How long do you tour? and what things do you take (tent, tools, etc)? what about the type of food? Im really interested in doing something like that myself, just don't know how to start.....

This particular tour was 4 days and 110 miles long, on some very demanding terrain. We stayed in 3 different hotels along the route. As for food we indulged in the local cuisine as much as possible (whenever we stopped that is). When on the bikes we carried energy bars, banannas, & lots of water, but there are so much fresh fruit & water in abundance on this island that we didn't have to carry much in the way of food.

Subscribing to your video's. Maybe you'd like to return the favour?

I'm so jealous! But keep it up! The world needs more cyclists (and amazing videos like this).

This video inspired me to make a video of one of my own bike rides. It wasn't a bike tour, though, and it's not nearly as cool as your video. But check it out, if you want. It's on my page.

Thanks for posting!
