We crossed paths on this trip. The motley crew on mainly dr650s at the Dargo pub. I gotta admit, I tend to write off big adv bikes but you guys did a lot of the same stuff we did. Luckier with the weather too! And this video production is top notch. Hats off to you all.
Hey GazGaz, yes, I remember the motley crew on the DRs. I smiled at the comment about writing off the big adv bikes..... I can totally understand that, although the group I ride with have put good protection on the bikes, and we don't mind flogging them and dropping them. We even unbolted the cappuccino machine off the back for this ride ;-). Yes we were pretty lucky with weather, and I'm glad you liked the video.
Oh man , that drone footage was outstanding, throughly enjoyed your Vlog.❤️🦘👍
Brent, it was AWESOME !!!
Great editing and Skydio2 is an absolute game changer !
The whole trip was as it was sung in one of the songs: "...and there is nothing to hold us back, we can do what we want to do.."
Well done! Go on! I am looking forward watching more!
Fantastic video Brent. The cinematography, editing and narration made it a really enjoyable watch. This is some of the best motorbike adventure content around! Looking forward for more like this 👍

Brent, your videos are amazing! The VHC is my backyard but I mostly do it on 4 wheels. Just started riding in the VHC recently and now you have inspired me to do much more. Please keep doing what you are doing. Love your work!
Gotta love the Ténéré 700. While everyone is chucking along the T7 is like a little kid plying in the dirt and having fun jumping around, running, and just loving it. No traction control, no fancy electronic, no excessive unneeded weight, and no BS. Just you and the bike on a trail. What the bike does is entirely up to you and your skills, not a computer.
In the best review of the T7 I've seen, the man said that the T7 comes with one major problem from the factory. It comes with a little demon who whispers in your ear to go after and after. The bike just doesn't know where it's limits are at. It really does think that it's more capable that it really is, Poor thing! Seriously though, the bike really is that good. So good of roading it really does make you feel like going faster and faster, and if you don't tell that little demon to shut up, I am sure you can definitely run into trouble. Oh well, no bike is perfect 🤪
After looking at the Honda African Twin, KTM 790 and 890 adventure, and BMW 1250GS and 850GS, Something just told me that the bike for my Central and South America trip would be the T7. Just got mine two months ago. Riding it off the dealer it's size took some getting used to. Tallest bike I had ever ridden. With zero experience off roading the day I finally did take it off roading it felt so good that it gave me a huge boost of confidence. I remembered what the man said about the little demon and he was right on, I had to tell it to shut up a few times.
Hey Yaslina
I Hear you. I now have the Husky 701. If you have bought a T7, make sure you check out Nerb1's channel (that was the guy riding)... he talks a lot about how he has set up his T7.
Enjoy

I'm visiting your channel first time and subscribe instantly by your beautiful airshot... Drone video very live and realistic... Enjoyed alot keep going
Living in Albury, the foot of the high country can't wait to get my Africa Twin up there. You captured just how beautiful our country is.Awesome video thank you for sharing
Australia, we are so incredibly fortunate to live on this stunningly beautiful continent. Your video captured it nicely.
Hi Brent, how glad I am of the serendipity to have run into your channel. Your channel and videos capture the beauty and excitement of adventure riding and your story telling is extraordinary. The riding is technical and not for the faint of heart, which adds to the anticipation of seeing what’s next. It’s fantastic being able to join your rides vicariously and as many before me have said already your cinematography is gorgeous and captivating. What amazing country we live in!
Brent, very nice work, great editing and the Skydio looks like it did it's job. The sheep scene is magnificent. It looks like you guys pushed the limits on the big bikes, good to learn that there was no serious outcomes. Thanks for sharing, can't wait to get out here in Canada.
Yet again, another wonderful story and great video. Nice use of the Skydio 2; I like how you use it to showcase the ride without making it the focus of the video. Well done, Brent!
Love it, great pics and story of a group of mates enjoying each others company. Beautiful scenery!! Have had by GS650s for a little over a year now and need to get onto some dirt track and explore. Thanks for the inspiration :)
Great job Brent, thank you for sharing. You boys certainly had some fun and some close calls, true adventure riding. Can't wait to come out of lockdown and head out exploring.
Mate love it.
I grew up in Deddick valley about 15 mins from the bridge. A great bit of history and river is great swimming in summer.
I still have a scare on my nose from hitting the seat in front of me when a tourist was on the “wrong side of the road” and ran into our car - hard to say wrong side because the roads won’t really even fit 1.5 cards wide!
Was a great childhood and only 15 kids in the Tubbut primary school in the early 90’s with myself and 2 brothers being 3 of them!
