My dear Diego; I just met you an hour ago at the pizza place downtown San Diego. I am Marco Polo the Colombian guy and now that I am watching your video, I can see what I told you even that I didn't know who you were at that moment, but from my own experience and sensitivity that you where a real bike rider. Congratulations GOD put you in my path to be inspire by some one that is doing exactly what I will like to do for the rest of my life, whatever the time is left for me, before I go to heaven. I will be in touch with you to learn how I can increase my endurance even at my age 72, which is almost the age of any of your uncles, since you are younger than me. GOD BLESS YOU have a great life. I consider you my friend from this moment on.
Hello Marco Polo. It was great to meet you and your brother. Thank you for taking a look at my channel and finding it worth while. Hopefully it encourages you to try bicycle touring. I wish you and yours a great holiday season and safe travels
Thank you so much. I'm currently on tour across the country gathering content as usual. Should be an interesting time with the new bike and winter coming on. Thank you for your continuing support.
I’m thankful to see a post this morning. I hope that means you have weathered the hurricane. God bless. Thank you for being the quality person you seem to be. I’m sure everyone that meets you is better for it. Will keep watching for years to come.
Jon, you are very kind, thank you. The hurricane missed us in the Keys but inevitably it struck other in the Fort Myers area with serious consequences. They will rebuild and be stronger for it in the long run, I hope. Also, thank you for your support, you've been doing so for a long time. I hope to stay healthy and continue growing this channel and pushing anyone interested in the content to get out there and get passionate about anything healthy. It really fills the heart with that which it needs. Be well. Season 3 will hopefully come together before year's end. Be safe too, Jon
Hi Stefano. Yeah, it is fitting to say bicycle touring can be a "Big Plate Of everything". Love it. Thank you for watching my channel and your support all along. Stay safe out there
Ah, another epic episode Diego! I thoroughly enjoyed being a vicarious riding partner along with you. THANK YOU for the lessons along the way. Your videos are amazing as well as adding so many insights about the surroundings. You have become my cycling hero! I anticipate joining your trip to and thru Alaska. Be safe and God bless you.
Hi Verlin. Alaska had to wait. I was delayed by the new bike build and wanting to finish editing season 2 before leaving home. I started eight days ago from the Olympic Peninsula heading south and then east towards Utah. Should be interesting with winter coming on. Thank you for you continuing support. Season 3 should be uploading before year's end. Stay safe yourself. All the best
You are welcome. Thank you for reaching out and commenting. Also for watching my channel. Season 3 will upload by year's end. Im currently crossing the country on a different route and its been crazy cool so far. Stay safe
Melancholy is what I feel Happy and sad simult. Now what Haha Gotta wait for the future No, I take that back Now I make my OWN future trip and vids I’ve been excited for what’s to come but after watching you and your GREAT videos every Sunday morning I’m RARING to go!! Launch date is June 20,2023 Do you have a playlist of ALL your vids?? I’m going back to the beginning and watch them all again I’ll be waiting for you! a-LAS-KUH! Lol
Yeah, you getting out there is what it's all about. June '23 will be soon enough and that's a great time of year to start touring except it can be really hot in the southern half of the country. The northern route would be great but still hot at times. Let me know what you are thinking. Yeah the playlists are there. I'll take a look and be sure they are all finished up. As for my channel, I'm touring now and gathering great content looking to get into some trouble as winter comes on. Season 3 is happening. Alaska had to wait. I was way too busy with editing the remaining episode before taking off as well as building the new bike. I had to start way too late to go to Alaska. It will happen though. Probably next year. Thank you for being there supporting my channel all this time. Be safe out on the road. Thank you, Dale
Hi from OR where Im at touring now. Season 3 is getting filmed and should be uploading by year's end once I get home in the next three months. Thank you for watching my channel and for your kind words. All the best to you.
Congrats on another successful bicycle tour. It has been absolutely a pleasure to witness your adventures over these past two trips. Thank you so much for putting in such a tremendous effort to record this journey for us all. All of your great commentary, facts and insights make this channel heads above others!!! I really appreciate your humility, honesty and transperancy. You are a special human! Keep up the great work. I hope you are gifted many miles and amazing experiences in the future. Thanks again!!! All the Best, Rob
Hello Rob. Thank you for such an encouraging and supporting message. It's been a great project to tackle and culminate. All it does is make me want to keep at it. Im currently touring from the PNW south and then east to Utah and CO, NM and who knows where I'll end up. Gathering content as usual and enjoying the routine. Can't thank you enough for continuing to watch and see how the channel progresses. Stay safe out there. Season 3....
Excellent. As always enjoy your time!!!! Looking forward to seeing what you have in store. Also, to see your new set up. ✌🏼 and safe travels!! #everyrideisepic
Thank you Douglas. You've been here supporting me a long time and can't thank you enough. It's been a ball and I'm looking to keep at it. Currently on tour for season 3. Lots of awesome American roads documented already with way many thousands of miles ahead of me before year's end. Should be fun. Be safe out there
I definitely like the solo times but also love to meet up with people and hear what they have to say. When Im not touring that is one of the things I miss the most. Thanks for saying this.
Hello Jaque. I thank you for coming along for the ride. It's very encouraging to have your support and appreciation for what I'm doing here in my channel. Im currently touring form the PNW heading south and then east to who knows where. Should be interesting with winter coming on us. Stay safe and thanks again.
Diego, thank you for taking us along on your adventures. Appreciate the effort you've put in, both riding and producing the videos. Already looking forward to the next trip!
Thank you, for showing the serendipity of bicycle touring, that is the joy in it.What is around the next corner, hill, minute. Wishing you years of safe travel wherever you go.
You are on point about what I am trying to share with you and everyone who watches these episodes. I try to be a facilitator of bicycle touring and all that it offers the rider. It was my goal from the start and I feel as if I am getting closer at accomplishing it. Season 3 should start uploading by late December. Currently touring form the PNW toward the south and then east dodging the oncoming winter. Should be a hoot. Thank you for your comment and support. Be safe
Well Done! Masterful! Wow Factor! Production! I have watched many a bike touring journey, but this is a stand-alone achievement ! The best! Thanks for the tour, Mr. Diego! PS: Co-Motion will build you one heck of a bike!!
Those are very kind words, thank you. I'm trying my best at this and hoping to grow enough to help in having more time to spend at it. Im touring now for over a week crossing the country one more time and it's going great. The bike frame was made after I finished the tour last November and I am now touring on it. It's really nice and I look forward to sharing my experience with it on Season 3. Take care and thank you for your kindness.
Hi Robert. I am one of them who have crossed the country but I would venture to say that there have been a lot of folks who have done it. It seems daunting but in actuality it is a matter of falling into that routine of waking up and riding your bike and before you know it you are half way there and then it's all downhill. Well not really downhill, lol. Thank you for watching and supporting my channel. Season 3 should start uploading by year's end. Be safe
One of the things I enjoy most about your videos is how you include facts about the areas you are traveling through (flora, fauna, history and such). It’s a nice inclusion while the viewer is being thoroughly entertained by the action taking place. Well done.
Thank you for your feedback. It's been one of my biggest hurdles learning how to narrate the research and writing I do for the episodes and I feel it's improving some but slower then I would like. I hope to continue progressing at this part of the equation in the next season of my channel. Im currently touring across the country and should start uploading episodes for season 3 by year's end. Thank you for your support
Hi David. I do miss a bunch of places because of being on the bike and the difficulty in branching off from a specific route. But that is part of it. Hopefully, I will get to ride thru Flagstaff someday. Thank you for watching and reaching out. All the best to you
Bittersweet watching the last one of this tour…..YOU DID IT! Never doubted you would with that determination of yours. Fantastic ride and equally impressive editing. Thank you for bringing us along. Can’t wait for the next one. 🎉🎉
Hi Chandra. It's been a great project and now Im back to it starting from the Pacific NW heading across this nation looking for what I haven't seen yet. I want to thank you for your continuing support and your awesome comments along the way. Season 3 should start before year's end. So far it's looking great as Im gathering quality content. Let's be careful out there and keep doing that which makes us happy 🙂
Hi Jon. Season 3 is being gathered now and for the next three months as I make my way east thru the country. Stay tuned and thank you for watching and supporting the channel
Congratulations Diego! Of course I knew that when you sent a text to me after you finished. I'm glad I met you through Warmshowers back in Ohio in August. It makes these videos more interesting. You did a great job filming and documenting. I thoroughly enjoyed watching them. And experiencing the journey through you. I do wish on your next journey you would wear brighter clothing and/or something brighter on your bike. The front light is good. All these positive comments, and I send a (sort of) negative one, but I am concerned for your safety. I have to tell myself to remember to turn on the back light, even on clear bright days. I'm sure all the viewers are wondering how/what you did through Hurricane Ian.
Hi Sue. Sorry for such a delay responding, I've been touring the PNW and there is awesome camping aplenty so off the wifi for sometime. Thank you for all your support starting with hosting me in Ohio thru Warmshowers. That was a fun time getting to meet a fellow cyclist of your caliber. I hoped you would keep interested in the channel and it means a lot to me that you reached out here and there to let me know you were supporting the project. I hear you about the brighter clothes. My go to now is a bright orange and a green one that I've had since the first tour. I do wear that dark green windbreaker that is not bright at all but I am so attached 😫. I am using it less though. I added one vest for this tour that has some orange. On the new bike I am using the SON Dynamo hub and is lighting up both my front and rear lights anytime I ride wether day or night. Not at night if I can help it. Thank you for worrying about me ☺️, I promise to stay hyper focused. About the hurricane, It passed us to the west and far enough to avoid damage to most of the Florida Keys except for the actual city of Key West which suffered some damage but not terrible overall. Thank you for all your support watching the channel and letting me know you approve of the content. I look forward to starting Season 3 edits by year's end and share more of this country and how fun it is to travel on two wheel. Let's keep at it and being safe in the process. Look forward to hearing from you and hopefully get to ride together someday. Take care, D.
Congrats Diego! I fell in love with touring when I did the East Coast last year, and spend just about every day dreaming of the next one. It has certainly changed my outlook on life.
