Thank you, SO VERY MUCH for your support of this project. Jeremiah and our team sunk every bit of themselves into this France project, and all I can hope is that this film captures a glimpse of their hard work. These films are meant to inspire anyone to get out and have their own adventure, so regardless of what you have available to you, adventure is waiting, now go find it! If you thought this film was worth a cup of Cafe Americano, donations go a LONG way. : www.paypal.com/paypalme/vegancyclist
Keep them this long!!! I love riding with these. It's like having a friend without needing to really coordinate with anyone. I've watched these routes quite a few times and they don't get old. Thank you.
Love the vids and silly stupid brutal stuff you lads do its inspiring, been waiting for you to come back on the tube bro, cant wait to watch this tmoz 😴😴 xx
Love LOVE these impossible route videos. It's so inspiring that I started my own channel and have a whole bunch of outdoor adventures planned next year. Seriously thank you. I learned a lot about editing from some of your earlier videos and eagerly await every video you put out.
DUUUUUUDE! You were out of water! You were out of food! You're NOT made of steel and carbon fiber. You DO have limits, and you pushed past them. You have NOTHING to be ashamed of. I've said this many times, the reason I love ya bruh is you are SO real! You're a genuine dude. And seeing you push yourself to your breaking point nearly brought me to tears. You're putting up power numbers on par with pro riders. You're a freakin' BEAST man. Be as proud of yourself as those of us that take these journeys with you are. You're an amazing human.
What an epic film! It was really special for us to host and ride with you for part of this, and amazing to see up close the work and skill and dedication and craft and passion that the whole crew put in. And if anyone watching would like to ride parts (or all!) of this route, get in touch. We'd love to share these mountains with you!
I'm currently just over 40 minutes in, and I was curious was brand bike that Jamie was riding, so I paused the film andI fell down the "escapetothepyrenees" rabbit hole. I'm just coming up for air now after a couple hours. I am obsessed now and WILL make this trip happen at some point!
How does this series not have millions of views. This is so much more entertaining than any movie out there. Thanks for the blood, sweat and tears that go into these. EPIC.
@@jeremiahbishopswheelhouse your map shows you moving west to east (wrong), the route on the map never touches spain, and the route on the map goes through the mediterranean sea for many many miles
@@ChesterChi3 i had to pause it and look to google maps if i seeing right... but documentary as allways is incredible... one obvious mistake does not ruined for me :)
Dude I don't know how as a teen I can express my enthusiasm and joy from the beginning of this impossible route. This is just the best thing I have seen all year. Like I personally fell this beats all the sports documentary out there. I just fall down before u guys for making this. U guys really brought the beauty of the sport that i love out to the world to experience it for free. Just dope man just dope. Hands down really to u and especially jeremiah and his mental strength. God he is sooooo tough.
Incredible! The best yet. The videography, the storytelling, the pure graft and effort of this. You are both an inspiration. You keep me getting back in the saddle through difficult times. The camarederie of Tyler and Jeremiah, being there for each other as bros, just puts a huge smile on my face!
It's amazing where Tyler asking to loan a bike from Jeremiah had lead up to! Cheers fellas I hope this keeps on going for years to come! Watching this beautiful film at work!! Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! Keep on cycling until the wheels fall off!! Cheers!
The soundtrack on this one was by far the hardest part. French music that I can use is like, 2 songs. Then I couldn’t just use classical the whole time. I’d bet there’s 40 hours into song searching on this episode 😵💫
I'm an Englishman living in France for almost 3 years. I'm nowhere near the really big mountains, (which look epic! Maybe one day....) But i just want to say you guys have inspired me to go harder than ever on my rural commute & i just smashed my best time this morning. Hats off to the whole team who work on these vids!
The bar just keeps getting raised; what an evolution of production, fitness, camaraderie, mentality….you’re doing us all a great service by allowing us to ride along with you on these journeys and experience (if only vicariously on the trainer), the wonders of this world available to us by bike. Thank you all. You guys are absolute beasts.
