That Baja sand forced me to go slower which gave me the opportunity to process a lot of things on my mind. What I once looked at as a pain in my butt became a gift. I’m feeling grateful for this journey and for all of YOU! Thanks for following this adventure.
It was a privilege watching this Baja series. It spurred me to assess my own Priority at least 600 x (times). 😊 This was a great and contemplative experience.
I saw some great graffiti whilst riding the other day. I was reminded of it several times during this video, when you pondered about life, the universe and everything.
'Nature is always here for you, even when your life is falling apart'.
I did post a link to photo of it, but post seems to have vanished. I'll post image link in reply below, in case that is why.
Hey Ryan
Thanks so much. Thanks to your motivation (and entertainment!) I'm (a 66yr old) off from Ottawa Canada on a solo stealth/self/sustained bike pack/tour of the Gaspe Peninsula this coming summer. Stay happy and motivated my man!
Nice, that sounds like a great adventure, enjoy!
I mike I was brought up in Ottawa now 72 and ride winter Fatbike and Electric Bike in summer, amuse toi bien au Québec :)
“Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced”. Soren Kierkegaard. Great adventure.👍
oooh, I love that!
Life is both. If you don't solve the problems that come at you, then you won't be able to experience the reality to it's fullest. Life is full of hurdles to get through.
Thank you so much Ryan! I really enjoyed taking this journey with you. You are truly an “awesome human”. 🌵❤
Awe!! Thank you
The best day of the week is the day of the new Van Duzer video! Happiness. Thank you!
Yay!! This makes me happy
OMG you where almost eaten by chihuahuas! I am so glad you made it Ryan ;) Hehe :) Awesome trip this is. Such beauty there.
I feared for my life 😂😂
@@duzer 🤣
You have inspired Andrew and I to take a bike packing trip this year. It will be our 2nd epic biking event as we did RAGBRAI in 2023, but our first bike packing adventure. We will be doing the Katy Trail in Missouri. We have it all planned as best we can for our distance each day and where to stop for our overnights. We are gearing up our bikes so that we are able to carry what we need to make the trip. We will roll with what comes at us the best we can and just enjoy being out there on our 600X's. Andrew has even talked one of his college buddies to join us for the trip. It will be an adventure that we will never forget. Thanks for sharing your Baja journey. It was truly an adventure worth watching.
Never burnt out with your content. The only problem I have is I'm jealous of your travels. You're very good at keeping a captive audience, I think. There's a good mix of biking and destination content. It keeps me hoping that maybe one day I'll be able to do just one of these fascinating trips by bike. Keep it up and be safe out there.
What a trip. A pack of chihuahuas, a parade of goats and some outstanding camping spots. Plus that awesome bike. This trip had it all. Take care, Al
Those chihuahuas cracked me up
Ryan I found ur channel when I was 18 now 23, u show people that it's possible and bring that great energy to the world, u have made a strong positive impact on many people and been a good role model for many of us🤘
That’s awesome! It’s an honor to have inspired you from a young age.
Sunday night bliss watching this last episode. Your are so much brighter in mood than episode one.
I felt a big change in just 7 days
Thanks for sharing your Baja adventure! This brings back childhood memories of my family’s trips to Ensenada, Colonet, and La Paz.
Thank you for your generosity!!! Glad that my vids could bring you back
Duze, we are grateful for the positivity you bring with every one of your videos. I look forward to each time a video gets posted cause I know my spirit will be lifted. Being outdoors in Mother Nature whether it’s at the ocean or in the mountains forces you to live in the moment. No better place to be!
I agree 100%! Thank you for the kind words
All you do is transmit bliss tu us. Really appreciate your effort into your content. But most of all your truly amazing way of looking at life. I am a Mexican who has been to Baja as a tourist most of my life (47 years and counting) and finally as of this year a permanent resident. So your love of Baja and its people really gets me. Bless you Ryan.
Nothing better than sleeping next to the sound of the waves ❤
I agree
Thanks!
Thank you for your generosity!!! You rock
Those of us with sensitive souls tend to feel everything. Glad you could find peace and open spaces to feed your soul on this trip. As always, your videos are so creative and flow smoothly and just lend an air of peacefulness to those watching. Take care of you and safe travels 😊
Thank you, this means the world to me.
Thank you for taking us to Baja again. It was a great one! I’m grateful to you for the inspiration! 🙌
Glad you enjoyed it…and I’ll probably go back in the future, I just can’t get enough of
The people like you inspire the others to go on a trip!!! Keep doing it!!!
