The views were insane! What a ride... Your reaction when you reached the summit says it all. Those bikers are great people. As you said before (forward in the timeline, though) about truckers, most people that usually uses the road respect the cyclists. Great one, Diego.
Gotta say, This was a top notch experience. I was blown away by the beauty. Mostly met people who keep coming back as repeats. I would venture to say that it should be looked at as a NP
Just found this wonderful video! Enjoyed it so very, very much!! Thanks for posting!! I have cycled the Beartooth a few times, in my late 70s. Took me two days to cover the almost exact distance to Long Lake as in your video. I'm in my 80s now, and your video and enthusiasm and utter happiness will make me do this ride again, perhaps even this fall. It is truly a beautiful ride. I biked across Wyoming from Spearfish, SD, to Jackson Hole, in 2018. You are right about Power River Pass - it is difficult, as along the way you gain altitude, then lose some of it, only to have to regain it plus more. Thanks again, and I'm about to check out all of your videos!! Stay safe!!
Yeah, that Powder River Pass was legit. My friends, Bill and Jason, still talk about every time we hang. One of the most crushing climbs I've done. I sure hope you get out there and please be safe. You have ridden some amazing places and surely have many more to go do. Thank you for saying hello and watching this episode. Stay in touch.
It was so cool. I had a fantastic time and I plan on doing lots more of it. I dream of providing the experience just enough to instigate others to go see around them more. Its a passion of mine and I will try for as long as I can. Thank you for watching and reaching out
Gotta say, this Beartooth Pass is one of my all time favorite memories of all my tours combined. Not sure there is a more spectacular place outside of our top National Parks that compares.
S. Korea? Awesome. Thank you for watching. Hopefully I'll be in S. Korea someday. Would be amazing to experience. I've travel thru Soul to go to SE Asia and Japan. Soon enough. Safe riding to you
Wow. What a great job at everything. I have been binge watching for the last few days. As a fellow bikepacker that has over 4000 miles hauling my red healer dog on a bob trailer I still have not accomplished what you have. I hope to cross the US some day myself. Please keep touring and putting out these great videos.
Surly Dog, thank you for reaching out and watching my channel. I hope you get a chance to ride across the US someday, but it sounds like you are already riding plenty. Im touring for over one month starting from Boston and now in Ohio heading to Michigan's UP. Season 2 starts tomorrow at 7:15pm as Im taking the time to edit this tour as well. I hope and plan on continuing to create this content so stick around, please. I wish you and your pooch to stay safe. Oh btw if I ever get a dog it would be a blue heeler. My lab girl passed a few years ago after 16 years with her and Im still not ready. All the best.
Thank you. I watch me hollering on some of these clips some times and want to delete the clip and then think better of it. That climb was absolutely insanely fun and that day was memorable to say the least but the truth is that every day is spectacular. I love being out there wherever. The last episode was of just half that day. The next is of the other half and the morning after. Stay tuned and thank you for watching
Thank you for coming along for the ride. Im trying really hard to create this documentary to promote people going outdoors in anyway and share with the rest how beautiful the United States is.
Thank you, Mark. Really appreciate you watching and liking what Im doing with this content. Its been a fun experience and can't wait to keep growing in this
Hi Alan. Thanks for reaching out. New episode uploads tonight at 7:15pm United States ET. It's called Cooke City and its of the second half of the day I climbed Beartooth Pass. Hope you enjoy
Hi Stacy. I will try do a gear episode at some point. Im currently trying to keep up with editing weekly episodes as Im still on the road touring the country for another month or two after starting from Boston this year on July 18th. Hope you stay tuned. Thanks for watching. If you have any specific gear questions please ask. D.
Thanks Brennan. This season you are watching is from my crossing of last summer. Only four more episodes left to finish it and they are set to upload every Sunday at 7:15pm. Im currently in Vermont on my fourth day since starting from Boston. Im filming and hoping to keep uploading as I go west again visiting other states and sharing it with you guys.
