Australia's so weird, and I mean that as a compliment. It's so different, and instantly recognisable. Great video, thank you. I hope I can drive across or around Australia someday.
@Matthew Schinazzi I was tempted to delete the comment (I can do that as the Account holder) but I thought I’d leave it there in the name of ‘free speech’. Good on you for standing up for ‘us’. Thanks for your support.
Even with the corruption and threat of communism we the freedom fighters & live freely stand up & fight then keep going.. The best part of being Aussie we can leave the city and head bush!
Mate, loved watching every second of it. Your commentary are amazing, and thanks for pausing where all the road signs are, etc.. Loved it, thank you and keep'em coming!
Great video. Really appreciate your commentary and doing a freeze frame of the road signs, etc so we can get our bearings. My family tried to drive to Alice when I was small, but the heat killed the car on the far side of Coober Pedy, forcing us to turn back, and we limped back 100's of Km home to SA (driving slowly, regularly re-filling what was left of radiator with super precious water). One day I'd love to travel all the way around and across Australia ... One day ...
Love it when I get a RUclips notification that Mongrel Dog P. has posted another vid! Thanks Steve, a pleasure to watch as usual - you Aussies have a beautiful country. Cheers from the land of the Springboks :-)
I love your banter....I find your voice very relaxing. We are very lucky to live in such a spacious and beautiful country. I can't get enough of that gorgeous red earth, it's in my veins now that I relocated to the outback. Really enjoyed your vid and I felt like I was sharing in your adventure ❤
More great memories and waiting with baited breath to see if the rain ruined the CSR crossing like it did for me! 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️😂🙏 Loving the landscape & it’s colours! Thanks for sharing Steve…carry on! 😜👍🏁🏍🏍🏍💨
@@mongreldogproductions hahaha yep indeed I meant the GCR! 🤦🏻♀️😂 Watching with envy whilst at work and you’re making it hard to concentrate! 🙄😂🙏 Green with envy 100%! 😂👍🏍🏍🏍💨🏁
Loved this one as well...... that countryside out there.... what beauty!! I am sorry that the next one is the last....... I hope you are still out and about organising another of these epic trips!!
Hi Steve. Greetings ! Quite and adventure. Magic scenery and great adventure riding. It really is magnificent country when you stop to admire it. Thanks for taking us along.
YT brought me here, don’t know why, maybe it’s cos I watch ‘Itchy boots’ but you got my interest. Being a 57 year old Scot, an ex biker, having lived in a similar continent and a passion to visit Australia, I’ve decided to join your club and follow your exploits. Ride safe fellas.
Wife and I had Just watched this video as it came out last Year, and we had conveniently just hit the road on the way to Uluru and Alice springs. Steve you have been a massive inspiration to us. Picked up some Adventure bikes and are keen to see the outback of Aus in person :)
Will be in Alice for the Finke Desert Race in a week's time. woo hoo... your video brought back lots of memories of 2021 race and travelling all threw NT .Met Rozz at Macca's another great motorcycle blogger and a member of WA Adventure Rider's. 👍 love your work Steve.🏍
Hi Sam, Roz and I communicate often...she blames me (partly) for fuelling her desire to go Adventure Riding. Enjoy the Race (Finke). Thanks for watching.
awesome stuff, been there 30yrs ago since I've travel that road, still looks the same 🤫🤣 New Subscriber and we hit the bell, cool content, cheers🍺🍻🍺🍻 KC Cradle Mountain Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺🤝🇦🇺😎👍
I climbed Ayers Rock in 1978 before all the development in that area; just a campground and a couple of pubs out there then. Took a flight over the rock and out to the Olga's as well. Very impressive scenery. I was out there to meet a group from the WA BMW club who had ridden the Gunbarrel Hwy. on two R90S' w/- sidecars and a solo R100/7. We then all travelled into the Alice for the Centre Rally.
The BMWMCCWA is full of old's n bold's. Could have been Goldie who was on that trip but there are some of the older blokes that have moved on. It is very civilised around Uluru and the Olgas now.
@@mongreldogproductions. Bear and Harry Threlfall on one, Pat Henderson and mate in the other, and Dutch bloke Gerd on the 100/7. Gerd only had a single seat on his bike and won the heart of a German Backpacker, so we swapped bikes. I had an R100S. Sadly, my bike got reversed over by a tourist bus (with Gerd valiantly trying to back pedal out of the way) at the entrance to the Old Telegraph Station. Good times.
I had to laugh at your picture of not the right foot ware for walking. Very interesting video of places I will never personally travel to but enjoyed seeing through your journey.
Reminds me of riding in Northern Canada through the Yukon and NWT on the Dempster highway, but desert! Longest stretch up there was 410 kms. Just looked up BMW tattoo on an image search, and noticed someone screenshotted your tattoo from this vid and put it on their site! I guess that's a compliment.
