You two are amazing! Traffic, hot weather, a headwind and carrying bikes upstairs! Riding in weather like that is tough! Cool cafes, especially the first one! Be safe and have fun!
Thanks! 😁
Congrats to both of you for completing the first day, and especially to Thuong. I know a lot of male riders who are strong cyclists, and I don't think they could have done that ride. I'm looking forward to seeing day 2.
Thank you! Thuong is super tough 😁
Amazing accomplishment on day one of your backpacking adventure, Cruise and Thuong! Riding 160K in the intense heat and cross/headwinds is no joke! 👏👏👏
Thanks! 💪
Finding your videos couldn't come at a better time. I had bariatric sleeve surgery so I have been bicycling for exercise and now ive been hooked on cycling. So now I have a goal where i'm training and preparing myself for next year to ride from New York City to Albany on the Empire State trail. Your videos are inspirational Thank you.
Thanks and good luck with your goal!
What a fantastic couple. I don’t know much Vietnam places and cultures. because of your amazing videos i learned something new. Enjoy your time.
Thank you!
Enjoy guys. Ride safe always 🙏
Some hotels here in the Philippines also have the window to the shower feature. We rode 100k here in the central Philippines yesterday, so I can relate to the heat and humidity you guys are experiencing . Enjoying your tour so far.😊
God to know 😂
Nice to see more of Vietnam
Awesome fortitude on a ride like this
I really miss these long rides of you both
More to come 😁
Excited for these bikepacking tour videos!
😁
Thuong's English keeps getting better. Great vid - really hot weather must be hard. I burn easily as well, always a struggle. I find that going out early helps a bit as the UV index is lower.
Very educational and entertaining! Safe travels! I can't wait to see the next episode!
Wow! looking forward to this epic journey.
😁
I probably mentioned this before, (In reference to your feed stops) I think cyclists appreciate a proper meal after a proper bike ride more than any other. In fact, thinking about it motivates me as I’m out training. On another note, I think you mentioned something about handlebar ends. I have them on my retro mountain bike. They feel natural in the hands. I love them and wish they would bring them back. Lastly, if I road in 40C heat with humidity, I would melt like Jabba the Hutt on tarmac! Heat is my arch-nemesis. Keep those arm covers on, no doubt!
Felt like we were melting into the ground at some points 😂
160. !!! She is amazing.
💪
gr8 episode
looking forward to Day 2
It looks like a great tour . . . in wintertime. You two are made of strong stuff. I do my daily rides early to be back inside before the feels-like temperature climbs to 30 C.
The food looks tasty. Time to visit a Vietnamese restaurant! 🙂
Stay safe and keep the videos coming.
Yeah winter would be a lot more comfortable
Awesome cafe, stop!!
Great job you two, looked brutal going in that heat. it is amazing how a headwind can effect your time. My wife and I did a ride that took us two hours each way (also with overnight stay at a hotel), so the next time we rode that route we planned on a two hour ride time. but the headwind all the way increased our ride to over four hours, and the next day on the ride home the wind had changed direction, was resulted in a headwind all the way home with more gradients, increasing the ride to four and a half hours. luckily we was not tied to a schedule, but it shows the impact the wind can have.
Yeah, it can really be huge especially if you keep riding in the same direction for the whole ride. It's the worst when the headwind follows you each day, which of course happened to us 😂
Thanx. You both did well in the heat. I envy you as I cannot be outside stationary above 34C much less riding. I am in Ontario your next door neighbour of Michigan.
Thanks! Looking forward to the cooler weather there
love the bikepacking series.
😁
Well done you two ! It is pretty hard yo keep motivated in such crushing heat !
Try switching to aero gloves which have longer cuffs and are easy to slip on and off. They are terrific to avoid getting nastily burnt by the sun. I could not manage otherwise.
Thanks! Aero gloves sound like a really good idea
I look forward to every episode! You've managed your pace pretty well for that distance 💪
Small note: red is a good color as it doesn't absorb sun's energy, black sleeves maybe not 😅 You can google the effect of heat on different t-shirt colors to see all colors.
Thanks! We just used what we had and they did the job
I'm in Danang now! It's so hot!! 🤣
Looking forward to the Fireworks festival this weekend!
Haha welcome! 😂 I'm not joking when I complain in our videos about how hot and humid it is here.
I have been in Đà Nẵng 1973 in this beach reminds me when I was 20 yrs old working at the airport. Just a memory only.
Hey Safe travels you two 🤙🇬🇧
Thank you!
Awesome! Thank you for taking us with you guys on this trip! Made me dream of riding in Vietnam on this Sunday morning in Canada. Looking forward for the next videos. Ride safe!
Our pleasure!
