Your camera work, background scores, and editing have equally well complemented the nature expedition. Fabulous! Please share more on your camera setups, editing software, and thought process.
Looks really beautiful. Slovenia is a beautiful country :)
Absolutely agree. Great trails, too!
OMG, every scene is a picture-perfect postcard; what a beautiful country. Now you got me thinking. Thanks for the wonderful video.
You’re welcome, William!
Awesome Awesome👍👍 footages guys!! 💕 Slovenia is a hidden jam for sure and glad that you've enjoyed it. 😊🙏🙏😊
Thanks! Can’t wait to show you the trips of 2022!
슬로베니아도 너무나 멋진 나라네요~
Your videos are always so magical to watch.
Thanx for beatiful video of my country!!! Best regards, Edvard.
You’re welcome, Edvard! Episode 3 coming Friday 👍🏼
Unbelievably beautiful journey.
Slovenia is so beutifall country, ajvar is made in Serbia "Smoki" too. Smoki is not helty at all... try to avoid. nice trip greetings from Serbia.
I knew it wouldn’t be healthy, but a snack like that after some solid climbing… unmissable 😁
Ajvar is made troughout the former Yugoslavia, and it is originally Macedonian...
Almost wanted to grab a cookie when Belén offered you one, haha! It's amazing to see what you guys have been up to :) Really beautiful shots!
Thanks Nina! Those cookies were pretty tasty 😋 Next episode coming Friday!
Hi Tristan, another awesome adventure through your eyes. Slovenia has the majestic beauty but you have the keen eye for composing the perfect picture. I thoroughly enjoyed that. Panoramic views,misty switchbacks, your video took me on a ride through paradise. Thank you,thank you!
I’m flattered! Thanks for taking the time to tell me your thoughts!
Des super voyage merci à vous 😊😊
Great movies! You motivated me, even I am Slovenian and I was biking that routes few times. I have to do it again! There is just one minor thing!?
There is stricly prohibited to camp in Triglav national park (outside dedicated camping places, overnight)! You can be punished with a fairly high fine! There was a case where the boys post a movie about their adventure on utube and later received a greeting in the form of an “invoice”.
In general, Slovenes very rarely camp outside official campsites.
Thanks for your comment, Tomaz! I agree that camping in an official campsite is better than outside of one while cycling in Slovenia. In our case, we were often too slow to make it to a campsite due to filming our ride, which is why we wild camped a fair bit. It’s a practice that’s very normal in the worldwide bike travel community and I believe anyone viewing these videos is capable enough to make their own well informed decisions about wild camping, in Slovenia or elsewhere.
You made such a beautiful film!
Great videos Tristan and I enjoyed listening to your interview on ‘Bike Life.’
Thanks for the kind words, Dermot! Hope you’ll enjoy the ones to come.
Hola pareja. Que maravilla disfrutar de vuestros viajes a través de esos magníficos vídeos que realizais. Gracias por compartir. Un fuerte abrazo desde Sevilla.
Gracias a ti!
Me encantan vuestros videos, aunque no entiendo el idioma. Eslovenia parece muy bonito.Gracias por vuestros videos
Gracias a ti!
The scenic beauty in this video of Slovenia seems to me to equal Norway.glk
Lindas imagens,parabéns pelo canal
Beautiful shots and music to accompany them! Helping me take a little imaginary bike trip before work. Have you posted the recipes for what you make on this trip or others anywhere? A lot of what you make looks pretty good!
Thanks Mark! Great to hear you enjoy these before work. I don’t have the recipes anywhere for now, although we did share 5 of our favorite one pan meals in our book Bike Life, which you’ll be able to find at your (online) book shop!
Nice, I need 2.5 h with my road bike to Kranjska gora from my home.
Beautifully shot. Still feel you would massively decrease the time you spend setting up shots if you got an action cam, or two, such as a Go-Pro and or Insta 360. Would also add more variety of shots as well especially of actually riding e.g. descents without having to run back the whole time to get your camera for just a few seconds of footage of riding quickly down a pass or switchbacks. Still great shots though. This area of Slovenia looks breathtakingly beautiful. To be continued .........
Thanks for the feedback once again, Alex! I’m really liking my new style and don’t want to add more complexity / luggage / chargers at the moment as it would be another camera and SS card to manage. There’s too many for my taste already. Hopefully you’ll keep enjoying what’s to come-episode 3 of the West Loop will go live on Friday!
@@tristanbogaard I would like to say that I really like your new style of shooting. without Gopro and Drones, the video looks more atmospheric. it turns out that it is better to immerse yourself in what is happening in the video. very beautiful frames, beautiful colors and good sound. Please tell me, what equipment did you start using for filming in Slovenia? what kind of camera, lenses and microphone?
So, Wildcamping is no Problem at the westlooo? Thx
Wild camping, legally, is always a problem. Likewise, Slovenia has strict laws on it and patrols to make sure people don’t camp out near the Soča River, for example. Be careful, leave no trace and only pitch for the nightly hours.
@@tristanbogaard I did not google if its legal at all, thx for the reply, good to know
5:10 in this region i know almost every 🌳 😉😉😉
Hi Tristan, looking to do this route in summer - do you think it would be possible to complete on gravel bike with ~35-40 mm tires? What’s the width of your tires that you used? Cheers
Hey Matt! You could, but I’d recommend riding it a little wider on 47mm tires, which is what we used there. There’s lots of asphalt though, and if you’re ok with 35-40mm on bumpy trails and potentially walking a some stretches, so you should be ok if your frame or fork doesn’t allow for more width.
4:08 time where nice picture
Krnica near Kranjska gora
Where did you buy those small white containers for your spices?
In an outdoor shop in Amsterdam! They should be easy to find it outdoor-oriented shops.
Hey!
Which month did You ride Slovenia?
Hi Paweł! We rode through Slovenia in late July. It’s a great month to ride because of the weather we had but I’d say June is better due to lower levels of tourism.