Yeah mine too. Crazy how days and hours on end pedaling to someplace can change your life and perspective on it. Thank you much for watching this episode. I wish you well and safety always. Season 3 is getting gathered and will upload by year's end. Stay tuned
Great job Rider! You could channel your media skills with some tech oligarchs and make enough in 2 months time to free up the rest of the year. Your stories and videos have all been top-shelf !
Hey LaVon. You would know, you've done it yourself. Oh if I could ever have more backing and support to grow the channel and travel all over the world bringing this type of content. That's what pipe dreams are all about. But regardless, I'm psyched to have finished this project and now starting the next, season 3. Im currently touring across the country from the PNW. I know I know, winter is going to punish me. Should make for interesting adventures as I head to Utah. Thanks for your continuing support and encouragement. Stay warm up your way, bro. Season 3 should start uploading by year's end. Peace ✌️
@@FlyscoutRyder Keep 'er moving and get over them there mountains!! The plain states are supposed to stay a bit warmer this next 6 weeks. All the luck to you, amigo
Hi Nathan. Next is coming by year's end, season 3. Im currently touring the country and it's going to be sporty with a late start and winter coming on. Thank you for watching my channel and reaching out. All the best.
Outstanding job Diego! Congratulations!! I'm proud to say that I watched every episode and the ones thru PA twice. Your skills as a videographer are impressive.
Hi Art. Thank you for your encouraging comment. I'm trying to progress at this and it helps to hear feedback like yours. I also thank you for watching the series. Im currently touring and gathering content for season 3. Should start uploading by year's end. Be safe, please
o my dude, you are some kind of trooper. what a fantastic place to finish. symbolic! you get that California Feeling when those dry trees appear. your stamina is next level. got a hOOt out of the big plate of everything.
Thanks Stephen. The "Big Plate Of Everything" is a great way to explain bicycle touring in a semi straight line going somewhere. Always something or the other coming along making things interesting. California was a fitting place to finish I would agree. All these pieces just happen. They are not totally foreseen or planned other then reaching the very southwestern corner at Friendship park. Thank you for reaching out and for your continuing support all this time. Season 3 is win the making. Hopefully by year's end I'll make it home and start editing it. Be safe out there
Fantastic adventure. Thanks again for documenting the journey so beautifully. This is sure to inspire others to dare to dream and explore the unknown. Cheers, S/V Cork ~ Texas
I hope it gets some of the viewers out the routine life and out of the comfort zone we all so easily cling to. I do it and it takes that initial effort to break loose. Thank you for your support all this time. Season 3 is in the works...
Thank you Pedro. This was a great project to tackle. Lots of doing of all kinds and I am sad but also happy to have completed it. I'm now touring for season 3 and it's going great. Lots of road ahead of me with plans to poke at this nation here and there and bring it to whoever would care to see it thru the eyes of bicycle touring. I hope you are patient enough until I get editing it after I get back home. Should be by year's end. Most importantly, I want to say thanks for all your support. You've been doing so a long while and I so appreciate it. Thank you, Pedro
Can't say enough about what a joy it's been to follow your second cross country trip. Have you done a video showcasing all of the camping items you've used. From tent to wind screen?
I haven't done an episode about my sleeping system and tent but it is in the works. I did do a small segment in the LOWELL episode, though. I have been short on time to create episodes trying to gather the content while touring for season 3. Im currently on week two of three to four months on the road crossing the country on a different route. I will work on what you are asking for but might take some time. Thank you for your comment. Great feedback. Thank you for watching my channel as well.
Diego, I just finished both series of your cross country documentaries. I watched them as I rebuilt my bike and got it all set up for a five hundred mile tour all the way across the state of Maryland. I am leaving Ocean City tomorrow morning and am hoping all goes well. I can not tell you how much I enjoyed your videos, and your enthusiasm just makes me want to get out there even more. Thank you for doing such a great job, not only in the filming and documenting, which is fabulous, but mostly for your positive attitude. I can't wait for your next series!
Hi Pete. That is so cool you are rebuilding your bike. I find that so important to do. Makes it so much easier when mechanical issues come about on the road. I haven't cycled thru Maryland but it sure is on the list. I wish you a blast of a time out on the two wheels. Let me know how it goes. Thank you for your kind words and for having watched both seasons. Be safe out there.
@@FlyscoutRyder , just thought I'd check back in and report on my ride. Maryland is a beautiful state with very diverse geography. The Eastern Shore, where I live is as flat as a place can be, pretty much a big sand bar. The middle section is rolling hills, then the western part is mountains... the same mountains you rode in Pennsylvania. As for the ride, I did 466 miles in seven days. Ocean City, Md. to Oakland, Md. I stayed in Maryland the whole time, though it would have been easier if I went through Delaware and Pennsylvania. I just wanted to say I rode Maryland end to end. One of the main challenges in doing this is getting across the Chesapeake Bay or the Susquehanna River. I crossed the Susquehanna early on a Sunday morning on Route 40. There is a button you press when you get on the bridge that makes a light flash to let the cars know there is a cyclist on the bridge. It flashes for fifteen minutes, I crossed it in six! Though I have ridden my whole life, I have never gotten saddle sores until now ( different bike and different pressure points), which made for some challenges to work through and a lot of things to figure out so my ride wasn't shut down. Boy, are they painful!!! The climbs in Western Md. were brutal, but I made it over all of them. I thought a lot of the joy you experienced when you had conquered some of those difficult climbs on your videos and it definitely helped me to keep climbing. I also thought a lot about you saying "more touring, less cycling" in one of your videos which helped me pace myself and and take more of the beauty in as I rode along. I am really looking forward to your upcoming videos, thanks for making such great content!
Thank you for the ride along Flyscout Ryder. Your documentation of the adventure was amazing and educational. Your dedication to success, through thick and thin, was encouraging. I will never do a trip like that, but this experience will make me stronger emotionally as I sail alone on my 1,000 mile plus solo tours. I wish you the best my friend, maybe we will meet along a shallow, dry place. Respectively, Keith
Hi Keith. Hope we will meet someday. Your kindness is very much appreciated. It's been a great project to tackle and feel I ended up with a far better result then I was imagining. A lot of that has to do with what bicycle touring is about and what it brings into your life in such a wild and crazy way. I wish you success in your adventures and look forward to hearing from you in the future. Thank you for all your support, D.
Hi Brian. Very cool you have followed the two tours and find them worthy. Im trying my best to progress at this and your comment is one of those that fuels me to keep going at it. Thank you. Im currently touring and gathering content for a season 3. Should be uploading by year's end. Thank you for watching and your comments. Take care
Oh man! This has been an amazing series and I know you are happy to finish but I hate to see it end. After the next fishing season I know you'll be back with the new bike. I'll be waiting and kudos to your editing skills. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us Diego.
Hi Tony. It did have to end like all things that have a start but I also have started touring & gathering content for season 3. It was a late start so more crazy winter weather crossing from west to east starting in the PNW. Should be a hoot. Thank you for all your comments, support and encouragement. Stay tuned...
Bravo! Thanks for including us on your wonderful journey, and I loved the teaser at the end about Season 3. It has been a joy to watch; keep up the good work.
You are so upbeat, so positive even under the most challenging circumstances. I do cringe sometimes when I see you on highways with no shoulders! Way to Go on your finish!!!
This was an amazing tour. Keeping a solution based thinking frame of mind is key when bicycle touring. It’s inevitable to have a constant set of challenges to manage. If I’ve learned something from touring is that staying positive is the best way to jump those hurdles. Can’t wait to hear what you think of season 3. Structure is a bit different.
Felicidades Dieguito de tu tía Lola, de Maritere y Josemanuel desde Sevilla...es preciosa toda la ruta ..magnifica lasaña y te felicitamos por tu esfuerzo mientras nos permites disfrutar de las maravillas de USA es un país precioso...gracias y un beso muy grande de nosotros...te queremos Diego
Hi Robert. I'm happy you enjoyed this project. It was very fun and Im back at it recording and touring season 3. Should be out by end of year. All the best to you. Thank you for the support
@@FlyscoutRyder I am a cyclist myself. I just retired in August of this year at the age of 64 and I am looking forward to riding more. I have been researching bicycle touring and I am very interested in it. I look forward to watching - and being inspired! - to watching Season 3!
Thank you for saying that and noticing. I am trying to progress at this so I can grow enough to help me spend more energy on it. I am currently touring and gathering content for season 3 and its going great. Should start editing by mid to late December once I finish this next tour. Thank you
Hey man. Thank you. You've been a great supporter of my project and I can't thank you enough. I'm looking to keep at it and currently touring across the country starting a bit over a week ago. Should be interesting with winter coming 🥶. I look forward to checking king in with you in the future. All the best
Thank you so much for sharing! I am looking forward to your next adventure. I’m also curious about how you are able to accomplish your adventures - what supports you before, during and after.
Hi Jennifer. Thank you for watching the series. It's very encouraging to have the support. Not entirely sure about what you mean about where I get support. If you mean financially, I work seasonally so save what I can so I can give this YT pipe dream a try and enjoy bicycle touring. I'm hoping to make enough income from it to support the channel on its own but that is a far stretch from where its at now. We'll see what happens and how long I can survive at it. Thanks again for watching and supporting my channel. Be safe out there, please
Thank you, the hurricane past us to the west enough to not cause any major damage even though it almost flooded us. I've ben thru four major hurricane that have inflicted real damage to my homes and it is not fun so very thankful to be spared this time. Im currently on tour crossing the nation once again on a different route gathering crazy content. Season 3 should start uploading by year's end. Thank you for watching the channel and reaching out. Take care
Thanks Paul. Great comment and very encouraging. I have had a wonderful time tackling the project. Currently, I'm touring again across the country on another route. It's a late start so should be interesting with winter coming on. Season 3 should start uploading by late December. Stay safe and thank you
Hi Yan. You have been there for a very long time. I can't thank you enough. It's your kind of encouragement that fuels me to keep at this and try progress. I am currently touring gathering content for a season 3. It's going great and I should be able to upload the first episode by year's end.
