‘Alone in the Wild’ Cycling Iceland

Thank's Maudi for briefly talking about mental aspect of touring. I find that aspect of touring very interesting. I hope "the light that goes up" continues to do so.

Really liking your videos, I have been watching for some time now. I especially liked your video where you showed the actual bad days (truths) while touring by bike. I would like to see more of that in some videos. Maybe at the end you could highlight them ?
I would love to know a couple of things.
1. what about your butts. How do you overcome soreness being on the bike for so many hours a day while touring?
2. What software do you use that shows your route on the map of the countries you go through?
3. How do you sustain a supporting income while travelling?

One of my most remote experiences took place in a State Forest that isn't so remote but just big enough to get lost. It was only a day trip in January, and it was fun everything went great riding my bicycle in and throughout the forest in warm 50-degree weather. Finally, the sun starts to get low temperature starts to drop and I realize that I don't know how to get back to the car. After frantically exerting my energy to get unlost my legs just stopped working during the final climb back to the parking lot. I am not exaggerating when I say they stopped working I mean one-second pedaling next second falling over into the ditch on the side of the road. I couldn't even put my foot down to catch my fall, like being clipped in and unable to unclip. I laid there in the ditch like roadkill laughing because I knew what was happening, but it was very weird and scary to not be able to use my legs I wasn't paralyzed, and I knew that I would just need time in the ditch. Eventually, I recovered and finished my accent by pushing my bike and then pedaled to the car. I proved that day that we can feel very remote in a not-so-remote place. As for inspiration you should pay attention to the time of day and start your search for home sooner or set up camp before dark. It seems that you two already know this, but you also know that this beautiful planet that we live on can cause you to forget what time it is. So be careful out there and know when to stop. Thanks for the channel.

Another great video. I never cease to be amazed at how tough you are. You have been in some harsh places over the years but you continue to upbeat and positive no matter how difficult the terrain. Keep smiling guys. You are a great inspiration to many. Stay well and thanks

What a beautiful place! Thanks for sharing your adventures with us! Keep it up. Both of you got lots of strength riding very far places… 😊🚴

Awesome video

thanks guys for another great video

Awesome

Your best Iceland video so far. Stunning views and that empty 6km tunnel was amazing!

Cold at night! But 2 Indians under one blanket will not freeze.

I know we keep repeating ourselves but your videos are really getting better each and every time. I loved hearing your reflections and the amazement in your voices. I was wondering, would you ever like to talk about the editing process for your videos? How do you decide which material you'll use, when do you take the time to do these little interviews with each other? and so on. I'd be very curious 🙂

I always share your video to my friends and relative also to my team in bike packing. 😊 Take care EAndM. Godbless the both of you. 😊 ❤️

I have taken that same route by auto in 2019, I'm to old for the bike tour (63) but wish in my younger days
I could have done as you have. You see so much more and I can see how that environment moves your emotions
as the weather plays on you. Thank you for sharing these moments of your life on the road in Iceland.

It's poetry in motion! Love you guys.

加油！

Truly spectacular 😍 thank you both so much for sharing this incredible place 🤗

So amazing! Looks like a fantasy land! Good work. One little advice 🙂 …. Please put some lights on your bikes when going through a tunnel…. it is very very dangerous to go with no lights. Cheers from Australia!
