Still one wheel per person!
I had exactly the same thoughts...
Me too haha
Genius
This had never even occurred to me until seeing a similar comment about a year ago. That's after 29 years of tandeming together AND learning to unicycle seven years ago. Ha, ha! Perfect! Especially for Ed.
Tandem unicycle? Half a wheel per person. :p
I feel like that unicycle should be in a museum!
Yes, I agree... as a NFT project!
Agreed!
@TitaMcdo & Bob dont self promo on other peoples channels, its a bit cringe and also slightly rude.
@@KristianH1986 "a bit" and "slightly" are an understatement. Its just plain rude spamming.
@@chriszanf im finding every one of this guys spam and reporting. i am also dislikeing his video and explaining why. he has been reply spaming nerly every post here, and on other adventurers vids. feel free to join me
My 98 year old father, born in the UK, is thoroughly enjoying this series as he and my mother cycled tandem, towing a trailer, across Canada in 1953 on their honeymoon!
wow that's sounds so cool, thank you for sharing this
Currently I'm 16. Every summer i make bicycle trips to foreign countries all alone with a tent and cooking gear. Last year i went from Holland to France (400km) and the other year from south to north Holland (250km) it's slot of fun
Wow well done! That’s impressive!
Seeing your unicycle like that is a bit sad. Your trip around the world was such a huge inspiration for me
no worries, uni also needs some rest between projects
Plz help me 😭😭🙏🙏
A part of The unicycle lives on
Looks to be another absolute banger of a series!
This, is an early Christmas present for all !
Fantastic scenery, editing, and beautiful couple!
Lovely to hear :)
@@EdPratt right back at ya !
‘til next time…. health is wealth
(good to see your parents again!)
I love that you found your partner in Kazakhstan on your journey! How awesome!
Ed, she's a keeper. Anyone who'll stick with you doing your trips...pure gold.
The bike looks just lovely, but heavy! Damned heavy! Rather you than me ha ha! I’m sure you’ll both do ok on it, I hope you’ll both enjoy it too.
Oh yes, it’s heavy especially can feel it when we are pushing it up the hills haha!
Welcome back Ed and Aishola - can't wait to come along with you.
I hadn't heard of Kyrgyzstan until I heard Ayana Kasimova singing, now I dream of visiting there to hear her sing live, amazing voice.
Ed should be on television the contents and overall presentation is something that everyone should be able to appreciate 👍
this is produced so well that i could imagine it being on BBC2, the editing, music, filming is fantastic. Can't wait for more.
Reminds me a bit of the two guys up in Scotland who go on this little trips and it was on the BBC
Idea for next series: track down Ejiah Lejander wherever he is in the world to thank him in person.
He’s a legend rumor has it Mr Lejander fights crime!
Plz help me 😭🙏
The king has returned
im so excited for this!
25 minutes of just preparing and I enjoyed it throughout. Excited for the trip!
Great to see you back, Ed. Looking forward to this series. What fun!
I am already in love with this season... The Bike is back. One wheel for each of you.
That’s great to hear. As I say it’s like a double unicycle haha !
@@aisholaaisaeva 😁
I am so happy to see you two enjoying yet another bike tour together. Can't wait to watch the whole series! Love you both!! ♥️
Awesome Ed! Looking forward to the new adventures. Missed the updates.
Your production value and story telling is superb, Ed. Can’t wait to come along on your adventures
You could display your uni at your local bike shop with your u-tube information!
So excited about this new series Ed! The UK is a gem of a country when it comes to sights!
So excited to watch this! Good to see you posting Ed
This is just brilliant! Thanks for all you hard work with the vid. And fantastic problem solving skills in getting the bike ready. Can't wait for the next episode!!
Awesome! watching the beginning and cant wait for the rest
So glad you're back! Looking forward to the next episode already
Back in August I bike packed (for the first time) from Lands End to Dover along the south coast. Stunning route, but yes very very very hilly. Enjoy Ed - watching your world trip was the main reason I wanted to put a tent on my bike in the first place, so thank you!!
Wow very nice. We met several cyclists doing Land’s End to John O’Groat when we were on the road. Would be fun to do that one day!
Awh can't wait! Good luck guys
Absolute quality as always Ed, looking forward to watching.
Nobody does adventure videos like you Ed so excited to see you back posting!
Damn, I started to think he abandoned his channel. Good to see they are still going!
This channel inspired me to do my own world bike trip (in the future) and creating unforgettable videos. Seeing his enginuity once again getting this bike ready, reminded me of my big plans. I won't just put bags on a bike and go. I will supposedly construct my very own custom bike, which will be a combination of a recumbent trike and a pickup truck, yes you read right. Sitting in front in some kind of capsule that provides protection from the weather, and having a big bed in the back - literally a bed, combination of sleeping area and storage. The whole construction being made of aluminum, I want to be sleeping with a little bit of protection from animals and the like, which you don't have at all in a tent. I know, the whole construction will be ridiculously heavy, but on such a trip, you are not needing to get anywhere fast. Such a construction would come with unusual benefits, like a huge plain in the back, where you could spread out serious solar chargers, and power is always a concern on such an insane trip. Having watched his world trip, I got the serious wanderlust.
wow, you should go for it and maybe we meet you on the road at some point!
@@aisholaaisaeva Thank you for reading all that. And yes, that would be insanely awesome and could actually happen. I mean, how were the odds of Ed meeting another Brit, Will randomly on the other side of the planet?
Once I will do the trip and do videos, I'll certainly refer to you both in those. =D
That sounds awesome!
@@tompi6256 Thank you for saying so. Makes me believe more, that people would really enjoy, what I could be showing. I know I enjoyed it a lot, when Ed showed us very distant and lonely places all over the world.
