Having a backyard adventure while signing my first book, the Backyard adventurer

- When signing 1812 pre-sold copies of my book The Backyard Adventurer, I decided to have a backyard adventure while doing it. Synergy? Ironic? Nah, just a bloody good idea, Beau. Nothing fancy or weird, just public transport, my wifes bike, and a bad coffee in a dry creek bed. It turns out, signing that many books in six hours is hard.

G'day folks, 'The Backyard Adventurer' is now available internationally and as an audio book. Thanks to everyone who's patiently waited. Goodonyas.
Did you narrate the book? If so, awesome - we'd love to hear your thoughts on that process too ^_^
Just got the audio book cant wait to listen.
@@import67 tell us if it's him narrating
@@jacobortega2786 He does narrate it himself.
Where can I get it in the US?
I own that "ran out of ink" :D
Great read, thanks Beau.
I came to the comments looking to see if the owner of that book spoke up! Happy Holidays!!
I saw the Tea copy
The fact the lines of text are missing is AMAZING. Now, as everyone completes the book with their own hands, everyone will have a unique copy.
Couldn’t have planned it better.
Goodonya for that inspirational observation...
I checked my book immediately, but the lines were already there (on the previous page). A little bit sad 'cause i kinda looked forward to reading these handwritten lines. haha.
EDIT: I wrote them in a second time, because why the **** not.
this comment is the reason why i like not only Beau himself but his auditory as well XD
Don't be sad it's only 10 minutes. Be happy you can rewatch it 6 times in an hour
Thanks for the inspiring words, _SwampNuts_
I feel like the fake verified tick actually worked lol
This is the kind of energy the world needs
a bit of Beau was just what I needed on a crappy day, might not watch it for the full hour, but will definitely have a second viewing.
New challenge, run a mile everytime you finish it for 24h 😆
A Beau notification is like no other, rarely are we graced with such presence
Spot on 🤘
As good as one from Ed March
I've lived in north east Victoria for most of my life and been all over the world and hardly seen what my area has to offer. In the last 5 years though I have done so many backyard adventures like kayaking an entire river and seeing things for the first time that are 5 minutes from where I live and I love it! Thanks the the inspiration Beau.
9:33 the missing lines 10:03
That part by the way gave me the biggest smile and I think it's really good that the missing lines get told here in the video instead of the book and that they have to be written by the reader. It's somewhat a full circle including the viewer into the journey.
Picked up a copy, but I will probably end up listening to the audiobook anyway just to get your narration!
Is there an audiobook?
Beau opening a parcel with an axe is the most Beau-ish thing I've ever seen
As one of the lucky 1812 who received a signed book, judging by the signature I'd got I think it was somewhere in the first few hours mark of your signing session. Blue pen, a simple "Thanks! Beau Miles" without any drawings created out of the boredom that can come from repetition. I love to think about the autonomous movement of the hands and mind as you wrote out the simple messages, one after another- after another. Love it. Thanks Beau!
Me too!
Grabbed my copy, to write in the missing lines, to be a part of a collective, at this specific point in time... turned to page 97, and found the words I was supposed to ink back into the book, looking straight back at me. I've never felt so robbed, to have something that wasn't defective... 😂😂
my family is defective
Just wanted to say that I just finished the audiobook. Even though I've seen all of your films, listening to your book during my morning walks in solitude was a fantastic experience. The storytelling is out of this world. Lost my passion for filmmaking and writing but because of your amazing storytelling I picked up my pen and notebook again today. Thanks Beau, all the best to you and your family.
Consider these comments our signatures to you Beau. Your authentic and positive outlook on life is quite inspiring. 😀🛶🍃
finishing off wine at 7am in a ditch....one of life's underrated pleasures!
10/10 on the video title, 11/10 opening the box with an axe.
10:17 “It’s probably the best line I’ve ever written and it was left out of the book.”
…That’s rough buddy.
I don’t think any one person has inspired me be more bold and adventurous than Beau has.
acknowledging an error your own book then reversing the sentiment and creating an activity that brings you closer to your audience is fantastic and much appreciated!
best line i ever written & it was left out the book
There the life rules beau - we want you back
"it's just a bloody good idea Beau, get on with it" love it, classic Beau.
