Thanks! It was the first sunny day after a winter storm came through. We got snowed on the day before (middle of June). Started the ride at 32 degrees F :)

You are on it!

Glad you enjoyed it!

I mount it on the front of the bike, using the bolt that bolts the windscreen on. I find that the exact bolt matters. If I place it too high, then the ride looks less stable. If I place it too low, then you can't see as much. Right side is better than left.

How do you know it isn't Dr. Laxin?

public class Cat{ private String meow; public Cat(){ meow = “meow”; } public void moew(){ System.out.println(meow); } }

The method's spelling bothers me.

@@motolaxin2514 why

I appreciate the feedback. Glacier will be next on my list for uploading without music. :)

I did rent a Harley. Would have rather rented a sports touring bike, but the Harley was fun too.

San Juan Mountains are a great place to explore. You won't be disappointed!

I haven't had a lot of experience with Gold Wings, so I don't know if my bike sounds like one. I ride a Ninja 1000. I like the comfort and responsive throttle. The Rockies are a great place to ride a moto during the summer!

@@motolaxin2514 Hell yeah. It was on my way back from Vegas to Houston. I told myself I can not sustain that 120F heat and I40 traffic anymore, so why not take time going north, enjoy the view and cold fresh mountain air! I'm telling my buddies why bother going to the 'dragon', Colorado got everything you could imagine, and beyond!

Never been to the dragon, but I hear (from a fellow Colorado rider) that it is a bit overrated. One of the best rides in Colorado is Trail Ridge Road through Rocky Mountain National Park. If you haven't been on that, I highly recommend it. (I have a video as well if you want to check it out).

All beautiful places! Love Telluride as well...hoping to get a video out of that at some point. I was also surprised by a lesser known gem between Naturita and Gateway. If you keep heading west on CO145 as it merges with CO141, you will run into this epic, red rock canyon ride.

@@motolaxin2514 Oh yeah, west of Sawpit, takes you over towards Moab. I’ve never taken that route yet, but have heard riding over in there is fantastic too. There’s also a stretch if you enter Black Canyon National Park of Gunnison from the south entrance outside Montrose, it climbs thru about 53 miles of twisties, 1,000 ft canyon walls, and finishes north in a little town of Hotchkiss. After about 45 miles had to pull over for a minute to re-group. Those twisties will get to you after a bit! Lol. How long ago did you ride this Million Dollar Hwy?

Are you referring to CO Hwy 92, connecting Hotchkiss to US 50? Haven't been on that one yet, but it is on my list. I love exploring Colorado in the summer. So many great roads! I was on the Million Dollar Hwy this summer. Not my first time, but the conditions were better for filming this summer. San Juans are amazing!

@@motolaxin2514 Yes go east on Montrose a ways, on 50, then you turn left crossing the river, and heading North on 92 all the way to Hotchkiss. Even before you get to 92, you can ride up on 347 to take a peak at some incredible views, one canyon up in there is over 2,200 feet deep! But jump back out on 50 east to Hwy 92 north to Hotchkiss; that’s the gem. One small gas station a few miles shy of Hotchkiss. I found out about 92 calling the park and a ranger pointing out, if you’re on a bike, 92 is your route and keep your speed well under control. Once we made it to Hotchkiss, we turned east and took a beautiful ride on in to Carbondale, then hung a right and took a short ride on into Aspen to spend the night. Next morning grabbed breakfast at Poppycocks, then rode south out of Aspen up and over Independence Pass. That’s some great rides to take, vlog, this summer!

Thank you! Glad you enjoy it. I know I enjoy filming them. :)

Yes, this is also along the coast between Carmel and Cambria. One of the most beautiful roads in the world.

This is California, between Carmel and Cambria.

Mine as well! In terms of 100 mile rides, I would put this at #2. I would put Utah's scenic byway 12 at #1. Both amazing roads. It is hard to find a road/ride that is amazing for 100 or more miles.

