Motorcycling Across America (US) - EP3 - LA to NY

- Опубликовано: 16 июн 2020
- In September 2019, I left Brooklyn to travel the country alone on my 2008 Triumph Bonneville. Upon leaving, I could never have anticipated everything that I’d encounter over the next month. These videos do little justice to the feeling of driving alone into an endless horizon, the relief of a stranger helping you out of an impossible situation, the suppressing heat of a desert sun on a leather jacket, the desperation of hoping for a gas station around the next corner, the warmth of a motel room after a 7 hour drive through the rain, the conversations had, the loneliness felt, and the joy of completing the last of 9,275 miles. Even so, I hope these glimpses will serve as inspiration for someone to dive headfirst into the unknown and unfamiliar, and for myself to look back and be reminded of the adventure of a lifetime.

For anyone looking for more details on this trip, I had the honor of talking about it on my friend Kyle's podcast:

"only a biker knows why dogs stick their heads out of the window"
fellow biker here. just finished all 3 episodes. i find this series rather therapeutic.
THIS IS WHY WE RIDE
...it is exactly like that👈
"you will never see a motorcycle parked in front of a therapist office"
@@diegodeanda2002 Sorry, I ride to my therapist and I see a lot of bikes/bikers at my support group, @ the VA.

I rode before I killed, now I ride from my pain!!!
That is 100 % true! Just ride and stay safe! 🙋♂️🇭🇷
Dam I really admire him to ride his bike from la to nyc I also ride I have kawasaki Vulcan Voyager that's a massive cruiser motorcycle I want to ride from philly to sturgis but I cant be riding on a basic little triumph Bonneville like that across the country I need a little more technology if I'm doing a ride like that lol but he's definitely and inspiration for me
That ending when you back your bike up to the same spot you park your bike everyday and notice that your home and Everything looks so familiar. The emotion that overwhelms you knowing you accomplished a big journey and found yourself spiritually is the definition of life. Being Alive and having that emotion and memories is something you will have forever in your life. One of the best feelings you can ever experience. Thank you for taking us on that journey with you..
Aye, Same thing happens after a long passage at sea. The glorious sights you saw, the monster waves you survived, the winds from a storm, the damaged rigging leaving you adrift. Struggling a jammed line inches from death. Almost losing a friend over the side. Then the moment you step foot on the dock...... you can't wait to get out there again. When you walk pass people they have no idea what you have just survived. All those sights and sounds are rushing through your head while you sit there and listen to them jabber about bullshit.
God bless our soldiers.
The only thing that's real in life, truly, is experience. No matter how overly romantic it sounds, there are few like riding solo into the expanse, leaning into a corner on a forest road, or cresting a hill to see the fog hover over a river below.
Thank you for sharing that with us. An experience in your life you will never forget and one you have on film to watch again years from now. Thank you again.
I'm a 64 year old Canadian but I spent my youth in the U.S living two years in Chicago, 7 in California and Colorado for 10 and have travelled across the country several times. This RUclips pop-up brought back so many memories that I was just mesmerized, reliving my youth. And loving the soundtrack! I Shazaamed it as I went and will listen to every one of those albums. As well as re-watch the whole thing. And the ending was perfect! Great job.
Agree
love these vids too, and added up by these soundtracks makes it perfect
👍
Just watched all 3 episodes and I am blown away by the adventure I just witnessed. The tears at the end was one of the most genuine reactions I have ever seen. This looked like a journey of discovery and I cant wait to have one of my own once I get my license in the next few months.
Thanks man! Definitely came from a real place. Hoping for many adventures for you and your bike! Ride safe out there!
@@jakeridesaway I would love to have a copy of your route. That was truly amazing
I cried too! Amazing series!
That was an incredibly well done documentary. I loved it! Hardly a word spoken except for the great playlist. I wonder if he ever considered having a tape made of the songs he used. I’d buy one.
These three videos were almost spiritual for me , thank you for letting me go on this trip with you.
Kent Thompson Awesome to hear that Kent thanks for coming along!
Yes! Thank you! Perfectly put! Bravo!
Yes...I can say the same...
Thank you so much for this 3 video.....
Totally agree
In your long life, no one will ever be able to take THAT adventure away from you!
Thanks for sharing.
I fucking cried watching this, the songs and the visuals were perfect. It was theraputic as hell. I've literally just bough my first 125cc at the age of 26 (Quater life crisis I guess). I always wanted to do a tour of America in a car with some friends but this has made me think about going it alone on a bike when I qualify for a full licence. Thanks for uploading this. It's great.
