A JOURNEY BEYOND II (Full Length Documentary)

- Back in 2014, our friend Marc Maurer started in our hometown of Cologne, Germany, and rode all the way to Istanbul, Turkey. Upon arriving, he cancelled his return flight and decided to pedal back home. Marc has always been a dedicated cyclist and an outdoor adventure addict, and he discovered an entirely new passion by combining the two. Since that first trip, he’s been obsessed with experiencing the world by bike.
Inspired by the freewheeling spirit of the late Kyle Dempster, Marc opts for a style of travel in which the route becomes the destination, rather than meticulously planning his tracks ahead of time. He prefers to ride in an unhurried fashion, enjoying all of the moments along the way.
Though he’d originally intended to continue riding from where his previous trip had ended in Iran (that time starting in Istanbul), his interests instead led him to Central Asia for “A Journey Beyond II.” In 2017, he flew to Dushanbe, Tajikistan, and cycled a meandering path to the northeast toward Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, riding dirt roads through vast swaths of both countries along the way.
During our process of producing this new documentary about his trip, we too came to realize that the numbers are secondary. The number of kilometers pedaled, meters climbed, weights of gear, and precision of coordinates aren’t nearly as important as the experiences Marc had along the way. So, we opted to create a film that reflects Marc’s guiding philosophy: Let it flow!

Hello from "It's a Good Trip "
It' a good trip. Hello guys )))
Every time I see a ride like this it blows my mind. I can't imagine what that must be like. I hope I can grow a pair someday and embark on something even resembling this epic. My local rides have become zombie rides in their monotony. Blech!

Could someone take Marc's incredible smile and attitude in the face of so many hardships during this trip and put it in a bottle and send it to me. Wow! I love his spirit, how he is able to see the positive when times get tough.

Super Video, Schöne Tour in einer herrlichen Landschaft. Danke fürs mitnehmen auf der emotionalen Achterbahnfahrt. Ich habe zwar noch nicht solche Touren gemacht,, kann aber doch das Gefühl nachvollziehen, zu realisieren in dem Moment am richtigen Fleck zu sein und sich einfach nur lebendig zu fühlen, trotz aller Anstrengung oder gerade deshalb.

Hi guys, I'm from CZcams channel «It's a good trip». And I see you have nice video... very nice!
I did the same route by car. To do it by bike is just incredible! The altitude can make you just give up and lie down. Got really sick up there myself, but I had the safety of a car. Kudos to you! What an achievement 🎉🤩
Not that it makes it much easier or less stunning, but based on some camera shots, he also had a support team / person with car. Or?
Awesome video. Great soundtrack! Respect to you dude.
