: i need a gravel bike!!!!

[@Fernwee]

Thanks man!

[@MustYouHaveAUsername]

Bergen aan Zee and Schoorl man, fond childhood memories. My first serious bike tour was from Schoorl to Den Helder and back in one day. I did his with my dad and sisters on crappy 3-5 speed hub gears back when I was 10, now decades ago. Mussel shell fietspaden along the coast, just a dream to drive on. I've been chasing that feeling ever since, exploring paths on my heavy ass Enduro MTB all around Europe. Currently shopping for a gravel bike or XC hardtail to go explore of the beaten path a little more comfortably (actually having some storage space).

[@strangerjoe6766]

Высокий уровень жизни. Люди выбрались отдохнули. Смотришь и даже почти не завидуешь, а как-то… Не знаю. Немножко грустно, что это недостижимо, и радостно немного за этих людей, и благодарность за то, что сняли ролик и поделились чувством полёта на дороге на быстром байке и этим закатом.

[@filisterfilm3828]

8:32. This take is insane.

[@jericoesmeli4775]

This vlog is just so good. I always see bike videos that are too gear specific but this video is just having fun with a bike!

[@thetinusnl8834]

Ordered a gravelbike yesterday, don't know why I am watching this... Beautiful footage though. Super stoked to really enter the forests next week and head to the dunes soon.

[@Fernwee]

Have fun Tinus!

[@stevegambrell8332]

I my opinion that is probably on of your best videos yet. Cycling in the Netherlands is certainly moving to the top of my list. Well done guys.

[@Fernwee]

Thanks man! 🖤

[@thelastfoxx]

Every year my family and I went from Germany to exactly this region to celebrate the end of the year together. We went to the beach, visited the smaller and bigger cities, enjoyed the nature and the dutch way of life. This year of course it was totally different. But staying at home and watching your videos together with my family reminds us of the great times we had in the Netherlands and that we can‘t wait to come back ✌️

[@Fernwee]

That's awesome to hear :) good memories are gold!

[@benno1831]

Always a big pleasure! The shot when you first made down to the beach and the one at the end w the sundowner. Great! Looking forward to the next one!

[@ColmHarling]

Production quality is off the chart, amazing videos...thanks for sharing your adventures, your love of this wonderful sport shines through!

[@gerbrandbeimers5753]

Mooiste filmpje van jou....is alles wat mooi is aan fietsen..vrienden ,natuur...bikes...

[@Da.Onus.Burger.618]

I absolutely LOVE seeing bikes in the flat olive green colors, and the flat earth colors. Flat paint is the way to go for bikes like this, in my opinion. Great drone shots, as always! Thank you, guys, for keeping everyone spirits up with your adventures. It helps us get through this pandemic, and its helping me come up with ideas on where to take my next adventure! Stay safe out there, everyone! Sending love from the US! 🇺🇸🙌🏾

[@Fernwee]

🙌 keep the adventures coming!

[@shanew634]

Focus bike looks really smart and a really enticing video with lovely cinematic footage. Joy to watch when stuck indoors. Thanks.👏👏

[@TwistyTrails]

Great video - thanks for sharing. My recent gravel outings have also taken me to the beach - a great place to ride.

[@kncpt14]

You’ve been nailing these drone shots recently. First in the snow and now these beaches. Wondering when you’ll get hired by the tourism board to show off cycling in the Netherlands!

[@Fernwee]

I like your thinking 👌

[@sorinpintilie1110]

Great idea, but I think there's not much need to show off cycling in the Netherlands, it's already known as the European capital of cycling, in any shape or form (ok, maybe a bit less of an mtb crowd). But yes, showing the route that you guys are taking is great, especially in the bikepacking/adventure videos. Keep up the good work!!

[@rmb_dev]

If you have such warm weather in the winter and stunning beach shore, definitely get the gravel bike)

[@Fernwee]

WARM!?!

[@rmb_dev]

Well @Fernwee ... It's colder in Canada))

[@bxckdoor9113]

Awesome video, makes me want to buy a gravel bike. Great slow mo shots, music and editing looks on point, super fun, whole vibe is great, keep it up!

[@MrTietoisuus]

Lots of positive energy from that video! Love it!

[@Fernwee]

Always!

[@corentinlm5467]

I was supposed to ride around Gouda today but after I saw your video I totally changed my minds in a sec, put my bike in the metro and headed to hoek van Holland to ride along the beach. That was cool. Amazing video ! You really have talent.

[@Fernwee]

Hope you had fun!

[@gauloisrefractaireenexilvo4366]

In spite of the overcast / cloudy skies, the Dutch cyclist must wear his sunnies. That's part of the fun, even if the sun isn't out. Another great ride with the Fernwee Squad.

[@mickeogh]

Wow just wow, so cinematic, and probably the best way to say get a gravel bike!

