Thanks... Yes, we are extremely fortunate and lucky to have such wilderness on our doorstep. I do NOT take this for granted at all and get out and try to explore as much of it as I can. BP
Hey Brent. Pleased to see you enjoyed Mt Samuel and Buggery Gorge. They really are great fun ! Stunning drone and camera photography. Thanks for taking us along.
Great video again Brent. As an Aussie who has been living out of Australia for the past 27 years, your trips and videos truly make me homesick. The footage is really inspiring.
It's amazing how the narration and drone footage just kicks up the viewing quality a number of notches compared to other adv riding videos. these are put together well, mate.
@@brentbat I live in SA and doing my motorcycle licence in a few weeks, I love watching adv bikes travelling and in action. One day when I have the riding experience I can go camping with my bike 👌
Well... Pt 3 coming.... you're spoiling us Brent, can't wait. A picture speaks a thousand words. An excellent watch my friend made even better by well chosen music and plenty of wicked drone footage. What a bonus, and you didn't crash it, I hope.
Brent, wow you captured the riding so well in this episode. As others have said your creative work is above and beyond. I just wanted to jump on my bike and join in on the super flowy tracks you were riding. 4 X Austrian Thumper Fun. As a Canadian I really had no idea there was such dramatic geography in Australia. I think you have done your country great justice with this series. I suspect a lot more people are going to now want to ride your magnificent lands. Oh and by the way Skydio better be sending you their next new drone as you are doing an amazing job of demonstrating how great their product is. The camp cooking footage was a welcome addition although the Italians might not agree on your assessment of the pasta dish LOL. Big thanks as always.
Wow, what a brilliant couple of videos. I found them because I have been thinking of taking an adventure bike there. After seeing your videos I am definitely wanting to plan a trip with mates. Thank you for your time in producing this…
Appreciate the 3-D mapping to show the topography. The tracks look more substantial than what they actually turned out to be - rather Spartan! Great to share the ride with some new friends.
Fantastic video and ride! I have to challenge you though to put the Utah BDR on your list. You wouldn’t believe how stunning the terrain and the the amount of change in surroundings can be. The Utah BDR Starts off in red rocks and desert sand. Then you begin climbing into junipers and almost a white rock. You then hit the Moab area which is red rock like your in mars. You would think that’s enough but no it is time to hit the mountains and lakes which are like mixing elk city to pine in Idaho with a bit of Colorado mountains. I am a bit bias as I am the Utah BDR ambassador however I should swing you my way because I rise a 701 as well lol! Thanks for the videos and the tutorials very much! Cheers
I just got back from my flinders ranges adv ride. Mt Samuel track was a real fun ride, thanks for sharing. I got my super tenere xt1200z through Mt Samuel OK, it was was fun but challenging like you say.
Yes, Mt Samuel is definitely do-able on a big bike... Plenty of challenges, but nothing that should stop you. I'm glad that you enjoyed it. It is a wonderful Adventure ride. Did you do Skytrek?
@@brentbat no unfortunately i missed that one, but did a lot around arkaroola and also did that track through the aboriginal reserve and out along that no through road. There was so much great riding out there! Ill be back next year more prepared for sure!
Fantastic, great commentary and video footage. I always wondered what it was like to ride through these parts of the Flinders and your drone and riding footage complemented beautifully.
Looks like a great ride! Thanks for sharing these as I followed from your comment over in an American ride through Idaho. I think I'm like you in that offroad is more fun, having to "problem solve" every other second in technical rides is good for the mind & soul. Not to mention the scenery and traded stories with like minded folk.
What a ride - amazing scenery and so well captured and narrated. I would absolutely love to do this ride - if it wasn’t halfway around the world 😉 cheers from Germany- keep up the good content- Oliver
Awesome video presentation. I rode my DL1000 to the Flinders ranges but due to the extreme corrugated gravel roads I wasn't able to do anywhere what you have done so thanks for showing me what I missed out on. Safe travels.
I love that Husky 701 exhaust note--Brent. "My" new Himmy 450 (arriving March) seems to have lost the similarly ballsy thumper note that the Himmy 411 had; I guess you can't have everything--I didn't want to have to take the tank off every 5K to do the valve clearances--knowing me I would have snapped a fuel hose connector every second time :(( .
Believe it or not, I ride a modern Scrambler and find the lone dirt roads where I set my own pace the best. 0 traffic stress. Road less travelled. Exploring.
Your drone Skydio is really good for tracking motorcycle riding! I used to have the DJI Mavic Pro, Air 2 and they’re quite OK, now I switched to the DJI Mini 3 Pro for lighter more compact luggage but it’s not good for tracking the ride in higher speed. Thinking of having another drone for the job. Cheers!
Hay mate 4 or 5 of us are doing the Flinders in September, would love you to lead our ride and take us to all the cool 😎 places you went , we are all older guys in our 50,s that have been riding most of our life’s on and off road . But it’s fantastic to have someone that has done a ride to an area before so you don’t waste time wondering 💭 we’re to go etc . Yes we have ideas seen the maps watched all the utube flinders rides but first hand knowledge is priceless. I could even get the guys to throw you some coin 🪙 to cover some of your costs etc . We don’t have locked 🔒 in date yet .
Hey there. Thanks for the kind offer, but unfortunately I'm going to be overseas riding a couple of BDRs. However, you have my videos, and I've posted the gpx files all the trails I rode... and I'm more than happy to answer any questions or help out as you plan the trip. Flinders is amazing. So if you want to ask questions or run your itinerary past me, just drop me an email at brentbat@gmail.com Brent