At the end of the ride, there are only a few things to say: God bless this beautiful country and people like you who lived it in its real values and spirit. Greetings from Italy 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
every single foreign tourist that i meet goes to the big places but none go to the small towns or just a random state. go to a small town and that is where the real magic is.
the ending.
I felt it bro🥺🤩
Hey Jake , what an epic trip! Thanks for taking us along. Brought back a lot of memories ... In 1979 I finished my first year as a HS teacher and had my first summer off work. I had never ridden a motorcycle, so I asked one of my senior students with a bike to show me. After a hour on his bike on the HS track, I took my permit test. The next day I bought a new CX 500. The following day I took my license test, and the next day headed from St Cloud, Minnesota toward San Diego. Young and confident, it was an amazing trip. On the way back I ran out of money, so I could afford gas or food, but not both. I ended up riding 36 hours straight from Salt Lake City to St Cloud and then sleeping for 24 hours!
Forty plus years later, it is still one of my fondest memories. Thanks for bringing it back!
My god. I had an almost identical experience from my student days; in 1980 I ran out of money for food so I road 20 hours straight non-stop (except for petrol) from Brisbane to Melbourne (1,800km) on my Trident t150. Got into Melb with $5 left and lashed out and bought a burger:-) I also slept for 24 hours straight and had a sore arse for about a week :-)
Michael Wade : Difficult at the time, but makes for a good story. We were pretty indestructible when 40 years younger! Thanks for sharing!
just plain awesome!
I live in SD. Look like I gotta make a trip to minissota then
damn how the hell was it so easy to get your license?
I found these 3 episodes absolutely therapeutic. Your emotions at the end speak volumes for all us bikers. Sensational trip my friends. And thankyou for sharing that experience with us. You will inspire alot to hit the road no doubt! Peace.
Solo riding is so overwhelming over a period of 30 days. the gusty winds, the sharp turns, piercing rain drops, the solace in riding with nothing around, the lovely gesture of people who understand the joy of riding, the random conversation with oneself and lastly hearing the bike roar. All this is something to be felt and I guess you have by far come the closest to make it feel for others.
Wonderful..!!
The music selection on all three videos are awesome!!
You Dont hear Indio much!
@@randytbird6548 what is that ?
@@bishupradhan500 the band Indio was one of the tracks of music . great stuff from the 90s
Thanks brother I'll surely listen to it

This series popped up in my feed and didn't think much of it till I watched the 1st one. Like a good book I couldn't put it down and had to get thru them all. Bravo! An hour of my life NOT wasted! I've really wanted to do this on my own motorcycle and hopefully someday I'll be able to. The United States is so varied, beautiful, weird and exciting all at once, and experiencing it exposed and open to it all on a bike could be a life changing experience. Thank you. Subbed and two thumbs up! Keep em coming!
Wow, thanks for saying that man. Glad you enjoyed the ride! Really hope you get the chance to make the trip yourself, definitely a life changing experience! Ride safe out there
Same thing happened to me it just popped up and had to see all 3 stay blessed 🙏🙏
One day i will travel to the US and go on a cross country trip, i've been dreaming about it for the last 20years. Today i found your channel and i watched part 1 -3 and i have to say that this brought tears, laughter and a giant smile on my face.
Respect from sweden, you got yourself a new follower on YT :)
Don't wait until it's too late!
Bills never end dad just passed away 45 years young
@@briantruck2284 so sorry for your loss. Thanks for the motivation, I'm going next year with a couple of friends 🙂
Just be ready for it to be a lot more massive than you think it is :) good luck
@@RATsnak3 of course 😁 thanks 🙏
Watching all 3 episodes in 2024. Thank you for taking us on this wonderful journey. 🏍️ 🥹 ✌🏾
As an almost 60 year old man who is waiting to retire before I do this . My heart warms to know you did this as a young man. You did this right kid... i’m still trying to learn it’s about the journey not the destination. It seems you have this down pat at a young age. And your music choice was on point especially the last song. Great job and God bless you.
Thanks for saying that Frank. I was lucky enough to have the opportunity for this trip to work out at this time! Hoping for an amazing two wheeled adventure for you soon, all the best
Hey man, just wanted to pop in and say that was the most fitting ending I could've imagined for this series of videos. I'm so ridiculously happy that you were able to experience something so moving and share it with everyone else. Godspeed my friend, keep those 2 on the road.