[@MrpachecoX]

‎Friendship is nice . Great team. Keep doing that .‎

[@Gravel-Idle]

great video as always. That is an amazing shot at 08:45 as you head back onto the beach just before sunset

[@IlCanaleDegliEroi]

such a great video man!

[@meesschut8948]

Great video's and a tip for new event is the gravel edition of Race around the Netherlands 2023. Myself i do the Ratn 2022 and finished the Ratn 2021.

[@garethellison01]

Super cool video guys! Some people lose their sense of adventure, some not. :)

[@stanisinjo]

This video, just like most of yours, are pure cycling art! Enjoyed every second of it!

[@TayyarePilotuOfficial]

Best KZbin channel for gravel cycling.

[@maxcorcoran5947]

Dustin is also up there!

[@AlexJKA92]

Perfect video for breakfast and then heading out fully motivated for my sunday ride

[@touchphotography]

Great filming as usual!... And OMG!!... that sunset light on the beach looked unreal 🌅👍 p.s... Don't be too hard on Mike with his English, most Brits can't even speak a 2nd language!!

[@steveh3483]

awesome videography and great camaraderie between you guys, It s a great video for showing the versatility of gravel bikes.

[@TheBradenright]

Awesome edit and nailed the music.. keep the gravel bike adventures rolling. Thanks!

[@holmston1973]

That looks bloody awesome!

[@GiorgioCoppolaCycling]

Looked like a mega ride! Bikes look fresh as well

[@juancarlosgarciagarcia2916]

Very great video, well displayed, outstanding beaches and so inspiring. I just sazam the two main songs and recently bought a gravel bike, what can i say? Feeling envy

[@TheoreticalCyclist]

Ooooohhhh! I want to try riding on the beach! That looks like a lot of fun!

[@Vangriff]

great video and great to have good friends to ride with during covid or not

[@MrOquedo]

Gravel bike on the low tide sand is just pure joy.

I bought my first gravel bike today, a cube nuroad pro, greetings !!!

Killer killer video man! You nailed this one 👌 shots, edit, sound, color simply spot on! 🔥🔥🔥

[@alainpfammatter8224]

very nice video. Beautiful scenes and great filming. Thank you

[@danielnordemann-dasilva846]

Wish we had rideable weather like this in Canada in the winter , keep up the awesome vlogs !

[@xelseartheonlyone1267]

Amazing video! I like gravel bikes but i ride on tarmac 99% of the time so i don't need it that much. Also my road bike can ride on gravel so i can use it as a gravel bike. The ultimate bike for me.

[@stanislaogerman3743]

Great shots of the sunset on the beach

[@davidski9542]

Stunning shots! 👏👏 I need a beach 🥴

[@rickadmiraal9864]

Leuk om te zien! ik heb zelf 4 jaar in Alkmaar gewoond en ging hier altijd naartoe. Leuke video's en je hebt er een abonnee bij. Ik zit zelf momenteel te kijken naar een 3T exploro voor fiets vakanties maar ook om mee te touren naar Urbex locaties hier in België maar die focus fiets ziet er ook super gaaf uit

[@Fernwee]

Voor bikepacking zou ik zeker de Focus Atlas modellen eens checken!

[@OutPushing]

Magic. Again. You always deliver. Well done mate!

Really great video, landscapes and sound - watching you guys doing sport and having fun is like small vacation in this f... shut down ... cycling in the Netherlands seems to be so beautiful, in the dunes and on the beach ... looking forward to do it maybe in summer ;-) .... 2022 :-)

May i know the song title.. Thanks

[@woutervanes3533]

Je hebt een gravel bike nodig als a) een nieuwe road fiets hebt die je graag netjes wil houden, maar wel de ruimte heeft om bredere/hogere gravelbanden te monteren en b) een oude road fiets hebt die je op zich prima zou kunnen gebruiken voor het rijden op gravel, maar die dan weer te weinig ruimte biedt om die betreffende banden/wielen te monteren omdat ze oorspronkelijk met 23 mm kwamen en er ook nog geen schijfremmen op zitten. Daar loop ik dus tegen aan.

[@Fernwee]

Tijd om die oude wegfiets in te ruilen dus ;)

[@mwilko79]

Great video as always👍 Loved the drone footage 👍

[@TheVolksbar]

Beautiful VDO and bikes guys.

[@duncanrymer7892]

Great video again, some really stunning shots

Brings back good memories of Dutch strand racing at Scheveningen a few years ago 👍

[@Fernwee]

Oh yeah!

[@AsantePE]

Ik ben nog aan het wachten op mijn canyon grail die volgende maand eindelijk binnenkomt , bestelling in oktober ... :) Time for of road chaos !!! Ik ben wel echt benieuwd hoe de fiets werkt met weg banden want ik zit in het hartje van Rotjeknor die ofroad bandjes zullen dan snel op zijn

[@Fernwee]

Niet te veel skidden dan!

So good! Are you filming most of the shots while riding with your GoPro or Sony? Looks too good to be GoPro footage.
