I hope you enjoy this one 😄
Is there seriously a separated cycle track the whole way? Heaven!!
This video captures the idea of making yourself the main character of your life. Life is so full of wonder, challenge, cold wet feet, dry socks and fun.
The screaming while riding in the rain voice over while Makari shows off what she's wearing is hilarious and such a vibe 🤣🤣🤣
Jackson you are such a champ for soldiering through and just being overall enthusiastic and positive the whole time. And singing 😊
Only true bikers ride in the cold, wind and rain in winter.
the thing that I enjoyed the most, is that not just it inspires me to have a better lifestyle, also i admire how real and how original the content is. its not like she is showing off that she is the only lady biker or the fastest, she just sharing the whole journey, with the all the struggles and difficulties. i truly enjoyed that because the content is original and legit. never dissapointed with ur content. support all the way from MY 🇲🇾
Awesome to see the transformation and evolution of someone who found cycling for herself. Stay on it, it is one of the best things in the world. Also try fishing for the psychological health, being in the nature and just enjoying yourself is the equivalent to being in the bike and pushing yourself for another mile
I love your style of video. Unpretentious, doesn't take it self seriously and above all fun. This is why it's so enjoyable to watch your channel.
Get all the way there, "Do you have the truck keys".... "I thought you had them"
Yay another biking one. Seriously impressed by how bike friendly the route looked to be though!
look at you, biker chick! really awesome to see you get into cycling these past months 🙌 biker wave from the Philippines 🌴
Don't ever lose the personality its absolutely amazing
I am totally amazed by the quality of the cycling roads. I would really enjoy seeing how much you would enjoy this ride in summer!
That bike route looked awesome! Truly beautiful. Shame about the rain, but maybe that's the sort of thing we need in life to stay humble ^_^. Thanks for the video!
It's a while since I was in Tofino. I don't remember an exclusive cycle track there, but I do remember the rain! ...oh and the sunshine! And, occasionally the bears.
I’ve been sick in bed this week and have been binging your videos tonight. I’m a pretty new subscriber and just want to say you’re one of the most enjoyable creators I’ve seen in a while. You’ve inspired me to actually live my life a bit more once I’m finally feeling well again. ❤️
All of your videos are great, you have a great personality and your happiness is infectious. Thanks for all your hard work ;-)
This is such a beautiful bike path.
More places should have bike paths.
More Jackson content please! love how you are together!
I usually really don't like vlogs of any kind, but for some reason you seem so entertainingly charming and honest throughout this ordeal (and your other bike experiences) - it's intoxicatingly motivational! Thanks for making these videos. :)
love it how you are starting out on a cheap second hand bike and just enjoying riding
The trick I use for warm feet, even if they get wet. Wool.
My checklist for if Im going biking in the wet and the cold
1 - Wool socks
2 - Clingfilm or aluminium foil wrapped around your feet before you put shoes on
3 - Something like a Flandrien Waterproof shoe cover. basically a waterproof sock you put on your shoes
Also since alot of cycling shoes have airholes on the bottom it can be beneficial to close those with something like a piece of tape
PS. Get this man a beer! (And a bike, you know he wants to)
You can buy dedicated overshoes/raincovers for cycling shoes rather than using foil or film, use some when I commute in the UK (where it is always wet) and they work a treat
Yes to wool socks! I can recommend the merino toe socks for dry hiking and cycling in crap conditions
Agree on the wool socks. For cold winter I wear double socks (thin liner then a long sock on the outer) Good advice on keeping the water out though. Squish squish socks no fun!
Awesome ride! Loved the scenery, commentary and music! 🎉
1:32 🤣 As someone who lives in a desert riding in the rain is something I tend to avoid (it usually includes lots of 🌩. But I do drink a lot of LMNT and recommend it highly!
Was waiting for a twist ending where you get to the truck and realize you've forgotten the keys.
I'm very happy you did another bicycle video! It's good that you have all these bicycle lanes there, it makes everything safer
The nature is so beautiful! I’d want to bike there so bad
3:07 "Very dangerous over short distances" 😂 Another great video. Thanks for taking us along for the ride
Im always looking forward to seeing you pop up on my feed. Sending love from Kelowna!! 🧡🫶
You make the best videos ! I start college tomorrow and this video is just what I needed to help me relax. Love your channel
hey thanks! And good luck! :)
I really enjoy these videos, and I use your style as inspiration on how to add some storylines to my own 👍🏽
Woot woot, you rock! Also i love and miss Ukee! Hope you had a great trip.
The outro was my favourite. Great job guys!!
You could get cycling overshoes to keep your feet dry and warm. A game changer!