Thank you for sharing Ryan. You are quite the inspiration to all of us. Viva Mexico!
Viva!!!
@duzer, never underestimate the positive impact you are having and the motivation you provide! As you evolve, don’t be afraid to share the stories of those people you meet on your travels or the people who motivate you. Thank You
I love sharing the stories of the people I meet, stay tuned
There is nothing better than listening to the waves. Just wonderful!
It’s my fave
Thanks for all the videos, it was fun. You are an inspiration. Thanks again.
You are so welcome!
Love the sounds of the small waves as they lap the shoreline and love the beauty of the ever changing clouds. Paradise…
Me too!!
Happy birthday Duzer!
Enjoyed the trip. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks 👍
¡Feliz cuarenta cinco años y un cumpleaños viaje en la baja! El cazador de burritos escapó el frío de Boulder por un cartel feroz de chihuahuas en México. Disfruta la buena vida. Gracias por compartirlo con nosotros.
Chihuahua cartel 😂😂 Saludos, amigo!!
Thank you Ryan for another amazing adventure :) You are true inspiration. I am a year younger :) and last summer I went on my first bike packing trip, 200km away, made camp on lake, was phenomenal. Like your last night near the sea... no hotel can substitute this feel :)
Love that you got out there! Now you’re hooked ;)
Nice puncture. I hit a beer bottle once, while drafting, and needed a couple hammers to straighten the flat rim. New tire and tube and, I was back on my way. Love these sand/gravel vids, thanks Ryan.
I especially love your videos in the deserts in the southwestern United States and in Mexico. Thank you. ❤❤
Thanks! The desert is my happy place
I started doing bike adventure because of you...Thanks
Right on! I wish you all the best on your adventures
26:28 I remember that feeling from my first big cycling adventure. I didn't want it to end.
Yep!
Thank you! Loved following-along from a cold Cleveland.!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wonderful adventure!👌
That chihuahua gang was so cute!😅😍 When I was motorcycling trough Mexico and Central America I wasn't afraid of the barking dogs, but I was constantly worried they would get hurt in my tyres! It's crazy how close they come!
I'm looking forward to your next adventures, even just the ones in your backyard... I really enjoy your positivity!😊❤
The dogs were so cute!!!
Thank you for sharing everything in this video. I love that you showed us the flat tire happening, and that yes, "FLATTIES HAPPEN" in life BUT we can get past them and see beauty at the end like that view of the sea!! Thank you for all the experiences you give us, the good, great, bad and....flat. Keep it up. You are doing a great job!
Thank you!! The flatties are all part of the adventure and make things sweeter when you get to the finish line
Great episodes 👏👏👏glad to see you back in the saddle and sharing your life …. One day you’ll meet the right one for you …. Just keep being your authentic self and it will happen…. Hubby and I just got back from a 2week bike packing tour in Cuba 🇨🇺and we had to share our photo with you as WE shared You and your stories with everyone we met here on our tour …. You may have some more followers….cheers Ryan and keep doing what you’re doing…it IS contagious…..love from TwoFansFromCanada 👏👏🇨🇦🇨🇦
Awe!!! You’re always so kind, thank you!! I’m so glad that you got the opportunity to explore the magic of Cuba
Ryan, Thank you for your channel, biked a lot in my thirties when I lived in New Mexico but got away from it after getting hit by a car. I happened upon your channel and got inspired to start biking again and plan on doing some bike packing. I just purchased a 600X and have started riding again up here on the Olympic Peninsula. Thank you again.
Right on! I hope that you enjoy all your new adventures on the 600x, I love your area, so beautiful!
Ryan, We loved all of your Baja Divide videos and in fact all of the videos you do! Keep up the good work and enjoy your riding. Taras & Joanne from the UK.
Thank you!! I really appreciate you two
Hi Ryan my name is Ben from New Zealand and i started watching ur u tube about 2& 1/2 years ago and thay help me to push my self out off my comfort zone and one year ago i loaded my bike up and road 3100kms over 23 day the lenth off NZ sum thing iabsolutely never thort i could do or hav ever thort about doing and that ride has changed me life and the way think about ever thing in life.
I would like to thank u for wot u do help people like me al around the world 🌎 and ho nose wot my next adventure my be 🎉
Wow!! What an incredible journey!! Way to go!! I wish you all the best on your future journeys
AWESOME video as always. Congrats on concurring the divide. 🥳HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!🥳 LOVE to see you bikepack Puerto Rico 🇵🇷.
