The fact this video doesn’t have millions of views shows how bad TH-cam is. One of the best things I have ever watched. You are a kind young man with a great sense of adventure. Cheers.
My guess is because its in Canada. Now if he would have went to Colombia and rode south for a year then it would be close to million views. Nobody cares about Canada. Most don’t have a clue where it is. The only good riding in Canada is in BC.
Wow! One of the best movies I have seen. Don’t think of this as a TH-cam video blog, this is a full scale movie. Heartfelt. Beautifully shot. Entertaining. Emotional. Couldn’t stop watching it. This movie is an honest telling of an amazing journey.
Most people probably don't realize that cycling across Canada was relatively speaking the "Easy Part" and that editing that documentary is the bit that took a 'hell of a lot of effort'. Thanks for enabling my wife and I our own adventure across cycling Canada. Your reaction as you saw the Rockies should be enough to convince others that the only way to cycle Canada is to do it from East to West. We had already bought the ticket when a friend shared his own experience seeing the Rockies..
Amazing job raising the money and spreading awareness. I’m 53 now but did the Canada coast to coast to coast in 1996. This brought back great memories. Love and respect 👊
Thank you for sharing this! One of the most inspirational films I have ever watched. The world needs more people like you. Thank you for reminding me that humanity can be beautiful
Awesome job Timmy. I rode Victoria to St John’s when I was 22 (1993) with my best buddy Mike. That trip made me who I am. The trip becomes a big part of you. Congrats. Great job on the doc. My 16 year old daughter and I watched the whole thing. Now she wants to go!!!
Thanks!!! Wow what a coincidence, my touring buddy is a Mike as well! It certainly has been a big part of my confidence and who I grew to be. That's so cool to hear, that's why I made it, to inspire! :D
As a kid who was first handed a bike when i was just 4 years old, i truly understand the freedom riding a cycle gives you and to have been able to do what you did, and the purpose behind it, is genuinely one of the most if not the most inspiring thing i have seen. Lets not forget the cinematography! i mean, i have no words. Its a story within itself. Thank you and congrats on your achievement.
I don't know what you've been up to since you made this wonderful trip but i say this sincerely, the world needs more of you're genuine spirit and soul. All the best in you're future endeavors. Russell from London Ontario.
Timmy, I am absolutely loving your film. As a fellow 22 year old cross Canada cyclist, August 1985 West to East, you've done a wonderful job of capturing this journey, one that my grainy 3x5 photos do not. Congratulations on this outstanding documentary. Cheers!
Well done, Really inspiring. Your grandparents are definitely proud of you. You make all Canadians proud that you're the representative of the next generation of Canadian Leaders.
Top 1% is usually said in reference to top 1% of annual incomes. But this is what I think of!! The drive, the heart, the skills, & the beauty of the man putting all this together!!! Super proud brother!! 💪🏼🙏🏼 God has truly blessed you in so many ways 🙌🏼
i have also lost my grand father to cancer, my father , my mother , my brother 7 uncles and 2 aunts , i had it myself many times , i,am ok now . your endevor was one i did many times , but never on a bycicle as i,am sick . traveling along with you on video was one of the grestest adventures i had on the net , i swear to god . THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID . my dream was always to cross Canada on the railways track . on foot . alas i,am too old now to take this endevor . thank you so much , may the good lord protect you , and i can,t wait to see your next adventure .this video should be in the national archives . so it will never be forgotten , PEACE PROFOUND .
7.9 billion people walk this earth, 38 million are canadian. that is one in every 207 people. thnx for reminding me how blessed we are to be from such a wonderful country. every day we wake up canadian is another day we've won the lottery. thnx for a great video and story. well done sir!
I have been fighting cancers for almost 10 years, and 7 diagnosis. Your ride is absolutely inspirational, and you are an incredible human being. Thank you. I have participated in the Sick Kids Great Cycle hallenge for the past 2 years. This year was completely sidelined by a tumor that showed up in my right kidney, and ureter. On August 16 right in the middle of the ride the kidney and associated parts were removed.

I have no idea if I'll make it, but I know for certain I wont if I don't start. That is my plan at this point.
Timmy c'est toute un exploit que tu as accompli je n'ai pas vue beaucoup de personne avec autant de courage et détermination, tu es un inspiration pour plusieurs. Ta présentation et montage vidéo d'une qualité exceptionnel mais surtout ta personalité et la cause font de toi un héro similaire à Tery Fox Je suis très touché par ce que tu as fait Bravo WELL DONE
This journey was very inspiring! I loved it. I felt it deep when you met new people, experienced everything across Canada & learning new things. Very adventurous person you are! I'm sorry about what happened to your family members.
