I don't leave this comment for Iohan, he's gone, I leave this for you. I want to say that this man's adventures and trials on earth haven't been in vain, or have been forgotten. He worked hard at having a decent outdoor life. He took the time to share his adventures with us. He'd have done just fine if he hadn't had medical issues that tormented him until he thought he just couldn't handle things any longer. Despair is temporary, it goes away with distraction, then desire and focus. I encourage all those going through trials to continue another day. Create something with your hands or learn something new. Never just give up. If you're watching this video, you must be a decent person. The world needs you and all the other decent types it can get, and keep! Maine says "Hello".
Works 2 months a year. Lives life 10 months a year. All these years I've been living wrong. A slave to stuff. It makes me sad. Now I don't work because I had a stroke. Now it feels too late. Please don't let it be too late for all of you! Shed your love of "stuff". Get out there, and live!!!
@@floater81floats37 He was suffering from insomnia. After a while you just get so fatigued you don't feel like you are alive anymore and the days become a struggle. When you are also forced to pause your travels and stay in lockdown that is also very hard for a freebird like Iohan. I don't think his lifestyle made him sad rather there was alot of 'unlucky circumstances' that made his health worse to the point he couldnt bear it anymore. If you would suffer from insomnia you would know, its like you feel the life force being zapped from you little by little. Its a horrible condition. On 19th of august it was a year since you left us. Rest in peace brother.
@@lightningshredder5605 In Bicycling magazine issue #5 2022 there is A 4 page story it is called DID ANYONE REALLY KNOW THE BIKE WANDERER. It sort of filled in the blanks of his earlier life as a child. I recommend it. You are correct his lifestyle and traveling was his source for joy. A place where he could get exactly what he needed. Pure exhaustion. Medicine for insomnia. I hope no one has to know what it feels like, but they could at least understand, he didn't give up easily just because he was sad, he saw the world.👍☮️ when everything you have is taken you can feel there is no point. I wish he found another answer. May he sleep in peace.
I am a 62year old fan. Love your ability to go off on a bike and get lost in the big world with no worries . Keep travelling my young man for as long and as far as you can
Hi Iohan! I'm really proud to hear my song in one of your videos! A lovely video as always! There's something with your videos that gives me hope about people and the world. You always capture something beautiful in you videos. Keep up the good work, stay safe and I really hope that you'll get supported enough to get around the whole world. CHEERS! Axl Ludwig
My cat died. His soul brought me here. I dedicate my music on my RUclips channel but know one will watch. I want to die... so I can start living. Thanks for this.Meow🐱
Hey!!!! At 25:26 you ran into John Z! He is pretty much the badass of badasses for backpacking. He holds the speed record of the Colorado Trail unsupported averaging 50 miles a day!!! Totally mind blowing to see the two most epic dudes on youtube in the same video. Awesome.
And John Z ran into Cam “Swami” Honan on the PCT. NOW THAT IS SOME CRAZY COINCIDENCES. 3 extreme adventure travelers whose paths crossed. Higher power stuff there.
After waiting for a new video since I first found your channel we finally get it... less than 24 hours before I set out on my first tour. I didn't think I'd have any free time today, but looks like I'll have to scrape together 70 minutes somewhere. Thank you so much. You're videos have been a great inspiration as I prepare to step into the unknown.
I love these videos so much! You do such a great job of keeping them realistic. No hype and no attempts at stretching the truth. Thanks so much for sharing these. Reminds me of the bike trips I've taken and how I need to get out and do another one soon.

I just cannot stop watching the awesome footage you've produced over the past years! The quality is excellent and the pace is just right, love the humor as well :-)

Hi Iohan, you are the man dude! I can't tell you how much I have waited for this next episode. Just absolutely brilliant, you take us and show us some of the most beautiful places, its just a joy to watch. I have watched you previous episodes a number of times now and this one will be no different! Your film work is awesome, I'm loving every bit of your adventure. Keep going my friend...All the best. Nige.
Sometimes we have to go back-a-way to go forwards; sometimes its down hill all the way, other times its like pushing an elephant uphill. Every moment of life is a step on this journey. Sometimes you are like an express train in slow motion, sometimes a fish in the flow of a stream. How you manage to get good photo footage while surviving the harshest weather and worst road conditions, I shall never know. Loving all your encounters, 4- and 2- legged. Thumbs up up up my friend.
Glad to see you still going on more unbelievable trips. Saw your Alaska video and that got me hooked on bike traveling. Did a couple small bike trips last summers and looking forward to more this summer. It as absolutely amazing. Cheers!
lohan, you are such an inspiration....each episode and video are amazing. Thanks for sharing and "taking us along" on such wonderful and beautiful adventures :^)
You should get someone to edit in a break where an animation follows your progress on a map! Like evey 15 mins..? Its just hard to visualize the true distance your traveling.

