- My time in Galicia brought me to my limits. ''Amazing'' weather for weeks, wet feet all day long and never ending rain.
Watch me trying to make the best out of it and ending up being totally sick and exhausted. This is also Bikepacking!
Cheerio, Goodbye, Salut and Adios!

Thank you for showing us all the aspects of bike packing and not just the glamour sides :D I find It inspirational and authentic, keep on enjoying !
You're very brave i admire what you're doing it's memories that will be with you forever I'm watching all your content just not in order I'll get there loving it take care thanks for sharing 👌👍
I just love your adventures I’m also creating some content but just know you’ve truly inspired me ❤😊
You truly are something else and I love your attitude.
Inspiring videoes, Miss. And don't worry about your appearance. Trust me, bikepacking girls look better than any pin up girl, or what have you, ever did.
The best of this video was your smile at the end... It make's this world better 😊 keep going, keep harder... Enjoy your adventure!!!!
Thanks:)))
You do such a good job with all of this, esp since you are doing it on a phone … your photography, your on camera presence, your storyline, your editing … it’s all great … one room to improve … maybe show a little more when you are in towns doing stuff off the bike … expand storyline and make it both bikepacking and travel flog (just a thought) … you have found your calling …
You have made me a fan …. big Giant Cheerio fan ….
Thank you for being so brutally honest! Life is not always sunny.
A very interesting vlog. Rain and sickness. Glad you got through it eventually. You looked so beautiful and healthy at the end! Thanks for these videos. They are inspiring.
I filmed the outro 2 months later, that's why I suddenly looked that healthy:D
Thanks for your comment!
A true authentic trek. Not always sunshine and roses- but you will always remember the journey. Ultreia
You are quite fortunate to have sun right on your face enjoy the sunshine 🌞 ☀️ very nice informative entertaining helpful video 📹
Grazie.
Wow! Beautiful Mont. Great edit. Thank you!
Always Amazing. WOW! I was sad to see that you got ill, not fun at all. Always, always look forward to your adventures you record. Stay safe
Being ill on the road sucks, but that is part of the journey as well:) better days are always ahead :)
Use spoke wrench to “true” the wheel. You tighten and loosen spokes where the wheel bends and loosen or tighten opposite spokes. Use brake pads if caliper brakes or seat tube as guides.
Hi I've really been enjoying catching up on your videos so far! I just wanted to mention that those neoprene socks are a really good idea, but it would work even better if you size them up and wear merino wool socks under them. This system was my secret weapon when I was a courier in Edmonton. Don't believe the myth that neoprene needs to be next to your skin - you are not scuba diving lol - merino next to skin is the most comfortable and warmest, even when it's soaked. But at least that way you can wear them until they get soaked and change them out. Cheers! I'm looking forward to following along.
I will try that! Thanks!
Thank you for that spoiler alert, I was getting worried, you looked and sounded great at the end!…safe travels when you decide to move on!😎
Yeah I thought I needed that Spoiler cause I don't want people to get worried :D
You are in good mood, nice very nice! Wish you good ride.😊😊😊
There’s a saying “misery loves company”. Glad you had a travel companion
Haha yeah that's rights. Had some hard weeks on northern Spain, but that's just part of the journey :)
Aspecting you from Romania ( Europa) Romania biutiful contry Gott zehnedih
So beautiful there 😍. Im watching a year later 😅
Wobbly
When I was cycle touring in bad weather I stayed in a hotel once every 7 nights to dry everything and stay sane. Worth the cost. 💸
Wow, amazing! Thanks for the vids and showing all sides to the adventures. . I'm just planning my first bike-packing trip from UK to Barcelona. I'm 52! Hopefully my knees will hold out or I dont get some other kind of injury. I need to start a training plan to build up I think. Thanks for the inspiration and really well done YOU!!
Keep up the good work keep
On ride in
I will keep it up :)))
Grey love you is my Hero .you go
I just love your videos 🌺
I hear it falls mainly on the plains though. 🙃 Looking forward to another great update. Stay dry!
:))

Hello cherrio you go girl.🎉🎉🎉🎉 Huggs
The wobble is for the tail bag.
