Personal introspection , set against the scenic backdrop of dirt roads revealing historic paths, all wonderfully intertwined in skillful cinematic beauty makes it enjoyable to watch your video all the way to the end, finishing the ride together. Thank you !
Liked this video. Taught me some new ideas for camera angles, and I like how you adapted the narrative to add another character, diverting it from yourself in part. Also remarkable how much of it is drone shots -- easy choice to make when it's this beautiful of course! I'm still struggling to get maybe ~1/10th of my drone footage useable, but I wrote down a couple of your tricks to give them a try. Good luck out there!
Great video! you have a good eye for video, editing, and narrating. Really enjoyed the history of Herman Lehmann. Such an amazing true story! Please keep posting your journeys. Thanks!
Great video David!!!! Really like your productions. You are putting together a great mix of content....drone usage...commentary....and story. The sub segment about Herman Lehmann was really good...I had heard the story quite some time ago but had pretty much forgotten about it. You tied it in to the trip/video really well. Looking forward to your next release. Thanks for bringing us along....and best of luck in the Nationals!!!
As a cyclist I enjoyed and am inspired by your video. As a Texan from hill country, I'm offended by your pronunciations... JK. Great video. I've been to that same cemetery a couple years ago. I now plan to explore some of these areas on my bike. Thanks!
Well done. As a hiker-backpacker that grew up in a public lands state yet worked in Texas in the 70-80s, I went how did you bike pack Texas? I like your observations on challenges of Olympic form lifting versus pedaling long distances and sleeping on the ground.
great video, David. wow, a solo trip! I'm from SA, what route is the one you mentored close to SA. what national event are you doing? I also have the Colorado trail on my list and Camino de Santiago. finally I compete at nationals marathon xc
Thank you! I’m competing at Senior Nationals in June! The ride I was referring to is the Texas BBQ overnighter. It’s not really that close to SA. Good luck at your marathon!
Another nice video David! It’s horrific what happened to the indigenous people. Glad your protagonist made it ok and that you found his grave. Native American children were often stolen also btw, estimates are as high as 25% and raised in non Native homes. A past we should be taught and not ignored or worse wiped from history Good luck at Nationals! I competed in gymnastics at Nationals.. so much fun
Thanks for watching Ray, I agree and this is something I wish I had mentioned. I thought of Sacagawea when I was reading your comment. She is a famous example of a native who was more or less enslaved by the Americans. These are stories that need to be told as well.
@@dlambbikepacking. Sorry if I was a bit of a downer -(. The story you told was amazing. You have great writing, videography and speaking ability … keep ‘em coming !!

Beautiful scenery. I live in Texas and the hill country is wonderful. Thanks for the great story. Good luck with your lifting.
