Iceland has been calling us for years and finally we set out to explore. From the airport down south we cycle upwards to the remote northern Westfjords. Immediately the landscape is captivating and adventurous, with fields of lava and volcanos. The fjords are big, otherworldly and we wonder what it would be like to grow up here. Maudi celebrates her birthday in the backcountry and we get a big scare when have to cycle a bit of the ring road we were desperately trying to avoid!

  1. Iceland has been calling us for years and finally we set out to explore. It totally lived up to the hype. Wild, barren, windswept and moody. A different kind of beauty than any other place we toured before. We hope you will enjoy this new series! Let us know what you think about it? Thanks & Have a great day, E&M

  2. Wat een gave video weer! Ik heb jullie kanaal kort geleden ontdekt en nu zo ongeveer alles gebingewatched.
    Ik was afgelopen zomer ook in IJsland (heb rondgewandeld in Thorsmork, en een road-trip gedaan) en het is erg leuk om via jullie ook nog wat andere gebieden te zien. 😀
    Ik verheug me al op de volgende video. Keep up the good work! 🙂

  3. I was leaving Iceland just the moment when you were assembling your bikes at the Keflavik bike station. It was the end of my 27 day solo bicycle trip in Iceland. Holy guacamoly – THE WIND. I just couldn't make the whole ring road because of it. How did you manage to ride with a smile in all this wind and rain all the time?

  4. happy 33rd, thanks guys your editing skills and eye for a shot are awesome, beautiful people in beautiful scenery, great stuff

  5. While on a short tour this summer here in the states I met a couple on a recumbent tandem who had toured Iceland. Hearing stories was nice but seeing it through your eyes really opens up how wonderful it is. Thank you and Happy Birthday to Maudi and her mother ✌

  6. Wow…Good luck fellows…I went in iceland 2 months ago and was raining non stop,I recomand you to visit Gulfus and also Vik…are amazing places…I have been travelling around the world with work…but iceland win my heart.

  7. Enjoy your 33rd year Maudi. I went to Iceland a few years ago with my daughter and we loved it. Can I ask a question about your bike, what saddle do you use? Thanks

  8. Boa tarde. Uma pergunta que tenho curiosidade e até me sirva em viagens. O que supre vocês, qual alimento usam para se nutrirem de proteínas?

  9. I'm so stoked for you guys to be hitting Iceland; I've seen some vids from Bikepackers doing ridiculous trips that weren't quite what I was looking for, so it's great to see there are reasonable bicycle touring options in that beautiful country!

  10. Happy Birthday to Maudi and her mother, and yes You inspire me. thank y'all for such a wonderful channel, it really takes me away and makes me feel like I'm on an adventure too. Thank you.

  11. I am not so much interested in bicycles but your video is really interesting and natural looking footage of your journey makes it a really nice experience to watch. It must be a fantastic feeling to ride without any engine noise just the sound of nature.
    What a dream destination, thanks for sharing your journey or adventure.

  12. Always been curious about what it's like to cycle in Iceland! I've heard that it can be quite tough, but it's nice to see that you guys seem to enjoy it a lot 🙂 Iceland is definitely on my bikepacking / hiking list. Thanks for filming your journey!

  13. These guys are really inspiring! For me, at least. Thanks to them (also) I've done my first long solitary trip this year from Italy to Turkey. I'm so thankful to you, guys!

  14. 💜*:•✰-:**:•.-!! Native NY'r high level cyclist. For me I have balance. Growing up w/rough surroundings taught me many many lessons; equipped for life's debris no matter where I ride to. For that I am very grateful 🙂 Thank you for your incredible videos. fr Tiger-Balm and Chandra; just 2 hep cats riding it out til the end (of this age).

  15. hppy belated birthday dear
    im 19 and plan on doing something similar for my future
    hope ill find a likeminded husband or be able 2 change him to try a trek like this with me

  16. Love to go there but I'm trying to avoid flying now so unless I happen to sail there when I get my boat it's not going to happen. I don't drive which is great for the environment but one flight is like years of driving, can't do it anymore, not just for fun anyway.