Jacksons "Come on!" "Lets go" Makes him a born RUclipsr! Id love to see him in more videos, his energy is so fun!❤
1:37 you know the love is there lmao
My first serious encounter with cycling while wet was the ride home after nightshift (30km commute) where the weather report said rain by 10 but it was already pouring down when I left the building at 5. Had no proper rain gear at the time and just kind of had to get through it, took the road down to the first village in the drops and just shoveled the water straight into my face so I was drenched before I even made it 2k from work. Thankfully it was summer-ish and I had a layer more than I needed so I was moist as hell but not miserable
What I learned is once you get over the weird feeling it starts being fun again, I was riding the last piece of dirt track to my town like a mad man (probably could've been a PR but my route is missing the first 10% of the segment) and looked like I had shit myself when I got home because my bike doesn't have fenders, was a great time, just had to mop the floor from the door to the washing machine before bed
Sitting here zoning out because of burnout. Saw your video was up and clicked it. Heard the first two seconds and ngl, already feeling a bit better. So thanks.
Looks amazing! ❤
We really appreciate your work ☺👍
A good day for swim! 🏊
Thank you! :)
That pants was a big help on the road so that the cars can see you but if you wanna get rid of it then buy a raincoat jacket for cycling with the same color
If cycle lanes in the UK looked like that I’d be out in any weather! But they don’t 🤦♀️. Love your videos ❤😊🤘
You aren’t wrong there! I want to emigrate to Canada, it looks like cycling utopia (even with the British style weather)
Great hangover cure 😅
I love your cycling videos! You're doing great! If there's one part of cycling I really don't like, it's riding in the rain. If you can enjoy that, you can enjoy any cycling! Even those hills. They do get easier.
cold feet in the winter are terrible. Aluminium foil under the insoles to block out air around the cleat connections plus overboots make a huge difference. just 1 or the other is mehh. it's a combo effect for sure!
Tofino looks beautiful. We'll be there at the end of Feb.
I love Tofino. Big up the MUP!
You need to end your pub crawls closer to home! Yowza!
Hi! Your channel is my new favorite thing to watch lately 😊❤ Have you shared what kind of cameras you use? If not would you? Thank you!
Loved seeing more of Jackson! And this bike route is so beautiful. Well done you guys!
an LMNT sponsor?! you’re the real deal now makari🤷♀️😎
Love your Videos soooooooo much. And it help me that my english goes better 🥰🫶🏻
Any thoughts on doing RSVP (Ride Seattle to Vancouver and Party) in August?
Where is this bike path? Not a fan of rain but the path looks amazing! I use LMNT too. It is perfect!
The "come on!" from Jackson was so funny 😂 Thank you for taking us along on your bike ride!
You're so lucky to love so close to Tofino!
I love your biking vids ❤🎉
LETS GOOO SHE POSTED AGAIN 🎉🎉🎉
Haha Jackson saying I am filming you women! 😂 What a fun soggy looking adventure
No rain can dampen your mood, love it
Watch this while on a stationary bike! it was really tough but we did it team!
When my dad had to get his new car he rode his bike a few hours away to pick it up. Could he have asked someone for a ride? of course but what fun would that be.
I used to WHINE when I'd see a hill coming up, and then after a really bad bike accident that took a few years to recover from I got back in the saddle and hills were nothing, hills were a welcome challenge. All it took was breaking my back and having to suffer through recovery to make me as psychologically strong as I needed to be to climb a hill without whining about it lol. Btw I'm impressed with the cycling infrastructure where you are!
I live in the same city as she does. People complain like heck about the bike paths, but they are *fantastic*. I’m so glad the city decided to invest in them. And they’re used by people! Not by me (yet), haha. But one day!
@@KayKayBayForever It's funny, since we already have a right to the road bike lanes don't actually exist for cyclists, they exist because many drivers don't want to tolerate cyclists on the roads we all share
As an Australian who used to work in Ucluelet a few years ago this was lovely to watch. you rode right past where i worked
oh yeah those camera shots were artsy AF!! 😂😂
Love the idea of riding out to pick it up rather than just getting a taxi or something! Jackson's enthusiasm is great! I'm not sure I would have been so keen :D However, I have a goal for this year to not let the weather stop me from doing things, and this is a great example of someone doing that!
I commute by bike a lot, especially through rainy Nova Scotia weather. I HIGHLY recommend investing in some shoe covers if you're going to bike in the rain in the future. They keep your feet dry and warm.
Being able to cycle from Tofino to Ucluelet on the ridiculously beautiful Vancouver Island, not at all jealous 😒 I’m liking your cycling videos, keep it up!