Thank you Diego for sharing so much on your epic tour. I enjoyed every one of them. You have blessed me and I'm sure so many more by your positive attitude. You may never know the impact for good that you have had on so many of our lives. Keep smiling and keep on giving out those good vibes.
what an awesome comment, thank you very much. it's so encouraging to hear this. I do believe that the content is good natured and that it hopefully gets others to go mess around outside doing healthy stuff. bicycle touring has changed my life and I believe in it 100%. the constant challenges keep you mentally and physically engaged and end up gifting you with so many rewards. I wish you many safe and healthy adventures of your own. thanks man
Thank you for another excellent video . You now have a big fan in my wife who is a non bicyclist but just loves your adventures with all of the beautiful scenery . Those freeways are crazy scary just watching the videos cannot imagine riding them . I have told my biking friends to check out your channel as it one of the best on youtube . Stay safe and looking forward to your next adventures .
Hi Robert. Please tell your wife I say hello and thanks for enjoying my channel. I am currently on tour across the country thru a different route all together gathering content for a season 3. Thank you for telling your friends about my channel as well. I love the support. Yeah, the freeway cycling takes a certain mind frame and only for so long. I like it but it also intimidates me somewhat. Thank you, sir
Thank you David. It's been a great project to tackle. Im now on tour gathering content for season 3 and so far it's been awesome. Thank you for saying hello and watching my channel. Be safe out there.
Thank you for c coming along. Im currently touring across the country once again looking for more of what comes my way. Thank you for watching. Stay tuned
I watch all of your videos and really enjoy them all! You have done such a wonderful job of sharing your journey with all of us. I find it hard to believe you don’t have thousands of viewers! As people find you I predict you are going to have a very large following!
Hi Berenice. Thanks of saying that. I am trying to share my journey best I can learning bicycle touring. I'm happy with my subscriber base as is, but if... and the encouragement I get, all good. My following is large enough 😁
Thank you for your inspiration. I am a retired truck driver and recognized many places on your adventure. I used to ride bike a lot, not so much in the last couple years but that has changed! I dream of touring, first long tour would be International Falls, Minnesota to New Orleans, Louisiana, following the Mississippi River. Safe Travels!
Hi Robert. Thank you for saying that. I believe inspiration to be something we humans pass along. I am on this journey because others inspired me towards it and so I now have the chance to do the same and reciprocate. I hope you do the same. The Mississippi River is something else and your plan is a perfect one. You will have a great time. Keep me us posted. Be safe out there. Thank you for your comment and for watching my channel.
What an amazing journey, Diego - and inspiration to use to bike pack/tour - thanks for including us in your travels - I am very honored you shared it as much as you did. We all know how hard a one man production video crew can get especially on the days that are long and hard on the saddle - - kudos!! I watched both series 1 and 2 in the last one week and can say I haven’t seen anything quite well documented on RUclips- it helped me recover from my illness as I watched. Could I ask what shoes you wear - all through? - waiting to see the next trip - kudos Diego !!👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
It was a fun time during those four months and i'm now back at it after two weeks from the PNW heading towards San Fran and then east towards CO and then TX to finish. It's been great and Im gathering season 3 content that won't disappoint. I should be home by late December and start editing it then. The difficulty of a one man production is a true statement. It mostly just takes so much time when its all on you but it also is equally rewarding to have completed a project like season 2. As long as I can keep floating it and enjoying the whole thing I will keep at it. You saying that I stack up to other vids out there is very kind, thank you. You did not mention what illness you are dealing with but if you use the word recovery it must mean that you are doing just that. I hope you will recover fully soon, man. Sorry you are dealing with it. I wear clip on Shimano MTS shoes that are four years old, boy are they tough. I actually have a new pair at home in a shipping box ready to have sent to me if these wear out but Im not sure it will happen. Take care and keep in touch.
@@FlyscoutRyder Thanks for your reply. I am all healed now - I can say I enjoyed the "sick time" while watching your series 1 & 2. As one who is still working on starting my first bikepacking/touring (1 -3 night trip) trip your adventures are a huge inspiration. I will check out the Shimano MTSs. Finally, I have to add -- Your attitude towards aspects of your trip are just so positive, man! - no matter what the hurdle - like the pack of vicious dogs that just wanted to " say hi" - or laughing (out loud) when climbing very steep hills ... what a cool way to live. Not much seems to faze you. Your destination to san DIEGO - seems to quite apt. Cant wait to see the new series - Safe travels 🙂 and thank you!
That's very nice of you to say, Rick. It's bittersweet for sure but I'm currently eight days into season 3 tour and it's awesome. Winter will be testing me as I head SE across the country so should make for interesting adventures. Thank you for all your comments and your support alongtheu way. Be safe
Wow! What an epic series this was. Hope all is well in Florida and I'm looking forward to seeing how the new bike works out. Alaska would be another great challenge. Thanks for all the great video's. Take care and stay safe, Al
Hey Al. You've been there all along and I thank you for staying engaged. Alaska had to wait due to the new bike build and needing to finish editing the season before leaving home. Currently touring and gathering content for season 3. Hopefully by year's end
Hi John. Thank you for all your support all this time. You have been there for a long while and I can't thank you enough. Im going at it on this next tour and gathering greta stuff for a season 3. Stay safe and I will too
I watch a lot of bike touring videos and yours is hands down the best on on RUclips. Thanks for taking us along and thanks for putting so much into your videos. Looking forward to your next adventure. If you ever get discovered we’ll be watching you on the Travel Channel or Discovery 😂
The Travel Channel or Discovery? 🤣 That would be insane. You are too kind and I love it. Just the kind of fuel I need to keep doing this. Im currently touring the Pacific NW and gathering awesome footage of it all. Hoping to start editing by year's end after I get home. Thank you for being here watching what I throw out there. Be safe out there.
@@FlyscoutRyder Diego, I have a question about your saddle. I ride a recumbent trike, and keep thinking about 2 wheels again only because the trike isn’t practical everywhere. It looks like you have a Brooks saddle? Have you gone through a bunch before arriving at this saddle? Are they really comfortable? Just wondering. I was biking the Katy trail across MO and had to cut it short to head home for the hurricane last week. Missed us in Bradenton but made the call call to go home when it was tracking over the house. Life in FL huh? Be safe out there and enjoy your trip. Good to hear where you are. I guessed you were headed to South America since it was so late in the year.
What an amazing adventure across such diverse countryside. I really enjoyed following along on your journey from over here in Australia. I loved how you always seemed to enjoy and appreciate the opportunity that you had even on the toughest of days. Looking forward to season 3!
Great comment , Michael. Yeah, it surprises me as well how the terrain changes so often while I'm bicycle touring. This happens organically and I think its because of the diversity of routes that cycling allows. One minute I'm on a highway and the next on a busy street in a neighborhood and then Im all alone in a bike path. On the same day. It's one of those things that captivate me about bicycle touring. Thank you for watching and reaching out. Season 3 is happening. Im touring now and gathering the content to share the stories. Most likely will start uploading by late December. Take care
I was so far behind on watching your episodes so I decided to skip to the end and watch your completion. I'll go back and watch the rest. Again, congrats on the completion of your 2nd tour in less than 2 years. That's an amazing feat of endurance and dedication. I'm sure the new Co-Motion bike will serve you as well as Scout did...🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️
Dude!!! You skipped?? lol im kidding. That’s cool. I don’t think the order you watch them matters but I have to say that the best part of the tour is between the first and last day 😁, truly. I hope you go back and take in the beauty of the process of seeing the terrain, culture, climate,and challenges change.
@@FlyscoutRyder well Diego, coming back to this earlier comment thread, I finished watching all of the episodes of your 2nd transcontinental tour and I left you comments along the way so you would know that I watched them. I had to re-watch this episode to tie it all back together again. All I can say is, it has been pure joy to watch you and vicariously be able to see so many things that I never would have otherwise. You have gifted us all who have a passion for cycling a wealth of amazing information from your many experiences. Again, thank you and Happy Holiday's. God Bless. Happy Trails Flyscout Ryder...🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️
Congratulations. I really enjoy how you have documented this. Thank you for putting in the work and sharing it with us. I'm looking forward to your next adventure!
Hi Matthew. Im currently touring across the country on a different route gathering awesome content for season 3. I should be able to start editing it towards the end of the year. Thank you so much for reaching out and watching the channel. It's a work in progress and your support means a lot. Be safe out there.
Hi Danny. Thank you for watching and reaching out. It was a fun project and now Im on the next tour across more of this awesome nation. Should have the first installments by year's end.
What an achievement you have made. How nice to be able to travel with you on the journey. I look forward to your new adventure. Good luck with preparing your route and new bike.
Hello Henry. I am currently touring across the country gathering more content for a season 3. It's going great with crazy adventures and all kinds of great scenery. The route is from the Pacific NW starting in the Olympic Peninsula going south CA. Then east over Yosemite NP and into NV and UT to CO for some winter cycling over passes and then falling into NM and TX. From there I'll decide what next but so far that's the route. Bike is great and I will be sharing about it in the coming season. Thank you for watching and reaching out
I have really enjoyed riding my stationary bike in the winter months following you on both of your cross-country trips. Thanks for letting me ride with you…!
Very cool, Jack. I've heard other comments about watching the channel while on the stationary bike. Sounds like it's a good way to use the episodes. I'll soon be editing the first episode of season 3 so might have more content to ride with.
so much tanx for takkin us along. i commented often of similar rides. ;82 i did some of coast as failed to go cross cal. ( almost got arested for hitch hike with bike on i-10 west at border. not knew illegal that stretch. so mom showed same address , we pow wowed Compton . checked out Queen marry. 3 day employed ) i only rode coast. as ended Ocensice bro a gunny sgt Penalton> i bused SD from hostels & rented room . when let go i bus to , hollywood & vine, walked all around LA hill, but bussed back. . This stretch you shared is what i should have done either way. Thyannx
You are welcome Mark. Glad to be able to share my story and have other reminisce of like adventures. I hope to be able to do that myself someday. Currently touring the PNW and enjoying every mile. Stay safe out there
Congratulations, Diego! This has been a monumental year for you. I am looking forward to more of your adventures,but I wish you would find routes with less traffic. Stay well.