Hey Tyler, not sure if you’ll see this message mate. But you’re an inspiration and you inspire me. You’re one hell of a role model for other cyclists…you suffer like no one I’ve seen! Thank you from 🇬🇧
Tyler my friend, this one was beyond words man! The story, the cinematography, the edit ... OMG UNREAL BEAUTIFUL! You should submit this one to film festivals! Thank you for this, thoroughly enjoyed it!
Woooaaaaww , thank U for showing us the Pyrénées as you did. It is wonderfull. I am french , living between Bordeaux and Toulouse , I know the Pyrénées but I just realize in looking at what you have done how marvelous it is for biking.
Gaddam! Now I gotta cancel my plans for this afternoon, close the curtains and enjoy the ride!! Thanks VC and the team for producing such stellar content!
So rewind about 13 years. Massanutten VA. My first XC race. Im pushing my bike up a hill (looking exactly like JB in that shot on Day 3). Puking chocolate gel all over myself. Some dude comes past me in a flat out sprint. That dude, was JB. Really puts this challenge into perspective. Great work boys
With how beautiful this was, I'm proposing the next Impossible Route. A 3 day bike route that is impossibly perfect. Amazing sights, amazing food, amazing accommodations, amazing everything, and amazing smiles. A Route so perfect and enjoyable that is impossible for it to be a better bike vacation for you two, whatever that may be!
You my friend are the future of the Bike industry. It’s great getting a real world perspective from a relatable perspective. It’s definitely fun to watch the Tour but it doesn’t inspire me to ride my bike. Watching you gives me 100X more inspiration to get out there and ride and live my best bike life possible. Thanks for creating this wicked content, I am definitely hooked!
It was obvious from the Instagram posts/stories and everything being put on Strava that this was going to be the best Impossible Route yet, and it more than lived up to the hype. Seeing the friendship between you and JB develop throughout this series has been incredible, and to see you grow both as a cyclist and a person has been the cherry on top. Well done, guys; I loved every second of this and it's apparent that you both did as well.
Nothing else to say but that this is simply the best cycling documentary ever made. Thanks for making it. Just awesome 👌 It's your best work, but also THE best, period.
It just does NOT matter how many years I've been a cyclist and extreme explorer. NOPE. Jeremiah and VC continue to inspire and motivate me to push myself farther and to create bigger projects for myself. Chapeau boys!
Your 3 am start immediately took me back to when I did the Denver-Aspen Classic, a one day, 202 mile, 13,000'+ vert ride across the Colorado Rockies. 60 or so insane people, the ladies included, pushing off at 3 am in a wicked paceline with the occasional exploding tire making things all the more interesting, as if riding in that line in the dark at 3 am going 25 mph on pothole filled suburban roads wasnt surreal enough. Fortunately we all spaced out some, it eventualy got light as we entered the foothills, and about 12 hours later we were coasting down Independence Pass into Aspen, all the more stoked from the experience of accomplishing something we werent exactly feeling was an absolute guarans when first clipping in. Fear of failure prevents a shit-ton of successes.... Awesome to see you and J back at indulging in that delicious misery you both so crave!!!
The llamas and clouds. Tyler goosing past Jeremiah on the one hill and his bike wheels weaving like a kid riding a bike for the first time… just noting two of the many epic/hilarious moments, but there were so many more. I hope this channel and series continues with Jeremiah. He is the perfect mate and balance to Tyler. From a viewers perspective. LOVE THE IMPOSSIBLE ROUTE!
That’s me dude, it’s a HUGE part of the film and takes me weeks to find the right soundtrack. This one was the hardest to find good tunes, at least 40 hours into song searching.