Brent, very recent follower here, mate I just thoroughly enjoy what you present. Gotta love that drone of yours, what an amazing gadget that misses all the trees at low altitudes and speed. I flick your videos to a good mate of mine to watch also.. we are both starting to think about more off road bike trips again. Love ya work mate. I look forward to more 👍🏼
What a great job you've done in showing off the Flinders Ranges. I rode it with a group last year but the few paltry photos I have don't compare to your epic production. I agree its a magnificent place. Better than the Vic high country? I disagree but I'm biased as I live here.
Brent... wash your mouth out.... "Best Adventure Ride" in SA.... no way ! 😀 Watching the Skydio dodge in and out, under and over its an amazing piece of kit.
Midroll ads drive traffic away and lower 'Retention' scores. No one lets Midroll Ads run. I let opening and closing ads run, in support of content creators, and encourage others to do the same. I always close out any video when if the midroll ads start appearing.
Excellent Oli... Oh.. you are the 701 guy. Yeah, I've been tick-tacking with Nerb about his ride and recommended he add Mt Samuel. You guys will love it. Your trip looks epic.
@@mototrailz Oh Yeah, Nerb mentioned there was a couple of WR250s going....OMG You guys must be masochists doing 28 days and big distances on your 250s. Better you than me.
Ahhh You crack me up.... yes... you are 100% right.... they aren't really mountains in the true sense of the word... and definitely not for Kiwis.... but for us Aussies.... they are relatively speaking mountains :-). Would love to get to NZ one of these days for an adventure.
Just brilliant, You actually take us along with you. ? After having done lots of road and track days on the 701, will you keep it for a while. Could it be the unicorn bike. Any niggles with it.
Hi there, Yes, I love the 701. It is my Unicorn bike based on the riding I do (more technical adv riding). I'm fitting a bigger tank to it, and I have some cracking adventures planned for this year. So yes. I love my 701.
Hi Brent. Awesome experience. We are planning a Flinders trip for last week of Feb 24. I’m concerned about the high median temperatures for this time of year. What month did you travel in the Flinders? Cheers Dave.
Hello Brent, thank you so much for all the videos you do and sharing your adventures, Beautiful. A couple questions if you don't mind, do you always use the filters? Do you still record the sound with a lapel mic in your pocket or jacket ? I have watched all your videos on gopro set up and am new to it so I'm learning.
Hi there Jason Yes, I always tend to use ND filters because they make my footage more cinematic and less "hectic" if used properly. Yes, I have the lapel mic rigged in in my jacket and use it (except where I forget to plug it in). So that is why I don't have any wind noise on my gopro footage. Enjoy learning... you'll find your video quality improves quickly. Brent
Hmm, it looks like you snuck in a little low drone footage anyway. Great short video. I need to get back to Australia again one of these days if it ever stops being politically crazy.
Hey Harley, no while I was within the NP I didn't fly the drone at all. People will report you and I could easily cop a hefty fine. However, I did use my 360 video camera which created the Over-the-shoulder angle.
@@brentbat that's about as good as it gets man! I'm sure some of those parts can be blistering in the hot season! We did the Mid-Atlantic BDR mid April, riding along about 65-70°F, and my phone came across and said "up to 5" of snow tomorrow" Sure enough, we got snowed in for a couple days! I posted a video up on the channel if ya wanna check it out, think it's part 3 (the blizzard) It was a great route. I'll head over that way someday if all goes well. Stunning from the looks of it, and I know the camera can't catch a 1/4 of it. Appreciate the videos man!
@@PSBEadventures I'm surprised you got such big fluctuations in temp in mid-April.... but I guess that makes the adventure. I'm doing two BDR's this year and looking forward to them. I'll check out your channel when I get a moment.
@@brentbat same here man, I figured we'd be fine. The MABDR heads straight north and I figured we'd get a bit of cool, but not blizzard! The people made the trip man, I live just south of the MABDR southern start, but folks up there are living like I grew up. Like 40 years ago, which for me can be a good thing maybe! It was a great trip! We hope to do the Idaho bdr next summer hopefully. For sure, if you get bored check out my BDR series, especially the wood stove one!
Dear Brent, a very inspiring video of your adventures in the Flinders Ranges. I am preparing to head to flinders myself early July. I was wondering if you can share the map of this ride you did on this day. Best regards, Peter
Hey Peter Yes, I'm planning to share the gpx files for all 8 days of my trip... I'm probably about 7-10 days away from publishing them, but if you need them faster than that, then drop me an email at brentbat@gmail.com and I'll shoot them straight out to you.
Hi Brent, love your work mate and your adventures. I’m heading down to the Flinders for a week in October on my FE 350, and have noticed in your comments that you have published the GPX files for this trip. Where can I find these ? Cheers, Chris.
Great video's Brent, I agree, you've done a fantastic job of documenting your rides and sharing it with the world. I will be buying a Husky 701 later this year and getting out and about myself. Getting hold of the OEM LR tank kit is not going to be easy or fast so I'll have explore other options in the interim. I look forward to seeing more from you. Would you be able to share which drone you have or recommend please Brent? Great job 👍🇦🇺😊
Hey Scott, Glad you are getting a 701, I love that bike. Regarding fuel options, there are a ton out there... I've been using the standard tank for the last year and only needed to carry a bladder once, but I think I'm going to fit the 6L Rade tank under the seat.
@Brent Pearson thanks for your reply Brent, yeah the Trade Garage one gives you 5.9litres after you remove the OEM air-box, and you can get an IMS set too but then you have a fuel cap for each side although they should have a cross feed balance tube. Also going to get a Twin Air tank strainer to filter any rubbish out. Yes there's plenty of options. Can't wait! 😀🤙

