Having spent many days and nights in Southern Baja and now living full time in Bucerias Nayarit not far from Puerto Vallarta, I too can confirm that the majority of Mexico is filled to the brim with the friendliest people you could ever meet!
Love your videos Ryan, thank you for sharing! I'm Canadian but I live in Oaxaca now, close to the Arbor del Tule, it was surreal to watch you cruise through Jalatlaco and Tule on the bikes, I would have fallen over in shock if I ran into you in the streets lol. And yes you were correct, that old bike path in the middle of 2 streets used to be a rail line way back when. Safe travels brother and pass on my love to John and Mira
No way!! That would have been awesome to meet you. I hope to go back sometime, maybe I'll see you then. Enjoy Oaxaca!!
Ryan, thank you so much for posting some of these trips in extended form without all the music and other stuff. I find the natural sounds so therapeutic when recovering from a stressful day! I can’t express my gratitude enough for these special cuts. You are a kind soul!
Oh wow, thank you so much for the kind words. I like making these versions as well...such a different vibe.
I agree I love the natural sounds😊
There are snippets of John talking throughout this that make me wonder what the non-recorded conversations and energy are like. Whenever those snippets occur the energy is much lower than the excitement that you show the camera. I doubt anyone can be energetic 100% of the time, so it's those low key moments that those snippets allude to that I find interesting. Great video as usual.
We’re very different, but still close friends. He doesn’t feel the need to match my exuberance, he’s just a bit more chill ;)
Was missing John & Mira already and this video is delivered :)
Lots of Cute Mira moments in this video!
Yeessss!! 😊
Ryan and John are men to aspire to just because of their dedication. their friendship, and them shari g their lives with us. They also show it
's never about being flashy, having debates about gear, and instead, it's about the experience if we're willing to branch out. Besides, I have said this about Ryan before, that I am sure he would drop half the field in the Tour if he wanted to. Anyone who can ride those hills with 65 pounds gets my respect. Mira is the model we should live our lives by, friendly, protective, free, and just a sweetie...I almost lost my life three years ago, and when I was in the hospital and confined home, it was inspirational people that kept me understanding i would walk, skate,and ride again,with hard work...
Oh wow, you've had quite the journey in the past 3 years. Congratulations on overcoming the tough times. I really appreciate your comment, it makes me heart happy. I wish you all the best on your recovery and beyond!! You are awesome
@@duzer thank you,and keep up the great work...
Pleased to meet John and Mira at this past Thursdays cruiser ride. Of course my cat Hitcher and Mira weren't too pleased with each other😺😺😺😺
Haha, Mira can be funny around other animals
I hope that you enjoy the sounds of nature in this extended cut of our Oaxaca adventure. And Mira, lots of Mira! Here's the entire series if you wanna see each day in more detail: ua-cam.com/play/PLQntYl1jtMXuNGpQeiHMLirSQGEUq_nrq.html
all the sounds were really relaxing. I really enjoyed this video this is my first time seeing something like it. I also enjoyed that compared to media like documentaries there wasn't added effects. the viewer gets a real feel like we're there.
Well Ryan, its been busy here, we are fostering a pair of puppies but I found the time to make a huge plate of beans for dinner and watch this extended cut. Love it, love you guys, I would love so much to ride Oaxaca as it looks amazing, I can really feel your 3 way friendship, heartwarming dude. Mira is so un reactive to other dogs, she’s one of kind. All best from Western Canada Duzer!
Wow, that was so nice! Appreciation for what is simple, kind, beautiful. Gratitude for another day to enjoy, another opportunity to be kind. As more people do this, I can see some light in the middle of the darkness. You shine a light amigo, and no one can do better than that! Thanks for sharing your adventures, your joy and gratitude, the beautiful people and places you encounter along the way, and so much more. Keep shining a light, amigo! Saludos y abrazos 🙂
Thank you, my friend! I love how you look at life...with lots of love and kindness!
@@duzer I am working on being a better person. It helps to have good examples! 🙂
What an incredible journey. I got to see a Mexico I did not know existed. The mountains are spectacular and the people....omg.....such wonderful people. Many live such a simple but wonderful lifestyle. I wonder if they understand how fortunate they are to not be caught up in the madness of wantism. I know there is abject poverty, but so many live rich lives. Not all wealth is gold.
It makes me happy to hear you two breathing hard while climbing those hills. I always thought you looked like you weren't even working hard and that I would never achieve that level of fitness. So I guess what I am trying to say in I have decided you are human after all. Love this video❤
haha, yep! Those hills made us breathe VERY HARD!! STEEP STEEP!! Hope you're having a nice summer
I'm a bit amazed that Mira doesn't get hit by that rolling front tire!
Thanks for taking us along!
She’s a ninja!
See you two together soon! Mira as well!