Man that was a wonderful movie. Truly amazing filming/editing, Jeremiah and you are impressively endurant. But as a Frenchman, I just need to point out that your map showed the itinerary going all the way from the Atlantic coast to the Italian Alps, entirely skipping Spain and Andorra, and cycling over the Mediterranean Sea! I don't mean any disrespect, no way I could do what you guys did, even if I had a week or two. Imagine if I rode from Portland to Seattle, but displayed a line going all the way up to Vancouver, going over the Salish Sea. Not a big deal, I know, but seeing it again and again along this beautiful documentary is the reason I wanted to point it out. I guess spending countless hours editing must have taken a toll on your European geography skills ;)
Bro, the growth of your storytelling skills are incredible. The first video in which I learned of you was your sunglasses comparison 3 years ago. From that, to THIS?!?? Most RUclipsrs just add technical elements as they grow their channels, whereas you added production and depth to your story as a cyclist. Just brilliant.
@@TheVCAdventures I agree with the comment, that's why your channel stands out. I have been watching it since long. A small question, where you mount your camera when you not holding it in hand? chest strap or helmet mount? please guide
What a masterpiece for so many reasons. Worth the 3 month wait(missing you guys). Thank you for taking us with you to sights yet unseen and to the beauty of cycling through France. (Spain&Andorra) Stoked:check, inspired:check, very appreciative of all your efforts. Chapeau gentleman.
This series really has been inspirational on my cycling journey! I've been dreading the route I have planned tomorrow because it is way out of my comfort zone and known fitness level. Now I'm pumped to test my limits, push boundaries, and have permanent growth.
You're such a great film maker, this is your best yet. I watched this in 3 parts to ensure I didn't get distracted by family noise and stuff. These videos are inspirational and moving at times, I will continue to recommend your channel to anyone I come across that shows an interest in bike packing or cycling in general. Bravo!
Bruh, thank you for doing this. These rides are inspiring. They make people want to get out and go ride. To find your own personal impossible route. Everybody's impossible route is different, but these videos inspire people to get out and find that impossible route. Thanks for doing these. Keep up the hard work. Don't stop making these.
Thanks for inspiring us to push farther and enjoy the ride. I have fallen in love with gravel and adventure riding and your channel has been a big part of it. I have always appreciated your honesty in film making. These impossible routes have been one of my favorite things to watch on RUclips.
It's always a highlight to watch your films. I get so inspired by the hard work you put in. And as always you never disappoint. I've said it once and I'll say it again, it's ok to fail. And you demonstrate that it's not about losing it's about how you comeback from a set back. As always I can't wait to see the next one and untill then I'll be following you on IG and Strava. Thanks again so much!!!
I have loved all your videos, but this one is off the charts. This should be on Netflix. The inspiration you give, your pro tips on being vegan, and loving your family. I wish I had a more "wordy" vocabulary too. I really don't know the words to describe how much I love this movie, the love, the messages, and the life lessons. Just watching this changes my world, I cannot imagine being your world-turning wheels. Keep them coming.
Legen....wait for it.......dary! Another epic adventure in the book of life. VC, you're gonna have endless stories to share around the table when you're 95.
Well worth the wait and as expected an epic adventure with highs and lows of racing, breathtaking scenery complemented by a truly amazing route. This is why your video’s are head and shoulders above all other cycling vids.
I have been critical of the relationship between VC and Jeremiah in a previous video (Hellride) but this destroyed that myth, the relationship comes shining through. This is yet another inspirational video that makes you just want to jump on your bike and do crazy shit.
Best impossible route yet 👏 you guys really knocked it off the scale with this one. Each episode inspires and ignites the imagination, the editing and production becomes more polished to the point where I genuinely think you could / should be doing a Netflix series soon. 🙏 France didn’t disappoint for me this year either, I did a 6 day trip in the Alps but as a fellow Vegan I did suffer with food choices, luckily I had packed a lot of food to take with me but I still lost 3kgs in 6 days. I ate a lot of salad 😂 If you ever fancy a trip to the Uk I will happily open my home up to you if you needed somewhere to stay 👍
A couple years ago I watched your saddle guide. Watching you while I grow as a cyclist has been interesting as we diverged and now in some ways converge on gravel endurance. This is an incredible video and what makes it is your honesty. Thanks for these
Great job as always. It is an inspiring ride and video! But... the on screen map is way off. You rode the length of the Pyrenees in the bottom left corner of France.
