Hello everyone. Thank you so much for taking part in our journey! While our time in Greece consisted of way less cycling than we had hoped for, there is so much more to come. To support us, please like and comment the video. It helps a lot! See you from Turkey!
Thanks. Actually we or I (Mathias) try to defeat the naysayer in myself through this journey. I've always cycled, but only as a means of transport, not for fun or sports. Arev only learned to cycle in her twenties, as cycling is not part of the culture in Armenia (yet).
Lifes full of ups and downs but its how you deal with them ,,,,glad your over your sickness and looking forward to watching you guys in turkey (my faveorite holiday country ) 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊sometimes i feel as if im peddaling along side yous , 🌞🌞
Thanks Mickey! That is what we try to achieve, taking as many people with us as possible! Starting with Turkey we think this is just the start of our journey getting better and better!
Thank you so much for sharing. It’s great to see how far you’ve come both literally and on a personal level. I’m excited to watch the rest of your journey and wish you all the best
Dear Ashley, thank you for your wonderful comments. This is very motivating for us! Just wondering, how are you choosing which video you watch next? We recommend doing them in factual progression. It is youtube suggesting them in a random order? Here is a link to the playlis th-cam.com/play/PLaSOS22KIJA61jvpBAIAU5rflwTUKKFlu.html&si=EWf2W75MOaUw0l00
@@AmazingWorldBikeTour. Thank you for taking the time to answer, I started with the video when you cross the border into France. At one point I realised I missed a couple of them, watched them and since then yes I do watch them in very orderly manner!!
The exact same thing happens to me in 2020 during a bike tour. Inflammation in the small intestine. Severe fever. Since then I learned to eat slow and chew the food really well and always drink more water than you think you need. Drinking enough has always been a problem for me but not since then. Haven’t had any issues after that. Safe travels you two.
Thanks! Actually the fever wasn't the biggest issue. The diarrhea was so extreme that his body did not take in any fluid for several days, hence the dehydration. The doctors couldn't tell what caused it, but I try to eat as healthy as possible!
Wow, life gets in the way, but you came through😀 Have been foolowing you from the start and kinda suprised that I left the UK in March and just arrived in Cesme on the same route at the start of May. Cycled almost the exact same route to Pumakkle and Cappadocia, would have been nuts to have bumped into you. Brilliant journey your having, just showing everyone whats is possible.
Fantastic! We hope you are having the time of your life! As you might have realized by now, the videos are over one year delayed. All the editing is extremely time intensive and we had to handle more things on the side that we had hoped. Also we two are jot the fastest bunch, so you might very well catch us along the way. Right now we are in Iran 🇮🇷 😀
You are starting the most difficult stage. Please pay attention to vehicle traffic in Turkey. Especially trucks. Besides, you will see very good friendships and help here. I think you will be happy. Have a nice trip. We love you and follow you :)
Thanks you Mesut! You think Turkey is difficult or just everything from here towards the east? Most cyclist we talked to loved touring Turkey, Georgia, Armenia and Iran!
@@AmazingWorldBikeTour It is not difficult. It is so modern that it cannot be compared with other eastern countries. You can easily find everything you are looking for. You can easily stay anywhere. It is perfect in terms of geography. The only problem is there is no bike path. Be careful when you go on the main roads. You will see friendships and cooperation that you have never seen in any other country. Love. Have a good journey :)
So sorry to hear about all the life challenges you two faced in the past months, and glad you are moving on with optimism! Wishing you all the best and both physical and mental strength!
Life always happens but it is great to see you guys are taking it a step at a time and not giving up on dreams. Looking forward to the next adventures, hope that you guys are doing good now ❤ A question, how much did you guys save up - if you are able or willing to tell - for this trip?
Yes, of course. What can you do, right?! While the road was bumby for sure, right now we are doing great. We started with about 20k in the bank, but unforseen life circumstances lowered that number quite considerably. We were forced to another longer than expected break and did some freelancing online to stay afloat. We hope to have one more year worth of traveling left now.
Doctors could not give a definitive answer, but likely. He did jot have such issues ever before. Until that time we usually drank water from taps. We regularly asked people if the water is good to drink. It was not food poisoning, since he did not throw up at all.
Hello Arev & Mathias, so we have another couple from Germany hopefully cycle around the world by bicycle! Previously I followed another German couple Louisa & Tobi who went the opposite way (west), but just a few months ago they ended their journey abruptly after arriving in Asia (Thailand). So on hindsight did you figure out how did Mathias get inflammation of the small intestine? ... the mysterious 'cake' that you found on the road? And also what is your take on cycling shorts? It doesn't seem that you two are into cycling shorts, because you don't see any benefits of wearing them? Have fun cycling!
Thanks. Did they stop because of illness? We still don't know what caused the small intestine inflammation. Because of the amount of antibiotics he had to take he had a lot of trouble with diarrhea for quite a while, but it is good now. We are sure it wasn't the cake thought ;-) We tried cycling shorts on and off until very recently. Sometimes I wear one, but most of the time we are fine without. Mathias actually gets saddle sores when he wears them, but maybe we just didn't find the proper ones. In think the correct seating position and saddle are the key.
Yeah, we felt the need for holding cars at distance in France. I think we mentioned starting to use them in the first Italy episode. th-cam.com/video/1iHfkrFmwic/w-d-xo.html

