- Опубліковано 9 вер 2024
- Endurance athlete, Sean Conway, is renowned for being the first person to cycle, run and swim 4200 miles around the coast of Great Britain in the worlds longest triathlon.
Sean lives and breathes adventure, but what makes him tick? Why does he seek to make his life an adventurous one?
So inspiring! I'm 45 and finally going to take my first bike packing adventure solo this year.. cant friggin wait. If I die in the process I'll die happy
Jeff Mcilroy awesome Jeff! Glad you liked the film. May you have endless adventures!🤙
Did you die?
Nice... Where you off?
I have never looked back...Hit me right in the Heart Hard!
Brilliant... Doing what most only dream of.... He was in a rut... Managed to get out of it... And now he's loving it👌
Beautiful.. Skinny ginger kid, forced to take ones own path - no other option to be true to oneself than to be an outsider.
Inspirational. Lovely film.

Maarten van Geene great work!
Now that is a person to be regarded, to be inspired by and to listen to.
A perfect antidote to many of modern societies awful "role models", those vapid Kardashians as an example.

Tormund? Is that why you went through the wall to go backpacking?
HI, I a new subscriber from seeing you on gcn. Think you hit the spot for what I'm aiming at aswell. I've been backpacking last two years and cycling have always been my second nature, so to speak and why not combining those two interests of my mine. Before i've so you I really didn't know what and how/where to start. I didn't know what's best to start with, with a bike "trolly" or bike bags as you do. I really do love hammocking and was planing to start small. We have a lot of trees here in Sweden so that would be ideal starting point for me and maybe later on will be have to go on the ground and converting to a tent. I so you hade a tent on gcn channel but wasn't abel to ready the brand that your are using. I'm sure you have it listed out somewhere, but if not abel to find it on my own, i really would appreciate if you could link it, when and if you have time. Really lf to see more from you and your adventures, best regards from Sweden. 👍
A life like this still requires an income, where does that come from?
Wow
Loved this video. Question: How does Sean Conway earn money / pay for things?
Hi Brian. He earns his living through sponsorship from brands, public talks and TV appearances. I know him fairly well and he works very hard at keeping up a profile that appeals to sponsors. He also works hard at keeping fit enough to do his challenges.
Mind if I share this on Twitter and Facebook?
Minnesota Dad Go ahead! share away!!👍
Chris Mayers Cool!
Share away!! Many thanks :))
Where did you get that nice house eh?
This is great! Where was it filmed?
United Adventure Front it was all filmed in the Lake District, UK. Glad you like it 👍
Cool man! Never been but it's on my list! Looks beautiful. Still too many places to visit in Scotland and may as well take advantage since it's on my doorstep!
United Adventure Front Scotland is amazing and there's certainly plenty to see there! The lakes are amazing too though! Not too far to drive down from North of the border!
Where was this filmed?
guitargirlutube Hi, it was filmed in the Lake District in England.
Chris Mayers looks so beautiful! Thanks.
guitargirlutube It is! it's an absolutely stunning place! you should visit if you can!
thouse legs though
Enjoyable, but the plastic spoke guard on your rear wheel made me wince
wonderful. makes me want to grow a beard and drink goats milk.
I must say. Beardventurers get an unfair advntange
What a load of propaganda. Real adventures are not carried out in spandex or on expensive bikes. What this video shows is akin to a bungy jump.. ohhh ahhh ! Child like... Real adventures are unplanned and dangerous... you rarely know where you will sleep of if you will have enough money to buy food.... I once met a guy who had planned his adventure in the most minute way that he knew every metre of road and river... with food drops and emergency procedures up the yin yang... For all of you... just get out the door go with no destination or planned route... take as little as possible... let life happen... and most important of all, never- ever take a girl... or even a friend... anchors all. From Ivan J. Fitness Southland New Zealand.
Very cool... but obviously the guy has money (inheritance?) to do these things, you don't ride on top end Trek carbon fiber racing bikes while not working otherwise... so to map his advice on existence to the other 99.9% of the worlds population is a bit difficult...
P Harger Hi, appreciate the comment however having got to know Sean pretty well I can assure you he hasn't built his lifestyle around an inheritance or a background of wealth. The reason he rides the Giant bike in the film is because he was given it by Giant as part of sponsorship. Much of the expensive equipment he uses is all through sponsorship that big companies have given him due to Sean fitting the profile of the type of person they are aiming their brand at. He certainly didn't start off riding bikes like that! There are many adventurers out there who have given up the day job and built a career based on their lifestyle choice (Alistair Humphries, Dave Cornthwaite, Etc)
Aha, thanks, I apologize for my assumption, never a good idea to jump to conclusions, as I seem to have jusr proven again... thank you for explaining and I again apologize... maybe I let some envy creep into my judgement... :)
P Harger no worries! I hope you get to enjoy plenty of adventures yourself!
I got a couple bikes including a carbon fibre one but I just stick to the one I got as a teen long ago. If you're really fucking poor like me, like eating out of dumpsters poor (and getting sick all the time, don't do that) you can get everything including your bike and backpack and so on free. I also have injuries, health problems, neglect, depression, and abuse but nothing stops me. BTW you're able to have an internet connection, some electronic device to connect you, and to take time to watch youtube videos... plus maybe you have a car or house or something? Well if you can afford that then you can afford a bike and to feed yourself. Just get rid of the other stuff.
