Watching this while sewing my bike bags for my first adventure. Thank you for inspiring and sharing a more realistic perspective on your solo travels! It's not something a lot of people do....
I admire your bravery in choosing campsites. I go by beautiful spots like that one with the picnic tables and am too afraid of getting made to leave by the police or whatever. But then I've pitched my tent in very visible spots (when I've had permission) and as soon as it gets even a little dark my dark gray tent is invisible right in from of me. I should be bolder like you!!!
I don't know how the inexperienced will react to this video, but as a cyclist myself with loads of experience on the byways of Southern Europe, it all seems very real and relatable to me. Cemetery water, headwinds, truck backwash, a little stream to wash in at the end of a hard day of riding! There's a saying about fishing that a bad day of fishing always is better than a good day at the office. I don't know if that's true, but I do know that a bad day of bicycle touring is always preferred to any day doing almost anything else. Keep doing Cheerio. And keep posting. Some of us depend on your good humor in the face of hardship.. I really don't know why, but it's so.
I will use this sentence as a mantra. " A bad day of cycling is better than a good day in the office". But tbh sometimes I wish I could just sit in an office for a day:D
Can't stop watching your biking adventures. They way you edit your video and add dynamic audio clips to keep our attention is an inspiration and education. Keep up the outstanding work while I go looking for the donate button. Cheers!
Great video as always !! Hint - most garden hoses will leech a plastic/pvc taste into the water. Best to remove and bypass the hose. Food grade hoses that are used in boats/campers/RV's use different hose liner materials.
Je regarde maintenant plusieurs de vos vidéos et j’adore, je fais aussi beaucoup de vélo et j’admire ce que vous faites, grand bravo pour vos voyages et en plus vous êtes très sympathique et agréable ! 👍🙏😀
Moin together, Jesus, I know this selfpunishment when things go south, puh… I feel you there and I think you do so great, really. So many people including me appreciate very much what you do since you do the very best you can all the time. So thanks again!
I'm watching this laying on my couch, eating some fruits thinking of this situation, how comfy i'm and how physically hard moments you are having. But i wish to change places, there will be do nice to go like this, knowing how beatifully it is and challenging same time. You are lucky with this, You know.. Enjoy it and go to Granada 😉👍
Hiya GC, lovely to see and hear you in such a good space mentally. You sound as if your really well and enjoying life. So pleased for you and loving the episodes. Thank you! Stay safe.
Always enjoy watch your video's and I appreciate your honesty and openness. As for the cold mornings, Sounds like northern Australia might be calling you.
that was simply wonderful and so inspiring. I'm also so impressed how strong you are, once I rode my bike from Aachen to Brussels for 130 in one day and killed myself😁
Great vid loving the route. deffo subscribed to enjoy more of your adventures life long cyclist thanking the weather gods for some great weather here in the UK :)
I now use a CRANKTANK ( Australian company ) it carries 3lt or there is a 4lt version and fits in your frame triangle nice and low down. The thing I use always is a filter in a rubber plastic type crushable bottle and I am trying HYDROPAK filter and the same companies bottle. [ so I could carry around 7 ltrs ] this is far too much but the big bottle let’s me filter a big amount of water into the CRANKTANK Even from taps I filter just incase the change of water in different regions gives me a bug ( very low risk from a tap or fountain ). All the water gets filtered just incase as I don’t want a upset stomach at all.
Hey! Thanks a lot for the videos you make, you inspired me a lot. I would like to know what tipe of bicycle you have? How expensive is it? I would love to go for the same type of adventure that you are doing and I'm thinking of which equipment I will choose. Thanks a lot for your help 😊
Ne großartige Leistung, die du da ablieferst und filmst👍. Danke. Bin selbst Radfahrer. Mit dem ganzen Gepäck ist man leider auch ein mobiler Windfang😑. Ich nehm dann etwas Tempo raus, um nicht meine Kraft und Laune zu verschwenden, indem ich dagegen ankämpfe. Stell dir doch einen Wecker/Timer, um dich ans Essen und Trinken bzw. nachfüllen zu erinnern. Nur so ein Tipp. Viel Spaß und weiter so. Gruß Dominik
@@giantcheerio Es geht ja lediglich darum, es dir in Erinnerung zu rufen😉. Ich kenne, dass es unterwegs nicht immer was in der Nähe gibt. Probier es einfach aus, denn schlimmstenfalls stehst du an dem Punkt, an welchem du jetzt stehst. Danke für die Reaktion, viel Spaß weiterhin. Bin gespannt was dich noch erwartet. Gruß Dominik
I saw u r in Greece atm, try to go to rhodope mountains or nestos river , it s beautiful ! And it s worth it biking through Balkans as well Good luck 🤞🏼
11:30 - “i enjoy where i am without actually knowing where i am at” brilliant philosophy 😊
🙏😊
I love my morning coffee !

