  • My friend Aaron and I tackle the Cowichan Valley 8 bikepacking route on Vancouver Island.
    bikepacking.co...
    The plan: to follow the full figure-8 route with the exception of the Victoria city portion as we started the trip from the Vancouver mainland.

    Hope you enjoy watching the video as much as we enjoyed riding this visually stunning part of Vancouver Island. 🙂

    Great video showing what it’s like to ride this trail. Appreciate that you posted the distance and time you rode each day. I’ve had many “hike a bike” rides but now glad to get assistance from my Trek Dual Sport E-bike. With the extender battery attached you need to recharge the battery about every 42 miles if going uphill on gravel with full gear and in sport mode (one above eco mode). On level pavement my battery range is twice as good.😊

    Thanks for the great video! I am planning on heading out there next weekend. However, after watching you suffer the climbs on the way up I will only do the north Cowichan portion 😅

    Well done sir! I know how hard you trained for this and really proud of you for completing this journey and sharing your story. Not going to lie - I'm a bit jealous - but I 110% guarantee I would have been right with you on those hike-a-bike climbs. Look forward to discussing cinematography for the next several days!

      Thanks Craig, and yeah, I could have used a pain partner for the uphills. Yes, there will be cinematography discussions for sure although my options are limited being a one camera kind of guy. :)

    Question - was it really a bear or a wolf??

    • @chasingmyfreedom3642
      @chasingmyfreedom3642  Рік тому

      I'd say definitely larger than a wolf Nad - snapping branches as it walked and making a decent amount of noise while moving through. Hope you enjoyed the vid!
