I really like your laid back attitude. You make videos to share your life with us not for maximum views like a lot of other RUclipsrs! Happy to be one of your Patreons 😉
Be careful sleeping on trails like that. Even though motor vehicles aren't allowed doesn't mean they don't use them occasionally. I slept in the middle of the Ironhorse Trail in WA a few nights during my ride East. On the way back home I was sleeping maybe 10 feet off of the trail near Lake Easton and a car flew down the trail in the middle of the night and drove by again a few hours later.
Those cows are socialized to humans as there caregivers. They’ll follow you to the ends of the earth, thinking you will feed them lol. Another great vid Foresty! Thanks again.
Thanks for another great episode and sharing your journey. I’ve got Netflix, roku, Disney and Amazon Prime. But this channel makes brings the most joy.
Loving the vids, ForestyForest...a buddy and I got into bikepacking on fatbikes this year and instantly enjoyed the experience. Fantastic vids, man...you’re giving me all sorts of ideas for future adventures. Now I’ve just gotta quit my job and find a van! Following from the Far East...New Brunswick... 🇨🇦🙂🤙🚵♂️
When I started watching your bike trips years ago, I’d take screenshots of so many of the views you shared. I had to stop because I’d never get through the videos. Ha So many vistas you’ve taken in that I’m sure not many others have. I can’t thank you enough for sharing these.
New subscriber here. I usually don't subscribe to channels but yours is really RAW. I like your content man! No fancy editing effects and your not annoyingly eccentric. You a humble normal guy. Looking forward to watching your channel grow.
His comments about beer make it obvious he's Canadian. Pinedale Wyoming? What a beautiful little town. I wouldn't mind living there except in the winters, which are long and cold ss hell.
I believe the term you are looking for is "Tall Boys" instead of super huge cans. lol! And you're actually right, gas station beer (beer sold in gas stations) has a lower alcohol percentage than the same beer sold at a proper liquor store... it varies state to state, but it is true.
Your a Long Haired Bike Riding Hippy Freak! Be proud and keep on pedaling, that is when you do pedal. Its too bad you didnt spend more time in Grand Teton park, they have some excellent bike paths in the park.
9.12..... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👌 Farmer comes down the road to find all his cow stood randomly in the same field looking longingly into nothingness. 'Why are you all here?' 🤣🤣
I’ll admit, I’m jealous. I tolerate the city but love the country and small towns. Sometimes I wish I were a man. To have the freedom to experience life like this without being overly concerned about my safety and all the things that COULD happen to a woman traveling by herself in the backwoods. I guess I’ll just live vicariously through adventurers like you.
could have stopped at the Salvation Army by that shopping center for some free food I do stuff like that all the time right across the street from the Greyhound station and that statue of Mary on top of the hill the old man put up there
hehe i was about to write the same, Forestyforest is the best bike rider on youtube, fun and lovely :D i love him he's the best..and beutiful scenary in the video
A voice over for the cows would of been so funny! Hey buddy where you going? Take us with you! See these tags on our ears? They're gona turn us into hamburger! Mooooo! Please! Don't leave us here! Mooooo!
See you also got those great Keen sandals. No need pack another pair of shoes on a trip. How do you like your MSR tent? Thinking about getting that one over ths useless single wall I bought for this past summers tour.
That was a Goal Zero Nomad 7 Plus. 1st one I owned lasted two weeks, they sent me that replacement and it only lasted 2 months. They are junk. I'm on my third one now and waiting for it to break.
@@forestyforest Wow!... yeah I have heard some bad reviews about Goal Zero before. How about Voltaic Systems. voltaicsystems.com/solar-chargers-for-bicycle-touring/
You mean like why ride a bicycle instead of a dirt bike? Because a bicycle is the only vehicle that is allowed to go thru on most kind of trails. Its possible to link together amazing stuff instead of detouring around it. But I think if I won the lottery... I'd have a 4wd camper van that I could use as a base camp. And do smaller adventures from that.
Personally I always prefer bikes no petrol no real big costs for repairs it’s just far more fun and keeps you fit, motor bikes are just a pain and have to much power for lots of technical rides anyway.
I don't think I would ride the fatbike in it's current form from Alaska to Alberta. Maybe with a lighter wheelset and 26x3.5 tires. That would be a good size for most of North America. The huge wheels are great for riding the desert though. But I use to aim for 100km a day on the old touring bike, and I can still hit that on the fatbike. So maybe on gravel surfaces the fatbike is more efficient than narrow tires. It has more to do with the amount of weight you're hauling.
I have such respect for your tenacity. Your adventures provide vicarious pleasure and positive attitude adjustment for this 70-year-old Montana woman!

Thanks 👍
the cows following you made me grin 'we heard your were throwing out granola'
Don't know how I got here but I'm glad I did.

