- Riding the Ha Giang Loop with my bicycle by myself was an INCREDIBLE experience. The terrain, the country, the people, surpassed my expectations. This route is very popular for motorbikes. I figured, if they can do it, then I can for sure do it on my bike :). I rode this in late October. Hope it inspires you to get out there and see what the world has to offer!

The people of Vietnam are kind. Most are willing to help if they see you struggle or, in a case, your bike breakdown. Don’t worry too much, and remember to ask the mountains for protection.
Looks like the road is all going to be widened and paved in a couple of years. I see a lot of machinery, gravel, and rock blasting work.
Congrats, this is no small endeavor. Love Vietnam, it's pretty safe and the people are friendly, especially in the rural areas. Thanks for sharing your journey. 👍
Thank you for watching and I agree! it's generally safe and I felt welcomed :).
Thank you that was a excellent video very inspiring. You choose a spectacular route fantastic scenery thank you again for sharing ☀️☀️☀️ Wishing you Happy Cycling ☀️
You're braver than me that's for sure. I could never go back to the old country as I'm too Americanize and they would definitely see me as an outsider. Grew up in the South and never got a chance to visit the North, something I would have loved to do. It's a good thing you have a gravel bike on the trip after seeing the landscaping. All that food is now making me hungry (except for the veggies 😁.)
WOW you got to see some AMAZING VIEWS. Great video. What a ADVENTURE. All the food look so delicious 😋. I most definitely will be following you to see what next adventure you do. 🏕️
thanks!
Wow! I motorbiked Ha Giang solo but this is more impressive. I want to go back there and explore every side roads, villages, and trails! Congrats
haha, proud of you for doing it solo. It feels like I scratched the surface..
Hello,
What a great video! I'm loving your RUclips channel!
Thanks for sharing!
Big hug
You loved my country , thanks !
it's a treasure! ♥️.
You are such a brave young lady to undertake this amazing adventure, greatest of respect going your way.
Thanks!
I’m glad I finally clicked on your video. Your storytelling is superb. Loved the mix of captions and stills and video and voice commentary! Am now subscribing.
Being out and able to do things and enjoy your surrounding is more than a freedom “ keep pedalling 🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️!
A big congrats on your journey. You are one tough women riding your bike on those roads under construction. We are in Northern Thailand on a motorcycle, lucky we have not had roads that bad yet. Yes, you are so right about worrying about things that might happen, it will hold you back. In my younger years, never worried, just did it. Now I am 78, I am starting to worry about what might happen, so that is starting to hold me back some. Anyway, beautifully done video, thanks for taking the time to video it, I know it adds a lot of time to your travel. We just ride now, only stop a few times to take photos. Again, thanks for taking us along on your adventure.

