@@francescosalvioli8073hey Europe is also very nice for biking. l'm 64 and last Summer l drove nearly 1000 km in Perigord / france with my 40 year old Kawasaki . best biking ever for me .
your cross country roadtrip really helped me go through a tough situation, I was facing, it was a beautiful and inspiring distraction, I’m only 19, and I can’t even ride a bike, but hopefully someday I’ll be getting my own motorcycle, and doing my own cross country roadtrip, so thank you, for being a great inspiration.
This is AMSR for Bikers. It's simple, average of about 4 seconds a cut (which are quite long cuts) and makes a slow paced feeling that helps us absorb. Like each clip is a moving photograph. Ode to a memory of a thing. I'm inspired. For so many videos are there for the sake of fame and prosperity. "To be the RUclipsr and be monotized" I feel like yours are the old school feelings of what RUclips was when it was founded. Amatures making videos of their lives for the sake of the fun of it. For the memories to be shared. This is the kind of video I could make. I wish I had done something like this on my Russian trip. But your experience is so valuable for my plans to do the same. Thank you for your content!
Dude, Im from India & the current pandemic here is really taking a huge toll on us. Physically & Mentally. Watching your cross country tour helped me escape a little from all the pain & suffering around me at the moment. I cannot thank you enough. Great editing, Great Music & Great Visuals. Wish you all the best.
@@fasthracing There are particular states which are facing the worst of Covid, they are in lockdown. As for the other states, they are not allowing entry for people from the "infected states" just yet and are functioning with manageable covid conditions.
When I decided that I was buying my first motorcycle, I started looking for inspiring travel videos. I found your movie, which I have watched several times. On Wednesday I'm going on my first trip to the mountains. Hope I can make something as fun as a movie from your trip. :-)
Hi Jake, can´t see any reason for embarrassment. Very authentic. Stay that way. And once you get used to seeing and hearing yourself on the video I could see a new career starting for you. As far as "planing the trips" is concerned : You already mentioned it, - you wished you had had more time. So, to all of you out there who plan a Bike Trip: don´t make the classic mistake and go easy on the miles/day! Depending what is there to visit and see along the road I find 200 miles /320 km already more than enough. Of course, if you travel on a German Highway to get to some place (and depending on the bike you ride) 600 miles is also possible. But if you are cruising twisties in the Alps - take your time! Good luck Jake , and good luck all. Greetings from Europe.
Thanks so much for the kind words! And for watching! Will do my best to keep that encouragement in mind for the next one 🙌 fully agree with those mileage tips! Ride safe out there
Super helpful! Im leaving Sunday for a 5000 mile ride to yellowstone and the grand canyon and packing up my bike today. Im glad you're going to continue vlogging man, youre videos inspired me to gopro my trip.
Enjoyed the vid. Thanks for sharing info and thoughts. Going on a long bike trip in June. At 67 still riding.... Don't ever say you're too old. Thanks again...
Even as an avid motorcycle adventurer/travel rider, with dozens of big and small trips under my belt, your series was inspiring. It got me thru a tough year and a half without any travel, motorcycle or otherwise. And while i understand the western construct of 'travel for leisure' is incredibly self indulgent by a global perspective, time away on a motorcycle in the wild places of the world is truly good for my mental health. Thanks for keeping that alive just when it was needed.
Thanks so much for the kind words Greg, I'm glad you found some solace in these videos during all of this! It's been a tough go for sure. Hoping you're able to find some adventure soon!
I think you’re editing and choice of music was spot on. There’s another guy I follow on here, Classic rides, Matt, who does films on his bonneville in England, I think you’d enjoy them. You both have the knack of making us forget what else is going on in the world and being in the moment, thank you. ✌️
What a great story. Thank you for sharing it. I quit my job in 1986 and rode cross country for 3 months. 13,000 miles. Giant counterclockwise loop starting from DC on a 1984 Moto Guzzi V65SP. Your videos bring back so many memories, I am so grateful for that. I turn 62 next week and hope after I retire to do it again, maybe not so much camping LOL and on an 850 Guzzi not 650. Cheers!
Well done! Thanks for sharing your tips and gear info. I rode my T100 around Lake Superior in 2015, and am riding my T120 to Montana/Wyoming/Idaho this summer (from Cleveland). Looking forward to more videos from you. Ride on!
