THANKS:
Big thank you to Blackburn Design for organizing the Blackburn Ranger program and supplying me with bikepacking gear, tools and lights. As well as the ongoing support even after the program ended.
As part of the program, I rode a Niner bike outfitted with SRAM and WTB components. Bell helmet and Giro apparel.
Chris Murray Wheelworks - Chris built my initial wheelset and has been incredibly helpful in any and all bike related questions/problems
Johnson Outdoors - Thanks for providing me with Jetboil SOL and I still live out of the Eureka tent (from year 1) while working in Canada
Thank you to everyone I met on the way. You are what truly made this ride an adventure.
Thank you, Georgi from Michigan, Dave and Ethel from Panama and Thom and Betty from Montana.

I don't leave this comment for Iohan, he's gone, I leave this for you. I want to say that this man's adventures and trials on earth haven't been in vain, or have been forgotten. He worked hard at having a decent outdoor life. He took the time to share his adventures with us. He'd have done just fine if he hadn't had medical issues that tormented him until he thought he just couldn't handle things any longer. Despair is temporary, it goes away with distraction, then desire and focus. I encourage all those going through trials to continue another day. Create something with your hands or learn something new. Never just give up. If you're watching this video, you must be a decent person. The world needs you and all the other decent types it can get, and keep! Maine says "Hello".

@@floater81floats37 He was suffering from insomnia. After a while you just get so fatigued you don't feel like you are alive anymore and the days become a struggle. When you are also forced to pause your travels and stay in lockdown that is also very hard for a freebird like Iohan. I don't think his lifestyle made him sad rather there was alot of 'unlucky circumstances' that made his health worse to the point he couldnt bear it anymore. If you would suffer from insomnia you would know, its like you feel the life force being zapped from you little by little. Its a horrible condition. On 19th of august it was a year since you left us. Rest in peace brother.

@@lightningshredder5605 In Bicycling magazine issue #5 2022 there is A 4 page story it is called DID ANYONE REALLY KNOW THE BIKE WANDERER. It sort of filled in the blanks of his earlier life as a child. I recommend it. You are correct his lifestyle and traveling was his source for joy. A place where he could get exactly what he needed. Pure exhaustion. Medicine for insomnia. I hope no one has to know what it feels like, but they could at least understand, he didn't give up easily just because he was sad, he saw the world.👍☮️ when everything you have is taken you can feel there is no point. I wish he found another answer. May he sleep in peace.

Sometimes we have to go back-a-way to go forwards; sometimes its down hill all the way, other times its like pushing an elephant uphill. Every moment of life is a step on this journey. Sometimes you are like an express train in slow motion, sometimes a fish in the flow of a stream. How you manage to get good photo footage while surviving the harshest weather and worst road conditions, I shall never know. Loving all your encounters, 4- and 2- legged. Thumbs up up up my friend.