Thank you Steven. Really nice comment and Im very happy you are digging the experience. I feel Im getting somewhere with my storytelling and editing. Can't wait to get back out there and start gathering more content for next season with all I have learned from this one.
The week before I climbed two passes in the Bighorn's at 8400s and 9666 so that's why I was ok with the elevation. Check out those episodes, Powder River Pass and Highway 14 East
Got back on the bike this year. Hoping to move back to Montana next year and this is high on my list. Thanks for making this video. I was curious about traffic and road conditions and difficulty. This is great insight.
Glad you liked it, Jay. Yeah those guys were so cool. Love my Harley dudes. They are always so kind. Hope you make it here sometime, but you and I know the these amazing paths are all around us.
I would agree. I actually get paid to do a similar task so no complaints on my end. This channel is really a way for me to have a creative outlet. Not sure I'm looking to have it be a significant income source but who knows. So far its an expense
The best cycle touring videos I’ve seen. Have you finished this trip/ are there more videos to come? Are you following a particular cycle touring route from the ACA or making your own route across the states? Thanks for such amazing videos. Regards from the UK.
Thank you for your comment. I crossed the USA last summer in three months, 4,000 miles and 14 states recording the content you see in the episodes. My only planning was to start in South Carolina and go thru the Cumberland Gap and then follow the Missouri River as Louise and Clarke did to find the way to the west coast. I went day by day and week by week. After I got back home I started doing the editing. I have never done any of these things before. It just happened organically without thinking I would get this far. There will be a total of 30 or so episodes and I will try keep up creating them but they take a lot of time and I am now in the beginning of my work season which is crazy busy for me so hopefully I won't be skipping too many weeks. Thank you so much for watching. Stay tuned
@@FlyscoutRyder Thanks for your reply. I thought you were actually enroute doing the films as you travelled - my mistake. I’ve watched a lot of cycle touring videos and can tell you that yours are fantastic, really enjoyable and I look forward to the next instalments. I’m glad there are more to come so good luck with the editing. I’ve travelled the USA and done two coast to coast trips across both the southern and northern states backpacking by bus etc but not on a bicycle. My plan is to one day cross the middle states on my touring bike funds and time allowing. I’m considering the Trans America trail but haven’t a date in mind just yet. Look forward to your next video. Best wishes.
Aww man, absolutely stunning. Thanks so much for your time and efforts to share with us youe epic journey. Super Stoked that you are still motivated to put these wonderful videos out. Please keep it up!!! I, also, really dig on the fact that you add such great narrative depicting the history, etc... Such a joy to witness. ✌🏼
So cool you like the episodes. Im a couple of episodes ahead and trying to keep up so as not skip any week to finish the season. Im working my guiding season which is not free of much time to edit so will do my best to finish. Its a fun project for sure and so happy you and my 500 or so subscribers feel the same way. Its great encouragement. Plus, Im heading back out there this summer to go do more so...
That's a great comment, thank you. Im really enjoying the process and figuring out what I want to actually do with these videos which as of now is to get people out there bicycling in any way. I see my friends getting bicycles so maybe its working
Thank you. What do you mean by rigging? My bike is a Cannonade T2000 frame but built from the ground up by me with all kinds of components. I'll try do a video of it once Im done with the Cycling USA season. Thank you for watching.