I can't put into words what I saw! Absolutely unbelievable, powerful, emotional, it's like in other realms! I know these feelings when cycling, just on a deeper sporting level. I think it is above all the absolute connection with nature and creation. I am so thankful that I found you. I wish you only the best...
Awesome work guys, I am so very proud of you and hope you guys feel the same! Not only physically but also mentally admirable what you put into this project. Thanks so much for the great movie! Been following you a while now from Germany and am glad you produce this content for us. Although, I've to tell you that the geographical illustrations of France are not quite accurate. The Pyrenees are located in the south western part of France seperating France from Spain. So by riding through them you get from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean Coast but not all the way to the Eastern part of France. Anyway keep it up dude and I am looking forward to your next projects.
Very moving, heart-warming, and uplifting to see the experience in which you and Jeremiah experienced France and Spain. Congratulations, and thank you for sharing such an epic journey.
Best one yet boys. You captured not only the epic story and adventure, but, more importantly, you thoroughly explored and crystallized exactly what makes all of us love this crazy sport. Chapeau, Chapeau, Chapeau.
Unreal effort and amazing watch. Having grown up in the Pyrenees, I can't describe how great it is to see you and Jeremiah evolving through all those familiar towns and landscapes!
The talk at 55 minutes, by Jeremiah is so key. What a great team mate to have with you. Earlier on, I also loved Tyler's statement about failing. It's easy to not fail - just don't try anything hard. Very, very true.
Being a cyclist and vegan myself for almost 10 years - It's really nice to see those gains you've made on trough all these EPIC impossible routes. This was a special treat, like all og them cinematography and storytelling on point.
Coming from Germany I think it’s hilarious to hear you talk about the many features of France and, well, Europe with such awe and fascination. Anyway. What a fantastic experience, a true joy to watch. I totally get your frustration and emotional turmoil but, man, it was so very obvious how you’d literally spent everything you had up to that point (talking about you cracking). Makes me want to get out and do more! 🔥 Oh, also, that scene with the cattle (race 3, day 2) is gold! Last addition: You deserve so many more views for this!!
Awesome film of a fantastic route which brought back some incredible memories for me. Did more or less the same route waaaay back in 1990, bike packing on old school mountain bikes. Took us 10 days! Looking forward to the next one.
The stoke is so high after this. Thank you both for giving us this opportunity to experience the highs and lows of this adventure. And what a beautiful one it was. You honestly couldn’t get two more likable characters to bring this to life. And the competition aspect def added a fantastic element to the route. Until the next one…..I will be waiting with baited breathe. Congrats and f-ing well done boys.
My second time watching this, absolutely love it! I lived in Germany for 12 years and cycled all over the place and this brings back so many memories…. Miss that lifestyle so much!
Thanks, simply amazing trip. What's 30 feet between friends. Good to see you in europe, UK Lake District would give you some fun. Keep up the amazing work really spurs me on to do more cycle and adventure stuff.
Awesome, massive effort !!! Truely inspiring ! Can't wait for my next adventure, crossing France from North east to South west next year. I was really interested of how you would get vegan food in the Pyrenees, I'm doing ultra cycling and I am vegan as well, I often struggle to find proper decent vegan food in rural areas of France :)
Just the thought of being able to ride the Tourmalet literally brings tears to my eyes...even more than Alpe d'Huez and Ventoux - those are brutal but just do not have the same mystique, at least to me, watching the Tour since even the Jonathan Boyer days.....yea, I'm really THAT old....!!!! Viva Jacque Boyer!!!
Absolutely killed it boys. The quality of the filming and the emotion of the ride from start to finish really is motivational. Thanks for the time and you and your crew put into the whole process.
This is a masterpiece! So nicely done in every way... the music, the feelings transferred, the scenery... Thank you for making me love cycling and inspiring me to love life. Keep up the good work, I can't have enough of your videos!
This is the best episode of Impossible Route. Tyler rides like and beast and there are plenty of entertaining moments, plus some plenty of highs and lows. Great stuff
I was waiting so much for a new episode… And damned, when watching this one, I just realize how much I was actually missing it!!! So great content as usual and production on top of it! Just thanks for remembering every time how great it is to ride our bikes!
