Amazing, what an experience
Wonder, what are you up to now ?
What’s new? I’m planning a similar trip. Do you have a route map of the route you took?
The most inspiring video I've ever seen. Good for you!
Excellent 👌👍👍👍👌
Hello mister......you are not gonna believe it but I m that small kid in that video
Lovely
Even after 8 years your journey looks great. Bravo from Greece...
Super, i want to do this some day
Thank you for sharing your immense vision, strength and hope with us. I admire you what you have achieved. Thank you from Oslo.
A bit about your bike and gear please?
returned home penniless.....but got a wealth of experiences and memories that will last a lifetime...well done....dont regret a second of what you did.
Very sad to know that you could not enter in Pakistan. Had you been there I as a member of warmshowers would have been there as your host. Any way my best wishes are with you.
I hiked the Appalachian Trail in North America with Aussies. Those bastards are tough as nails and never give up.
Did you use a Brooks saddle?
Yep, the B17 classic. There used to be a special version with copper rivets but i found that after time the leather stretched and exposed the sharp edges which would tear my knicks. Stick to the rounded rivets.
This is one of my go-to pick-me-up things when I get a bit down, especially in these days with so little prospect. Thank you for sharing your incredible adventure.
Glad it was helpful!
You ARE the reasons.
Where is the bike tour? This is more a stupid sefish presentation of some random photos. Very lame too watch. U not the only one in the world taking photo, and stop with the smug philosophic talk, you re not Cristoforo colombo
It's not philosophy, it's lived experience.
Great video 👍, I’m looking in to doing this after I finish my A levels. Not many people I know are interested in travelling and I just don’t understand why :)
What is your gear ratio?
Standard Rohloff setup. Over time i went to a slightly smaller cog on the front when it came up for replacement.
big respect for your trip..thanks for sharing
7:44 with Álvaro Neil, the Biciclown! 👍
3:17 OH! I recognize Shangri-la. Lucky you to be able to travel around China! It has so many things to see, so many things to experience. 一路平安 !
2:13 "Trusting my heart to be the compass." THAT is freedom, it is a very overwelming and satisfying feeling. I wish everybody could have a chance to feel that way. The world can be beautiful...
This is truly wonderful and so well put together. Ill have to see what else you have put up. You rode places i just wouldn't. But you are the richer for it. Yes poor countries people are happier, more giving pay their bills more reliably, it seems. Except for the crime and scams and lower value for life. But I think when you are living the poor life on a bike, you become less a target of what people can get from you, but that you are in need of help yourself. I think people seem to be inspired by those who ride dangerous harsh conditions and empathetically want to help and be part of it. I think it's educated middle-class who do such trips, not because they can afford to, but because they have found lack of satisfaction with their middle-class existence. And had expectations unfulfilled in that respect. Perhaps those without such background have fewer expectations and struggle on. Whatever, it is the life lived that too few seek to follow, who struggle fir life for a house in the city or good job having never lived. You said you enjoyed coming home to family? Surely you dont have a wife and kids? Its also a selfish pursuit. But we need to be selfish sometime to focus on personal needs and dreams, not those of others. Only 4 years but more Iife lived than most over a lifetime...
Well shared. Thank you. I didn't have a wife or a kid at the time. I do now. A different kind of adventure!
How did you manage to cross the border?
wow!! Vedio 👍
I love cycling
This video just made my morning. Will be going to work with a smile today😀 I’m live in Adelaide & am planning something like this 👍

Thank you for the great video and wonderful wordsmith skills.

Australia is the hardest for cycling... Too many cowboy vehicle drivers... Stay out of the west would be my advice... Great video btw, thanks for sharing...
Nothing earthly can fill the gap which belongs to your creator.
There is a reason some people are rich. Greed and selfishness. They are poor in their hearts. What has Chris done since? Settled down, got a good job, family, house, car?
Its true. I've noticed when a "rich" friend stays at my house, after they leave somethings usually missing from my home, my poor friends would never do such a thing, people expect the poor to steal its usually the opposite. If you think about it, its the same with our world, people who steal are usually rich (IRS, bankers, politicians, corporations etc) “The poorest is the one who needs a lot to live.” - Jose Mujica
Chapeau bas Chris. Well done...
nice
dear friend did you cycle alone in bhutan ? nice video.
Absolutely beautiful! Take care, all the best!
Cool vid Chris.
What are you doing now? Are you still living and traveling on your bike? Very inspirational.
God was with you ...you know that ????????????????
I love it! Hoping I get to do something like this one day..
Hi Chris, thanks for this amazing video. I am also a bike traveller but only on short periods of time, due to work and family. But journeys such as yours inspire me and make me dreaming. Maybe one day... Take care
