🤔 Where would you love to ride these bikes? 🚲
The whole distance of the Philippines
@@mspaduhilao7581that would be amazing
Nowhere, really... One of those weighs more than I do.
No.. no😁
I wouldnt
Tern can consider their marketing sponsor money well spent. I want one. Good video nonetheless.
One of the funniest GCN videos ever: just having a laugh with your mates - a proper feel good film.
Hi, thanks for the comment. So glad you enjoyed it! 👍
I always know when I see Sy and Hank together it’s going to be an entertaining adventure
Properly laughed out loud when they had lunch at a picnic table. Hilarious. Great work fellas.
You guys need one more person and you'll be the new old top gear. On bikes!
I love hearing Si describe a bike-he can describe the adverts in a magazine and I’d still enjoy it. This was fantastic
Hahahaha sounds like GCN is your dream then 😉
Miss GCN+... Would've killed for another hour of this film. Si and Hank - pure gold. Loved the film. Well done team.
Was thinking the same thing!
We miss it too 😢 Would you like to see some longer videos on the channel?
Yes please! @@gcn👍👍
Yes. Bring us the documentary films again. The Himalayan one is THE best film I've watched and I'm sad I'll never get to see it again
@@benshannon3121 agreed, that one was mega.
Two big kids having fun. Bikes, camping and laughter. Pure gold. What's not to like? (Aside from the weather, of course.) :) Great stuff!
The best!
22:10 I really appreciate this scene a lot, the message it sends is much deeper than just drinking a cup of wine.
Apart from the bike, food might be the best method of transport out there 🙌
Hank slicing a watermelon on the side of the road has to be the happiest I've ever seen him 😂
I am a cyclist and I live on the Pennines and this was fantastic GCN. The first thing I noticed was how much you two were smiling, grinning and laughing throughout the ride. Chapeau to both of you for taking on such a challenge in February. Them bikes definitely have a gap to fill in the market for sure.
Smiles per hour, not miles per hour! 😊
I think what we've learnt here is that Hank can crash into you at high speed, Hank can crash into you at low speed, but Hank WILL crash into you
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😂😂
Time for Hank to do another fixed gear criterium.
Even the tent was not safe 😂
username checks out 😌👌
One of my favorite videos to date! This was a laugh riot from start to finish. There was plenty of informative information on the great bikes, the route, all the gear & food. I was sorry to see it end! Thanks to Si , Hank & the crew we could not see. I will want to re-watch this again many times over. Ride On Boys !!😎
We've had a GSD for the last 5 years and loved it. Watching this, I can just imagine all sorts of family adventures we could have. I love when great companies let great people just build cool stuff that they personally want to use. This looks mega!
We couldn't agree more!
That shot of Si explaining the details of the bike while Hank's in the background eating is just peak comedy 🤣 Also figured it was a Finn that came up with this thing. Cause we do be have some narly winter weather that is just a big no no for anything "standard" 😏
it's basically e-bike version of a Surly Big Fat Dummy, although Surly discontinued the "fat" version and their e-bike version is based on their Big Dummy frame which is 29 × 3, though I wonder if it can fit 26 × 4.
once again Si and Hank impress with their irrepressible good humor and willingness to take on epic challenges. They made it look easy but I bet it wasn't, especially that 35% climb! And always take a table and chairs: advice to live - comfortably outdoors - by.
The table and chairs was pure comedy
I am ill in bed at the moment and your video has properly cheered me up. Those bikes look awesome, I would definitely have one of those! Great work guys.
Get well soon!
This is the best GCN video I've seen in a while, great to see Hank and Si having fun on a mad adventure 😀
Never a dull day shooting with these two 🙌Chuck some cargo bikes in and everything is great!
Good reminder that cycling doesn’t have to equate to suffering. Almost done with my conversion of a late 80s ATB into a touring/bike packing rig. It’s a different ride than my road bike, but no less fun. So long as I’m on a bike.
That's such an important point! Cycling is not connected to suffering, the focus should always be on enjoying yourself 🙌
How many bottles of wine were in there? Funniest line in the video was Hank, doing his best Rowley Birkin impression, asserting that he wouldn’t go anywhere without a table. Great video boys. Like the bikes as well.
Bikes and Banter... what's not to like?
Best GCN video this week, for ages in fact ,such fun
Best of 2024? 🗓
@@gcn apart from the mega compilations, loved those 🤩🤩
Nice one chaps, I love bikepacking in the Peak District having grown up there. Just got back from a winter bikepacking film trip there myself!
So lucky to have the peaks so close to us. Had some epic times and some brutal climbs!
@@capturemylife yes indeed! That trip we did a couple of years ago was brilliant. Will have to do it again some time soon
Could do with that bike to carry the camera gear 😂
@@capturemylife 😂 I was thinking the same… would be ace
What a great place to grow up! 🙌 What's your favourite Peak District climb?
