I hope you had fun in my country, Jordan. I am one of your followers, and I love touring on a bicycle. Be an inspiration to your followers.
............you can be very proud of your country, I love it, the media tells us things they don't know, just like the kindness of your people....this video is great and shows us that it's superb... ..peace be with you .....bernard of strasbourg 🙏🙏🙏
Your Country looks amazing!
Beautiful bikepacking video super 🏕️🚵♂️🚴♀️🌞❤️👍
Whenever I see a video of someone biking though the desert, I always have the same questions about water. How much water did you have to carry, and how frequently did you encounter places to refill?
Never more than 4 litres each. We could re-fill at least twice a day in Jordan.
I thought I was watching the national geographic you are the Man incredible and beautiful video good description I love it ❤
What a video, what an inspiration!! Thank you!!
Avid fan here. Stay safe always! Love your content it inspires other riders to start their own adventures!!
Anyday a Cyclingabout video comes out is a good day. Thanks for sharing your adventure!
From Denmark: Good to see you on the saddle again, taking us along on your journey.🙏
Thank you for this amazing episode.
Very interesting. Some things I never knew. You guys are great ambassadors.
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME VIDEO!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing your experience with us. Look forward to the next one.
Well done and thank you one more time.
Every pedal scene you show us, we can imagine we are traveling with you on all these beautiful places.
Wow, loved the film. Thanks for sharing. Very inspiring.
I love the videos brother! You have convinced me to build my own custom belt drive bike. The frame is a steel frame from Bombtrack called Outlaw. It will run 650b paired with a Rohloff 500/14. I normally took my Kona unit hardtail and would swap put the fork depending on trip. I have decided to finally take the plunge and go belt.
Wow what an incredible place to visit on two wheels. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for Sharing this Journey🇵🇭
Beautiful video!! Thank you for sharing this video and thank you for visiting Palestine in your journey! You are most welcome to come visit us again at any time
Thanks Serry! Cannot wait to come back one day.
Amazing journey! Thanks for sharing. Love the channel.
Great trip, thanks for sharing!!
Thank you for bringing us along on your journey! That was amazing. Your skills at capturing the history and landscape are outstanding.
Jorden, it looks so interesting for cycling about.
Thanks couple rider . marvelous n amazing place . Wonderful land just like alien land. Great -2 journey by manual power. Canyons so beautiful. Love this place. Want to visit such a beautiful place. But no money. I seen this vedio feel like I m still there wandering there. Thanks very much. What a filmise. ❤
AMAZING! immediately going on the spreadsheet of rides to do.
Alee this is a real pearler of a video, mate it easy to see why you rave about the scenery.👍👍. I see you have a kick stand on your Koga, good lad👍👍. Saves the paint work and keeps sand out of your paniers, but your mate doesn't have one, naughty girl why?? A lightweight idea that works well to stop your kick stand disappearing in the sand (and mud). Cut a piece of ply or 10mm custom wood 150mm square, Araldite (or bolt) a plastic water bottle top in the centre. Pop this under your kick stand in loose sand and your bike won't fall over. Being light I keep mine under a strap on my rear rack - convenient. How would touring on a 20" folding bike with 50mm wide tyres and an 11 speed Shimano Alfine hub and Gates drive with seat suspension go for touring in Jordan. Works quite well on Cambodia's dirt roads. Keep up the great work on these videos mate. I'll donate as soon as I'm clear of these current stroke probs I have.
Laura's kickstand broke pretty much the day we started filming. She got a new one straight away, but she was so sad while it was no longer there. It's impossible to go back...
Such a unique and beautiful landscape framed in such an inviting style in terms of music, calming voice, and positive energy. Thank you both!
I love these videos so much! So jealous!!!
Absolutely incredible!!! I'm retired and ready would like to bike tour in the middle east. You folks really lit a fire for me to GO.
So stunning! What a great video!
Thank you so much for sharing 👏👏👏
Amazing content as always 🤘❤️🤘
I like how you describe the hills as cakes. When I am hungry, many objects look like food to me, and it is amusing, like seeing shapes in the clouds.