Mindblowing tours. I have watched the series. without doubt the best touring series ever! Such a nice decent human being at one with nature. Really inspirational Iohan. Thank you!
From watching every episode I think this one was the most epic and in these mountains you could realy find RAW WILDERNESS, peace and freedom-Cheers Iohan-I love nature myself also
Working on my bike, new handlebars new breaks and bar ends. Blackburn outpost rear rack with extra water bottle mounts. Getting ready for my next ride.
Another amazing episode with you Iohan ! :) It's nice to see people actually living the dream of being in total nature & just going at it. That guy at 24:00 had 2 Lamas caring all his gears that was sick xD
Some people dream to get out here.... he dreams to be able to keep going... well said Iohan! Planning on the GDMBR in summer of 2020. Hope it happens. As usual great video, professional quality for sure, and a great soundtrack. Epic!
This is just amazing. Thank you very much for sharing with us. You make people dream of what they might have tought impossible before. You are an inspiration. Keep going we will always make time to see what you are up to. Be safe.
Hi, Iohan ! You are my favorite bike traveler. I was seeing your videos mayby three time. Every one video, three time. I am always excited when you upload new one. :)
Hi Iohan, I'm watching in 2019 you've had amazing adventures beautifully videotaped here, you've accomplished so much, congratulations on your adventures!
Iohan, I can't thank you enough! you've refired my love of long-distance cycling, a passion that has only smoldered in me for many years. I wish you all the best on your journeys, though something in me says that it isn't luck which guides you safely!
Iohan, your videos are incredible! This was so inspiring, the breathtaking beauty of the wilderness with warm, friendly, smiling people everywhere you went. I can't wait to watch the rest of your videos! huge respect!
I so rather be expearcing this than normal life. I'm a very broad guy with views with interests and this is right up my ally. I'm thankfull for this thing called RUclips!
Good morning Iohan, I love the wonderful content in your videos. In fact, they are the very best of all that I follow. I am now an oldtimer from Shropshire in the UK. I'm in awe of your adventurous spirit. If I believed in the hereafter, I would be doing exactly the same. Safe travels Iohan, I shall continue to follow.
Inspirational and awesome! Your videos help motivate me to keep planning a trip in the near future! (nothing near as big of a trip as yours though!) Thanks!
Highly addictive and well made Iohan! Positive thinking, a nice open attitude towards the world and new people, perseverance, strength, suffering, enjoying the weather and the outdoors and the astounding animal interactions all rolled into one. Have a nice trip....greetings from the Netherlnds
I just found this channel today and I'm enjoying this too and haven't stopped watching. His only got 55K subscribers that means a lot people are missing out on this inspiring adventure.
oh man sorry. many of the new episodes have ads because thats what the copyright thing is for youtube. When i have original songs its ad free. cheers and thanks!
@@martinvu8395 yea i wish he did have them though as i feel bad for not contributing to his effort at all... its bad form for me haha! love his stuff aye....
I'm glad to see you're still going on with your grand tour. I've only done one short tour but have built a worthy touring MTB and am scheming to get out and adventure like you. This is the best cycling series I have ever watched and your attention to nature and the things we really enjoy while out riding is great. Good luck to you Iohan.
You are so deeply missed Iohan, we are so sorry we weren't there in ways you needed. Thank you for everything, fly high Iohan
I miss him so so much. I must have watched his videos more than 20 times.
We supposed to meet in Poland, sadly it will never happen 😢. See you in Heaven Iohan

@@BlGGESTBROTHER yes I heard the sad news. I'm hoping the Bike wandering people will put all his videos into a movie.

"find beauty everywhere you go because things won't always be that way." that was the realest most inspiring line I ever heard.
You sir, are a legend.

yeah he was doing 40miles plus on the cdt and planing to hike the Appalacian quickly before winter, haha!

He was a bright ligt in this world, thanks for all the video's you left us
