35 years ago when I was 35, I took a 1 month vacation from N E Ohio to Southern California-just n of the Golden Gate to Lassin area and back zig zagging all the way. Thanks for taking me further north. Missed n California, Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. All the other 48 were on motorcycle at Motel 6's and KOA's. Pulling of the roadway is so much easier on 2 wheels. 👍👍
What a difference 35 years make🙃
I too used to bike-pac long before they called it adventure biking. Sleeping bag, tent, backpack bungie'ed to the tank and seat. You beat me though. I only did the western states. I wouldn't trade those memories for anything. You see the world different from the back of a two-wheeler. You're in it. Not looking at it,.... if that made sense. Cheers.
I used to travel that alot. I lived in Garberville. Mom used to take me Clear Lake
Whem I came back from 'NAM in 1970 I was 21 years old and I spent several years hitchhiking around northern Cali and southern Oregon. Great places and great times and great people. From Fort Bragg, Mendocino area to the Redwoods . . . Medford, Grants Pass to Mount Shasta and Redding it seemed like paradise. Can't believe how built up it was around Clearlake area. Glad I could enjoy it before it became what it is now.
Enjoy your travel videos so I don't have to go there !! Keep up the good work Russ
Love the adventures! Traveling in my chair😎
Lived in Humboldt ✌🏽🫶🏽 love NorCal
Me too! Garberville /Whale Gulch... Loved living up there!
@@beverlyrea5713 wooo hooo!! I was up in New Harris but have lived in Honeydew 🍈 Arcata n Trinidad also plus a few more places , moved to So. Oregon but will be back soon 🔜 😅 ever run into Bigfoot? 👣
@@browndwarf4200 Yea!!! At the Bar!!!!!
@@beverlyrea5713 😅
I'd look for Bigfoot while collecting rocks..
Tinkering away. @@browndwarf4200
The Redwoods, both coastal, interior, are humbling.
gratitude for the beautiful videos of this wonderful land USA
Used to be a great concert venue at Clearlake. Saw Jeff Beck/BB King co-headlining. Phenomenal!
Knockti?
@@jimmbo2 , I thought they were closed! Looks like they're still hanging on...I'm not sure how well.
@@alexvinson7373 It has new owners now. Hope they do well.
Hello Russ! Just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy your channel and your fun sense of humor!! What a great life you seem to have.
My husband and I travel up Hwy 1 , I think it was 2006, beautiful scenery along the Pacific Ocean! Absolutely beautiful!! We went up to Grants Pass then came down 80 and went to Lake Tahoe. But, we don’t travel anymore, he is blind, so I travel with you Russ from my Lazy Boy chair! Thank you!!🙏🏻 be safe out there!!🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hey, thanks so much for taking the time to do these videos as you travel. I really enjoy watching. I'm a new viewer and have already asked my sister to watch too. 👍
Many blessings to you for safe travels.
Excellent video, Russ. I love the wood carvings, especially the eagle. The artist is really talented.
When I saw the title I was hoping that you would have gone by m&m camp grounds I learned how to swim there in the early 60's and went to junior high-school in Middletown
Sure brought back some fond memories
At almost 90 now, it's a far cry from my childhood, the trees used to block out the sky!! Logging prevailed for MANY YEARS!!
YOU'RE SO MUCH FUN TO TRAVEL WITH YOU😂😂
He sure is! I love vacationing for an hour or more with Russ, lol!
Yay! Everyone should see the tallest living things on earth at least once.The size is jaw-dropping and smell of redwoods stay with you for life I think - me anyway. Stayed at the koa benbow more than once too. And camping in the avenue of the giants. Lots of summer trips to the redwood empire, Oregon coast and a couple times,... all the way into Canada. Thanks for doing what many of us can't. Another good one here. Cheers. 👍
Another great video. Really enjoying your travels. Thank you for the drone shots, and showing the camp grounds you stay at, It gives me joy to see the places that cant afford to go see at this time. Thank you and safe travels.
I save a lot of gas watching your videos.
True …. Yet hilarious 😁😂🤣💯
Great video..grandfather tree looks mighty healthy 😊 beautiful ....safe travels Russ stay cool 😎

