    Bill, you’ve created the most perfect family adventure I’ve seen on motorcycling. Congrats to Kim on the win, she did awesome. You deserve a big double thumbs up for finishing minus one foot peg too. All in all, you’ve provided your viewers with an adventure most of us can only dream about. Keep up the great work. Grandpa’s probably beaming with pride, grandma too.

    So Cool! Best YT video of the day bar none! I started racing in 1972 so I have a real feeling for what its like to race these old things.
    Keeping a Triumph running for a desert race is pretty damned neat. Kim is a hot rod chick! Doing so well on an old bike on a rocky sandy trail! Really good!

  • @othgmark1
    @othgmark1 3 месяца назад

    Looks awesome the enthusiasm you both show for riding heavy short travel bikes in the desert is inspiring. It is too bad that what used to be twisting narrow trails through the sagebrush have been blown out into straight wide roads by Utv's and Atv's. Still plenty of bumps and sand to keep you on your toes though. Perhaps a snow plow for the atv to keep your driveway open. The heater had me green with envy, l remember freezing at night in that same area you were in the night before a race. Climbing into a sleeping bag in the cab of a Datsun with all of your clothes on and still shivering. Great job on the race and the video.

    Man your wife did great. And it's awesome how supportive and happy you were for her race. I think I have some photos of your bike from 2023.
    I was suppose to do the Biltwell this year, had my ticket and everything, but my top end had to be rebuilt and then I didn't have the money to ride across the US. The previous year I had broken my ankle in Mexico resulting in surgery there, so I opted to just spectate the race. 0/2 so far, but maybe next year!

      For some reason it makes me happy when there is interaction between two channels that I follow. 🙂 When I was 16 I wanted a Sports Cub, 56 years later I'm riding a Scrambler 1200 here in the UK, and I can watch YT videos that feature both bikes!

    • @ScramblerStories
      @ScramblerStories 3 месяца назад

      @@rickmancr Hopefully next year I can do it on my 1200. But when I spectated last year, I was so impressed with how many vintage bikes, and Harley Sportsters that were racing. Owning a Vintage Triumph of Husqvarna is definitely a goal, doing a race would be a blast!

    You carried on with the right attitude and made it a family adventure. Life long memories for all of you and especially for the boys since they will have videos that remind them how much fun you had as they were growing up.
    Congrats on the finishing results too. Much better than a DNF.
    Now I want to see the postmortem of the failed footpeg and what you are going to do to make sure it never happens again.
    And a similar look at the right side.
