- The San Rafael Swell in Utah is without a doubt one of the most beautiful places that I've ever experienced. WHOA! We rode the 'Swell Night Out' route from Bikepacking.com and it did not disappoint. 75 miles of pure desert beauty.

Hey Ryan! As one of the two creators of the San Rafael Swell Night Out route (along with my buddy Patrick: @worldsbetweenlines), and as someone who has followed an appreciated your videos for many years now, I just wanted to thank you for sharing your experience on this route with everyone. It is incredibly rewarding to see people out experiencing the beauty of the Swell, which you have captured perfectly! Also, thank you for also showing the challenges that the route provides (and the rewards thereafter) as it is one of the hardest things to convey in a short written format, but it is so so critical to letting riders know what the route entails and what they should expect while riding. Looking forward to the Day 2 Video and thanks for sharing the stoke! - Seth (@tipsyrider)
No way!!! I wanna reach out and hug you!! This route was so amazing. You put together something magical, THANK YOU!!
@@duzer Virtual hug right back at ya, buddy! The feeling is mutual. Thank you for sharing this wonderful place with others, and so much of yourself in the process of making your videos!
@@tipsyrider1 I have a feeling that I'm gonna meet you someday!
@@duzer Hope so! Ride safe!
i'm a fan and have difficulty walking with arthritis and and a bad knee, but i got a Turi from Priority and i'm riding. this is freedom for me to get around again. Thank you.
I love hearing this!! Have fun on that awesome bike
I also have trouble walking, but I can ride. Welcome Brother!
"This is what you came for". There is wisdom in seeing that. When I am in a hard place riding my bike, I focus on my breath and it starts to feel like the difficulty is near me, but not enveloping me. It is kind of like knowing there is the pain and there is me, and the two are different and separate things. That looked like the perfect camp site! 🙂
I like that!! Thanks for sharing your wisdom
I'm still dreaming of this desert, it's so beautiful. Have any of you done this route? Or something similar? Also, here's the link for the Frijoles T-shirt www.prioritybicycles.com/products/duzer-tee
Recently did the White Rim Trail in one day minus one section because of the flooding and it was AMAZING! Love the drone footage!
The visuals are mesmerizing. I have never seen anything quite like that in my life.
I'd love to get out here one day to ride!
@@jeffjacksonmtb White Rim is something special! Glad that you got to do it
@@StreetfilmsCommunity It was out of this world!! I'd been all over that area, but this route was special
Awesome video. I really needed Scott's talk. I've been struggling lately doing the "hard stuff" that I have enjoyed my entire life. Good to be reminded there is strength in the struggle.
I really loved hearing Scott’s advice on perseverance. That was so amazing. Thank you!
Me too, such great wisdom
What great insight from an incredible endurance athlete. You can see the passion in his expressions and the wisdom from his experiences as he answers your question about handling the pain of a long race. Athletes like you and Scott can explain what mental toughness is all about. Thanks Duzer!
I've learned a lot from him, and I'm so glad to share his wisdom with YOU!
@@duzer thanks Ryan. You can tell by his enthusiastic response he was glad to share his process and experience. He was in his element for sure
SO AWESOME !!!! I love the talks that happen when you hit the trails. Something magical happens when you push yourself through a tough day. Helps me reflect on where I am and who I am in this big world
I’ve had some of my best conversations on trails!
Ryan, this is one of your best videos. The addition of Scott added a new positive mix to the adventure. His philosophy towards the end of the video about running, cycling, and ultimately life was an awesome bonus. Looking forward to part two!
Hey thanks, I really appreciate that. Scott is an amazing guy, lucky to call him a friend
As always thanks for taking us along. Great motivational interview with Scott at the end. Thank u Brother.
Wow, what a pleasure listening to Scott around the “bush fire”. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching until the end!
Thank you for sharing yet another awesome adventure. I just completed my first bikepacking journey on my 600X! It's all thanks to you and this awesome bike for inspiring me to get out there.
That's awesome! I hope that you had an incredible experience!
Beautiful !!!!!! Love your videos Ryan. You are the reason my wife and I started cycling 4 years ago. She has gotten off her diabetes medicine and is no longer concidered diabetic since she started cycling. I love your part of the United States. It's so pretty and a lot different from my side of the country: North West Georgia.
Oh wow!! I’m so happy to hear this about your wife. That’s huge!! I’m sending you both a high five from Colorado
Thank you for another exquisite video. Your filming and narration just keep getting better and better.
Thanks for putting the date this ride was done. It helps for future planning 👍.
Thanks, Althea! Really appreciate that. If you ever have questions about this route, lemme know

Cheers
Thanks Travis! I bet you’ve been out there, it’s not far from you.