Thank you!!
Every time I've seen a mechanic put in those bacon strips they've lit the excess on fire like a candle, waited for it to burn down to the tire, then blow it out. I assume this is to prevent it being pulled out as you drive on it, but it might also help the vulcanizing. It's worked every time.
Interesting!! I’ll have to try that, makes sense
Ryan great final. In this adventure in Baja you looks like the same Ryan , but, more Philosopher. “ Keep biking “ 😎😎💪💪
Thanks, my friend! The desert brings out the deep thoughts ;)
You have given me hope at least being an ok machanic one day. I get very frustrated and I feel like I am doing more harm than good when I work on my bike. It has detered me in the past where I will quit for awhile. But I will keep working on it like you did and stop being so hard on myself for the smallest things! Thanks for the positivity booster. These past 6 months have been especially hard on me but I have decided to stop being so scared and work for some dreams and some of those dreams are some bike adventures! Happy birthday to you and thanks for all that you do!
I hope I'll have my next bike trek this summer. Watching your videos and messages is inspiring, as always. Beginning and ending your journey? There is no Beginning. There is no End. Thank you for your efforts. I look forward to your next adventure, and mine, too.
Thanks for all of the effort and all of the exertion. Cannot get bored of Duzer content! Come ride with us in Australia 🦘
Awe, thanks! Australia is high on my list
You are an ocean of energy; thanks a lot for inspiring us by your braveness.. 🌹
Thank you for your kind words
Absolute classic ! My fav for a while, first class 😊
Thanks! I appreciate this
Ryan we love watching all your videos, but sometimes we just love to hear your fun voice while we do a jigsaw puzzle!! Keep talking!!! We love you!!!
Ha!! Love this…I’ll keep jabbering so you can keep on puzzling ;)
All those cactus growing with the trees looks so weird! like desert combined with forest! Very cool. Congrats!!! I just did my first 60 mile bikepacking adventure. Ready for bigger adventures.
Way to go on your first adventure! Many more to come, I'm sure!
Man, I love the rhythm of the Ocean bringing in the Waves. 🎉
Thanks for taking us along Ryan.
Me too! Therapeutic
Another good video, thanks! May GOD Bless you daily! ✌️
Thank you
Yeah!! Always grateful 😊
¡Excelentes videos! Te comencé a seguir hace unos días. Me gustó mucho tu viaje de Honduras a Colorado.
Yo viví 6 años en Greeley, Co. Conozco Boulder, Co.
Saludos desdé La Paz, Baja California Sur.
27:00 I felt it too! Awesome!
Así es hermano
I can’t do the rides you do but I have enjoyed watching them! I’m exactly 20 years older than you and have ridden for 10 years now. Thanks for the motivation, even though my rides are short in comparison! Take care brother! Keep pedaling!
I’ll keep on pedaling and you will too, cheers!
Brilliant adventure. Great production. DuzerTV rocks!
Thank you! I loved this one
Ryan thanks so much for this series. My wife and I have been following you and been patreons for the last few years and we never get tired of your show. We live in Florida and wanted to visit you on the Huracan which we did last year but unfortunately because of our schedule we missed you. One day I’m sure our paths will cross and I’ll buy you the biggest burrito you ever had. Love you and keep doing what you do.
Thank you two so much for your support! Bummer that I missed you in Florida, maybe next time! My Huracan video is coming out very soon
Tak!
Thank you so much!
What an awesome adventure. Wow. Your not burning us out. Thanks for sharing this with us. I only wish things were different in my life so i could try some of that.
Another inspirational video, thanks for sharing. It looks like the drone (I have the same one) behaved as it should on disconnection: it returned to its home point set on take off before you cycled off.
Indeed! But it was a little scary because I lost transmission with the controller
Great stuff ! Your shout out " I love you Baja" was grand.
RVD may I give you a tid bit of HUGE advice, everyones future is uncertain, live in the moment and all is well. 💪🇺🇸👍🌴✌
I do love my sweet, sandy Baja!
Such a wonderful adventure! And such a beautiful video. To think that you had all of that coastline to yourself. Amazing!
It was such a magical spot
Loved this adventure! So cool!!! Thanks for sharing with us.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ryan, your journey has been beautiful and I've enjoyed watching it.
I appreciate that!
Thank you, Ryan.