I am so glad I found this channel! within 3days I've watched all her videos and you have inspired me so much!! I love u
So happy to see you go from being scared to ride a bike to conquering adventures in the rain. Bikes are joy!
I've been cycling for 20 years. I still hate hills. 😅
Cant wait for Cycling kit merch
20k in the cold rain ain’t easy…Props to you Makari and Jackson !!! It’s been great getting to watch you progress. Keep on inspiring us and workin hard! Btw I loved the artistic water shots 😉
Cycling in the rain, in winter, proves you're a real cyclist. Wait. Does Canada even have a winter???
In the lower parts of BC, it often stays pretty temperate! Most of Canada is not so fortunate 😅 Go a bit north/east and suddenly it's a high of -23C/-10F for the day.
I'm in Kingston, Ontario which gets really soft winters and even here you won't be biking outside of maybe commuting downtown.
@@EstebanDVOit isn't even safe to bike in most places in Canada lol 😆 😂 🤣 😅 unless you want to die
I think Manitoba would like a word.
Quebec certainly gets winter.
Great work! Rain booties are useful, they won't keep your feet totally dry in a downpour but they can help keep the wind off them and help keep them warm.
Tell Jackson that his Caddyshack quote was not lost on your viewers! Pro tip: "spin" in lower/easier gears; especially when climbing. It's easier, and more efficient, and your bum will hurt less when you're done. You want to go aerobic vs anaerobic. Waterproof socks are great. Sealskins is a good choice.
That jersey though! by "Coffee & Cranks" did you mean "Caffeine & Cranks"? also, remember how you jokingly said that you wanted to bike more so that you can be "a hot lady that goes on long rides with her friends and stops for treats"? Looks like you can check that box!
Makari you just made my day, thank u sooo much
I saw this video as soon as I got ready for a really long trainer ride. Thanks for sharing your bike journey! It helps me try to approach my cycling challenges with as much joy as you!
Next challenge: NK Tegenwindfietsen (Dutch championships cycling into a headwind)
And for an even bigger challenge, any portion of a Tour de France route
Shoe covers will change your life 😆
This was fantastic! Felt your energy, your struggles, your stickwithitness all through your smiles…and cold, wet feet! Way to go! I felt like I was pedaling with you! Great editing. Great music. Great bike buddies! ❤
Amazing you were able to take a trail the whole way!
What camera are you using?
The one that is plug in on the back of your bike
the shots with that camera looks cool 😮
insta360!
so cool!! What an amazing views. And inspiring how you can stay so positive haha, I would be so grumpy halfway with all that rain and those hills!
3:42 profile pic for him, right there
I've been waiting for more bike videos! Love them!!!
I don't know if this was asked before, but do you use bike computer? What bike computer do you use? For me when I started biking 6 years ago, data from bike computer was very helpful to motivate me to ride faster, longer, and higher. 😁
And also that bike path was amazing, I wish we that kind of bike path here.
I had to laugh as I was seeing the “Welcome to Tofino”-sign.
We had unbelievable heavy rain while visiting Tofino a few years ago. I see a pattern 😅
So great you have the bike path too.
Yup. Not every ride is in beautiful sunny weather. But, always fun-ish😋
Glad to see you’re still hitting the road😊
1:31 I can't 🤣
I know, hey!!!
the ending clip of the sunny day hahaha love it
For a new (novice?) cyclist, your climbing technique while standing (aka “out of the saddle”) looks great! And good on ya for riding in the rain - that’s hardcore.
Thank you :')
Love to see new cycling content! neoprene shoe/toe covers are your best friend on cold rides.
Well done both of you :)
congrats for the energy and the smile !!!!! greetings from Belgium, Europe !!!!
Love it
Wish I had a cycle route like this where I live
Great video. Love that trail not riding in traffic. Bought the ELMNT love it
You have bike merch?
Oh, man...I was getting nervous just watching bike riding in the rain. I'm terrified of rain and cycling, OY! Glad you both rode safely. I'm also glad to see a cycling video again
Oh my goodness!! I love the bike tracks that you have! I don't have anything like that where I live. I live in the Blue Mountains of NSW in Australia and we often have rain similar to that (I'm not as brave as you and I don't ride in it if I can avoid it. It's also nowhere near as cold here as it is in Canada.) But wow, those bike trails... I'm in love!! We have a lot of hills where I live (in the mountains, go figure...), but I ride an e-bike, so I have it much easier than you do on an acoustic bike. Good on you!! I can practically feel the sense of warmth once you were cuddled up on the lounge. That must have felt really nice after being cold all day!
That bike route looks amazing, wow! Great video, as always