This deserves millions of views. As I was watching the video mesmerized by the quality I took a pause wondering how many million views this video's got..the content was that good! really enjoying it now let me go back to continue watching it!!
Awesome job Timmy, an amazing video with a great story. it was very inspiring and heart moving. it was an honor to cross paths and meet you. It makes me very emotional happy knowing you accomplished your journey. TOGETHERNESS!!! Andy -the indigenous guy from Sask.
ANDY!!!! I have been waiting since the day I released this video to know if maybe you would ever see what that gift meant to me! So glad I crossed paths with you too man ! Much love!
@@TheAdventuresofTimmyLeger1 my grandmother once told me "the greatest gifts come from the heart" i now truly believe that to the fullest my friend. all the best to you... much love & respect!
I’m 2 minutes in and already in tears. I can’t wait to sit down and watch the entire video. I loved meeting you on the White Oak Trail.💜 Mucho love, from Houston, Texas! 🚴🏽♀️

I hope to see more of these SPECTACULAR FILMS. AND IM SO GLAD YOUR ALIVE. YOU ARE SUCH A FREE SPIRIT. KEEP THE RUBER SIDE DOUN.
oh my, probably the greatest video ive watched on yt, didnt think i would watch the whole thing and was smiling really hard when it finished, love adventure and the stories it brings. loved how you interacted with strangers and loved how u did it at a young age. im 19 and really want to do this once i graduate college. Beautiful story telling and hope your family is doing well. Hope to meet you someday Timmy!
Wonderful to watch! You grew in years on your adventure… I’m 64yo in Boston, at 59 I rode slo from Boston to Key West, at 61 I rode solo from Boston to San Diego…oh! I was a lifeguard in Old Orchard Beach,Maine during the late ‘70’s. Dated the most wonderful (beautiful) Québécois from St. Basil’s Lagrange! Canadians are wonderful people! You’ll find the same in USA! Gob bless Andrew
Thanks Andrew!!! I’d love to exchange stories one day!!! I did Maine to California with a friend just last year stay tuned to watch it on this channel!!
Epic. I won't try to look for words. This video shows what life is about. Thank you and the beautiful souls of Canada who made this possible, greetings from Holland
VERY WELL DONE VIDEO! What a trip and adventure of a lifetime... one you will never forget! Congrats and for all the donations you gathered for great organizations.
OMG so I literally am almost finished on watching this live it hats off to you man thank you for the inspiration I've turned 42 recently on a bit of a tobacco quitting and fiitness journey. I ve been biking a lot the past 10 years but especially the last three. I've never done anything like this but it's in my heart And bones that I must. Northern Michigan to Winnipeg probably a lot through Canada to mt Shasta California. One way trip fly home. I'm in Tennessee so fly to Michigan do trip then fly back from Cali to Clarksville
Wow what a story!! Its amazing the depth adding the back story of your grand parents and dying as the start and end of the story. Very cool tie into cancer and water causes for the world. Great voyage and tear jerker story. So cool. Congrats!
Those staples in my tires get me everytime....lol... Great experience riding across Canada..my parents did that in the early 80's and had a blast and met all kinds of kind people🙂
Thank you for this video!!!!!!! I’m a biker myself(17) and am building a bike camper trailer that I’ll be using from Ontario to British Columbia. I plan on living in the trailer for as long as possible
Hey man, I enjoyed every minute of this video. Watching this all the way from Germany. Great work! You reaching Victoria and placing that front tire into the water made me tear up a little bit, I'll be honest. Thank you for this piece of work.
This documentary is simply amazing that such a young man recorded this, while traveling across Canada entirely by bicycle. Great job on completing the ride and compiling such a well edited film.
You are such an inspiration, man!! Thank you for sharing your experience!! Very good to keep eyes moisturized! You are not just a great rider and adventurer but also a great filmmaker and wonderful human being!!
What a great video, and yes it brought me to tears at the end at the same time happiness in faith that the younger generation is alive with hope and companionship. I am a father, grandfather and great grandfather thank you for this gift.
Well done Timmy your family must be very proud of you. I am sure your Grandpa drifted away smiling about what you achieved. Over here in the UK we all followed Terry Fox story and his sad ending. My wife and myself did a coach tour in Canada a few years ago and were pleased to see so many tributes to him. Stay safe out there.
