Hey GUY and Lady if you are truth tourist you have no right demonized country so be fair or you have to play fair And do not abuse or Over abuse you have to talking about beauty of the IRAN NOTING more Otherwise you will be under sanction for 45 years Exactly the same stupid mullahs authorities in the jomhoriayh islami System

This channel is amazing, it is real cycling/travelling/life adventure.

With that mustache, Turkish people would definitely think you are hardcore Turkish nationalist. Just sayin'

Ìch liebe euch

Welcome to iran I love you guys

After avoiding hills all the way to Türkiye I was thinking it was going to be a shock, but at least you had "warmed up" through Europe. Then the illness and the forced break, and straight into the big hills and heat. Ah well, training for Asia - slowly catching up to the current vids - cheers for sharing.

What coincidence in life, i saw this same highway on another favourite youtube motorcyclist wildlens by abrar, obviously the same hostel. I happened to meet a taiwanese traveller in Spiti valley, India who had just came from those same places. Keep living and travelling. ❤

Well I’m glad you went and made this video, now we’ve seen it, I’m not impressed with UAE. Thank you very much.

Amazing again 😊 May I know the bike brand you are using and tire width?

If i ever can afford it i'd love to go to Iran! Lucky people.

Sehr fesselndes Video ! Zum Glück ist Alles gut gegangen. Besonders die Hintergrundmusik hat die ganze Stimmung nochmal potenziert. Hut ab vor Arevs Stärke. Danke Euch und schöne Grüße aus Hannover

Are you alive?

I don't think you've spend enough time in Turkey to assess the situation. I'm Turkish and every now and then I hear professional cyclists getting run over by drivers. Turkish drivers are bad and have no respect for cyclist. They don't see bicycles as equals only a nuisance, they refuse to give space or honk impatiently when they can't overtake them due to incoming traffic. We don't design bike friendly cities and our highways are dangerous for many bikers. Stray dogs come together and become gangs between towns are a real problem cyclists too.

1/3rd of the way through the current AWBT playlist and enjoying the travels, and the widening of your comfort zone. I knew when I started watching you were very far East so its nice to watch you settling into this new lifestyle and its challenges.

First time viewer, was able to pin point the pass on GE and all its details, what an amazing, rugged part of the world you are in. Exploring it on GE when it first came out was thrilling, now in my old age to be able to tag along on various YT channels is an adventure I never dreamed of in my younger days. Subscribed and best wishes.

Best vid yet!

Great choice of Persian music

Your adventure is wonderful

How about this for an observation. Watching this video and your videos from Turkey , I begin to wonder if men are just more prone to being sick. Genetically speaking women are the stronger sex so maybe Arev is just less likely to get sick. I know in your videos we only have a sample of two, but hey it’s a longitudinal study here that just happens to have a small n. Having now googled the question if women get sick less than men, the answer seems more complex requiring more detailed questions. So maybe.

Vielen Dank für dieses großartige Reisevideo! Es ist beeindruckend, wie schön die Eindrücke eingefangen wurden. Und ein besonderes Lob für die Musik von Daler Nazar - sie passt perfekt und verleiht dem Ganzen eine besondere Atmosphäre. Weiter so, ich freue mich auf mehr! 🌟

Epic, chapeau.

safe cycle

nice journey, I wish one day I will cycle at Pamir Highway.

Iran/Persia is a beautiful country with lots of historical sites, museums and nature. This was a great video, keep up the good work!

Wonderful, Thank you!

Nice Walk thru Georgia. Very peaceful and pastoral views.

The downhill section of the Anzob pass reminded me of one of your first videos, descending a dirt trail in the south of France - what a difference in terms of your confidence and skill! Really do love your videos, and your story telling.

Excellent guys. 💯We just came across your channel and are looking forward to your next instalments. Safe travels, Kurt and Darina 🚴🗺🚴

Wow how do you make your map animations?

