The WORST ADV Bike Crash I've Seen + Good Times in the Desert: RevZilla Get On ADV Fest 2023
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 авг 2024
- The 2023 Get On ADV Fest presented by @RevZilla and Rever was one hell of a good time in the desert. It was an amazing four days of test rides, amazing food, awesome people, exploring the desert on motorcycles, and the absolute worst ADV bike crash I've ever seen. @ExploreAdventureMoto and I had an absolute blast at the 2023 ADV Fest, despite the fact that he very nearly destroyed his Africa Twin by cartwheeling it in the sand, narrowly avoiding having it land on him.
If you're interested in the 2023 Get ON ADV Fest, there's still time to sign up for the Black Hills version in July. More info here: www.revzilla.c...
We had such a great time at this year's Get On ADV Fest and I'm very much looking forward to next year's event.

Thanks for riding and hanging out! Great times! I felt so bad for Travis after that crash, what a bummer. I hope he is doing better and that he gets his nice AT fixed up.
Great riding with you my man.
I finally seen Explore Adv Moto’s wreck I kept hearing about. Damn it looked rough. Looks like some awesome riding and views there. I can’t wait to be completely done with my move to Montana and get back out riding. Thanks for bringing us along Dork.
Surprise cameo! We gotta get out and ride together!
I wholeheartedly agree.
Never expected to see you here Spite!
@@josephbishop3231 I'm a secret/not so secret ADV enthusiast.
@@spitescorner you have a KLR so definitely an ADV enthusiast! Come on out to the Giant Loop Rally!
I'm pretty sure Travis has ridden for a long time and I hope he is OK tomorrow (Day of crash hurts. day after is another story lol). Heavy bikes (350-400lbs on up) off-road are no bueno. Unless you are in tip top shape and have cat balance, they just are not plan A for off-road for me, but then I'm old now and getting just my leg over the bike can be an effort 😀.
So nice of Travis to provide you content. 😊
Gonna do the opposite of roast you for your beer comments.
You are absolutely correct about microbreweries and hops here in the PNW. My partner compares it to hot sauce. Sometimes hot sauce is great, but these places add hops like those restaurants that add hot sauce just to say their food is spicy.
Reasonable hops solidarity!
Dude, "never hesitate" had me dying 🤣🤣
I think that was Achilles played by Brad Pitt in ‘ Troy’
As a previous Africa Twin owner, I felt that crash!!
Looks like a great event and helpful to see what others do / bring to make the desert tolerable (RV, pop-up, seating, etc). A variety of rides and the chance to test out bikes in real-world situations would be a sweet combination. Thanks for sharing your experiences and commentary.
Another top-notch quality family entertainment video you got here Ben. Great bunch of people just chilling, eating, riding, laughing, and crashing. DOH!! So glad Travis is OK. His pride might have taken a hit on that one, but it now makes for a great story around a campfire.
They need to do one on the east coast. Preferably New England but I'll take anyplace that doesn't take 2 days to get to.
Damn that was a righteous get off!
The judges score that a 10.
I’m glad Travis is pretty much OK afterwards.
Kyle Bradshaw posted a good get off as well, I’ll have to go back and check that out again.
The event looks like a total win and who wouldn’t want to ride the Mojave?
Thanks for posting Ben. 👍
Kyle shot the 3rd person view of Trav. I borrowed it for this video ;)
@@DorkintheRoad Awesome! I really like how you guys help each other out with stuff like this.
ADV is a community of cool people. 👍
Just remember.The ground gets harder as you get older and those hits will come back to haunt you. My shoulder hurts just watching that crash.
I'm sorry that Travis crashed and glad he is okay. I ride that area and the sand in the video is not very deep compared to some of the real sand washes in the area. I don't think he crashed due to the sand, he crashed because he didn't slow sufficiently for the intersection and the bumps that are often found there. He should have slowed just due to all the people stopped there. That is a warning on its own. Plus, a 530 lb bike with 9" suspension shouldn't be ridden like a 260 lb bike with 12" suspension. A 450 would have sucked that up and kept going. In any case, that is a fun area with a variety of trails and roads to ride.
Was nice to have be able to chat with you! Until next time!!
Kilometers per hour… remember. As Monty Python would say… “nothing to see here.”
One of your most entertaining videos to date. Thank for taking us along for the experience.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful trip! Great inspiration and amazing scenery
Travis even has the letters "BA" on his tent, for badass!
