Pretty sure he said something about silk road on a Brompton at the end.😂

On an Eerder Metaal Explorer no problem ;-)

Brompton would be too easy 😉 I'd say Strida. Strida would give you more excitement on those rocky landslides. 16 inch one with composite wheels of course. But seriously, Omnium is a really impressive bike. Looks like getting nice, light, titanium build could replace all your bikes and a car at the same time. At least for someone being minimalist.

Oh! Such an amazing story! Thanks for sharing Allan! I’ve wanted an Omnium for a long time, and this has done nothing - NOTHING to dissuade me.

I think I've seen all the movies about silkroad, AMR etc. This is the best! Mostly because Allan is the best. Big love!

You are full of wisdom, your last section speaking of what holds so many of us back and how to move past that was so helpful to me ty.

He'll do the next Silkroad on a Brompton, with the 20 inch wheel conversion kit. Go for it!

What an excellent effort. At least you could load up the cargo bike with goodies. Looking at the terrain I'd go for a fat bike.... with full sus... And a motor 😂 Bravo Sir, grand effort 👏👏👏

Great little film, enjoyed following the race and Allan. Question, did you lose your cleats at some point? There's a shot of you sitting next to another rider with no cleat in your shoe...
