- I randomly met "Max le bourlingueur" (Max the adventurer) in France in June 2022. Max is Belgian and has tried different setups before settling on the current trike system. He now lives permanently in his bike-drawn caravan, the first year of 10 years that he's planning to do so. He agreed to let me film him, as part of his effort to promote cyclotourism and cyclo-nomadism. Enjoy the video and if you'd like to tip and support Max in his journey, feel free to donate by clicking on the "❤️ Thanks" button right below the video. Thank you for watching!

This is exactly the way I want to live my life! Kindred spirits! Much respect and love!
Those are probably the happiest dogs on the planet!
No, they were not quite happy at that stage, they were exhausted, it was obvious for anyone with eyes .
As an owner of several dogs in my life, beautiful creatures with very short lifespan compared to us, I can read their body language because I lost several to old age.💔🖤
The life of a dog owner is cruel, one always watches them go first…🙁
As they age, when they get old they become tired and when returning home from a regular walk they just sleep: at first, only for one hour or so but in few months for longer hours after each walk.
One day, they won’t be as happy as before when they are told it’s the daily walk-time, they won’t run to the door anymore or bring the leash themselves and another day in not such a distant future, they will want to return home after walking half or less the usual distance and if you insist they continue, they will walk back towards home by themselves for a few good meters; one day they will simply lay down right there in the street to rest or simply return by themselves towards home watching you with a guilty expression on their kind face, but still…
I know old dogs, I had about 5.
One ends up taking them till the end of the street and back - you end up taking them to the park by car and they’ll be grateful for that.
They are just like people, get old and have arthritis and hip problems and spine problems and teeth problems (they loose some of their teeth slowly one by one some breeds) and heart problems.
All these happen after 8-9-10 years of age or earlier, depending on the breed.
They even turn gray, I’m not kidding. No matter what colour their coat is, except for the white ones, when they are old you know because the hairs on their muzzle turn slowly gray then totally white.
Trust me, I know dogs and their exact needs and issues.
Everything you said is true. And remember those dogs are huskys or Malamutes bred to pull and run long distances in the snow. I expect heat is the more harmful thing for them and it is evident they get too much of that!
What a lovely concept and great set up. He seems happy and in harmony with himself and his life style. That he kept the drawings of the kids he worked with was touching. He’s a kind soul. Wish him the best of luck on his adventure.
Absolutely! He was also very approachable, even when he was having his late lunch with a mere sandwich.
Taking your time to travel with your dogs, beautiful experience 👍
It really seems to be!
Wow! That little cabin is awesome! Love it. The dogs seem happy to have a job-kind of. Really dig the whole setup. Wish I could do something like this but I would need more space. I’m not sure I could take being in something that small. Except being outside so much maybe it wouldn’t be so bad. Little claustrophobic but he is cycling most of the time . Never know until you try! God bless & keep him and the dogs safe. And try and see your mom. She’s not going to be around forever.
What a fantastic nomadic way to live and travel. I'm loving this! I like how the dogs help pull the caravan.
They are not pulling anything, watch the video again.
The where running next to him
I felt pity sometimes dogs running
Re-assessing life can lead to something much more meaningful for the individual if they are brave enough. Enjoy your life journey
So this proves derelicts are everywhere.
Il faut aller au bout de ces rêves . Bravo Max. Portes toi bien et fais attention à toi.
Oui il est libre Max et je pense heureux; l'essentiel dans la simplicité...... merci pour ces bons moments d'évasion, je vous accompagne et bon vent à tous trois !
I love that bike camper build, it's probably the best one I've seen. I also love the solar panels on top of the camper. Happy adventuring.
Fantastique son aventure avec ses chiens et sa roulotte. Un vrai cyclo nomade. La liberté que l'on devrait tous vivre un moment donné. Merci c'est rafraîchissant de voir ça. Bon voyage.
Bien d'accord avec vous, merci pour votre commentaire !
It takes a humble soul to acknowledge he was once helped, and a great man to give back by helping others. I wish peace and health to this man, kids he used to work with, his dogs, his mother, and the owner of this channel.🙋
I kn right. It's Just beautiful to me..❤❤❤
Good for you! I wish I had understood this when I was younger because my life had been so repressed.
What makes you say your life has been repressed? What would or could you want to change or do now?
Bravo Max ! @max le bourlingueur.
Le trike couché fournit 30% de puissance en plus qu'un vélo droit, pour la même capacité musculaire. Il est conseillé par les cardiologues car les cuisses sont à la hauteur du cœur.
Super intéressant, merci !
That is interesting. Thank you.
Very nice!
C'est intéressant. J'ai toujours cru puisqu'on ne peut pas mettre tout le poids du corps sur les pédales, que la position couchée était beaucoup plus dure.