If there's one man who can turn random imperfections into interest and entertainment, it's this red-headed Aussie. Thanks, Beau. The day is just that bit better for this video.
Just added my extra lines in! I think it’s pretty cool to have a book that you can add a piece of the story into
"Do Something intense enough to stop thinking about anything other than what you're doing" is some serious wisdom Beauy, keep on keeping on! Loving it
yes yes, so true
Congrats on the book Beau!
Probably all of the people that bought these books you signed you know via youtube, I find it the epiphany of "you", that you use this platform to correct the mistake.
Not only that, it gives it an extra dimension to have people add the lines (in their own handwriting) to complete the book!
I applaud you for what you do!
It's a good week when Beau Miles and Ed Pratt post videos
Only Beau could make drinking coffee in a ditch look so tempting.
Ahhh, it's a fine morning for some coffee and a Beau video. Today will be a good day 😊
I don't think I could possibly find you any more amusing and likeable then I already do. It makes me proud to be an Aussie girl stumbling around the country in odd socks with an already slightly battered copy of The Backyard Adventure in the backpack.
I was also quite devastated to find that my copy did in fact already have that missed line in it. So I underlined it in pen instead.
@@gabriellewilkie6634 bummer...you got a fixed copy! And thanks for the kind words mate. Blush. Goodonya and I reckon I like you two. Best
Wow, you have a lovely wife and child, you're truly blessed.
The fact that you have to finish writing chapter 2 with your own biro is bloody awesome!
only Beau could say 'we left you a spot to write it in' in such a casual manner that actually makes you want to write in a brand new book.
Beau might be the most underrated guy on this platform
If anything Beau, the missed section of the book has made us more connected to the story, and to your message. In a way, we have all written a part of your book!
Mate - you continually shine light onto the joy we need to see and embrace in life. Thanks and best wishes to you
Flipping “straying too far from the highway” to “straying too close to the highway” is a beautiful window into the weirdness Beauman. Good stuff 🚗
Mr. Miles, you are an inspiration - what a spirit, full respect Sir.
I like the one where you ate 1 million beans, bean man.
Right On Dude!! Your living life Freely! I Love your channel.
I couldn't find a good way of putting into words how much i appreciate Beau existing and sharing his beautiful mind with all of us, so i just wrote this. Thanks Beau!
Just bought the audio book
And put in an order for the paperback as well.
Wish we’d had teachers like Beau when we were young ‘uns.
But I’ve recalibrated how I go ultra riding with the bike since coming across Beau.
And fir that I’m eternally grateful.
Never to old to learn 🚜🚴🏼🤘🍀
Congratulations on the book Beau! Feel you on the proof reading. We had a similar experience recently.
THOSE MISSING LINES!!!!!!!! Made my day hearing what they were. Been thinking about them ever since reading the book.
I'm a bit dissapointed that i didnt a get a smiley face, gumleaf or kayak in my book. Love the book and your videos Beau.
A Beau film makes me love the world more!
Beau has uploaded = 2021 has been saved 🔥🔥🔥
1812...that's some overture!! A canon devoid of cannon! Onya Beau!! Luvyawork!
Beau, you are such an inspiration! Every time you post a video I think about how many options and choices I have about the way to live my life. Thank you!
The Samurai !!!!!!!!
Seiko Samurai that is, pure class
Thanks Beau. Just brought ya book. You have inspired this kiwi to get out for some backyard adventures. You're a gem of a human.
Impressive as usual. What is admirable here is that Beau is all packed with his own food, coffee/tea cups and utensils etc even when those are available around.
Bloody love being 1 of the 1812 who got their books signed after you slept in a ditch. I'm listening to the audiobook at the moment, and it's fantastic. Congratulations on a ripper book, mate.
Beau .... you make life seem like we are doing it all wrong ... but we are and the way to describe it changes my outlook and how we see ourselves on this little round planet
Now we need the audio book in all the Aussie libraries and beyond!
Hahaaaaa that missing 3 lines messed me up for a good ten minutes so cheers Beau for throwing some genuine chaos in for free. Five rubber chickens 🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔
Proofreading... often overlooked but still very necessary!
Crack up!
Beau Frickin' Miles - absolute legend.
Beau is a legend yet he is alive.
