- Back in Oaxaca we joined Patrick Farnworth for episode # 172 of the Bikes or Death podcast.
Bikes or Death is the top Bikepacking podcast that has a focus on ultra-MTB racing and is a leader in the space.
This is the first part of the podcast. This was a wide ranging conversation that gives a bit more insight to who John and Mira are and what they are up to.
This edit has extra footage from the original podcast and has been condensed. There will be a part 2 to finish off the conversation.
Enjoy!

Thank you!!!!
Best dog we ever had, Daisy, was a Border Collie/Heeler cross. She was our first farm dog when we moved back out to the farm. She was a little over protective but exactly what we needed at the time. She could not stand being indoors so got her way and stayed outside most of the time. But she loved round, turning objects. Even the cam wheels on my bow! She looked a lot like Mira and that is why I started watching. She is gone now, buried 30 yards from our house with a small tire over her grave. Thanks for your videos! Take care.
Good you and Her :) We have 10 year old Collie cross she did a 6 miler single track ride yesterday. Theyare amazing dogs. Glad you had great memories with yours :)
My wife ran with Daisy until she just got too old. But we did a lot of walking through the field “hunting”. Ha ha. I would rarely see any rabbits but she loved it! Bow or forearm, she was always ready! Good to hear other stories as well! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing Daisy with us. They are a great combination of traits. But then there are those days 🤪🐕. Mira is always up for an adventure
Thanks!
Thank you very much Adventure🙏. This make a real difference for us travelling and stopping to make videos.
Great info. The Channel has always been entertaining and these informative bit are icing on the cake.
Glad you think so! Not the type of video that grows the channel maybe but Patrick did a good job so I thought I could share a version with our audience too.
Love watching your adventures with MIRA John and I cannot in fact get enough of them. Can you ever see you both getting over to here in the UK. Stay safe out there.
We would love to
Love John & Mira🙏🏼🫶
Best duo ever!
Happy trails guys ✌🏼
Mira is the best
Great video John, good luck with your website😊Seeing you and Mira interact is just a joy to behold😁
Yes Dogpacking.com is a passion project that we hope meets a need to help dog have great adventures
Love Mira and your tenor. Watching you ride I always worry about bad water and rattlesnakes. Oh, and the off leash dogs you see all over Mexico.
We encounter both very rarely 🤗💕🐕
Remember googling John when he first appeared on Van Duzer's channel. All I could find was a one time world class ice climber. And then it all kind of made sense, but didn't. Interesting dude. And Mira is adorable. My cat is kind of like Mira, always wants to be in the action. He used to ride on my shoulder. But then I got a Hope Pro 4 hub for my trials bike and that was the end of that.
Thanks for sharing your experience. We're enjoying it from here, take care out there.
Our pleasure Tim. Thanks for watching 👍
"MIRAAA....🤗😍"
My wife and are about take our 10 year old collie\assie cross on a 5 year van\bike trip! Great Dogs! Happy for you and Mira John! Wishing many many happy miles and adventures!
That is awesome! Thanks for watching
John… you inspired me to get a trailer and ride with my dog! I’ve watched all your vids. Good luck on your adventures!! Question… what goggles do you use? Are they just kids size ski goggles?
They are @rexspecs1586 They really are the best for K9 eye protection 🤗💕🐕
Always good to see you John and Mira, good podcast great questions, I'll be watching for your next one. Can't wait to enjoy your world tour. SJ
Yes Patrick @bikesordeath does a great job. Makes a big difference in the bikepacking community.
John, what saddle do you use?
This changes from time to time
Why aren’t you putting your Vedic’s on TH-cam?
Because I don’t know what that is 🤔
My Chihuahua is slower, but a weighs a lot less.
I hope so. Mira weighs about 20kg or about 3 Chihuahuas