It's way too hot over there rn. Be happy you're in Canada! A nice cool mid 20s celcius with a breeze here in Quebec City. Nothing better. Cant wait to be back in Vietnam when its reasonable in DN around November-March
i would highly recommend to put on a anti-sway stabilizer for the road bike, it will seriously help to stable the backpack on road bike.
Thanks, that sounds like it’d be helpful
Great video 😊
Thanks! 😊
"Good morning Vietnam!" Where did I hear that before? Lol.
Both of you are champs for doing this! Be sure to apply sunscreen every hour or two that's how I survive here in Indonesia by cycling everywhere. I haven't done any bikepacking myself but I am jealous!
Thanks! We kept pouring it on 😂
🥰 Muito Bom Gostei demais de assistir!
I was on a bike trail once with my face completely covered by a couple of those tubes on my head and neck (I think it was getting cold at the end of a sunny day) plus sunglasses and I audibly spooked a woman walking when she turned around as I passed. 😱
Feels so good once the sun goes down
Look forward to u tub tonight.pleased your able to do u tub soon we are expecting our soon to be American 🇺🇸 em Thuong a great lady personally a great sister a young lady !keep up your cycling u tubs make sure English is on your thoughts you have a professional in home English instructor a good gentleman good Man!!!!paul

😮
🏖️🏖️🏖️🏖️🏖️🏖️🏖️
What happened to the common N to S winds?? LOL.. Real nice start otherwise. Disappointing you just blew thru Quang Ngai.
Like I said, her full top tube bag wouldn't last long.
I was also doing a 100 mile ride in 11 hours when you were sleeping that morning.
We were too hungry and tired to check it out unfortunately 😞
cool vlog! it looks like nice bike coffee shops there. You guys brave, why don't you start riding early like 5am when heat is not that bad?
Because we were still getting ready until around midnight 😂 It's also nice to finish the ride when it's cooling down
😃👍
Looks like an efficient set-up I'm wondering if you've tried a single wheel trailer like the Yakima trailers, and if so do you think they might be a better option than panniers? I Use a 'Yak' single wheel trailer occasionally and it's pretty aerodynamic compared to strapping bags on the front and sides of the frame and seems to make the bike more stable.
I’ve never tried them, but they look like a good option to carry more or larger items.
From a cycling perspective the video is excellent but I do wonder how Thuong is really doing on what many women and even men would regard as quite a two wheel crucible in all that heat. Stay safe.
Are you suggesting women are particularly unsuited to bikepacking and touring in hot conditions? Unbelievably misogynistic.
@@amyl7113 I wouldn’t take my beautiful wife/girlfriend on a grueling bicycle touring trip. Not so sure I would take myself on a trip like this. Thuong looks quite distressed at the little restaurant stop at around 12:35. She held up way better than I would have. So no misogyny here just calling them as I see them.
@@dolittle6781 Some men and women chose to push themselves on a bike! I'm glad Cruise and Thuong seem to be enjoying their first bike tour, and it's to be expected that you'd eventually end up a little distressed after a hard effort on the bike in this sort of heat. Suggesting that Thuong (who seems to be an incredibly capable and strong cyclist) is somehow not as suited to bike touring because *she is a woman* - that is what I take offence at. If anything she should be more acclimated to the heat as she has been in Vietnam the whole time, while Cruise has been in the States for a stretch.
You thought she suffered here, just wait till you see the next video 😂 the heat was worse than we imagined, but we gradually found a rhythm and got used to it. Overall, we’re both really glad we did this trip while we could
@@TwoWheelCruiseTrue. You are making great memories together! One day you’ll enjoy yourselves just laughing about how much fun you had!😊
You should have started with these earlier, tho maybe you can do some in US 😅 fun to watch
Yes, always worried about heat and logistics but glad we finally did it
👍👍👍
Hard bikepacking day. temperature, headwind and still an average speed of 23.6 over 160 kilometers
It was a pretty hard day especially with the heat and wind
Hopefully you're learning to eat more regularly - smaller snacks, more often; eat before you're hungry.
Yes, very important and hard to do in the heat
The heat is also gonna cause your heart rate to rise. The weather looks brutal.
Yeah, Vietnamese summer heat is brutal
till today i am still in mystery to think why when we got expose by sun so much it make our skin darker. if human body try to adapt why it not turn the opposite tone like become more brighter, what i understand light color will deflect light more and make it more cooler. this thing puzzling me why. for me the color is already being permanent because i did not wear cloth a lot when work under the sun.
Hey cruise i have a question im 18 and wanna start cyclling but i have a vintage apollo bike from 1980s i know a modern bike his better but does this affect speed and how tired i would be that much?
Those bikes are still fast. The main disadvantage is less space for larger more comfy tires
I bet that bag on one side at the back feels odd - lopsided
Don't notice it at all while riding
Buon appetito
😋