Just found your channel. Great stuff to watch! I love that huge outback sky and endless horizon. Hoping to get up that way next year...if the health holds out. All the best. 👍
Ahhh , more red sands, spinifex, burnt out vehicles, corrugations and expensive fuel. Thanks for showing ya journey or more importantly countryside... 👍👍👍
This has brought back fond memories for me . I did pretty much this ride starting from Kalgoorlie meandering me way all over and eventually up to Darwin and of course back again visiting other areas and back roads on the way back to Kalgoorlie. This was done on my Harley and towing a trailer way back in 1990 when the Gulf war was going on and petrol prices went through the roof. I remember paying $2.30 a liter at the Alice and nearly choked on it . Some of the roads were that bad I had to remove the trailer and skull drag it and the bike through bull dust and loose sand in some cases a couple of hundred meters at a time. The corrugations had to be seen and experienced to believe how truly destructive they can be. And by contrast sometimes ride and tow at over 100 km/h But this was the best adventure I have ever had by far and would love to do it again but now too old to try repeat it. My only regret was doing this ride by myself and not with other like minded mates. About three years ago I did the central road from Kalgoorlie to Darwin in less than 48 hours pretty much non stop apart from filling the fuel from a 44 gallon drum in the van just to pick up a motorcycle and trailer I had bought on eBay. That was a fantastic experience and great drive too but most of the road at least when I went on it was pretty darn good and certainly better than some of our highways.
Another good one Steve. Thanks for sharing. Was up at Uluru via the Oonadatta Track last month on the same bike you have, long dirt roads are magic up that way.
Hi Garry, we are all different. I spent 20 years as a Soldier living like a dog sleeping on the ground. Now I like to sleep in a tent when I can. Thanks for watching.
Very familiar country, I had about a year out at Giles, so passed through a lot of those communuities. Docker river, Warrakuna, Warburton, ect. I know what these roads are like after rain, as you say treacherous. Very enjoyable though.
Nice videos, fun to watch, would like to see more Social interaction (local Color) to make it more interesting. Maybe also some local history also for us here in the States. Thanks.
Thanks for great footage mate. Nice to see good old Tanami track. I hope the last 50km of dirt track around Yuendumu was less corrugated. I will never forget my experience in 2019 and yet to complete the whole track one day soon. Cheers
They have done a bit of work out there in the last couple of years...its been re aligned in some places and not as bad as it used to be. After the Granite's it deteriorates. Thanks for watching.
Meerenie Loop is one of the roads on my list of ‘roads never to do again’. Been there before and didn’t enjoy it. Besides, JP wanted to see Alice. Thanks for watching.
Good stuff Steve. It's obviously rained a bit out there with all the shrubs and grasses growing. That'd be why there are hardly any hoppers or emus near the tracks as they come to the drains for the last of the greenery when it's dry. I reckon it's a bit of luck to have some rain where it hardly gets a drop of H2o. Yes, it can make going a bit tricky but that just makes it more of a challenge you and better viewing for us stuck at home......
Having shared some time in the rain at Yulara campground with you guys, I kind of want to see some more of your offsiders JP and Chris in your videos. You all make a great team. Love your work and can't wait to see why you came back into Yulara....... ?
Hi mg, I thought you would have been a little curious when we passed each other. I check my oil regularly (very regularly)...it doesn't normally use any oil between services (every 10,000km). The engine has done 100,000km. The bike has started to use a bit of oil but not that much that it is a concern. We got to the Olgas/Uluru lookout and I had an oil warning light come on. The oil wasn't low but because i started the bike on a lean i think the engine thought it was low. With 1,200km of Outback to transit through i didnt want to take a chance. I went back and bought a litre of oil (and used 500ml of it). JP and Chris should start their own Channel...this one is all about me. Thanks for watching..next vid (final) out on Friday (I think).
@@mongreldogproductions The oil use could be a by product of the crappy outback fuel you keep putting in the tank! Do a leak down test to find out if the piston rings are still sealing. Could be valve stem seals....They don't like low octane fuel either.
Hey Steve, I bet it was good to have a bit of luxury when you stayed in the cabin, I know it doesn't take long for me to look forward to the basic amenities after a few days in the saddle and sleeping rough in the bush. Your videos always leave me looking forward to the next one! Stay safe mate.
If anyone's curious Opal is a special fuel blend you can't get high from sniffing It was a huge problem in some outback communities especially among the youth from what I understand the introduction of Opal has been a blessing to many of those communities and saved countless lives
Yes, there was and is a serious problem with aboriginals particularly the younger ones sniffing petrol in outback australia, opal fuel has low aroma and doesnt contain any of the properties needed to get high from sniffing it.
@@mongreldogproductions no thank you for the great content I've seen a huge part of the world but for some reason I've never made it up north in my own state hopefully one day I'll get to see it for myself like you have anyways stay safe out there happy riding and keep the great content coming please 👍🇦🇺
@@Steph.98114 I just checked…you are correct. I thought a lot of the ‘outback’ scenes were in SA. Apparently Coober Pedy was used for some scenes in MM2. My bad. I think the MM Museum is in Silverton just out of Broken Hill but I’m no expert. Thanks for your input.
@@mongreldogproductions no issue, I do think some scenes where filmed in south Australia but the magority is Vic. It's only when you get to the next lot of movies after the nukes that it becomes full desert
@@mongreldogproductions Im always watching Steve... just Hurry up and do some more. I really enjoyed the shake down of your bike and what you take that was brilliant
I know Midnight Oil mention it in a song. It seemed pretty mild on the day we were there. All the Communities are dry now so maybe that helps a little.
Hi MM NN, if I remember correctly, we did experience temps in the low 30's (Celcius). We did the trip in May...you wouldn't wanna be out there between November to April. Too bloody hot! Thanks for watching.