I'm sure you have already answered this but what was the gears on your bike? It's clear that for you you had selected a pretty good combination. I'm just getting back into bikes from recumbent Trikes because of health issues so I'm still trying to find a set of gears that better matches my ability. I love your videos and your passion of the sport. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for asking and thank you for watching my episodes. My Crankset is an FSA Energy Modular. Its 46/30t so two sprockets and my cassette is a Shimano CS-HG800-11 (11-34). My shifters are mechanical/cable Ultegra. I love my bike and struggle with wanting to get another because I can only fit a 1.75" tire. I would like to be able to go a bit beyond a 2" but for now I'm attached and will keep at it with my rig. Hope this helps. Get out there and ride anywhere. The recumbent trike bikes are so cool. my neighbor has one. I think they are legit
@@FlyscoutRyder That's funny because I have a 2021 Trek Checkpoint SL that has the new GRX Gravel Specific power train. It has a 2x30-46 and an 11x11-34 too. I have replaced the 40c tires with 45c (1.77 inch) Pirelli Cinturato GRAVEL M (Mixed) Tire - Tubeless. They fit just fine. I'm biking poor chip and oil roads and river wash gravel roads. These tires are fantastic for these surfaces. They also work great in the sand and sticky mud I encounter some days around here. I am considering changing my cassette for an 11-40 for those longer or steeper climbs here along the Wabash River in West-Central Indiana. Are you a Fly Fishing Guide in FL too? When I was younger I used to build rods and fie flies fishing for NE Iowa Trout. Retired now. Maybe I should make some time and hire you? Roadtrip to FL?
@@paddlingfan1 Your rig sounds great. I’ve cycled by the Wabash but can’t remember where exactly. Evansville maybe. Im a 28 year fly fishing guide in the Keys but unfortunately I’ve had my bookings for the season i fish been with the same anglers for at least over 15 years now so i don’t have openings. Im actually struggling with figuring out how to incorporate both my cycling and my guiding. Im committed to both so we’ll see. Im really enjoying the filming and creation of these episodes
@@diegorouylle2225 As an investor I've seen most often that people that are diversified in income never really shine in anything financially. NOT ALWAYS. Mostly. I would recommend focusing on growing your business in just one area if possible to give you the best chance of excelling financially. Income gives you options. For example: Biking you could create a website that gives you a place to sell products or services.bike related. An example might be books or training camps or travel advice in detail or equipment or bikes as an affiliate........ In fishing you might need to contract out another guide and boat. You'll just need to put protection in the contract. Maybe expand into a global guide service in the off season can double your annual guide income.... Money gives you options. Best of luck!
Hello. This Beartooth Pass episode is of my first season, Cycling USA, in 2020. It was in mid September. If you go to my ABOUT page in my channel, you can read a description of my channel's structure. Thank you for watching and reaching out.
The views were insane!
What a ride... Your reaction when you reached the summit says it all.
Those bikers are great people. As you said before (forward in the timeline, though) about truckers, most people that usually uses the road respect the cyclists.
Great one, Diego.
Truckers and Bikers are so nice. Gotta stop and say hello to them as often as I can
Absolutely stunning. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful scenery. It must have been a joyous feeling being on top of that pass.
Gotta say, This was a top notch experience. I was blown away by the beauty. Mostly met people who keep coming back as repeats. I would venture to say that it should be looked at as a NP
Another Great Day of Cycling .......Looking forward to what's to come and YellowStone!!
Thank you. next two episodes are on the way

I love your enthusiasm! Especially when you reached Puget sound! No better feeling in the world. What an epic journey you had.

What else to say but congrat, you did it and you made it look easy. Those views and that panorama is amazing
Gotta say, this Beartooth Pass is one of my all time favorite memories of all my tours combined. Not sure there is a more spectacular place outside of our top National Parks that compares.
Great scenery and narration! Greetings from a fellow tour cyclist in South Korea!
S. Korea? Awesome. Thank you for watching. Hopefully I'll be in S. Korea someday. Would be amazing to experience. I've travel thru Soul to go to SE Asia and Japan. Soon enough. Safe riding to you

Nice video!! I just noticed it's Ep21!?!?..., I've got some catching up to do. Glad I found this.
Thank you. Hope you enjoy
This was the best videos of reaching a summit that I've seen. I can't imagine anyone not being happy seeing your elation. Great job Diego 👍
Thank you. I watch me hollering on some of these clips some times and want to delete the clip and then think better of it. That climb was absolutely insanely fun and that day was memorable to say the least but the truth is that every day is spectacular. I love being out there wherever.