Thanks. Twilight produces some of the best footage. It sometimes means that I have to ride back in the dark...but totally worth it.

@@motolaxin2514 yeah and you gotta watch out for the wildlife at twilight for sure

This made me laugh! I am sure the videos are better with beanies. :)

Please do! I appreciate the work you do and I am thankful that you like and appreciate my work as well.

@@motolaxin2514 awesome let us know if you record any other rides near Sturgis 👊🏼📸🏍️

I did record a ride along iron mountain road from the Custer State Park Visitor Center to Mt. Rushmore. There were some nice clips, but not enough continuity to make it to my channel.

Glad you enjoyed it. I know I enjoyed filming it. :)

Agreed. However, it is better if you can get there in the non-summer months. I hit this in June and I had to go in at sunrise to get some decent weather.

Nice. Where do you plan on going? What would you recommend for someone new to your area?

@@motolaxin2514 riding through Germany a bit along the river Rhine. In the Netherlands, go to the south of the province of Limburg in the Heuvelland (hill land) region for a motorcycle ride. Or do a ride over the dikes along one of the main rivers Meuse, Rhine, IJssel, Wall. Don’t do that in the weekend because many dike roads will be closed. A trip around the IJselmeer is also nice.

The wind was a bit strong in this one...the music helps to balance some of the sounds. Glad you enjoyed it!

Glad you enjoyed it!

The video is filmed in 4K and, if your player is streaming in 4K, will be genuine 4K footage. However, lighting has a big impact on what the camera can capture. Towards the end of the video, the sun is setting and the lighting is not sufficient to light up all of the pixels we would like to see. It doesn't feel like 4K at that point. However, in the beginning and in the earlier parts of the video, the 4K resolution is much more evident.

@@motolaxin2514 Yes.

If bet people would love one of your videos on Hawaii!

@@motolaxin2514 hey btw do you have any footage of Idaho roads? Doing a video on that soon

Not yet...but hoping to do a trip this summer.

¡Gracias por vernos!

Love the suggestions! Lolo pass has been on my list and I will probably try to nab that one this summer. I was planning on hitting Yellowstone this summer as well...so I might just check out your other suggestion as well. Thanks for the tips!

@@motolaxin2514 no doubt…. Both are incredible stretches

Thanks for the feedback!

Interesting comment! It is true that there are tradeoffs based on where you place your camera. Personally, I don't like watching videos where the camera is on the helmet as the camera movements are often erratic and unpredictable. For a "relaxing" video, I want the camera movement to be predictable. Since we can see the road and where we are headed, we can predict the movements we are going to encounter. As for the tilting horizon, that is what I like about the camera being on a motorcycle and not on a car. I get a virtual experience of the lean that is unique to our 2-wheeled vehicles. It may not be for everybody, but the moving horizon is part of what I am trying to capture.

@@motolaxin2514 the newest GoPro can automatically correct the tilting horizon. Maybe best of both worlds. Try riding a few corners and don’t tilt your head to keep the horizon level. It’s a lot more difficult to ride those corners. Therefore you automatically tilt your head when in a corner. I can’t watch motorcycle ride movies where the horizon constantly moves.

I ride a Ninja 1000. I enjoy the comfort and performance of a sports touring bike.

Its a beautiful ride. I grew up in Colorado but never really explored it. I am finally exploring it now as an adult. I live in California, but I love taking my bike to the Rockys during the summer months. I want to ride every paved mountain pass in Colorado (which, I believe, is about 60). Just started and have a long way to go.

@@motolaxin2514 no doubt, I’ve ridden every corner of Colorado and everything in between. And still missed some passes I have to get back to. Always enjoyed he loop out of Aspen up to Glenwood Springs. Then west over to Rifle, and north up to Craig, then back east to lunch in Steamboat. From there, took the backroads down thru Oak Creek and Yampa on my way back to Aspen. No traffic, small fun rural towns to roll thru, love riding CO.
