I’m a 62 year old woman and I bought a mountain bike last summer so I could explore all the many dirt and gravel roads where I live in Quincy, CA. I love your latest video (all your videos, in fact). I find them very inspiring! Thank you!
Lael inspired me to be a fearless young woman, grab my bike and ride miles and miles. Hopefully summer will come soon and I'll be able to have big adventures. Much love to everyone from Catalunya
Biking is that one thing that links every single one of us with our childhood. For many, it was their first taste of adventure and freedom. The rides may have gotten longer, but that same joy and wonderment is still present everytime we throw a leg over a bike. Bikes are one of the world's greatest gifts.
The cloud nine of bicycling does not last much, "that one thing" is facing misery within, if able to break through, that is the true joy from bicycling to cycling.
lael is my inspiration and role model, I'm so happy to see more from her and her amazing family. I'm glad to see they tackled the pandemic so well too!
That smile and that natural enthusiasm are so infectious!!! After every movie of Lael i feel like jumping on my bike so badly. Hé Specialized, forget about putting Sagan on the front page - Lael here is the real deal!
Absolutely beautiful story. Inspirational. Amazing. Riding a bike is one of my favorite things in the world. Thank you for sharing and inspiring others.
Love Laels adventures. Myself, have cycled many of the routes Leal rode in Alaska and can say she is 100% true to her adventures. She is an awesome talent and, more importantly, a true Alaskan. Love her and Rue's travels everywhere they go.
In a world full of men with their Ideologies & Ego’s, Lael & Rue ‘s Flag is the only one I’ve found worthy to carry. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for shining light into a black hole and providing the inspiration to overcome death, loss, heartbreak, addiction, and trauma. My love for you Sisters is eternal & true. Keep shining your light, I’ll join you soon. -Lévi.
Wow…… 🤟🏼👍🏼🤟🏼…. What a great video ….I’ve been waiting to hear from Lael… you’re so blessed to have a partner that not only shares your interests but beautifully records your lives together
As with all videos with Lael, truly remarkable. This is one of the best, outstanding work on the ride, giving back to the community, production, wonderful. Very inspired knowing there are people like this in the world! Can't wait to get back riding once the snow goes away. Thank you!
Wow..Awesome Lael..keep Riding...anyway..i've been riding 40yrs...now...but when i saw yr Video on Alaska. ..inspires Me to Keep in Riding More...Not Stopping...Now..Thanks for Sharing...yr Experience...(From Malaysia)...
Yeah Lael. You are the best ambassador for cycling. So real and so positive. And we got to meet Rue. You are one of the best of us as a cyclist and more importantly as a person.
When I was a child cycling held a sense of empowering adventure and independence that I think some people get when they buy their first car. But when I got my car I realised that there was no adventure in it. It only got me from place to place. I realised that the journey on a bike was the adventure. I just love riding my bike. Its so beautiful seeing children growing up empowered to feel the same way. This is an awesome video.
Lael you are such an inspiratiom to me, often when I think I am going to die after 100km I think of your positivity and enthusiasm towards biking and that keeps me riding. I am so glad more girls ride for the sake of the ride. Lots of love from Poland!
Beautiful. Love how the E-bikes allow people to ride together. Picking up my second Revelate bag soon. Spinelock 10L to occasionally replace my enormous first seat bag.
Lael, you are so cool and impressive. Inspirational. A true role model for our youth. Thanks for being you. Ohhh and the photography is incredible. So much talent!
As a photographer myself, I feel your frustration Rue... I feel you. Yes, its so frustrating being on a bike without a camera and you saw a yellow magazine momment and you wish to go back but the momment is gone. You are on your bike frustrated. Specially during golden hour, goodness I want to cry if momments happend and you didnt capture it.
Your a very inspiring person I kinda lost my drive to ride when covid hit Canada i kinda got into a little bit of a depression with having nowhere to go..But watching your videos gets me going and gives me that hope to keep rideing to spite what's going on in the wold keep up the good work and stay safe and healthy and let's hope 2021 will be a better year. 😎🇨🇦🚲
Lael and Rugile are such a good bicycle activist! This film hits all the high points of the benefits of a family-friendly biking lifestyle. Keep inspiring Leal - Rue!
Aw man, I love u Lael! Just such awesomeness. Your smile, makes me smile :) Thank you all for putting this documentary together, really captures all the goodness about riding. Which. Is. Exactly. What. We need right now (exhale)...
wow this is another incredible video by Lael and Rue! Get‘s me motivated so so much and already planning my long distance bike trips for this summer. Ofc with Komoot 😄💪
Thanks for putting this together, Rue and Lael. It's an amazing project and I love how you inspire everyone to get out on bikes. Keep up the great work.
Thank you for being such an inspiration to get out and explore the world on two wheels, thanks Rue for packing all the gear and capturing these adventures and sharing them.
You're pretty amazing. I appreciate you sharing your personal challenges. I am not competitive, never been on a team and am not inclined to push myself or go fast for any reason. My parents sacrcastically referred to me as ‘lightning and the slug’. I got over it. I was too busy reading or riding my horse. However, as an adult I discovered serious cycling and found that I just love 💕 the pedaling. All day is good. I've done some bicycle touring and really liked it. As soon as the zombie 🧟 viral Apocalypse is over I'm going mountain biking, hiking and trail riding in Utah. After that I'm bike camping 🏕️ coast to coast (about 3 months) then going on a bike trip in Norway, but not in winter even then though I love snow and cold weather. ❄️ Your videos are inspiring and I'm waiting for a vaccination so I can get out of the house and ride. 👍☮️🌞🚵♀️
All the best to you, congratulations truly. I've never been to Alaska but I've done long distance running and cycling in a few countries. Had to stop doing it in Mexico for safety reasons after a few incidents but I hope to keep doing it elsewhere soon. Take care, keep doing this
Such a beautiful piece. Thank you Rue and Lael for this project. I'm so inspired. You are both such gems. I'll never forget riding with you last March in Arizona. Ken
Absolutely beautiful, thanks to Ru and yourself, don't think I'll ever reach Alaska so it's always nice to see it through someone else especially shot in such a great, way with amazing images whilst the person is doing a activity I appreciate. Also during Covid the bikes kept me sane, so turning an huge negative in to a positive time with family is great. Stay and ride safe guys 👍🏻🚴🏻♂️🚴🏼♀️🚴🏻♂️🚴🏼♀️🚴🏻♂️😄
Truly inspiring! I can totally identify with the freedom of getting on the bike solo or with a close friend during the pandemic. Thank you for sharing your ride :)
So beautiful, so inspiring.... As always with Lael and Rugile! I think you both inspire so much people (including me) to push their own boundaries while contemplating.
Great! Indeed everybody can get to know every road or street or path around his home. Even me, confined during lockdown in 10 square km of the small village in Italy where I live, I managed to sum up 80 km riding them, paved or unpaved, in the village and in the fields, around home and yet discovering new places I never knew! Anyway awaiting for easing pandemics, in order to get back to much longer rides, firstly around Italy and Europe!
Thank you Pearl Izumi, Lael, and Rue for creating quality and inspirational content on TH-cam
Glad you enjoy it! Keep it up on your efforts to get people riding bikes too, Ryan!
@@pearlizumi you know it! Here’s to an amazing 2021
Thanks Ryan! That really means a lot. Thank you for being so encouraging!
Thank you for the inside view of Alaska from a bike. Well done Lael and Rue and thank you Pearl Izumi for supporting and sharing.
Hey Ryan, should have know you would be here. You two seem like kindred spirits of wonderful positivity!! 🙏🏼🚴♀️
I’m a black male 66 yr old and I love riding and you are such an encouragement. I love challenges. I’m baby boomer but my mind is like a child.

