    One of the riders kissing the ground is exactly what I would have done after that ride! Amazing series, scenery is so beautiful, trails make me want to just hop on my bike and ride!

      Haha, that was me! The same “Ryan” he mentioned getting sick overnight. I ended up riding that whole day powered by electrolyte drinks and a banana. Brian doesn’t mention it because we were losing daylight but after Patacancha we did a bonus lap of Pumamarca. Gassed! It was a GREAT day on the bike!

    This ride was 20.7km with 1400m of descending and only 141m of climbing. I guess it was “cross country” compared to most everything else on this trip! Another great video Brian! 🙏

    15,000ft. Amazing dealing with wind, hail, cold, new wet rocky cliff side trails, lack of O2, headaches... and you can still narrate your rides like a pro.!

    Awesome video that showcases the beauty and adventure of exploring the Peruvian Andes on a mountain bike. About this video I would love to say that:
    "Sometimes the most unforgettable journeys are the ones that take us off the beaten path, where we can connect with nature, challenge ourselves, and discover the true essence of a place."

  • @tinakam8557
    @tinakam8557 Před rokem +9

    I couldn't take my eyes off the trail, it was like I was riding it, including feeling my stomach drop on some of those narrow sketchy spots. Your little squeaks and eeks were priceless. So many dogs in Peru, we never had any issues, but walking by they usually ignore you. All different kinds everywhere. The street dogs in Cusco are unlike dogs anywhere else in the world, they have their own little society separate from humans and unconnected to humans. It was so interesting to see how they interacted, greeted each other and played. I've never seen anything like it. They completely ignore people and just do their own thing.

    • @robertodaleyoshida4765

      :) dogs just do their own things in many places in Peru, not just Cusco :) But, actually they do follow human orders when requested.

  • @Vivendocadadia

    When I went to Peru I said to the guys from Holy Trail guides that I wanted only full 100% downhill trails and that I didnt wanted to do not even 50 metters uphill, specialy in Cusco where the base altitude is 3.000 metters. Pedal uphill in 3 thousand metters is for braves. Cant wait to come back to Peru and ride that mystic magic trails.

  • @robertodaleyoshida4765
    @robertodaleyoshida4765 Před rokem +1

    Hi Brian, looking the video, it seems to me that the meal of El Chuncho, was the peruvian ancient “pachamanca”, that now includes various types of meat (cow, pork, alpaca, cuy, chicken, etc.) with potatos, sweet potatos, corn, etc. all seasoned with local ingredients, carefully packed with big plants leaves (ex: banana leaves) and roasted underground with the heat of stones previously exposed to fire. Hope you enjoyed it.

    Living in CO, I live at 6200'. Last Summer I did a camp/ride in Leadville at 10k'. Lemongrass Tea is great alternative for altitude sickness. Make it cold or hot, but if you are hydrating properly, you can ward off altitude sickness. But adding lemongrass to your water bottle in a tea ball for a ride is a good way to go as well.