An upright bike provides much more torque, visibility. Advantage of recumbent is aero. That 30% power advantage applies only when maintaining fast athletic speed. Advantage of trike is being able to go uphill at 2kmh while not falling over. Which applies when pulling heavy trailer.
I also caught this kind of bug after watching some videos... Decided to build a coroplast camper on a 1 ton farm wagon frame.. Put the class 1 hitch on my Electric cargo bicycle by adding a wooden box with zip ties to the frame, has been working well for a couple or few years... been using it more for shopping then camping... It's very basic but also lightweight around 200 lbs in total with a few things in it even... it commands presence on the road... People generally exhibit more curiosity and respect than road rage
Congratulations…Promoting cyclotourism is my plan too…I want to own two pieces of land and developed them for those cyclists that need camping accommodation on Canada’s cross country trail ( Southern Ontario) and in Florida where I live for those cyclists who want to see Florida in the winter…wish me well and wish for me to do it soon for I am not young any more…
What a wonderful idea, best of luck to you and thank you for leaving a comment here!
That is sooooo SUPER AWESOME ❤ if everyone lived like that the world would be a whole lot better place - 🎉
It is quite impressive indeed. Thank you for having left a comment here!
Very nice design for a large bicycle camper. Good space maximization over wheels, including inside space spread over the outer wheel support. Using inside wheel space for storage trunk under bed. Sitting door area over outside wheel diameter is brilliant. Giant opening side door with shade absolutely beautiful and practical. Desk/table space with cutout for head is awesome for table space.
Curved roof is good for side winds,for such a high trailer, but those curved solar panels must produce very low output.
I would like to see more of this.
Sincerely!
R.S.V.
This is what I am dreamed about. wow what a adventure!
I have a solar trike setup.. i did a couple things to keep the motor spinning fast and cool. added a Lekkie 30T narrow wide sprocket, keeps motor spinning fast with lower torque.. Added a Rohloff to give more options for Power:gear:speed ratio.. i watch the watts to find the most efficient usage of current. And i go into gear 1, and power level 5 uphills .. This keeps the motor cool. I also carry frozen wet rags, that i put in ziplok bags and freeze over a bottle to the shape of my motor.. If i see a steep hill coming, i place one of the frozen wet rags on the motor before the climb. I never over heat. :). Thanks for he video.
Thank you for your detailed commenta and for watching the video!
So ingenious!
Absolutely! When I saw Max's little trailer from a distance, I couldn't help but get closer... and to talk to him even though I'm quite shy!
🦋🦋🦋Beautiful just Beautiful 🦋🦋🦋🦋
We each find our way in life. All the luck to you, Max!
Love Ur home have a beautiful life and a safe journey God bless ❤️
Wow. I've never seen anything like this. Happy next 10 years of traveling ❤
Thank you for your kind appreciation!
Wish I could make one of these campers
I give him the best of wishes just keep it up. the little things can make a difference.❤❤❤🦋🦋🦋
So cool! Merci pour partage avec nous!
Merci pour votre gentille appréciation !
Super cool, a super idea.
Pretty cool the different ways people enjoy life
Absolutely!
I totally empathise with him, his lifestyle and everything he said except I believe that it’s extremely extremely tiring for the dogs to make them walk every day for that long; I could tell they were really tired when he stopped for the interview and the dogs just dropped dead, one in the bed, the other one in the shade out there and they were like dead tired that’s not good for the poor things.
I can assure you he will get tired before a border collie and husky will, as long as it’s not too hot and they get plenty of water they will run all day
@@advantagemarine7305 it looked very warm in the video and underfoot in the tarmac. I wouldn’t dream of exercising my dogs in the heat. Maybe that’s why he keeps to the coast, but there should be some alternative transport for the dogs, so they can ride in the heat of the day!
Someone should design a bike camper with a seat that folds down into a double camp bed. a whole new revolution in tour camping could begin.
Love the idea!
That is exactly what I am now building in Massachusetts. My design has evolved from electric cargo bike based on a Cruzbike T50 front wheel drive recumbent. My evelovan? will be ~270cm long, ~90cm wide tilting delta trike with FWD. There will be a front fairing and tear drop style cabin covered in solar tiles for reasonable aerodynamics. The folding down seat allows cabin inside space to be about 200cm
I plan to relocate back to UK, get Irish passport then tour all over Europe with my beagle if permitted.
No plans to commercialize it, but will likely share construction details on youtube when complete.