Routes with less traffic are hard to find but I will try. One of my goals is to share with people how to navigate with traffic so if they are in those scenarios they can figure their way thru them as well. I thank you for worrying about me and reminding me to be careful and avoid crazy roads when possible. I promise I will. Thank you for your support all this time. You've been there for a long while and I appreciate the encouragement. Season 3 should start uploading by the end of the year. So far is going great. Take care, Robert
Well Done, Sir. Your accomplishments as a long-haul touring cyclist is only surpassed by your accomplishments as a documentary filmmaker. You deserve your rightful place amongst the top adventure youtubers posting content today. ~Mark
Hi Mark. That is very kind of you to share. I'm trying to progress and create a channel for the long haul bringing this type of healthy content. We'll see if I can keep up. I'm hoping it will generate income enough at some point so I can afford to spend more time at it. Your encouragement means the world to me. Thank you for being there all this time. Season 3 should start uploading by year's end and it is going really good. Im on week two of another crossing starting in the Pacific NW. Stay tuned.
Hey Diego, that was an awesome conclusion to your journey across America. It was great to follow you along, and a fascinating insight to the heart of the country. Brilliant photography and editing, truly first class production quality. Will look forward to seeing you on a Co-Motion bike journeying even more! Epic, well done!! 👍👌
Hi Christopher. Thank you for all your support and encouragement throughout this project. It's been a great tour and Im back at it in the PNW heading to TX into the winter. Should be interesting. So far it's all going great with plenty of adventure to boot. I should be home by end of year and start the new season 3. I wish you a great holiday season. Thank you very much. D.
Hi Derek. Thank you for sitting thru this second season. It was a special one but so are all of them. Im spending much of my days on the water working my guiding season until July and thinking back as to how much fun it is to be on the road sure makes me miss it. Take care and thank you.
Congratulations on finnishing your trip. Watched every single one of your videos including all the one's from Cycling USA 1. I want to ask one question, your tent is made by Hilleberg but what is the model and can you reccommend it? Can't wait for your next adventure. Well done.
Hi Billy. Thank you for watching my channel. It's been a progression from the start and I have learned so much, especially about our nation and the beautiful people in it. The model is a Niak and I love my tent. I totally recommend it. Soon, I am planning to make review episodes while on tour (I just started 8 days ago) and I will be doing one about the Niak. Stay tuned for season 3. Should be before year's end. Thanks again for your continuing support. Be safe out there
@@FlyscoutRyder Thank you for your reply and the information about the tent. Glad to hear you are going to do a third series. I will be watching out for your next video. Look after yourself and thanks again. Billy
Yipes! What a terrific tour. It's been a pleasure following these first two trips of yours, and I look forward to following your next trips. On my rainy days here in Germany, I jump on my cross trainer and can watch your videos for hours on end. It makes me look forward to my own Vienna, Austria to Aachen, Germany trip this summer.
What an incredible season Diego, Congratulations on this Epic journey of yours! The Rockies were insane and I was fearful for your safety in those extreme conditions but you handled them like a Pro! I’m slowly catching up on your videos & look forward to wherever your 3rd season takes you. All the Best & God Bless! Alejandro😎
Hi Alejandro. Im psyched to hear you watched this Season 2. It was as epic as any. Season 3 of the PCBR showcases the incredible nature and culture along the west coast. It is truly one of the best cycling routes the US has to offer. I hope you stick around. Im on a new tour recording Season 5. It’s of the Cascade and Sierra Nevada Ranges from Canada to Mexico. 8 National Parks included. Lots more on the way. Be safe and thank you for reaching out.
Hi Roland and Julianna. That's is really nice for you to say. Yeah I \also get pumped to head back out there when I watch this last episode. I'm currently mid way thru doing a west coast route from the Olympic Peninsula down to Southern California. I hope you guys are staying on the saddle and enjoying this fall coming on.
Oh yeah, it's a one man operation from one end to the other, lol 😁. Thank you for saying that. I'm trying to progress but no way will I ever have a camera man. I love to capture the content just as much as putting it together to tell the story and what bicycle touring and this nation has to offer. Season 3 will likely start uploading by year's end. Take care
Thank you for reaching out saying such nice things. Season 3 is getting gathered now form PNW to TX and so far it's far from disappointing. I should be home by end of December and start editing it before year's end. Thank you for your support.
I’m now left Jonesing for more. My feelings are bitter sweet, as I am sure yours are too, I’m happy that you completed this epic journey but sad the ride is over. I’m looking forward to your Alaska adventure.
Thanks for saying that, very cool. Makes me get back on the road and I actually will in just a few minutes. I'm two weeks touring from the PNW to Texas and its going great. I should start uploading when I get back home by year's end. This region of the country is so unique, really enjoying it and meeting all kinds of nice people along the way. I couldn't make it to Alaska this year because of needing to finish the last season's edit into the summer and building the new bike. Lots on the plate. The idea is to cover all the states and Alaska is a must so it will happen. Take care, man. Thank you for your support and encouragement all this time.
Congratulations. That is amazing. Good luck with your future adventures. I got a whole set up for touring but I've been very busy homesteading. I will get out there someday
Hi Dana. Thank you for watching and reaching out with such a kind comment. I hope you get out there someday and experience the awesomeness that is bicycle touring. Im currently touring and gathering great content for a season 3. I should be editing and uploading by the end of year. Take care.
i felt your anticipation and excitement at reaching your goal, WELL DONE! Loved all the mapping and labeling you did for us. you have set a very high bar in video producing i believe. looking forward to the future trip. BRAVO&ENCORE🙂
Thank you Doug. I'm happy as to how this tour ended and happier to be able to share it with whoever might want to go thru the adventure it is to travel by bicycle across long distances. I'm on tour now and gathering more content for a season 3. Hopefully start uploading by years' end. Stay safe and thank you so much f0r your continuing encouragement and support.
Dude, thank you. Can't tell you how much that means. I will keep at it and look to progress and hope you and everyone else gets something healthy out of it. Be safe and take care.
A huge congratulation of your brilliant cycling journey. New subscriber here in England🏴, UK🇬🇧, watching your amazing videos of your bike journey. Keep safe always Sir. I am always following all your fantastic ride. Good luck and God bless🙏👏🚴🏻♂️
So cool, all the way from England, love it, thank you, sir. I am currently in the Pacific NW gathering content for a season 3 and met up with a cyclist from London who was riding from Vancouver to Baja Mexico. We chatted a while and rode together for part of the day. Thank you for the encouragement. Take care
What a joy to watch your episodes, Diego. I’m planning my own cross country trip from West Coast (I live in Washington) to the East Coast. It was so inspiring to watch season 1 and season 2 back to back! I hope I come across you someday on the road. Hope you keep on riding, I’ll be watching!
I hope to meet you as well, Paul. Your appreciation for my efforts with the channel and its content tells me we have lots alike. Your tour will be a very much memorable and likely life changing. Regardless of what route you take across the upper half of the nation it will be top notch. You have to keep us posted
My dear Diego; I just met you an hour ago at the pizza place downtown San Diego.
I am Marco Polo the Colombian guy and now that I am watching your video, I can see what I told you even that I didn't know who you were at that moment, but from my own experience and sensitivity that you where a real bike rider. Congratulations GOD put you in my path to be inspire by some one that is doing exactly what I will like to do for the rest of my life, whatever the time is left for me, before I go to heaven.
I will be in touch with you to learn how I can increase my endurance even at my age 72, which is almost the age of any of your uncles, since you are younger than me. GOD BLESS YOU have a great life. I consider you my friend from this moment on.
Hello Marco Polo. It was great to meet you and your brother. Thank you for taking a look at my channel and finding it worth while. Hopefully it encourages you to try bicycle touring. I wish you and yours a great holiday season and safe travels
This was one of the better documented bike tours of 2022 Enjoyed every video from start to finish.
Thank you so much. I'm currently on tour across the country gathering content as usual. Should be an interesting time with the new bike and winter coming on. Thank you for your continuing support.
I’m thankful to see a post this morning. I hope that means you have weathered the hurricane. God bless. Thank you for being the quality person you seem to be. I’m sure everyone that meets you is better for it. Will keep watching for years to come.
Jon, you are very kind, thank you. The hurricane missed us in the Keys but inevitably it struck other in the Fort Myers area with serious consequences. They will rebuild and be stronger for it in the long run, I hope. Also, thank you for your support, you've been doing so for a long time. I hope to stay healthy and continue growing this channel and pushing anyone interested in the content to get out there and get passionate about anything healthy. It really fills the heart with that which it needs. Be well. Season 3 will hopefully come together before year's end. Be safe too, Jon
“A big plate of everything” - love it!
Hi Stefano. Yeah, it is fitting to say bicycle touring can be a "Big Plate Of everything". Love it. Thank you for watching my channel and your support all along. Stay safe out there
Ah, another epic episode Diego! I thoroughly enjoyed being a vicarious riding partner along with you. THANK YOU for the lessons along the way. Your videos are amazing as well as adding so many insights about the surroundings. You have become my cycling hero! I anticipate joining your trip to and thru Alaska. Be safe and God bless you.
Hi Verlin. Alaska had to wait. I was delayed by the new bike build and wanting to finish editing season 2 before leaving home. I started eight days ago from the Olympic Peninsula heading south and then east towards Utah. Should be interesting with winter coming on. Thank you for you continuing support. Season 3 should be uploading before year's end. Stay safe yourself. All the best
My wife and I really enjoyed watching your epic journey! Thank you so much for sharing it😊
You are welcome. Thank you for reaching out and commenting. Also for watching my channel. Season 3 will upload by year's end. Im currently crossing the country on a different route and its been crazy cool so far. Stay safe
Melancholy is what I feel
Happy and sad simult.
Now what
Haha
Gotta wait for the future
No, I take that back
Now I make my OWN future trip and vids
I’ve been excited for what’s to come but after watching you and your GREAT videos every Sunday morning I’m RARING to go!!
