很棒的路線行程風景 感謝分享（來自台灣

Hei, nice shoots. Small suggestion: photos look better on black background 😀

Laughed out loud when you started saying "good night" to the posters.

Amazing scenery but I also enjoyed your connection with each other. Memories to remember. Come to Canada and I will definitely host both of you.

You videos capture the tranquility and joy of bike touring, which the viewer can enjoy as quiet observer from home. I like it and really look forward to cycling through Turkiye one day.

Just discovered your channel. It was so relaxing watching your video. The scenery was so tranquil and peaceful. I was amazed you rode through those snowy mountains 🚵‍♂️🚵‍♀️ 😮 What kind people they were to allow you to stay and give you food.

Hallo Ihr Zwei, es ist doch eine unvergessliche Reise, ursprünglich durch die Natur, entschleunigt und doch immer spannend und aufregend. Sich auf Land und Leute einlassen. Davon werdet Ihr noch in 50 Jahren erzählen, Ihr tragt soviel Eindrücke im Herzen und Erinnerungen werden Euch immer ein Lächeln ins Gesicht zaubern. Alles richtig gemacht! Tolle Reise, fantastische Eindrücke die Ihr mit den Zuschauern und Followern teilt. Und alles kommt total entspannt und ruhig rüber, wie Ihr auch die Natur respektiert und ehrfürchtig die Weite betrachtet - einfach nur toll. Herzliche Grüße an Euch. Danke das Ihr uns mitnehmt, wenn auch nur Stückchenweise.... 😉 - Frank

I subscribed to your channel, so I'll definitely be following more of your adventures in the future.

Hello, I feel very much part of your community. Your videos are truly amazing. We need to explore the world, its people and cultures. There are so many wonderful people around, may be we just have not knocked their doors. My personal motto is 'let us leave no trash behind'. Keep exploring, best wishes

your whole video very interesting.

A very good Video 👌

Esta mui bonito el video

lindo viaje !!!! saludos desde ARGENTINA!!

Muito obrigado por partilharem. Tudo aparenta ser muito tranquilo, mas sabemos que foi duro. As imagens são de grande beleza e muito motivadoras. Esta natureza em estado puro, já não existe em muitas partes do globo. Em Portugal ainda existem lugares por explorar, mas não sabemos por quanto tempo.

Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful ride! Beautiful! Epic! I just landed yesterday after a a tour through Central America and Colombia, now I think my next destination will be Turkey 🇹🇷 it seems the algorithm knows me well (Yuval Harare says so in his book Homo Deus, which I read while on tour) and this video was recommended to me. I have a request for you: Could you make a video about your bikes and set up? In my recent tour I had a typical touring set up with panniers but my type tour is off road and like gravel and the panniers didn’t perform well for me, before watching your video I already had an idea of what I want but it would be nice if you can share yours with us. Thank you!

Gut gemacht, unaufgeregt und sehr sympathisch. Habe jetzt auch die ersten 10 Folgen des Podcasts gehört, ergänzt ganz gut die Videos. Eine praktische Frage. Die Seitentaschen habt ihr aufgegeben, die Hüftenpacks sind dazu gekommen. Warum? Sind die Hüftentaschen auf dem Rad bequem zu tragen? Danke und macht weiter!

@HenryMerk

2 жыл бұрын

Danke dir =) Die Seitentaschen sind bei Regen immer voll gelaufen, das war sehr unpraktisch. Weiterhin haben wir gemerkt dass wir nicht soviel Platz brauchen und Gewicht sparen können. Bei den Hüftpacks ziehen wir die Regenjacke einfach drüber wenn's regnet.. außerdem sind die super griffbereit, mit einer Drehung hat man sein Geldbeutel, Pass, Kamera, Snacks usw sofort am Bauch parat und auch sonst beim Einkaufen immer am Körper. Nicht alle Hüfttaschen sind bequem, wir haben extra geschaut, dass die einen breiten Gurt haben und nicht so schwitzig auf der Haut sind...finden die bis jetzt super.