Thanks for sharing an awesome trip! I live in Arizona and love the desert landscape, but there are many people who find it ugly...
As always, the most beautiful, enjoyable and informative travel videos to find (for free!) on the internet ❤
Stunning!😀
Beautiful video! I loved the music! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
What an amazing adventure! Neat perspective of Jordan. Must try to visit one day
Thanks for uploading gpx. I really appreciate it.
No problem! People always like to see where everything was filmed. 😎
You've brought back such happy memories of last autumn when I was in Jordan, albeit touring with a coach party.
Really looking forward to your further adventures in the Middle East!
Another amazing video. This area looks so spectacular. Thank you for sharing it with us
how is that possible to comment 7 days ago when the video is out for 2 hours? :O
My videos are available one week early on Patreon.
Good stuff, thx. Yr vids kind of special, so warm, positive, informative, real, very entertaining! All the best and thx again
thank you. beautiful desert and people.
as a gringo, I realize how pleasing, and engaging a foreign voice / accent is in a video series.
Amazing that you two are able ride such a long distance on an unpaved hilly path on a bike without an electric assist motor.
Awesome as usual! Warms me up while waiting for the season to start.
Thanks guys, I needed that, incredible scenery on an epic route
Beautifully filmed. Many thanks!
Thank you for this amazing footage guys!
Thank you another great video. Its certainly got me thinking about riding it.
As usual, your videos were very interesting and informative to watch. My wifey and I(seniors), sat down and watched this one about Jordan and it was good. We are very happy that you have someone to ride and share your day to day experiences as well. Keep up the great work.!
stunning scenery, thank you!
Juste à amazing video WOW!! This is right in our top 3 to do list. Thank you so much for sharing.
Incredible video. Even though this is a bike channel, this video is better then most of the travel vlogs videos about Jordon!
Jordan amazing country for cycling! Did trip one year ago there!
Super trip. Was in Jordan for a week hiking last October, its on my short list to go back and cycle there. Thanks for the GPX file link!
This trail is definitley now on my list, Thanks for sharing your adventure.
Wow, wish I could ride there!
So glad you’re back on the road again! I was thinking of doing a non-biking trip, and Jordan was one of the overland walks I was considering! It seems very doable!
Thank you for sharing
Did this journey by tour bus recently 😔. So wish I could have done it by bike, you’ve experienced so much more. Thank you.
Wow amazing trip. Love to do that some day👍👍
Amazing video, the best
I found that when approaching the territory of an aggressive dog that is "apparently" confined behind a fence watch for this tell: If, instead of pacing you along the length of the fence, the dog races ahead and along the fence line, there's a very good chance the dog is heading to an exit ahead 😬 so check ahead and be prepared🙂
intresting route :) nice one to make a loop with the Israel Trail one for the bucket list :)
Fabulous! So well filmed! Beautiful and informative. We so enjoyed watching your film. We are tandem cycle veterans (experienced AND old 😅) and just now I am crocked up in bed, recovering from hysterectomy and planning our next trip… Jordan seems so stunning! The only thing is we just couldn’t manage most of the off track bits on our tandem. How much could we do on paved roads? Wishing you continuing beautiful travels xxx
Thanks! The entire King's Highway route is paved and will take you to many amazing sights.
Another incredible video. Jordan has been on my bucket list and after your video it has moved up the list. I would definitely consider using my fat tire for that ride. Thanks for the great video and I look forward to your videos of Egypt, Israel, and Saudi Arabia.
Amazing stuff man
Thanks a lot 💕🇲🇦👍
This is Inspiration for a huge Tourism opportunity. Hope to do this one day.
Amazing video.
I really love your videos. One thing i would find very cool, is if you did a video where you go more in debth on the kindernay gearboxes. Dont know if it would be necessary but they are a cool product i think.
Great video! The scenery is definitely not my cup of tea.😂
wow wow wow, envy... 😬
I like the violin music.
Great Video as always. Planning to visit Europe? There is great cycle trail in Poland called Vistula1200 - 1200 km along Vistula river.