Wow Russ! Cool trip on 101 so far! Granddaddy Tree was great! The E-bike is great too! You don’t have to wear your legs out to get good views and good camera shots this summer! Let’s GO!❤️😀🇺🇸
YAY! Absolutely love this drive! And the Grand Father tree 🌲 WOW ! I’m excited to see the Avenue of the Giants ❤ I’ve always wanted to go there since I was a child ! Can’t wait till the next video 🤠👍
We visited California in 1982, up near San Francisco. We drove South along 101. We went through big forests like that! It was so beautiful! Thank you for allowing us to come along with you! This is AWSOME!!!
Great memories of Benbow, camping, golfing, eating at the lodge! Those days are long gone!
Wow...The river is almost dried up ...😢
❤ wow it is 118 degrees in bhc Arizona❤
I like 👍 your EV bike Russ 👌
Born and raised in the heart of Humboldt’s redwood forests. Love this area. Glad you were able to visit!
Beautiful! I wish I was there instead of hot humid South Texas! I wonder if the drive-thru Redwood tree is still standing. Have fun 🚲
Very cool, Russ! Travel safe 👍
Beautiful country and mountains❣️The California Redwoods are so so Hugh! I love the smell of pine 🌲. Thanks for sharing!
Russ I Love it when you fly up over the places the you go to just love all the things you see so for up in the air.............Thank-you for having me go with you.............on your journeys...........God bless
I was in Sacramento last March and I had not been there in 9 years. It sure has grown a lot. Checkout Trinidad on you way up North. My cousin lives there. You are heading up my way Russ as I live near Vancouver, Wa.

When visiting clearlake again, you should drive the Kelseyville and Lakeport sides ..way, more beautiful
Love the redwoods!
HEY,HEY, RVerTV, Russ is taking us all along today on another Fun Outting, Too Cool For School. 👍
Thanks, Russ, for your videos. There are therapeutic 😌 😊
I've been here in Sacramento for forty years and it's not gone the way I would have preferred.

This winter I will have time to watch. Can't wait
Catch and release! The fish has too much mercury. Benbow is lovely
love it
Thanks for Sharing!!

Grandfather Tree was huge with 265 feet height and huge base. Thanks Russ, really good video. Interesting bike!
I have traveled highway 1 and been to the giants! I need to go back and go further on the one.

Just awesome driving through these california roads 👌 thanks for the dedication and passion this man puts on the road again Awesome.