Hi Jake, Suzze and I have been riding ) camping far and wide for some years now. We identify with what you do. Been to many of the places you've been to. You are to be congratulated. We love your humble approach to travel. Your stories and how you present yourself. Keep in touch as NZ welcomes you. Plenty of room in the Inn 👍🏍️🏍️
These last few days, I've watched your videos of your cross country trip. Loved what I saw, loved the music ... it was a fantastic moment of escaping everytime. I've never been in the USA, I feel I did it a bit with your videos. This was great. Thank you from Belgium
Hello from Bonnie Scotland 😊 I watched all 3 episodes , very enjoyable and bought back so many great memories, riding from John o Groats, most of Europe, a spell in the middle east, Brisbane Ausi, about 250k miles, mostly great fun times. I did it all before anno dominie caught up 😅
Thank you Jack, I am from China and I get a lot of inspiration from your videos. You let me understand that many times travel is about taking action instead of always worrying that you don't have much equipment or time. I believe that one day I will be able to go to the United States for a motorcycle trip, and I look forward to meeting you on the road~😎
I know this sounds cliché, but totally awesome! I'm now 66 years old and ready to take on Route 66! I hope you might consider a video on review a few of your favorite motorcycles. I'm preparing to buy a new one this summer and would appreciate your input, Jake.
Fantastic voyage! Thanks for taking the time to document, edit and do a QA on the setup. I've dreamt of doing a cross country trip since I was a kid and next Sept is my target time. PA to Seattle to San Fran to PA. Good choice of music, motorcycle and beer. Safe travels man!
Great video/music blend. Put Ireland on your bucket list; you'll be glad you did. We rode the whole way round last summer, stopping constantly, and still managed to circumnavigate it in less than three weeks.
The most therapeutic and spiritually renewing thing I've ever done was my "nearly" 8000 mile motorcycle trip. I highly recommend it. I believe that it's the oneness with the elements that is what gave me back my soul.
I'm from Cambodia I've been driving across the country with group of our bois bikers. We journey, we camping, hiking. For all of you, travel before you run out of time. Love your video
I can even put to words how much your videos affected me. I was always hesitant about getting a bike, but after finding your channel I realized that if you are not doing what you love then you are not truely living.
Cool to learn more about the journey, thanks for posting. If you can document your Switzerland trip anything like your previous one, I'm sure we'd all love to see it!
I have watched your trip many times, it is put together so well and with a wonderful soundtrack. I do hope you get the chance for more adventures and that you will be kind enough to take us along. Thank you Jake.
I have postponed trip like yours for way too long now I’m too old. I decided I’ll drive a truck for a living and see the country at the same time . Best decision I’ve made … it’s such a beautiful country I’m glad I get to see it .
When I saw the book at 10:56 it really warmed my heart. Im reading it now, Lewis had some great toughts! Thank you for the incredible videos that you have made! Wish you Christ’s grace for the rest of your life
Your videos are what sparked my interest in motorcycles, I think I watched them 2 years ago and I am now finally looking into getting my own bike. Not an actuall motorcycle, but the closest thing I can get to is a Hanway Raw 50. Thank you for posting your videos and in a way changing my life. I never expected to be into bikes haha
As a biker, your sense of adventure is something i aspire to have. me personally i often feel fear when thinking like "what do i do" in certain situations, like I'm not a mechanic what if i break down. I have been telling my family I need to do something ill always remember.
The Abolition of Man...one of the great ones. I certainly appreciate your everyman approach. Reminds me a bit of Austin Vince, no pretension. These adventures are available to many, many people, not just those with 25k bikes, 1200.00 riding gear and camping gear made from moon rocks. Keep on.
Jake my man! Stoked your back! 80 year old folks pulled through the COVID. Your trip pulled me though that crazy time. Been tripping on my bike as well, listening to the "chill" music as well! More vids please!
This is another great video and it's also good to see you back, hopefully there will be more coming!! Thank you again for sharing your cross Country trip videos, they're truly awesome and I watch them every time I need additional inspiration and motivation while currently saving for my bike and get back on the road!! Well done!! 👍👍
Hi! I’m from Brazil, I’ve been following your videos and they are making me dream with the beautiful views and songs of your trip. Congratulations and keep on make us dream.
You rode about 5 miles north of me across Hood Canal towards Olympic Peninsula. Loved your trip. I’ve done Alaska to Texas (separate trips) on Yamaha Ventures, FJR, and Harley Sporsters. Really enjoyed following you on your trip. Good job thanks 😊
Really enjoyed your videos. I've been riding since 1975 and have done quite a few road trips here in UK but came to the US in 2019, about the same time as your trip to ride route 66. Had never been to the US before or ridden a Harley but had a great time. We saw some wonderful places and met some great people along the way. Incredible experience. Plan to come back and do some more at some point. I would encourage anyone thinking about a trip to just go for it. Life is not a rehearsal and will be over sooner than you think.
