The richest people you will ever meet don't have millions of dollars. If you asked me this guy is a spiritual billionaire. Great work man that is truly uplifting to watch.
Loving that response man ! Spiritual billionaire it resonates really :) It's nice to find videos like this aside from all the bullshit that we see on TV & everything. Cheers for the upload :)
Sure is. I've been checking out Van city van life, Chrome's channel. He stays urban so I can see towns, but this guy shows me the country side. Its gorgeous up there. Looks a bit too cold but Im born and raised in Tx that's why.
if you wait for clear weather you will never leave the house. Well don Iohan! i've hitchhiked 6,000 miles of the US. You meet the very best people this way!
Excellent video. I too have been on the Dempster highway back in the mid 90s with my father when he lived in Mayo Yukon but we drove of course. That grizzly would have had me very nervous. Good thing you didn't take those guys up on tossing your bike in the back of that truck. I am thinking they would have left without you. At least you ran into enough good folks to make up for the sketchy ones.
I'd like to remind you when camp outside of nowhere, you have to put your food away from you just in case! thanks for this advanture! peace on the road!
@@tradingforaliving949 suicide. Sort of jades me to believe that living an amazing life will make you happy and fulfilled... he was living my dream, and yet it wasn't enough for him
@@Actualhumanlive FYI, he was suffering from sleep apnea, possibly caused by the extremely high altitudes he was in. Chronic sleep deprivation can take a huge toll on anyone.
How could anyone watch this and not say something about the trek. Being born in western Canada, I've been to most of the places this guy has but in a climate controlled truck. To do what Iohan has done on a bicycle, especially in the Yukon winter is nothing short of incredible. Thanks for sharing this and planting more adventure seeds in my head.
when and how he die? this is so sad! how old was? from yesterday i watch the videos is the most amazing videos thati have see until now! so beautiful!!!
I don't know. I would have bet on Iohan in any situation. Calm cool collected. It sort of make you feel like there is no chance for us mere mortals. His inspiration will have to live on with us. I know it does with me. I have put the date of his passing on my phone set to remind me every year. I guarantee there will be a memorial ride for as long as I can. Sleep in peace Iohan. August 19 2021☮️
@@richardp6461I just found out about his story thru TH-cam suggestions. I'm a bicycle tourist also. I think that's an awesome idea. Every August 19th I think I'll also be on my bike. Thanks for the info.
GREAT documentary my friend. I did a cycling trip around Europe on my own in 2008 - cycled for 7 months with a tent, a camera and a change of clothes. To this day it was one of the most freeing and amazing experiences in my life. I didn't quite have the same dramas with ice and bears but still had some tremendous lows and even more tremendous highs. It was partly a journey of self discovery for me - asking myself questions that I've never asked myself and meeting the most amazing, friendly and giving people on the planet. For me it was a profound chapter in my life that opened the gateway to the next phase of my life. SO glad you were able to document your journey on video!!
Have you got any advice for someone planning the same? Planning to go next year so some pointers would be awsome. Im gonna make vlogs the whole way so could make for some great content i think
Man that was beatiful. Everythig! And man the editing quality of yours, just as beatiful! I wanted to be asleep 2 hours ago already, it's 3AM now, just because I coudn't stop watching!
how terribly sad that he was hurting enough to end his life...such a beautiful, kind soul....his foreshadowing w/the comment, "i know things will always work out in the end, maybe someday they won't...."....my heart hurts
My heart aches as well watching him but he has motivated so many including myself so he should be proud of his accomplishments and the rich life he lived.