Ben: as a PNW'erner, I am surprised you're not a fan of Rainier beer. It's not brewed in the PNW anymore but in Golden, CO (hint, hint). It's inexpensive ($20 for a 30 pk at Costco), goes down like water, and is "mountain fresh." A commercial ad featured a motorcycle that revved "Raiiiiiiiii-nieeeeeeeer-Beeeeeeeer" while zooming by along a mountain road was notable in the late 1970s and early 1980s. What more can you ask for in a beer?
Have a nice trip see you next fall lol sorry I have twisted humor >^..^
Bama guys hearing 93 degrees and near zero humidity and wishing it was that cool here..... I would have loved to make this rally. Looks amazing and great video Dork!
Big Rock Moto, Ian, is awesome. By far one of the best.
S
he seems sketchy to me
Sketchy-ish at best.
Looks like a great event and ao many great people
I bought in to the South Dakota ADVFest back in January. I can't wait for something like this!
Great video this week. Thanks dork.
Dork, I had a blast watching this video! Thank you so much for sharing this! I would have loved to go to this event, but I am too far away for that to be practical. So it was awesome to get to see what it was like and I thank you for that. I loved the off road CRF450 ride. Truly some amazing scenery!! Please keep up the excellent work! Best regards from Brasilia, Brazil.
9:48 That song, to that clip...LMAO 😂
Glad he's ok. Of course. 👍✌️
Sounds like a beer I'd like. Have you tried the Hop Valley Bubble Stash?
I’m totally with you on IPA. Give me a good later or Pilsner any time!!
You ALWAYS have the best shirts. I'm jealous.
FYI Ben, those windmill blades are 80 feet long each. He towers are 150 tall.
Glad Travis is OK and only sore. Most high-side crashes do not end that well. Devine intervention was defiantly at work there.
I recognise Jocelyn from a BDR video I watched. She's awesome.
Glad Travis is ok. Hope he has full coverage insurance on that AT. I did the same kind of damage on the very same bike. Claim was over 7k
He is doing the repairs himself.
Friggin awesome video loved the upside down bit just livin the dream thanks for sharing
I was in Portland last year for work and fell in love with "Johnny Utah Pale Ale". Damn good beer! I can't find it here in NM though.
@DorkintheRoad are you planning on attending GET On Adv Fest in the Black Hills?
Never thought I'd see Spite in thus channel
Fun times in the desert!
Maybe I will make it down there next year. I contemplated going this year. Part of that plan was to hit a dual sport event in NORCAL on the way home, but the heavy snowpack cancelled that event, so then I couldn’t justify the expense of driving so far for just a few days of riding. I just need to plan in advance better and make a “vacation plan” and figure out things to do to and from the ADV fest, then I won’t be so skittish about the expense of going that far. I’m too much of a spur of the moment person, so planning doesn’t generally happen!
I’ll be at Touratech for sure. I might go to Sturgis ADV Fest.
Awesome!
Looks like a great time I am excited for the Black Hills. Hopefully I can sell my Moto Guzzi MGX-21 in time to buy a proper Adv bike (Norden Expedition).
Consider posting some .gpx tracks and places to ride on the way to and from event
@adv_agenda☑️
Another great trip , great hanging with you and Travis ! I can't wait till next year ✌️
Finally, a cool pair of Ray Ban's. No more "Dork", "Cool Guy In The Road". Thanks for the video.
😎😎
Epic crash! Fun video. I love Zakar base!
Fyi. Those windmill towers are much taller than you think. I use to haul those windmill blades. Our trailer was stretched to 130 feet. Blades i hauler were 123 foot long. And they dont come close to the ground. Pretty sure those towers are 150 feet or more. Possible 300 ft. Cant remember cause never hauled the tower sections that are 3 pieces. The hub is around 14 ft in diameter....just some wind farm info for ya. And man, great catch the wipe out.
for how the wreck looked, Travis is very lucky no broken bones and also minimal damage to the bike in respect of how hard he it the bump and the ground lol
Very nice. Great job keep up the continued well-rounded content!
So cool to see Spite in your video, my two favorite mototubers.
I grew up riding in the sand...well...still growing up.....don't mind the sand at all
Oooooh. I might have to get in on the Black Hills event for my new moto channel.
Enjoyed the video and I ride an Africa Twin. Tell Travis I try to be a little more conservative in my riding. Wish I had run into you at the GetOn ADV fest and I really enjoy your content.
Hey Dork, are you (and others) gonna be at the South Dakota one too?
Great video! Glad Travis is all good
That desert area is one the most bitchin beautiful places there is to ride. Interesting that you would find an environmental eyesore (and bird killer) as a photo op moment in those beautiful surroundings. Good for the environment (?) - phewy - I loathe seeing those things (and solar panels) marring the beautiful desert landscape. Sorry I don’t usually make negative comments but that’s how bad I despise those things (hulking gigantic windmills). I’ll end on a good note that’s a super fun event would like to attend again - hope it keeps going.
