Thats maybe the most beautiful bike touring videos ive see. Beautiful BC scenery and great camera work..and some great shots of critters.
NAILED IT!
This video has the best film,making I’ve seen from a Canadian cycle tour! Awesome experience, watching it, I could’ve listened to it blindfolded and your descriptions would’ve nailed, exactly what I thought i would see!
Would have loved to see more of who you are on the view seem like a very interesting person, hope to see more videos!!!
😊
Hello. Loved the video. Did you use a gravel bike? If so what specs? Brand? What type of rack system for your packs? This has inspired me. Thank you!
I watched each of the four videos you've posted on your cross Canada cycling series and they're all incredibly entertaining and well documented! Fantastic job Nathan both on the videos and also your incredibly impressive cycling skills, unstoppable spirit, and sense of adventure!
Super well told and incredibly shot... Nathan, you've earned yourself a new subscriber with this one. Can't wait for some more episodes!
amazing Trip ! did you Camp in a tent (did you have to reserve the campsites beforehand ?) or where did you sleep ? would be so grateful for this information !:)
Thank you very much!! Yes, sleeping in tent and in Warmshowers. There are lots of municipal campgrounds through the prairies. You can go in late at night and leave early in the morning under the radar. Alternatively ask if people will let you camp on their site. Wild camping whenever possible of course is also amazing. In Ontario in the summer most provincial park sites will be full, and are absurdly expensive anyways. Wild camping or asking to join a site is the way to go.
Best of luck on your trip! I saw your post in the bikepacking group. Join “biking across Canada” as well. It’s much more active, and your questions will be happily answered there quickly. Feel free to message me on Instagram as well, I’ll get back a bit faster. Cheers :)
Great ride Nathan. Looks good. I'm curious why you stopped after Ep 4?
Awesome achievement and a very nice video! I am planning a similar trip this summer. My biggest concern is regarding the bears. Did you have any close encounters? And did you take any precautions like bear spray etc.?
Amazing footage! Cool to see my backyard in there
This video is absolutely beautiful. Amazing work, can’t wait for the other videos!
I will be biking through BC this year, and I'm debating between Crowsnest Highway and the TCH. I am willing to cover a longer distance if it means less steep climbs. What is your opinion, or if anyone knows.
Nice! -- QUESTION -- Can you please do a bike review and show how and what you pack. Sort of an in depth review of what it takes to do all of this riding (or at least your setup)?
Great video! I can't imagine how many times you stopped, set the camera, passed in front of it, and returned.
Amazing video! Im inspired to do something similar someday. How did you prepare for your trip?
Much appreciated. Lots of research on route and watching videos for inspiration and tips. Some shorter practice tours and a good base fitness then just set off. Getting out the door is the hardest step. Everything afterwards comes naturally
Cinematography is on point. That's a lot of work. Fantastic job man, thank you for sharing.
Some amazing footage and awesome sites! We hope to ride through here this summer. Where did you begin and end the KVR?
Great video/photography, but I would love to see your routes etc.
This video / documentation is awesome. Deserves more views .
Did you tent camp this whole time ?
Superb footage! The shot of you passing through the frog's eye was particularly masterful. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Nice ride! I am interested in your entire route. Do you have it mapped out? Would you be willing to share? Thanks.
Absolutely amazing job on this production. You have a great eye for catching the surrounding beauty and a talent for editing.
What a journey you captured, thanks for sharing. 👍🏼🇨🇦🔥
Merci beaucoup c'est les plus belles vidéos de cyclotourisme que j'ai vue fantastique Bravo ! Tes vraiment génial 💙
One of the most scenic and well commentated videos I have seen. Looking forward to seeing your journey through Ontario! (The TC from the Manitoba border to Sudbury terrifies me!)
Awesome video well put together.... BC is a beautiful province and you captured it perfectly.
Do you have maps or resources used for your route?
What a journey. Womderful.
👍👍👍🚴🚴🚴🥰🥰🥰🥰
I hope you get many more views ~ millions ~ but to be honest, I kind of expected more from the point of view of cycling. I'm only a few minutes in and see a lot of scenery, which looks nice. I've lived in Victoria and Nanaimo and live in Vancouver now. I suppose this video wouldn't be nearly as nice if it wasn't edited and shown from a particular point of view. I didn't recognize the path around the Vancouver Convention Centre at first but found it on Google Maps and it doesn't look that pristine when you're actually there. Good luck to you.
Canada’s nature is so beautiful it almost hurts my eyes
This is really well shot, I also like your narration/voice.
Beautiful video! I'm also following you on Strava. I've postponed returning from Laos for 2 years due to CoVid etc..., but I'm going to come home in 2023 to do my own Trans Canada cycling trip. For now, I'll have to settle to live vicariously through your posts and videos. ☺️🇨🇦🚴♂️
Great camera work and cut. Thanks also for sharing the GPS track.

Hi Nathan! Bc is so beautiful province. Can you share your road on ridewithgps? What is the side of your tire that you recommand for your trip in BC? Thank you.
Hi. The ridewithgps routemap is included in the description :). I rode with 45mm tires, and I recommend 40+ for the gravel riding in BC.
Cool
Not sure if you remember me, We chatted at a small cafe in Hope B.C. You were talking about this fantastic journey across Canada on your bike. As a tourist to hope from Winnipeg, I really had my doubts. Because I know how harsh the weather can get out east. I was exited to see today on instagram that you finished your journey. Props to you Nathan, And I'm exited to see the rest of this series.
Excellent movie!👏
good stuff, thnx.