You, sir, are a legend. There are no possible set of words that can come even close to describing the beauty of your journey. It was mesmerizing.. Long live you, sir..
I am so glad this came up on my recommended. Thank you for this! I can't explain the feels even though I was just watching your journey. I can't even imagine what I would feel being in those scenic places myself. I wish I could be as brave as you someday. ☺
Man you are truly living a dream you are seeing stuff most of us will never see such a good story teller it made me feel as if I was there. What cam did you use a gopro ? We want to see more awesome brother keep it up
Well done! Well paced and never boring. Great editing. Your interactions with the dogs, horses and wildlife is delightful; you are aware of the beauty surrounding you. Subscribed.
Beautiful! Excellent solo documentation. You have a very engaging accent. Thanks for all the work you put into compiling the video clips. Very nice selection of soundtracks too!
So sad he died but he left one of the most amazing videos of his adventures. It just gets better with each subsequent video. Totally miss him yet never met him.
@@gdgd5194hey there is someone else aswell called "Greg McCahon" he is cycling to argentina from alaska and he is also greatly inspired by the man himself- iohan :") iohan has passed but his legacy and work is always kept alive by 1000s of ppl who are inspired by him 🙏
I was glued to both part 1 and part 2. I too am Canadian. The mountains in the foreground are absolutely breathtaking. I've always wanted to be dropped right in middle of them with a cabin, and have solitude.
Amazing video I really enjoyed watching it. This is one of those things I wish I can do for myself one day, just to see everything from the mountains, the wild animals and the people living there its simply amazing! Maybe one day I can pack everything I need and just go, like you.
This is why I love Canada. You have inspired me in a way a can’t put in words, I can’t believe how far two wheels and mindset can take you. Good luck on your future travels
Iohan, I recently found your videos and they are truly beautiful. Thank you for the inspiration! I set off cycling from the UK to India next year and watching your videos reminds me of why I am making the journey. I wish you all the best on your future travels brother. Keep inspiring!
This was so fantastic! I’m from, B.C.🇨🇦and living vicariously through your trip was incredible and inspiring. One of a kind! Hilarious moments (guys in the truck message to the world: wazuuuup), interesting people and a beautiful video of your very exceptional adventure to some really wild areas! thanks for sharing!🚴🐻🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
you are a brave adventurous soul...thank you for making this incredible movie to share with the world! since my house burned down I stopped watching television, and only use TH-cam. This is the finest thing I have watched in a very long time! I think because you did not fear dying you had this kind of an amazing adventure. many others would have lost their lives if not at least their fingers and toes! I will be downloading this to share with family and friends ♡
This documentary series is beautiful, no matter you're not on £7,000 cameras and everything else because your storytelling and editing is beautiful. An incredible journey beautifully documented. Super super well done and thank you for sharing your story, from all of us we appreciate your hard work and beautiful commitment.
NOOOOOO; HE CAN'T BE DEAD 😭😭😭😭 He is my complete inspiration..I have lived through him as I have been going through a great depression for the past 4 years... I wish I had the chance to meet him and tell him how he saved my life through his footage.
Hi Iohan. When you go through Paraguay, I can arrange for you to stay in some places I live in Australia, but my family lives in Paraguay. I have been watching all your videos and they always make me want to leave everything and do what you are doing!
This is mind boggling ... How can you resist this .. It's scary but simply amazing and beautiful .. Pls take me too on your beautiful trips I know its not possible but I would love this . keep going Man you imaginations are superb. Looking at this I would also place a request if you could do Himalayan trip I don't the route you are better in that but don't go for it if it's risky due control line by India , China Pakistan . ( if their where multiple likes options given I would have give u millions )
Iohan Gueorguiev yay!!! Finally a reply from Your end . so happy . yeap the way going I'm sure u I'll definitely do it .this sounds exciting. Take and have safe journey .
Iohan inspired me to take those adventures. I now am a bikepack and have seen so many places..We will miss you. May you find the peace and adventures beyond.
you are the great person with so much of energy and you are a strong man... heads off to you. .. its a great adventure and you have risked your life. .. great
Just seeing this video. What a life changing and awesome experience. With all the sincerity a typed message can have, my hat is off to you sir. Regard Pakistan.
Loved every minute of it! Thanks that i could join! You did what few dare. We are often defeated by our fright, until we dare and rise above them. Then watch how the silly fears fade away in an instant. And fly that much more free now...
The richest people you will ever meet don't have millions of dollars. If you asked me this guy is a spiritual billionaire.
Great work man that is truly uplifting to watch.
That is a wonderful observation you are 100% right he is a spiritual billionaire I've never heard that before and that's you are so right on
Dalton K too bad most of us are spiritually poor and just plain broke. If only uplifting experiences could pay our bills.
i agree what an awesomely brave young man he seems so blessed with an adventurous and kind spirit....
Friggin' incredible!!!
Loving that response man ! Spiritual billionaire it resonates really :)

The sight of that Log cabin, is my dream home :)
Awesome!!! May God bless you and protect you, Ameen 😍
Thank you 🙏🏻
You've shown me divine of earth...I've never seen before natural views like your videos...

Like the vid. sometimes the music is too loud..
id probably cry if i saw wild horses
how do u navigate? esp how to find good back roads?

i totally agree..
He does!
Don’t forget to share!! :)
and then some!
weird to go thru life judging stuff by the number of views...who gives a ****?

Most were speechless.. . hard to describe the feeling when watching.. .
Yeah I would skip most of the crazy far northern stuff and just start following his journey from the White Horse. Wasn't too bad from there on.
Hello Iohan
Rewatching the entire series for the memories.
May the wind forever be behind you, and the decent be endless. RIP Iohan.
when and how he die? this is so sad! how old was? from yesterday i watch the videos is the most amazing videos thati have see until now! so beautiful!!!

I'm not crying, you're crying...
rest in peace my friend. you make me proud to be a Warmshowers host.
How do you reconcile when such inspirational people can no longer find the will to continue?

This is one of the best bike touring videos I've seen. It really captures the zeitgeist of the adventure.
But now, in 2021, the ending is sad.

Seems like TH-cam recommandations finaly works, that was 2 amazing videos

dude why aren't you famouse lol?? awesome videos I really enjoy them. p.s. can you teach me on how to edit lolol ahah ahaha lolo
Love how people connect when they are lonely. In the middle of nowhere it's easier to make a friend than in a big city
Fantastic, thoroughly enjoyed both parts immensely! Thanks Iohan for sharing your adventure...Atb Nige.
Canoe and Trail - Outdoors Blog glad you like it! there is a second part (alaska) out and a third part (GDMBR) coming in few days!
great tour , but sleeping in tent at the place where is so many bears is not for me .Scary shit
even 1 small to medium sized city is more dangerous then 100.000km2 of wild nature.
Surly should give you free bikes....great videos