Brilliant! Absolutely inspiring! Your grandpa was so happy to see you and proud of you....bet it made it all worth while! Thanks for sharing your amazing experience!
Wow so much faith in humens of all ages amazing people brother. Thank you every one involved in the making of this video it realy makes me like people again .i watch another video of people doing great devide and same thing when in need people came threw
Timmy, you did a remarkable job with this project, and I am very proud of you! Thank you for sharing your experience with all of us. This is incredibly inspiring, and I am so happy for you! God bless you, son, with many more adventures to come.
One of the most inspiring, emotional, fun and enjoyable videos I've seen on TH-cam.. The people on this trip more beautiful than any scenery, that truck driver, wow.. Thanks for this...
This was amazing I had a smile on my face the whole time I even shed a tear when you got to the end! Thank you for doing all that and for sharing it with us!
What a remarkable documentary and your inspiration to all of us. I lost my Papa at 11 years old and he was my hero. Therefore, I understand the challenge and hardships of losing a family member.
Well, what can I say but this brought back so many memories for me after having ridden solo across Canada from Vancouver to Montreal in 2005. I will be back sometime to go from Montreal to Newfoundland to finish it off - but I will be back. You Canadian people, as I tell all my friends and anyone who wants to know anything about Canada, are like we Australians - friendly, happy and willing to help in any way we can. Well done, a great movie of your travels and you are a credit to your family and Grandparents.
This only popped up on my feed a couple of weeks ago and I saved it until today and what else can I say but what an amazing journey. The landscape is beautiful and so vast in Canada, the people so nice and welcoming, and the ending so emotional and I'm glad you made it home in time. You really did your family proud.
Absolutely incredible film and story, well done! thoroughly enjoyed every minute viewing this. You did your grandparents and others who are battling justice ten folds over. Thank you for sharing. Greetings from England 🏴
C'est clair que c'est sur ma bucket list ste genre d'aventure là! J'ai jamais fait de longue distance ou rien du genre en vélo, j'roule encore sur le vieux bicycle à ma mère, mais ste genre de film là m'encourage plus que n'importe quoi de m'dire "fuck it" pis d'y aller. Jme suis toujours donné l'excuse que j'avais pas l'argent ou le temps de faire ste genre d'affaire là, mais tu prouves que c'est pas ça qui va nous arrêter. J'vais revenir à ce vidéo là le jour ou jva partir pour te le dire. Merci beaucoup de partager ton expérience pis j'espère j'pas le seul à avoir été inspiré par toi!
Thank you for sharing your epic cycling adventure - and in honour of your grandparents, and supporting Sick Kids Foundation and Word Vision. Your story and film is incredible! Happy cycling from Victoria, BC!
Epic, and beautiful. I've done a number of 3 - 6 week bike trips (including some of the Maritime & BC sections you rode), and they're the kinds of experiences you can remember and relive with pleasure years later. The sense of freedom and accomplishment bike travel gives you is hard to duplicate - every day and kilometre is memorable. Your family content made this extra special. Congratulations.
What an amazing ride and video. You're so lucky to have grown up with all those family and friends in your life. You'll have this memory cemented in your life forever. Take care of yourself so that hopefully someday you'll be able to tell your own grand kids about this great country and your family and life.
That was amazing. As a grandmother I am so proud of my grandchildren, the way your grandparents were proud of you. You took it an extra mile though.. or miles! That was such a great thing you did. You’re message at the end should be inspiring to people of all ages.
Wow! This has been a dream of mine for so long, and today I watched you single-handedly ride it out like a pro. You’re an amazing person, and this video will be an inspiration for thousands, one of which being me. Thank you!

Glad I came across this video. Finished it with tears in my eyes. I just started biking too, but using my late father’s bike. This is very inspiring. Thank you for sharing this with the world. 😍
I loved this so much, really well done!! So many emotions and chills through different parts of your journey, thank you for sharing all the wonders of Canada and its kind people with us. Bless you, your family and Gisele & Henri.
It's been a long time since I watched a video this long in its entirety. What an absolute amazing trip! You truely are an inspiration. I take part in the Great Cycle Challenge for kid's cancer every August. I hope that I can do something like this in the future. Respect to you, and your grandparents. This video totally deserves more views.

