Exploring Arches National Park. (S4 EP4)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- Arches National Park is simply amazing. Take the fabulous motorcycle ride through the park, then top it off with someplace even most park rangers don’t know it exists.
We found a hidden gem called “The Tunnel” that we hiked back to and didn’t see a soul. The Tunnel is an opening that you can walk (OK - more like crawl) through for about 30 feet and pop out on the other side for a fabulous view of a canyon. The best thing about it? We had it all to ourselves!

Enjoy !! We will be on the road and riding no 750 miles today and we will be looking forward to replying on Monday. Thanks.
750 miles on a motorcycle is hard, the max I managed to ride and remain focus was 570 miles.
@@ironhorsegladiator5034 It was a a big push but we made it. Safe and Sound.
Thousand plus kilometers on a bike... at least you guys have comfortable bikes
I think it's amazing that you both rode through a World wide Pandemic, didn't have to deal with all the media propaganda and came through the other side healthier and happier and stronger. You both are a testament to facing your fears and you did that as a couple. CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR FIRST YEAR 🤯🥳🥳💥💯
Thanks so much! We became masters at social distancing! Actually we realized that the US isn't as scary a place once we tuned out the news. There are some mighty fine people out there and we've enjoyed meeting many of them.
In 1969 while in the Marines I was at my parents house visiting. When it was time to leave I told my mother. I better get home. She started crying and said this will always be your home. When you brought up going home it made me think of it. She was the best mom ever.
Awesome!! I have a pretty cool mom also
I sure miss you guys. I find myself rewatching your videos.
Army teaches that... adapt & overcome. And it’s true. Congrats on the 1 year anniversary. Keep it shiny side up y’all. 😊
You have too or you get stuck
I admire your enthusiasm for big adventure. I started my trek today that will take about six weeks and 8-9k miles. Started in Huntsville, Alabama, tonight in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Going to Sioux Falls-mother and brother’s family are there. The 20th is my late wife’s birthday as well as Fathers Day so that day will be for them as they are next to each other. Then I will attend two BMW rallies, ride as many as the classic routes in the Rockies as possible and return home. I am a little concerned about the heat-today was 97 degrees, as nothing I do, wear or put in the seat prevents the dreaded Monkey butt. I am 68 years old so taking photos and videos to record everything so when I can no longer ride, I can reminisce and tell tales of my adventures, and my one month old granddaughter will know something about who I was.
Awesome Mark. We may see you at a BMW rally 🤔🤔👍
Just discovered your channel a few days ago. I’ve been binge watching during my TV time. My other favorite channels are SUV RVing and City Girl Unplugged. I have been craving change following my husband’s move to heaven in April. You all have inspired me to get out there and take some 3-7 day trips. I live in the beautiful state of Maine and have gathered the necessary equipment for car camping. I need to be home one week per month so it will be nearly impossible to get out west to explore so thank you for your videos. I am slightly anxious to be out on my own but as the weeks pass I am getting more comfortable managing by myself for the first time in 35 years. A month ago I invested in an electric bike and a hitch carrier so I can take her along on adventures. I use to love long walks and hiking but since the loss of my ACL in my left knee back in March long or difficult walks are not possible but bike riding doesn’t make me hurt. In my 67 years I have learned life is too short not to live everyday. So I don’t dwell on what I’ve lost and can’t do and try to live to the fullest with the abilities I have remaining.
That’s awesome Lynnette. We have discovered a few places from SUV RVing We found the tunnel in Arches National Park.
I started riding solo on my motorcycle full time on May 11 and I'm currently headed south from St. Louis. So far I'm having a blast.
sweet. Keep us posted
I THINK GOD HAS CREATED AN AMAZING WORLD...AND YOU ARE BLESSED TO SEE MUCH OF IT ON TWO WHEELS...AWESOME!!..MAY GOD KEEP YOU SAFE IN YOUR TRAVELS...YOUR AN INSPIRATION TO MANY!!!
Thank you so much!! And you're spot on - so many awesome places to see and explore. Sometimes it would have been so cool to see the US as Lewis & Clark first saw it though - now that would be amazing!!

+1 on the Duluth Fire Hose pants... my go to riding jeans.
For sure. Love these pants.
2nd year full time on a motorcycle. Crazy ? nope....nothing wrong with 2-wheel nomad living. Guys are lucky and blessed. After Two years.........U guys can do anything U put your mind to it. Keep on Rocking and Riding in the Free World !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We agree Buck. Cheers.
