Weekend Adventuring with the Triumph Bonneville - /RideApart

- What does it take to go on a proper motorcycle adventure? Does "proper" always mean weeks of preparation, loads of gear, huge budgets, a giant touring machine and far-away destinations? Determined to prove otherwise, Jamie Robinson hops on a modern Triumph Bonneville cafe racer with no more than a Kriega bag, a Butler map and 48 hours to get out of LA and as lost as possible in the back roads of the Giant Sequoia National Forest.

This video released when I was 16 years old.
I used to watch this video over and over back then.
3 years ago I bought my first motorcycle, a 2014 Triumph Bonneville.
This weekend I set off on my first “big” adventure, rather than just riding around my local town for a couple of hours, I’m going on my first solo overnight trip into the Adirondacks in New York.
This video has always inspired me and I now I get to set off into my own adventure!
This is still the greatest video about motorcycles on youtube. I haven't seen this video in years.
Bought my first motorcycle after watching this video for about the 50th time. Thanks for the inspiration!!!
+Sam Larson You and me both my man! I wonder how many bikes this video has assisted in getting sold! What'd you end up with, I got a Bonneville! :)
I am another one, bought a T100 in 2013 after watching this video at least 20 times
Me too!!!!!
Me too!!
same here... been riding for 9 years thanks to this XD
My heart hurts watching this video. I love it so much. It's honestly one of my favorite videos ever. Riding a terrific bike through one of the best national parks on the west coast, with swimming, and a great looking burger, and infreakingcredible views, and being surrounded by nature, building a campfire, camping beneath the stars... absolutely incredible. With all the negativity that's associated with America, especially recently, it's nice to see something like this that makes me feel so positive about it.
watched this video when it came out 11 years ago while living 2300 miles away from Sequioa National forest. I am finally headed up this route on my bike a couple of days from now.
This is better then movies with hundreds of million dollar budgets. You guys deserve an Oscar for this. Simply amazing.
I am diehard fan of Bonneville...owned A3 upgraded to t120 and now speed twin 1200....what a awesome machine it is!!!🍻👍
This guy is so genuinely charming and this whole video was very nice. Ride Apart is the best part of Drive!
Everytime I watch this video it makes me happy. Surely this is exactly what road trips and life is all about!
This video should win an award. Everything is perfect!!!
That's because there are no women in it to ruin it!
Finally!! 5 years after watching this..the Inspiration.. "ONE MAN. ONE MACHINE".. got an interceptor 650 for the woods in Himalayas.. I can cry now 🙁
One of the best videos I've seen on RUclips. The reason to own a bike is captured.
One of the best motorcycle videos
"One Man, One Machine, Few Belongings." Amazing words to live by.
I know this is an old video...but I just want to point out that the sound of a Bonneville is one of the sexiest bike sounds ever produced.
Those are aftermarket pipes, but I agree.
+Andrew B Old but gold ! Nice video. I also loved the sound.
+Andrew B I agree with you, however, it had better sound amazing for how much that Arrow system costs, stupidly priced.
will miss those growling arrows..looks like3 only vance & hines this time?
it does sound lovely! i run the triumph TOR (triumph off road) pipes on 2012 bonneville and that sounds rather sweet! same kind of noise under acceleration with a nice pop on overrun - the fit is perfect as they are original triumph parts, too :)
Triumph had to fill this guy’s pockets!!! I’m sold on this bike!
Just did this ride with my buddy. We rode from Santa Monica all the way to the forest. It was a long ride, but well worth it. We even ate at the same restaurant in Ponderosa! Thanks for the inspiration!
Revisiting this video after years and years. At the time I was riding a Thruxton and had no idea how capable these machines are in the right hands. I’m older and ride more than ever, but all the nostalgia puts a huge smile on my face!
Same

One of the best RideApart episodes ever! This is what a motorcycle is about. Freedom and fun!
I think I've seen this video about 5 times now, it never gets old!! I'm going to try my best to go to a new spot every weekend this summer on my Savage. Adventures for life.
Epic piece of work!
This is exactly what i want to do in the near future!!!
This video was somewhat responsible for getting me into motorbikes! Keep coming back to it.
Wish rideapart would make a come back.
***** Brilliant! Thanks
i love the sound of that bonneville so much!!!!
