    Hello my friends! I know it’s probably confusing to see an upload today (after my burnout upload on Friday) I was supposed to be in Mexico during this time, so I scheduled the final 2 videos in the series to be released while I was gone. Thanks again for all your love and support!!

      It was an awesome surprise I clicked on it right away!! Great views again Ryan and as always a great adventure with great friends!! :) I had commented on your previous video that you should write a book and I was not kidding you have untold stories that haven't been revealed yet and how you felt about it all. We see you in short videos but I can tell how very much you can feel this earth cry and shout so put it into your own words from the beginning and maybe it will help to heal your soul and ease the pain of the grief you are feeling for others and knowing your grandmother is not well is of course concerning to you. It is not a crime for Ryan Van Duzer to take some me time off, go get right with your world Ryan and if you do or don't publish your book maybe some reflection will make you feel better. :) :)

    The tiny river you see is not the size of the river that gouged out the canyon. Like the Niagara Gorge, glacial melt water loaded with sand and gravel gouged it out over numerous advances and retreats of ice. The river water shed, or basin, are the Rockies. Imagine the amount of ice in the glacial era. Keep the faith Ryan.

    Great trip! Also fun to watch because we were there in Page AZ and the Southern rim of Grand Canyon in early March 2020. I love that area. If you're ever in the Chicago area come by and see the bike garage!

    I have been enjoying watching you three! You all make a great team. Grand Canyon has a special place in my heart too. When my friends and I did the AZT, from the North Rim of the Canyon to Jacob Lake, we got to the cabin Edward Abbey stayed in, I took a picture of his carved initials in the wall of the cabin. It was pretty cool.

    The Grand Canyon was my first real experience when visiting Arizona in 2000. We fell in love and bought our retirement home here near Phoenix in 2010. Retired and moved here from Boston in 2017. Been back to the Canyon a bunch of time since and it never gets old. John is a biking machine and I wish both he and Mira a great, successful journey!

    Awe-inspiring. Last August I took a dreamy coastal bike trip that was so good I lost my urge to do more for awhile. It was the kind of trip that I keep thinking about all winter long, wondering if I will ever feel that good again. Almost like a hangover after a very fun night.

Just a word of warning for Australia, that quarantine will be a big challenge with Mira, so please do some research. If you can make it, you will love cycling in Oz!

    The river did not carve out the GC. The canyon walls were pushed up by tectonics. In some places, the walls are gaining altitude every year.

    • @Dan-sm1wr
      @Dan-sm1wr 2 роки тому +1

      Plate tectonics created the Colorado Plateau uplift, lifting the rocks high and flat. The Colorado river has been carving the canyon for the past five or six million years.

    As a video guy, I really appreciate how difficult it must be to film these biking videos. Well done sir! Wow, that echo really bounced! Agree, the desert is indeed a unique place. Been to the Grand Canyon many times, it never disappoints. I love that East Entrance, probably the best views of the Canyon.

    Man, if we don't get more normal snowfall in the High Country here in Colorado, the River might not exist in the future. Yet another down here for snowfall here - snow for skiing sucked again this season. Naturally, it snowed today in the High Country and most resorts are already closed (except for Breck, A-basin, and Loveland (we ski Copper). Argh. LOL
