    Wonderful. I enjoyed watching the riders; enjoyed the silly dog ears, and hearing the joy the ladies felt.
    I'm pleased they didn't minimize their discomfort and fear. Some drivers are jerks. And then there are the 6-10 inch road shoulders.
    They prepped well, listened to each other and did great. 🚲
    Nice episode, Oregon Field Guide! Nice ride, ladies and pup!🚵🚴

    Really enjoyed watching. Congrats to both of them. This also makes it clear that we, as a country, need to invest in more and safer infrastructure for cyclists and walkers and runners. We can and should do better. Not only would it make it safer for cyclists but it would encourage more people to leave their cars at home and ride a bike or take a walk. Thank you for this video.

    The intimacy with the environment while riding a bike is both exhilarating and refreshing at the same time.

    This woman felt so unsafe that she wanted to stop riding. This just highlights how our car-centric culture has failed us. Hopefully we can do better in the years and decades to come. Thanks for the video.

      Adding lanes for light traffic should be a priority. Sure it costs some money but if every place is reachable by walking or with a bike people will use those methods a lot and then you save on environmental damage and healthcare costs on the other side of the equation (plus you will live in a lot better place).

    Lovely video! It caught my eye due to the little dog as my own little dog absolutely loves riding in the front basket and leaving home on the bike without her now is unthinkable. Glad you got all the way to the coast even if some of those drivers were thoughtless, a great little adventure :)

    Great story and super relatable for those who enjoy travel by bike! I like the contrast between on road/off road touring. Experiences like what they had on the road are definitely what pushed me into doing more off road travel.

  • @powersportsgymkraftsportst2718

    at 9:15 you can see the cars pulling out. In Germany, they would drive extra close to the right-hand side of the road to show cyclists that they are undesirable. I think the Americans are simply more tolerant and I'm happy to see that.

    could really do without the dog: it ads nothing to the story of these two lovely ladies and all it is is an abused dog; short little legs walking after bikes at velocity. dog lovers have no shame, polluting nature with their dogs. LNT; leave the dog at the pound.
