    It’s a beautiful day in RUclips land when The Maven comes back to entertain us. Thanks.

    I was originally drawn to your work because of the “bloke riding around Melbourne” aspect. It made me realise that there was more than what I knew and encouraged me to explore more of our glorious city. I’ve barely scratched the surface and look forward to you showing the world and I what else I’m missing out on.

    The Maven never truly left tho did he.....we knew he was always there, just a little distracted by life.

    Ah Mark, I'm so happy to see you back!!! I started watching your videos 4-5 years ago and it inspired me to start cycling. I just completed a 600km ride in 21 hours yesterday by cycling the length of Ireland....thanks Mark ❤️

    When Maven cycles, we all cycle. Genuine tingles with that ethereal musical opening ***dusts off bike, heads straight out on a ride***
    Love the humility, "Prolly gonna start off pretty small"...turns up to the mass hoards of the Maven fan club...!
    Good on ya Mark

    The day has finally come. The day that my life as a cyclist just got extremely better. I discovered Cycling Maven just when my wife and I got into cycling years ago. You have provided so much inspiration and information about cycling that has greatly contributed to us being avid cyclists. Welcome back.

  • @MrEapea
    @MrEapea 3 года назад +4

    Amazing! So fun (for me in Sweden) to again be able to follow the cycling scene and the beautiful city of Melbourne from your point of view 😊
    Your channel thought me everything I needed to know before coming over there on exchange studies and through your videos I can still feel the connection to the city 🥰

    @shred3005 3 года назад +3

    Man, I’ve been wondering what you’ve been up to - been checking in on the channel from time to time to see if I’d missed a come back vlog… good to see you inspired to get back riding, fit and vlogging. All the best for the journey… I’ll be watching. I’m in finance but I’m a cyclist and yes, I came for the cycling content.

    @paulw9293 3 года назад +1

    So nice to see you back mate! We love what you're doing & have always done - in a way we're all growing (in mind not necessarily body haha!) With you. The joy of just being on the bike, with friends, or spending time with the fam is so special. I still wear my (now battered!) CM kit when riding which is kind of a homage to the happiness you bring us all. All the best to you & your fam Mark you're a cracking human - but we all know that 🙏🤙🚵✌

    Yeah.. like Lee and others have said.. I just started watching because you were just riding around Melbourne. And yeah.. I did help 'fund' the grant tours project, but I'm just here for a day in the life of Maven and nice imagery of Melbourne :)

Everything I love and miss about Melbourne you capture brilliantly and really does hit home for me. Welcome back, you've been missed.

    @jmr7river401 3 года назад

    Great news, I have been watching your channel for years with my son. The quality of your videos it’s amazing. I put my bike back in the garage 2 years ago, my big last ride was L’Eroica in Chianti 2018. It’s time to take the bike out. It’s crazy to think we all go thru these same phases in life. Good to see you back! You inspire folks like me to ride and explore new places while riding.

    I'm an Aussie who lives and works in France now. I'm from Melbourne, lived there 29 years.
    Great to hear from you,great to see my old home town,you even threw in some Aussie rules.
    You've heard of the butterfly effect, but for me your vlogs do me the world of good,and hey who knows i might pass on that positivity,who knows ?
    Love that accent,apparently i've still got mine.
    That old line,keep on keeping on.
    Cheers.

    Nice! Re-subscribed after a couple years away. Good to have the cycling back. I’m trying to stay motivated to ride but it’s hard with a 2-year old running the show. Love to know how you find time to ride with two kids (one when I last watched). Man, I miss Australia. Can’t wait for things to get back to normal.

  • @eddhobday
    @eddhobday 3 года назад

    Yes Maven!
    On your hiking video I commented that it was a Kraig Adams clone. I LOVE what you've done here though. Back to the cycling content but bringing that style of video to this genre. Love it!
    Glad to see you back man.

  • @NPJohn100
    @NPJohn100 3 года назад

    Oh my how I missed The Maven - ive often gone to your back catalogue to enjoy the cycling. Weight is so easy to put on. I crashed last September and have been off the bike until recently - put on about 6kg 😩. All the very best Mark from Scotland. Sorry I can’t make the ride 😏👍.

    Maven/Mark/Mate... this has made our day, sooo great to see you back in this format. Weather it's once a week or more, we don't care, it's just so great to see you and your fam back.
    We've been following you for years and have many fond memories of your videos (that we still re-visit), even dragging our young family down though Vic on our way to Radelaide, intercepting you guys on the Pilgramage and supplying you all with #beersformaven whilst also #prayformaven - 😂
    Chapeau Maven - 🤩

    Hey Maven! Greetings from Sunny Colorado (USA) I hope you and the family are doing well. I really liked watching your channel and My Wife and I had our first child right before you. Needless to say I am off the bike and Fat as F myself. Hopefully will get back on soon myself. The reason I am reaching out is one of your Vlogs you said where you get your music for your channel. I have been going back and watching them again but I can't find the site you had mentioned. would you mind sharing that with me?- thanks

  • @tomgoold8694
    @tomgoold8694 3 года назад

    So cool Mark! Love the vlogs. Like you haven’t even had a break. Crisp imagery. Good background music. Great content.
    Born to be a digital creator!
    Don’t start a new channel on investment, minimalism and other interests. Just roll it all into the one. I’m sure many of the subs would have great experience in many fields. Maybe a start would be to bring back the “good morning you cracking humans” guest appearances and give your subs a chance to exploit / plug their business and in turn you could do a Vlog on that person and what they do for a living and and why they love cycling. It would make a great combo!
    Love to come for a Thursday ride some time when borders re-open.
    All the best with it you cracking human!

So excited to see your family, your kids, you guys getting married and you coming back full circle to cycling. I was always subscribed to your channel but somehow lost track in the last year or two. Happy to be back. Might go out for bike ride after finishing work today .. Cheers.

    Maven is back?? 8 videos in 12 months is not exactly a commitment to your RUclips channel Mark. I know you've had your reasons, but you need to either commit to it or not. I hope you do because the content was good...I'm not convinced just yet 🤔

  • @devocean99

    Hey Mark! I'm the guy in Cape Town that sent you a clip for the intro to one of your vlogs back in the day. I'm in the process of applying for a skilled migrant visa to come and live in Aus and if I get it, would most likely end up in Melbourne. Would be super stoked to hook up for a ride.
