I still prefer tarp and bivy for air flow and versatility

What kind of bivy is that and in what climate do you use it? I'm interested in trying out this setup but I've never used a bivy and the ones that are just a second sleeping bag and the ones that have a hoop and look like a very small tent look very different.

gently caress. I've been watching his videos for years, I love how he was able to capture the beauty and tranquillity of the vast landscapes he rode through, but also the way he interacted with strangers and his positive outlook on life. His "See the world" series is so different from other bike touring videos and, in my opinion, much better for it. His channel is really my favourite youtube discovery ever, I'd recommend it to anyone even remotely interested in this kind of travel. May he rest in piece.

I'm also interested in the European Divide Trail, which is like 4k miles, but budget is the biggest limiting factor for me.

That name makes me irrationally angry because it's not actually following a divide.
