Cycling Vietnam’s scorching Central Coast and Highlands during an exceptional heatwave pushes us to our breaking point. Escaping Saigon’s chaos, we tackle brutal 1,000m climbs, broken chains, and visa scams, while discovering surreal abandoned dragons and the mesmerizing City of Ghosts.

Are the videos getting longer and longer or just me 😂
I am curious to know what camera you use for the most of the on bike filming. Only that it doesn't have the terrible fisheye like view that many other youtubers are now filming in. I prefer your viewing style as it doesn't make me feel sick from motion sickness as I can't watch the other youtubers who use the fisheye style camera lens.
I like the way Mathias ‘moans’
He doesn’t glorify the ride and tells it for what it is.
Nice!
Loving all the videos you guys make. Been waiting for more Vietnam content! Keep it coming
Nice video as usual. Thanks for sharing.
You say rash ? I say coconut oil ! Rub it in the area ! Rash goes away ! !
So happy to see another video from the two of you. I was getting worried that something had happened! I hope everything going on in your lives get squared away soon. Much love for everything the two of you are doing.
You don't complain too much at all. I appreciate your realistic videos and most people could not endure the heat and exertion of tropical riding. It's the best aspect of your videos, they are real. Don't change anything!!
tôi không nghĩ các bạn sẽ đi vòng lên đà lạt. nếu biết sớm tôi sẽ mời các bạn đến khách sạn của bạn tôi ngủ. và mời các bạn một bữa ăn🎉
Do you use padded shorts btw?
Another great video of a place that I'll never visit–I'm glad that you're showing it. I had no idea that Vietnam modernized their infrastructure as much as they have. That heat and humidity would be way more than I can tolerate. And Mathias, I hope that T-shirt you're wearing is not cotton–wear polyester/nylon only. Cotton is an insulator and takes too long to dry. Buy Me a Coffee to come.
You live so much when you bicycle.
Matins is superb when he moans. The best video you guys ever made was the Amsel pass with the lovely old couple at the weather station at the top. The moans from Matius produced so much feeling in that video. It was wonderfu because you guys showed the truth. Lots of love to you both and I know you will have some great memories of Amsel ❤😊
Amazing Tour, great video from a very interesting country. It sure is not easy to keep up with posting and stuff on the road. Save travels.
I love your vlogs guys, you deserve a lot more views! Hope your saddle sores and family problems go away soon.
A giant hole in the midldle of the saddle should be in order for Mathias' bicycle, mine is like that and it keeps my butthole nice and cool 😅
yes, complaining about his pupas…… all the time.
Beautifully shown and narrated.
You are growing thin eat well young lady ❤
Use padded shorts, or stitch foam padding onto your pants. Shape the foam to fit your inner thighs to help avoid friction and sores.
SO fantastic. Cannot wait to ride there. Thanks for sharing your journey!
19:39, we usually burn the rice field for a reason. Field burning typically involves burning straw and leftover stalks after harvest to quickly clear the field, eliminate some weeds and pests, and return some nutrients to the soil using the ash. However, this method also causes smoke and dust, air pollution, traffic hazards, and can reduce organic matter in the soil. This tradition carries over centuries in our country, Vietnam. I like your bicycle touring, looking forward to next episode.
I'm glad to see that you complain about the heat. You're showing the reality of the situation and not sugar coating it for social media.
So good to see you again. Cant wait for every episode. You are amazing! Good luck with your challenges.
Good to see you back with another lovely video❤
You should go to the north west Vietnam it's the best 👌
You need a permit to legally fly a drone in Vietnam, probably not a problem but you should be aware. Technically if you are by mistake flying near government area, they will take your drone from you and fine you.
I'm sure you know but you should be adding electrolytes powder to your water, it's available in all the pharmacy in Vietnam.
Actually I have had 2 couples, one from Germany and one from Holland stay in my homestay who cycled from Their respective countries to Vietnam.
😂, interesting graffiti at 41:22.
Very interesting 👍
I suspect most of the people saying you complain too much have never done a long bicycle tour. It's mostly type 2 fun, complaining is just venting, if you weren't enjoying yourself overall you wouldn't keep doing it.
Don't worry about the couch warriors, you guys are great, relatable people and you're doing a fantastic job! Well done!
woow back again!! cant wait on afternoon to watch the episode.
man, you guys are such a cool couple! Sharing your passion together and exploring the city along!
After living near Hoi An for 6 years, I relate to so much of this video! In the hot times, the middle of the day feels somewhat similar to Spain – everyone is inside having a siesta! 😀
I have done the Lao Bao border run lots of times! It used to be much easier before Covid, but times got hard and the border security (esp in Laos) see the bonus money as a way to feed their family. Not great, but hard to argue when you think about relative incomes.
Hai Van pass is one of my favourite day trips on the motorbike. Much respect for the distances you're covering!
PS: Since the locals do multiple rice crops a year, the burning is a quick way to clear the remnant plants before preparing to plant again.