Shows the need to be on the left as much as possible and how bad it could have been if he went off the edge- end of the road so to speak!
Honestly fantastic effort with the videos and makes me want to come home from Western Australia and show my kids the great countryside of VIC high country- true Billy goat county!
Next time try visit the old tin and copper mine out the back of Deddick springs farm- was a long time ago I went out there with my Dad and brothers.

Great video to watch just the right amount of dialogue with epic scenery.
Can't wait for more. This is right up there with the best motorcycle vlogs.
Great video work and narration. Twice you had footage of approaching a blind turn on the wrong side your friend was lucky. Hope he learns to keep left and approach all blind turns like a truck is coming the other way
What a great video! Best one yet! Excellent editing style, really told a story of a Great Adventure with mates. Fantastic drone footage highlighted the challenging terrain plus amazing scenery.👍
You always tell such a good story both with your narration and video! Make's me want to get on two wheels and head out of the city. Thank you for the fine work and the fun adventures!
Big heavy bikes on greasy mud is a real challenge. When i see it takes 3 guys to pull a bike out of a ditch...thats a heavy bike.
Wow. Just Wow.
Most Videos don't do the high country justice, but this was a masterpiece. From the pace of the editing, the perfect narration and the tasteful music choice it was like I was riding along with you. I cant wait to head back in 4 weeks. Its also great seeing a group of people using there bikes for true adventure. So much credit taking those big bikes in those conditions.
Thanks Simeon
It was a great adventure, and I love sharing the experience via video. I'm working on my latest video now... After that trip I sold my GS and bought a Husky 701.
I was searching for adventure riding expecting mountain biking content and couldn’t look away. Great adventure presented exceptionally well. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome! It’s nice that you share the route too ! Bets and true biker
Simply amazing!!! Stunning footage and such beautiful country you rode through. Loved the video! Thanks for sharing it!
This is the dream.dirt roads,huge forests ,some friends and the bike and freedom.
Yes, you are right... it's what I love doing. If you haven't seen my video from Idaho BDR, check that out for stunning scenery.
That was great. Thanks for the effort. I've been along a lot of those tracks on my GS's and you have to go a long way to beat the spectacular beauty of the High Country. Thanks again.
Wow! just a superb job of turning a truly epic adventure ride into an incredible cinematic video!
This dude makes some great content. Deserves more subscribers.
What a great ride, amazing landscapes, fantastic cinematography...and oh yeah the narration felt like i am riding with you!
Cheers 🍻
Hats off to you guys Brent. Those are big bikes for the steep trails in the high country. Particularly in the wet. Beautiful footage.. looks like an amazing week
Thank you for sharing your amazing roadtrip. This is what you called the real moto-vlogging. 👍
The red clay is brutal when wet. Beautiful work man I really appreciate your videos and experiences, thank you.
I look forward to your next vid Brent. I reckon yours are the most enjoyable adventure videos going. 👍
Seriously amazing mate. Well done. Your editing is great and the music is perfect!
Brent that was awesome, what a nice trip!!! Kudos for you and your friends!
Enjoyed watching that Brent , well done. We had a group through those same roads a week earlier (in the dry) , hard to believe how much it changed so quickly with the downpour. Cheers
Recently subscribed and loving your work! The quality of the vids is really second to none and I’m amazed at the ability of your drone to navigate obstacles. The DJI Spark I tried a while back would have been long dead in the types of terrain you were riding in. Great to see one of my favourite Aussie cloggers, Nerb in this one. Keep up the great work and thanks so much for all your hard work putting these videos together! I know what it takes in terms of time and I very much appreciate your efforts. Ride safe my friend!
Thanks Crumble, it is a labour of love. Agree with your comments. I've already put one DJI drone into a tree (before the Skydio). It was great to catch up with Nerb, he's a great guy.
What a master piece!
I like the story, the amazing pictures but also the soundtracks and the way of your comments. Not to forget the quality of the final editing. I'd like to see more of that.
Greetings from Berlin, Germany

Hey Dirk
I just got back from 8 days of riding in Idaho, from Canada to Nevada all on dirt through the Wilderness. Give me a few weeks to do the editing and then I think you'll see one of my best videos yet. The riding was incredible and we had a few interesting "incidents".
Great adventure riding video Brent, superb.
Super awesome! It just reaffirms that this is what I want to be doing for the rest of my life! Love from India! ❤️
Great adventures - well narrated and put together with some spectacular drone shots - thank you for sharing. I gotta head down there one day, some awesome country and sights to ride through down south.
Really enjoyed the whole video. Great story. Great filming.
Love you’re work and sharing for us all to enjoy.
your videos are amazing! Its color grading, perspectives, stories make me wanna go out with my motorbike immediately
Thanks... that is the aim of my videos, to inspire more people to do adventure bike riding.
