Hell yeah!! Congrats on this step. Endless support and love over here â€ïžâ€ïž
I just wanted to thank you for making this video. As a straight guy, I am extremely confident that I am more than a little ignorant about journeys such as this. By choosing to share with us on your channel, hopefully, it will help to educate myself and others to be more compassionate and understanding. I look forward to watching more of your videos.
As a 73-year-old straight grampa, I want to congratulate you for who you are. May I say it takes balls to tell the world? Best wishes, my wife and I wish you the very best.
We love you Ryan. In a world full of pretentious you tubers, your chanel has been a source of amazing content. May the tribe of RAD fa s grow. When I joined, this channel thee were 500 people, now 'we' are 15k!!!! To a 100k now!!!!
So I'm just an average bloke, so I only have a faint idea of your struggles -- but I think that everyone should do whatever makes them happy, and everyone else should leave them to do so and support them. Good on ya (that's Kiwi for 'well done') for telling us anyway. Happy trails :)
Yay! This is great news and I appreciate your candor and courage! You inspired me to go on a 3 month solo cycle tour of Europe that was just amazing and I was well prepared because of your videos. I have been back for a week and Iâm itching to get out there again. Your personal journey has been as inspiring as your bike info. I look forward to continuing this ride with you!
Woot! Congrats on discovering more of you in this adventure of life! When I saw your FB post on coming out I wanted to reach through the interwebs and give you a giant bear hug! Yay to you!! You are adorable and Darin is so lucky to have you! (you are equally as lucky to have Darin along side you for this journey!)
I have enjoyed many of your bikepacking/traveling videos and shared them with my better-half so much to the point that she *finally* wants to go car camping!! (13 years in the making!!) I look forward to your upcoming videos wherever they will lead you two. Thanks for being you. â€ïž
Love you Ryan. As a 75 year old straight grand-pop I wish you well on your journey. I followed you guys around the world and now I will follow you on this trip. Take care.
Awesome! We can see how nervous you felt and how much of a relief it is for you to share this with us. Massive support from us all moving forward, here's to you being the real you and we look forward to riding alongside you as your Rad Bike Adventures continue!
I had small smile that grew bigger and bigger towards the end. Putting yourself in such an uncomfortable and scary situation (making and releasing this video) will lead to so much growth and happiness! Looking forward to future content Ryan!
Right on! We support you and are happy for you! Wishing you a happy journey!
Congratulations ! Very happy/proud for you in this milestone on your joinery. Thank you for sharing. Cheers from Victoria BC!
Ryan , we have followed your cycling adventures from the beginning ...we love your energy and enthusiasm. We asked your advice for cycling in Taiwan and you kindly gave some good tips. So be who you are, a beautiful energetic bundle of enthusiasm...100% support from us .

Thank you so much for sharing this with us, Ryan! I'm so happy for you you, and so excited for everything to come for you! Sending you much love and support â€
You are amazing! I don't have enough words in my vocabulary to say how excited, thankful, scared, proud, encouraged, happy, worried, joyous, amazed, etc, etc of you we are. Best wishes. Looking forward to more updates, rides, and Adventures!
Right on, dude! Good for you! Much love and support for the energy that you are and the energy that you shall be. Looking forward to more rad bike content. Cheers!
Much love, Ryan. Made me cry. I'm about to dive into this bikepacking thing in what would appear to many to be a completely wild and reckless way... have been watching you and Darin since making that decision over the summer. What I'm starting this coming weekend is about far more than cycling and seeing stuff; I need to explore and discover my own self in myriad ways. You sharing this just makes me feel more strongly that this is the right choice. Very happy for you that you were able to overcome what you needed to in order to arrive at this point. Big hugs.
Ryan, I am so happy for you. I know what you have been going through trying to deal with this, 51yrs and counting. I have always enjoyed your channel and now I have another reason to watch. I wish you all the best on your journey. Lots of love
Blessing and joy to you! May this journey also be a wonderful adventure. I am just coming on to your channel and enjoying every one of them.
I'm so happy for you Ryan! That was an incredibly brave thing to do, brought me to tears seeing you come out to the entire world. I look forward to seeing more of your journeys, both in transitioning and on the bike. đ„°
Congratulations mate and happy coming out day. All the best for the journey ahead!
Congratulations Ryan :) This channel has been one of the best sources of knowledge and inspiration for me in my preparation for a world tour in 2023. It's been a staple go-to during lockdown. Thank you so much for that. This video is a completely new type of inspiring. All the best!! X
Sending loads of love and support - thanks for sharing you life with us all so honestly and openly.
Congratulations Ryan. I am also a transgender man from Brisbane, Australia and have been medically transitioning for the past 17 months. Hope your journey goes well. This channel has inspired me to start doing bicycle vlogs. :)
Cheers Luke!!
well done and so glad to check the comments and see so much positivity for a change on social media! You obviously have built up a very loyal and genuine following over the years so congratulations on that as well!
Really happy for you Ryan!
Big congrats! Love your videos and your enthusiasm and looking forward to more. Hope that coming out makes you even freer and more alive!
Great, Ryan! Thnx for this courage! Me and my son wish you ALL the best and we're waiting for you with happy news and great adventures after this one, the biggest of your life!
Iâm very happy for you, Ryan. Sending support an wishing the best for you & Darin as you continue your Rad adventures. â€ïž
Nothing but love and support for you!
Congratulations on coming out, never would have guessed, you're gorgeous, absolutely RAD. Keep on biking. Loved your adventures, binge watched it over a few weeks. xxx Phillip.
Lotta support and love from Italy, always on the saddle, always along your trip till the goal!
Props to you! Love your channel. Keep it up, and stoked for more videos to come!
Proud of you! I can't imagine what a complicated thing this could be to figure out!
Ryan, I'm so happy for you and I can only imagine what a weight is being lifted by being able to come out with this! I'm so thankful I get to work with you!
More power to you and Darren! I know that you will get all of the support you need (and more). Let us all celebrate love and happiness and show mercy to those who hold hate in their hearts, as we build a better tomorrow together.
Newish to the channel so a bit behind the news so belated congratz, nice to see that the community can come to blows over your choice of pedals but how we live or who you love is not a problem. No matter what you ride a Kona so your beautiful ;)
Thanks for sharing. Do not leave us out of your journey. We enjoy watching both of you.
Cheers, bro! Enjoy your transition and all the happiness that comes with it. Just landed in your channel and looking forward to watch more of your videos.