Launch date is June 20,2023
Do you have a playlist of ALL your vids??
I’m going back to the beginning and watch them all again
I’ll be waiting for you!
a-LAS-KUH! Lol
Yeah, you getting out there is what it's all about. June '23 will be soon enough and that's a great time of year to start touring except it can be really hot in the southern half of the country. The northern route would be great but still hot at times. Let me know what you are thinking.
Yeah the playlists are there. I'll take a look and be sure they are all finished up.
As for my channel, I'm touring now and gathering great content looking to get into some trouble as winter comes on. Season 3 is happening.
Alaska had to wait. I was way too busy with editing the remaining episode before taking off as well as building the new bike. I had to start way too late to go to Alaska. It will happen though. Probably next year.
Thank you for being there supporting my channel all this time. Be safe out on the road. Thank you, Dale
Totally enjoyed every episode. You are an inspiration! Cheers from Michigan.
Hi from OR where Im at touring now. Season 3 is getting filmed and should be uploading by year's end once I get home in the next three months. Thank you for watching my channel and for your kind words. All the best to you.
Congrats on another successful bicycle tour. It has been absolutely a pleasure to witness your adventures over these past two trips. Thank you so much for putting in such a tremendous effort to record this journey for us all. All of your great commentary, facts and insights make this channel heads above others!!! I really appreciate your humility, honesty and transperancy. You are a special human! Keep up the great work. I hope you are gifted many miles and amazing experiences in the future. Thanks again!!! All the Best, Rob
Hello Rob. Thank you for such an encouraging and supporting message. It's been a great project to tackle and culminate. All it does is make me want to keep at it. Im currently touring from the PNW south and then east to Utah and CO, NM and who knows where I'll end up. Gathering content as usual and enjoying the routine. Can't thank you enough for continuing to watch and see how the channel progresses. Stay safe out there. Season 3....
Excellent. As always enjoy your time!!!! Looking forward to seeing what you have in store. Also, to see your new set up. ✌🏼 and safe travels!! #everyrideisepic
Diego that was fantastic!
Thank you Douglas. You've been here supporting me a long time and can't thank you enough. It's been a ball and I'm looking to keep at it. Currently on tour for season 3. Lots of awesome American roads documented already with way many thousands of miles ahead of me before year's end. Should be fun. Be safe out there
I like how communicative you are yet you appear comfortable being alone.
I definitely like the solo times but also love to meet up with people and hear what they have to say. When Im not touring that is one of the things I miss the most. Thanks for saying this.
Good job Diego! It was a genuine pleasure to follow you on your adventure. Looking forward to the next one. Take care. 😊
Hello Jaque. I thank you for coming along for the ride. It's very encouraging to have your support and appreciation for what I'm doing here in my channel. Im currently touring form the PNW heading south and then east to who knows where. Should be interesting with winter coming on us. Stay safe and thanks again.
Diego, thank you for taking us along on your adventures. Appreciate the effort you've put in, both riding and producing the videos. Already looking forward to the next trip!
Hi Gary. Season 3 is in the making and should start uploading by end of December. Thank you for watching and encouraging the channel. Stay safe
Thank you, for showing the serendipity of bicycle touring, that is the joy in it.What is around the next corner, hill, minute. Wishing you years of safe travel wherever you go.
You are on point about what I am trying to share with you and everyone who watches these episodes. I try to be a facilitator of bicycle touring and all that it offers the rider. It was my goal from the start and I feel as if I am getting closer at accomplishing it. Season 3 should start uploading by late December. Currently touring form the PNW toward the south and then east dodging the oncoming winter. Should be a hoot. Thank you for your comment and support. Be safe
That was SO MUCH fun to watch!!
Thank you Amy. I'm touring now and gathering the content for season 3. Crazy times ahead. Thank you for watching
Well Done! Masterful! Wow Factor! Production! I have watched many a bike touring journey, but this is a stand-alone achievement ! The best! Thanks for the tour, Mr. Diego!
PS: Co-Motion will build you one heck of a bike!!
Those are very kind words, thank you. I'm trying my best at this and hoping to grow enough to help in having more time to spend at it. Im touring now for over a week crossing the country one more time and it's going great. The bike frame was made after I finished the tour last November and I am now touring on it. It's really nice and I look forward to sharing my experience with it on Season 3. Take care and thank you for your kindness.
The Santa Anna winds are no joke. I recall them a bit too well - being blown to the side at least thirty degrees while riding a motorcycle!
Congratulations to you! You are probably one of few people who can say they cycled across the country! Great job!
Hi Robert. I am one of them who have crossed the country but I would venture to say that there have been a lot of folks who have done it. It seems daunting but in actuality it is a matter of falling into that routine of waking up and riding your bike and before you know it you are half way there and then it's all downhill. Well not really downhill, lol. Thank you for watching and supporting my channel. Season 3 should start uploading by year's end. Be safe
One of the things I enjoy most about your videos is how you include facts about the areas you are traveling through (flora, fauna, history and such). It’s a nice inclusion while the viewer is being thoroughly entertained by the action taking place. Well done.
Thank you for your feedback. It's been one of my biggest hurdles learning how to narrate the research and writing I do for the episodes and I feel it's improving some but slower then I would like. I hope to continue progressing at this part of the equation in the next season of my channel. Im currently touring across the country and should start uploading episodes for season 3 by year's end. Thank you for your support
Great job! So fun to follow! Sorry you missed Flagstaff!!
Hi David. I do miss a bunch of places because of being on the bike and the difficulty in branching off from a specific route. But that is part of it. Hopefully, I will get to ride thru Flagstaff someday. Thank you for watching and reaching out. All the best to you
Bittersweet watching the last one of this tour…..YOU DID IT! Never doubted you would with that determination of yours. Fantastic ride and equally impressive editing. Thank you for bringing us along. Can’t wait for the next one. 🎉🎉
Hi Chandra. It's been a great project and now Im back to it starting from the Pacific NW heading across this nation looking for what I haven't seen yet. I want to thank you for your continuing support and your awesome comments along the way. Season 3 should start before year's end. So far it's looking great as Im gathering quality content. Let's be careful out there and keep doing that which makes us happy 🙂
Thanks for another great series. Looking forward to the next.
Hi Jon. Season 3 is being gathered now and for the next three months as I make my way east thru the country. Stay tuned and thank you for watching and supporting the channel
Congratulations Diego! Of course I knew that when you sent a text to me after you finished. I'm glad I met you through Warmshowers back in Ohio in August. It makes these videos more interesting. You did a great job filming and documenting. I thoroughly enjoyed watching them. And experiencing the journey through you. I do wish on your next journey you would wear brighter clothing and/or something brighter on your bike. The front light is good. All these positive comments, and I send a (sort of) negative one, but I am concerned for your safety. I have to tell myself to remember to turn on the back light, even on clear bright days.
I'm sure all the viewers are wondering how/what you did through Hurricane Ian.
Hi Sue. Sorry for such a delay responding, I've been touring the PNW and there is awesome camping aplenty so off the wifi for sometime. Thank you for all your support starting with hosting me in Ohio thru Warmshowers. That was a fun time getting to meet a fellow cyclist of your caliber. I hoped you would keep interested in the channel and it means a lot to me that you reached out here and there to let me know you were supporting the project. I hear you about the brighter clothes. My go to now is a bright orange and a green one that I've had since the first tour. I do wear that dark green windbreaker that is not bright at all but I am so attached 😫. I am using it less though. I added one vest for this tour that has some orange. On the new bike I am using the SON Dynamo hub and is lighting up both my front and rear lights anytime I ride wether day or night. Not at night if I can help it. Thank you for worrying about me ☺️, I promise to stay hyper focused. About the hurricane, It passed us to the west and far enough to avoid damage to most of the Florida Keys except for the actual city of Key West which suffered some damage but not terrible overall.
Thank you for all your support watching the channel and letting me know you approve of the content. I look forward to starting Season 3 edits by year's end and share more of this country and how fun it is to travel on two wheel. Let's keep at it and being safe in the process. Look forward to hearing from you and hopefully get to ride together someday. Take care, D.
Congrats Diego! I fell in love with touring when I did the East Coast last year, and spend just about every day dreaming of the next one. It has certainly changed my outlook on life.
it just occurred to me that Diego finished in Diego. a ride back to himself?
That wasn't planned, haha. Happens to be the southwestern corner of the country. A fun coincidence
Yeah mine too. Crazy how days and hours on end pedaling to someplace can change your life and perspective on it. Thank you much for watching this episode. I wish you well and safety always. Season 3 is getting gathered and will upload by year's end. Stay tuned
Great job Rider! You could channel your media skills with some tech oligarchs and make enough in 2 months time to free up the rest of the year. Your stories and videos have all been top-shelf !
Hey LaVon. You would know, you've done it yourself. Oh if I could ever have more backing and support to grow the channel and travel all over the world bringing this type of content. That's what pipe dreams are all about. But regardless, I'm psyched to have finished this project and now starting the next, season 3. Im currently touring across the country from the PNW. I know I know, winter is going to punish me. Should make for interesting adventures as I head to Utah. Thanks for your continuing support and encouragement. Stay warm up your way, bro. Season 3 should start uploading by year's end. Peace ✌️
@@FlyscoutRyder Keep 'er moving and get over them there mountains!! The plain states are supposed to stay a bit warmer this next 6 weeks. All the luck to you, amigo
Thanks for sharing your adventure. Can't wait to see what comes next.
Hi Nathan. Next is coming by year's end, season 3. Im currently touring the country and it's going to be sporty with a late start and winter coming on. Thank you for watching my channel and reaching out. All the best.
Outstanding job Diego! Congratulations!! I'm proud to say that I watched every episode and the ones thru PA twice. Your skills as a videographer are impressive.
Hi Art. Thank you for your encouraging comment. I'm trying to progress at this and it helps to hear feedback like yours. I also thank you for watching the series. Im currently touring and gathering content for season 3. Should start uploading by year's end. Be safe, please
o my dude, you are some kind of trooper. what a fantastic place to finish. symbolic! you get that California Feeling when those dry trees appear. your stamina is next level. got a hOOt out of the big plate of everything.
