We spent one week bike touring Sardinia from Cagliari to Porto Torres, and the island quickly became one of our favorite places we've bicycle toured in Europe. The combination of low traffic gravel roads, great wild camping, stunning scenery, and fascinating archaeological sites made Sardinia an ideal cycling destination.

Such a nice easy vibe in this episode and the drone shots are great. It's amazing some of those Roman bridges are still standing

@BarronFujimoto 2 года назад

Wow. Very cool! I think this is my favorite episode yet. The campsite looked really good. I love the drone shots too.

what an amazing trip you are both having...love the dinner ingredients when it is dark and you do not want to cook. Sardinia is amazing. I lived in Italy for two years and had a girlfriend in Sardinia and it was an amazing experience.

It seems the perfect place for bike touring. It's funny because with your helmets and hats you both make me think of impressionist painters lost in the landscapes, looking for a nice place to paint :-) You're the impressionist bikers! And the music confirms it :-)

Wow, great trip, what a place to cycle around. I hope to get out there this year barring any other virus releases or whatever.

Andrew & Jenny...I am so appreciating the sights and various terrains of Sardinia. Really beautiful. As for Italy and cannoli's, I cant imagine every going wrong with the choice of a delicious cannoli. Enjoy and ride safe...Ted

@RollingExistence 2 года назад

True, cannolis are always a good choice! Glad you enjoyed the video 😊

@petesig93 2 года назад

Great video of a lovely island. Mind you, if you enjoyed that, you would absolutely LOVE the west coast of Corsica! One week was a bit of an express run. You must be on a tight schedule. When we toured Sardinia we were not so keen to explore such tiny gravel back-tracks. We were there in May but had an unseasonal bout of rather bad weather with some days of gale-force NW winds. We faced some limitations in Sardinia on our itinerary as well and took the train from Cagliari to Macomer (east of Bosa), but we still spent two weeks on the island. A whole day in Cagliari, three days looping around the far SE corner, then that great road along the west coast to Alghero, but with horrendous headwinds. We spent two nights in Alghero with a boat cruise to Capo Caccia. Near Fertilia is one of the best, easy-to-access nuraghes, the Nuraghe Palmavera. We also travelled along the north coast via Castelsardo to Santa Teresa Gallura. I would love to get back there and explore some more; the island really does merit at least three-four weeks to do it justice.

@RollingExistence 2 года назад

Sorry to hear about the bad weather! But still sounds like you had an awesome trip. I think we got very lucky to have such clear skies in February. We would definitely like to visit Corsica in the future and also see more of Sardinia. Unfortunately with our Schengen visa time limit we have to make some hard choices about where to go and how long to stay.

@mariospenard5125 Год назад

@lostthenfound 2 года назад

The Kind of ride I wish I had on my tour right now! In Panamá you are forced to ride on the highway, I know Colombia has more to offer. Cheers!

@Bg563 Год назад

Thanks for the inspiration. Just finished my ride on the east side of the island after coming down Corsica. I feel you on the "aggressive bushes" did some more off-road areas that were part of the trans sardinia and got a total of 6 flats, haha. Thank god I had tubeless.

@RollingExistence Год назад

Awesome! Hope you had a great ride apart from the shrubbery - it was impressively sharp!

@christiankilleen7626 2 года назад

Hi guys. I think you have your tour playlist in the wrong order. Currently the newest ones start at the top meaning if someone were to press the button to 'play all' it would play them from new to old telling the story in reverse. I just thought you might want to know and do a quick reorder.

@RollingExistence 2 года назад

Thanks for bringing that to our attention! We'll do some restructuring of our home page soon 👍

@rheinking2754 2 года назад

Loved that noisy metal bridge crossing by Jenny at 7.25 minutes juxtaposed against the otherwise super chill-style background music and thanks for the pig farm warning - and if you don’t mind me asking how do you do your audio? I don’t see any microphones. Yours very truly the one and only RheinKing!

@RollingExistence 2 года назад

Thanks RheinKing!! We have a few different microphones depending on the conditions. If it's raining, we have to use the built in GoPro mic, which isn't great. Most of time time we shoot with the GoPro Media Mod + DIY dead cat. When it's super windy, we have a Rhode Lavalier lapel mic for talking to the camera. It's pretty small but we try to keep it somewhat hidden.

@Luigi13 Год назад

Sardinia reminded me many years ago when I was there touring in a whole different setup. I remember some of the towns in which you guys passed through. I notice that you both seem to have a good pace with your bikes do you have internal gears like an enclosed hub? They also look like gravel bikes. Great tours of Europe, cheers.

@RollingExistence Год назад

Yes, we both have Rohloff internally geared hubs. They've been working out really well for us 👍

@danbergsven6919 2 года назад

Omg this is so good, I'm from Sardinia originally but never toured it on a bike. Thanks for this video. Ps do you buy your music? I'm starting on RU-vid and struggle to find a way to get decent music

@RollingExistence 2 года назад

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! We get most of our music from Lofi Records. It's all free to use in your videos, you just have to credit the artist per the instructions on their website.

@petesig93 2 года назад

@@RollingExistence I must check that out. I just use my own music files, and as long as I am not monetising the YT video that is OK. YT credits the source. But a rights-free source without a $400 per annum fee would be a great thing.

Another place just made "the list"....

@Bg563 2 года назад

Thanks for the video, been kinda binging your other ones as well! I was looking at a route north to south on Sardina and I was kind curious if you guys know of any buses/trains that go from Cagliari to Porto torres with a bike? Also, how often does the ferry run between Porto Torres and Barcelona? Cheers!

@RollingExistence 2 года назад

Glad you're enjoying the videos! We didn't look into buses, but being the two major ports I'm sure there are some options. The only ferry company that goes from PT to Barcelona is Grimaldi Lines, and they do the crossing once a week. That was in February, so they might do it more frequently in high season.