So amazing for Canyon to sponsor and support all of these “impossible” films. Every mountaineer who has turned around knows this pain and guilt (ask me how I know). The bases of all majestic peaks are littered with gravestones of those that didn’t.
Man! What powerful legs you guys got! Day by day climbing and climbing in this suffer fest of mountains. This adventure was amazing!!! Awesome. Congratulations to you both. And your crew for the filming and edition.
Amazing video VC. The quality of the storytelling and photography is just great. Been watching you for years now and the evolution of your content and journey it's just so inspirational to me and I bet to many others. You need to learn some español, amigo. Wishing you the best from Mexico City!

These videos you make are great, but an hour and 38 minutes for one video? Perhaps it's time to make multi-part videos for these.
Keep them this long!!!
I love riding with these. It's like having a friend without needing to really coordinate with anyone. I've watched these routes quite a few times and they don't get old. Thank you.
Love the vids and silly stupid brutal stuff you lads do its inspiring, been waiting for you to come back on the tube bro, cant wait to watch this tmoz 😴😴 xx

it's insane that we get to watch these videos for free, the production and story telling is amazing! some of the best videos on youtube love them
Yeah, that's truee!♥️
Totally agree
If it’s Free, you are the product hehe. In RUclipss case you get sold to the ads. But it’s a small price for this amazing content imo
Seriously.. these are the best!!

Do you really think the guy is ashamed of himself?
He makes a living by exhibiting himself.

Cannot thank you and your family enough. True hospitality and THE resource for gravel rides in the Pyrenees! 🍻
You tell me when you guys are coming over. I'll be there, and as you 2 are really good you might just keep up with this old guy.😜🤣👌🏻

Thanks for inspiring us to push farther and enjoy the ride. I have fallen in love with gravel and adventure riding and your channel has been a big part of it. I have always appreciated your honesty in film making. These impossible routes have been one of my favorite things to watch on RUclips.
Speechless. Simply speechless. Thank you. God bless.
It's always a highlight to watch your films. I get so inspired by the hard work you put in. And as always you never disappoint. I've said it once and I'll say it again, it's ok to fail. And you demonstrate that it's not about losing it's about how you comeback from a set back. As always I can't wait to see the next one and untill then I'll be following you on IG and Strava. Thanks again so much!!!
Perfect film. The scenery, the story, the route, even the music! Big big kudos. Best bike movies ever!
I have loved all your videos, but this one is off the charts. This should be on Netflix. The inspiration you give, your pro tips on being vegan, and loving your family. I wish I had a more "wordy" vocabulary too. I really don't know the words to describe how much I love this movie, the love, the messages, and the life lessons. Just watching this changes my world, I cannot imagine being your world-turning wheels. Keep them coming.
Legen....wait for it.......dary! Another epic adventure in the book of life. VC, you're gonna have endless stories to share around the table when you're 95.
Well worth the wait and as expected an epic adventure with highs and lows of racing, breathtaking scenery complemented by a truly amazing route. This is why your video’s are head and shoulders above all other cycling vids.
Tyler, Jeremiah, this is the Best one Yet! A true Masterpiece! Motivation for the cycling Nation! Chapeau! 🍾🍾🍾😎
I have been critical of the relationship between VC and Jeremiah in a previous video (Hellride) but this destroyed that myth, the relationship comes shining through. This is yet another inspirational video that makes you just want to jump on your bike and do crazy shit.
Thanks John Tailwinds!
Best impossible route yet 👏 you guys really knocked it off the scale with this one. Each episode inspires and ignites the imagination, the editing and production becomes more polished to the point where I genuinely think you could / should be doing a Netflix series soon. 🙏
France didn’t disappoint for me this year either, I did a 6 day trip in the Alps but as a fellow Vegan I did suffer with food choices, luckily I had packed a lot of food to take with me but I still lost 3kgs in 6 days. I ate a lot of salad 😂
If you ever fancy a trip to the Uk I will happily open my home up to you if you needed somewhere to stay 👍
Absolutely brilliant! You guys are legends and an inspiration to cyclists and humans everywhere... Thanks for telling such fantastic stories!
