Video: Cycling Up The Highest Road in the World [EP.5]

June 10th, 2018

In this episode, I ride up Mt. Uturuncu (5815m/19,078ft) which is regarded as the highest road in the world. You can skip to 12 minutes if that’s what you’re here for… BUT this will probably be the most picturesque episode of my two-year trip, so maybe just start from the start!