Ryan Van Duzer, Your videos are amazing, Thank you for posting them for everyone to watch. I love you, Man.
Thank you so much!!!
We love Ryan, John and Mara videos!! ❤
Thank you so much!
I watched that with a big smile on my face all the way through😁Loved the extended version Ryan, more Mira to enjoy😁
Glad to hear that you enjoyed this!! I made sure to add in lots of fun Mira moments
Love the post! So peaceful and shows the beauty of the country and the people- thank you guys!
This one is SO great. Bikes, food, doggos, beautiful, beautiful Mexico!
Thanks!! This was one of the best, that's for sure
Food, yeah, if you like beans 🫘
Such a joy to see a couple of white dudes riding in and around Oaxaca while eating the infamous Oaxacan food. Ryan, the expression on your face that tells the world: "Look at us! there's nowhere else we'd rather be" And then there's the language. That you two bothered to learn Spanish tells me you are passionate about Mexico. I am a Mexican national now living in the States. I do use my mountain bike from time to time but nothing like you guys do here; I find it inspiring. Thanks for the wonderful hour.
Me encanta tu país!! Thank you for watching our adventure. You might like my Baja series
When my parrot starts singing "Ole, ole ole ole!" along with you, I think maybe I have been watching a little too much Duzer TV. Thumbs up from Gandalf the African grey though.
Gandalf is my new hero!!! Give that guy an extra treat from me
I really enjoy you adventures....I'd welcome you to Kenya, we really have amazing tracks here ...and bring them special bikes ,..thank you
Maybe one day!
Ame este video como no tienes idea, Ryan!!
Que Dios los siga cuidando a los 3 a donde quiera que vallan!!
Mi lindo y hermoso Oaxaca 🥹
Tu tierra is increíble
@duzer next time you go to Oaxaca, you need to try the mole 😋 maybe you did already and it's a bit too spicy 😄
Love the way you bless others Bro! You, John and Mira keeps me motivated to keep moving forward! I told you a while back my friend watching you and John I got back into Cycling after a Long hyatis after my Marine Corps injuries! One Love, Many Blessings and No Whammy, No Crashies, and NOOOO FLATTIES!!! Semper Fi , Can Do and 1*SRT/ TAC
Once again, lovely filming and awesome countryside. I loved the soundtrack with genuine sounds from your journey. The videos with John and Mira are your BEST. Such a wonderful vibe. Thank you.
Thank you, Bruce!
Beautiful ride, the two guys and la perra ❤ filmed was amazing and also i like so much cause has music, the editing was amazing too. Mexico 🇲🇽 los ama queremos más extranjeros como ustedes
Viva Oaxaca, viva Mexico!!
Hell yeah this would be the format I love for a bike video just pure bike life !! Great video and this was a great series too
Yep, it’s all about the bike in this one!
I can’t believe Mira got that advanced copy of Apple’s new Vision Pro VR goggles. She’ll obviously be an amazing beta tester.
Haha!! She’s very up to date with new tech
This guy has so much fun! I'm jealous.....
These long cuts with natural sounds are the absolute best! Thank you Ryan!!
Glad you like them!
My daughter and I have just discovered your channel and now we are hooked! We just started bike riding and you are our idol lol
Yay!!! Welcome to my channel. I wish you two all the best on your adventures
I enjoyed this extended cut!
dude you deserve more subscribers.. this channel is full of positive vibes. more power to you and your channel.
What an adventure 😊. Hi john hi mira 👋
Yes it was! Mira says hello
Loved it thank you. Did my trainer miles to it and will all week.
Right on!! These long vids are made for trainers!
Loved this trip the first time.
It's even better the second time :)
Wow, Great video and trip. I have had my eye on Oaxaca and mountain biking the Ixtepeji trails in this area. So glad to see this video and hope to visit myself.
I want to go back and do more MTB!
I just received my new priority bike this past week because of your videos, love it! Thanks Ryan!
That's awesome!! I wish you all the best on your new adventure machine!!
This must be the happiest dog ever😊
True motivation
This second view of your Oaxaca adventure was just as enjoyable as your first one. Mira la perra is a great ambassador for bike packing. Her shirt might read “Fueled by Love” on the front.
She is indeed fueled by love!!
Thank you so much Ryan for showing Oaxaca, I would love to take in those epic adventures just like you. You should review the PRIORITY 600HXT when it comes out. Saludos desde Las Fabulosa Las Vegas, Nevada 🌞🌞🌞🌞
I will definitely review that bike when it comes out!
Very cool video!
Thank you very much!
Always love the natural sound versions!
Do you know if they cook their beans with lard? That was a problem for me back in the 90’s.
either that or vegetable oil
Do John and Mira do bike packing for a living??? They seem to always be on long biking trips?? Wish I could do that.