Such a shame its not in 4K, it would look amazing on the TV
Incredible film! It is always nice to see something on a bicycle. I have one doubt, how do you ensure the security of your bike and stuff in such trips as well as in places like the heritage sites?
We usually leave our bikes at hotels, restaurants or with the hosts we stay with.
great music choice !
Thank you for this journey, amazing!
I follow another bikepacker on YT and she also went on the Jordan Bike Trail. She and her companion experienced something very different with the children along the road: they were being shouted at by the children, also rock throwing was a huge problem.
Guard dogs for the life stock were also very scary.
Have you experienced anything like this?
Greetings from Northern Germany, love your videos!
We only had nice children along the way. The dogs can get pretty scary, but they're not particularly aggressive if you've experienced Turkey, Iran or pretty much anywhere in Latin America!
@@Cyclingabout Thanks for your reply!
Would love to hear an update on how both bikes are handling all the different terrain and the miles especially the priority 600x
The koga is definitely built for what you're doing
I would guess no one has as many miles on the priority 600x as you all do
Great video and good to see you both touring. Just an FYI, did you both know that was camel meat?
super!
Your best video yet. What tire sizes did you use and what tire sizes would you recommend for Wadi Rum? Can it be done 700C x 47mm?
What happened to your handlebar bag Alee? Another excellent video 🎉
I broke the Ortlieb handlebar bag cable halfway through! The first one I've ever broken, but I did pull this one off an old bike, so I can only blame myself. 😅
(((((( amazing and wonderful country with these friendly people .... amazing what you two are doing and i'm going to subscribe it's worth it....thank you and greetings from strasbourg
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗....................it's true that we should take a tour of these countries and not believe what these media tell us because everything is false and lies, these people are really superb .... what more can I say.... )))))
Hello Alee! That was a beautiful film of the Jordan bike trail and your adventure. I am curious about the cost of these trips and any details related to cost. Maybe a range (low- high) or budget you estimate, and then what is spent on food, lodging, etc. Can you please offer some guidance. Always Enthusiastic, Troy :)
The cost is whatever you want it to be. $5 per day, $20 per day, $400 per day! We were probably spending $10-20 on food per day and a hotel every 4 days for $40-50. Pretty economical.
Awesome as always, what countries in Europe are you planning to visit next?
Not sure yet!
Nice video of the “best” part of the JBT. I rode it in 2019 and this brought back a lot of great memories of exploring Petra and Wadi Rum. I’m just wondering what happened to the footage of the other 3/4 of the trail Alee?!
I just enjoyed the other 3/4. Filming takes a huge amount of time and energy.
The Middle East is really a very beautiful part of the world ❤
The people are spicy though.
@@QOOQ8808 well I quite like spicy too 😁🌶️🌶️🌶️
I’ve been curious about the dead to red route which connects the two seas.
Beautiful scenery, and a wonderful trip! Where did you find the music for this video? Much of it sounded very Arabic, and it went perfectly with the landscapes.
Thanks! I licence the music from Soundstripe and just look for songs that fit the mood I want to create.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
When they offered you a full cup its a good sign. A half cup means u should be going soon.
Desert, next must be the snow riding ))) Такі гарні місця а скрізь сміття порозкидано, голівуд мабуть спочатку прибирав там шоб відзняти фільм.
Nice videos!
How much weight are your bikes rated to carry, all inclusive?
Did not know there are camels on Mars.
That's were they filmed the moon landing.. LOL
Great video, did you guys rent bikes there or did you bring your own?
A spectacular video of a fantastic trip. Any dog problems? A bikepacker Katrin Hollendung youtube’d frequent and very unpleasant dog problems, which keeps me from turning the handlebar in the direction.
Hilux ute in the middle of nowhere, reminds you of home eh 😆
So are you in Petra really early or in the summer to avoid crowds?
And Indiana Jones.👍
Can you provide some insights how you protected/ prepared your bikes for all that sand? Doesn’t it increase the wear dramatically on brakes, drivetrain etc?
We didn't do any preparation as dry sand is not hard on a bike. Wet sand though... best to avoid that if you can!