Watching the adventure from Texas. We just got home from an 11 day, 300 mile run through Missouri, Ohio and Pennsylvania.. it was quite fun!
Forestry forest: a walking salt block for cows and granola for mice!
Great videos. Really enjoying them. Can’t wait to see the rest of your trip. Thanks much for sharing.
Following from Scotland 🏴😉👋
have not been commenting on every vid but been watching all the vids, cool seeing the cattle following you
Could've taken those cows back to Canada. They loved you! Haha
Following from South Africa. Awesome vids, thanks v much. Wish i coming down that trail behind you. All the best.
Your bike touring videos are the best!
Great idea throwing out a handful of granola. I will try that next camping trip and the mice invade.
An amazing place, and so peaceful.
Beautiful videography!! Thanks for bringing us on your adventure, I definitely wouldn’t last an hour doing that.
Those cute cows! Thanks for taking us along for the ride. :)

Those trails are just beautiful.
Those cows were waiting for you to say something profound:-)
His comments about beer make it obvious he's Canadian.
Pinedale Wyoming? What a beautiful little town. I wouldn't mind living there except in the winters, which are long and cold ss hell.
R.I.p Mike hall from a Yorkshire brother.you might be gone,but thee isn't forgotten lad.😎
Nice job mate, I bet the skeeters were nasty by the swamp!
What sort of food do you carry? What’s the universal supply you can find at gas stations?
Granola anything. Protien, sodium, potassium.
I feel you on the beer situation, that sucks. those mosquitoes would have eaten me alive! Great tour, take care.
.love the adventure. thanks for sharing .
You are a rockstar in my book...🤘👍👍
minimalist, and good at it
following from brazil ... like like
Sempre tem um haha
awesome would love to do what your doing. Great stuff
I like the shorter version videos that you are using now. I watch the long ones too, but these are easy to chew.
Great adventure. See you next time.
Awesome series ! Thumbs up!
I love this guy!!
Hi from Germany 😎
Classic Forest, always pitching his tent in public.

I just got a fat tire bike. I really like these sequence shows. I hope your going to upload the next ones.
:-D Great videos. Binge watched all in one sitting!
thanks for the adventure. I felt like I was there with you.
9:17 what a crew!
The cows were so cute following you
Great vids my friend. I’m happy for you. One advice gear up your camera. Luv From Amsterdam 👍
Just living. I love it!
Your a Long Haired Bike Riding Hippy Freak! Be proud and keep on pedaling, that is when you do pedal. Its too bad you didnt spend more time in Grand Teton park, they have some excellent bike paths in the park.

There's a lot of women who decided to be a person and not a woman and are off experiencing new adventures!
Forest gump of bike world,,,,,
Great videos bro!
Nice reference to mike hall 👍
Looks those Cows are big fans … it’s their way of hitting the like button … I did Moooo…..
The Yellowstone tourist bizarreness must have seemed poingent.. after being solo for two weeks …!
Goodonyah mate
Ah man. So awesome
Mice go crazy in the autumn
Amazing
could have stopped at the Salvation Army by that shopping center for some free food I do stuff like that all the time right across the street from the Greyhound station and that statue of Mary on top of the hill the old man put up there
add cow-herding to the never ending list of things FF can do
Lol lmaf "here is 10 bucks" u need more than i do! Haha
hehe i was about to write the same, Forestyforest is the best bike rider on youtube, fun and lovely :D i love him he's the best..and beutiful scenary in the video

How do you like your MSR tent? Thinking about getting that one over ths useless single wall I bought for this past summers tour.
I am happy with the Freelite. It is on the narrow side, not much room for storing extra stuff inside. But there's storage outside under the vestibule.
You should get sponsored by a beer company
What is making that sound at 6:40 ? It sounds like a cross between a loon and a woodpecker.
Sandhill crane.
Thank you! I enjoyed the video BTW and I don't even own a bike, just a mountain unicycle. :)
You are the cow whisperer.
Ride Forest ride.
Thanks
Those cows were sweet. Made me glad I don't eat beef anymore. ✌
Hello my friend, enjoying your videos.
I saw your solar charger with the green frame edging. What type is it?
That was a Goal Zero Nomad 7 Plus. 1st one I owned lasted two weeks, they sent me that replacement and it only lasted 2 months. They are junk. I'm on my third one now and waiting for it to break.
@@forestyforest Wow!... yeah I have heard some bad reviews about Goal Zero before.
How about Voltaic Systems.

sorry for my English, I'm from Russia, I watch your channel, I really like your video, you're good, how many teeth on the front star?
3:08 local "responsible gun owners" have shot up the caution sign!
Those tall cans of beer are the worst!! Drink one on occasion so you know when you find a truly good beer.
What a journey! Should toss on a helmet.
Cow Pies make good trail snacks
What types of food do you pack and how do you find your way? I know maps but ob your phone or paper?
You're Amazingly Wonderful 💙🌱🤗
Be carefull of cattle folowing you especially if there is calfs as well as they can get protective and charge at you,cheerrs from Scotland
Yay!!
5:37 haha I couldnt agree more
I came, I saw, I up-voted.
👍
I like the camping, but don't understand the appeal of the fat bike. Could you explain why it's fun? I like motorcycles.
You mean like why ride a bicycle instead of a dirt bike? Because a bicycle is the only vehicle that is allowed to go thru on most kind of trails. Its possible to link together amazing stuff instead of detouring around it. But I think if I won the lottery... I'd have a 4wd camper van that I could use as a base camp.

That makes sense. I never thought about the trail access situation.
Personally I always prefer bikes no petrol no real big costs for repairs it’s just far more fun and keeps you fit, motor bikes are just a pain and have to much power for lots of technical rides anyway.
What no granola for cows ??
Surprised you have such a narrow saddle
Those weren't bats. Those were tommyknockers.
9.28 The gangs
Hey foresty. Do you find the fat bike way superior to say the bike you used 'Alaska to Alberta" 4 years back?
I don't think I would ride the fatbike in it's current form from Alaska to Alberta. Maybe with a lighter wheelset and 26x3.5 tires. That would be a good size for most of North America. The huge wheels are great for riding the desert though. But I use to aim for 100km a day on the old touring bike, and I can still hit that on the fatbike.
