Cycling 35.000 kilometers around the world
Cycling 35.000 kilometers around the world (S1E1)
Hi everyone,
Here it is, the long expected very first video of my grand tour. These videos will be a weekly update about all my adventures on and off the road. So if you're interested in following me, please consider subscribing to the channel.
For those who are new to the project; My name is Koen and I am currently attempting to ride my bicycle around the world. The trip will cover 35.000 kilometers, crossing 30 countries and 4 continents. At the same time I am trying to raise money to build a school in Africa. With 30 kilograms of luggage I will have to face steep mountain hills, snowy road, dry desserts and all other sorts of extreme conditions.

Great video. I'm curious how much time you spend each day capturing the video content vs time actually riding. It looks like most video shots require you to stop riding, set up the camera , back on the bike, then back to collect the camera. Is there ever a sense of urgency to ride rather than capture content?
Yeh impressive video storytelling

35000km journey around the world on a cycle...brave guy
Very cool intro
Very nice to See this First Film again. See your mam, who is my colleague, and your dad who I met at EUSUHM.
Very good video. It would be nice if you could provide more information about the route you took, e. g. maps.

Background music a bit too loud at times. Did you follow Ed Pratts around the world on a unicycle.
That’s dutch weather! Heel veel succes Koen! Kun je in je volgende afleveringen iets vertellen over de route die je volgt?

Just found first video of your trip. Good stuff. Laat me weten als je in de buurt van Berkeley, CA komt, dan heb je een logeer plek of rij ik een stukje met je mee.. Good luck !
Great adventure and filming. Having survived a simple crash only by wearing a helmet, I would ask you consider always wearing yours while riding... and find a way on your adventures to film without having to ride one handed. Good Luck!

More risk of head injury being in a vehicle or a pedestrian and yet we don’t force helmets on those. Why? Compulsory car helmets and walking helmet, if we want to use real evidence on the activities that have significant head injury risk far greater than cycling.

@@bikepackingadventure7913 firstly, my comment was simply in the sense of using my own experience to offer a suggestion to a young man facing more hazard in his excellent adventure than any road cyclist . second, your statement about relative risk is nonsense and not borne out by any studies I have seen or by my experience: I cycled 17 years in London traffic and never once did I feel more safe than the pedestrians and car drivers.. Finally no-one is forcing helmets on anyone, but anyone who realises the risk and weighs dubious "freedom" against it will make that choice.

There are actually very few who wear helmets in The Netherlands. I personally do wear one, but if it was a serious crash I very much doubt that a few cms of polystyrene will make much of a difference.

Why build a school in Africa though? what's the connection between you going on a trip and kids in Africa?
