    Its hard to put into words how amazing the support has been for this Impossible Route Project. These are NOT easy, I am always on the verge of quitting, but knowing I dont want to let you down keeps me chugging along. Now this video has ZERO mid roll ads, why? Because they ruin the story. I dont want an ad popping up in the middle of the video because thats lame. So IF, and only IF you finish this and think this was worth a small donation, it would go a LONG way. All the love, and onto the next one! ( www.paypal.com/paypalme/vegancyclist )

      Dude, this is so good. The best adventure yet. Would love to see more of these. Figuring out the right level of challenge is key. This shows that it doesn't have to be as soul-grindingly hard as Death Valley for it to be interesting. It'd be fun to have different guests with you. Maybe like pros and ex-pros who want a taste of that Lachlan Morton styled adventure. Maybe one where you guys get decked out in vintage turn of the century gear. Something interesting. I really enjoyed the history that Jeremiah Bishop brought to the trip. It gives flavor to alternating between suffer-fest and road high and just bombing really fast.

Over the last year that I have been watching you, I really think I have fallen in love with the sport and I owe that in part to you and the incredible crew that makes these phenomenal documentaries. I hope you keep up the awesome work and keep inspiring many young adventures like myself. Thank you!

    The quote in this video, and when you finished at the end of the Texas route and talked about how you were never supposed to finish really got to me. I took that straight to the heart and that got me through my personal impossible route in Canada. I never thought i could finish, I kept tellling my self that yes, I will finish and that I am meant to do this. That got ne right through the finish line. None of what I was doing made sense to most people or why I would ride a bicycle that far, but its because my heart whispered "give it a try".

    These videos really inspire me to go out there and do some adventure races/rides that I would normally never do. I did one last year that for me was crazy hard and I couldn’t believe what I was riding my bike on and through. I had to cross a river up to my waist high and the more crazy thing was I couldn’t tell where the trail was on the other side until I was half way across. It ended up being the most memorable ride I’ve done. It changed how I think about bikes and biking with my friends. After that ride I just wanted more. Keep doing these they’re amazing.

It's what y'all go through on the actual rides that is so inspiring to us all thank you to your guys entire team who bring us all of these impossible routes I have watched them all they inspired me so much and I'm grateful to each of y'all....

    The dog situation is no joke man. I had the same thing happen to me and a buddy on a ride in rural Indiana. The dogs will literally throw their whole bodies in front of your bike, and all you can do is lock the rear wheel, juke left/ right, then full gassss! Stay safe out there guys/ gals!
    Edit: Just realized as I was watching the credits that this was an hour long... cant believe a youtube video kept my attention this long. Solid doc you guys!

      I appreciate the comment Kyle, I worked super hard to make this edit flow just right. So you watching the whole thing makes me super happy. And yeah, fuk those dogs 😂 Little fluffy almost ended my trip real quick.

    Just finished watching the first three Impossible Route documentaries back-to-back. This is your best work and perfectly captures my favorite part of cycling: the adventure.

      @TheVCAdventures  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks bro! I’ve tried to learn on every film I’ve made. So this one I feel like is more polished and flows well. There’s 2 more left in the series, hopefully I can keep making them better.

    I’ve never done a century. I did 80 miles last week. These videos are showing me what is possible, to push further and that it’s the mental that cracks before anything else. Also that I should eat pineapple. Thanks to all of you for making this inspiration.
