Biking 5300km Around Western Canada at 18 

I watched the entire thing and it was worthwhile. Thank you! I was impressed with the caliber of young man that you are--not one bad word, no swearing, nothing suggestive. Your parents and you are to be commended. In this day, it is wonderful to be able to watch and listen for over two hours to an eighteen-year-old young man and respect and admire you. Thank you! Thank you! What a beautiful country!

Am amazed at how you not only had the stamina to ride your bike all that distance and through so many challenges, but you also found the time to document your trip with video and commentary including drone footage! That had to be a lot of work. Well done Liam, well done indeed.

Liam, you are amazing to say the least! So brave, so young and so wise! I couldn't be more proud of you if you were my own son. Your photography is outstanding and your adventures are an inspiration! Thank you for doing this awesome project and sharing it!!!

Liam, outstanding man, seriously well done. I’m an old man, at least that’s what I see when I look in the mirror.I’ve been on my bike since I was 5 and I’m now 61. I ride full time in Ontario, four seasons and I know how much work a trip like that is. I’ll watch the entire video tomorrow, super impressive man, great job! Rick

Watched the entire video. Beautifully done. Extremely inspirational. The look on your mom's face at the end was priceless. I hope you keep on riding.

Very Big Step at 18! LOVE FROM IRAN💚💚💚💚💚🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍❤❤❤❤❤❤

Wat een schitterende film..........de sfeer, de muziek, de natuur, de hevige winden, de bergen, de beren..............bedankt dat zulke films er zijn, ik heb oprecht genoten. met vrienedlijke groet mr Sytze Jorritsma from Wommels in the Netherland.

I really enjoyed watching your video. It was wonderful sharing your adventure with you. You made some memories that will last your lifetime. I had dreams of doing a cross Canada bike trip when I was younger, which I never did. It is nice to see you follow through and achieve your dream and what an incredible way to start the next chapter of your life after finishing grade school.

Liam, thank you for sharing your journey. I have had many adventures in my life, and am a lifelong cyclist, but nothing like your voyage. I grew up in Edmonton, now living in the states. I hate traffic and the thought of driving on the highway between Edmonton and Calgary sends shivers down my back. I have been hit 4 times myself by cars so I certainly know of the dangers you face. That noted, maybe you should rename this "Bear Run". May you have many more journeys, a true Voyager a credit to your Canadian heritage,

What an adventure, and beautifully documented!

A remarkable adventure Liam with a simple message… Nature is a joy to behold and experience, not least the kindness of other likeminded adventurers you meet along the way. Truly inspiring and thank you for sharing your story Liam. You clearly have a gift for documenting and narrating. Looking forward to seeing many more adventures Liam. Stay safe and healthy 🇨🇦

You are an inspiration Liam. Congratulations on your achievement and thank you for sharing it with us all.

Great video. You are a tough dude!

Excellent video. You impressed me with camping when the bears were so close. Now I want you to go get a haircut! 😂 kidding of course

When you arrived home early, and that voice (so excited to see you) reminded me of my mom's voice on the rare occasions that i was able to visit Idaho from Seattle. It was really emotional for me.

I normally do not watch anything on RU-vid past half hour but your film was compelling. I have ridden some of those roads and places you rode in British Columbia and it is spectacular out there. I think you did an excellent job making the content entertaining specially the highway miles, those are boring to ride and much more to see in a video but yours were quite great. Congratulations in such a great expedition and it is my hope this is not your last one. You have mentioned two things on this journey that stood out to me, one , was meeting the Japanese fellow who at 81 is still riding his bicycle and seen this world, two, regarding when you get older, this trip is really going to mean so much....I think at your young age, you are already getting the fibers for the blanket for the winter of your life...as a middle age man, I did not discover the power of bicycle traveling ad exploring until I had decide it bicycle racing was too expensive and too futile to keep pursuing....I can't tell you how much the memories I keep accumulating with bicycle traveling fill my soul , my existence and tell me that my time is the most precious commodity I possess and now that I am getting older, I do not relinquish it to anyone or anything that is not worth while. Sorry for the long comment but I think your adventure is nothing to undermine and to extremely admire. Cheers and keep exploring....

We were waiting to see what you were up to this summer! You have accomplished what very few people have hope to do! Way to go!!! Some stunning footage! 15 % grades...crazy!

Great job! I used to do bike touring ages ago, so it was great to experience it with you like this! I now motorbike camp from Southern BC to the Yukon every couple of years and it was also great to see that again! Thank you for all the work you put into sharing this!

Amazing job. You received an amazing amount of what Ryan VanDuzer calls trail magic. We have found in our travels that there are a lot of really good people on this planet, although the media would have you believe different, you have now experienced that first hand. If you approach the rest of your life with that determination you will go very far. Looking forward to more from you. Waves high from Ontario.