Thanks so much man. Was hesitant to put that ending in there but thought the same! All the best
@@jakeridesaway Always add the ending. You might think its "not cool, or stupid", but it shows the emotion... and that is what get the viewers, the human side. Great job man
@@jakeridesaway we love the ending. Man I feel like crying if I just take my bike and go for a 200kms one day ride and back home the same day, I can’t imagine what u must have felt at the end of the trip, definitely will go across India whenever I get the time, as of now I have a 160cc bike so I don’t think it’s capable of doing a cross country
Sat here in England wishing i could do this trip. I was blown away by it. And as soon as you cried at the end i immediatly burst out crying too haha. Thankyou for sharing that journey. Its very inspiring :)
my question is, how can you document such a beautiful experience into such a small time frame? These 3 videos have brought me such joy and inspiration yet its only took an hour of my time, yet a month of yours?
The smile on your face at the end...reflected in the mirror...that said more than a few words. Awesome, thank you.
Isn't traveling solo a great way to go!? You've done a great job with these videos, and I love your taste in music.
I ride since my late 16. I decided to travel with motorcycle at 24-25...Now at my 34,traveling through Greece I am watching these episodes and I realized that I do not have so much time to see all that I may wanted to. Greece has so many beautiful places to travel which I have not yet explored but it is a so small country in Europe and America is so far away....These videos gave me a push up not to stop traveling and gave me a view of America that I wanted to have. Thanks pal ! Keep up making nice music-traveling videos! Greetings from Greece!
Welcome to Russia! ;)
BRAVO! I Know what means riding hours under the rain, alone, thousend of Km (ooppss..miles) far away from home. WITH THIS KIND OF FANTASTIC MOTORCYCLE. Super travel, my friend. Super travel indeed!
Thank you. I did a similar trip on my Triumph Speedmaster in 2017. I went from Kentucky, north to Canada. From there I road across Canada to Banff. Next down in to Idaho then Spokane, Washington and on to Portland. From there I hugged the West Coast down Washington and Oregon. The Pacific coast in Organ is one of the most beautiful sites. Next I went into California, through Eureka and back out to the coast. I took the same trip across the Golden Gate. From there it was across the desert to Vegas and then the Grand Canyon. Finally, I went through New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and back home to Kentucky. Roughly 32 days of pure bliss. I know that feeling when you pulled back in at home. Thanks for helping me re-live my journey. I didn’t have a GoPro back then. The whole thing is a blessing.
One of the best trips ever. Load up the old Bonny with all the gear, roll the handlebars back a bit to suit, and ride right across the US and back home again. How simple is that :) I enjoy hearing commentary as well, but this series just didn’t need any. The scenery and the music told the story for me this time. Well done Jake, and thanks so much for letting us see this. Cheers.
Jake, thank you for putting this together. I agree with Eric...I found this very therapeutic. I recently purchased a motorcycle after giving it up in my early twenties, and thirty years later I'm ready to get out and explore on two wheels. What a wonderful gift you've shared with the rest of us...truly grateful for you.
Lately I’ve been feeling lost, I lost my bike to a crash last July, it was my fault just young and dumb broke my pelvis luckily that’s all. She gave her life up to protect me. When I watched this video it filled a void in my heart because I always wanted to do this and everyone shut me down telling me it’d be dumb and this and that etc but they just never understood the peace I’m at when it’s just me the bike & the road I’ll be 23 this July and I can’t wait to start my journey this gave me the the extra push I needed thank you
I am from Romania, eastern Europe, and I dream of a trip like this across America.My motorcycling journey will hopefully start next week. I am taking my motorcycle driving test.
Fantastic series of videos. Congratulations.
I'm.Australian and lived in Oradea for sometime. Loved it
I am from Croatia. Me too ♥️
Same dream, bro
Salutare din moldova.
Visul meu sa merg pe la Transfăgărășan.
Safe travels
Thanks for awesome video .. that's it I'm gonne start with the license and do this myself
I just love that feeling after a long ride, you've arrived back home safe. You just can't help but smile, finally you can rest and funny enough, it make you want to do it all over again.
When my wife and I rode 2 up to San Francisco from Pennsylvania on my Ducati st2 that had 186,000 miles on when we LEFT!! I asked her ," what do you think will be the most exciting, " THE FIRST MILE, OR THE LAST ????? 8800 miles 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Hello from India ! Absolutely inspiring videos , thanks for sharing and letting viewers be a part of your journey. Wonderful editing as well, cheers bro
Just finished all three episodes and all I can say is...wow...just wow... Fantastic editing, great choices of music - the hour slipped by in no time at all. Definitely time well spent. Thank you for taking us on your journey - I felt your tears at the end. Well done - on accomplishing the journey as well as this amazing video series.