@@brentbat Yes, i live in Hanoi Vietnam, Vietnam has amazing places to do adventure bike riding. Do hope you visit my country someday
Your content is super detailed! Loved the full journey and enjoyed it thoroughly!
Great editing Brent. Youre a real pro!
Thanks Brendon, I may not be able to ride like a pro, but I can have a crack at producing video like one :-). Really enjoyed meeting you and Mark, thanks for being our guides on day 3. Look forward to crossing paths again one day... either in Vic or NSW.
Yeah lift your game @Nerb1. Thanks Brent, nice to meet you guys and ride with you too. The Blue rag footage of me and the BMW crashing looked great too.
@@TheHornetRider1 Nice to meet you too Mark.
Oh mate all that drone shots are incredibly amazing 👍
Great video edition. Smooth back voice. That's so rare on RUclips.
Great video mate. Awesome trip. Nice editing, audio and drone footage. Beautiful! Cheers. 🤙🏻
Fantastic ride, you guys are very daring and very inspiring...Keep rocking...!!!
Awesome video! Beautiful country.
Epic trip. Little bit of everything on this one! Well done guys!
Awesome video Brent, very well done.
absolutely amazing scenery, great trip...
Amazing drone footage.
My sons and I picked up on the poor ‘keep left’ antics before the footage of the accident. Every corner has a bullbat waiting! Glad it turned out ok for you with luck on your side.
Thanks for the video, great footage,. Informative narration
What did I just watch.... Amazing mate 🔥👏🏻 Thank you so much for sharing this. Cheers from Norway 🇳🇴
Oh my gosh ……… sensational vlog …… fabulous drone work
One word.. WOW.
You guys hit a few lumps with those Bimmers , i would think twice about hitting with my EXC 😂 Awesome video!
Amazing Ride,amazing scenery,amazing country!Great video editing too!The skydio is the best tool for us adventure motorcyclists!
Excellent show there Brent. You have a talent for it so keep them coming mate. Cheers
Great footage, Brent. Kudos to you fellas for persisting in that weather!
Thanks 👍
Great vid and tracks mate. Thanks for sharing the GPX files. Im in Wodonga at the moment and will defiantly be hitting some of those high country tracks. Cheers, and safe riding.
Thanks for this video.
The Skydio footage looks really amazing.
the drone capture mades me talk bad words for the awsome capture
You sir know how to edit. Fantastic. Well done to all riders. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦.
That was amongst the most beautiful ride videos I've ever seen!
Nerb1 said it well! Well put together. I know for me a video is well done when I get those itchy feet and want to start planning another trip because of the adventure the video showed. This clip had that in spades! Challenging enough tracks on big bikes let alone with the greasy rain, big adv bikes are more capable than most people think! Aced it.
Great show! There’s a shot from the drone that goes over the trees and ends on a mcu of a ride. That and the sheep shot answer any skydio question of quality. All that filming and editing work came together for a beautiful video.
Thanks Bob. Yes, I love those sweeping drone shots when the drone is changing station.
That drop off when he laid his bike down was crazy.
Yes, it was crazy... although I just got back from the Idaho BDR and I was talkign to rider who came into camp late... He was riding on an 1190 and he went off a 40' cliff.
Well Done Brent 👍 Some great riding got to love the big bikes!
Great editing and refreshing to see an adventure ride with no mention of what bike, and which is better, blah blah blah. Well Done!
In March i was coming back to Melbourne from Jindabyne after a visit to Mt Kosciuszko. I did that same dirt narrow track where ur mate had a fall. I was driving a sedan, it was crazy with no guard rails. First time on offroad, turned off Traction. That fuel stop u had there on the way was a relief for me coz i was running out of fuel. Was hell of an experience. Im glad i did that since it got me to lakes entrance and the gippsland.
That was just awesome. Waiting for more videos like these. Much love from India 🇮🇳
A throughly enjoyable watch, thanks for sharing your journey
I am always looking for good content to watch and inspire me! And I found some 👌 I enjoyed watching u boys take those massive adventure machines places they weren’t familiar with! And your narrating was easy on the ears 👌 but possibly best of all!! A bunch of lads, getting out making memories together, now that’s livin 🤙 cheers Seasonal Therapy
Thanks for your note... Yes, it was a great adventure.
Very well made video, sir! Wonderful places to visit with the perfect ride
This is one of the best motorbike video's I've ever seen. Even had my girlfriend interested haha. Well done!
Please keep it up!
Wow, I know I've hit a high bar when I can engage partners. Unfortunately i still can't get MY family interested :-(