Very impressed liam. You did it the hard way, camping then cycling. I've seen other similar epic canadian cycling journeys, nothing to match yours. The other one I saw was some canadian who thought he was french. He had an easy ride, he spent most of his time in motels or staying with friends or relatives. You done it the hard way. Amazing , best wishes from Liverpool u.k.

That was absolutely epic ! The quality of your filming ,the editing,the sound ,your presentation, you are a natural and you made this an easy and enjoyable watch .🎥🚲👌🇬🇧🇬🇧

Great video man. What a trip to travel up in Northern Canada. Interesting route and dialogue along the way. I'm sure you'll always remember this trip.

Incredible Journey and beautifully documented. I felt completely blessed to be able to watch your travels on your bike Liam. Thank you.

Really enjoyed your entire bike trip, loved your photography. I have been to most of the places you visited. So it was a reminder of the many beautiful spots western Canada has to offer. Thanks for the memories!!

I watched the whole thing. I’m a road cyclist so it was amazing to see your video. Also to see my own province (BC)and others from a bike perspective. Well done. 👏Thank you!🇨🇦

Well done and I'm not even half way through. It's inspiring to see a young man and his passion, keep it up Liam!

Amazing trip you took !! My wife and I could not stop watching the video .Hats off to your willpower to do this trip.Such an inspiration to watch. God bless you

Nice watching our ride 🖐 Stephan from Sweden

Amazing William, such a remarkable achievement for a 18 year old lad. You are truly an inspiration for other. Keep up the good work, really looking forward for more amazing content like this.

Awesome journey very well documented. Thank you for sharing.

Liam. What a moving video. The simple beauty of adventure was so well captured in this. Thanks for sharing. Congratulations on this achievement.

Dude the production quality on this video is top notch. Deserves WAY more than 10k views. Congrats on your trip! See you on the road!

You capture the essence of a trip like this in an inspiring understated way. Somehow you managed to take me back in time to the days when I did a similar trip. Good on you!

Way to live life man. You’ve got an amazing future. The video is excellent and inspiring. You’re seriously mature

This video shocked me, you’re a champion, congratulations. Greetings from Medellín Colombia.💪🚴💪

You are a very Brave MAN and best role model for all those wasted kids in Canada. Also you are getting more popular in other side of the World "IRAN" 😀

Well done you. I am hugely impressed by you and you should be very proud of yourself for what you have achieved. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I really enjoyed watching this. These are memories that will stay with you for the rest of your life. Never lose the curiosity to see what is just beyond the horizon..... everyday will bring something new and exciting.

Just thru the first hour. VERY IMPRESSIVE Liam!!!! You are an inspiring young man. Love your sense of adventure !!!!

Thank you for sharing your trip, it looked absolutely amazing and you have inspired me to think about bigger adventures

🚴adventure! love it... just finished watching it!

Well, ya, that was pretty cool. lol Seriously though, nice work man. A true inspiration. It’s been the highlight of my week watching this. Looking forward to seeing your next adventure 🤘🏽.

What a compelling video! If you can do this, you can do anything.

Amazing trip. Enjoyed every minute of it. I admire your determination to bike every day no matter what the weather was doing. It was dangerous too with all the bears around. Thank you for the ride❤️

I live in Florida and saw the video and watched the whole thing. I am proud of you at 18 that you did this. At 64 I can tell you that what you do now you will always treasure. Your parents must be so proud of you. What model Fuji bike did you ride? Please post more adventures. Just think already 55 thousand people have shared your ride!

Fantastische uitdaging. Geweldig gedaan!! Greetings from the Netherlands (Europe)

Wow. You went so far each day. With broken bike and wind and rain. I was so impressed. But those cars and trucks next you. Especially in the rain! Yuck. Great job

Great journey!!! Thanks for sharing

Hi Liam, I had to reply to @user-is8ze as he said just what I was thinking. You are to be congratulated not only for your accomplishment of the challenges of such a spectacular ride but also for being an amazing young man> I am so happy to have found your video this morning. I wish you all the best for new and exciting adventures. Richard in Cody, Wyoming

Amazing video, truly inspiring.

Seeing you makes me so much better having a Catrike Dumont Trike, sitting back and enjoying the ride is what's it about.

Oh man! I flew from India to Vancouver to cycle there and had some of the best encounters with the loveliest and most helpful people. Also encountered the forest fires on my way to Jasper, Alberta. On the way, at Revelstoke I stopped by at The Yogi Bear cabin. And at Hi Jasper hostel in Jasper. Loved every bit of it and loved the most helpful, kind, sweet people of Canada.

Amazing ride bro, the background music was good, good content, was focussed the whole way Gotta respect the land bro, never litter, fk all those who does, you seem like a solid guy

Love your video! Please keep riding and sharing with those of us that can only experience a trip like that through the power of others, RU-vid and indoor cycling. Stay active, happy and safe!