For a moment was bit turned around and was thinking you were heading straight home!
Thanks for the ride Russ you never disappoint
I like the fog - cool temps
As always, I just love your road trip videos!
Thanks for the video . I just bought a house here and now will call benbow home!!!!❤❤❤❤🎉
THANKS!
I really do enjoy your e-bike tours. It gives a much more intimate perspective to your travels. Please more in the future.
Never heard of Benbow Ca … haha, I grew up on Benbow St in Covina Ca
Clear Lake has fond memories too! More camping, boating, fishing, we’ve spent our younger years well! Done our RVing when we were younger! Now we’re both up there in age, and can’t travel any more! Enjoy your videos though!
Love the drone work!! ❤❤❤
The drive up highway 1 through Fort Bragg and into the Redwoods is beautiful too.
On the side of 101 is isolated parts of former 101. 10' wide lanes at 65mph,,, those were the days. Visit them sometime.
I drove this road every week when I worked for Ace Hardware, I always loved it!
Did you ever deliver to Cooks Ace Hardware in Sacramento? I worked there for 20 years. Part of my job was to unload the Ace trucks.
@@bradleyr34 sometimes I did. Were you the guy on the forklift?
@@bradleyr34 I escaped California I live in Ohio now!
@@TLR5759 yes, that was me. From 1991-2011. We received loads Tuedays and Fridays. What is your first name?
@@TLR5759 congratulations on your move,
wow nice gonna be going by there on tour bus soon
Loving your content.
Your narration makes it what it is . Informative and relaxing.
Makes me realise how small my island is and how big the world is.
Would love to see you roaming Ireland in the sprinter. Wouldn’t take long:)
Love this drive ! Thanks !!
I am holding out hope that drove thru thru the heart of the Redwood forest and will post a video. I also hope you continue north in 101 along the Oregon coast. Loved it the last time you did it. I would definitely watch video of that.
Safe travels
Dave
Hello russ, I hope that this suggestion is not too late but a good place for a beer off Highway one eel river brewery about 30 miles south of Eureka. Try it out. The beer is organic the festival.
Try going through those Redwoods at night with a bit of wind !
This trip was part of our honeymoon in 05. 😊
🎉😊🎉
Hermosos videos. Gracias.
You’re in very familiar territory! I live in Sacramento County, we have some very nice Rv camping resorts, we’ve spent lots of time on 101, even purchased a table made of redwood! Bought cheese in Bandon, Or, golfed, ate ivecteam in Tillamook, spent many night in RV PARKS! So many memories!
I love that part of California. We lived in Arcata when my husband temporarily worked for 3 months in Eureka on loan from his home office in Southern California decades ago. Beautiful places! I also liked the smaller lake (I think it is Blue Lake?) on 16 but near 101. Pretty green blue lake unlike Clear Lake. Cool you lived in Sacto. Russ. Go Hornets!
Now you are in my neck of the woods. Sorry to see you took the bypass and didn't go through Willits where I live. The Redwoods are beautiful.
Late husband and I used to fish and overnight on Cache Creek years ago before they ruined our spot and put in camp ground and rafters took over. We went there for years and itwas alwsys just us and maybe a few other people, no crowds..his family owns 400 acres up in the hills of Guinda where used to deer and dove hunt, he's buried up there..and my heart is in those hills and Cache Creek, best days of my life are imprinted there.
Still a great area. I live in Kelseyville. Have ridden my horses all through the Cache Creek area for years. Did some elk guiding in there also. Where do you live now
Enjoy your content
While on the 101 if going through Lincoln City on a Wednesday - Saturday Stop for lunch at Lincoln City BBQ it's amazing and leftovers are good to reheat later. Safe travels
Lucky guy
Years ago I was visiting a friend in clear lake, there was a little restaurant on the lake that had great food and I remember their margaritas weren't too bad. lol
Now this brings back some memories. My parents and I took a road trip in 1975 through Redwood country, but we were heading south, going from Portland via Eureka on our way home to Phoenix. I remember we stopped at a cool little store that looked a lot like the store at the Grandfather Tree. Wonder it that was where we stopped, or if there are other little stores like it
The carvings are amazing. They do bears at the fairs here but nothing else.
Gifts are out of sight now😢😢😢
You were literally 20 minutes from me when you were in ione
seeing redwoods is always nice / and anyone that doesn't know this is free and easy if your in area.
thumb 👍
When you ride your bike ... wear a helmet & Bright colors. ✔️
❤❤

Hi Russ!!! Happy travels to you. I'm looking to purchase a good dash cam. Would love to catch bad guys in the act of messing with my car and the others who smack into me in the parking lot. Any recommendations? Great driving videos are important as well.
If you are ever on an international American Airlines flight... poke your head in the cockpit and say hello.
Love your videos and so does my great uncle!
May God bless your year and the next 20 :)

Clear Lake was nasty back in the 70's, the sewage from all the houses was getting in the lake. It was full of algae and carp.
Which KOA was this
Unless you turned off of 20 onto 53, you didn't go through Clear Lake, you instead went through Clear Lake Oaks.
The town is Clearlake (one word) - the lake is Clear Lake (two words). Correct about the turn off on HWY 53 going to town o Clearlake. Nice trip on HWY 16 & HWY 20.
