Coffee Bike World – The Crossing, a documentary series following one founder’s cross-continent mission to serve great coffee, meet local communities, and grow a global network of independent coffee entrepreneurs, premieres July 9 at 5:30 PM PT.

VANCOUVER, BC — After more than two weeks on the road across Canada, Vancouver-born mobile coffee company Coffee Bike World has announced the premiere of the first YouTube episode of Coffee Bike World – The Crossing, launching Wednesday, July 9 at 5:30 PM Pacific Time on the company’s YouTube channel, Coffee Bike TV.

The three-month documentary series, which began June 15 and runs through September 15, 2026, follows founder Vladislav (Vlad) Priadko and his team as they travel through more than 50 cities across Canada and the United States with a custom-built Coffee Bike in tow. In each city, they serve coffee, meet local communities, connect with existing Coffee Bike owners, and introduce the mobile coffee ownership model to new audiences.

“This isn’t a road trip for the sake of a road trip,” said Priadko. “It’s a mission. We built Coffee Bike World around the belief that independent entrepreneurs shouldn’t have to give away their brand, their profits, or their creative freedom just to launch a coffee business. There are now 35 Coffee Bike owners with total of 43 Coffee Bikes in the network — no franchise fees, no royalties, no obligations — just people building their own businesses with support from the community when they need it. The point of this trip is to grow that community by showing up in person, city by city.”

Unlike concepts built around theory or assumptions, Coffee Bike World was developed through more than 8 years of real-world mobile coffee operations and over 1 million cups of coffee served from the company’s own Coffee Bikes in Vancouver before the concept was ever offered for sale. That hands-on experience helped shape every part of the model — from workflow and equipment to service speed, mobility, and what it actually takes to run a coffee business on the move.

The Crossing is also a personal challenge for Priadko: 14 weeks on the road, daily service, daily content creation, and constant conversations about what it really takes to build something of your own.

“I want to be honest about the journey — the wins, the hard days, what I’m thinking about as an entrepreneur, and the moments where I question everything,” Priadko added. “The plan is to share real thoughts and real vision along the way, not just polished moments. If someone watching is thinking about starting their own coffee business — or their own anything — I want them to see the real version of it.”

Coffee Bike World has now delivered 43 fully branded Coffee Bikes to entrepreneurs across North America and internationally, from British Columbia to Florida to Lima, Peru. The company was featured on Dragons’ Den Canada, where Priadko secured a deal with Arlene Dickinson, and also received the Small Chain – Big Impact award from the Coffee Association of Canada earlier this year.

The Route

The Crossing began on Canada’s West Coast and continues east through the Rockies, the Prairies, Ontario, and Quebec, before crossing into the U.S. for a major leg through the Northeast, Southeast, Florida, Texas, the Southwest, California, and the Pacific Northwest, before returning to Vancouver in September.

The team is producing daily short-form content throughout the journey across YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and TikTok, with long-form YouTube episodes beginning July 9.

Coffee Bike World helps entrepreneurs launch fully branded, fully equipped coffee businesses on wheels — with no franchise fees, no royalties, and no territory obligations. Owners keep 100% of their brand and profits, with ongoing support from the wider Coffee Bike World community.