Amazing video! We did the same this summer and went through a number of the same places as you only a week earlier! You captured the beauty well. We are doing province by province videos as well to help others in their efforts to plan ~ yours will help the gravel planners indeed! Can’t wait to watch your future films! Thank you!
Amazing views of British Columbia love it, also good physique needed with all these climbs and a fully packed bike, kudos.
Nice
Great meeting you this morning on the last leg of your amazing journey! Hope you enjoy your stay in Newfoundland.
It's an awesome bikepacking experience you have. Warm greetings from The Special Territory of Yogyakarta, Indonesia.
Spectacular! Your videos are awesome. Wonderful experience indeed! Ride safe my friend..
So glad for the random RUclips recommendation. Magnificent filmmaking, Nathan!
Incredible video Nathan! We met a long time ago on a VOC trip so you probably don't remember me, but I've been quietly following along on your journey! So awesome keep it up!
Just came across your ride. Beautiful photography. Thanks
A lot of extra effort into getting those shots. Masterclass in film making. Did you even enjoy your bike tour between shots? I sure I enjoyed watching it.
Wow!!!!!!!!!! Stunning!!!!!!!!!!! Your videography is spectacular! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Wow, completely amazing video. Congratulations and excellent work! Looking forward to the next ones 😀
Thanks Julien!!!
wow congratulations on making such a beautiful video and also biking from Fernie to Coleman did you go from Fernie to Sparwood through the trail cuz that's some pretty epic riding for a bike like yours
Chapeau great video, I rode in the Bc epic1000km bikepacking race from Merritt to Fernie using most of this route .Thanks for posting.
One of the most entertaining bike packing videos I’ve seen! Amazing storytelling, great shots and just overall enjoyable! Thank you!
Very nice. A few years ago I had watched a documentary on how many former rail lines in the UK were being converted into bike trails. I did not know the same thing was going on here. Looking forward to watching you whole series.
Just finished riding with you through BC, looking forward to AB and more provinces to come. Great commentary, I learned a few things about BC I didn't know. Thanks.
Hi Nathan .... good work .good photography
That's great camera and video work. Excellent! It makes me want to do some cycle touring/exploring!
I’ve absolutely love your videos been waiting for more and more. Very inspiring videos that shows how beautiful Canada really is. I was wonder if you had a video or can make one that breaks down from your bike setup to the equipment and gears you are using on this trip. Been wanting to do a bikepacking trip. Thanx for these videos keep on riding 🤙🏻
Stunning! Absolutely beautiful video, what an incredible trip, thanks heaps for taking us along for the ride 😎🚴🏻♂️
Amazing and incredible vedio! Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful!
I am planning my very first long ride starting in Canmore to Vancouver. Grey Creek Pass is a heavily anticipated section, and very happy to be heading that way through August!
What bike did you use for your trip ?
Beautiful film! Thank you for sharing it with us. Stunning cinematography and excellent storytelling. An absolute joy to watch.
Watched both videos, fantastic 👏. I'm looking forward to the next one
Awesome photography.Thank you.
Great job Nathan, wonderful scenery and a nice route, beautifully shot. Can only imagine what a pain it must have been to keep settling up the tripod! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the trip.
Do you have your actual route, Ride with GPS?, or GPX files? Is this part of the BC Trail?
the shot where you and your bike are reflected in the frog's eye! crazy!
I am awed by the scenery. I am awed by your tenacity. I am captivated by the whole experience. You make me wish I was there on my bike experiencing BC like you. Thank you for sharing this with us.
One of the best bike touring video I’ve seen. Shots are amazing. This is lots of work, thanks for this! 🎉
great video and the drone shots are perfect. thanks
Magnificent videography! So good.
Absolutely incredible video can’t wait to see the rest
Poetry in motion. Therapy. Meditation.
Just found this video. Magnificent filming. Excellent narration. So many familiar places. Thank you for sharing
Fabulous images.
My in-laws live in Hope. I’m in London uk. This summer I cycled part of where you went in this video. KVR. And all the way to Seattle.
Wow! What a great video! Amazing so well put together!
Amazing video! Thanks
Magnificent scenery, thanks for sharing!
Such a beautiful and well made video 👍
Absolutely beautiful shots!
Nice video.
Thank you so much for sharing your trip, I've ridden most of this route and it was great seeing it through your eyes. Fantastic footage and editing 👍👍
I will be cycling across Canada next year I have planned this trip for more than ten years
You have a gift on top of a heckuva hobby! Unreal video
Good job m8
Thanks, I will look at all your videos. This summer was warmer here (New-Brunswick) than usual, There was also a heat wave in the west.
Cheers, this is the first video of many! And yes, atypical weather across the country this year it seems. I’ll be in New Brunswick in a couple weeks!
Good luck we looking for next video
What a beautiful bicycle touring video wao,!
Eagerly waiting for the next episode.
What's the make of the bicycle?
Sure liked your video and explanation of your route. | tracked your route with garmin base camp. I was wondering about getting food between penticton and midway were there any places to buy groceries. Thanks for posting and your explanation which will help me plan my bike trip from calgary to vancouver. cheers
There is a general store in Beaverdell, although it was closed when I passed through. There are also a couple shops and cafes in Rock Creek. On the trail, there are also wineries in Naramata, and the Chute Lake Lodge.
@@nathanstarzynski thank
Fantastic! Looking at this.
Would a recumbent trike be able to do this route you biked?
This is a mixed gravel route that involves some parts of singletrack riding. And also pieces together many different trail sections. A trike could handle some sections, but definitely not ideal for through travel.
@@nathanstarzynski is there a trans canada route that is more suited for biketouring on asphalt?
