The Hurricane Didn’t Stop Me: Bicycle Touring in Newfoundland | Cycling Across Canada, Ep. 28
This is the final video in the Cycling across Canada bicycle tour series. In this episode, I ride across the Island of Newfoundland. I arrive just before Hurricane/Tropical Storm Fiona hit the island, causing considerable damage in Port Aux Basques. As I ride across, I encounter unimaginable generosity and kindness. My arrival in St. John's leaves me emotional, as I marvel at the incredible milestone of riding solo, over 8300 km, across the beautiful country of Canada.

    It looks like crap beam pattern imo But maybe you had it aimed too low? Since amazon has a free return, i may try it on the single track spot i test all tne lights i receive.

    • @WheelsonaBike
      @WheelsonaBike День тому

      I've been using this light consistently and it's the brightest one I own. I'm not sure about the beam pattern reference, but usability wise, the light is solid.

      @@WheelsonaBike I seen a beam shot of it on Reddit and it had me intrigued . Your shot of it looked different. I typically buy , test and compare beam shots myself.. Ask for a good beam pattern Wider the better More width requires more lumens to compensate. It needs adequate throw , but again.. more the better fit for high speed situations. Beam should be diffused with no artifacts (black matter within beam)!and shouldn't have a hot spot Majority of beams are round with a centered hot spot, creating tunnel vision ( no peripheral illumination) and eye fatigue Sadly the kelvin range/hue is wrong on most lights too with a low CRI

    I paused the video to just say one thing. The love and generosity I have received from every Canadian, be it in Vancouver, Jasper, Canmore, Hope, Banff, Whistler and everywhere else I went last year for 6 weeks cannot be put in words. I say this again and again and again. And although Eddy’s expressed love and generosity to you during your trip in 2022, I felt the same emotions that overwhelmed me, when I was at the receiving end of similar expressions. Through this comment I wish to thank everyone whom I met and interacted with during my stay in Alberta and B.C. Will forever be grateful to them all. May they all be blessed. Agneiszka, I am following your channel since you did the cross Canada tour. Your videos helped me plan so much of my trip. A very personal thank you. Atb, That Travelling Guy….

      Thank you for sharing your experience. This is so important to acknowledge as the media would have us think that people are unkind and fear inducing.

I'm glad you had a positive experience in Canada!

Right? He loves riding in front of grandpa on the bike. And he just points at what he sees. So much fun! Helmets? No, we don't do that here :-) Helmets are for the elderly (who wear such a thing a few times then realize it's nonsense) and tourists :-)
