Two days riding around in the Crescent City was total blast. Being there is like breathing American history. Spending any time along the Mississippi River is priceless.

Nice video Diego – Hope all is well
i take it that this was your first time in New Orleans. Great Video!
Exceptional editing. Great production. Fantastic ride!
I certainly enjoy your stories of your cycling across the country. I enjoy them so much I'm wanting to ride my recumbent trike down the Mississippi River trail from Lake Itasca, MN to New Orleans, the 2600 mile trek. it would be my first Cycling adventure. my only issue that comes to mind is my health issues. Robert OKV, OK.
Short and sweet
Visually enjoyable
Your videos are always nice to wake up to and start my day
😊
Thanks!!!
is your bike a lynskey backroad?
#MultiModal ! Love it!
Nice flowing production. Glad it wasn't your bottom bracket. A lot of history there. Take care, Al
Should have included the Patreon footage in this as well. 😉
You made our city look really good! ❤
Love the music, great visuals, thanks!
Busy busy busy.. hustle and bustle of the city.. beutiful visuals ty..
Nice jazz.
do you have a video in which you go over your bike and camping setup?
1) Did you eat all 3 pastries? We have breakfast envy,
2) nice to showcase 😢the city while on your bike because many bike tourist avoid cities
I’ve always wanted to see the river that far south, I used to live by Itasca state park where the river begins and it’s only 10ft wide now I live 3 blocks away from the river in the Twin Cities and its still only about 200 yards.
ALRIGHT, I was sold on this video from the get-go with the jazz music! Thoroughly enjoyed the trip around New Orleans. What was your reason for taking a train? If you like jazz music, may I suggest that you check out a podcast featuring two of my sons called theunconnoisseur . They discuss an album each week. Thanks Diego for your attention to detail as you report your adventure. ❤😅
Love your videos. Keep up the good work
awesome. also, great music!!! that sequence starting at like 0:02:35…yeah, dude. that's the stuff.
what a beautiful and nice town!
What bike are you traveling on
What a fun way to see New Orleans, you can go a little slower and see places most people don’t get to see. Thanks for another great bike tour, Diego! Nicely done!
Amazing! New Orleans is my favorite city and I have yet to cycle there. Hopefully this next trip will allow me the chance to cycle there. Loved it!
