    Real men do cry, I lost my wife this year, she was only 49 years old, believe me, I cried hard, and many times since. Love watching your videos and getting shown around the beautiful places in your country. You are a vegan inspiration. Big hugs and love from the UK.

      It absolutely did, I showed it in a clip sitting on my phone while I was riding and I hit a bump, and the whole burrito fell off my bike. But it stayed together, and I ate it anyways 😂

    All the riders that come through the bike path in Sausalito... so awesome. I am so lucky to live *literally* next to the path in the houseboats. I see bikepacking riders like Tyler all the time going up and down the coast. Years ago, I bike-camped across Washington... then Canada-Mexico and this path ties so much of it all together for me. I ride it every week. It's such a lucky place to live. It's also amazing when you ride through your home territory after being in "the wild" for so long. You feel connected to the land for the whole trip, but especially when you get on the home routes. Keep the rubber side down! So glad you passed through and what a great series you are producing! - edit - ha, the conversation about riding alone. Man, did I ever get into my own head for the 2100 miles of riding. I learned so much about myself by being on the road on my own... tired, hungry, meeting cool people, seeing awesome things. All life-changing.

    Tyler - I'm not a cyclist that makes films but a film maker that rides bikes; all the bikes!😌
    Now, he proceeds to virtually ride routes that are nearly impossible by two-wheelers powered by human effort. Going to such lengths (pun intended) to spread the love and the positivity to all of us viewers. And there's the community that jumps out from wherever to support whenever they could.
    You, Sir Tyler, are one of the greatest blessings to humanity.
    Keep pedaling and rolling them wheels whilst most of us would continue to pray for your safety, health and mentality and cheer you on!
    Peace on to you always!😁🙏

Not sure if I even had time to explain after all that, but I had raced at Ironman 70.3 Santa Cruz, the day before this. I got up early to meet you in Half Moon Bay. All I had with me was my TT bike and race gear. I was very happy you enjoyed my rice-ball snacks, and even wanted seconds! I wished I could have ridden with you longer, but what a great experience to be a small part of this adventure. BTW, your Instagram stories were sooo excellent to follow each day - many of us could appreciate that. THANK YOU!

      That’s wild, my most popular series is called the impossible route. It’s a three season 11 episode feature length film series that was shot documentaries style. This originally was going to be a single film and done in that same way, but I decided there was just too much story to tell so I broke it up into these daily episodes and more like a Vlog format. I think it’s a great way to tell the story but it often doesn’t go outside of my audience. So I’m actually super stoked that one, it got recommended to you. And two, that you took the time to watch them.

    To all those who complain about vegetables. When you are eating 10,000 calories a day, you really don't need to worry about micronutrients. You'll get more than enough from whatever it is you are eating (unless you're eating literally just butter). In a normal diet vegetables are really important, in these kinda of super high calorie diets, less so.

      OK, so it was strange on this trip. Usually I listen to 70% podcasts 30% music. But because I was constantly vlogging, I ended up having the ear earbuds act as earplugs. So I probably listened to podcasts or music only about 20% of the day and the rest of the time it was just kind of muted or muffled. It actually kept me super locked in and I thoroughly enjoyed it, which was a very strange experience.
