  • Comparing oneself to the Grinch and Moaning Myrte might not be the regular thing to do, but while creating this episode i felt like sharing my grinchy feelings.
    May I take you with me on my ride from Santa Cruz de Tenerife to Los Christianos?
    I am sharing first impressions and some daily bikepacking struggles on the island which will probably be my new home during winter time.
    Enjoy watching!

    Hello here from Santa Cruz (California--ha!). Thanks for your honesty in reflecting on highs and lows of what looks like a great trip. Peace!

    Years ago when I was touring, I balanced out my weight on the bike with low center of gravity panniers in the front. That gave me great bike control while fighting the winds, hills, etc. Don't know what's available now in today's market, but knowing what I experienced back then, I wouldn't change a thing. I felt like I controlled the bike, especially when cars and trucks were passing me. Anyway, enjoy the trip, you're only young once. PS...Just wanted to add, if you're biking and feel safe with the other biker, drift off each other where it's safe, especially in winds and going up hills taking turns leading (every couple of minutes) as you'll be surprised how much energy you save.

    Question... how do you or did your friend Chris support your tour financially?

    • @giantcheerio
      @giantcheerio  2 года назад +1

      Well you need at least a little bit of money while being on the road. But the good thing is that you can be creative on how to make that income:)
