Without a doubt the best bicycle touring channel on RUclips! Love the vibe, music, perspective, attitude, and adventure!!!!
Thanks a lot :) I appreciate that 🙏 trying my best to keep it up
Great Shots, amazing editing and the music score is awesome.
India is so crowded, loud and hectic, I don’t think I can handle it 😅 nice video Eric! Cheers from Norway 🇳🇴
exactly, not a dozen horses could drag me there, that is the oppostie of a holliday.....at least for me
Hahaha yeah it has taught me how to stay calm and handle stress I guess. But yes it’s exhausting if it’s too long :D
i love everything about your videos, pls continue forever ❤
Cannot stop watching! Addictive RUclips channel. We hosted a disabled cyclist a few years ago in Australia. Annette had ridden from Germany and we met her while we were camping. She was by far the most interesting and brave person I have ever met. She was on a recumbent bicycle. Followed her trip all the way back home via her photo blog. Then a little later had two more German cyclists Jen’s and Lisa stay with us. The Germans are just so great with this form of travel.
That’s so cool :) yes I guess we Germans love cycling touring :D great mode of transportation combined with travelling. Can’t get any better :)
Want to be strong like you Eric. You are someone with raw indomitable human spirit!
"....so....800 km to Dehli...." lol -- you're a classic charger - way to keep your head up & your spirits positive! Needed that example on a Monday!
Keep your head up Kurt :) 🤞
Alles was der Radtourist über Indien wissen möchte. Interessanter Bericht, immersive Aufnahmen, spannend zusammengeschnitten. Vielen Dank!❤
India is such chaos. You were a celebrity and an anomaly. Perfect.
Looking bicycle travelist chic atm haha. Love that rug
Excellent stuff. Love it.
The Tent with the mattress sounded super cool. Would love to have seen a pict. But I just tried to imagine it = )
Ciao Eric, danke für deine Videos, die für uns Anfänger sehr hilfsreich sind. Danke für's teilen deiner Erfahrungen mit der ganze Community! Grüße aus Südtirol-Italien und hoffe bald wieder von dir ein Video zu sehen
Good to see the real India again. Love your attitude to life's dilemas. An absorbing presentation, I've subscribed of course. Thanks for the upload and good luck
Wow! Beautiful filming and narration. What an epic journey. Thank you so much!
I’ve been travelling in that area (by bus and train) and I’d die from stress doing it on a bicycle. It’s a mad place. Power to you!
Exceptional bycicle traveling channel, please keep rolling 🙌
Thanks, will do 😊
Imagine being stranded in India on my own is like my worst personal nightmare. Love the video though. 😊
Great vid great attitude.....As wonderful as India is it aint easy....see you on the road sometime
Such a brave adventure! And really good video
Weiter so!! Suuper entspannter Dude ;)) lg aus Tirol
Ich hoffe der Rücken ist wieder besser.. tolle Folge, Indien ist einfach krass. Gute Reise weiterhin!
Jooo nach 3-4 Tagen war alles wieder gut 😊 Grüße
Awesome dude 🤘🏿
Love your videos bud it's made me want to start exploring
Classic India. Car stops and eight people jump out and start taking selfies with you 😂
Hallo Eric, ich habe gerade Deinen Kanal gefunden und werde mich mal durchkämpfen. Hier gleich zu Anfang mal ein Tip: die meisten Expresszüge sind ja ausgebucht. Du kannst aber immer ein General Ticket kaufen, mit dem Du in der untersten Klasse ohne Reservierung mitfahren kannst. Bei den Schaffnern kannst Du dann während der Fahrt upgraden und bekommst dann einen freien Platz zugewiesen. Wenn das alles nichts nützt, dann gehst Du mit dem Fahrrad ganz hinten zum Wagen des Bremsers. Wenn Du ihn freundlich bittest, dann läßt er Dich und das Fahrrad bei sich mitfahren. Klappt nicht immer, aber einen Versuch ist es wert.
Hmmmm interessant…falls ich nochmal in Indien mit einer ähnlichen Situation zu kämpfen habe, werde ich das mal so abchecken. Nur mit einem Rucksack ist das sicher kein Problem. Für mich persönlich hatte ich ja bereits schon ein Ticket gehabt aber das Fahrrad musste unbedingt als Gepäckstück abgegeben werden. Und da waren schon zu viele weiße Säcke mit irgendwelchen anderen Gütern:D
@@MONKEYON2WHEELS Hi Eric, bist Du noch in Indien, und wenn ja wo?
Your living a life that I dreaming always
India is crazy but is amazing
Big fan from ladakh
This was SUCH A NICE watch! Best from Mexico City
Loved, How people stopped you just to say hi.
😂😂
The guy is all over the places. He's in Varanasi, wanting to go to Rajasthan but pedals 800 kms to New Delhi to see Taj Mahal.