The fact this video doesn’t have millions of views shows how bad TH-cam is. One of the best things I have ever watched. You are a kind young man with a great sense of adventure. Cheers.
It’s simple its Canada. Canada has ZERO good biking. Ok BC has great mountain bike trails.
agreed
This documentary should be shown on public television. Great work! Being a cyclist myself truely appreciate what you have accomplished.
That's the goal one day! I appreciate the compliments!
HOW THE HECK DOES THIS HAVE ONLY 21K VIEWS!? This is the work of a master cinematographer! Amazing transitions and drone shots!
I couldn't agree more. This is an amazing piece of work from A to Z.
it's probably the best video I've ever watched..and I've watc hundreds and hundreds ❤
@@shropshirecycle wait till u get to the thousands
Very impressive, truly master cinematographer
My guess is because its in Canada. Now if he would have went to Colombia and rode south for a year then it would be close to million views. Nobody cares about Canada. Most don’t have a clue where it is. The only good riding in Canada is in BC.

This only popped up on my feed a couple of weeks ago and I saved it until today and what else can I say but what an amazing journey. The landscape is beautiful and so vast in Canada, the people so nice and welcoming, and the ending so emotional and I'm glad you made it home in time. You really did your family proud.
Absolutely incredible film and story, well done! thoroughly enjoyed every minute viewing this. You did your grandparents and others who are battling justice ten folds over. Thank you for sharing.
Greetings from England 🏴
This had me in tears more than once. What a gift you gave to so many in so many ways. I am thankful to God for you and your heart, Timmy. 🙏💪
Excellent video. I have been watching many as I am going to do a solo trip next year for my 60th. Excited, scared, nervous, but determined.
@@george40ish GO FOR IT! let me know how it goes!
C'est clair que c'est sur ma bucket list ste genre d'aventure là! J'ai jamais fait de longue distance ou rien du genre en vélo, j'roule encore sur le vieux bicycle à ma mère, mais ste genre de film là m'encourage plus que n'importe quoi de m'dire "fuck it" pis d'y aller. Jme suis toujours donné l'excuse que j'avais pas l'argent ou le temps de faire ste genre d'affaire là, mais tu prouves que c'est pas ça qui va nous arrêter. J'vais revenir à ce vidéo là le jour ou jva partir pour te le dire. Merci beaucoup de partager ton expérience pis j'espère j'pas le seul à avoir été inspiré par toi!
That my friend was epic. I so wanted to just reach in the screen and give you a hug at the end of the film.
Thank you for sharing your epic cycling adventure - and in honour of your grandparents, and supporting Sick Kids Foundation and Word Vision. Your story and film is incredible! Happy cycling from Victoria, BC!
Absolutely Incredible, watched from start to finish.
Epic, and beautiful. I've done a number of 3 - 6 week bike trips (including some of the Maritime & BC sections you rode), and they're the kinds of experiences you can remember and relive with pleasure years later. The sense of freedom and accomplishment bike travel gives you is hard to duplicate - every day and kilometre is memorable. Your family content made this extra special. Congratulations.
GREAT JOB!! Your film is perfect! I haven't felt so moved by a film in a very long time. Thank you it meant more to me than you can possibly know.
What an amazing ride and video. You're so lucky to have grown up with all those family and friends in your life. You'll have this memory cemented in your life forever. Take care of yourself so that hopefully someday you'll be able to tell your own grand kids about this great country and your family and life.
Truly amazing film. Absolute perfection.
That was amazing. As a grandmother I am so proud of my grandchildren, the way your grandparents were proud of you. You took it an extra mile though.. or miles! That was such a great thing you did. You’re message at the end should be inspiring to people of all ages.
I made the cut!!! Thanks man... loved it!
Was great hiking with you gus!
Thank you for sharing your experience
Wow! Just WOW! What an incredible story.
As good as it gets for me.
Thanks for making this, it is inspiring and also humbling at the same time.
Excellent
Wow! This has been a dream of mine for so long, and today I watched you single-handedly ride it out like a pro. You’re an amazing person, and this video will be an inspiration for thousands, one of which being me. Thank you!

I can confirm as a Caribbean Canadian, the Bruce peninsula has beautiful beaches. It’s hard to believe that the beaches are on a lake.
Outstanding. Great storytelling. Great filming. And for a great purpose. Thanks for sharing your journey.
Glad I came across this video. Finished it with tears in my eyes. I just started biking too, but using my late father’s bike. This is very inspiring. Thank you for sharing this with the world. 😍