You know what I like about you, you are real. You are so honest about bike travel. It is refreshing.😊😊😊
You've become an inspiration to most of us
I lived in Andalusia as a boy back in the 1970s. It brings back so many fond memories! Thank you!

Great content…beautiful scenery!!
You are truly amazing. Good luck and thank you for the video.
I love the way you avoid getting noticed by the general public. You fill your water bottles unnoticed amazing tops to remain safe! ❤️
Always nice to see one of you videos, always honest and real life. Thanks for sharing your travels!
Great video, can´t wait to see Andalucia myself

Du kannst Gebissreiniger Tabs zur Reinigung der Plastikflaschen verwenden 😊
Mach ich auch immer! 🙌

And that water has sat there in the sun, open at one end of the hosepipe...... Straight out the tap for the win.
Nice to know you are safely traveling with two men In Greece now.
Used to live in between Málaga and Granada perfect area for cycling/bike packing and Ardales is just beautiful 👌🏻 love the channel

Excellent . Thank you for taking the time to do these videos.

It's the ridiculous details like the face scrub bread that often make longer-lasting memories than names of places! That was hilarious xD
Thanks, yet another great video! Stay safe.

That tasty facescrub bread...
Somehow it still tastes better than the normal one at home.
12:52 🤣😅😆😁😂
You should change the channels name to giant BAD MOOD Cheerios 😅
I love your videos ❤
Just a tip, you can use dental cleaning tabs from the pharmacy to clean out your waterbag. Does leave a minthy taste 🫣
Great idea!! I'll definitely try that!

First commenter 🙌🚴 take care Cheerio 🙂

Ja, Wind ist tatsächlich manchmal der Endgegner! Wecker stellen um nachzufüllen wird nicht funktionieren. Manchmal gibt's halt einfach nichts

Someone who was smarter than me once said "when you find yourself going through hell DON'T STOP!". I see you've learned that lesson already, lol.
:D
Uk
Yo🚴♀️
👌👍
hi cheerio nice vidéo, you complain about cold but are you not efraid about the hot summer season that is coming?
I am more than afraid:D
🚴❤️
How did you charge your battery for your smar phone and recording device?
Hallo, ich mag Ihre Videos sehr! Danke! Ich kann leider den SuperThanks Button nicht finden…..
Which one is your county ?
I am from Germany:)
do you use an app to find info on where to find water?
No I usually search for cemeteries or fountains on google maps
Pretty cool. Okay, Badelatschen mit Socken sind zwar ziemlich sexy, aber warum keine Sandalen z.B.? 😅
Die meisten Sandalen sind nicht 100% wetterbeständig und da ich auch im Regen mit Adiletten fahre, müssen die ais Plastik sein!😃
🇧🇷🚴👍
Hi Ms gc. Your bike, bags and equipment seems to have evolved cf 12months past an update would be great.
Cheers pc
I am just about to do a set up video!😃
I had blobs of green algae growing inside my water bottle. I put a shot of whiskey in the bottle for 24 hours which killed the algae.
Hahaha and then you drunk the cocktail!!😂😂
@@franmendez2441 no way. I just gave it a good rinse
Hi Chirio... Can i ask what you 4l shower bag is called 🕺
It is an Ortlieb water bag. Available in 4 and 10 L
Where did you get your beautiful helmet? I have searched all over the internet)))
It is the uvex rise in sand black
@@giantcheerio I understood the name, I can’t find it for sale)) Sites or shops))
I ❤ u
Take your necklace and swirl it around your water bottles with a little water to Keep them crud free. Don't drink your necklace 😷
Something tells me your a virgo
I saw u r in Greece atm, try to go to rhodope mountains or nestos river , it s beautiful ! And it s worth it biking through Balkans as well
Good luck 🤞🏼