Beautiful Movie again. One of the strongest women what I met on my travel. What for a shit weather in the North 😵 You are a Soldier 💪🏽
Yeeeah Rick! The stuff you're doing is pretty amazing and soldier-like!! See u soon hopefully:)
Your best video yet
Schade dass du krank warst! Übrigens dein Gebrauch von englischer Obszönität ist total genial.
Jb
Krank gehört dazu!:) und danke , ich gebe mein bestes :D
Habe mir Video einfach mal so angesehen, es wurde mir vorgeschlagen. Eine tolle Sache, den Mut zu haben, eine solche Tour zu machen. Als kommender neu E-Bike Fahrer hätte ich eine Frage an Dich, wie haben sich die Regenjacke und der Poncho so geschlagen? Zumindest die Jacke müßte von Decathlon gewesen sein.
Die Jacke war der reinste Müll. Aber um ehrlich zu sein war es auch mein Fehler die billigste Regenjacke zu nehmen. Decathlon hat sehr gutes Zeug, aber die günstigste Regenjacke empfehle ich nicht:D
@@giantcheerio Danke Dir, trage lieber Ponchos, doch auf Dauer wird das auch nicht sein
@@giantcheerio War das Cape/der Poncho auch von Dir?
👌👌🏻
awesome vids! how long do you plan your trip to be?
I'll do a 3 month summer break before I take off again
The wheel is "out of true" . I am a biker and a bike mechanic , learn how to repair/service your bike it will save you a fortune . Love your videos .
ganz tolle videos...du bist ein toller mensch und jezt auch ein von mir nominierter bikepacker!
:-)
Ein nominierter Bikepacker ? :D ich schick liebe Grüße an den ersten Radler den ich auf meiner traf;)
interested to know what time of year this trip was? also cycling in the rain all the time is a real mind Drain ! well done to go that far ✊✊
Hello .you are wonderful.ceep om fallowvyou.🎉
You always seem to be in a good mood. I know by experience how demotivating rain can be when cycle touring.
May I ask you what rain jacket you are using? Thanks.
I was using the cheapest decathlon rain jacket and I wouldn't recommend buying it :D
The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plane- not😅
Never aver u rest under a trailer u would no wst thik gone happen as experienced retired fire man is n advice 😮
In Germany we say the wheel is egging
Yes we do. And we say that with a decent swabian accent
@@giantcheerio Ja Gott vadori, jetz läcksch mi doch grad am Aasch. Des schais Vordaraad aiyat wie bleed! (korrigier mich. Ich wohn am anderen Ende vom Schwarzwald) Aber klasse durchgekämpft, auch durch die anderen Probleme! 💪🏻✊🏻
I want to learn German.🥰
I love your videos !
What bike is this?
wears hiking boots, they are waterproof
Great story telling. Do you use a drone? Keep going.
Yes I use a dji mini 2:)
@@giantcheerio thanks for replying.
Hy: An out-of-true wheel will be wobbling laterally, from non-drive side to drive side.
Permanenter Regen kann echt nervlich porös machen. Und wenn einmal feucht, bekommt man halt das Material nicht mehr trocken.
Ja, recht hast du. Ist sau nervig morgens in einem feuchten Schlafsack aufzuwachen und abends in einem feuchten Schlafack einzuschlafen ;D
3:29 Swartzwald!
Pretty hardcore …. Inspiring
Thanks!
Oder hattest Du nur die Jacke?
Hello heart beat
Would be nice if you mentioned when this was
This was in April 2022:)
tic tac
Interested to know what was wrong with your bike?
Loose spokes and couldn't tightem them cause the nipples where stuck to them😬😬😬
@@giantcheerio Also watch for unbalanced load on the front wheel, particularly in your handlebar bag. Lowering the center of gravity of the weight on the front wheel helps as well.
Hi! I'm wondering if it's okay if I post your youtube channel as a link on my website?
What's your website?:)
The bike must be centered but only a good bike mekanik can do that...
😬
:D
Interesting. Awful accompanying music . Too much information asbout unwellness( yuk). Much too negative for me. Sorry.
Mist, falsches Ventil. Aber Humor behalten und an Hank Schrader gedacht. 🙂
:D
