Well, the advice in the video was to simply not ride through snow drifts because coming back through them may be impassable, especially if you're riding alone. That, in turn, can turn into some very VERY long hikes (as was observed by 20 miles of footprints in the video), long rescues, and even emergency button presses, if not worse. However, looking at just a few of the comments and after receiving a few texts from my northern friends, perhaps the advice I've given here is poor advice? What do you think?
As a guy who went solo on a totally iced out forest road on a Ducati Desert Sled and almost got marooned, I agree! Screw snow and ice. Video on my channel if ya wanna watch :)
With my ~30 years of riding experience it is always when you are tired, and worked up, when something goes wrong. That is when your gear will get tested. That said, I was in a very similar situation on the last big ride that we did, and I also geared down due to overheating. Glad you all made it out without any issues.
Here in BC we used to do a fair amount of 4-wheeling in the snow, and I always HATED it. It is like mud that never ends.
Riding snow definitely requires a healthy awareness of your surroundings among other things. I live in the Sierra Nevada so it's a bit second nature up here, but it's still not particularly fun pushing your bike through tonnes of snow.
Good stuff, Tyler!
What? I live in NW Washington. If you dont ride in the snow, you dont ride all winter. Use MotoZ Desert HT tires and plow through the snow like its a dry dusty dirt road. I even towed my buddy on his DRZ-SM with street tires on it theough drift after drift. Its just part of living where I live. Still. Today, 100% of road and trails are snow covered down to about 2500foot level. And the shaded area dont melt until july. I am not giving up 8 to 9 months a year riding to avoid snow. Change to those MotoZ tires I mentioned. I ride a DRZ as your can tell by my channel name. Keep doing what you do. Been a long time follower from back in the early Black widow days. I also have made a set of snow tires....for the truly deep stuff. 1/4×1.5 inch long bolts with 2 nuts all the way through my tread from inside to out. Adds about 5 lbs to each tire. As there are ober 100 bolts in each tire....acts nearly the same as a timber sled...until it gets too deep.
You're BACK! GREAT to see you, Tyler!!! You're an inspiration. That trail looks like a job for my T-Dub.
T-dub rider here!
I learned to avoid snow drifts on Sommellier Pass in North West Italy. Twice. In July. Now I know ;-) Looks like you're fully healed again! Happy rides, Günter/Nürnberg
I would love to ride there, when it's not snowy or wet. Thanks for sharing!
Enjoyed the video Tyler. Hope to get back out there next year and ride with you again.
Looks like some solid fun! Can't wait to get my bike back out on the trails here in CO.
So true, been there and done that, after first drift its going to get worse, shade and elevation... I love to ride but not so much to push. Your channel is the best, thanks Tyler!
After moving to north Idaho, I have had to deal with snow drift. I wouldn't recommend it for 95 percent of people, but for the crazy 5 percent. if you want to do snow drifts imagine drifts as super sand, all gas, and you must ride on top of them, never let off the throttle just control with the clutch. I would also recommend dual sport studs, they aren't sketchy on street but are a game changer on snow and ice.
I should share some of our Death Ridge stories with you.. Never been in snow out there but always had crazy experiences!! When you make it into Escalante you always have stories to tell!!
Everide I enjoy watching your videos actually look forward to watching them the footage and landscape and the actual trails you ride are awesome and pray I wish I was there riding,
keep the videos coming stay safe take care looking forward to your next adventures thank you 6:42
Always a pleasure to see another EveRide video and so glad you have been able to keep the KOVE, so far. Snow will make you humble, no doubt.
carry my greenchiliadv recovery gear for that type of issue here in CO this time of year its real easy to find your self in a slippery situation
Even on my T-dub, snow on these roads can be a barrier. Sometimes I can plow through, but my riding buddies refuse.
Great vid as always! Interesting to see all 3 bikes were Zhongshen powered, they've come a long way.
I rode through my first snow drift at 12. Head height and about four bike lengths worth. But across a paved road. I hit it at 60mph and got 3/4 through before digging the rest of the way. I went riding on the other side and came back through to come home. It was a lot easier coming back.
Hi Tyler! Writing from Ecuador in South America, the kove 450s will be arriving here in a couple of months, can't wait! Was wandering if you can share the setup you are using on the kove for holding the tablet. Thanks! Keep up the great content!
When my wife and I go for adventures on our bikes, I tell her were going to suffer together then she freaks out then realizes by then we get through it and doesn't get a chance to process it.
Great ride! Also anyone who has adventured knows that there are times and places where you will move a bike without gear on. In a perfect world that would not happen but this is your world and what you do with it is no ones concern but yours. . I don't know why people comment on videos correcting others behaviors. That is one reason I would not be able to do what you do. I would tell people where to stick it when they correct me. LOL you are a great person and keep it up.
Great footage - enjoyed the adventure. :)
Just spent multiple days riding in snow and ice. Can get hairy if its deep. If we didnt ride in a bit in snow it would cut our riding season a lot shorter
It sure will make a great part of the route!
Good video. Scary stuff. Enjoyed the video.
When are we going to get a review on that eBay steering stabilizer?
What is the make and model of your navigation tablet that you have mounted at the top of your tower?
Makes me dang nervous to see those guys ride up the slick stuff without helmets. Not that I've never gone without, but not on snow and next to boulders and far from help.
Snow riding is fun it's like sand but more fun.
Snow is fun to ride in. Just don't ride outside your skills or it gets dangerous quickly
Whats up dude I've been watching your videos about kove rally bike and Im impressed with that bike, I really want one I text jimmy lewis he told me that he tested the bike from the importer that lives in Utah and in your videos you say the same thing so my question is i live in the phoenix area and i have a youtube chanel in spanish where i test bikes i cant find videos in spanish about the kove bike and I really want to test the bike and make a video about it how can i contact the importer or do you think he will be interested?
looks like fun times
was the guy on the GPX riding a 300?
How did you manage to get 3 bikes loaded in the bed of your truck?
I had the same thought
The snow can be such a chore to get through. In Nevada right next door to Utah it gets so slippery as it turns everything in the desert into mud. I have been out on the GSA so many time wishing I hadn't gone as far as I did. Looks like you guys still had a pretty good time.
awesome
I hate being the internet troll. LOVE YOUR VIDS did you mention about riding off trails giving motos a bad rap? If i missed that part...sorry
That’s snow?
Not to mention the bike gets stuck like it’s in cement! Whole lotta effort expended…lol
Aren't you a former special education teacher. I dont think I will go hardcore adv, I mainly commute on a basic dual sport, here in Alabama and ride dual sports with my wife on dirt and random areas when we travel.
If there's snow down low, not much further will you go.
Was this down around Tucson?
This is Utah. 600 miles north of Tucson.
Second!
What's up with the " ladies and gentletubers!!!!????
Memories... now will you listen to the people that have been before you?
Always wear a helmet
Anytime offroad. There are no acceptable excuses.
OK, Dad.
That giant screen in the middle of the beautiful scenery is immensely distracting.
Basically you're saying to use common sense.