@@TwoWheelsBigLife hell ya'll are at K River.....Adam Sandoval rocks
Just Beautiful.
Many thanks!
Moab is such a fun area! Brings back so many memories of my fist trip on the 1200 GS, from Florida.
So much to do there
THIS is great! My son finally has leave from the Navy, and he and his girlfriend are driving from Maryland to our home in California (early July). They want to stop at "Arches" and the area for a day or so and will have limited time, the last thing they need is to get stuck in a traffic jam!
Awesome glad to help. Hike back to that tunnel it’s pretty cool.
Big thank you both for the nice videos I love the landscapes and videos Great job !! Hi from Erik.
Glad you like them!
Arches NP is a awesome park. Great video love it thank you for sharing. I miss BeUTAHful
Thanks Tom
Another wonderfully produced production.
Thanks Again Robert. really appreciate you
My wife and I sold our forever home . We were bound to our property and work and after 26 yrs of marriage we realized we have focused on working and survival . We actually have to learn again how to enjoy ourselves . We never have gone on a vacation in 26 yrs. So we're writing our book and we bought a camper were hitting the road . I never realized that there is a fear of enjoying myself . And channels like yours are very inspiring .it's awesome what you guys do . I get to ride my bike more RIDE ON . .
Totally get what you're saying. After so many years of focusing on work and home maintenance, it truly is hard to slow down. And without that external distraction of 'doing things' we come face to face with ourselves. It can be scary and liberating all at the same time. Enjoy the journey!!
what a lovely view you have brought us to.
You’re welcome. Glad you liked. Cheers
It's like being on vacation every day every time I watch your videos
Thanks, Topher!
Congrats of 1 year of freedom, hope you will have it for many years to come. And I hope one day I will have it myself
I bought a 20 liter backpack from eddie Bauer. It packs down into one of its pockets, about 4 inches square. It’s awesome for carrying water, etc on hikes.
THANKS FOR THE INFO
Enjoyed it!
Thanks.
Awesome life lot of good nice views
Thanks
We enjoy your videos. I would love to be able to do what you 2 are doing. Every time I go on a small bike trip, I play around with the idea of just keeping on going. I'm usually riding my 19 Goldwing Tour or my Africa Twin. I guess I never caught Rich's previous occupation. I used to do small refrigeration and kitchen equipment. Today I primarily work on large commercial/industrial HVAC-R and building controls. Thought that was pretty cool.
James. My people. Chris was an accountant for a non-profit. I never got into the control side except for Grocery Store Refer. That was fun and challenging.
I got married at age 35 and we are coming up on our 35th Anniversary. I can tell you the last 35 years has been the adventure for sure!. Congrats on your milestones. Looking forward to many more years to come. P.S. I have my Wife watching your Videos with me now every Sunday night. We both look for to them. Thanks for sharing. Ride Safe. :)
Thanks, Craig! Congratulations on your upcoming 35th anniversary!!
Incredible beautiful video
Thanks Jay
18:20 Woah Woah Woah! that's close enough 👀
Camera angle is deceiving. Thanks for watching. Cheers.
Great video you two, the image quality is truly awesome, well done!! 👍👍
Thanks so much!
Thanks for the video 👍👍
amazing job folks thank you
Thank you so much! 🤩
Yes Duluth is very good clothing
👍👍👍
YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!! CONGRATS!!!
Thanks so much, Dwayne! 🤩
Great job, guys! I'm glad you found the Tunnel. Pretty cool spot, eh? Thanks for the shout-out 👍
Super cool place. Love your Videos. Cheers
Great job! Was just there last week. Keep on keepin’ on.
6 months after you retire, you won't know how you had time to work. Still need goals, so I work on a 30 year plan, revised daily. That's life.
Oh, good I'm not the only one who thinks ..how did I get it all done and work fulltime!!
You guys are my new heros!! Am planning on travelling for a year when I retire from teaching English in Sth Korea... if I could ride a motorbike I would sooo do this!! What an amazing place and what wonderful freedom you guys get to experience!
Thanks!! Hope you get to do some traveling when you retire - it truly is life changing.
Hi Chris and Rich, congrats on your one-year anniversary on the road full time. I've enjoyed travelling along with you. Be safe and continue to enjoy the journey, Cheers Dave
Thanks Dave. When the border opens we’ll come see ya.
