Joe! I loved watching this video. You are very kind. I have great memories of that day we rode together. You didnt know you would ride with a real live Viking did ya? Haha we are so rich . Will see you soon riding the Holy Smokies ride in June This video warmed my heart. I’m ready for more
My wife and I rode the same routes as you and Broc last summer on the DR. We spent 14 days out there. Camped in a 3 man backpacking tent every night. We are 67 and have been married 47 years. Keep it up brother. We enjoy watching all your videos. You are an inspiration.
It's a very beautiful video. On March 16, the winter tire regulations in Quebec end. I could take my motorbike out again. Your videos make me dream. Thank you so much.
Years ago on my drive to the "daily grind" I passed a small church and saw a sign out front that read "want to get rich quick ? Count your blessings ! " Turns out I'm a very rich Man , thanks for another great video , glad you guys got to share the true riches together...
Your video with Brock is really great also and tells your side of the ride which makes it even better. The drone shot of you each going your own way was epic. As I have told Brock I have a new thumb nail Title for your future rides together this summer. Called “Joe and the Kid” makes sense to me. Ha ha. I’am 77 so have a few years on you but love riding in the dirt also. Rick my riding friend is 76. With both ride Tiger 800’s. So far so good. Well Joe looking forward to watching the continuation of your trip to Virginia. Really enjoyed the podcast with you and Brock. Side note Rick was an airline pilot also. I flew also so seems aviators seem to end up riding motorcycles. Take care! Will be watching!!
Great video Joe! Glad you got to meet the Brickster! I mean the "Viking "😂 I truly hope you make it to TN in the spring. I look forward to you riding with us! God bless you Joe
More times than not, friends met on the trail turn into friends for life! A meal shared, an evening around the campfire and few minutes spent figuring out a route, and you can have a friend from now on! We are absolutely blessed to be able to see what's around the next bend man! Bonus content: CT125 at 2:20 !!!
Yeah, I’m a winter couch potato… watching your videos with a cup of coffee this morning. Like you , “rich” in blessings to get out and adventure. ~GrizzLee
Hah! I Know your no couch potato. Hope Guys understand what I’m saying. I am watching tons of videos myself this winter including your latest on the ORBDR. Great video and story telling. Did a lot of ORBDR last summer from Hood River.
Enjoy your channel and adventures. I'm just north of you in Pennsylvania, right off the MABDR. I often take trips south. Maybe we will meet on the trail some day. Stay rich!
Hey JR. New subscriber here and just binge watched your "how the west was run" series. Getting back into motorcycling this year and picked up a ktm 390 adventure. Sad part is, its winter here in wyoming so no riding anytime soon. But, in the meantime, I am watching all your videos. You have really put the desire into me to do the Wyoming BDR. Hope to see you on the trail someday and awesome job on truly living life to the fullest!!
I am so gratified to hear this kind of response. You live in an awesome State but short season! Thank you so much for watching and I think you will enjoy the 390. Plan to be in the West some this year.
Great video, awesome ride and making friends with Brock the Viking.😂 Life is good. Thanks for sharing JR! I also enjoyed watching Moto Mission Podcast with Brock Gill and you as a special guest. Super interesting getting to know you a bit better, Very entertaining. Keep it up. '' Less fear, more adventure.''
JR - are you willing to share your route information via GPS tracks for your trip to the start of the Wyoming BDR if you have them? Thanks! I have enjoyed all your videos and can't wait for the rest of the series as you cross the country. Jeff
Looking to see what I have. I used IDBDR across Magruder Corridor. Rest was pavement except from Dillon, MT to west yellow stone. That was from Best of Montana Tracks which I found in ADVrider forums. I have that if to pm me on Messenger.
Some wise words at the end. I’ve got 2 continent-crossing machines out in the garage - if I could only get out of the recliner and stop watching other peoples’ adventures! (Winter doesn’t help though)
No. I use a hardened heavy duty Chinese phone (Oukitel) just for navigation. Regular use phone would need one most likely. I keep that one safe in pocket.
@rustyspiker3569. Thanks for asking. I’ve been producing each video “just in time” and got interrupted with travel and family. Will have new one up very soon. At least this weekend.

So fun editing and reliving that day and thanks for the clips that made it flow!
That shot was incredible 👏

That is awesome! Thank you so and congratulations to a lasting moto camping marriage!
What a beautiful and philosophical presentation. We are all lucky to know (of) men like you, showing a good path. Ride safe, JR.
Thank you so much for your comment. Good to know there’s guys (and gals) out there who are on the same pathway.
It's a very beautiful video. On March 16, the winter tire regulations in Quebec end. I could take my motorbike out again. Your videos make me dream. Thank you so much.
I’m getting itchy boots myself!!!

Loved reading this! Does seem motorcycles are an attractive option for former aviators.
It was great seeing you both together. This was a great video, i love watching the DR650 on these adventures
Thanks Man! The DR is so versatile.
Fantastic video Joe. Friends like Brock Gill, then you are rich.
You got that right!
I am rich :)
The video perspective from you and Brock was very interesting. I hope to be riding in my 70's as well.
Hope you can too.
Great videos.
Thank you so much!
Great video Joe! Glad you got to meet the Brickster! I mean the "Viking "😂 I truly hope you make it to TN in the spring. I look forward to you riding with us! God bless you Joe
Thank you immensely! Lord willing and the creeks don’t rise, I’ll be there.

Sounds great!
Great drone shot of you two going your separate ways!!!! Can't wait to get up to Colorado and do some exploring myself this year! Safe travels!!
Three bikes and no drone here! Colorado is magical but can get crowded.
Another great story and video, went over marshal pass the first of October 2023 on my 690 the aspens where prime
I bet they were. Awesome.
I enjoyed your interview on Brock's podcast.. Great job in your adventure series and I hope there's more to come......
I hope so too!
Another great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Cool!
Thanks Frostbite.

Great analogy about getting "rich". That was funny about being friends with a "viking". Great content JR.
Glad you enjoyed it
A real live Viking no doubt.
Great video. Didn’t do much in Salida other than decide to head back.
Thanks Mike! Salida looks like a vibrant cool place.
Great video, awesome ride and making friends with Brock the Viking.😂 Life is good. Thanks for sharing JR! I also enjoyed watching Moto Mission Podcast with Brock Gill and you as a special guest.

Thanks! I will look in ADVrider
This is the young man who rode Trans American Trail. He makes a lot of old guys restless. Now people want to go out and ride!!
"Let's Ride"!

Enjoyed watching. I bought a perfect squeeze phone mount do you use the buzz mount with it ?
No. I use a hardened heavy duty Chinese phone (Oukitel) just for navigation. Regular use phone would need one most likely. I keep that one safe in pocket.
Thanks JR@@jrdepew
JR YOU OK? Missed your video on Sunday the 28th. Hope all is ok.
@rustyspiker3569. Thanks for asking. I’ve been producing each video “just in time” and got interrupted with travel and family. Will have new one up very soon. At least this weekend.
couch potatoes? Do you want me to watch the video or not?🤣
If it's French Fries it's OK! Watch, Eat fries, go ride!!
👍🏼@@jrdepew
Enjoying your channel.
Glad to hear it!