IN 2015 I WAS 67 YEARS AND HAD THIS GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO RIDE FROM FLORIDA TO TORONTO IT BOUGHT BACK ALL THE GREAT MEMORIES.AMAZING AMERICA.
Three videos - one hour crossing the states. Thanks for sharing!
Greetings from Germany
Just finished watching all 3 episodes. Thanks for taking the time to make these, it's really inspiring.
Left the crowds in California 15 years ago on my bike and now California has come to Arizona so even at the ripe old age of 76 will load up my bike and head out again. History repeating its self . To me home is where I park.
All three videos can be summed up in one word for me, "Perfect". You captured some really beautiful sights, Jake. The tracks you selected brought me in to the moment and I felt like I was right there with you, witnessing such grand beauty. An hour of my life reliving some memories of my own through your eyes. Pulling back in to your neighborhood, I felt it too. Bravo. I have shared your videos......the whole world needs to see them.
My parents were illegal immigrants in the States (NYC) and I have always been dreaming of visiting your beautiful country since young. But your videos showed beauty beyond the big cities. I love the countryside, the mountains, the small towns.. they are just so quaint and beautiful. Thank you.
Stunning scenery, enjoyed seeing some of ‘small town America’ rather than massive cities. I’m hoping these three videos are a ‘trailer’ for an extended tour of the US! Anyone else interested in such a series? From Cambridge UK
everything in this series is gold. from the selection of music, the breathtaking landscapes to your beautiful bike
i watched it a few times til now, it's very relaxing, you seem like a nice and gentle guy and you inspire me to do something similar in my country (not as big, from germany over to austria/ switzerland)
i'd like to see more of your trips!
Thanks so much for the kind words! Glad you liked it. Hope you get to have that adventure soon! Switzerland is next on my list!
@@jakeridesaway If you ever get to make that trip to Switzerland, I'd be happy to hop on to the back of your motorcycle :) Dreams aside - I've really enjoyed this documentary of the stunning landscapes and lovely people you have met along the way. Stay Safe! Greetings from Austria
What an incredible journey. As a fellow rider I'm envious and respectful for what you have accomplished. I don't know many people who have the courage to do a trip like that on their own, myself included! A trip across country on two wheels is on my bucket list. You're an inspiration thank you for sharing your journey with us.
Thank you ❤️ sending time taking me on this awesome trip. I enjoyed every mile,
Thank you for the wonderful video. People's kindness, warmth, affection, smiles, you had a wonderful experience. Motorcycles enrich your life. I'm a 58 year old rider. From Japan
I'm rooting for you
🙏🙏🙏
Я не искал это видео, но оно нашло меня. Смотрел все три эпизода с большим интересом и удовольствием. Природа обалденная.
Guys, you are very lucky to have such nature and possibility to ride on a bike so far. Hi from Russia!
i will recommend this series to everyone i know who loves motorcycling. it was entertaining and relaxing to watch!
thanks
This series made me realise how little of the world I've seen and how claustrophobic my own life is by comparison. I am 18, just passed my first stage of my motorbike license and I hope one day I can do something similar to you. Just wow
This past February I took a trip from the Dallas, TX area up to Kearney, NE, along the Oregon trail to Portland, OR, southern Washington, down through California, to Yosemite, to Death Valley, then Las Vegas, and back to Texas. That trip took me two weeks. About 6,000 miles. I drove my Toyota Tacoma pickup. In order to stay close to the Oregon Trail, I took back roads, including dirt roads. I stopped when I wanted. Did what I wanted. It was refreshing. Soul cleansing. Just me and my camera, most of the time. ..........Now, I've bought me a Triumph Scrambler.
19:43 is the best part on this video. PRICELESS!
Absolutely amazing episodes that inspire on a whole different level. Fellow biker here from Europe. I can only say, it was a total privilege watching these videos. Wish I could do this someday 😊
saw these videos right at the start of the pandemic. never in my life have i felt such an instantaneous and intense desire to drop everything and do something. these videos are the reason i decided i wanted to get a motorcycle one day. i come back every once in a while to remind myself what made me want this. it's still a ways off for me, but one day i hope i can get a bike and go on my own adventure. thank you.