From a Spanish guy living in France, just Thank you for sharing.
A couple years ago I watched your saddle guide. Watching you while I grow as a cyclist has been interesting as we diverged and now in some ways converge on gravel endurance. This is an incredible video and what makes it is your honesty. Thanks for these
Thank you for your videos
On a 10 month recovery journey
Your videos have kept my enthusiasm for cycling alive! Awesome video
Great job as always. It is an inspiring ride and video! But... the on screen map is way off. You rode the length of the Pyrenees in the bottom left corner of France.
I can't put into words what I saw! Absolutely unbelievable, powerful, emotional, it's like in other realms! I know these feelings when cycling, just on a deeper sporting level. I think it is above all the absolute connection with nature and creation. I am so thankful that I found you. I wish you only the best...
Awesome work guys, I am so very proud of you and hope you guys feel the same! Not only physically but also mentally admirable what you put into this project. Thanks so much for the great movie! Been following you a while now from Germany and am glad you produce this content for us.
Although, I've to tell you that the geographical illustrations of France are not quite accurate. The Pyrenees are located in the south western part of France seperating France from Spain. So by riding through them you get from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean Coast but not all the way to the Eastern part of France.
Anyway keep it up dude and I am looking forward to your next projects.
Might be my favorite Impossible Route. The visuals were incredible and the storytelling was great. Great job VC (and JB)!
Very moving, heart-warming, and uplifting to see the experience in which you and Jeremiah experienced France and Spain. Congratulations, and thank you for sharing such an epic journey.
Best one yet boys. You captured not only the epic story and adventure, but, more importantly, you thoroughly explored and crystallized exactly what makes all of us love this crazy sport. Chapeau, Chapeau, Chapeau.
Yes! I have a movie to watch tonight on my big projector. Thank you, Tyler!
You guys keep providing the inspiration to keep turning the pedals, no matter the obstacles. Pain is inevitable. Fear is a choice.
Unreal effort and amazing watch. Having grown up in the Pyrenees, I can't describe how great it is to see you and Jeremiah evolving through all those familiar towns and landscapes!
Jeremiah and Tyler, you're both greatly inspirational fine athletes.
The talk at 55 minutes, by Jeremiah is so key. What a great team mate to have with you. Earlier on, I also loved Tyler's statement about failing. It's easy to not fail - just don't try anything hard. Very, very true.
Being a cyclist and vegan myself for almost 10 years - It's really nice to see those gains you've made on trough all these EPIC impossible routes. This was a special treat, like all og them cinematography and storytelling on point.
Simply wonderful. Thank you, VC, JB, crew, and sponsors. Just amazing and giving me many ideas on future adventures.
Feel privileged to witness such display of vulnerability, transparency, and mindblowingingancy.
Oh snap! Saving this one for later! Can’t wait!
Coming from Germany I think it’s hilarious to hear you talk about the many features of France and, well, Europe with such awe and fascination. Anyway. What a fantastic experience, a true joy to watch. I totally get your frustration and emotional turmoil but, man, it was so very obvious how you’d literally spent everything you had up to that point (talking about you cracking). Makes me want to get out and do more! 🔥 Oh, also, that scene with the cattle (race 3, day 2) is gold! Last addition: You deserve so many more views for this!!
Awesome film of a fantastic route which brought back some incredible memories for me. Did more or less the same route waaaay back in 1990, bike packing on old school mountain bikes. Took us 10 days! Looking forward to the next one.
What an enjoyable video. I could watch while on my trainer and get to see scenes that I will never cycle. Thanks!
Amazing film Tyler. So happy you enjoy your Time in my playground. No so sure about the mapping when it’s say we are there 😅. Alex from Pau Pyrénées
The stoke is so high after this. Thank you both for giving us this opportunity to experience the highs and lows of this adventure. And what a beautiful one it was. You honestly couldn’t get two more likable characters to bring this to life. And the competition aspect def added a fantastic element to the route.