Good video!! When I am traveling on a motorcycle, I prefer to ride by myself. I find that people we speak to me when I am alone vs when I am with someone. So my trips by myself are always full of stories of meeting strangers.
Thanks Jake for all the info and letting us share in your trip. Hope to do some of this myself in the near future. It's been a couple of decades since I took an epic trip. Beyond ready for another. Ride safe
Excellent book choice by the way. Thanks for the encouragement and transparency. I’ve always wanted to do this but the camping and route planning seems scary. Thanks for a shot of courage.
thank you for the videos ..and beautiful songs.. whenever i feel impatient about my tour ( which i m planning todo this summer) , i watch ur videos ,an listen songs..
Thanks for doing this video. The trip series of videos was awe inspiring. It’s single handed my motivated me to get on my Scrambler and see the country. 😊
Thanks Jake, I really enjoyed seeing a Triumph cross America, and to places I've been lucky enough to visit and places that I plan on seeing. Brilliant videos and hope to see more. Stay safe brother. Russ from the UK 🇬🇧
2 weeks ago i got back from a 5200 mile trip. started in ohio. rode sky line dr. blue ridge pkwy. around the smokies then down to key west. up and over to the everglades. up the west side of fla. to new orleans. rode up to get the natchez trace trail then up to nashville then home. sometimes (when it rained) i stayed in a hotel. sometimes i camped (i have a 2 person tent. that way i can fit all my gear inside) in a campground. i once even stayed in the back part of of truck stop (with the managers permission). that was a 12 day trip. getting ready to ride to bar harbor, maine and acadia national park next week. i also want to ride rt.66. pikes peak. (pch) pacific coast hwy. one of these day. keep making those great videos and keep riding.
Yo! Commented on your other video. Got myself a street twin since then and have been practicing around queens and Brooklyn. Hoping to set out late next year on a similar trip around the country. Your video has been such an inspiration.
Yes a motorcycle trip to Switzerland. That would be on my bucket list as well. Barron Von Grumble has a few videos on his trip to Switzerland you can check out if you haven’t seen them.
Very,,very,,good! Editing was amazing. As an old biker on my 56th year of road riding, (started at 15 years old) it's great to see a young fellow like you taking the time to enjoy this great sport of motorcycle riding. I still ride almost everyday with 30 + day long trips through this wonderful country in the summers. I did wonder just how long that switch would last with all those extra keys dangling from it, never a good thing to do. I enjoyed every minute of these 4 videos, thank you!!! Ocala Fl.
Really liked your trip, I have been on many of the roads you have been on. I have a 2012 Triumph Thruxton. I use one of my other bikes for touring. I do alot of dual sport rides. Like your channel.
Love riding! Rode across Vietnam last summer, was a wonderful experience. Funny enough, I've actually done more riding abroad than I have in my home country, in the U.S., ha!
LOVE the videos! This retired 67 year old is planning a solo trip from CA to Boston. I’ll most likely do hotels. Looks like you had a wonderful journey.
I am drawn to your videos, as I am with other RUclips channels (woodworking, crafts, etc) because of your editing as others have said, but more importantly, your avoidance of egocentric/ narcissistic talking. Just great scenary, awesome music, and matter of fact info. Good luck.
I'm sure it was a surprise to see your videos take off and to suddenly get so many subscribers! I think at the time I was researching Triumph Bonnevilles and RUclips suggested your video to me. I loved watching them and the music was amazing. I think I should curate a playlist for when I'm out riding. I also liked that you did the trip on a bike that most people wouldn't consider doing it on. Your videos have definetely planted the seed of planning a big trip with my bike. Safe travels!
As a motorcyclist I drank in your cross-country videos (and downloaded as much of the music as I could figure out, great selections). Now I start in on this video and lo… you drove through familiar north shore backroads, my hometown of Wading River and camp at Wildwood where I grew up playing on the beach. Pretty awesome, Jake. I think your simple aesthetic for videos is a distinctive and worth pursuing if you so decide with the channel.And keep the Indie music references coming in the description with links!
Just discovered your videos, awesome man! You are living the dream. The scenery and routes are fantastic. I'm older now, life happens and it's been about 15 years since I've been in the wind. I sure miss it.
Really good video series,Jake! Awesome music too! Sometime in my lifetime,I hope to motorcycle around to country like you did,but that will present a challenge to my legs! Been on a lot of shorties around Colorado! Well, thanks again and roll safe, brethren!