Tern never misses. I'm a very happy owner of their HSD (in addition to a regular touring bike), and the clever utility and sheer fun of it never cease to surprise me. This bike will bring that experience to many more people and use cases. Excellent video!
They are great bikes 🙌 Utility bikes are so much fun, It's all about the fun of cycling!
This brings to memory the epics from gcn plus with these two. Absolute joy.
Would you like to see a longer form video of this? 🎥
@GCN yes!
Si and Hank were not the only only ones with a massive smile on their faces. This video was too much fun to watch and put a massive smile on my face.
Absolutely loved this video! Si and Hank are so much fun together. The bike packing video’s are the best! Love GCN!❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
Cool! Hopefully I’ll get my hands on the Orox as well soon!
You guys just bottled pure epic fun and passed it around to us. Cheers!! And kudos from a wimpy Canadian to uou tough Brits for bike camping in that “winter”. Toughest weather ever.
Seeing the MASSIVE amount of gear both of you carried, I would really consider an e-cargo bike to run shopping errands.
Nothing better for the job! Si is a convert 👉czcams.com/video/3-Bt7LfsISw/video.html
One of the best duos in GCN roster.
Loved seeing you ride my local trails from Sheffield and into the Peaks. Looked like you had a lot of fun making that video. It was so good I watched it twice 👍
The 2 bikes have more storage capacity than a land rover sport. That’s seriously impressive!
😎
More reliable too 😉
I had no desire for an E bike before watching this, but now thinking how awesome it would be having my wife riding one as a support vehicle... I could go lighter and she could carry more than normal but have an easy/fun time while doing it.
They were so much fun!
Fantastic and hilarious video. Absolutely loved it!!!! I want that bike!
Man this bike is made for Seattle. Carry groceries on the weekdays, hit the Cascade mountains on the weekends.
Well done boys. You’ve made a wet & rainy February camping trip look like a really good time.
You don't need the sun to have a good time... just a bike 😉
Hilarious! I didn't think Hank would really bring the table! Those bikes were awesome too. Nice kids Si!! Bring them on the next adventure with Hank.
Hank is always up for the challenge! 😂
This kind of video motivates me to get out for a bike ride and to plan a little weekend adventure to live my life out of depression :)
We are proud of you bro :)
Do it! Come back tomorrow and tell us how it went.
All the best for it, you can do it!
Sending love from GCN to you 🤗
That was awesome. Made me remember the days of GCN+… make more like this.
Thanks! Would you like us to create some long form videos on the main channel? 🎥
It would be awesome if you release some like the GCN+ documentaries and adventures. That was one of the main reasons I signed up initially to GCN+.
You could do in series like zwift academy or even release some of the GCN+ documentaries here.
Great fun. Not all trips have to be about speed, KIM'S, segments, etc.
Just out riding with your mates, having fun.
Super video. I live in the Pacific Northwest of the US. Weather is very like the UK.🌧
Cheers 🌞🚴♀️🌧🖖
KOM's
Absolutely loved this. Vids like this affirm the conviction that there's just something special about rides that aren't controlled by data-driven performance i.e. speed, aerodynamics, watts per kilo, FTP etc. Too often the data hype dominates cycling content and it's nice to take a mental break from it all and just watch Si and Hank riding the modern equivalent of pack mules and laughing themselves silly on the trails. Well done, Team Glampzors, this was a real joy to watch.
My favourite GCN-presenters! So funny! Thanks mates!
How is it that GCN managed to make what is essentially a mountain bike film, better than what GMBN can?
Wow, that looked real fun - who would have thought of electric cargo bikepacking in February in the UK and camping! What else and where else could you go - it's got my adventurous brain cell working!!! I loved this - I missed GCN+...
Good Fun!! Great to see Sy and Hank have a great time!
Great video, more content like this please. Bikes and adventures for the avg person / family!! 🎉❤
This is brilliant! Serious fun!
This was an epic video! It was odd for Hank to question whether a route was safe, but then went full Hank and sent it, as one would expect
It was I missed opportunity though for Hank to bring his Gurkha knife to cut up that watermelon
Awesome. Si is so enthusiastic, it really is good to watch. Keep it up guys.
From Hank and Si playing bumper bikes to calling a watermelon Connor... Great vid gents LOL
Super fun! I need one of these bikes in my life. 186 mile range would make an epic bikepacking trip in the Rockies or a pleasant ride along the Oregon coast highway, with a stop in at Mo's for hot fresh clam chowder would be perfect.
Great video. The shot of Hank looking at the drop on the collapsed road and considering whether to 'send it'.....with a camping table and chairs on the bike...was a special moment... 😂
soi nice to see two mates out doing something so cool!
Oh goodness what fun!!!!! Thanks for great show.
This is an amazing video. Looked so much fun and all in February.
Absolutely loved this video, more of this please 👌
Love the tone of these vids, the lads were clearly having a blast and the impressions of Ollie moaning were brilliant.
One of the most entertaining buddy films I've seen in a while. You two crushed the ride! And those bikes are so freaking cool!
