What a joy to watch, memories do come rushing in my brain! enjoy your time and stretch it if you can, you'll enjoy longer.....;-)

Glad to hear the bike is fixed. Another great video!

Good job…you look like you’re doing well! I was going to wait till towards the end cause you still have the big hills yet to come…whether or not you like the choice of the recumbent or not!

I've been watching all your videos on Roku, so this is the first chance I've had to leave a comment. Great videos! I like your style. Like the format, good mix of cycling scenery and commentary. The singing could use work, though 😊
Keep on truckin! Looks like you two are having a blast!

Thank you for your encouragement and for following the adventure!

[@jeffneumann4872]

So what camera(s)are you using? Or is it one that gives you all those options?…selfie stick is the one we see sticking up above your Limo?

[@davidweber9065]

I use a DJI Osmo Action 4 for the handlebar-mounted vlogging camera, an Insta360 X3 for the action footage, and an iPhone 13 Pro Max for the other handheld footage.

Wow…it was one of the best video rides I’ve seen

New sub here. Have watched Day 1 & now this one. I'm probably missing an inside joke...
... but have to ask: Pyongyang? Huh? 😕
I have a lot of catching up to do.
Cheers 🍻

[@davidweber9065]

Day 47 was the first mention of Pyongyang!

@davidweber9065 Riddle me this then...
... How could any airport in the U.S. have 4 flights per day? Just curious if I'm missing sarcasm/dry humor. Thanks!

[@jeffneumann4872]

Are you done with the ride & just catching up on videos?

[@davidweber9065]

I'm still on the ride! I try to give a calendar date along with the day number early in each video recording.