So glad to see Mathias back in the saddle! 🤩
Thank you! We are happy too 😊
Your efforts on bicycle are praiseworthy. 👍
Thanks :-)
Very exciting to watch the next episode
Hey Sander! Thank you so much. We are working on our first episode from 🇹🇷!
I caught those same two ferries on my cycle tour in 2009. Thanks for the video.
Amazing! From where to where did you cycle?
So inspiring! ignore any naysayers! Have you always been bicycle enthusiasts?
Thanks. Actually we or I (Mathias) try to defeat the naysayer in myself through this journey. I've always cycled, but only as a means of transport, not for fun or sports.
Arev only learned to cycle in her twenties, as cycling is not part of the culture in Armenia (yet).
I like this episode. Not just cycling but i feel like i got to know you a little bit.
And that while we just start to get to know us 🤣 Thanks!

Greetings from Ohio, USA. So happy that you both continued your travels! Love the videos.
Thanks Andrew! Imagine how glad we are 😅
Thank you so much for sharing. It’s great to see how far you’ve come both literally and on a personal level. I’m excited to watch the rest of your journey and wish you all the best
Thank you! Yes, this is the greatest learning experience of our life so far. We are so happy to be doing this!
Glad you're back on the road. Thanks for all the hard work putting the videos together!
Hey Glen! Imagine how glad we are 😅 Thanks a lot. At the end of the day, they will always be a great way for us to look back!
Enjoy your bicycle touring very much.
Thanks! There will be a lot more bicycle touring coming up for sure 😅
So glad you've put your troubles behind you and back on the bikes. Loving the videos of your journey, keep them coming!👍
Thanks Colin. Good to hear that you enjoy our videos! We try our best to keep a steady flow 😅
Thank you for your videos. The personal side of them makes them of higher interest and quality for me. :)

Some things we can't change. Even more reason to change what we can!

Traveling by bike is very good💪💪💪
Yes, we love it too. Our journey continues. We just uploaded the latest video from Turkey!

Miss you too 😘
Any idea if Mateo’s sickness was facilitated by being on the road? Could it be a case of beaver fever? Ie drinking from streams?
Doctors could not give a definitive answer, but likely. He did jot have such issues ever before. Until that time we usually drank water from taps. We regularly asked people if the water is good to drink. It was not food poisoning, since he did not throw up at all.
Cool
Thanks!

You don't say anything about your pool noodles. I've noticed how you're using them. Maybe you should share with others
Yeah, we felt the need for holding cars at distance in France. I think we mentioned starting to use them in the first Italy episode.