I lived in the Swell for three months while being a part of a wilderness program. This video brings back a lot of memories. Thank you.
Wow! That musta been an amazing experience. That area is stunning
@@duzer It truly was! The whole swell is beautiful. Did you ever go to the part of the Swell near Cedar Mountain?
Awesome adventure. Great inspirational words from Scott, and to get into his mind as to how he gets through his greatest challenges, was a treat. I want one of those pretty Priority 600Xs. Some day! :) Thanks Beans!
Ryan! As always, such a pleasure to watch! You and Scott made it look so easy. Looking forward to day #2
Oh wow!! Thank you so much for your generosity!! YOU ARE AWESOME!!
Amazing people with amaing experiences! Thank you Ryan and Scott for the life lessons!
Thank you!!
What an incredible place and Scott really did so well considering his lack of bike experience👍I know he is a super fit guy but cycling is so different from running and those climbs were insane so kudos to him👍At one point I saw Scott pushing the bike up a steep incline and there's Ryan pedalling away holding a camera, no substitute for experience 😉Fantastic video Ryan, can't wait for the next instalment!
It was so fun to romp around the desert with him! and now he's HOOKED!
Ryan , I've always liked your nature element. Talking to the animals, taking a moment to showcase the plant life.
Thanks, slowing down and taking it all in is one of the best parts of getting outside
THIS IS GREAT! The whole family (all 4 kiddos, Mom and I) enjoyed watching this together. What a neat adventure. Thank you for sharing this with us!
YAY! Glad to hear it. Hope your summer is awesome so far!
Whoever got Scott Jurek on a Priority did Priority a huuuuge favor.
Man, surprise Jurek! Wasn’t expecting it, but loving it!
You could have let that dark sky at 43:33 play on for 5 or 10 minutes and I would have loved it. I was so completely in the moment and entranced from Scott's campfire talk. Great video as always, Ryan.
I would have, but the battery died on my Timelapse 😂😂 Thanks for watching!
Ryan’s book, “The Long Way Home,” and Scott’s book, “Eat & Run,” are both really great and inspiring books! I wish I could go biking with these guys!! I have a Priority 600X too. Let’s go! Haha
Thank you so much!! Maybe someday we can ride together, you never know...
Once again I have been inspired by your videos (plus entertained). Thank you very much. Now I am looking at the awesome Mawson Trail or a Tasmanian Trail ... I just have to get out amongst it!
STUNNING!
You’re editing and cinematography just keeps getting better Ryan.
Thank you, I'm always trying to up my game!
Love Scott. Plant Strong!
You know it!!
You guys really bring the best out of each other ❤
You inspire me to plan on making a purchase for a Priority Bike (low maintenance/ 🚲 traveling machine 🙏 Thanks!
The atmosphere with the gorgeous views and the silence must have been awesome. I imagine that you two had some pretty good off camera discussions.
Long talks under the stars are the best
I am going to see what books Scott has written as soon as this video is over.
One is called Eat and Run, the other is called North (that’s the one about his Appalachian trail run)
One of the best reasons I wait for Sunday to come is it's Ryan's new video day.
Awww, thank you!
Breathtaking Scenery.. I hope to do one out west bike ride 🚲 I like the one special announcement where one must be cautious on the risk.. Because if you're in the Middle of nowhere.. Rescue could be challenging🙂
I hope that you can make it out here someday!
What a fantastic loop. I must do this on my eBike and trailer. I am fortunate to have an extra battery so think I can make it in "eco" mode. What a great video guys. Thanks to Ryan and Scott.
I bet you could!!!
Thanks for a dose of beautiful desert. Thank you so much for the wisdom advice for being to vet things done. Try to enjoy the ride
I got my Apollo 11 priority because of your videos I enjoy it so much. Very durable and low maintenance.
Very cool, that’s a sweet bike! Happy trails
@@duzer thanks!
What an incredible trail Ryan. You are really living your life. We don't have anything that looks like that in the UK really... I was waiting for you to find a jelly baby on the trail though haha. Can't wait for part 2 😊
The Swell (and most of southern Utah) is truly amazing. Totally unreal landscapes that fill a person with wonder. Just driving I-70 through the Swell is quite an experience. Looking west from a distance on the freeway, it looks like a massive shipwreck in the desert.
I was looking for a Jelly Belly out there :)
@@duzer 🤣
I really appreciated Scott's insight during the 'no-campfire' talk. That's some rich wisdom from someone who's experienced a lot of pain in his adventures.
