Love it, and love the edit and music. There's a lot of this kind of content out there now, and the cuts from Josh and Ryan are unique and different. I'm a fan! Great ride man, that last 160mi looked like a sufferfest!

absolutely love the music as well! jungle, drum and bass, dubstep, and garage are personally what gets me through rides. I think it’s a very nice personal touch on this genre of video
Loved the edit, love the music and love the quirky way it was put together, think it added to the experience! Quite jealous....
Loved the edit on this one Josh. Well done on your finish
Really enjoyed that. I love it when people put the extra effort in the edit using suitable music and mixing it up. I got a real feel for the ride. Much better than edits which are 90% of the rider's face and virtually no feel of the scenery or terrain. All the best in the TCR.
What a route! Thanks for taking the time to make this video and show us what the terrain and scenery are like. Epic.
Another awesome ride and video Josh. Love the style, gives an idea of the delerium that rides like this bring along, keep doing them❤ (great work Ryan❤)

Yeah exactly. I got the vibes of The Beach and Touching the Void.
Absolutely LOVE the filming, the edit, the music, the ride, the flow and story this tells! Keep it up Josh and Ryan! Epic.
phenomenal ride + route josh! defs one for the bucket list. loved the editing😎
I dig the style. A bit music video-esque, but why not? And of course a pretty big effort. Kudos! 👏👏👏
Great video!! The turtle beating you on the hike a bike shows digging deep and maybe how hard you pushed yourself.
Great to see this what a beautiful countryside. Apologies for armchair critique but a very bold edit style. Cool for a shorter promo but quite hard to watch at this length - the scenery supplies most of the eye dazzling trickery. In any case thanks for making and sharing I know how much work these are.
Great piece
Cool as video you guys! Great job! I think you need to gather your most popular ride videos and bung the footage to Ryan for his magic hands! Then have em on a playlist so we can play them on the big screen in the office all day! Monetised of course ;) Keep up the good work
Amazing looking place. Liking the edit, mixes it up a bit.
Great job, awesomely done video and music selection.
Ryan putting together another banger. Great vid, amazing edit 👌🏻
Awesome result Josh. Huge respect as always..👍👍
Jolly good... Great music and lovely photos at the end.
Great stuff 👍👍
Nice one Josh. This might be a personal opinion, but the music and editing take away from the video for me. I'd rather hear the sounds of the ride over music and the jumpy editing was a bit much on the eyes. Not to take away from the amazing scenery and great result, just a personal opinion.

I have to say I'm with you on this one. The photography is breathtaking and the commentary comes from a guy who knows his stuff. Let's listen to Josh and let the pictures do the rest. I suggest no silly visual effects or janky music, for what it's worth.

It becomes a little too much, so much so that I stopped watching after five minutes

I agree, just feedback, the visual effects played havoc with my eyes, . Great video aside from that, and makes one realise even the elite athletes get the grumps Not just me!

Better GoPro nowadays!
Killer!
Respect for your achievement, but the weird gimmicks in the film (flash cuts, speed ups) detracted rather than enhanced sorry..
How many GoPro batteries do get through for that much footage over a race? Would be interested to know more about the filming etc, how you prioritise power for navigation/lighting vs power for cameras!
Well done on the ride. It looked awesome. Not a big fan of the edit with the upside down, backwards and jerky shots. Would like it much better with a "regular" edit.
Congratulations, how many days ??
There's nothing that 3 espresso's can't fix
What did you say at 16:40
I guess the editing could be toned down but then it'd look like everyone else's :) Music was on point. Anyway, well done. How much HAB was on this? Looked a bit easier surface than AMR but how would you compare the two, Josh? Cheers

Comparable to Atlas in terms of surface... rough broken tracks at times, but also a fair bit of tarmac and smooth gravel... the balance seemed about right. Hikeabike is fairly minimal, again probably comparable to Atlas but over a longer race duration. Also dependant on conditions and fatigue levels... sometimes I was just pushing as cycling was the same speed so it made no real difference

@@joshibbett Yeah, I know the feeling. I'm VERY used to walking next to my bike these days :) Guess that's another event on an ever-growing to-do list!
too flashy with the short, fast editing. Hard to watch
This needs a flashing images warning. 6:47 was especially bad for people with photosensetivity issues. Shame because i would have liked to have seen the rest.
Awesome ride as always - horrible edit that I could not bear to watch for more than a few minutes.
Nice ride. The edit sucks though. That spastic uoside down backwards is not enjoyable if you are trying to.see the scenery.
Beautiful country, please don't ruin it with the choppy edits and upside down video.
Fortunately, you ride a bike better than you edit videos ;-)

@Ryanlegarrec was gonna reach out - love your glitch edits - and the music choices you make. I ride ultras myself I can relate to "the glitch" - as a rider myself Iride all day, over big distances away from people, but remember so little just a glitchy patchwork of memories and moments of places I visit.