Thanks Stephen. The "Big Plate Of Everything" is a great way to explain bicycle touring in a semi straight line going somewhere. Always something or the other coming along making things interesting. California was a fitting place to finish I would agree. All these pieces just happen. They are not totally foreseen or planned other then reaching the very southwestern corner at Friendship park. Thank you for reaching out and for your continuing support all this time. Season 3 is win the making. Hopefully by year's end I'll make it home and start editing it. Be safe out there
Fantastic adventure. Thanks again for documenting the journey so beautifully.
This is sure to inspire others to dare to dream and explore the unknown. Cheers,
S/V Cork ~ Texas
I hope it gets some of the viewers out the routine life and out of the comfort zone we all so easily cling to. I do it and it takes that initial effort to break loose. Thank you for your support all this time. Season 3 is in the works...
Very fitting that you completed your journey in San Diego, Diego. Congrats on your determination and courage.
Thank you Pedro. This was a great project to tackle. Lots of doing of all kinds and I am sad but also happy to have completed it. I'm now touring for season 3 and it's going great. Lots of road ahead of me with plans to poke at this nation here and there and bring it to whoever would care to see it thru the eyes of bicycle touring. I hope you are patient enough until I get editing it after I get back home. Should be by year's end.
Most importantly, I want to say thanks for all your support. You've been doing so a long while and I so appreciate it. Thank you, Pedro
Can't say enough about what a joy it's been to follow your second cross country trip. Have you done a video showcasing all of the camping items you've used. From tent to wind screen?
I haven't done an episode about my sleeping system and tent but it is in the works. I did do a small segment in the LOWELL episode, though. I have been short on time to create episodes trying to gather the content while touring for season 3. Im currently on week two of three to four months on the road crossing the country on a different route. I will work on what you are asking for but might take some time. Thank you for your comment. Great feedback. Thank you for watching my channel as well.
Diego, I just finished both series of your cross country documentaries. I watched them as I rebuilt my bike and got it all set up for a five hundred mile tour all the way across the state of Maryland. I am leaving Ocean City tomorrow morning and am hoping all goes well. I can not tell you how much I enjoyed your videos, and your enthusiasm just makes me want to get out there even more. Thank you for doing such a great job, not only in the filming and documenting, which is fabulous, but mostly for your positive attitude. I can't wait for your next series!
Hi Pete. That is so cool you are rebuilding your bike. I find that so important to do. Makes it so much easier when mechanical issues come about on the road. I haven't cycled thru Maryland but it sure is on the list. I wish you a blast of a time out on the two wheels. Let me know how it goes. Thank you for your kind words and for having watched both seasons. Be safe out there.
@@FlyscoutRyder , just thought I'd check back in and report on my ride. Maryland is a beautiful state with very diverse geography. The Eastern Shore, where I live is as flat as a place can be, pretty much a big sand bar. The middle section is rolling hills, then the western part is mountains... the same mountains you rode in Pennsylvania. As for the ride, I did 466 miles in seven days. Ocean City, Md. to Oakland, Md. I stayed in Maryland the whole time, though it would have been easier if I went through Delaware and Pennsylvania. I just wanted to say I rode Maryland end to end. One of the main challenges in doing this is getting across the Chesapeake Bay or the Susquehanna River. I crossed the Susquehanna early on a Sunday morning on Route 40. There is a button you press when you get on the bridge that makes a light flash to let the cars know there is a cyclist on the bridge. It flashes for fifteen minutes, I crossed it in six! Though I have ridden my whole life, I have never gotten saddle sores until now ( different bike and different pressure points), which made for some challenges to work through and a lot of things to figure out so my ride wasn't shut down. Boy, are they painful!!! The climbs in Western Md. were brutal, but I made it over all of them. I thought a lot of the joy you experienced when you had conquered some of those difficult climbs on your videos and it definitely helped me to keep climbing. I also thought a lot about you saying "more touring, less cycling" in one of your videos which helped me pace myself and and take more of the beauty in as I rode along. I am really looking forward to your upcoming videos, thanks for making such great content!
Thank you for the ride along Flyscout Ryder. Your documentation of the adventure was amazing and educational. Your dedication to success, through thick and thin, was encouraging. I will never do a trip like that, but this experience will make me stronger emotionally as I sail alone on my 1,000 mile plus solo tours. I wish you the best my friend, maybe we will meet along a shallow, dry place. Respectively, Keith
Hi Keith. Hope we will meet someday. Your kindness is very much appreciated. It's been a great project to tackle and feel I ended up with a far better result then I was imagining. A lot of that has to do with what bicycle touring is about and what it brings into your life in such a wild and crazy way. I wish you success in your adventures and look forward to hearing from you in the future. Thank you for all your support, D.
Congratulations on completing this Great journey Diego!
Thank you
Congratulations. It’s been great watching your journey.
Hi Bret. Thank you for watching the series. Season 3 is being gathered now and should upload by year's end. I wish you safe travels.
This is the second full tour I’ve followed you and you inspire me each time. I’m going to miss these videos. Can’t wait to see where you go next.
Hi Brian. Very cool you have followed the two tours and find them worthy. Im trying my best to progress at this and your comment is one of those that fuels me to keep going at it. Thank you. Im currently touring and gathering content for a season 3. Should be uploading by year's end. Thank you for watching and your comments. Take care
Oh man! This has been an amazing series and I know you are happy to finish but I hate to see it end. After the next fishing season I know you'll be back with the new bike. I'll be waiting and kudos to your editing skills. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us Diego.
Hi Tony. It did have to end like all things that have a start but I also have started touring & gathering content for season 3. It was a late start so more crazy winter weather crossing from west to east starting in the PNW. Should be a hoot. Thank you for all your comments, support and encouragement. Stay tuned...
Bravo! Thanks for including us on your wonderful journey, and I loved the teaser at the end about Season 3. It has been a joy to watch; keep up the good work.
Thanks Steven. I'm currently documenting season 3. Should be editing it by year's end. Lots of miles ahead of me with huge plans.
You are so upbeat, so positive even under the most challenging circumstances. I do cringe sometimes when I see you on highways with no shoulders! Way to Go on your finish!!!
This was an amazing tour. Keeping a solution based thinking frame of mind is key when bicycle touring. It’s inevitable to have a constant set of challenges to manage. If I’ve learned something from touring is that staying positive is the best way to jump those hurdles. Can’t wait to hear what you think of season 3. Structure is a bit different.
Felicidades Dieguito de tu tía Lola, de Maritere y Josemanuel desde Sevilla...es preciosa toda la ruta ..magnifica lasaña y te felicitamos por tu esfuerzo mientras nos permites disfrutar de las maravillas de USA es un país precioso...gracias y un beso muy grande de nosotros...te queremos Diego
Gracias, Tia. Saludos a todos y gracias por ver mi canal con mis locuras. Besos, D.
Thank you very much for sharing this story! I have enjoyed watching your videos!
Hi Robert. I'm happy you enjoyed this project. It was very fun and Im back at it recording and touring season 3. Should be out by end of year. All the best to you. Thank you for the support
@@FlyscoutRyder I am a cyclist myself. I just retired in August of this year at the age of 64 and I am looking forward to riding more. I have been researching bicycle touring and I am very interested in it. I look forward to watching - and being inspired! - to watching Season 3!
You are so inspiring! And you video production skills have dramatically improved. I'm looking forward to your next incredible adventures.
Thank you for saying that and noticing. I am trying to progress at this so I can grow enough to help me spend more energy on it. I am currently touring and gathering content for season 3 and its going great. Should start editing by mid to late December once I finish this next tour. Thank you
Thank you for sharing your trip. I really enjoyed watching.
Thank you, Gary. It's been a great project. Season 3 is getting gathered right now. Should start uploading by year's end
Amazing been
along the whole time !!!
Hey man. Thank you. You've been a great supporter of my project and I can't thank you enough. I'm looking to keep at it and currently touring across the country starting a bit over a week ago. Should be interesting with winter coming 🥶. I look forward to checking king in with you in the future. All the best
Congratulations! I look forward to watching videos of your next adventures.
Soon enough. Im currently touring across the US on a different route. Season 3 should start uploading by year's end. Thank you for watching
Thank you so much for sharing! I am looking forward to your next adventure.
I’m also curious about how you are able to accomplish your adventures - what supports you before, during and after.
Hi Jennifer. Thank you for watching the series. It's very encouraging to have the support. Not entirely sure about what you mean about where I get support. If you mean financially, I work seasonally so save what I can so I can give this YT pipe dream a try and enjoy bicycle touring. I'm hoping to make enough income from it to support the channel on its own but that is a far stretch from where its at now. We'll see what happens and how long I can survive at it. Thanks again for watching and supporting my channel. Be safe out there, please
Hopefully your family and friends made it through the storm safely . Cant wait to see this years ride on your new bike .
Thank you, the hurricane past us to the west enough to not cause any major damage even though it almost flooded us. I've ben thru four major hurricane that have inflicted real damage to my homes and it is not fun so very thankful to be spared this time. Im currently on tour crossing the nation once again on a different route gathering crazy content. Season 3 should start uploading by year's end. Thank you for watching the channel and reaching out. Take care
What an epic road trip! Thank you for documenting your journey and sharing with us.
I believe in this whole process. Thank you for taking the time to watch and hopefully taking something from it.
What a journey bro! Gotta be best bike touring series on here! Super excited for your next adventures. 👊
Thanks Paul. Great comment and very encouraging. I have had a wonderful time tackling the project. Currently, I'm touring again across the country on another route. It's a late start so should be interesting with winter coming on. Season 3 should start uploading by late December. Stay safe and thank you
@@FlyscoutRyder Stay safe brother
Congratulations! Enjoyed the ride.
You've been here all along. Thank you for your continuing support. Season 3 is in the making. Should start uploading by year's end. Stay safe
It was a pleasure to follow you every week for this trip. I really like your description. thank you and congratulation.