This is such a fantastic video. It holds so much emotions. your (mental) strength is astonishing 😮 And you never pass on the fact that the local people are great humans and with that making sure that your viewers get their fate in humanity (back). And enjoying the surrounding while following your adventures 😅 Glad to see you made it through another hard and challenging episode! Again, stay healthy and stay safe!❤ See you on PayPall😉

Great Episode! ❤

The most beautiful channels for bicycle trips, beautiful photography, adding food to the videos, the problems you face on the trip, and people’s feelings and talking to them. Greetings to you from Saudi Arabia and we hope to see you here

Well done, glad you're feeling great again. Wishing you more tarmac and less traffic 😂

Iranian people seem so nice and welcoming!

Glad to see you overcame that small crisis together <3

It was hard to see the sufferings, i did feel myself about the same. Maybe i say a something obvious, but hope someone consider the importance of my advice: as you getting feel really sick like Mathias - lose the height as fast as possible you can, AND DON'T STAY at high altitude to recover! that was a their great mistake! just roll down and recover at lower point! That was a unnecessary challenge with his physical conditions. Oh man, manschmal musst nur eigenes kopf und korper horen :) Good luck on the way and be safe!

It's fascinating to see the reality of life in Iran, due to my passport I'm unlikely to be able to visit any time soon. I've Iranian friends who tell me about the legendary hospitality, it looks like you have been experiencing this! Thanks for sharing your trip so far

Thanks for sharing this part of your journey together. Your honesty about the complexities of travelling like this is great.

A very personal and touching video. Thank you for only brining out the postives in Turkey and the part about the Armenian Genocide had the most humble approach as possible. All that while there was a recent ethnic cleansing of Armenians from Nagarno-Karabakh/Artsakh, which shows the value of your character. There is a minority, in the millions, in Turkey who will know the value of both of your character and appreciate your actions. Thank you for sharing your story with us. If people don't see its' value today, they will in the years or decades to come. While Erdogan is regarded as an icon of evil in the West (and Turkey), you have to remember that we were only able to talk about the Armenian Genocide in Turkey during his term. Erdogan still sends every year a letter to the Patrichate in Istanbul where he offers his condolonces for the victims of 1915 genocide (albeit it's not called a genocide but a tragedy). Nothing is black or white. Although he has destroyed the rule of law, economy and everything else, people are able to write research and publish books about the Armenian Genocide in Turkish universities as of 2024. However, as the economy has gone to the worse, as has politicization in Turkey increased. This has lead to the extreme difficulity to talk about the genocide. The content produced by the state, and even on the internet, is overtly denialist, which has lead to a very skewed perception on the genocide. It's very hard to talk about the topic in the open without suffering reprucussions socially and economically. While the reactions you might get on this video on the present date might not be the best, I have no doubt that with time Turkish-Armenian relations will heal, the main obstacle has been the Nagarno-Karabakh/Artsakh issue. If the countries are not in a violent conflict, it will then be easier for people in Turkey to talk about the issue. For Turks reading this comment, I recommend a very small book written in Turkish in 1921 by a Catholic Armenian (who by official histography were exempt from the deporation orders) who was in the middle of the genocide. The book's name is Ankara Vukuati - Menfilik Hatiralarim from Aras Yayincilik.

Amazing content! keep it up, love from persia ❤ Many mosques in Iran were originally Zoroastrian fire temples or Zoroastrian places of worship. Unfortunately, after the Arab invasion of Iran, they were converted into Islamic mosques. Many people in Iran, especially the younger generation, choose their religion of their own free will, as Cyrus the Great pointed out in his statement that everyone is free to choose their religion.

Brilliant videos, inspirational, this is travelling par excellence

Your videos are getting better and better! Just out of curiosity - did you leave any money to host? Safe journey ❤

You are insane 😂

You can see everything you've done since that second video. You're proof that even if you're not a professional cyclist, you can do it, with a lot of willpower ! Can youb imagine all the way you have done ??? It's amazing !!! 🤗
