Your videos are amazing. I’ve watched 100’s of bikepacking videos, and yours are some of the best I’ve seen. I’ve bikepacked parts of the GDMBR and the route you took in Oregon, the Oregon Outback, as well as I rode across the US in 2022.
You are living my next bucket list ride, and I greatly appreciate your documentation of your trip. Your photography is both amazing and inspiring.
Thank you! 🙏
As another “famous” bikepacking videographer says, “No Flatties, No Whammie and no more Crashies”
Thank you so much!! You've gotta go do the baja divide it's unbelievable!
Thank you, Dan, for allowing me to live vicariously through you. May God keep and protect you. Well done, darling.
It warms my heart to see that my people have been kind to you. We tend to get a bad rap at times, but deep down the people are kind and caring . Continue safe travels mi amigo! Om yo!
Keep going Dan! You're taking the trip I always wanted to (and still might one day). You're a model of optimism and determination.
Thank you!!
Fantastic videos Dan! Thanks for bringing us viewers along your ride
Thanks :)
I love the absolute happiness that you radiate, it is very contagious, congratulations for that and for the quality of your videos, I hope the knee has already healed!! Enjoy the trip and don't stop showing it to us, thank you very much for that!
Thank you so much!!
31:54 - was that you drinking tap water? That's brave. Great trek, Dan. Really enjoying the regular updates and your positivity.
It was at a ranch and they told me it was safe! Must've been connected to a natural spring up there somewhere!
It's always a wonderful surprise to see your monthly posts. Glad you survived the fall without any serious damage. Hang in there and stay safe! ♥
Will do!
As I mentioned in an earlier video when I said I felt like I was there with you.
It is true with every video and this one as well. Thank you for showing us your videos so we can see the world through your eyes.
You are the best Dan.
Holy shit. Finally visited after seeing you on TikTok. Please keep making videos this freaking awesome
Another great episode, thanks 👍
Thanks!
GOD BLESS YOU!! on your road!! NEVER GIVE UP!!
Looking forward to part 2.
Working on it right now!
Good to have you back in my living room
Several weeks ago now, I spotted you on Highway 1, Dan, near Santa Cruz, CA. It was shortly after stumbling upon your channel. Sighting you randomly was a hoot. You do great work, lad.
Keep it up Dan! Love the videos!
Thank you :)
Thoroughly enjoy your videos and your spirit. Look forward to the next one
Thanks, working on it right now :)
I have really enjoyed tagging along on your adventure. Stay safe and upright.
Excellent vid! Thank you for doing Baja, so I don't have to!
Thanks!
Always an adventure just watching your videos. Can't imagine what it is like actually doing it! Keep it up!
Great video. Could see the fall coming as I watched the video. Glad you're ok though. The first fall in around 5000 miles of cycling is impressive. Stay safe.👍
Absolutely loving the videos Dan, glad to see you weren’t hurt!
Great job on the videos! Made me want to go bike touring and eat tacos
Thanks! Couldn't imagine a better combo than tacos and touring
Great video !! Great adventure !! Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and enjoy your journey.
Another amazing video Dan! Thanks for sharing your journey with all of us, I’ve really enjoyed the ride so far!
We love your storytelling and grateful heart, Dan! Always so excited to watch your monthly videos!! Thank you!
Thank you so much!!
Keep ging, its a pleasure to follow your journey !!!
Go, Dan, go! And thank you so much for taking us with you! About the bees- no nest, just little blossoms in the tree. When I lived in Todos Santos down there, the mango trees hummed when they bloomed, so full of wonderful pollinating bees they were! Ryan Van Duzer did some Baja Divide videos. At first he railed against the sand, etc…, but later learned to surrender to Baja’s slow pace and just enjoy. Hey, if your guts are upset in a sort of food poisoning way, get a papaya, slice it in half, dig out a spoonful of its seems and swallow them whole with water. Local wisdom was they they killed whatever organism ailed you. Worked for me friends and me. Also, be sure to carry electrolytes (available at any pharmacy down there) because they help with abdominal cramping too. Don’t forget to enjoy the papaya after you swallow some seeds! Yum! Slice a banana into the space where the seeds were after you scoop out the tea of the seeds, and then sprinkle crushed macadamia nuts over it all (if you can find any). Divine I tell you!
New favorite cyclist on TH-cam!!
this is a great channel mexico looks great, i remember those big rocks from the trails around san diego, would be a giant pain to bike a road like that
Thanks!
Great Ride! Wonderful video of bike traveling!
You're so optimistic Dan! Even after a crash and a hard day, you seem to have this way of always looking on the bright side. Really enjoy your videos mate. Following along from Australia. Cheers
You have a great attitude about your journey! Keep it up!
Thank you! Will do!
❤
That was awesome, I'm gonna have to check out more of your videos!
So fun. Glad I found you and that you found a hat.
excellent video, good job!
Thanks :)
Fantastic viewing. The best thing about watching is that I have flights booked for BD in November. Can’t wait
What an adventure! May you have safe tacos and safe travels! Thank you for another amazing video.
Thank you!!
Love following along with your adventure!!
Awesome work in these Videos. I love every moment.
Bless you Dan. I so much enjoy following your adventures. Praying for NO MORE falls off the bike!
Thank you!! I'll do my best to stay on the saddle from here on out :)
What a ride! So fun to follow you...
Dan you videos are amazing and so inspiring. Keep going 👍🏼⚡️
Brilliant. Cheers Dan. Looking forward to part two. Have fun and stay safe.