Amazing ride, pretty incredible how the Skydio navigates around the trees at pace!
Brent, you have exceeded your own high standards - an outstanding video capturing the Flinders beautifully. Thank you!
Love yr vds, undoubtedly the best adv channel. Greetings from Brazil.
One the best Flinders Ranges ADV RUclips video presentations for sure, well done.
Another great adventure, with some excellent video production. Well done, Brent.
Those were some pretty great shots! I really envy you for your wild nature!

Great video again Brent. As an Aussie who has been living out of Australia for the past 27 years, your trips and videos truly make me homesick. The footage is really inspiring.
Thats some crazy country! I'm getting thirsty just watching this video.
It's amazing how the narration and drone footage just kicks up the viewing quality a number of notches compared to other adv riding videos. these are put together well, mate.
Thanks... It's a labour of love. I just posted my newest trailer... Im going BACK to the Flinders in a couple of weeks.

Brilliant. Great images and well documented.
After the phone the sock and the jumper falling off that’s when you were thinking it’s better riding alone
Well... Pt 3 coming.... you're spoiling us Brent, can't wait. A picture speaks a thousand words. An excellent watch my friend made even better by well chosen music and plenty of wicked drone footage. What a bonus, and you didn't crash it, I hope.

Absolutely brilliant. Thanks for another great video, you've got me and a friend inspired to get the bikes out again. Can't wait for no. 3. Keep safe.
That is great that my videos have inspired you to get back out on the bikes. Enjoy.
Appreciate the 3-D mapping to show the topography. The tracks look more substantial than what they actually turned out to be - rather Spartan! Great to share the ride with some new friends.
Thank you , wonderful editing and balance to the series. Enjoyed watching the adventure from our beautiful southwest desert in Arizona
I love Arizona. A beautiful part of the world. The Southwest is one of my favourite areas.
Loved it mate can’t wait till I do it.

Also going to get a Twin Air tank strainer to filter any rubbish out.
Yes there's plenty of options. Can't wait! 😀🤙
Not for the novice riders that's for sure .2 &half hour loop once inside the gate