Thank you so much for your comment and recognizing the effort :). I also thought about how much I wanted to spend recording vs being fully present. Wonderful that you're still riding at 78! That's my goal. Looking back, I'm happy to have been able to "journal" it and share it with others. Everyday I'm becoming more accepting of life phases and understanding how we can be our best selves at our current age.
Thank you for sharing I will be riding the entire country of Vietnam and Laos this coming October until December
That looked epic!
Very impressing journey . Best of luck for your upcoming trips. Please post your trip route.
check my youtube bio for the itinerary.
Great video! Congratulations and thanks for making. Am researching bikepacking and came across your channel. Have subscribed and will watch more. All the best in your adventures 💫
thanks for stopping by and good luck on your journey :)
Hi, I'm new to your channel. Thanks for sharing your adventures, your resilience with us. 🎉 I hope I'd be able to do something similar one day.
Nice video! As a road biker this might be the first time I've seen merit in a gravel 🤫 I guess on that sort of ride you have to tow around chain cleaner etc
You are so brave and strong to ride on that rocky road.
Phenomenal job.. great watching you ride through all sorts of obstacles.. keep it up. You are a strong person mentally and physically ..
This is on my bucket list! Thank you so much for sharing! Great Job!❤
🤗, excited for you!
🏍️I just did this in December, but with a group tour. WOW well done for solo biking!! The scenery is SOMETHING ELSE🤩 I also vlogged my experience on my channel🎥 I love your videos, keep them coming!❤x
Aw thanks! The scenery is magical isn't it? It's wonderful that we can explore and recap such a beautiful and culturally rich area on bikes! 😉.
Beautiful video Carolina (great editing)! Waiting for your next bike adventure!
Thank you for watching, David! 😊
Wow, that is incredible that u ride ur bike the entire Ha Giang loop. I’m not sure I can handle just sitting in the back of a bike for 4-5 days 😂 . Base on ur profile pic look like u r from the Bay Area. I’m also from the Bay Area. I hope u enjoyed ur time in my home country. Perhaps, one day I will come back to VN and do the Ha Giang loop. For now I’m just living vicariously through people videos.
they have 3 days options 🤣. Your home country has so much to offer, I had a fantastic time there, hope you get a chance to revisit!
New subscriber here! Thank you for sharing this great adventure with us.
It was very inspiring. You have so much courage.
Thank you so much for subscribing and the sweet comment! :)
Beautiful and inspiring!
Absolutely gorgeous filming my friend!
Thank you!
Good job Carolin! Very well made!! 😃
🤗
Việt Nam chào đón bạn bè
nice views, some rough roads lol Should do thailand, I am doing solo 8 days 1100km as a starter soon, from my home
That sounds amazing! enjoy!
Hi! You are so cool and inspiring! I'm Just getting into biking and these trips you go on look unreal. I have a couple of possibly stupid questions, when you go on biking trips are you carrying camping gear and camping at all or staying in other hotels/accommodations? And Also where do you get your ideas for routes that are bike-friendly:) Thanks so much!
Nice 👍👍 just a quick question..any issues with VN customs for bringing in your bike? Cheers!
Amazing video! I’ve always wanted to get into bikepacking one day, so this is super inspiring! Also, doing the Ha Giang loop soon (on a motorbike though), and these views are getting me so excited!
thank you and i'm thrilled for you too!! It's truly magical.
Bikepacking is fun if you can get used to the idea of living in a tent while hauling your gears or in most cases, saddle bag and panniers, as you ride from one destination to the next.
Great video! I'm looking forward to embarking on a bike trip to Ha Giang soon. 🚲
Ty! Excited for you, have a blast and ride safe!
Is Viet Nam not the most amazing place? You are so tough. I biked in this country and I forgot how the locals would just run out to wave and yell HELLO HELLO. We kinda stuck out. We had two guys in our group who were both over 6ft tall.
Maybe I’ll run into you in SF and we can ride from bottom of Stanyan up to Sutro.
Wow! congrats n extremely well done. A cut above most. BTW which city did you start from? thanks
Thank you, I started my ride in Ha Giang.
Amazing journey ❤
Awesome Video. We are going for the loop by bicycle in two weeks. Can you maybe share your accommodations?
exciting! check my youtube bio for my itinerary :).
Such an amazing trip great challenge with push bike ❤ to see pushed through without problem.
You are so strong, many people don't dare to go like that.
Wow, good job! 💪
Thanks Carolin I loved your video so many thanks
That's an amazing experience. Where did you rent your bike from?
I actually brought my bike from home.
Awesome
Your video and your style is absolutely great....! Maybe a Little bit challenging to understand you sometimes because of the wind.
Thanks for watching! I noticed the wind too and am thinking of ways to minimize that in the future :)
@@bikewithcarolin now you sound a bit distant ... We are not part of the adventure 😉. Seriously, the uncut format has merit too!
looks like the food was excellent. Any flats or technical difficulties? Was it difficult to find places to stay? The low gears were a god idea for the rough roads. Do you speak the language?
No flags or mech issues, thankfully. It wasn't that difficult finding places, it does come down to what you prefer and how you plan. Some can book a few days before, I planned a month ahead for accommodations. I spoke the essentials like hello, thank you, simple complimentary phrases and names of my favorite foods 😁, lol. Google translate is your buddy here.
Amazing .Good Job . Beautiful. 🤔😲
Amazing video! I subscribed. Also, what do you edit your videos with? It is very smooth, Good editing 👍
Ty! Capcut.
❤
Great adventure! 🤙🚲🇻🇳
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
I am considering to do the same trip - also on a gravel bike :-)
Do you have an gps file of the exact route you followed?
check my youtube bio for my itinerary :). Gravel is the way to go for peace of mind.

Am wondering what width are your tires?

@@bikewithcarolin thanks, I'll take a look!
Xin chào , bạn đến từ nước nào ? Bạn đạp xe một mình hay cùng với ai ? ❤
Tôi đến từ Mỹ, gia đình tôi đến từ Campuchia. Tôi đạp xe một mình.
@@bikewithcarolin Hi , đạp xe một mình trên cùng đường đèo dốc và vắng vẻ như vậy bạn có gặp trở ngại gì không ? Tôi đã sang du lịch Campuchia , lên núi Bokor ở đó 1 ngày đêm , khí hậu mát mẻ .
nice
Wow fair play riding it yourself - I made a documentary of our trip recently if you want to check it out :)
Gái Việt gọi bằng cụ :))
Only a VC can travel safely in Vietnam