Your dedication to the shots is INCREDIBLE!! 2 miles away up a hill…just to come back to get the camera and do it again. I admire your work. Cheers from Canada!!
Ah it just means I get to walk around a beautiful place!
Looking way better in the new helmet!
Dan, great to see your videos. You are doing great, keep it up. I can see that you are truly enjoying your journey. And I am glad you are encountering great nice people. Be safe!
Dan, we so much enjoy watching your show. Thank goodness you didn’t get hurt during your crash. We absolutely love your content and your positive attitude. Keep going and please be safe. You’re a beast!
Great video. Lots of work must go into making these.
Fantastic series, really enjoying it. Keep it up!
Love your attitude …first thing on a chilly morning and you are joyously climbing a steep hill.
Good on you !
Amazing scenery to go along with those delicious tacos! Thanks for taking us along on your journey and go easy on those sketchy downhills.
Thanks! I've been very careful since :)
Another great video Dan. I love your positive attitude throughout. And Baja looks incredible. I've been to Mexico a couple of times and likewise have always found the people to be so friendly.
Derek in Ottawa.
Awesome video my dude! High five from Oakland, California! 🎉❤
Brilliant video again Dan. Again very positive no matter what you encouter. You make one wish they had the courage to do what you do. Keep safe and keep enjoying. Look forward to the next one
Good morning from Lake Tahoe Dan! I hope you're doing well and enjoying your day. It was really nice chatting with you on the Tahoe Rim Trail a few months back after your night spent at "The Bench" overlooking the lake. My Border Collie pup Ollie and I were on our way up to the bench as you were on your way down. Grateful to have met you and thank you so much for sharing your amazing adventures with us all. Ollie, my wife and I are always excited to see where you are and what kind of fun you're having. Have a blessed day and thanks again Dan 🍻🌮🌮
Great trip prayers for your safety.
Just loving your videos! Your positivity speaks volumes - I’ve unsubscribed from some channels where whining and complaining were more important than the journey. Safe travels - can’t wait to see the next video!
Another banger episode. Cheers 🍻 🌮
Amazing trip so far.
I would love to know more about your navigation and planning of routes. It seems like you do everything effortlessly without ever getting turned around or confused.
Part 2 will involve me getting a little lost! I always have my routes downloaded on komoot and use garmin explore to reroute on the go so I can pretty quickly figure out where I need to go.
The Baja Divide is a charted route: cyclists just download a GPX file, and then they merely have to follow the line on their phone or GPS unit for weeks. The only difficulty comes when, in one section, a landowner has blocked access for cyclists, but there’s enough info on cyclist social media about how to detour around that.
I love your filming & easy-going positive nature. You are a skilled adventurer & a fab videographer. Thanks so much! I’m really enjoying the trip.
Thank you so much!
31:49 😂😂 I love it.
Such amazing cinematography!
Thanks!
🤗
We have been enjoying every one of your episodes. Both learning about and seeing your journey has been inspirational. You obviously have a knack for capturing the videos but also know how to select the right scenes and arrange each episode. The Baja looks majestic however quite challenging to ride. When you had your fall you mentioned that it could have been quite serious particularly as you were on your own. I very briefly thought - no you're not on your own as I was right there! Well done. We are looking forward to you next episode and ride safe. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Love every video
No need for passport in the free-trade zones neat the boarder :) Keep up the great work!
I want to appreciate the longer video and increased use of POV on the trails, please do more of that. I'm a bike rider and that gives me a lot better feel for what the different trails are like. I also know video editing is a lot of work so thanks for doing that.
respect !!
Thanks for all this great content Dan...best of luck with your onward journey!
Dan, another great video. what an amazing adventure your having. thank you for bringing us along
Thanks, glad you're enjoying!
Another fantastic video Dan. Love the cinematography. It looked very isolated. You were lucky 🍀 with the crash. So looking forward to the next video. 🚴🚴🇮🇪
Thank you!!
Hey there bro, met you yesterday at playa tesoro, stoked for you man, keep it up, you're an inspiration
Another excellent video, keep it up!
Great work, I particularly liked the part before the fall... A long immersive sequence...
You're creating a fabulous series Dan and your unwavering positivity is an inspiration. I felt your pain when you tumbled. Great to see your subs steadily rising. People are appreciating zhe effort it takes to do what you're doing.
awesome i love the looks of these desert roads but going without water on it must be a challenge!
Well done as usual, really enjoyed this session. Nice hat as well 😅, looks like it fits you.
Nice work Dan!
The photo, the sunsets, those tacos(not the bad one) the music. This episode was beautiful and peaceful. Until the crash. Ouch. I know that feeling. Take care of yourself! Keep bringing the best trip on youtube!
what an amazing video! i love watching your journey :)
Wonderful video! Baja is a special place full of beautiful people! Thanks for the adventure ❤. Happy trails!
Thanks!!
Kudos, Dan, for braving those rough tracks and getting through with only a couple of scrapes. It no doubt helps that the beautiful country and friendly, generous people help you get through the rough days as well! Keep pushing on, man!
Very excited for this!
I was just thinking about the conditions of your tires after such a long way right before you crashed. Glad it wasn't a major crash.
Must I look forward to you on the road video reports. It is easy to see you do a lot of extra riding with all the self video,and it does make it more interesting! Really like your music choices, not so hard on the ears. Keep that great attitude, safe travels, Tom
There’s not much I can add to these comments but to let you know how much I appreciate your video efforts and I’ll be looking forward to seeing the next episode. Thanks Dan! Have a safe journey.