❤❤❤ Looking forward to new Episodes !
Also I think I could smell you from here 😂
That’s not unlikely…not sure how fast smell travels through air but by now it could have reached you 😂
Good Riddance india tour , Cheers from Malaysia
🔥🔥
kra§e performance, alter!❤ bit of helge, ya know... haha❤❤❤
Hahahaha you’re not the first one comparing me with helge :D
Love your stuff Eric! - where to next?? India is a trip eh.....I rode Shimla to Manali, Manali up to Leh in the Himalaya, Leh through to Srinagar, then back to Delhi, probably my best bike trip, incredible scenery and the enthusiasm of the people is suffocating at times. Look forward to the next movie :) - Take care, be safe.
Ahhh it probably super beautiful up there. Awesome trip!!! I‘m going down to Spain/Morocco during winter and next year I‘ll do another continental crossing. Alaska to Patagonia :)
@@MONKEYON2WHEELS OK - I have done both....Southern Spain and Morocco is very nice, although they are very aggressive in Morocco and they work hard for your $$, ofc, head for the Atlas Mountains. In 2018 / 19 I rode the entire American Continent. Think about starting in Tuktoyaktuk (Canada) and riding The Dempster Highway through to Dawson City rather than Alaska? The Dempster starts on the Arctic Ocean and the riding is incredible...loads of small towns and communities to resupply from. You can fly in to Inuvik as the closest airport. I have always found Canada much more agreeable than the USA which s pretty fcked up imo these days. Consider the GDMBR route through the USA! - Highly recommend for an alternative back country route through the USA :)
Interesting video, do you carry the box for your bike with you ? Look forward tom more travels, stay safe.
No the box I would get at a local bike shop when it’s needed :) cheers
Hello, what camera do you use in 3:33?
Nikon Z6 :)
Please come to Kerala... On your next trip...
Love from 🇮🇳
🙏🙏🙏
India is not on my plan for near future but who know what happens in the future. Kerala is probably much different than UP :)
❤🎵
Great video Eric, looking forward to your book?
Hahaha I have been thinking about making one but don’t know when I’ll find time and motivation to do it…but yes I should do it :)

Hi, I just saw this new post!!
I wish I had a chance to meet you!!
If you ever plan to visit India again do drop me an inbox, i would love to show you around!!
Ấn Độ có sức hút kỳ lạ
This video will get more than million views in no time...
How is your Arkel kit holding up??
So the orcas are build like a tank!!! Zero issues with them and I think they’ll work perfectly until I retire from cycle touring (which hopefully will be faaaar in the future) the dolphins in the back are less tough (have a different material and internal coating) and have these external pockets which I actually don’t need. Unfortunately I weren’t as waterproof anymore at some point. So 6/10 for the Dolphins and 11/10 for the orcas. Hope that helps :)
Have you been cycling to Indonesia?
No unfortunately I never ended up getting there…but who knows what long term future holds up :)
Man sieht hört riecht sich Amigo,.🍻🦧
Hello... My name is Eri and I just watched your videos and find it really interesting and fun. I'm also making a video but it's just hard for me to find great music for it. You mention in your video you make your own musics. Could you tell me how can I use your music for my video background in the future? Thanks.
Can you shoot me a message via IG? :)
@@MONKEYON2WHEELS sure
Try riding around the globe without cash just ask❣️
That would be certainly possible because mostly people are kind and welcoming but I‘d feel bad to ask people for it when it’s a really hard in countries like India to earn even enough for them to survive and feed the family.
If you can...please come to west Bengal 😊
I already left India ✌️maybe someday in life :)
@@MONKEYON2WHEELS oh... ok 👍 next time ⏲️ 😊
Warst du dieses Jahr nochmal in Indien? Was ein Horror. Ich wäre als Hochsensible absolut überfordert mit der Masse an Menschen und Geräuschen. Du tust so als wäre es das normalste der Welt da durch zu fahren.
Ja von Ende November bis Mitte Januar :) Ja der Sound und die Menge an Menschen ist schon nicht ohne. Man gewöhnt sich daran aber es bleibt trotzdem mental anstrengend 😁
Warum ziehst du denn das komplette Tretlager raus, anstatt nur die Pedalen ab zu schrauben?
Das Tretlager hatte ich drin gelassen, aber die Kurbelarme abgemacht. Da ich beim Verpacken die Laufräder entfernen musste, hätte sonst das gesamte Rahmengewicht auf dem Zahnkranz gesessen und in kürzester Zeit der sich dann durch den Karton gebohrt :D
Please visit Chandigarh and contact I wish to host you
I already left India. Maybe sometime in the future I’d return to see the south but it’s not on my plan in near future. Cheers and thanks for the offer :)
P r o m o s m 🤗
10 dollars is 800 Indian money India still cheap i see
Yes it’s still very affordable from the western perspective.
