travels to watch all three seasons for
this list we’re ranking the craziest
strangest most fascinating and most
beautiful moments in tough rides which
sees Canadian adventurer Ryan pile
motorcycle across China India and Brazil
number 10
surviving the Rohtang pass the Rohtang
pass translates to field of corpses and
it’s safe to say this isn’t the most
well-designed trail to take a motorcycle
on on the fourth day of the India trip
just outside the resort town of Manali
Ryan and brother Colin arrived at this
infamous pass a narrow one-way road that
straddles mountainous cliffs 13,000 feet
above sea level to make matters worse
the brothers attempt the trail in rainy
and foggy weather conditions which
create slippery mud and reduces their
visibility luckily when they emerge on
the other side the scenery shifts to a
stunning green landscape with blue skies
and most importantly straight clear
roads number 9
the Pantanal lookout on the last legs of
the braziladventure Ryan makes his way
to the Pantanal a wetland region of
western Brazil he gets out of bed before
sunrise and heads out to meet with his
guide is this where we go to watch the
Sun Rise yes the to travel along a
narrow wetland path towards a lookout
the area boasts an incredibly diverse
ecosystem and we see Ryan and his guide
encountered bizarre birds taiga Hetal
tiger heron caiman and the sounds of
howler monkeys this all the monkey
we’ve seen more wildlife in five minutes
in the Pantanal than we saw in two weeks
in the Amazon this is wild
from the lookout they watch the sunrise
over the beautiful sprawling wetlands
according to Ryan’s guide in this area
alone there are over six hundred and
twenty five species of birds and over
100 species of mammals number eight
tasting Darjeeling tea that’s freaking
awesome on day 40 for our intrepid
travelers make their way to West Bengal
after an arduous trip up the east coast
of India once there Ryan and Colin head
to the Makai body tea estate which has
been producing the famous Darjeeling tea
since 1859 the tour begins with a
beautiful scenic overview of the estate
as the brothers watch workers go about
the harvesting process the cream of the
crop is their Silvertips Imperial tea
it’s blood only on full moon nights only
on 4th that’s gotta be a lie you can’t
can’t say stuff like that that’s once a
month guys once a month we get eight
plucking so I hardly make a thousand
kilos of that it’s India’s most
expensive tea sold for a whopping nine
hundred and thirty nine US dollars a
kilo
number seven arriving at the Mount
Everest base camp when both bikes need
repairs
the brothers are stranded in Lhasa while
they wait for new parts to arrive
creating a big setback in their journey
finally however once they get their
bikes back up and running they’re
finally able to make their way to the
Mount Everest base camp upon arrival the
brothers are greeted with a picturesque
view of the beautiful mountain and the
rocky barren terrain that surrounds it
although they spend only a short time
here this moment marks a major milestone
in the trip coming almost 7800 miles
from Shanghai and overcoming many
tribulations along the way number six
the favela tour to kick off his
braziladventure ryan soaks up the Sun in
Rio de Janeiro before deciding to see
the other side of the city his tour of
Rio’s infamous favelas starts on a cable
car where he and his guide witness a
gunfight on the streets below not the
most promising welcome before the tour
begins
yeah welcome to the reality however once
on foot we see the favelas incredible
makeshift architectural structures up
close as the pair weaves through the
narrow densely populated streets and
alleyways
although the favelas have a dangerous
reputation ryan receives a warm welcome
from the people there as the tour is
concluded with a cold beer at a local
bar number five the cottony mata temple
this temple is nicknamed the rat temple
pin for good reason on the tenth day
into the India trip Ryan and Colin visit
this odd place of worship in Rajasthan
the home of over 25,000 rats the
strangest part is the fact that the rats
aren’t thought of as pests but instead
are revered it’s believed that the rats
are the reincarnation of cottony Motta’s
male descendants and followers right the
humans when they die they reincarnate
into rats and rats when they die
reincarnate into humans and this is one
specific sect sect of the hindu religion
that only believes this and as a result
visitors tend to get very very close
this is definitely one of the more
bizarre and unsettling experiences and
tough rides and it doesn’t take long for
both to call it quits and get the heck
out of there disgusting it’s just not
number four touring Xinjiang the
landscape that the brothers ride through
in the Western Shandong Province of
China might be stark and barren but the
towns they visit are anything but the
first stop is a night market in Kucha
where the town’s ethnic and cultural
diversity is on full display they
continue along the ancient Silk Road to
the city of Kush God where the bikes are
fixed by an extremely welcoming group of
locals the city is ancient having been
founded in 76 BC and has maintained many
of its original structures and homes
throughout its lifespan making the
experience the closest thing to time
traveled by motorbike number three
spending a night in the Amazon I hope
you survive the night what do you mean
after leaving the port city of Manaus
Ryan heads deep into the Amazon where he
signed up for an overnight stay in the
jungle he’s quick to meet his guide and
then it’s off for another crazy
adventure the trip begins with the duo
using a special type of ant as an insect
repellent squishing them all over their
hands and bodies they bite they bite
they bite they bite they lash not snatch
them they’re smashing they smash them as
they move through the forest they
encounter a Jaguar claw mark it’s not a
big cut their hike culminates in a climb
through the treetops for a spectacular
view over the canopy of the Amazon
jungle before heading down to build camp
and sip on a homemade preventive measure
against malaria if I don’t die number
two quillon and the LI river after a few
major setbacks including Collins slip
off the side of the road the brothers
find themselves in one of the most
beautiful places of their China trip I
literally thought I was riding through
like
guitar or some sci-fi world arriving in
the city of ghrelin they embark on a
three-hour boat trip down the Lee River
the river bends between foggy karst
mountains and lush green terrain the
brothers encounter wildlife as well as
people fishing swimming and going about
their daily lives we can really see
China’s geographical diversity here
especially after witnessing the
contrasting terrain of the Gobi Desert
and the snowy peaks of Tibet this is
easily one of the most beautiful moments
in tough rides number one visiting the
Vivekananda Mission a tional hospital
and school after a long journey through
the chaotic and disorganized streets of
West Bengal
Ryan and Colin arrived at the
Vivekananda Mission ashram run by
doctors nurses and teachers this
sanctuary of order and cleanliness takes
in thousands of patients and students
yearly performing cataract surgeries for
those in need and teaching useful skills
to the blind donations and revenue from
wealthy patients allow the less
fortunate to get their operations done
free of charge there is a remarkable
level of organization and efficiency on
display as we see head surgeon dr.
misunder quickly moved from patient to
patient
it’s an affecting experience in a trip
full of moving moments because just
throwing money at people doesn’t really
do anything but just prolong
the inevitable and I think today was a
real good example of not doing that of
actually giving people the tools to
build it themselves and to keep it
running themselves
