And KZread recommendation got us all together again to watch this legendary Human cycle through North.
How could anyone watch this and not say something about the trek. Being born in western Canada, I've been to most of the places this guy has but in a climate controlled truck. To do what Iohan has done on a bicycle, especially in the Yukon winter is nothing short of incredible. Thanks for sharing this and planting more adventure seeds in my head.

Miss you man…..
GREAT documentary my friend. I did a cycling trip around Europe on my own in 2008 - cycled for 7 months with a tent, a camera and a change of clothes. To this day it was one of the most freeing and amazing experiences in my life. I didn't quite have the same dramas with ice and bears but still had some tremendous lows and even more tremendous highs. It was partly a journey of self discovery for me - asking myself questions that I've never asked myself and meeting the most amazing, friendly and giving people on the planet. For me it was a profound chapter in my life that opened the gateway to the next phase of my life. SO glad you were able to document your journey on video!!

Iohan inspired me to take those adventures. I now am a bikepack and have seen so many places..We will miss you. May you find the peace and adventures beyond.

You're living the life. seeing the beautiful unspoiled Canadian wilderness and experiencing the local cultures along your way. I envy you. haha.
Watching these videos gave me the courage to quit my job and travel (bike, walk, hitchhike) across the U.S. I started out in Chula Vista California and wanted to head to Maine. I got mugged in Baltimore now I suffer from sever PTSD and Agoraphobia. I have barricaded myself in my room and haven't left the house for almost 2 years. I don't know what the sun feels like anymore. If I hadn't watched this series I never would have traveled and I'd still have my sanity.

I love how very subtly he picks up the canadian slang. I hear so many "ohhhh yeah"s its beautfiul. As a person living in america who was born in canada I do the exact same thing every time I visit family in canada
NOOOOOO; HE CAN'T BE DEAD 😭😭😭😭 He is my complete inspiration..I have lived through him as I have been going through a great depression for the past 4 years... I wish I had the chance to meet him and tell him how he saved my life through his footage.
