The only city in North America I’ve seen compares is Calgary Alberta. Excellent job here and the Ecuadoreans help them out since they’re proud of their city.
Yes,@swisstop rate the best on the market. With any other brand, I’m sure I would’ve had to replace it sooner. Some brands of brake pads. I’ve gone through a set per week and I would imagine that their routers are similar in comparison.
Wow, this is soo great to see and what a coincidence one of my language exchange partners lives in Cuenca! I'm going to share this with him. Apparently it's about 4000metres altitude ?es correcto?
I think you might have the units a little off there. It’s about 2500 m here in Cuenca. Temperatures are great and from what I can understand basically December and January are the two wet months with everything else being really lovely to spend most of the day outside.
@@OmniTierra I must have misinterpreted his Spanish... maybe there's somewhere he visited in Ecuador 4000mtrs alt? Anyway, glad you're enjoying it out there. I'd love to get out there at some point on my bike touring journey. Sticking east of the Atlantic at the moment though. Great to see more of your stuff on YT!! Looking forward to your next installment ;-)
Honestly, if I didn’t have a plan to continue riding around, I would just stay here. It is a wonderful country and this city is incredible. Great bike shops, sufficient number of bike lanes with drivers that are courteous outside of the lanes. Easy access to the mountains and trails from the city. There is an airport here that services other parts of the country as well as short flights to Quito when you need to fly international. They love dogs and there are many parks here in the city as well. It would get my vote for a full or part-time cyclist.
What a cool town!!! Miss you two
Nosotros tambien mi amigo

Just messaged him. It was Cajas National Park, is 30 minutes from Cuenca. Tu puedes llegar en coche hasta 4165 metros....
Hey John - What glasses are you wearing at around 9:10? They appear to be Oakleys, but what model? Muchas gracias!
They are Oakley double edge frames with prescription lens. Super comfortable and offer a good amount of protection against the wind.
Sooo, how's the riding around Quenca? Good enough for an expat cyclist living there part time? Full time?