On this day that is dedicated to gratitude, I am grateful for YOU! I have become a big fan of the RAD channel and that is because of YOU. I wish you nothing but love and the best with your transition. It hurts that you have to deal with stupid comments. Love yourself and focus on those who support you.

Way to go Ryan! Iâm here for ya âïž
Congrats, Ryan. Welcome to the world of living as your true self. I am a 67 year old transwoman who is making my way back to cycling after a hiatus due to arthritis in the hands. I hope to be bike touring by the end of the summer. You and Darren provide some really helpful content.
Congratulations!!!! Yay! Happy to hear the news and...wow...you must feel amazing right now! Cool beans! Yay!
Thank you Ryan for giving us a chance to share this moment with you. Sending you oodles of supportive hugs and love.
You got this!! I love the channel. SUPPORT â€ïž
Thank you for sharing this with us, Ryan. It takes great strength and vulnerability to announce this to "the world" and I wish you all the good that you wish for yourself.
Wish you all the best from far away!
Got a little happy tear in my eye for you. Rad on Ryan!
Hi Ryan.
Wow, courage plus.
I'm an old straight guy, I love your channel. You and Darrin are inspirational to me staying on my bike and hoping to get out for a tour one day.
I'm have been staring at this screen for about 1/2 an hour trying to come up with a supportive comment that won't come off as me being a jerk (I'm not)
We don't know each other but I have to say that I am proud of you.
I think if we met we would be friends. I'm an introvert so it would be your crazy outgoing extrovert personality that would scare me more than anything else, but after a beer and some bike talk I'm sure that would go away too.
Congratulations and you have my full support.
My 6 year old grandson is identifying as female.
He showed up to my son's wedding wearing a pink dress and a pink purse.
Most of my family was a little shocked, some were horrified.
I grabbed my "granddaughter", put her on my lap and gave her a great big hug and kiss.
Hopefully, her journey will be a little easier because of people like you.
Love ya.
Fantastic! I've seen almost all of your youtube films, and they're great. Whether you're men, female, strait or gay, doesn't matter. You're you, and I love you both. Rad on! Hugs and kisses from Norway.
Thank you for letting us into your beautiful life. Happy that cycling helped you along the way.
So proud and wish you/they (hope I got this right) all the best from oz.
Awesome! Always follow your dreams!
Congratulations and best wishes.x
I appreciate your honesty and bravery. Life is such a roller coaster and journey of self discovery.
Good for you Ryan.
Congratulations Ryan!!
Hell yeah homie. Proud of you!
You do you, Ryan. You're awesome, brave, inspiring, and talented. Love your content and look forward to your future videos. Sending you good vibes and happiness during your transition.
Well done Ryan. Courage hugs to you both
What a beautiful video. Thank you so much for sharing it.
well , i wasn't expecting that ! , that took guts Ryan , and it makes no difference because you still make awesome you tube content , best wishes đ
Iâm so happy for you!!!
All the best on your journey Ryan. Wonderful video, looking forward to the next installment of the RAD Life Adventure :)
Good on ya! I love your heart!
Awesome! All the best wishes for your journey and thanks for sharing...
Proud of your courage, Ryan! With you all the way!
So brave and inspiring. We love and support you as we all have been. Keep on being Rad!
Congratulations and best wishes to you and those you love.
Good for you, Ryan. I'm a nearly 70 year old straight Englishman, but admire your happiness and vitality. Life is what you make it.
Well said and well done! I'm 62 and have been tolerant of any gender my entire life. That wasn't taught, or learned... it's just how I felt... indifferent, but in a positive way. And LGBTQA doesn't bother me or matter to me in a negative way Our gay friends are happier, healthier, more fun and WAY more tolerant and respectful than most of our other friends. If ANY person AT ALL threatens me or my family directly, I will go RAMBO on them, regardless of how they identify. Other than that, I don't really care who you are or what you do with your life, as long as it does NOT bring harm to OTHERS. That is just plain disrespectful and should be dealt with accordingly. Make it a GREAT day!!!
Congrats Ryan! Yay for you dude! My young trans brother is coming to live with me and I found your channel and I was thinking of helping him on his journey with taking him riding with me. You have inspired me to try biking again! Congrats! We love u!
Good for you!
Love you for your courage!
