    Nice job and a full pillow (awesome) road tyres and sand😅 cheers for the kilometres conversion 🏆 and your cooking love it.
    I'm heading out on Sunday for a local 3day camp (rainforest not desert)
    Green break on and keep on keeping on 🦘

      Rainforest > desert. We have a major lack of shade here.

      Indeed much better then my pure air mattress. Just takes a ton of room.

    I would guess that was a Cactus Wren egg. They nest in multiple types of cactus. Its common for eggs to fall out of the nest. Most likely not alive.

      This next video I'm editing I had a bit of problems so it will have the return trip. Poor bike going to be undergoing repairs as I wait on parts to fix it. Until then I have 2 broke bikes.

    Thanks for the great video 😊
    I call your chiar the Brick 😅😅😅
    Taco salad was different and cool .
    I would've eaten the egg 🖐😌
    I couldn't talk myself into taking the trailer on my upcoming trip.
    I would've found a spot to hang my hammock or built one .I'm leaving my air mat behind ths time 💪
    You have really motivated me 😬 thanks

      @@Eric_Tennant That's a good thing - I've watched his videos since he started - He's been on some fabulous tours and does an excellent job composing his content. I thought it was touching when he went on a tour in Africa where he hired a guide to go with him. The guide was just a wonderful guy and he made Ryans experience first class. Ryan had to rent a bike because he couldn't get his bike out of customs. Ryan discovered during the tour that the guide was using a borrowed bike. The guide after the tour ended helped Ryan get his bike out of customs - a huge ordeal. Ryan gave the guide the bike! (one of his super belt drive bikes) Very generous - Now the guide had a bike of his own so he could continue his career as a guide and help develop the trail as an African tourist destination. He's one reason I watch your channel because of RUclips common subject algorithms rang you up.

      I've seen that video as well. Was a good tour. I was watching Duzer before I started making RUclips videos or even touring, and some of my filming style I got from watching him.

    Such a stunning view. It's pretty crazy that where you're at resembles almost exactly what Wildrose Canyon in DVNP is like. Colors and all. The desert is such a wonderful place.

    the salsa over the seasoning packet is a smart move that I never thought of before. I would imagine it's still a salty but has to be significantly less saltier and probably a better texture and taste. I love making tacos like this at home as I'm single no children, so every week I eat a few cheap tasty good things that are easy to make as well. Tacos being one of them and spaghetti the other. I'll grill a steak at home as well and grill hot dogs and hamburgers, but really anything outside of that I'm useless, I'd rather just go to a restaurant for lol

      I do all types of riding. For long highway tours its still good to try to get 1 mile off the highway for a better rest or ear plugs also work, but I've yet to use the ear plug method.

    I drove once from Laughlin to LV (free flight package from MGM to Laughlin but we already had plans to drive up for a concert stay 1 night and drve back down to laughlin, I live in Michigan) and I remember the whole time thinking on the drive this is all really beautiful but the vastness of it was almost making me feel claustrophobic. I remember at one point looking way out into the desert and seeing a truck with the bed camper and thinking to myself I watch van lifer type content all the time but driving by that in the middle of literally nowhere put it way more into perspective for me.

    Great video good sir! I really liked your 28ish night to morning edit :) Edible ice packs - excellent idea. And yes, dry bags vs tiny tent bags. Also can be used as a shakable laundry bag...

    • @kendallparish5611
      @kendallparish5611 7 месяцев назад +3

      I encourage the the one wheel style trailer - particularly out east - you'll find lot's of single tracks through the woods out east. Found it handy on Erie canal trail and other trails in Illinois and Indiana I've been on.

    • @dennisyoung4631
      @dennisyoung4631 7 месяцев назад +2

      The one-wheel trailer needs to be loaded down low, and weight needs to be kept down, e.g. for the B.O.B. trailer, the listed weight is 75 pounds, but I recall a more realistic weight of about half of that in the one I had (when hauling groceries.)
      Electrification helps a *LOT* when hauling trailers of all kinds.

      @@kendallparish5611 both, in my case, with groceries being the rule (2-3x/month) and those things needed for travel when I should do so during the dry season. Note that when traveling, I *tend* to stick to paved surfaces as much as possible, due to “range anxiety” - don’t like to go more than 20-40 miles between an hour or so of charging, depending on speed and terrain. I have a 31 amp-hour battery, which gives a ~ 55 mile range + 10+ mile reserve. This figure is based on the ability to cope with hills - as in long steep hills become an issue if voltage under power drops much below about 48 volts.
