    I absolutely loved hearing a little bit about your motorcycling and motovlogging journey so far, I can just imagine having you on Wolf Tales telling us all of this experience in greater detail, as much as I've enjoyed my own journey so far, I love hearing other peoples journeys, I find them fascinating finding out how people got into motorcycling and sometimes motovlogging etc.
    Ahah unfortunately there are a lot of stupid people on sport bikes that give us all a bad rep, but you're right I think it is getting better.
    Oooo blueberry muffin YES the best choice.
    Thank you so much for the shoutout mate, your kind words definitely mean a lot to me bro.
    Man I'm so happy you did start a channel, because your videos are so genuine, they're insightful, very well presented and a lot of fun as well, you're doing the sport bikes guys and the motovlogging scene proud mate.
    Keep up the hard work, I promise the subs and views will come, it's just such a grind.
    Great video mate, really good stuff, I hope you and Mrs KG are both well.

There's a whole vlogging episode right there! another great video Kode, I love how you actually vlog, while on the bike unlike a lot of Vlogger channels where they seem to have forgotten the purpose of the ride itself, which is actually riding! The struggle is real huh? You'll make it, you're over half-way there bro! Your audio is really good man! Keep up the great work!

    The Kleb and Sub D got me interested, because it looked like fun. Then I realized it would be a perfect journal of memories. I had garbage cameras to start...then a really cool guy from Oz, Bobber400 sent me a camera that I still use to this day. The vlogger community is awesome, and I'm glad I started. When I'm 80 I can binge watch my younger, fun days.

    Great video bro. I think it's cool you had the courage and motivation to try making RUclips videos. Understandable that it's hard trying to build your channel when there is sooooo much content out there. There is a RUclips video for just about anything you can think of. Glad you haven't given in to frustration because you make pretty cool videos and I like the topics you talk about. Before you started your channel, I didn't even know there was such a thing as moto vlogging. Turns out I actually enjoy it. 😁

Return to riding after 20 years away and wanted to focus on safety training. Folks don’t care to hear that stuff but I will continue on my journey. Keep it up. Ride safe.

KG who cares man you keep your bike in tact you don't injure yourself the footage and sound are always great and the freeway ( if that's what you call it ) is the place to stretch her legs from time to time .I've noticed you touched 60 there at least once too 😉.As far as vlogging goes the thing you need to master is editing and I just can't do it 😁so that's why anything I might do is just fer me to look back on when I start to fall apart . I think the thing is just enjoy your rides and talking to yourself because hey you ain't gonna fall out with yourself (hopefully ) 😁👌👍

    Interesting subject. Had my channel over 12 years, for most of that time, it was used as a personal diary of our travels. A kind of a dumping ground for ride clips.

    Nice video. 👍 I started my channel cause I was watching alot of motovloggers and noticed that there was Noone from my area and I was bored at the time, so I started it. I wasn't expecting much out of it, because I am not much of a talker. But gave it a shot. Then I noticed a couple of others near by started channels. 🤣🤣 But anyways, I enjoy vlogging even though I am not that great at it.
