He is heavier himself, and probably carries the heavier part of their load, so more pressure on the sharp objects trying to get through the tyres.

Tracker showing them now in Anchorage, Alaska, so the transfer has gone to schedule by the looks of it.
Still no podcast update since Singapore though.

Looks like they'll be crossing into Canada later today (their time).

Seem to be more bears than punctures being reported on this leg of the journey 😂

Seems to be going smoothly. Not been following that closely.

They had a completely 'shredded' tyre last week by the looks of it. My only thought is the roads look incredibly boring since they hit Australia, and Canada/US, but you've got to take the easiest route to get the miles in. I'm not so sure my head would cope with roads like that.
I get bored on a one mile straight road.

They are doing well with bum ache... oof. I just wish she'd take the bloody lid off - it's weird, as it's the first thing that comes off for me, can't stand it. I wouldn't be filming 10 minutes later in my room/cafe with a lid on. If she needs it for sponsorship, it could be on the table.
Poor Kyle has a right helmet tan.

Well, I did go out on a training ride, the other weekend and forgot I didn't have a lid on. I wear a skull cap to absorb sweat always, so the helmet directs air flow and absorbs it - works amazingly, no drips. I'd put the skull cap on, fitted shoot to bike and went off. Only realised 5 miles later when my head was feeling hot, touched 'head/lid' - oh no lid....
Get this, I was on a gravel/road ride, and by pure luck, I'd not headbutted a few branches yet - that's what the lid does...
It has to come off the minute I stop though, no way would I leave it on - you look a complete plonker off bike anyway.