C'est exactement ce que je suis en train de construire dans le Massachusetts. Ma conception a évolué à partir d'un vélo cargo électrique basé sur un vélo couché à traction avant Cruzbike T50. Mon evelovan ? sera ~ 270 cm de long, ~ 90 cm de large trike delta inclinable avec FWD. Il y aura un carénage avant et une cabine en forme de larme recouverte de tuiles solaires pour un aérodynamisme raisonnable. Le siège rabattable permet à l'espace intérieur de la cabine d'être d'environ 200 cm
Je prévois de retourner au Royaume-Uni, d'obtenir un passeport irlandais, puis de faire le tour de l'Europe avec mon beagle si cela est autorisé.
Il n'est pas prévu de le commercialiser, mais il partagera probablement les détails de la construction sur RUclips une fois terminé.
@@briannugent5518 Amazing, do share the video whenever you are creating one, would love to see! Good luck with the build!
@@Sebastian Thanks Sebastian, my plans are complicated by the relocation coming first and what I can ship back to UK. I'm inspired by all the amazing solar assisted cycle tour videos on YT. Once in UK I'll need a work shop and probably start the design over moving to TIG welded aluminium frame.
@@briannugent5518 make the fold down seating long enough for comfortable sleeping, that will make all the difference for long term camping.
Bonne route l'ami!
God bless as long as you are happy ❤😊❤
Those dogs seem very happy
Funny to watch the huskys attention on the camera person
Bonne route Max !
😉
Thanks for the great video
t'u es top Max, continue !! réalises tes rêves et au plaisir de te revoir
T’es un vrai toi !!! Jsuis fan car jsuis comme toi ! Magnifique roulotte vélo ! Tout simplement génial !
He is very handsome ❤
😂
I'm not ready to become a full time cyclo nomad but I would pay to join a cyclo tourism ride for a couple weeks twice a year.
This guy has an ace life.
Wow, just came back to this video and congrats on going viral lol!
Thank you, and thanks for noticing, Tom. I was also surprised it suddenly got viral over the past few days indeed, although it's one of the videos which likely took me the most amount of time shooting and editing, to create something more compelling. What surprised me though, was that the interview videos with Rainbolt didn't go as viral!
@@Sebastian I think in time the Rainbolt videos might! You have exceptional talent Sebastian, your thumbnails and videos content are very very good. Glad to see you getting the recognition you deserve now.
@@tomgeoguessr Thank you so much for your kind words, Tom - they certainly inflate my ego :). In all humbleness though, your appreciation helps keep me motivated! Thank you again!
Bravo monsieur, longue route à votre attelage…👍
Merci beaucoup
Very cool experience Max
How does he make money whilst travelling?? Bravo max 💪💪
Bravo Max, tout de bon!
a realy great man ... love you Max ... enjoy your trip ...
Nice 💯👍👍
Thanks ✌
i dream of living like that
Go for it, if you can!
You will do it, or you will not do it. You decide. Go well.
@@tomellis487 ive started to practice i have some new videos on my channel
😅💪🏼👌🏼 Love that Kind of living too. I ´ m in france too at this Moment 😅👍🏼 Many greetings, Michael 🙃👋🏼🍀
I notice you have an HP Velotechnik Gekko. Great trike. I almost got one in 2021, but ended up opting for the Scorpion Enduro instead. I am a long distance trike adventurer, but nothing like what you do. You may wish to consider some pedals that have made a HUGE positive difference in m ability to ease the effort when pedaling up hills and mountains (It is very mountainous where I live on the western coast of the United States). The pedals allow the entire foot to push, and are much longer than the short little pedals you have. With the foot supported heel to toe, you can put MUCH more power directly into each pedal stroke, something I realized only after trying out these pedals on my HP trike. The pedals are high grade aluminum, with 18 traction pins per pedal (each side) to keep your feet from slipping off while pedaling. The cost was $149 US dollars, but they are worth every bit that much, and I am SO glad to have replaced my clipless pedal setup that I used for the past 13 years.
Here are links to videos that I did about these pedals on my RUclips channel to give you an idea:
ruclips.net/video/H0c-FLw9vXs/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/w_96CmJrDuw/видео.html
And here is where I bought these great pedals:
pedalinginnovations.com/
I learned about them from another trike adventurer, a fellow named Matt Galat who started riding a trike around the world in 2014. He loves them, and now I know why! I would never go back to small standard pedals that are not good for the feet. I now have NO foot pain, like hotspots, any more. Riding up hills is not fun compared to what it used to be!

Did you do the beautiful uphill trek near Multnomah Falls? Saw cyclists there frequently and your comment made me remember that beautiful place and the overlook at the top. Respect.
@@cynthiaaustin1763 Hello Cynthia, I have been to Multnomah Falls many times over the years, and have hiked the narrow and steep trail all the way to the top. It is indeed very worthwhile and memorable.
steve
Super top
Ton projet est génial,un rêve sur roues
Merci pour ce super interview et ces superbes images.
