  • Welcome to Episode 2 of our big tour, friends. We make it into Canada, and down to Niagara Falls. But not before Customs made us wait for what seemed like days.
    For those that keep asking about contributing to the tour series and to the hard drive failure, I thank you very much.
    Any donations made will go directly back into this channel, and can be made via Paypal to;
    rich@vidamusic.co.uk
    Massive thanks to all.
    Rich and the team.

    I used to live 30 minutes from "the Falls" and have been on numerous occasions. I now live 3 hours away and still somehow get to "the Falls" at least once a year. Not to take anything away from the natural majesty an wonder but, this video is probably the first time I was actually glad and excited to go to Niagara Falls! Your enthusiasm is infectious.
    Fabulous videos Richy, you and your mates should be proud of yourselves. Thanks.

    I’ve only been riding since summer, on my little Sinnis terrain I’ve covered some miles already in wales, Forrest of bowland, Yorkshire etc, watching this has made me even more excited about getting my full licence. But there’s still some mad shit I need to box off so I can say I’ve done it all on a 125 🤣😆 superb videos by the way!

    Watching this series last year convinced me to learn to ride a bike again. Passed my test, bought a Triumph Scrambler and looking for a Honda VFR for touring on now. Think I'm going to enjoy the second watch even more than the first. Great work guys. Still fresh five years on!!!

    Great work Richy (and lads)....looking forward to the rest of the tour, love how excited you were to be at Niagara....great spot, when I was there it was -27 degrees C!! (the falls were frozen solid and we had 6 feet of snowfall overnight)....

    • @RichyVida
      @RichyVida  7 лет назад

      +TheMissendenFlyer I would love to see a pic of that! Wow, -27°c! Holy shit balls! What an experience. Cheers mate 👍

    • @TheMissendenFlyer
      @TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

      Sadly my camera failed to function due the temp and an exposed eyeball to the viewfinder quickly became frozen - the Canadians post warnings about how long exposed skin will last in those conditions...what a great country though eh? Looking forward to the rest of your tour - especially the desert in the West (I love the Mojave for some reason, I assume you went through en-route to/from Vegas??)....

    • @RichyVida
      @RichyVida  7 лет назад

      +TheMissendenFlyer wow. Would love to experience those kind of temperatures. I've seen footage of people throwing boiling water into the air and it immediately freezing - now that is cool! Yep, loved Mohave, also. Never experienced heat like it though! The vented jackets most definitely helped through there.

    • @TheMissendenFlyer
      @TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад +1

      Yes one extreme to the other in the US isn't it - last year I had the soles of my trainers melt whilst walking the strip in Vegas!!! :0) Happy New Year to you and yours Richy, thanks for all the videos through 2016, you're defo one of the best channels on YT as far as I'm concerned...all the best - TMF

    Wish I was 20 years younger mate. Would / could never think of this tour now.. Awesome. The effort in the planning must have been incredible - and still - a few curved balls chucked out. I know you will have done the large portion of the planning. Edge of my seat in the early parts, and even watching from 3000 miles away, passing a Rizla paper through the ar5e cheeks (mine) wasn't possible (trust me 👀😁🤣🤣🤣🤣). Arriving in the dark in an unknown place, no Cardo mesh - except you and Egone, and losing Steve and Graham fra'bit. Jeezus H. Fantastic watch pal 👍

    • @RichyVida
      @RichyVida  3 года назад

      I’m glad you’re watching this series, Paul. Will it be a comment at the end of each episode? Hope so! And yes, every stitch of this trip was planned by myself 👍

    • @paulsmyth497
      @paulsmyth497 3 года назад

      @@RichyVida Thought so mate (the planning effort) when you mentioned having looked at the hotel at the Falls “Many times” on Google Street view. The planning, and organizing in every detail, like making sure the guys had their headset batteries with them, to charge on the plane etc (I am guessing), and someone (you) who has said in previous vids “I love packing and preparing)” is of the same Alpha Male / semi-anorak breeding as mesen pal. Rich. If you get bored of my comments mate, I’ll stop for sure. The effort put in to planning this trip was epic though, and I knew it was a huge watch once I started, which is why I waited, and picked the right time to have a clear run at it. Hearing people like Steve - similar age to me, plus Egone “Shitting” themselves, before you left Blighty, I promise you mate, I could feel it myself - 5 years later. When I see other very popular bike vloggers vids - honestly, mate, yours stand “dandruff shampoo” above most - at least for what I personally love to see / hear, and so acknowledging your efforts and skill seems compulsory. I can’t just leave it at a thumbs up pal. Episode 3 ce soir 👀👍😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Im sure making this video was the hardest part of the trip, but totally worth it, thanks.

    Good work, guys! I'm thinking hard about doing a trip the other way 'round. Thanks for the what it's like experience with shipping, etc.