I love hearing his wisdom on topics like this
Best damn campfire talk (without a campfire!🤣). Good tips on how to navigate through the challenges of remote areas and…life itself.
I’m with you! So much helpful wisdom right there
great channel. the rwanda episode was especially enjoyable. thanks for the hard work producing it all.
I think Priority should put Ryan on their Costco ads, lot of Ryan/Costco crossover.
Next level fun and positivity. Grateful for you Duze.
Ryan. Thank you. You are an inspiration for many. Love you
Thanks, Robert!
Growth happens when we get out of our comfort zone!
So true!
Great piece. Keep them coming.
Thanks, will do!
Great advice in this one along with beautiful views! 👍👍🏻
Thanks!
Thanks for being faithful doing metric conversion for us people in metric countries. Beautiful storytelling and cinematography. A "good feel" video. Being a Duzer follower since your GDMBR series :).
Wow that really is something special out West.
It's quite the mind bending area!
LOVE Utah!
Me too!!
That aerial is amazing
Some of the best drone shots I’ve ever gotten
Thank you as always for sharing
No, thank you for watching!!
Stunning landscape!
So amazing out there
Unreal, beautiful scenery. Those drone shots are incredible.
I finished watching your GDMBR series over the last week, and was so inspired that I've planned to get out on a mountain bike for the first time in a decade and spend a couple days bikepacking in one of England's national parks (although seriously less impressive than anything in states). Thanks for sharing your adventures and being an inspiration!
Hope you have fun - there is spectacular stunning beauty here in the U.K. too its a different kind of beauty but beautiful non the less The Lake District The Breacons and Snowdonia will definitely give you the wow factor 😁 the Scottish Highlands too apparently but I havent been there 👍
That’s great!! I wish you all the best on your big adventure. You’re gonna LOVE it!
I wanna go there someday!
@@topcat8891 Thank you, and absolutely agree! Beautiful, but on a smaller scale than the US. I live near the lakes now, and studied just outside Snowdonia, so very fortunate to get to experience those beautiful, wild places.
Thanks!
Wow! Thank you for your generosity!! You rock
Ryan, I saw you and Amelia at the Bolder Boulder on the east side on Monday! Hope you both had a great guys! Keep getting after it! Love your videos!
Oh cool!! It was such an awesome day!! Hope you had fun
Excellent job taking use with you on your grand adventures!
Thanks for coming along!
Your videos are so beautiful and inspiring, thanks for sharing.
Thank you!! That means a lot to me
Oh man, I can't believe you're at the San Rafael Swell! Such an amazing place.
The best!
Great tips 🏃♀️
always on point..To live life respecting and knowing there's more than just us and what we complain about..
So true!
@@duzer Would you recommend a hardtail like the Trek Roscoe or the Giant Trance 3 for long.long rides?
Great! Both of you are my heroes~~
Awwww, thank you!
The views are incredible! Thanks for sharing your adventure.
Thanks for watching!
Great video Ryan. It is a beautiful place and would like to take my bike there some day. Maybe when I ride across the country in a couple of years from now. Thank you as always!
So interesting to hear Scott talk about the selfish act of running.. I often come to that aspect and like he said, these selfish elements help us go forward. I pick up trash on my runs and I always say that picking up a single piece of trash on your warm-up immediately turns the selfish act of running into something that isn't just good for you, but something that is now good for us and good for the planet. Great video Ryan and Scott
Love this philosophy!! You've just inspired me to pick up more trash when I'm on the trails
@@duzer the beauty of this community is that we inspire each other🙏
Stumpjumpers & Rockhoppers are the coolest Mountainbikers 💯👌
They sure are
Hey Ryan , new fan here in Canada . Keep up the good work . I am from the class of ‘99 and sadly , that’s when biking stopped . But with the help of your videos , I bought a beginner bike to get my lungs back , and being a taxi driver for 12 years , I need to try to eat better and not from 7-11 or McDonalds
Congrats on choosing to make your life more healthy and FUN! I wish you all the best going forward.
Try to bunny hopped a snake. 😂 in all seriousness, hats off to Scott taking on that trip with not being on a bike for such a long time. 👍
I think I got my front wheel up a few inches 😂😂
Awesome as always
Thanks!
Love your positive energy man
Thanks! The desert makes me happy
@@duzer i'm out here in the Peruvian high andes waiting for my fever to go away so I can keep going on the PGD
So purdy! 😍
OMG the one and only :D yeey!
I think its really good that you explain and go thru the bike for eventual new people coming here. Really good! not everyone knows you :D or have followed you like forever :D
Thanks! I get a lot of new viewers every week and I like to get them up to speed. Hoppas allt ar bra med dig!
