My wife is Thai and it's nice to see your riding around her hometown, 11.35 she recognized the uniform of the students who's riding the motorbike, we can also see the latex three and other fruit three on the background. The panel said do not overtake by car (dangerous in the mountain) Great to see you have nice time here 🤙
These three guys remind me of Kirk, Spock, and Bones from Star Trek. In every episode, they arrive at a new, unknown place and have the most amazing adventures there. Lawrence is, of course, the cool Spock, Francis is Kirk, and James is the slightly quirky Bones. Boldly go where no man has gone before. 😀
I'm not surprised by the broken spoke. Even without tents etc the bikes look a bit loaded and I believe James has 24 spoke wheels. I would never undertake such a trip on anything less than 32 spoke wheels and I carry a Fiberfix spoke repair kit, although I've never had to use it.
The only time I didn’t get wistful at the end of a tour was when we toured for 6 weeks. We were ready to come home after that one. But anything under 3 weeks, and I find the last few days of a tour are tinged with sadness. And the post-tour hangover generally lasts as long as the tour. This has been a very fun series. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride!
The road to Phuket crosses the South's width from sea coast along Gulf of Thailand to Andaman sea, thus it is only 2 lanes but beautiful views. I did cross twice during my 2 times biking from Bangkok with about 70 riders to commemorate tsunami tragedy, once after 3 months and another after one year's anniversary.
We Filipino will love you guy's to try making project Philippines 🇵🇭🥰 Cycling is our 2nd love passion hubby... Many foreign try riding here they say? It's cycling paradise ❤❤❤
It’s been great to watch this trip makes me want to get my next trip, unfortunately it won’t be 3 weeks in a tropical environment, 3-4 days somewhere in the UK probably get just as wet though!
Two things are certain about your trip. Youre all having a great time together (thanks for sharing) and your luggage is so high it can fly home by itself 🤢😷
My only issue with CDC jerseys (what James wears) is that the rear pockets terminate so high up the back you need to have amazing arm flexibility to use them comfortably.
James has this posture quirk, like the wrong part of his back arches when he's hunched. I seem to have the same predicament. What's that? Is that a bad thing? Are there ways to alleviate that problem?
Great roadtrip guys! Really enjoyed following your adventures. But my advice would be don’t go to Phuket. It’s overrated and overcrowded. Go to Koh Lanta or Khao Lak instead. You won’t be disappointed. Ride safe! 👍🏻
Dogs? Peru they chase, Nepal they are chill, and in Iceland, New Zealand, Switzerland, Italy no on trail dog interactions. In the US, it's very dependent on location and if owner is there on trail, but there are actual trail dogs that are awesome. But wildlife here in the western US is more of a concern out on mtb trails: bears, mt lions, rattlers, etc.
So why does James sound like Justin and cycles like Ben... has anyone else noticed... Who's the parents 👀 James, tip of the day in 38 degrees, don't wear a casquette under your helmet!!!
Thailand looks amazing. Shame its hotter than Satan's taint though. My people where made for the forests of northern Europe and, hence, wouldn't do well there.
Really liked the last tour in India... tbh though this one a lot (a lot) less... too much like a British lads stag night vibe on bikes... but hey, hope you're having a nice time
I don’t want it be over. I selfishly want to see you daily, riding your bikes through the world and being as honest, funny and beautiful as you are.
green coke is regular coke sweetened with stevia instead of sugar
Didn't they used to sell that in the UK? Coke Life? Haven't seen it in years though
It was a thing in Australia for a while, but now green label is coke no sugar with lime.
Which also means it’s totally useless for cycling as it has zero carbs in it!
I tried raw Stevia straight of the plant once, thought I was high for a few hours. No, it wasn't weed.

When you said "What could possibly go wrong?" I was waiting for the the cut where something went wrong. Glad I was wrong.
This was the most delirious i've seen James so far! He's lost it! Love it 😂
As soon as James said ride in the jungle, we both thought CCR at the same time. Love it !
The irony of James telling Lawrence to stop talking
Well done gents, why does Lawrence look like he could do the whole journey again? Whilst James's decent into madness is almost complete.
I must admit that James’ mental uncoiling is rather entertaining!😂😂😂
I have been away for ages ! Great to see the lads trekking, making memories 💪🏼✊🏼✅🚴🏼
lol James’s bombastic side eye
😒😂
Like seeing Lawrance in all the difference moods!

This has been like a vlog series on James under ‘Cade Media’ I’m sure you will owe him some royalties 😂 great stuff guys!
Aw well rides got to end sometime, lovely bit of road and views for the second from last day. Humidity getting to James😅

Loved following your trip….. making memories with friends is the best 👍
14 episodes in and this the first episode that showed up on my feed, RUclips slacking
The sign says: "Limited vision range. Do not overtake"
I can't think why Lawrence would get on so well with other dogs.
Ooo looking forward to see this after work. Yes I noticed James' back wheel was wobbling like crazy in the last video.
You need to finish this ride up so you can get James back before the next full moon .