This is so awesome! One of these days I'll have to proper save and grab one of these to go bikepacking with my kiddo. Fantastic video really enjoyed it, Si and Hank have the most charming chemistry together.
Best adventure ride of gcn for me so far. Lovin it. Love the tandem. Pure fun.
We've got a GSD a few weeks ago and love it. Now, when Tern announced the Orox, my wife instantly wanted one of these, too. With this video, you are not making things better. :D
I think we need to save up some money ... Awesome video, guys!
Love, that, bike!!! Great film, have ridden many of those trails but looks so much fun on the tern, fat bikes are back baby!!!
This is what GCN is about. Showcasing the sheer enjoyment of cycling. One of the best videos in a while.
thanks! the guys really enjoyed it!
Outrageous!
And completely fantastic
From the people, the production values, the bikes, the music: brilliant in every way.
Mam Tor is known as the Shivering Mountain. it lies on the geological fault between the Dark Peak (gritstone) and the White Peak (limestone). Mam Tor shivered faster than they could repair the road. I remember going up it in the family Austin as a boy.
Great adventure boys - please keep them coming!
Great bit of local knowledge! We'll be back soon 🙌 Just look at all those smiles!
I think Hank got the gauntlet out for Bear Grylls there. That has got to be an adventure in the making!
This would be amazing wouldn't it
Loved watching this! Looked like you guys had such good fun AND had so much food and booze!
Si and Hank thank you for a very entertaining video. I must remember to take my table and chairs next time I am out on the bike. Keep up the great work.
I just rode one (the 14) it’s spectacular!
I love these adventure videos and really enjoyed this one (obviously nowhere as much as you enjoyed making it).
Kind of forgot this was about the bikes. Was brilliant to see two mates having a great time!
Oh my word, this video is so awesome! Surprised Connor is not present on an epic bike packing video and no winter speech from Si.. still very awesome! And Hank talking 'bout Bear Grylls, collab soon maybe? 😊😊
What a fun adventure. Great video. Those bikes certainly took a beating.
The Katy trail. That would be my ride. It is a bucket list ride for me. I have to thank you for all your video's. I have been using them to try and come back from a very serious bout of Covid a couple of years ago. I have been struggling to get back to what I could do prior to that. Tonight I used this video to ride the longest ride I have made in many months. Thank you GCN. All of you are an inspiration to me.
Hi thanks for the comment and kind words. We are so pleased we are able to help anybody ride. It's stories like yours that really let us know we are doing a wonderful thing for our fans! ❤ride on!
What a blast! Great moment, thanks for the laughs 😂
Love seeing Edale in one of these vids. Just a great place.
Great Job -- glad the plus quality is still around!
Wow, what a fun trip. I live in Sheffield in Lodge Moor and you cycled on my gravel bike routes. Sadly I don't have a motor to help me but I am only propelling myself not all your kit! Great video lads and keep up the great content, loved this.
Very good boys. That made me smile so much. Great video.😂😂
This looked like fun. Thanks for all the details re what you packed - clothes, gear, food (furniture) etc. That kind of info always makes a vid more relatable. "I could try something like that…"
"I wouldn't go anywhere without a table." 😂
Just an amazing and fun video to watch on a Saturday morning!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You guys are nuts! Great video. Great fun.
Was initially a bit sceptical of this bike but can see the point on it now. Great video 😊
Nice job and great bikes. Riding my Surly Wednesday this winter. Love the fat bikes. Take care, Al
I need that rain suit!!!
It's amazing, check it out at Agu 👉gcn.eu/AGUxGCN
My fave videos out and about love the bike packing ones x
Fantastic work lads you had us all crying with laughter, thank you 🙏
Our pleasure!
Awesome Video! Thanks fellas!
Thanks for watching!
That was awesome guys!! Looked like great fun 🤩
Great adventure video. Some of those roads and tracks brought back memories of MTB group weekends spent staying in barn conversions in that area.
This is one of the best videos you guys have made. Biking adventures👍
Kona finally! Excellent,Brilliant I have a Kona Kula one of the best bikes ever made, well there all good.
Great video dudes! I reckon you had room for a gazebo!
Brilliant vid gents. What amazing bits of kit. Glad you didn’t spoil it by telling us how much they cost. More of this please.
Sorry. I just had a quick look when i saw the comment. They do one of the models for £5.5k and the us over £8k
I love this pair they are great together.
Well done and what a laugh watching you charging the bikes !!!
You guys have the best job in the world! Imagine getting to do this for work. So funny to watch, I was grinning all the way through but not as much as you were. Actually felt like I was out there with you. Fabulous.
Thanks for the comment ♥️
Just a fantastic video - great fun!
It was brilliant watching you guys having so much fun in what i consider to be my playground! (spent 40 years in GOC (Gods own City!)) Its been a while since i've done some of those roads but really you are spoilt for choice, you picked out a few classics there. And now i want one of them bikes too!
This is fantastic!
What an adventure!