Hi Yan. You have been there for a very long time. I can't thank you enough. It's your kind of encouragement that fuels me to keep at this and try progress. I am currently touring gathering content for a season 3. It's going great and I should be able to upload the first episode by year's end.
Thank you Diego for sharing so much on your epic tour. I enjoyed every one of them. You have blessed me and I'm sure so many more by your positive attitude. You may never know the impact for good that you have had on so many of our lives. Keep smiling and keep on giving out those good vibes.
what an awesome comment, thank you very much. it's so encouraging to hear this. I do believe that the content is good natured and that it hopefully gets others to go mess around outside doing healthy stuff. bicycle touring has changed my life and I believe in it 100%. the constant challenges keep you mentally and physically engaged and end up gifting you with so many rewards. I wish you many safe and healthy adventures of your own.
thanks man
Thank you for taking me along! I really enjoyed the scenery and narrative!
Thank you John. More will be coming soon. Season 3 should start uploading by year's end. Stay safe out there
i enjoyed every episode of your trip, and look forward to your next!
Thanks Mark. Season 3 is happening. Should start uploading by year's end. Currently touring across the country and going great. Wishing you safety.
Thank you for another excellent video . You now have a big fan in my wife who is a non bicyclist but just loves your adventures with all of the beautiful scenery . Those freeways are crazy scary just watching the videos cannot imagine riding them . I have told my biking friends to check out your channel as it one of the best on youtube . Stay safe and looking forward to your next adventures .
Hi Robert. Please tell your wife I say hello and thanks for enjoying my channel. I am currently on tour across the country thru a different route all together gathering content for a season 3. Thank you for telling your friends about my channel as well. I love the support. Yeah, the freeway cycling takes a certain mind frame and only for so long. I like it but it also intimidates me somewhat. Thank you, sir
That was an awesome series it was fun to watch you!
Thank you Troy. I hope to finish the current tour and season 3 content gathering by December and start uploading it then. Stay tuned. Be safe
I have watched every one of your videos, and enjoyed them very much. Congratulations on your adventures.
Thank you David. It's been a great project to tackle. Im now on tour gathering content for season 3 and so far it's been awesome. Thank you for saying hello and watching my channel. Be safe out there.
What an awesome series, Diego. Congratulations on completing your adventure.
Thank you for c coming along. Im currently touring across the country once again looking for more of what comes my way. Thank you for watching. Stay tuned
Congratulations 🎉 Bravo, thanks for inspiration!
Hi Stephen. Thank you sir. It's been a memorable tour. I'm currently at it again and gathering content for season 3. Stay tuned
Right on thanks for sharing!
Welcome. More on the way
I watch all of your videos and really enjoy them all! You have done such a wonderful job of sharing your journey with all of us. I find it hard to believe you don’t have thousands of viewers! As people find you I predict you are going to have a very large following!
Hi Berenice. Thanks of saying that. I am trying to share my journey best I can learning bicycle touring. I'm happy with my subscriber base as is, but if... and the encouragement I get, all good. My following is large enough 😁
Thank you for your inspiration. I am a retired truck driver and recognized many places on your adventure. I used to ride bike a lot, not so much in the last couple years but that has changed! I dream of touring, first long tour would be International Falls, Minnesota to New Orleans, Louisiana, following the Mississippi River. Safe Travels!
Hi Robert. Thank you for saying that. I believe inspiration to be something we humans pass along. I am on this journey because others inspired me towards it and so I now have the chance to do the same and reciprocate. I hope you do the same. The Mississippi River is something else and your plan is a perfect one. You will have a great time. Keep me us posted. Be safe out there. Thank you for your comment and for watching my channel.
What an amazing journey, Diego - and inspiration to use to bike pack/tour - thanks for including us in your travels - I am very honored you shared it as much as you did. We all know how hard a one man production video crew can get especially on the days that are long and hard on the saddle - - kudos!! I watched both series 1 and 2 in the last one week and can say I haven’t seen anything quite well documented on RUclips- it helped me recover from my illness as I watched. Could I ask what shoes you wear - all through? - waiting to see the next trip - kudos Diego !!👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
It was a fun time during those four months and i'm now back at it after two weeks from the PNW heading towards San Fran and then east towards CO and then TX to finish. It's been great and Im gathering season 3 content that won't disappoint. I should be home by late December and start editing it then. The difficulty of a one man production is a true statement. It mostly just takes so much time when its all on you but it also is equally rewarding to have completed a project like season 2. As long as I can keep floating it and enjoying the whole thing I will keep at it. You saying that I stack up to other vids out there is very kind, thank you. You did not mention what illness you are dealing with but if you use the word recovery it must mean that you are doing just that. I hope you will recover fully soon, man. Sorry you are dealing with it. I wear clip on Shimano MTS shoes that are four years old, boy are they tough. I actually have a new pair at home in a shipping box ready to have sent to me if these wear out but Im not sure it will happen. Take care and keep in touch.
@@FlyscoutRyder Thanks for your reply. I am all healed now - I can say I enjoyed the "sick time" while watching your series 1 & 2. As one who is still working on starting my first bikepacking/touring (1 -3 night trip) trip your adventures are a huge inspiration. I will check out the Shimano MTSs. Finally, I have to add -- Your attitude towards aspects of your trip are just so positive, man! - no matter what the hurdle - like the pack of vicious dogs that just wanted to " say hi" - or laughing (out loud) when climbing very steep hills ... what a cool way to live. Not much seems to faze you. Your destination to san DIEGO - seems to quite apt. Cant wait to see the new series - Safe travels 🙂 and thank you!
Thank you, Diego! What a great example in so many ways.
Thank you for watching
I know it’s been a while since you’ve completed, but congratulations! It seems like your experiences have transcended physical activity.
That's very nice of you to say, Rick. It's bittersweet for sure but I'm currently eight days into season 3 tour and it's awesome. Winter will be testing me as I head SE across the country so should make for interesting adventures. Thank you for all your comments and your support alongtheu way. Be safe
Wow! What an epic series this was. Hope all is well in Florida and I'm looking forward to seeing how the new bike works out.
Alaska would be another great challenge. Thanks for all the great video's. Take care and stay safe, Al
Hey Al. You've been there all along and I thank you for staying engaged. Alaska had to wait due to the new bike build and needing to finish editing the season before leaving home. Currently touring and gathering content for season 3. Hopefully by year's end
Another great ride across the country! Thank you for bringing all of us with you on your adventures. Looking forward to many more!
Hi John. Thank you for all your support all this time. You have been there for a long while and I can't thank you enough. Im going at it on this next tour and gathering greta stuff for a season 3. Stay safe and I will too
I watch a lot of bike touring videos and yours is hands down the best on on RUclips. Thanks for taking us along and thanks for putting so much into your videos. Looking forward to your next adventure. If you ever get discovered we’ll be watching you on the Travel Channel or Discovery 😂
The Travel Channel or Discovery? 🤣 That would be insane. You are too kind and I love it. Just the kind of fuel I need to keep doing this. Im currently touring the Pacific NW and gathering awesome footage of it all. Hoping to start editing by year's end after I get home. Thank you for being here watching what I throw out there. Be safe out there.
@@FlyscoutRyder Diego, I have a question about your saddle. I ride a recumbent trike, and keep thinking about 2 wheels again only because the trike isn’t practical everywhere. It looks like you have a Brooks saddle? Have you gone through a bunch before arriving at this saddle? Are they really comfortable? Just wondering.
I was biking the Katy trail across MO and had to cut it short to head home for the hurricane last week. Missed us in Bradenton but made the call call to go home when it was tracking over the house. Life in FL huh? Be safe out there and enjoy your trip. Good to hear where you are. I guessed you were headed to South America since it was so late in the year.
What an amazing adventure across such diverse countryside. I really enjoyed following along on your journey from over here in Australia. I loved how you always seemed to enjoy and appreciate the opportunity that you had even on the toughest of days. Looking forward to season 3!
Great comment , Michael. Yeah, it surprises me as well how the terrain changes so often while I'm bicycle touring. This happens organically and I think its because of the diversity of routes that cycling allows. One minute I'm on a highway and the next on a busy street in a neighborhood and then Im all alone in a bike path. On the same day. It's one of those things that captivate me about bicycle touring. Thank you for watching and reaching out. Season 3 is happening. Im touring now and gathering the content to share the stories. Most likely will start uploading by late December. Take care
I was so far behind on watching your episodes so I decided to skip to the end and watch your completion. I'll go back and watch the rest. Again, congrats on the completion of your 2nd tour in less than 2 years. That's an amazing feat of endurance and dedication. I'm sure the new Co-Motion bike will serve you as well as Scout did...🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️
Dude!!! You skipped?? lol im kidding. That’s cool. I don’t think the order you watch them matters but I have to say that the best part of the tour is between the first and last day 😁, truly. I hope you go back and take in the beauty of the process of seeing the terrain, culture, climate,and challenges change.
@@FlyscoutRyder well Diego, coming back to this earlier comment thread, I finished watching all of the episodes of your 2nd transcontinental tour and I left you comments along the way so you would know that I watched them. I had to re-watch this episode to tie it all back together again. All I can say is, it has been pure joy to watch you and vicariously be able to see so many things that I never would have otherwise. You have gifted us all who have a passion for cycling a wealth of amazing information from your many experiences. Again, thank you and Happy Holiday's. God Bless. Happy Trails Flyscout Ryder...🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️
Congratulations. I really enjoy how you have documented this. Thank you for putting in the work and sharing it with us. I'm looking forward to your next adventure!
Hi Matthew. Im currently touring across the country on a different route gathering awesome content for season 3. I should be able to start editing it towards the end of the year. Thank you so much for reaching out and watching the channel. It's a work in progress and your support means a lot. Be safe out there.
Thanks for taking us along!
Hi Danny. Thank you for watching and reaching out. It was a fun project and now Im on the next tour across more of this awesome nation. Should have the first installments by year's end.
What an achievement you have made. How nice to be able to travel with you on the journey. I look forward to your new adventure. Good luck with preparing your route and new bike.
