  • This is an awesome bike trip!

    Btw, what are the names of the songs in your video? Thanks!

  • @mustardfj40 Sorry - just saw this. The songs were taken from the soundtrack to the film `Himalaya'

  • I will get there one day, and everywhere else you've been.  I've watched all 6 tonight and have very itchy feet. Just beautiful - Alisi

    Nice choices of music and really nicely put together. Brought back lots of memories.

  • that was awesome!!! great job on putting the vid together. We did a similar trip except coming down from Pang Pass we couldnt see Everest at all. Thanks for posting so i could see that shot!

    Cheers and Congrats!

  • This is amazing - the sort of thing I'm only wishing to experience and accomplish. Superb documentation and production!

  • Wow Brad,

    Grace sent me your video via Facebook. What an amazing trip. I did the trip in July 07' with my family but we went via 4WD would have been amazing to see it at your pace.

  • Thanks for that Larissa. Funnily enough I met a guy at Base Camp who said `You reckon it was tough on a bike, you should have tried it wedged in the middle seat of a 4WD". Had to laugh...

  • Brad,

    What an absolutely gorgeous video! You are both brave and truly a man of this Earth. Blessings.

  • Brad,

    A truly brilliant compilation. Your photos and journey is an inspiration. These are the experiences money cant buy and thank you for sharing them. Nina

  • mite , u hav done a gr8 job , brave heart !

  • Brad,

    Great video. I saw the link on the thorn tree Tibet boards. Whenever you get a chance, I sent you a few questions on Thorntree. Congrats and hope you have many exciting adventures in the future.

  • what kind of bike are you riding?

  • Cannondale CAAD3. Sold it in Kathmandu at the end. It's covered in black electrical tape and is actually a blue frame with a head shox suspension system

  • Amazing trip and great music! Surely you show us the beauty is in that difference...

    Thank you for sharing your trip with us!

  • Hey Brad,

    Nice video. Thx for your comment on our site of climbing Lhakpa Ri. I will inform Lily our member who spook to you at the trip, she will be pleased to now about this!

  • Thanks Jos - really appreciate it. You can also insert a link to the lakpari site by clicking on the links field up above. I'm sure people would love to see those photos - very inspiring. The difficulty with photos is that they do not capture the cold......

    I have also sent an email to Lily and she has looked at the video as well. I understand that you are all catching up on Friday night and wish I was there....

  • Well done.. The air must be really thinn up there, making the hard even harder.

  • Great!!!! We are going to do the same tour next year. How was the weather like ? 15 minus??? (Celsius or Fahrenheit? HaHa).

    Did you use your regular foto-camera for the videos??? which typ??

    greetings, Rolly

  • - 15 Celsius and a compact SLR digitial camera for the video. The secret is an 8GB memory card which holds about two hours of video.... Glad you liked the vid

  • Brad - fantastic trip and great video. Thanks for sharing with your Harvard classmates. Really inspired me. Amazed to see you only had one flat tire. Greetings from Alaska. Paul Brewster

  • Thanks Paul - and when did you move to Alaska??? That would be a great place for some cycling....

  • Brad, I left Vermont in March '06 - about 5 months after Harvard. Living in Southeast Alaska in State Capital of Juneau in another Forest Service assignment. Would be glad to host you if you ever make it this way. Lots of whales and great fishing. Paul

  • you did well riding your bike up those stairs behind the monks

  • yeah - difficult to hold the camera but the stairs weren't that steep

  • Fantastic achievement Brad.

    Graeme and ESP Team

  • Thanks for that and glad to be warm again...

  • Absolutely extraordinary - I had goosebumps all over my body and tears welling in my eyes - Inspirational, courageous and utterly beautiful. Thank you for sharing this with us.

    You are amazing.

    Love Zia Grace xx

  • Had a head shox so wasn't too bad, though there were days when I wished I had real suspension.....

  • how was touring with a rigid fork on that terrain?

  • coool video.....ahhh the freedom of cycling, love it! :)