Until the next one…..I will be waiting with baited breathe. Congrats and f-ing well done boys.
What a journey ! Thank you for sharing these magical moments and landscapes with us. Bravo for going so far in the effort.
My second time watching this, absolutely love it! I lived in Germany for 12 years and cycled all over the place and this brings back so many memories…. Miss that lifestyle so much!
Awesome....very inspirational, beautiful scenery & very well done. Thanks
Damn! It has been a lot of fun to watch these impossible route videos and see Tyler grow as a cyclist. Can’t wait for the next one!
The gravel roads of the pyrenees definitely on the bucket list after watching that. Simply stunning
What a beautiful film. The riding. The beautiful countryside. Those shots and editing. 🤌🤌
Thanks for sharing the humanity of it all.
Ist was so much fun to watch it 👌🏻🚴🏻♂️! Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪!
Thanks, simply amazing trip. What's 30 feet between friends. Good to see you in europe, UK Lake District would give you some fun. Keep up the amazing work really spurs me on to do more cycle and adventure stuff.
Thank you! 🎉 I have a few concepts hatching for a UK route. Hints found in further adventures in the rough stuff book. 😊
The best one yet!!! Chapeau!
Awesome, massive effort !!! Truely inspiring ! Can't wait for my next adventure, crossing France from North east to South west next year. I was really interested of how you would get vegan food in the Pyrenees, I'm doing ultra cycling and I am vegan as well, I often struggle to find proper decent vegan food in rural areas of France :)
Allez les végés (taliens et véganes, pour moi ça fait 17 ans !).
This is unbelievably good Tyler! I even almost cried at some point. You guys are amazing. Congratulations my friend !
Just the thought of being able to ride the Tourmalet literally brings tears to my eyes...even more than Alpe d'Huez and Ventoux - those are brutal but just do not have the same mystique, at least to me, watching the Tour since even the Jonathan Boyer days.....yea, I'm really THAT old....!!!! Viva Jacque Boyer!!!
This is more than awesome. Thank you guys for inspiring people all over the world to challenge the limits. Big fan from COLOMBIA.
Absolutely killed it boys. The quality of the filming and the emotion of the ride from start to finish really is motivational. Thanks for the time and you and your crew put into the whole process.
Really enjoyed this. A big thanks to the entire team and families that made this possible !
Absolutely phenomenal!! Congrats on this exceptional piece of ART!
loving these IR - so well done and getting better the lows and the very lows might the highs seem so much higher ....cant wait to next one
This is a masterpiece! So nicely done in every way... the music, the feelings transferred, the scenery... Thank you for making me love cycling and inspiring me to love life. Keep up the good work, I can't have enough of your videos!
This is the best episode of Impossible Route. Tyler rides like and beast and there are plenty of entertaining moments, plus some plenty of highs and lows. Great stuff
I was waiting so much for a new episode… And damned, when watching this one, I just realize how much I was actually missing it!!! So great content as usual and production on top of it! Just thanks for remembering every time how great it is to ride our bikes!
So amazing for Canyon to sponsor and support all of these “impossible” films. Every mountaineer who has turned around knows this pain and guilt (ask me how I know). The bases of all majestic peaks are littered with gravestones of those that didn’t.
Man! What powerful legs you guys got! Day by day climbing and climbing in this suffer fest of mountains. This adventure was amazing!!! Awesome. Congratulations to you both. And your crew for the filming and edition.
Just pure epicness as usual. Fantastic video, editing, music, commentary.. Freakin everything is just 👌🏻
Yeah! I've been waiting for another episode of the impossible route... you just made my day! 👍
🙌☠🇫🇷
Amazing video VC. The quality of the storytelling and photography is just great. Been watching you for years now and the evolution of your content and journey it's just so inspirational to me and I bet to many others.
You need to learn some español, amigo.
Wishing you the best from Mexico City!