Just followed you, looking forward to see this come to reality. I barely can imagine how your vehicle will look like, but you are the only one who needs the vision of it. I hope you will end up doing it, you just gotta start. I did my first bicycle tour this year and after postponing it for like two months I just started some day at like 4pm without much preparation just to get rolling and I dont regret it.
great to see you back on the road.. love your work!
Very excited to hear about this, can't wait for the series
Super excited for this series!!!
Good to have you back, I love your trip ideas and Aishola but your beautiful editing makes each video warm, cool, personal and down home charming. So very British
I am so excited to see this series!!! You two are adorable.
Great to watch - excited to see the adventure. So true that these things only happen if you make them.
Welcome back. Looking forward to watch you next journey. Safe travels.
This video made me smile, thanks for coming back and sharing another episode of your life adventure!
Stoked for this series!
Looking forward to the excitement. Beautiful bike too...Rohloff hub & charging off the front is pretty sweet.
Good to see you guys again.
I did many tandem tours in the past, it is so much fun.
Try a 30 degrees offset in the pedals (stoker 30 degrees ahead of the captain), that eliminates the dead point in the cranks and reduces the maximum torque on the Rohloff. Made our tandem more efficient.
You only need to watch the pedals when leaning into turns.
Love this already! Thanks for making these videos Ed & Aishola!
So so happy to see you back! Great video as always, Ed xx
Im so excited for this series!!!!!!!!
GOOD MORNING ED!
Oooof, my thighs are SCREAMING just LOOKING at those hills lol.
I used to use rubber swimming caps to protect my seats.
What I fantastic idea, never even considered that. I guess if our rain covers rub through we might upgrade
Plz help me 😭🙏
Congratulations Ed. Another fantastically well put together video. Thank you for your time. I hope you're both well and enjoying whatever it is you're up to now!
Biscuits are my motivation.
Absolutely brilliant! So excited for the rest!
Great video and wonderful to see you back on another adventure.
Wooo! Good to see you back Ed!
Thank you for this. I’ve missed this content. Perfection! Your story telling is amazing.
Yeah, I love it. Cant wait for next week and episode 2! Thanks for creating such amazing content
Glad to see you posting again love the videos bro
So cool to see you guys back out on the bike. Glad you kept the person to wheel ratio correct!
I’m happy and excited to see you both back and embarking on a new adventure! Cheers!
Beautiful !!! Happy to see you again Edd ; all the best!!!
I am so excited for the adventure. Congrats to both of you.
Thank you!
I have seriously missed these videos your styles of filming make for such lovely viewing I feel like I'm right there with you both cannot wait to watch the series 😊 thank you for making more much appreciated
So good! Worth the wait and seeing you both on another mission. Enjoy more missions in Georgia!
Great to see you back. Looking forward to watching videos from your tandem trips in the near future.
Glad to see you back Ed!
Yay, finally. Been waiting for this!
That is why your videos are good to watch and very professional because you strive for perfection! Good job!
Ed it's so good to have you back, still one of my all time inspirations.
I love all of this, nice edit! Can’t wait for more
Great to see you both back on the saddle and as usual great videography and story, looking forward to the rest of this adventure from my couch in Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺😊
Great to see you both still together and making a new series.
So happy to see you back again! Can't wait to follow your trip around our coastline.
Hey Ed! So glad you're back. Locked in from Australia.
Nice setup. I have a bike with a Rolhoff hub and a generator hub and love it. I’ve taken in from Lawrence KS to Washington DC in two trips. It just goes.
Yes..... you're back with a great video again, and some great videos to come. Looking forward to your tandem coastline episodes. Take care and be safe.
Great to see you back with a new adventure Ed!!
Awesome man, looking forward to the series!
Love your creativity as always Ed, that audio set up is top notch! Can't wait for the other videos!
I don’t think this is called out enough. His audio is always amazing!
Please help me 😭🙏 brother
Happy to see you back on the road!
Great to have you back Ed. Sad to see the Unicycle stored away like that though, hopefully in time you can hang it somewhere.
Great to see you back with new content, you two make a great couple together. Looking forward to episode 2. I recently walked parts of the SW path myself, beautiful part of the UK.
So great to see you out and about again...cheers!
Looking forward to seeing the new adventure
Glad to see you two back touring, again.
Thank you. Looking forward to your future videos.
I'm so excited to see this series!
What a great adventure! Thanks for the touring tips as well. Can't wait to follow you guys along the way.
Fabulous video and your an inspiration for anyone taking up adventures like this. Some neat ideas tips and tricks you have added to your bike
It is a lovely video- wonderful collaborative work between you two.
Fantastic story telling! Like professional documentary levels of info and emotion. Cheers
Great editing. Wonderful hacks on the gear. My spouse and I have had a hand-built Assenmacher tandem since 1981. Still have it. Still ride it. We've toured all over in the US (of course), parts of Canada, a few islands in the Caribbean, NZ, more islands in the South Pacific and in Ireland. We're in our 70's now and, having the means, we have changed out the camping routine for hard roof stays in posh places where we can get a shower, get warm and a table cloth at dinner. But, still do tours from time to time. Be well.
Very impressive! Well done you two!!
Glad to see you pedalling another adventure
I'm so hyped for this series!
Wow i was waiting for This 👏👏👏👏
Amazing look at all the modifications on the Tandem. A super episode. Many thanks, Ed..
The best plans! Hats off to both of you...
Ed! Thanks for the upload!
So happy now!
Look forward to the next phase of your adventure.
Good to see your back Ed
I was just wondering this week when you would upload again AND it is a series! Yay!
so happy youre back!
This is so great. We enjoyed your last series. My wife is really going to enjoy this one. What a beautiful tandem. Take care and stay safe, Al