The scenery at 7:05 😍😍😍

Cycling is our 2nd love passion hubby... Many foreign try riding here they say? It's cycling paradise ❤❤❤
Lawrence's last comment pretty much summed it up for me.
Lawrence is ace
It’s been great to watch this trip makes me want to get my next trip, unfortunately it won’t be 3 weeks in a tropical environment, 3-4 days somewhere in the UK probably get just as wet though!
Enjoying the 7-11 tour.
Matey boy at 6:08 reminds me of me in my GCSE French Oral exam.
I think that's the first time I've heard Francis say "Snake!" in a video and there actually be a snake 🤣
No Lawrence, James is not okay.
That zoom in of James’s facial expression 😂
This would've been a nice opportunity for a test and review of the fiberfix spoke 😀
Oh I'm glad the sun has come out to play again. Almost there. Final run in through Kao Lak tomorrow is it?
“Jesus turned water into wine” 😂😂😂😂
And on today's episode of Bikepacking 7-Eleven: Chuckit in the Phuket Bucket!
Well done, lads...! Enjoy going to back to a frosty UK, whilst us guys who live here, turn the air con on....
Hi Francis, what was the portable electric pump you used and which episode what is thanks.
I love to watch your trip! 😊 Francis, what is the model of your Oakley?
Great series, thanks 😊
Two things are certain about your trip. Youre all having a great time together (thanks for sharing) and your luggage is so high it can fly home by itself 🤢😷
What DOES a Phuket Party entail?
Broken spoke is pronounced 'spoken' :)
My only issue with CDC jerseys (what James wears) is that the rear pockets terminate so high up the back you need to have amazing arm flexibility to use them comfortably.
Thanks Francis Be safe
6:52 that snake saw the Anaconda Lawrence has coiled up in his cycling shorts and hauled ass.
Will you upload all the stages to Komoot or any other platform? I’ll be leaving for Thailand tomorrow and looking for some nice routes ✌🏼
Lawrence can be found on Strava
I usually stayed away from the random Coke flavors bc they were usually Zero Sugar (like the red with black writing one you drank at 9:20...)
I’m pretty sure that road sign you couldn’t read said, “Snakes! Everywhere snakes! So many, many horrid snakes!”
Nice flat smooth roads can you bring them back thanks
Next time pack a FiberFix Spoke. Takes no luggage space and you can temporarily replace the spoke with something that's tensioned.
Are your routes available anywhere?
First! Love the trip fellas!
Second... just sat down, end of the day and whoopy, my favourite RUclipsr just released! :)
James does have a whole Kurtz Heart of Darkness thing going on.
No please don’t be over😢
11:20 Definitely not Bromptons. I note you have a B75 in your media studio, do you ever ride it?
James isn't fat.
a little
He's underweight
James is what Mark Cavendish is going to carry like in 10 years
@@tomasz8935 lol exactly
James has this posture quirk, like the wrong part of his back arches when he's hunched. I seem to have the same predicament. What's that? Is that a bad thing? Are there ways to alleviate that problem?
Seriously, 7-11 should sponsor you. They've already gotten a bunch of free advertising!
'Let me stuff it away somewhere where it cannot be smelled.' -😐...😆
Great roadtrip guys! Really enjoyed following your adventures.
But my advice would be don’t go to Phuket. It’s overrated and overcrowded.
Go to Koh Lanta or Khao Lak instead. You won’t be disappointed.
Ride safe! 👍🏻
Those bikes are sounding a bit less quiet at this stage of the trip.
Project Taiwan next !
100 kg James + 100 kg Bike = poor Mavic wheels. Its a miracle only one spoke said gooood bye 😂
Bring longer videos. I get on the road that might difficult though.
James doesn't need to stop talking! Too damp funny.
Dogs? Peru they chase, Nepal they are chill, and in Iceland, New Zealand, Switzerland, Italy no on trail dog interactions. In the US, it's very dependent on location and if owner is there on trail, but there are actual trail dogs that are awesome. But wildlife here in the western US is more of a concern out on mtb trails: bears, mt lions, rattlers, etc.
i missed sick James 🤣
I’m no expert…..but I think that’s probably a white lipped Green Viper……highly venomous
Peacocks!
cheap Cube bike >>> overpriced titanium whatever James has 😄
If you pronounce Phuket phonetically your inner 14 year old boy will enjoy it.
They weren't Bromptons. ;-)
No upload today + no pod hmm
Come to Vietnam and join me when you have finished your bikepacking trip through Thailand 😅
It's so close and you haven't ridden too much 😂😂
Zip ties save the day again.
"Is he OK?" Not really sure.
How are you = Sabai dee mai krub
Has a broken spoke and peddles standing up.
The sign said, This sign is upside down.
It’s wingardium leviosaaa not leviosarr.
We are sentencing you to Remedial Brompton identifying class.
Lawrence... It's LeviOOOsa, not LeviosAAAH
So why does James sound like Justin and cycles like Ben... has anyone else noticed... Who's the parents 👀
James, tip of the day in 38 degrees, don't wear a casquette under your helmet!!!
How do you make a great day better? Listen to CCR.
Is it me, or are groups of British men just weird 😂
Thailand looks amazing. Shame its hotter than Satan's taint though. My people where made for the forests of northern Europe and, hence, wouldn't do well there.
🫶
The green can designate no sugar coca cola. No good....
It used to be stevia-sweetened Coke in out country called “Coca-Cola Life”.
James is such a bell end.
Speaks very highly of you
The last episode should be called “Lawrence and the Ladyboy”.
Wow, i didn't know that bike fit james was gay?
My thoughts exactly
Who cares? He’s James either way 😎
and you work in the bike industry that Brompton was a Tern
Really liked the last tour in India... tbh though this one a lot (a lot) less... too much like a British lads stag night vibe on bikes... but hey, hope you're having a nice time