Awesome vid. Awesome pass. Atta boy great job. Enjoyed the ride along..👍
Hi Robert. That is one special area of this country. Thanks for checking out this episode
I've watched many of your videos and wish to say thank you sir, it has been a pleasure traveling with you ! Kind regards from Maine ,happy trails.
Thank you for coming along for the ride. Im trying really hard to create this documentary to promote people going outdoors in anyway and share with the rest how beautiful the United States is.
So , So , AWESOME
The audio and video is just fantastic. Like watching an epic movie.
Thanks again for the beautiful work.
Mark from Maryland
Thank you, Mark. Really appreciate you watching and liking what Im doing with this content. Its been a fun experience and can't wait to keep growing in this
Happy Easter from a (still) cold Scotland Diego. Hope you're OK? Missing my weekly fix of Flyscout !!!!
Best wishes,
A.
Hi Alan. Thanks for reaching out. New episode uploads tonight at 7:15pm United States ET. It's called Cooke City and its of the second half of the day I climbed Beartooth Pass. Hope you enjoy
Great job on the summit! I'm trying to catch up. Love watching your adventure. If you ever get the chance a gear load out video would be great to see.
Hi Stacy. I will try do a gear episode at some point. Im currently trying to keep up with editing weekly episodes as Im still on the road touring the country for another month or two after starting from Boston this year on July 18th. Hope you stay tuned. Thanks for watching.

Your editing of these videos is amazing! I hope you had a wonderful journey and I hope you enjoyed Montana! :)
Thanks Brennan. This season you are watching is from my crossing of last summer. Only four more episodes left to finish it and they are set to upload every Sunday at 7:15pm. Im currently in Vermont on my fourth day since starting from Boston. Im filming and hoping to keep uploading as I go west again visiting other states and sharing it with you guys.
You have done a spectacular job with this series. It has been a true pleasure being able to follow along. Well done, sir.
Thank you Steven. Really nice comment and Im very happy you are digging the experience. I feel Im getting somewhere with my storytelling and editing. Can't wait to get back out there and start gathering more content for next season with all I have learned from this one.
R.E.S.P.E.C.T Thats all I need to say !!
Thank you so much
This is great. What a scenery you have! You are so high up that you could probably feel elevation by breathing.
The week before I climbed two passes in the Bighorn's at 8400s and 9666 so that's why I was ok with the elevation. Check out those episodes, Powder River Pass and Highway 14 East
Got back on the bike this year. Hoping to move back to Montana next year and this is high on my list. Thanks for making this video. I was curious about traffic and road conditions and difficulty. This is great insight.
If you can, you must go to Beartooth Mountain. It is without any doubts the most amazing cycling experience. When I think of it, I miss it.
I'm blown away by the scenery. Incredible. The guy on the motorbikes at the summit were so cool too. I've got to get myself to the States! Jay
Glad you liked it, Jay. Yeah those guys were so cool. Love my Harley dudes. They are always so kind. Hope you make it here sometime, but you and I know the these amazing paths are all around us.
@@FlyscoutRyder So true
Amazing brother!!!!
Thanks man. Appreciate you checking out the channel. Let's keep at it.
Crazy! Well done, and greate video.
Thanks man. I checked out your channel. I like what you are doing there. Very cool.
@@FlyscoutRyder Thanks man!
Amazing accomplishment, such a gorgeous pass. Great job on the videos!
Thanks Bryce. What a blast that pass was. I wish I was climbing and dropping all the time. So fun
You have taken yourself to a higher level. What a trip with beautiful views. Respect !! 👍🏼
Thank you so much. Very kind of you.
What an accomplishment. Beautiful beautiful scenery. Wouldn't it be great to be a paid to bike tour? To me that would be the dream job. Take care, Al