Another awesome adventure manin!! Inspiring as always, muchisimas gracias 🤘
I enjoyed the series from Baja thank you! I got out today and rode my mountain bike just over 14 miles. Old railway turned into a biking and hiking path. Granite basin area it's called, gorgeous! I really enjoyed the beauty and took some pictures, and met some nice people to chat with. Thanks for the message to "Get out there" Ryan! Glad I did today!
Sounds like an amazing day!
Congrats on finishing the Baja DIvide Duzer!
Thanks, it feels great!
Love your music choices, Ryan. Another beautiful vid. More power to you and your positivity.
Thanks, I put a lot of time into finding good music
Thank you 🧡
Thank YOU!
Ryan: Thanks for taking us along on another epic ride. One thing I noticed from your drone footage was how green the native landscape was. Ride on brother.
It’s kinda surprising to see all the green amidst a desert landscape. Southern Baja is more lush than the northern sections
Ryan, thank you so much for sharing these Baja videos! So inspiring!. These videos are my weekly therapy. Thank you.
So glad to hear it!
I’m thankful for you and priority for making the 600x it’s the best bike ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉
Thanks, my man!! Psyched to see you again this summer
@@duzer we’re gonna have so much fun this year
Love your content, Ryan. Love your energy! And you HAVE inspired me!
Love hearing this!
Love these videos. Good food and good vibes
Glad to hear it!
Great series, thanks for taking us along
Thanks for following along
Chihuahua Fest 2024! Don’t worry Ryan. We aren’t burnt out at all. Keep ‘em coming.
I promise MORE CHIHUAHUAS
Great adventure RVD! Tks for sharing!!
Everyone I know has had an introspective period during their career. I am glad you could share your thoughts, and please keep up the great content!
thanks, this adventure was good for my soul! Feeling recharged
Beautiful footage man, thanks!
Thank you
What a great trip!! I enjoyed it tremendously! Thanks, Beans! Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it!
That view at the last campsite…that’s how you know your little corner of the world is doing just fine.
I agree! It was spectacular
Muchas Gracias for the beach reflections Ryan.❤😊
De nada ;)
Keep doing you, Ryan, and we will all continue to watch and enjoy your videos! Another epic adventure in the books! :)
You're the best! Thanks
Yay! Congratulations, Ryan! What a fun loop that was. 😀 🙌
Yes it was! Hope to see you soon
Great journey of life. Well done 😊
Thank you! 😃
Congratulations on taming the beast Ryan, what an amazing effort👌Another fantastic series, loved every minute of it👍I told you last Sunday I was heading out on a long ride on Monday, I ended up doing 110 miles and had gearshift problems at almost 100 but made it home no problem😁I will be out again tomorrow with a new shifter cable fitted, already tested it with a 50 miler on Thursday😉Off to watch John and Mira now😊
Right on! That’s a beast of a ride. Happy trails (and no shifter problems)
@@duzerThank you Ryan😊

Great episode - the swarm of dogs was heart-warming. Keep doing your thing RVD 🤗
Those little rascals were so funny!
Every video has something new! Along with something great and consistent as well. Always love seeing the adventures pop up! Thanks for doing a great job documenting them! See ya at Ragbrai!
Thank you!! See you in Iowa
Ryan, keep on cycling. Thanks!
You know it
Another amazing adventure! So you got a ride down from a friend, but how did you get back home? If you flew how did you find a box to pack up the bike?
I flew! Brought a box down with me. But lots of bike shops in the area have boxes
Thanks for the inspiration. I wan't to get out there now. But here in Sweden it's very cold now. I will try make a video next week in the winter cold.
I bet it’s still cold up there, but spring is near!
It never gets old amigo, keep em coming 👍
That's the plan!
Baja rox!!,hope to ride there someday!As always Rye,your videos bring joy to me,& have so for 5yrs,I reckon! Peace my man!!😉✌️
Hi Ryan, have you ever considered using earplugs during the nights you spend next to noisy villages ? Is so and still don't wear any, why don't you ?
Another suggestion: I would find it fun if you forgot (on purpose) your electric razor during a series like this one. We could enjoy witnessing your beard growing day after day.
Thanks for all your inspiring videos.
I use earplugs when it gets really loud, I always have them with me. I’m not a fan of facial hair, sorry ;)
@@duzercan you fix a tubeless flat with ear plugs? Seems like it would coagulate the sealant.
Great series, as usual. And I see you’re creeping up on 200k! Well done. Onward!
So close!
Thank you kind sir
You're welcome
Just ordered my 600x. Love your vids man! Jason~
Right on!! Enjoy your new bike, you’re gonna love it
Keep it up RYAN we love your videos
Thanks so much
