I biked across the U.S. and vlogged every day

Спорт

I biked across the United States with my dad in June and July of 2023. We posted a vlog every day on my Instagram and TikTok, and here is a compilation of those memories. It is wild to watch how the style evolved, how our energies changed from day to day, and the different colors of our faces!
I'm still vlogging regularly on Instagram and TikTok. You can find links to my pages here:

    I wish I knew about this when you were doing it, would have loved to have followed day to day with you and your dad. I also enjoy riding my bike its electric assist did 3400 miles in about 3 months (nothing like you boys) what an inspiration. I live in Canada so no riding most of the winter but I found myself thinking man 3400 miles I could have just gone on a long ride instead of my 50 miles a day or so. We lost our Dad almost 2 years ago it would have been amazing to spend that much one on one time taking on adversity everyday but carrying on! gentleman thanks for posting, it makes me feel good thinking there's lots of love and new friends on the way. PS you Dad id a legend what a stud!!!

    Nice ride. A father and son trip and you two were booking it, but in a very civilized manner. You might want to consider Schwalbe marathon tires they are a little heavy and a little slow rolling but have 5 mm of rubber between the outside black outer and the inner tube. I have not had a flat in years. I ride every surface a bike can travel on from chuck hole city streets, highways, dirt and crushed rock, sometimes all in one day. You two are now honoree Nebraska Citizens now that you have partaken of Runza (book bag in an old German dialect.)

    In Wyoming, Bicycles have the same legal access to all public roads, even interstate highways, because there are not a lot of roads to choose from. I actually feel safer riding on the highway, then riding in town.

    Did a transcontinental tour from Bellingham, Washington to Sandy Hook, New Jersey along the northern tier, and Ontario Canada in the summer of 1993. Was the ride of a lifetime! Thank you for sharing your trip with us, brought back all of those wonderful memories from 31 years ago. I think I will go find my journal and reread it.

    What tires where you using, and did you use any kind of sealant in them? I run Schwalbe Marathon Plus tires. Thorn resistant inner tubes, with a sealant, but not slime.
