I like your upbeat attitude towards things Chris . I've watched some vids and they get down in the dumps after having a couple of flat tyres during the day . I Enjoy hitting the dirt roads roads on my postie bike . Now I'm thinking pushbike . Enjoy yourself .
Shouldn’t have been that hard to get some water. And I thought country people were suppose to be friendly! Has been a great series Chris, good to see you back out on the bike making quality videos.
There is a drought there & I really do respect that. I could feel the vibe as soon as I walked into that pub & asked the question about water. 99% are friendly as you have seen in the previous videos. I probably could have done what I've seen other cyclist do & put a big sign on my back please spare some water. I've met a few cyclist in remote places that do this & travelling tourist always give them water they have told me in the past. It's ok just means I'll be back to complete the north at a later date.
I stayed at Moolooloo station back in April 2017. The following morning it poured turning the road into a river. Get pretty hairy on that rough track back to Blinman. I guess that was a rare event
This is a very good video I am from United States northeastern Part, the state of Maine I live in the northern part of Maine... We have over six thousand miles of rideable off-road trails
Thank you. Nice place Maine I sayed in New Hampshire, waterville valley. Cross country skiing for tow months some time ago then drove to Canmore Alberta Canada. Cheers Chris.
Not in the near future. Maybe one day, they both are good for what they are designed for. The easy roll of skinny tyres on sealed roads I'm sure i will miss.
It's the Gopro 7 black. With the chest mount its close to your mouth. In the past I've had handle bar mounts & they have lots of wind noise & you can't here me speak. The chest mount works best for speaking & riding.
and I noticed a lot of people over where you are have those extra wheel trailers or whatever and my question is always how come you don't end up getting a bicycle trailer the reason I say that because your ability to carry more and a wider variety of things being a two-wheel trailer I'm just wondering why people don't do that over there
Simple reason is drag with two wheels is a lot more drag. On the highway one wheel trailer just follows straight behind you. When there's lots of traffic one wheel trailer feels safer. It can carry 35 kgs which is enough.They are my reasons.
Mostly for sand riding where skinny tyres don't work. I've been stuck on sand and bull dust. So I decided to go fat. Yes much slower on normal roads but can go place normal bikes just can't.😃
And the reason I ask is because I'm trying to decide what I want a fat-tire recumbent trike or a fat-tire diamond bicycle diamond frame bicycle as I should say
I looked into the Fat bike trikes & there price was very high. They probably would be more combortable to ride. I wouldn't like riding in thraffic on one. I just bought a ExtraWheel trailer "Mate" so I can carry lots more water. Good luck on you choice.
Great video. Thanks for the effort. ❤
Thank you 😊
Nice video watching from the southwestern US

Thank you. Hopefully in the new year there will be an ongoing adventure.😀

I hate to think how many 600 ml bottles I would have used that night. I won't be eating at that pub.
Amazing video Chris, thanks for sharing.

That's great...
When did you start fat tire touring.....
@@clayguinard3651 Only this time last year.
@@ChrisRishworth what do you mean only this time last year I don't know I don't know what you're saying
@@clayguinard3651 I only bought my Fat bicycle last year in January 2019.
I always wanted to go to Australia but never got the chance someday.
So much of the world to explore. Cheers from Australia.
Could you please tell me the name, style of of handlebar. They look so good. Cheers.
They are touring bars or butterfly bars. I do like the many positions for the hands.

Not in the near future. Maybe one day, they both are good for what they are designed for. The easy roll of skinny tyres on sealed roads I'm sure i will miss.
The audio of you talking while riding sounds nice. How do you record so clearly while riding?

Sir, what's the reason that you bought a fat bike? Because it's heavy for touring 😚
Mostly for sand riding where skinny tyres don't work. I've been stuck on sand and bull dust. So I decided to go fat. Yes much slower on normal roads but can go place normal bikes just can't.😃
@@ChrisRishworth Ooo nice
@@ChrisRishworth how much did the fat bike cost?
can i ask what your gear selections are?...
Hi I did a review of the bike awhile ago. The headset needed a viscoset crane creek. I'm going to do a review of new equipment soon.
Green Travel Bicycle Touring thanks for the reply... just saw that clip you metioned...
Ok ty