This is the 10 or 15 time I've watched these videos, guess what? I still love them. Great music, great scenery. 🥲I love the getting home part. 🥲🥲
After watching these 3 vids, all I can say is “WOW.” Thank you for documenting this trip and letting us tag along with you. Hopefully, one day I can do a trip like this as well. Also it was really cool seeing you pass through SF, just cause I’m from there haha. But great job man, I’m honestly very proud of you!
Thanks for tagging along! And for the kind words! Hoping the same for you, it's a trip I wish everyone could take!
at the end,i felt with you.only a biker can feel what you feel in this moment when the trip is over and you arrive at home.what an epic trip.all bikers are brothers!!stay safe,ride safe.greetings from Germany!!!
I am not from the States, but one of my biggest dreams is to make that trip around the U.S. Thank you for sharing such an amazing experience with us!
I am from India...by seeing these 3 videos....I just experienced (atleast 1%) America's nature along with you.....Very nice....👍
It was emotional for me as well,.... If you own a bike you to would understand the profound feeling of freedom,... Thanks for sharing this special trip.
I just watched the entire series. You did an amazing job with this. The music selection was perfect. This was truly an inspiration. I love riding long distances as well, but the past few years hasn't allowed it for me. This year I had plans of some more long distance travels (nothing like this journey of yours) but it wasn't in the cards. I was diagnosed with cancer early in the year received chemo every three weeks for 6 months so I didn't get to ride. These videos were so appreciated by me. Keep up the great work. You deserve some kind of award for this work.
Thank you my friend...That's the best video of a cross country ride I've ever seen. I've got a Harley Ultra Classic and I want to do that ride. I was born in LA County in 1961. I'd love to go back and just ride through. I love the music you played as the video played. Thank You good man...
Inspiring. As a guy that is getting his first motorcycle ever delivered in a couple hours and it being a 2020 Bonneville. I am beyond excited for the memories I will make. So thankful you brought us on your journey across America and back! Thank you! I'll be listening to the podcast next.
This episode is the most heart breaking :(
That was a fantastic journey. Thank you for sharing this with the world. I wanted to do a ride from Calgary to New York until all this came down. Your series has kept me inspired to make it happen. Honestly was a bit teary when you were at the home stretch and it killed me the moment after you switched off. Ride safe and see you out there, man.
Great journey! 👏👏🙋♂️🇭🇷
Thank you Jake, for giving us this wonderful Footage of your incredible Tour!
I absolutely love those three Videos! Can't wait to go to the USA. Didn't have the Chance yet. 😔 But i'm / we're working on it! 💪
Thank you for this awsome journey:-)
What an experience! You are the man! 👍🏼 These videos are so inspiring for many, thank you.
Another fellow biker here and greetings from Boise Idaho; wonderful series thanks Jake. I'm planning on doing a shorter version on my V-Strom 650 this summer. Your videos have been highly inspirational and I loved your choice of music. Very emotional ending and quite understandable. Keep the shiny side up. Cheers!
Beautiful videos. Sat down and watched all three of them through with my wife. Love the music, the places and people. What an awesome country we live in. This is it; stripped down affordable basic bike, bags, and a heart for exploration. Well done.
So glad you both enjoyed. Thanks for watching!
@Jake Rides Away can you direct me to the Spotify interview, I saw it, and now I can't find it ìtit

That was beautiful, man! Loved the soundtrack too.
Holy smokes! What a trip. Beautiful. The ending was so touching.
Such a great trip in great country with fantastic scenery, especially when riding your bike....! Thanks for letting me part of this. Cheers from Holland ( also fellow biker..)
America is a place of such geological beauty. The different rock types, formations and trees tell such a story all on their own, let alone the story unfolding. You're living my dream. The UK is nice to ride around but one day I dream of going east to west and back again.
Thank you Jake for taking us all with you on this wonderful adventure. Can't wait to be on the road again! Peace to you my motorcycle brother!
Well done.
You will remember this trip fondly when you are old and gray.
THIS shared feeling of freedom is why we acknowledge each other on the road. After a dear friend was diagnosed with a terminal illness, I asked him what was on the top of his bucket list that we'd go check off. He said that the greatest event of his life was a motorcycle trip he made across Canada to go visit his brother in British Columbia, and although he wasn't healthy enough to make such a long journey again, he'd like to do a shorter one through part of the US. We did, and a number of other local rides as well. You'll never forget this journey, or those still in the future. Here's hoping that we all continue to do the same. Thanks for sharing your journey and bringing back memories of my own.