I was in Mexico through most of the "pandemic", thanks Mexico for taking the rational stand and respect our civil liberty.
Keep at it, man!
WOW!! Thank you so much for your generosity!!
@@duzer thank YOU! The videos are so inspiring! Warm fuzzy feelings!
And Ryan I get a chance to get the Boulder Colorado me and you have got to go for a ride
I rewatched this for the third time, I miss Mira , it’s always a feel good video to watch every four or five months, I can’t wait for you to ride with Mira again 😊
I miss her too
John's bike have the pinion gear box
I love this! I was wondering if you ride your bike all the way to Mexico or do you fly with it there then bike once you get there? Or how do you normally do your bike tours?
36:21
i would live there
That 20% grade going up that hill reminds me of Doi Suthep in Chang Mai, did you ever ride that mountain?
I haven't, but that grade is too much :)
You could do it on a bicycle with no camping gear
This might be a stupid question but what kind of sunglasses are you wearing. Or what kind do you recommend.
What size tires are you and John riding on? More curious about the width and how it works vs something much wider like 4"+. Im curious how my Cutthroat with 29x2.2 will handle ground like this, loose sand. Im planning Los Angeles to Joshua Tree
Hey ryan I got a 25 million dollar question what kind of bike does John amera ride? I've never seen. I'm any videos or interviews with John amira's bike.
Love your vid’s Ryan and enjoyed meeting you in person in Seattle. Have you done a review on the Aeroe Spider rack? I’m looking to get one but would like to hear your thoughts or see a video review if you’ve not done one yet. Cheers NCNFNW!
I haven't done a review on that rack...but I definitely like it. Reach out to them and tell them that you saw their rack in my videos and they'll probably give you a little discount.
Coming to you from BC, really enjoying all your videos, Ryan. Just one question, do John and Mira use an extended bike frame or is Mira's rack underneath just extended?
John is on an extended frame to accommodate her basket
Saludos de nuevo que bueno que regresaste a Mexico una abrazo para ustedes dos y mía la perra
VIVA MEXICO!!
Does John and Mira have a UA-cam channel?
Are you still with Amelia?
Why did I get soo attached to Mira? 🥹😭 I cried a little when ya'll went your separate ways 🫶
Because she’s AMAZING!!
How is the gearing of John's bike matched to his tire sizes?
What month did you do this ride?
Are thoses doggy shoes Mira is wearing at 1:36? Where can I get them?
I'm not sure exactly, try googling it
What brand is that yellow mattress?
Thermarest
Thanks for sharing your video Ryan ...❤
And John always has a sexy voice...❤
Man I want to do these things, travel by my bike, so much but with age and many bad encounters with dogs in my youth I got some sort of Cynophobia. I even afraid to pet good friendly dogs! And I just terrified when dogs start barking at me, I can start crying even. And I live in Russia, and the situation with stray dogs and mainly with the dogs here is like in Mexico based on these videos of yours.
Me and my wife want to move to the Netherlands, mainly because we afraid for our lives here because of all the events and politics, but also I think it would be better in terms of dogs problem. But it is so hard to migrate when you are not a wealthy man, I just don't even know if we can do this. Is there someone in the Netherlands who needs a Laravel developer? :D Huh, I don't think so but worth asking anyway, there are a lot of kind people out there in the World.
So, as I was saying, I really want to travel by my bike. And I do a couple of one-nighters in a year, but only when someone is agreed to ride with me (and usually people don't want to ride more than two days, and it's hard to find people that love to ride far away and sleep in a tent). I would love to travel by myself, to go for a week, but as soon as I imagine those dogs -- I understand that I just can't. I'm afraid that a pack of stray dogs will bite me or worse.
Perhaps your future videos should look and sound more like this one, maybe even easier for you to edit and post.
I've been pondering this for a long time...
@@duzer I bet a highlight video of Mira stuff would get you tons of views, she is just such a character.
Luckiest dog in the world!
She sure is...and we're lucky to ride with her
I have to ask the question. With the amout of times that you and John ride together, we see Mira bouncing around in front of John's front wheel. Has he ever ran her over?
He hasn’t…Mira is too quick ;)
12:34 I am almost 99% sure the ladies on the background are Jehova’s witnesses going to the service, home to home preaching.
Interesting
Glad to see you finally found your soulmates John and Mira so beautiful to watch you ride together. Be well be safe sir. SJ Sending my love and prayers always for you and family and friends. SJ
Image you didn’t like beans 🫘, you might starve
haha, that is a FACT!
Does Ryan buy a 600x for everyone he rides with 👍great adventure there's no substitute for a physical challenge 🦵
John is on a custom titanium bike
Mira was like WHAT? I don’t bark Spanish 😂🐶🐕🦮🐩🐕🦺🐾🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha
