Absolutely fantastic series of films, it’s sad that we in Europe and the West look on the people of these areas with distain, they may not have an existence based on monetarily and materialistic things, what the have in spades is priceless, they have kindness and as you have witnessed you can’t put a value on this, well done both of you.......inspirational....thoughts from Wales 🏴🏴🏴🏴
one of the greatest films. thank you guys
Beautiful mountains and beautiful people and a delicious watermelon 🍉...
Cheers from NYC
The juiciest watermelon I’ve ever had!
I have to give you both a lot of recognition since you endure a lot in the name of international cycling....
Cheers from NYC
One of the best bikepacking series here on TH-cam! Very inspiring, incredible drone shots, amazing photos! I think such a trip can also be a challenge for a relationship but it looks so nice and easy with you both. Looking forward to see more content from you both.
New content coming in April!
Tristan and B, what a GREAT video series. It brings HOPE to a world in chaos by showing the generosity of people. It proves that we can all live in harmony and peace. I share your videos with everyone. Both of you are ambassadors of bicycling and harmony. Thank you so much for sharing your journey. THANK YOU!
Tristan, I’m impressed and completely amazed about your work, your passion and your talent. It’s the best content I ever found about bicycle touring. I’m just about to start the Pamir and although I follow you and Belen for a while, only now I could watch everything you did! And it’s the perfect timing! Congrats dude! I hope I can meet you guy on the road some day! Thanks for the inspiration!
That means a lot to read! Thank you, and enjoy the Pamir to the fullest!
Going to miss your vids Tristan and Belle... but I know your America trip is going well , so looking forward to them vids, been awesome watching all your journeys through Asia.. well done guys 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
And don't forget about the Canary Islands! Those are coming soon.
@@tristanbogaard awesome 😉👍
Thank You for this excellent journey through Southeast Asia. I have enjoyed all 10 episodes several times. The truth is, the purpose of a bicycle journey is not he pursuit of perfection, it is the pursuit of pursuit. That is why I ride.
Wow great video Tristan. I really enjoy the whole series. love your photography, explanation towards the small details of the journey. These peoples are so kind, innocent and lovely ❤️
And at 12:00 I heard the Nokia Airy ringtone. Damn man I grew up listening this ringtone.
I followed your journey guys, it was amazing how you managed details of feelings, showing how the people treated, offering supplies, attention, being very sympathetic, from both sides , you all and them. Beautiful landscapes, etc. See you next time, we're anxious, keep cycling. Buddies
Thanks for your continued support, José!
Hey Tristan, I finished watching this series the other night - the perfect daily unwind between coronavirus TV news and a good night's sleep!!! It was real sad to finish. Amazing adventure, stunning drone footage (so worth carrying that), great stills & captions, cultural/ community insights, and beautifully put together. Thanks! And hope you're both coping with confinement - the total opposite of all you've shared :(
Your words mean a lot to me right now! Absolutely, we can’t wait to get back on the bicycle. Wilderness and foreign countries are far away from us, and we probably won’t have the pleasure of cycling in those places anytime soon. But, there’s always a place to cycle in closer to home! So soon I’ll be uploading again :)
Great pictures, great music, great video, great inspiration. Thanks for sharing this. I really enjoyed Cyling Central Asia.
Amazing series, I loved it!!!! The pups are so 😍 you both are very inspiring, thank you!!!
Thanks for sharing these lessons, Tristan. Best of luck on your next adventure!
Great ending to a beautiful adventure with amazing people. I surely enjoyed every minute. Let us unite to keep this world as stunning as it is
One love dude :)
Wat een moois slot van een prachtige reis door een van de mooiste ongerepte natuurregio’s van Centraal Azie. Toch blijven er nog zoveel vragen over, maar dat is juist hetgeen dat mij overtuigd om dit te gaan doen. En uit te gaan zoeken of dit nog mogelijk is voor een avontuurlijke 43 jarige. Dankjewel voor een prachtige reis die ik met jullie mocht “meefietsen”.
Dankjewel voor deze mooie woorden, Dennis! Dat maakt het werk aan de serie het helemaal waard :)
Thank you for these videos and sharing your awesome journey with us. Beautiful places, amazing people, and two travelers with a really big heart. I have also an adopted dog, he is 10 years old now. I’ve just bought my first gravel bike (a Sequoia), and I hope one day I can go to similar adventures like you. You are truly inspiring people. Waiting for the videos of your next journey. Keep riding! Love from Hungary.
It all starts with one small step to the outside world! We wish you best of tailwinds.
Central Asian people are so kind and they love to help visitors.
Absolutely fantastic series. Your camera work is inspiring. One day, I may take s trip like this myself. Thankyou
That was an excellent series! I'm sad it had to end. I made the mistake of watching a Vice news segment about how, the kyrgz men, kidnap their wives. It kinda took the shine off your wonderfully, wanderlust inspiring series. Still, I'm heading to do a portion next year! Mostly due to your efforts in presenting it.
Totally with you on that, David. Like all countries (much like in Europe, America and other 'first world' places) there are things to improve. Where we allow mass slaughter of sentient beings that have done nothing but give love, Kyrgyz men (and the families) allow the kidnapping of brides. Some Asians burn dogs alive and some American school kids decide to shoot their class to a pulp. Those things fortunately, are just a tiny percentage of society blown up by media outlets. Once we focus on the good in people, these situations become almost invisible and as long as we work towards erasing them by acquiring our own honest practices that do not harm others, I think we're all on the right path :)
Go to Kyrgyzstan, it's beautiful out there!
Great videos! Love these very much.
I plan to go without wild camping. Are there adequate accommodation along the road?
Without wild camping you’ll have to plan your days rather carefully! But I think you could manage to find accommodation every night as long as you’re prepared to cycle large distances.
@@tristanbogaard thanks for the reply. Cheers
I really enjoyed all the vlogs about Central Asia, amazing journey you had. Can you please tell me how long it took y’all to get to Dushanbe from Khorog?
Thanks! It took us approximately a week the other way around, but depending on your route (north or south) and since you’re cycling up instead of down the mountains, I’d take at least 10 days!
Awesome 📸👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻📸🙏
Enhorabuena por vuestro viaje,y por transmitir las maravillosas sensaciones de viajar por estos espacios naturales,donde la gente todavía no está contaminada por el ruido absurdo del egoísmo de occidente.
I really like both if u... Specially ur Girl friend.. She is cool ,calm... And beautiful
Estaría bien que Belén,hiciera sus comentarios en español... Qué os parece?
i cried for the side story, if it is what I hope it isn't
How many kilometers total of your journey?
Is it in Strava or any else?
The whole Pamir Highway; 1200km. The entire Central Asia route; about 2000! We were pretty much offline the entire journey so it's not on Strava...
So that's what you cover in two months. Awesome, not to mention the elevation gain; it must be even more staggering. How we could develop such a route for our own? Is it available somewhere else? I think some people may have (slightly) different route although in the same Pamir?
Have you deleted the vlogs of your Europe cycling trip ?
Privated them! They weren't very relevant anymore since my editing style has changed a lot.
@@tristanbogaard 😢
Hello tristan! I have seen the camping place in other videos, could you please tell me the name of the town? Or the location of the campsite!! Cuál es la mejor manera de volar a osh?? Y cuál es la aerolínea que tomaste? Saludos!!
you're really complaining about the roads and people using the roads.... amazing scenery and photography, ruined by your privileged complaining.
Put yourself in a place like that, experience it by bike for weeks on end, and then tell me your honest opinion. Until then, you don’t have a clue what continuous exposure to bad roads does to your mind in such moments.
Nevertheless, I learned from my own mistakes and have since adapted my style to not interfere with opinions in the moment. Instead, we only reflect on trips after they’ve happened to make sure temporary emotions don’t disturb the production. Thanks for the feedback.
Tristan, I’m impressed and completely amazed about your work, your passion and your talent. It’s the best content I ever found about bicycle touring.