Thanks Jake. God bless you. Through your trip I was able to remember some tours of that wonderful country and its people. Glory to God for the wonders he created and gifted to that great country. Those formidable stairways that are part of the Rockies. Its fauna and its care. I saw you leave that great mass of iron and concrete that is N Y and return to the Brookleen neighborhood. Wonderful experience. A hug. Tremendous Triumph, the most good.
The music, the landscapes and the emotions... almost felt the ride with you bro, for all the 3 episodes :-)
This is why we ride!
You choose the right roads and the right music. Great!!
Great video. Some of those scenes look familiar.
An old biker once told me "I've been to a lot of places but didn't see much." He didn't stop to look at the scenery and smell the roses. It appears that you took the time to look around and appreciate this great country.
Beautiful, just beautiful, this is what riding a bike is all about. Thank you!
Hard Sun! Knew that song was going to be in one of these three vids. Excellent!
Well done sir. I've made that trip and it was a life changing journey for me.
Thank you for taking us around your country.. It's a pleasure to watch this series.. May God continues to bless you and you many live many more years to bring joy to people around the world with such series.. God bless you once again.. ♥️🇳🇱
Just wow! I've been dreaming about making the trip since I'm a teenager and watching the series of videos might just be the tipping point!
Already been to most of the places of the trip but the Bonnie just makes it almost like a pilgrimage.
I forgot about the forbidden lane splitting though.. as a European that sucks haha!
Damn good video, it would have been difficult for me to leave Utah: )
One of the stretches I wish I could relive again and again
@@jakeridesaway The red rocks against the blue sky! So beautiful. Thank you for sharing your trip!
Keep the faith everyone. As fd up as this country is right now, it's still the best and most beautiful place on earth.
This New Englander lived in L.A. for 28 years and I had a Honda Nighthawk 750 for a brief time and managed some great rides, but nothing like what you did! But I have been to many of the places you visited so this is a nice trip down memory lane! Thank you!
Hey Jake. Great videos. Love the scenery. Love the bike. I have an '07 Triumph America. Best bike I've had, had it from new, and will probably never get rid of it. I need to take that cross country trip. Either Canada, or U.S. , or both. Ha ha. Thanks for the fun video.
Hope you show some more road trips.
Brad.
Thanks Brad! I vote for both! Canada would be a dream!
just finished all 3 episodes, can't wait to get my license and start riding.
one life time isn't enough to explore all
I don't know why I never saw your videos earlier. I watched all 3 back to back. I am a 66 year old Canadian biker and have been on some of the same routes you took. We never had video cams back in the day so thanks for such a fantastic journal. It made me grin lots . What a great trip and memories you must have had. Memories to last your whole life.
Hope watching these brought you back to those memories you made! Definitely something I’ll cherish forever
5:38 makes us feel like we should leave the house right away
This is amazing! you've inspired me to do this one day
I hope you do man!
If you want someone to ride with in Alberta right on the Montana border
Judging by the length of these videos you did the trip in just over 60 minutes. You were obviously speeding.
Did anyone get this guys license plate??
How many people started watching the first vid and didn't/couldn't stop until the third? I recognize a few of the roads you traveled. I've always said, if you're going to see the mountains the only way to do it is on a motorcycle, nothing like it.
Very well done Jake,
Jake, I just loved your episodes across America; this is motorcycling ....
If you don't mind me asking what was the cost of the trip sir?
4:30 that moment you realize you need an Adventure bike!
I got what you meant, but if you point your front wheel towards the horizon and ride free on paved or dirt roads it makes no difference wich steed you're astride on, it's already an adventure.
Peace from Brazil. ✌
I was crying at the end. I’ve had a spinal injury and neck injury not from a bike. I haven’t been able to ride for 2 years more than 15 minutes a couple of times. Today I felt some relief in my back and I’m feeling like everything is go to be okay! Thanks for he awesome video!
Thank you for sharing. Many youtubers point the camera at themselves most of the time. The videos are more about them and less about the ride. Whereas you showed us your POV and made it easier for us to imagine ourselves riding down those open roads. Very refreshing. Also, the song "Hard Sun" is a must on any road trip. Nice choice! Safe travels.
As an Englishman watching you ride a Triumph through some of the most spectacular scenery makes me want to do the same ride. Thank you so much for sharing these three videos. If ever your in England let me know mate and we'll go out on the bikes 👍