Travis ouch. Great content! I thought the camera on in bag with sub titles and clown music was funny. Looks like a real well done event👍
4fitty looking specky👌
Looks like really great food. Did it taste as good as it looked?
Going to have to give a thumb up for mentioning Tyler at RA he is a god.
100% agree
The Trav abides 😆
That looks like a blast. Good people and motos 👍
is there a video where you are telling us about your trailer/ camper?
Dork, i know its a haul for you, but have you/do youplan to attend the sturgis goaf?
what is the mount you use on your helmet for your RS1?
Tiger 900 FTW! Mojave is a little outside of my range, but I’ll be at the South Dakota one in 2024!
When you sat down for a beer I had to get up and walk to the market to get a beer. Un pause video and continue.
Fangirling out meeting Spite hahaha good stuff
I was stoked!
@@DorkintheRoad I would be too!
travis is a bad ass
Dude I love your videos but put the 450L away and ride the Rally! Just kidding but Noraly is on break and I'm jonesing for some Rally...
I'm with you. I live in Portland and I hate IPAs too.
Oh my God finally a like-minded soul!
Looks like a great time! Glad your friend Travis is OK. That could’ve been bad. Were you having overheating problems with the Insta360 cameras? I just purchased one a few weeks ago, but haven’t used it in hot weather yet. 🤔
Only overheating because I was charging while using I think
Me and my brother ride dualsports and watch your channel its funny because i told him he has the same riding style as you and recommended a video and he was already subscribed and had watched almost every video already
lol great minds.
Kilometers per hour - got it👍
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Thanks!
Thank you!
Is there Quad riding available next to rally site for wife to ride or do you need street legal to access more of the OHV area?
Need street legal
A question from a total noob looking for a bike like V-Strum 800, even 650 but as non electronic as possible. I know it's going to be more in the line of Duel Sport, but want as dumb a rig as possible.
Suggestions please
Looks like Travis hit the very edge of the slightly hidden embedded rock (which was hidden by sand)
You need to get into homebrewing sir! Then you can have GREAT beer just the way you like it! Brewed and paired with Mr. Puff Puff.
I have considered it, but I'm fat enough. I can't imagine how much weight I'd put on with beer just lying around all the time.
No KTM booth?
The new camera overheated? Thought you were past that with the new one vs GoPro.
90+ degrees + charging while riding is not good for any camera. I ran it without the extra battery connected the next day and it was fine.
Man I wish I could hit more of these kinda events!
Is that what that beer was responsible for 🌪🌪🌓🌗. Whats the requirements to Test riding the bikes?
Having spent a shi*t-ton of miles on both adventure bikes and sport bikes... There's no way a Tiger 900 with 100 hp is anything like riding a liter bike that weighs 100 lbs less and has ~200 hp. Don't get me wrong - most modern ADV bikes make enough power to have a fun ride on the streets, but there's lots of reasons you'd want a sportbike instead.
There are reasons some people might want a sportbike instead. I'm not one of those people.
DUDE!!! You need to ride a current model Sport Bike if you think a Tiger 900 is "just as fast". LMAO!!!
That's what happens when you ride tanks off road
Yes I stopped to do a welfare check on Travis. You did a good job on this vid and covered the event well!
It's cuz I didn't edit it ;)
@@DorkintheRoad sometimes editing is overrated 😂
Why buy a sportbike when you can buy an ADV bike which is just as fast?
Have you run an ADV down the quarter mile? The amount of ADV's that can dip into the low 11's or high 10's is pretty slim.
😊👍🙏
Almost a year since you posted this but, as a fellow Oregonian, I have to agree fully with the state of Oregon micro brews. They all seem to be in a race to see how hoppy and bitter of an IPA they can make. BTW, IPAs were brewed by the English to survive the months long sailing ship trip around Africa (hops being a preservative) for the Englishmen in India... not to taste good
Coors light is not GOOD beer!
I'm my opinion 😅
I literally never said it was good. I said it's easy to drink and I don't get hungover.
@@DorkintheRoad Great video as always, unfortunately I don't get your american big spaces here in england but do have europe on my doorstep! I'm an IPA man myself 😀
@@jonathantatler I'd love to visit and ride in England
Last I've seen you were just throwing a sleeping bag and ice chest in that trailer. You've done a lot of add on to that trailer that you haven't shown us doing!!! Shame, shame!!
Different trailer. I made a whole video about it a few months ago.
@@DorkintheRoad Okay, found it, forgot about the toy hauler you found. Did watch it back then but has been awhile. Thanks.
