If you have missed the Canadian portion here is the first episode: • My Solo Great Divide M...
This entire project has been a dream come true. During my time on the Great Divide, I experienced some of the most challenging days on the bike I have ever had. I am really grateful to be alive, and be able to share Episode 2 of my journey with you all.
I would also like to thank everyone out there who took the time to create content like this for me to enjoy beforehand. I now understand what it's like to be running up and down these hills with a camera, when all you really want to do is just get through the day.

Just so you know, I am enjoying these videos lots. You bring an original note in your commentaries. I hope there will be more and have subbed. All the best from Scotland.

Crazy that you walked back up some of those hills just for the clip

Thoroughly enjoying this so far! Even my wife sat down on the couch and watched with me (not interested in YT series generally) so something about your presentation and personality has us captured!

Knowing you did no planning makes the journey more interesting to us!

its really not that hard. there are constant people ahead of you, going both directions. senior citizens are the most common riding group.

Just another adventure-hungry soul here, nosing up to taking on my first big solo bike journey. Feeling inspired and stoked, glad I found my way to your channel! Can't wait for Episode 3, really enjoying these.

As Im planning my first big bike trip, your videos shows the truth of it all, the lonely time and the repetition. It can be scary at times to get out there, but it stills hypes me to go and do it! Love your videos

Loving this! You are bringing back all the trials and tribulations of the GDMBR for me.

That night at strawberry was probably my favorite on the trail! That’s for following along and enjoying some coffee with me.

another fantastic episode. Your nose is sunburnt, need a proper cap ;) Really nice to hear you are starting to enjoy it; I think that it's normal to take a while to get your groove on - I really love the real human emotion you include in your videos. You need to put out more videos though, slowly inspiring me to get back into bikepacking after my shoulder injury. Looking forward to the next video :)

It's fun seeing the Montana portion of the ride in such detail. I've ridden bits and pieces of it, and this is bringing back memories.

I think it’s called finding yourself Murph…to truly understand what you’re capable of,you have to endure,and endure hard! if you’re not stretched to breaking point and beyond in every sense,emotionally, physically,mentally,spiritually, how are you ever going to discover yourself.this is why you chose to do the ride. whether it was obvious at the time of departure or beforehand there’s no hiding from yourself now. immerse yourself and enjoy the journey of discovery.come what may…peace ✌🏻

You rode from Detroit to Banff? Wow! I am from Ann Arbor. Did you say you rode all the way down Fleecers Ridge? I didn’t think that was possible. I’ve heard stories folks have done it, but I have no clue how.

@MoveWithMurph 3 ай бұрын

No I actually rode from Detroit to Glacier but it was back in 2020 on another trip. So funny you’re from Michigan too. I did ride down Fleecer Ridge. Luckily the dirt was in good condition and kinda once I was rolling I was not gonna stop.

Everyone says they won't be lonely, something about doing really hard shit and no one to appreciate it that sucks shit, a buddy who won't turn into a bitch is the only way for me