Hello Henry. I am currently touring across the country gathering more content for a season 3. It's going great with crazy adventures and all kinds of great scenery. The route is from the Pacific NW starting in the Olympic Peninsula going south CA. Then east over Yosemite NP and into NV and UT to CO for some winter cycling over passes and then falling into NM and TX. From there I'll decide what next but so far that's the route. Bike is great and I will be sharing about it in the coming season. Thank you for watching and reaching out
Well done I like how professional you comment and edit the clips. Looking froward to the next journey .
Thank you Oliver. Season 3 should start uploading by year's end. Currently touring. Thank you for watching
I have really enjoyed riding my stationary bike in the winter months following you on both of your cross-country trips. Thanks for letting me ride with you…!
Very cool, Jack. I've heard other comments about watching the channel while on the stationary bike. Sounds like it's a good way to use the episodes. I'll soon be editing the first episode of season 3 so might have more content to ride with.
so much tanx for takkin us along. i commented often of similar rides. ;82 i did some of coast as failed to go cross cal. ( almost got arested for hitch hike with bike on i-10 west at border. not knew illegal that stretch. so mom showed same address , we pow wowed Compton . checked out Queen marry. 3 day employed ) i only rode coast. as ended Ocensice bro a gunny sgt Penalton> i bused SD

You are welcome Mark. Glad to be able to share my story and have other reminisce of like adventures. I hope to be able to do that myself someday. Currently touring the PNW and enjoying every mile. Stay safe out there
Congratulations, Diego! This has been a monumental year for you. I am looking forward to more of your adventures,but I wish you would find routes with less traffic. Stay well.
Routes with less traffic are hard to find but I will try. One of my goals is to share with people how to navigate with traffic so if they are in those scenarios they can figure their way thru them as well. I thank you for worrying about me and reminding me to be careful and avoid crazy roads when possible. I promise I will. Thank you for your support all this time. You've been there for a long while and I appreciate the encouragement. Season 3 should start uploading by the end of the year. So far is going great. Take care, Robert
I appreciate the hard work you do in setting up all your shots. Great video work and amazing adventures that you share.
Hello Charles. Thank you for watching and reaching out.
Well Done, Sir. Your accomplishments as a long-haul touring cyclist is only surpassed by your accomplishments as a documentary filmmaker. You deserve your rightful place amongst the top adventure youtubers posting content today. ~Mark
Hi Mark. That is very kind of you to share. I'm trying to progress and create a channel for the long haul bringing this type of healthy content. We'll see if I can keep up. I'm hoping it will generate income enough at some point so I can afford to spend more time at it. Your encouragement means the world to me. Thank you for being there all this time. Season 3 should start uploading by year's end and it is going really good. Im on week two of another crossing starting in the Pacific NW. Stay tuned.
Hey Diego, that was an awesome conclusion to your journey across America. It was great to follow you along, and a fascinating insight to the heart of the country. Brilliant photography and editing, truly first class production quality. Will look forward to seeing you on a Co-Motion bike journeying even more! Epic, well done!! 👍👌
Hi Christopher. Thank you for all your support and encouragement throughout this project. It's been a great tour and Im back at it in the PNW heading to TX into the winter. Should be interesting. So far it's all going great with plenty of adventure to boot. I should be home by end of year and start the new season 3. I wish you a great holiday season. Thank you very much. D.
@@FlyscoutRyder You’re very welcome Diego! Look forward to seeing more of your cycling adventures! 👍
Congratulations Diego - that's the second tour of yours that I've watched. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Looking forward to the next one.
Derek in Ottawa.
Hi Derek. Thank you for sitting thru this second season. It was a special one but so are all of them. Im spending much of my days on the water working my guiding season until July and thinking back as to how much fun it is to be on the road sure makes me miss it. Take care and thank you.
Congratulations on finnishing your trip. Watched every single one of your videos including all the one's from Cycling USA 1. I want to ask one question, your tent is made by Hilleberg but what is the model and can you reccommend it? Can't wait for your next adventure. Well done.
Hi Billy. Thank you for watching my channel. It's been a progression from the start and I have learned so much, especially about our nation and the beautiful people in it. The model is a Niak and I love my tent. I totally recommend it. Soon, I am planning to make review episodes while on tour (I just started 8 days ago) and I will be doing one about the Niak. Stay tuned for season 3. Should be before year's end. Thanks again for your continuing support. Be safe out there
@@FlyscoutRyder Thank you for your reply and the information about the tent. Glad to hear you are going to do a third series. I will be watching out for your next video. Look after yourself and thanks again. Billy
Thanks
You are welcome, Bill. Season 3 should start by year's end
Congratulations! Well done. Looking forward to your next tour.
Hi Roger. Im currently touring and gathering content for season 3. Its going awesome so far. Thank you for watching the series and reaching out
Yipes! What a terrific tour. It's been a pleasure following these first two trips of yours, and I look forward to following your next trips. On my rainy days here in Germany, I jump on my cross trainer and can watch your videos for hours on end. It makes me look forward to my own Vienna, Austria to Aachen, Germany trip this summer.
Psyched to hear you liked these first two seasons, Charles. I look forward to hearing what you think of 3 and 4 uploading now.
What an incredible season Diego, Congratulations on this Epic journey of yours! The Rockies were insane and I was fearful for your safety in those extreme conditions but you handled them like a Pro!
I’m slowly catching up on your videos & look forward to wherever your 3rd season takes you. All the Best & God Bless! Alejandro😎
Hi Alejandro. Im psyched to hear you watched this Season 2. It was as epic as any. Season 3 of the PCBR showcases the incredible nature and culture along the west coast. It is truly one of the best cycling routes the US has to offer. I hope you stick around. Im on a new tour recording Season 5. It’s of the Cascade and Sierra Nevada Ranges from Canada to Mexico. 8 National Parks included. Lots more on the way. Be safe and thank you for reaching out.
Congratulations! Another epic adventure! Makes me hungry for another trip! Well done!
Hi Roland and Julianna. That's is really nice for you to say. Yeah I \also get pumped to head back out there when I watch this last episode. I'm currently mid way thru doing a west coast route from the Olympic Peninsula down to Southern California. I hope you guys are staying on the saddle and enjoying this fall coming on.
Awesome! That’s not easy but you made it!
What a accomplishment
Thank you Carlos. It was a fun project. Season 3 should be uploading by end of December
Wow man. What a fantastic journey! Hats off to you sir!
Thank you. Season 3 has a bit of a different format.
Thank you for the content you do get! I know it is very hardwork getting it!!!
Thank you
Great editing! Who is you camera man? Lol
Oh yeah, it's a one man operation from one end to the other, lol 😁. Thank you for saying that. I'm trying to progress but no way will I ever have a camera man. I love to capture the content just as much as putting it together to tell the story and what bicycle touring and this nation has to offer. Season 3 will likely start uploading by year's end. Take care
Enjoyed all your trip videos. Magnificent job!
Thank you very much. More on the way starting Sometime in late December. Season 3...
congratulations sad to see it end have loved watching the entire series
Thank you for reaching out saying such nice things. Season 3 is getting gathered now form PNW to TX and so far it's far from disappointing. I should be home by end of December and start editing it before year's end. Thank you for your support.
I’m now left Jonesing for more. My feelings are bitter sweet, as I am sure yours are too, I’m happy that you completed this epic journey but sad the ride is over.
I’m looking forward to your Alaska adventure.
Thanks for saying that, very cool. Makes me get back on the road and I actually will in just a few minutes. I'm two weeks touring from the PNW to Texas and its going great. I should start uploading when I get back home by year's end. This region of the country is so unique, really enjoying it and meeting all kinds of nice people along the way. I couldn't make it to Alaska this year because of needing to finish the last season's edit into the summer and building the new bike. Lots on the plate. The idea is to cover all the states and Alaska is a must so it will happen. Take care, man. Thank you for your support and encouragement all this time.
Congratulations. That is amazing. Good luck with your future adventures. I got a whole set up for touring but I've been very busy homesteading. I will get out there someday
Hi Dana. Thank you for watching and reaching out with such a kind comment. I hope you get out there someday and experience the awesomeness that is bicycle touring. Im currently touring and gathering great content for a season 3. I should be editing and uploading by the end of year. Take care.
Great adventure, dude. Really enjoyed this series. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your support all this time. Season 3 coming soon.
@@FlyscoutRyder dude!!! Where to this time???
i felt your anticipation and excitement at reaching your goal, WELL DONE! Loved all the mapping and labeling you did for us. you have set a very high bar in video producing i believe. looking forward to the future trip. BRAVO&ENCORE🙂
Thank you Doug. I'm happy as to how this tour ended and happier to be able to share it with whoever might want to go thru the adventure it is to travel by bicycle across long distances. I'm on tour now and gathering more content for a season 3. Hopefully start uploading by years' end. Stay safe and thank you so much f0r your continuing encouragement and support.
Your videos are the best, and very inspiring I definitely enjoy the vides. Your filming is a whole different level you are very good at it. Excellent.
Dude, thank you. Can't tell you how much that means. I will keep at it and look to progress and hope you and everyone else gets something healthy out of it. Be safe and take care.
A huge congratulation of your brilliant cycling journey. New subscriber here in England🏴, UK🇬🇧, watching your amazing videos of your bike journey. Keep safe always Sir. I am always following all your fantastic ride. Good luck and God bless🙏👏🚴🏻♂️
So cool, all the way from England, love it, thank you, sir. I am currently in the Pacific NW gathering content for a season 3 and met up with a cyclist from London who was riding from Vancouver to Baja Mexico. We chatted a while and rode together for part of the day. Thank you for the encouragement. Take care
What a joy to watch your episodes, Diego. I’m planning my own cross country trip from West Coast (I live in Washington) to the East Coast. It was so inspiring to watch season 1 and season 2 back to back! I hope I come across you someday on the road. Hope you keep on riding, I’ll be watching!
I hope to meet you as well, Paul. Your appreciation for my efforts with the channel and its content tells me we have lots alike. Your tour will be a very much memorable and likely life changing. Regardless of what route you take across the upper half of the nation it will be top notch. You have to keep us posted