Another amazing work from Rue, and Lael. This speaks to the adventurer's heart in all of us.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Oh man-legends. I’m so thankful you and Rue are in the world and sharing this beauty with us 🙏
So inspired by Rue's work and dedication to their cycling film projects. Lael and Rue are creating special vibes here.
Couldn't agree more.

So many remarkable people. Always a joy to see and hear what Lael is up to. Thanks for continuing to inspire us Lael!

Absolutely love the soundtrack to this piece.
It's from my brother, James Wilcox. He makes the music for all of our videos. I love it too!
That smile and that natural enthusiasm are so infectious!!! After every movie of Lael i feel like jumping on my bike so badly. Hé Specialized, forget about putting Sagan on the front page - Lael here is the real deal!
Thank you Rue for capturing the beautiful of the place + the warmth of Lael and her family. Another gorgeous film.
Thanks Erik!
Just seeing the kids having fun on bikes is enough for me
Absolutely beautiful story. Inspirational. Amazing. Riding a bike is one of my favorite things in the world. Thank you for sharing and inspiring others.

Time to put the wheels back on my bike... what an inspiration. I love it! And the music was fantastic too.
Awesome rider! It's riders like her that motivate me to dig deep! G3t out n ride!
Lael and Rue are the coolest! Amazing work.
Beautiful. Love how the E-bikes allow people to ride together.

Gotta be up there as one of the best bike adventure videos I’ve ever watched.
This is lovely Rue! Lael's passion radiates and you can't help but smile! I would love to bike across AK.
Watching videos about Lael and Rue makes me wanna go out and ride my bike, every time I dont feel like it...
As someone who has Cerebral Palsy and rides thousands of miles on my bikes a year I can relate to all of this raddness! Thanks!
amazing. i cried at the end... thanks lael and rue! keep forging ahead, in every direction.
I love it, projects like this I find to be more interesting and inspiring than the racing, though I love them both. Thanks for the great work you two!
Lael and Rugile are such a good bicycle activist! This film hits all the high points of the benefits of a family-friendly biking lifestyle. Keep inspiring Leal - Rue!
