    Goodness.
    I did this trek back in 1996 and got completely SHOCKED (In a good way) that most of it now is bikeable. As I switch from backpack in the old days to bicycle nowadays, this sure will get on my bucket list again.
    Safe travels!

      I did the trek in '96 as well-left my bike with a nice kid in Pokhara for a few weeks.
      Absolutely unbelievable that it's possible to ride the route now. Did you see the TOILET at 10:30? Unreal!

    Great video. I did this bike packing trip 5 years ago but took a different route. I went over the Tillicho Lake pass down to Johmson then back over throng La. Throng La is was better west to east, the descent down into Manang was superb.

    I can honestly say thanks for bringing us into your world. The only bicycle adventrue I did was a solo ride across Canada. Nothing compares to what you just displayed and yet I did struggle in my own ways going across Canada.
    The amount of oxygen deprivation must have been overwhelming on that last summit.
    Stay safe and may the winds be mostly at your back.

    I first did this trek in 1991 out of season in February with over a metre of snow all the way from Thorung Phedi - a real killer - the hardest thing I’ve ever done - falling repeatedly waist deep into the snow. I did it again in 2010 in season, with less snow, and it was comfortable. But that was without a bike! All credit to you, especially for your light-hearted manner and attitude.
    What happened to your nice titanium bike? Wouldn’t that have been lighter?

    Having trekked the whole circuit , plus up into the sanctuary and Annapurna base camp when it was mostly all trail before being blasted out in parts to give the area more accessibility . one wonders how one gets around the crazy new 2023 Nepalese rules re: everyone now must have a hired guide , will they have guides for adventure bikers also ?
