The Adventure Dispatch: Ultra Romance
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 май 2016
- Deep in the remote wild of New England lies an enigmatic figure, with piercing eyes like the Night's King, to which many names are attributed. Boltar Benedict, Poppi, Juan Cool Romance, Turbo Romance-it's all really beside the point, as it's his message that's truly important. It's a tale told through unbridled, unpretentious adventure. No, he doesn't ride for Insta-likes, he's spearheading a movement of living simply and getting out in nature. And even if you're not daring enough to tromp through the bush to find him, you're still invited along for the ride.
Music:
“Ice in the Spring," by Yellow Eyes
“Been All Around this World," by Six Dollar String Band
Production:
Director: Warren Kommers
Producer: AVERingenuity

Still one of the best videos on the internet 🙌
Black metal + bikepacking = awesomeness
Blackpacking. :P
Benedict is the man! Definitely a big influence on bringing adventure biking to the forefront of cycling. Great video plus the black metal sound track? Frickin awesome!
Sunny day - Shorts
Cold night - Shorts
Winter and snow - Shorts
I love black metal and biking.
me too
Hahahah.... I blast slayer and Sepultura on a Bluetooth speaker while riding
There is so much "perfect" going on in the imagery I almost can't stand it 😍 his hair, the woods, fire, food, music and then the snow at the end! Lovely.
This guy looks so young, yet his hairs are grey. I think it's a testament that this type of lifestyle keeps you young, that is not the face of a stressed man. Unreal! ❤
Metal and cycling fit perfect together! I listen to stuff like that and love it. THANK GOD IT IS A BIT WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT TO THOSE 1000S OTHERS OF VIDEOS.
I like these videos that reach everyone as opposed to just aero, aero, aero. Well done!
But he has Aerotech gloves on! But I also like the departure of competitive cycling in this series. Cycling for the everyman.
Agreed. There are so many aspects to riding a bike and often we only see 1
Shocked in the best way possible hearing black metal in a bike add, awesome!
I like this simple life, you don't have to think about anything else, that you wake up in the morning feeling relaxed, that you are relaxed, that you are relaxed
black metal soundtrack on a corporate made video.... interesting....
Because he rides the custom Specialized blackmetal Awol
Haha, black metal is just meant for entertainment purposes, you know right? Serves the capital just as the brands, it’s not even art dude
@@polyushkopole5292of course it's human artifice, the root of the abbreviation "art"
Love the last shot, how the climbing road and the hill makes an 'S'! Great stuff all-round!
the STAR IS born
this was unbelievably awesome!
Beautiful video. Love what the Yellow eye tunes did to the mood. Nice pick!
If you want to live simply in the nature, there's nothing better than the latest expensive bike tech.
Haha!
lol yeah i know right
Don't forget to make it look like it's 12 years older by paying more for chrome wheels and cranks
Tom Fox Yes! haha
Is that bike a specialized awol?
Ditch the bike and walk/hike truly simplistic
Absolutely loving the Adventure Dispatch videos. If you were to go international and get visual stories from others around the world that would be sick!
I love this fucking video
A work of art on every level
Awesome short film, and a terrific person it would seem :)
Agree about the bike, on of the few good inventions that can help man rather than destroy us. Add sailboat to that as well and we have the two perfect vehicles to take us anyway any time.
"by take care of myself, the day will take of me"
3:00... inspires a hearty laugh. Hello friend!
More of this kind of videos please.
super epic! i love this!
Esse video mudou mais meu conceito sobre a bike! Muito bom! Esse cara sabe viver!
This made me smile broadly
Fabulous inspirational short film
Fantastic!
Excellent!
And the bike is an AWOL... isnt it. A much regrettably discontinued bike that is a
legend even in Italy and of which I so happily managed to grab one of the very last specimens!
In Italy we have a saying... "you don't don't ever sell your Awol"... true story 😌.
Hope you'll go back on full steel some day soon!
This is the spirit that Specialized should uphold, not the pursuit of Roubaix Cafe, Epic Design etc. for infringement of imaginary copyright.
That was a great video. Bravo. Bravo.
This is hilarious! Great vid!
wow ultra!!! i read about you in my news paper in india. & then i become a fan of you & your life style. you are an amazing guy. its good that i found you in google & youtube. nice..