2 weeks ago i got back from a 5200 mile trip. started in ohio. rode sky line dr. blue ridge pkwy. around the smokies then down to key west. up and over to the everglades. up the west side of fla. to new orleans. rode up to get the natchez trace trail then up to nashville then home. sometimes (when it rained) i stayed in a hotel. sometimes i camped (i have a 2 person tent. that way i can fit all my gear inside) in a campground. i once even stayed in the back part of of truck stop (with the managers permission). that was a 12 day trip. getting ready to ride to bar harbor, maine and acadia national park next week. i also want to ride rt.66. pikes peak. (pch) pacific coast hwy. one of these day. keep making those great videos and keep riding.
Love the song selection
Id listen to ur playlist all dayyyyyyy💕
I’m subscribing in the hope you put out more videos of traveling on your bike, even short weekend getaways!
I’ve been waiting for your movie!
Cooking looks nice.
I’m looking forward to uploading next.
Yo! Commented on your other video. Got myself a street twin since then and have been practicing around queens and Brooklyn. Hoping to set out late next year on a similar trip around the country. Your video has been such an inspiration.
That’s awesome man, quite the place to practice around. I’m glad you found some inspo from those videos! Maybe I’ll catch you around Brooklyn sometime
Thanks for sharing Jake! I am living vicariously through you so keep it up! lol
Yes a motorcycle trip to Switzerland. That would be on my bucket list as well. Barron Von Grumble has a few videos on his trip to Switzerland you can check out if you haven’t seen them.
Very,,very,,good! Editing was amazing. As an old biker on my 56th year of road riding, (started at 15 years old) it's great to see a young fellow like you taking the time to enjoy this great sport of motorcycle riding. I still ride almost everyday with 30 + day long trips through this wonderful country in the summers. I did wonder just how long that switch would last with all those extra keys dangling from it, never a good thing to do. I enjoyed every minute of these 4 videos, thank you!!!

Hello Jake, Love from Indonesia. Thanks for sharing. Now i have motivation to start ride my motorcycle for a long trip. Stay safe and Health Jake 👍👍👍
Really liked your trip, I have been on many of the roads you have been on. I have a 2012 Triumph Thruxton. I use one of my other bikes for touring. I do alot of dual sport rides. Like your channel.
It nice to see beautiful places somewhere else! I love it! Keep up the good work! And also good vlog and nice attitude!
Thanks Jaime! Will do!
Awesome trip, video & music! I’ll be watching for what’s next. Let me know if you come to Oklahoma.
Love riding! Rode across Vietnam last summer, was a wonderful experience. Funny enough, I've actually done more riding abroad than I have in my home country, in the U.S., ha!
LOVE the videos! This retired 67 year old is planning a solo trip from CA to Boston. I’ll most likely do hotels. Looks like you had a wonderful journey.
you are a positively genuine guy, that's what makes the best out of your vlog, greetings from Italy.
I am drawn to your videos, as I am with other RUclips channels (woodworking, crafts, etc) because of your editing as others have said, but more importantly, your avoidance of egocentric/ narcissistic talking. Just great scenary, awesome music, and matter of fact info. Good luck.
I'm sure it was a surprise to see your videos take off and to suddenly get so many subscribers! I think at the time I was researching Triumph Bonnevilles and RUclips suggested your video to me. I loved watching them and the music was amazing. I think I should curate a playlist for when I'm out riding. I also liked that you did the trip on a bike that most people wouldn't consider doing it on. Your videos have definetely planted the seed of planning a big trip with my bike. Safe travels!
The Abolition of Man - C. S. Lewis. Nice book
Use to do road trips all over Europe. Your vids brought back memories wich slipped away…. Thank you.
To keep it short, you’re an absolute inspirational!
As a motorcyclist I drank in your cross-country videos (and downloaded as much of the music as I could figure out, great selections). Now I start in on this video and lo… you drove through familiar north shore backroads, my hometown of Wading River and camp at Wildwood where I grew up playing on the beach. Pretty awesome, Jake. I think your simple aesthetic for videos is a distinctive and worth pursuing if you so decide with the channel.And keep the Indie music references coming in the description with links!
Just discovered your videos, awesome man! You are living the dream. The scenery and routes are fantastic. I'm older now, life happens and it's been about 15 years since I've been in the wind. I sure miss it.
I'd love to see another trip!
So would I!
just watched your road trip videos... Great content man! Thanks for taking the time to share!
Really good video series,Jake! Awesome music too! Sometime in my lifetime,I hope to motorcycle around to country like you did,but that will present a challenge to my legs! Been on a lot of shorties around Colorado! Well, thanks again and roll safe, brethren!
Hey Jake, you are such an inspiring and unassuming guy. Your videos are excellent and I wish you all the best! Thanks for sharing.