Best advertisment of a book i've ever seen!
I remember sleeping in a ditch in an orchard while hitchhiking through Spain. It got me out of sight and was perfect I thought. Until at 2am I heard a gurgling noise :)
your words are quarky and thats great, individuality isn't cookie cutter its more like a ball of mud hitting a wall. Every strike creates a different pattern!
I'm sure i saw you sign my book - thanks Beau you bloody legend!
You can't help but like this fella congratulations on the book
Ace mate. Thank you for the early signed book,and those 3 missing lines. Keep adventuring.
These video's are such treasures. Never stop -
I watch you. Not at the same day ,or week. But when is possible . Somehow i need the stories from down under. The positive, the simple. That is reason i order your book. Thank's. I love it. I Know!!!
Its a good day when this gent uploads a new video!
Just finished reading your book Beau! I loved it! Made me laugh, made me smile, made me think. It's one part adventure book and another part how-to-adventure book generously sprinkled with your philosophies. You've inspired me to get stranded by the side of the road in the middle of the night and sleep in a nook somewhere. :)
Beau reminds me of the book The lost thing by Shaun Tan, in the book everyone is in a cookie cutter society and only one person is noticing all the weird and wonderful things around them, that person is Beau, he is such a down to earth person!
Nothing like a good book and a Vanilla Chai Tea
Beau's back baby!!!! Whoop whoop!!! Legend!!!!
Once again.. absolutely brilliant.
You had me at "its just a bloody good idea" :D
Just ordered mine...can't wait for some backyard dreaming, I mean adventuring.
"and that was the best line in the book"..... priceless
Bloody good read thanks Beau gave me lots to think about
Thanks mate, great read. Cool to see our signed copies continue the adventure.
I loved that film. I love all your films. Here's to more adventures!!
The only thing that will reduce the sales of the paperback is that you narrated the audio book yourself!! 8 hours of beau is good for the soul
"Is that Alanis Morissette? That's irony!" Bro you kill me every time
I find my self narrating my life in your voice. Thanks for the great content and mind progressive ideas!
I love you man… you’re hilarious, you having us help you finish your book,sure man….why not
By far my favorite RUclips channel. Thanks Beau
I've never been more irritated by youtubes ads when all I wanna do is watch some of Beau Miles' video gold!!!!
Install adblock and you'll never have to watch youtube ads again. Buy the book if you want Beau to get some actual money - the payment the youtuber gets per ad is negligible on small channels.
Let the ad run and support your favorite youtubers! Its a small sacrifice. If everyone was like peglor, youtube wouldnt exist.
A little disappointed that my signed copy didn't come with a spot of blood, but from the looks of your face in that warehouse, there's bound to be some dried sweat from a furrowed brow on there somewhere! Love your work, love your book, keep on adventuring!
I think it's perfect that the lines are missing. When we write them in, they'll forever be remembered. Loving it so far! Cheers.
Beau Miles bikepacking, Surely the start of book no.2 :-)
Pencilled it in - it's complete now. Thanks Beau!
What a legend you are
Bloody amazing little film, now I want the book.
Your wife has your same melody speech pattern. Good on ya both. She’s a keeper.
I literally air punched seeing this in my subs. Never done that before.. Congrats.
The book was really good greetings from Germany. Happy to have one that is signed. Keep up the awesome work Mate 👍👍
Beau Miles to me is hands down the best youtuber on this platform and a big inspiration. The only youtuber I have bell notifications for!
I liked it before I LOOKED at it. Funny fecker and insanely inspirational.
I added the lines to my kindle with a marker. It's a good job they are great lines because now they are on every page I read.
Oh my gosh, this man is incredible. The way he story tells is perfect. The ending is priceless
So glad you got the books printed here in Australia.
I absolutely love the fact that those lines were missing! Put a huge smile on my face, don't know why. It just screams 'Beau' in a really good fascinating way. Adding an extra quirk where we add our own lines really gives you a sense of attachment.
Haha Well done, Beau. What a task!
Don’t suppose you mind walking to Coffs Harbour to sign my book?
Only a few k’s from Jindivick mate…
On another note, brilliant book, easy to read. I literally felt like I was having a beer with you at a bar and you were just talking shop. Sensational.
