    1. Beautifully shot. Still feel you would massively decrease the time you spend setting up shots if you got an action cam, or two, such as a Go-Pro and or Insta 360. Would also add more variety of shots as well especially of actually riding e.g. descents without having to run back the whole time to get your camera for just a few seconds of footage of riding quickly down a pass or switchbacks. Still great shots though. This area of Slovenia looks breathtakingly beautiful. To be continued ………

    2. Almost wanted to grab a cookie when Belén offered you one, haha! It's amazing to see what you guys have been up to 🙂 Really beautiful shots!

    3. Beautiful shots and music to accompany them! Helping me take a little imaginary bike trip before work. Have you posted the recipes for what you make on this trip or others anywhere? A lot of what you make looks pretty good!

    4. Hi Tristan, looking to do this route in summer – do you think it would be possible to complete on gravel bike with ~35-40 mm tires? What’s the width of your tires that you used? Cheers

    5. Great movies! You motivated me, even I am Slovenian and I was biking that routes few times. I have to do it again! There is just one minor thing!?
      There is stricly prohibited to camp in Triglav national park (outside dedicated camping places, overnight)! You can be punished with a fairly high fine! There was a case where the boys post a movie about their adventure on utube and later received a greeting in the form of an “invoice”.
      In general, Slovenes very rarely camp outside official campsites.

    6. Hi Tristan, another awesome adventure through your eyes. Slovenia has the majestic beauty but you have the keen eye for composing the perfect picture. I thoroughly enjoyed that. Panoramic views,misty switchbacks, your video took me on a ride through paradise. Thank you,thank you!