Loved this video ages ago, lost it and now retrieved it. It didn't lose it's charme, inspiration and compassion over time. Jamie is a great guy and motorcycling still is a way of life. 👍🏼😎
Oldie but goldie! What a great video! I've been watching 50 times! After watching this film in winter 2013, I bought Bonneville SE in early 2014! Thanks Jamie! You da man!
I have a Bonnie and loved the essence of this video...exploration, appreciation and freedom!!! Thanks for sharing...really enjoyed it despite my slight bias as a bonny owner!!!
"Everyones thats stressed out should get a motorcycle" best quote
I love the sound of a Bonnie. Such a great all around bike. I know a guy that trail rides with one all the time. America is a wonderful thing to see, isn't it.
Kreiga bag is the US-30, my Dunlop neck scarf came from the Isle of Man TT in 2008 as a gift at the Q2 launch. I've not seen one before or after but I love it and have ridden everywhere with it since, its a part of me....
That is the prettiest-without-being-flashy Bonnie I've ever seen. And the best sounding. Amazing video.
Cheers rideapart... I finally managed to follow this route last week on an 899 panigale (rented in LA)... Absolutely amazing. Great roads (bit cold still on dome rock) great food and nice people!! Now back to the UK!
This is a friggin good video
Great video! Enjoyed it thoroughly! Keep up the solid work!
The best RideApart, fantastic job !
Watched this so many times... Absolutely awesome. 😎
Now thats my kind of weekend adventure!
The bike and its rorty exhaust note are lovely but I'm most impressed seeing him sleep on Dome Rock, apparently getting a good night's sleep on a slab of hard, cold granite. Well done!
Time flies.. This life.. These vibes..
Keeps on flying.
that Bonneville sounds amazing!
Outstanding! loved every minute.I ride a Royal enfield 500 when I find the Gl1800 goldwing boring.. Simple is pure and best
this is what I'm excited to do on my Bonneville...found this video by doing a kriega bag on triumph bonneville search....great video...camping underneath the stars is always a beautiful thing...thanks for the video!
dude...! crazy how this guy is ripping around his cafe racer bonneville thru off road tracks - AMAZING :D
I was inspired by this video to take up moto camping a few years ago. After a couple of years and a few setbacks, I am planning on following Jamie's tire tracks into the same area he rides here. Even planning to spend the last night of my trip at Dome Rock. Thanks Jaime!!
Always wanted a Bonnie and thanks to this vid, I now have my direct access booked in for completion, so hopefully I can have this beauty of a bike one day :)
Well done, this episode was nothing short of fantastic. Thank you for sharing the scenery in this episode...
Your guys' show is by far the best, most intriguing motorcycle show out there. Please don't ever stop.
I have no words for how awesome and relaxing this seems to be.
Please we need another episode of ride apart! And Yes.. The Bonneville is The Proper Bike!!!!! for this kind of real motorcycling.... well.. two days since i last rode mine and i miss her...
Great vid....and Jamie is full of enthusiasm.
The Trumpet sounds good and the countryside is what it's all about.
Made me bloody hungry with that burger!
What an awesome road trip. This is what biking is all about. Meeting people, being with nature, exploring, adventuring. Great video! Inspiring!
Best Bike Video clip i have seen in a long while.
I wana do it now, thanks Jamie
I think you'll also enjoy "honest review of a Triumph Bonneville", also via RUclips.(less adventure but a lot more LOL's.
This has been my favourite video ever on yt. Thanks a ton!!!
I think bikes like this are perfect for roads, enough poke to keep the pace but not enough to get you into trouble. Hopefully getting my bonnevile this weekend!
This is the BEST motorcycle video I ever saw. The best.
It is always funny to see the reaction of city people when travelling to rural-outdoor areas. Nice video mate!
Solid. Three hours from L.A. in any direction will put you in places that have to be seen to be believed. No better way to do it than solo on a bike. Cheers!
Great road trip on your Bonneville. I have to add this one to my list.
Must be the millionth time I've watched this. Jamie, your a legend! That burger still makes me hungry!
My childhood friend and I are planning a trip next summer to Pikes Peak with him on his Ducati Scrambler Cafe Racer and me on my Triumph Street Twin/Cup conversion. This video makes me want to go now.
You've inspired me. I'm getting a motorcycle. Soon. These types of weekends need to be at least a monthly occurrence in my life.
Awesome, makes me want to up sticks and move to the western seaboard. Looking for a place to retire to in 16 yrs, this goes in the bucket list.
Great, thanks, eyes wide open!
That's what it's all about. Great to see him giving that Triumph some stick!
I just love the thump of that motor. So old school. Just sounds so old school.
this is the essence of riding.
2cylinders,2 wheels and a weekend off is all you need to have the time of your life
breath taking views, good music. Great motorcycle.
Man I forgot how awesome Ride Apart was..
He's hardly alone! Camera man, crew, trailing vehicle... Anyhow, beautiful ride on a nice machine, thanks for the video.
Watching this video for the 100th time! Jamie is awesome.
Man, does that old Triumph have a great soundtrack.. !
Probably the best motorcycle riding video on youtube, and on a Bonneville no less. You sir have given me a new dream in life, I will visit that place and ride. kudos.
before watching this video i would have never thought to ride a bike like that on roads like those. thnx for the awesome video and inspiration for a road trip. now all i need is a bike...
Great vid mate. That's it, I am buying a Bonneville & exploring 'stralya. Thanks for the inspiration.
makes me realize how much of nature I take for granted. Secluded forests, crags, mountain trails? been there, done that, going out again tomorrow.
Thanks for the reply. I've been riding for years and ride 9+ months out of the year here in Boston and this video reminded me of my California roots and inspired me to both ride with a bit more gusto but more importantly to enjoy the bike I have and not to over-think a short get-away. Thanks again.
Perfect bike, perfect trip, perfect video. And a top bloke!
I actually live a couple of miles from this area and priviledged to take the same trip as he did on many occasions. I came accross this video on Hell for Leather and clicked on it and knew exactly where he was at throughout the trip AWESOME . I think its time to head up there again, watch out for the Only CHP officer that always up there on weekends other than that it great. I knew I should of went this weekend Damn.
this video is sooo awesome!! Just makes me love motorcyles even more! keep making these sweet episodes - I love 'em!
Everyone should take a trip like this just once in a while for no reason.
Amazing video. Perfekt bike. Cool story. :-)
Whenever I am having a bad day, I watch this video. Thanks Drive
I can't stop smiling. My dream bike is featured on my dream adventure. Thank you guys for being amazing. Also, whoever is picking your soundtrack is amazingly good.
I can't stop watching this damn video! Great work, boys!
Can't wait for spring.
Iconic ride.
Amazing bike. Amazing presentation. Amazing setting. This is easily the best rideapart yet.
Very well done. I wish I could ride like that one day !
This is one of the best videos I have ever seen.
Wow......Great Vid, beautiful country, beautiful bike.
This is what riding is all about! Great vid mate.
Ride Apart is great! and I agree Jamie is fantastic!!!
First of all Ride Apart is great. Second and foremost this is what riding is all about period. Can't wait till winter is over here in Montana... The 848 awaits!
i think because of this video i have triumph scrambler in my garage :) beautiful video!
Travel, Beautiful Vistas, Adventure, Food, Speed. THATS THE PETROL HEAD LIFE
Adventure!
god, just watching this feels amazing.
wow this was another great one. just added this trip to my bucket list along with getting that motorcycle
Loving the sounds coming out of the back of that thing... wAaaawwWw, wAaaawwWw!
Just dropping in here to say that this area is now one of my favorite regular weekend getaways. Was up there just last month. Ponderosa Lodge is under new management and the folks have done a lot of work, great people. Camping at Dome Rock spectacular. Was up there just last month. Rode up from Ventura County via power line roads to Mojave, over Jawbone Canyon and Piute Peak, Kernville, etc.. Returned through California Hot Springs (Old Stage Road) and Capinero Drive. Will be there again in October, taking in Sherman Pass and Horse Meadow.
Now thats a way to spend a weekend love it
Man I love this video. Adventure, motorcycle, and that burger.
WOW ! this show just keeps getting better n better. The camera work in this episode is just outstanding for a bike show. Thank you guys so so much. I cannot describe how bad I wanna do just this kind of trip but it's way to hot n humid where I am right now. Will have to wait at least till November to do a trip. but a trip I shall do : ) Ride safe boys .
