    The most amazing part of this is how they managed to turn their bikes around in that helicopter.

      I love that someone caught this detail. Lol. We wondered about the continuity when we shot it, but figured, they are stunt riders.... they would figure out how to turn them around in there.

      OH MY GOD. I have watched this video probably about a dozen times over the years, and I legitimately thought these were places all around the globe, like the section intros claim. I just googled them all and they're fictional places. I need to know where all the places are so I can ride them now that I finally bought a Tiger after watching Icon's videos all these years. I can make some guesses: Tillamook, Florence, Christmas Valley, Hood, Bachelor?

    • @phlewid
      @phlewid Месяц назад +1

      @@SamChou You only missed on Christmas Valley... although it was a candidate when we scouted locations. And the big desert at the end is the Alvord Playa, of course.

    Awesome! Love the humor! I've been researching which adventure bike I wanted to buy. I have a Triumph street bike and love it. Now I am sold on the Tiger 800 XC. Icon could have chosen any adventure bike but they chose the Tiger. That says alot.

Im about to go on a trip through some barrels and stair and boxes in the city before heading to the Rainforest and mud, then on to the alps for some snow riding. After that im going to the desert, how ever i wont touch any nuklearbombthingy so i just skip that and go home to a hot chick and a dark voiced black dude scaring the sh..t out of me.. :)

      @wonderbubble3980 10 лет назад

      *****
      Having a bike slightly smaller than theirs in a garage with much more space that isn't running and is thus in the process of disassembly....yeah probably easier than wheelieing it and turning it around on one wheel. Shit's heavy yo.