Un petit bonjour d'Arquennes et de l'ancien canal...
Merci à toi, Max. Bonne route et peut-être à bientôt sur les routes d'Europe !
Pourrais-tu rajouter : Max le Bourlingueur. Pour que les gens le retrouve plus facilement dans leur recherche. Merci d'avance
Bonjour de Narbonne Jacques. J'espère que tout va bien pour toi. Bonne soirée et à bientôt
Rajouté à la description, pas de problème (c'était aussi déjà dans les "tags" de la vidéo) : je vois bien la vidéo quand je fais une recherche ruclips.net/user/results?search_query=max%20le%20bourlingueur (fais défiler la page vers le bas).
You are amazing!!!!
Tres interesting
Très content d'avoir connu votre aventure. Une seule recommandation : Acheter de souliers 'clipless'. Vous allez noté beaucoup plus de la force et de l'efficacité au pédalage. Pensez que vous profitez plus de degrés util a chaque tour
Respect from Taiwan. This is also what I want to do, too.
oui génial, vous vivez de quoi au juste parce que c' est bien beau tout ça mais faut bien manger quand meme et pas se nourrir que d' illusion !
Nice....Oui doucement surement et chiens heureux ,bonne route
Bravo Max,toi même tu sais 🦾
I would love to live this life. Unfortunately if you live in the UK it would be vandalised or set on fire.
So which countries would be suitable for something like that. And legal especailly if you not a citizen of that
country
Good on you mate. Living your dream. You are an inspiration
awesome content..subscribed...
Cheers, thank you!
Tre bien 🇱🇧🇺🇸
What a great way to live ❤
Wow what a way to live. I wonder in which countries in the world would a lifestyle like that be possible.
Trop cool bonne route
Hello my dear friend I like your videos very much ❤ Love you 🌹
Haha thank you very much!
❤🌹
Good job sir
Nice😀 well done🇳🇴
Thank's to the english subtitels I was able to follow your trip. Thank you so much. You say, that you write down points of interest like water supplies, road condition etc. Is there an app, where you can leave all of this information? If so, please let me know. I love to support such an app in my neighborhood.
Really nice story!
Mulțumesc foarte mult!
i love this :D
Quería conocer su historia, pero el traductor, no funcionó, igual ya me subscribí. Ojalá pueda traducir. Saludos desde Suramérica. Felicidades y Gracias.
He calls himself a "Cyclo- nomad" Ha! Great term.
Complimenti 👍👍👋👋
Great rig!
Очень завидую! супер идея!
I wish I could speak French. I love this life style I will retire in 8 years and I will be doing the same thing.😊
Never too late to start learning the most beautiful language of all times (not biased at all)! Start with an app like Duolingo. Best of luck to doing the same thing and getting the years in until retirement!
you could put a yurt in that thing
genial
Not a tiny home , but a rectangular Box
😊👍🇨🇦 love the dog team
If I had nothing to do, I would probably do the same and see what's around the world
But on my bike i would modify it so when going down hill ,
It would store the energy and release it going up hill
Put a fly wheel on the wheels and a clutch to engage and disengage
Also a small high frequency motor generator for charging going down hill and to drive the fly wheel for extra energy into climbing pre the hill
What a cool dude
Bonjour content savoir tu est de braine-l’alleud je suis dans la région ath en hainaut je vient trouver ta chaîne par hasard 😉
Magaling😊😊😊😊😊😊
Quiero vivir y trabajar así, quiero vivir en un velerito anfibio de 4.2 metros de eslora de largo es mi sueño, felicidades al Belga .
Look up foamie camper builds. Then tow one with your bike. Except you run spare batteries in the camper with a cable connecting it to the bike with a mid drive motor.
Super!
how often are you harassed by police or bad actors? I'm considering this kind of setup and a bit apprehensive. my past experiences with homelessness have been rather unpleasant.
Muy interesante estilo de vida. Desde Tenerife le deseo lo mejor a Usted y sus perritos 🌴🌴💖💖☀️☀️🍀🍀🍀🍀
Muchas gracias!
I'm interested to know how often you are harassed by bad-actors and police. Love your spirit.
Le gros problème c'est pour se laver non? Surtout qu'on sue à pédaler! Moi, sans une bonne douche le soir avant de me coucher j'aurais du mal! 😅
I've spent weeks looking at bike trailers. This is the nicest design i've seen. Well done. Do you have any opinions on using a trike vs a quad or standard bicycle?
Queria ter uma vida assim
Qualquer dia é um bom dia para começar uma nova vida, não desista!
Nice yraveler