@@duzer im doing allright well last week i threw out my back or however you call it so i was home for a week but i have started to cycle to work now and summer is here. Im dreaming about you coming to Sweden hope you find time next summer when this summer you had plans on RAGBRAI and man would it be cool to do RAGBRAI but im fully booked. And to do and plan a trip to the States is nothing i do over night :D with diet food and meds the thought makes me a bit stressed out but it sould not be impossible. But i still have a dream to bike thru MURICA :D
Wow, this is next level photage!
The drone shots are my fave ever!
I haven't watched anything on your channel for a long time so figured it was time to check out a video. Well done, thank you. I love the desert and since I may have to live in my car soon - I expect that I'll be 'car-camping' in those areas when the temps are tolerable.
It’s definitely a good place for car camping…amazing access to the outdoors
Great video! Re walking the downhill over steep terrain and loose baby-head rock, I love flat pedals and good pair of trail runners. No shame in walking. Heck, I've walked for miles along roads in the south to avoid logging trucks on paved roads without shoulders. :-)
I agree, I'm a big fan of flat pedals on this type of terrain because I'm constantly on and off my bike.
Dozen Cousins ROCKS!
So tasty!
haha, All i can think is saddle sores when you bring people that are not used to biking that much. But those places are so incredible that it makes it worth it.
I hear you, luckily Scott is on a bike everyday commuting around town…but of steel!
I rode that loop back in late April, I started at Hidden Splendor. Great area to explore.
Right on!! I bet you loved it
I'm jealous! I postponed my spring trip to Moab because i want to be able to access one of my favorite mt bike trails (Captain Ahab) without having to cross a creek which is "running fast and rising", according to a local bike shop. And what a cool partner (aka a legend)!
I love riding Captain Ahab!! Such a great trail. Hope you get to do it soon
Great “guest”, I guess, and terrific insight from him on dealing with tough challenges. Anxiously awaiting the next post!
He’s full of good wisdom
Love it, wouldn't b a proper sunday without the vid! one day I dream of electric skateboarding along side you, it be epic! I try to take your motivation into skatepacking, your range is longer than the batteries could ever be.
Wow, skatepacking sounds fun!! Hope to meet you someday
Nice Ryan 👍🏼 🚲
Thanks 👍
Excellent ride. I'd be pulling my BOB trailer♾️
Good ol BOB!
Hey, I have a StumpJumper!! Love that bike + full suspension....!!
It’s a sweet bike!
@@duzer Thanks my man, just making sure it was.....
That’s a crazy beautiful area! 😲
It’s off the charts!
7:09 Totally remember watching Press Your Luck when I was home from school as well 😂😂😂
Haha!! It was a good one :)
The Priority 600x is an amazing bike if price and weight are not an issue, but the best is never cheap.
Rare is it that two such great athletes share the trail, great video.
Thanks.
The price is actually far cheaper than any comparable bike. Most pinion bikes start at 5k
@@duzer You're right.
Stay healthy out there.
Thanks for all you do.
@@frankducett9 But I agree, 3500 is still a lot of money, no matter how you look at it
Elective suffering. Great definition of what we do, or yall do, I'm pretty much retired.
yep, we choose this pain :)
First! Biggest fan!
YOU SURE ARE!!! Thank you!!
I remember meeting Scott for first time about 18 years ago at Western States. Such a great human. I would love more info on his cold soaked noodles. Never really thought about that mode/method. Thanks for the video..
He's a great guy all around. I'll ask him about the cold soaked noodles
I looked for the rear pack set up I think you said Trek rear bags. Couldn’t find them. The rack to hold dry bags is a great looking, practical setup. Please share what they are, I probably missed it somewhere. Thanks.
Hey I recognize that bag o' beans @31:40 !!
DING DING DING!
Looked steep to me!
“My friend Scott”…burying the lede a bit there, Ryan! 😂
He he :)
Both of you god bless you thank you Ryan as always you have a amazing friend you both have made my birthday today a happy birthday thank you so much my friends
Happy birthday, Bobby!! I hope that you have an awesome day!! **and eat sone yummy food. Maybe beans? 😂😂
@@duzer lol yeah I love beans to 😁😀
I'm using a viking touring master x bike with a pannier rack on back, would a full frame bag plus rear panniers be a good combination please with my tent strapped to my butterfly bars, loving your videos
Thanks Ryan always great content. The swell has alot of great landforms. Check out some slot canyons there too.❤
I wanna check out the slot canyons next time!
Those drone shots are.....as the kids say.....hella crazy!
Hella!!! Some of the best I’ve ever gotten…with credit to Mother Nature, of course :)