25 seconds in and I subbed. You are a legend dude I will watch it all. Love your voice and how this is starting, this is your purpose don't stop.

Freedom is essential 💪 respect to you from wales uk

Outstanding! Couldn’t fall asleep? Should have gone out back and pitched your tent…😆. That for taking us along!

inspiring, i look forward to seeing more

William (my grandfather's name) He rode his bike on country roads (10 miles per day) until a week before he passed away at age 94. Your journey reminded me of him. He spread his riding out over a lifetime (10 miles at a time), you did yours in weeks.. :) Thanks for reminding me about the challenges and Joys of riding. It's quite an accomplishment. If you get down into the states (Oregon) reach out, i have room to host. Cheers

A good vibe video if there ever was one. A trip to remember for a lifetime.

Liam, this is amazing! You are an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your incredible journey.

What an amazing adventure you undertook at such a young age and definitely one you'll never forget. The scenery from start to finish is outstanding and you really showed your country off. I'm sure whatever you choose to do now you will excel at. Very well done.

Inspiring. Bravo!!!

Great job!! I followed along your progress and enjoyed every minute. I’ve done most of it by motorcycle but not by pedal bike. Guess I need to do that now. Definitely would have hosted you in South Edmonton but you just started your day. Thanks again.

Incredible! Good for you! Take this with you for the rest of your life!

great work and accomplishment!

nice video and best enjoy views

I truly enjoyed your adventure and I'm very proud of you. I didn't start bike touring until I was in my 30's. I did thirteen years, 13 states and part of Canada. I wish I would have started when you did, you are a lot more flexible. I hope you continue on some level the rest of your life. There is nothing like it. Thanks for sharing.

that was a fantastic trip!! thx for sharing it with us... it was a true ride along!!

Wow man... I have no words

Warm greetings from The Special Territory of Yogyakarta, Indonesia, Liam. Keep safe. 😊

Watched the entire video in one go, thanks for sharing your amazing adventure. Such an inspirational trip to undertake at 18 yrs old! 👍 Respect! 💪

Well done lad .enjoyed that trip.

Wow.. Be proud of yourself for that amazing accomplishment!! Not many teenagers could accomplish that kinda of trip solo!! I very much enjoyed your video.. Thank you for sharing!!!

respect to you at 18 to do such a trip....am 66 years old and in summer take long distance trips...last year London to Nice...great way to see a country..thank you for share stay healthy

Such an inspirational trip. I am sure you inspired so many others to take the step forward to do a bike tour self contained. I am very happy that I found your chronicle included in my newsletter from Adventure Cycling Association. Thank you so muchfor sharing it and congratulations Liam. Brian M.

Way to go!! Awesome!

Very well done

Incredibly Inspiring Movie Phenomenal music choice

I enjoyed watching this so much I think you did a fantastic job. Not too much talk beautiful scenery and your choice of music was fantastic just a totally enjoyable experience all round. Well done I hope you post more videos in the future

Liam, what a great adventure. Great video. I always loved bicycle touring adventures

awesome my dear friends

I’ve been binge watching bike packing vids from around the world, then this pops up "Biking 5300km…; Abbotsford-Yukon-Winnipe"'. That caught my interest. Wow, impressive! With such a nonchalant presentation. Turns out your St.Andrews home is less than 10K from our home. So far my favourite channel is Lost Than Found; a Korean Canadian couple making videos about bike packing in Korea. Fill up the Korean Bike Passport to get the grand slam medal. ~4000km of bike paths.

That was one amazing video. Awesome! You had the time of your life. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful experience. Great job!

"So yeah".. - Great video man, way to make that long trip happen.

My husband and I watched your entire trip , very inspirational for the young generation. Good for you!

Awesome video.

Awsome bro you and all those who have the adventure to go it alone and bring us with .thanks

Remarkable. Really enjoyed watching your journey. You'll remember this for the rest of your life. Very inspiring!

Congratulations, nice job! The video is quite long, but it is so pleasant to watch with beautiful landscapes and nice soundtracks, and the way that it was created and edited is very cool. His narration is professional, very informative, inspiring, and interesting as well. I am a man in the 50s pedaling a few miles a day as a workout and to go to the office. Cheers from Brazil!🇧🇷

Hello nice take care

That's really cool

Great review.😍

Hi Liam, U are an amazing guy at 18, very rare. Also yr fitness is awesome. Keep well. By the way I am from India. Thanks n good wishes.

Amazing trip - congratulations! The bison herd crossing the road is unforgettable footage. There is something addictive about travelling at bicycle speed, under your own power, carrying everything you need on the back. Hope it's the first trip of many for you - there are so many places in the world to see, and most are better seen on a bike. 🙂

amazing video

WELL DONE.A great start for your young life.

Thank you for sharing your bike journey.That was a huge adventure.Salute...

Awesome video !

Well done , great video.

great job man!