Two wheels set him free, Wind whispers tales of open road, Ron's heart takes the lead.
a cemetery, fire (albiet controlled), nature and a cabin. All we need is some corpse paint to go alongside this music.
the first time i ever wanted to dive in
Goooood ;) cheers
Game-winning soundtrack right there
Que excelente Fondo la 🚲 te brinda esa libertad inigualable y la pasión por la Naturaleza
Never tried Black Metal + Cycling combination after all these years i'll try it.,
Imma gonna have to get me some shorts like that. Epic.
Liking Viking Biking.
very good,,!
So agree with what you say, simple is best and the bike is perfect for that
Great attitude. Love the canvas bags and the whole Scando-retro vibe.
✌
just sad, that Specialized doesn't build reliable bikes anymore. I cracked a Diverge Frame after 6000km, got a replacement and after just a bit over 2000km the frame starts creaking again. I wonder how long it will take until it's also trash. As a replacement, I've ordered a custom steel frame. I just hope my Diverge lasts until it gets here.
The Diverge was my 5th and last Specialized.
Now I know where Sean Conway gets his look
Run Forest run! 😁
legend
Great............ :)
Goddamit! Six years ago. Where was I in my cycling life that such a lifestyle and genre exists. Excuse me I have to set my Rapha gear on fire.
Yaaaay ! Free your mind, Ride your Bike and live !
What model is the best to ride an Ultra on road?
Which bike was used in the movie? Thank you
A simple life upon a simple bike is the key
Man
On
Bike
Awesome
What an amazing person.
Into the wild
You guys should make a video what's faster a GoPro hero 4 on your bike your chest or helmet
it only took sixteen viewings to see the street sign
Awesome satire!
Was that a photo of ?Matthew McConaughey? Love it. Hey Ultra I’m in Western mass let’s go for a ride sometime, I’d love to buy you a beer and learn more.
very hipster, but still great video. Absolute truth: bicycle is the best invention. Put humanity forward with minimal risk.
I wouldn't day his a hipster more of a hippy so to speack
I'm now in an Ultra Bromance.
Awesome video! What kind of budget are you talking about here?
Once you have your bike, a high quality tent and equipment, and clothing, all you really need to get is food. That is why he said he spends a lot of money on food.
damn where is that cabin?!
Matthew McConaughey? 2:50
Hansthehorrible I made that print for him and had it laminated. I presented it to him on a ride up in Vermont a few years ago and I kid you not, I've never seen someone more genuinely excited, not even a child on Christmas morning. true story.
this video is proof that you can blend nature with black metal! Hail!
🤘
nice-:)
i love thats bags, front and rear. Where could i get ones ??
Carradice
awesome Charles Manson
It's clever marketing from this chap
yellow eyes -- best black metal band out of new england
Black metal and biking!
The new Thoreau.
Anyone know how thick these tires are?
nuts!
im not sure what to think - can someone tell me what i should be thinking - im confused
cool
What bike is he riding?
The music is cool but the first half of the video definitely felt a little bit all over the place as a result. Super cool set up though.... and is that picture of Matthew Mcconaughey?
Yes indeed that's Matthew!!
agree, Poppi's tone and mantra and even the editing did not jive with that sound.
anyone know the brand of shoes he is wearing? 0:10s.
Ok this dude is fuckin awesome
Great video! I have a Specialized TriCross that I can't wait to ride after I recover from knee surgery.
👍
"Hay que molar"
Anyone know where in New England this is?
what bike was he riding?
I like his philosophy. I need to know where I can get those stainless steel water bottles?
Thanks for the reply. I believe that the standard size water bottle for bicycles is 24 ounces. And of course the water bottle cage will only fit a 24 ounce bottle as well. So if I wanted to purchase a 40 ounce bottle from Klean Kanteen I would need to find a source for the larger water bottle cage for attaching to my bicycle. Any ideas?
David Branscome velo orange mojave bottle cages and kleen kanteens
Whats the front rack he is using?
I love this doofus.
he has a youtube channel
nice empty road , no vehicular traffic , perfect place to bike
I can always get behind people who are unapologetic about being themselves, keep on ridin' Poppi.
What bike is that?
why are some people disliking this?
Quote : one of the few human inventions that can actually help humans , as opposed put them forward just to set them back. Or something close to what he said. That's deep...
Specialized sponsored
very good parody