@@TwoWheelsBigLife We're all in and have a garage and spare room for you. Good riding and food await. Cheers Dave
Thanks for the hike it was amazing beautiful scenery and thanks for the advice on following your dream you guys are awesome take care and be safe
Thanks for watching, Tom! Yes, Arches is truly stunning and especially more so when you can get away from the crowds.
Congrats on your 32 years come Sept. My husband and I will be married 41 years in Sept. Will be hitting the road July 17th for a month long trip starting at Beartooth Pass then onto Glacier, Yellowstone and Grand Tetons. Not sure what we will do after that. Traveling on our Honda Goldwing trike. Enjoy your time together.
Congratulations on your upcoming 41 years together!! Wahoo! ❤️
You are correct, when I sold everything to be on the road full time was very scary, but after three years full time on the road with my Motorcycle I'm so glad I did it. Love that park! Great Video And Thanks For Sharing My Friend!
Well said!
Well said! 🤩🤩
Very cool hike thanks for sharing. Hiking with both knees done 🤓👍🏻 still holding up the hog too🤓👍🏻👍🏻. You two are amazing,as usual thanks for sharing. Love that area hope to get back there when border opens again 🥂😎🏍💨💨💨💨💨👍🏻🇨🇦
Thanks, John! So funny, because we'd love the borders to open and let us in!!!
We was there in 2012 and was one of the beautiful trips of my life. Thanks recalling me those beautiful site! Safe Ride!
Our pleasure, Giovanni!
Happy anniversary
Awesome, video. Your honesty of being on the road for over a year is refreshing. I have been to Arches NP and quite a few others in Southern Utah. They are truly beautiful parks. I look forward to riding our motorcycles through those areas. I retired last fall. Had one of my knees replaced. Need the other one done as well. Not sure when. It will be over the winter when I do it. Bob has 2-3 years to go till retirement. Thanks for the great videos and stay safe.
Thanks, Cathy! Once those knees are all taken care of and Bob retires, then the skies the limit for ya'll!!
Another great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks! Now I want a pair of firehose pants!
These pants are awesome.
Happy anniversary, . Stay safe
Thanks
Happy anniversary.
Thanks
Didnt see landscape arch when I was there, looks awesome! So much to see in Utah. Happy anniversary! Thanks for sharing, great job!
Awesome! Thank you, Richard!
WOW!! I gotta go! Love your inspiration to just let it happen. 👍🤟❤️
Thanks, Steve! Let us know how it works out for you!
You were smart to go early in the morning.
I hyperventilated when you walked through that rock tunnel.. rock tunnels are not my cup of tea.
Can't wait to see the canyonlands vlog next Sunday. ☺
Stay safe!! See you next weekend!
YES!!! I'm not into tight places either, but since I could see the other end it was OK.
Very cool shots with camera in the tunnel. Excellent video. Thanks.
Thank you very much, Donna!
You guys are an inspiration - living your dream well done
Thanks Daniel! 😁
I never thought you were crazy
Boy our Kids did sat first
Great advice, keep living the dream
Cheers
Ah ha, caught you on Adam’s video at K River. As a retired LE, I appreciate the support 😎👍
Awesome! Thank you for what you did!
I look forward to your video of your time there at KRiver. I like the camp, always enjoyed my time there. Actually had reservations for (that) weekend; but fell off a ladder a few days before and could not ride.
Great editing on your videos.
Thank You Ray.
Been there with the Family last year.. i want to go back on my wing
Thanks! You will love it on your bike - so many great roads to explore beside Arches.
@@TwoWheelsBigLife I must say though, the best view of the arches was 30 minutes sunset
Sometimes ya just have to go with what comes up takes guts to do what your doing have to follow your dreams and go for it it's nice to do things while your young enough and able enough to enjoy it so many people work there hole life then they not able to do any thing after working 30-40-50 years financially some can't but any way enjoy your videos guys enjoy the journey be safe
Thanks Jeff for sharing. That's what we're hoping to avoid - living a life of regrets because we worked so long that our health won't allow us to be as adventurous as we'd like.
Great video! Sending best wishes from Ontario Canada🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦
Congratulations 👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks, Nathan!! 😁
That's awesome sites.
Thanks
Happy Anniversary!!
Boy, what an inside look at Arches!! Hopefully, I'll get there someday...but, I'm going to be doing the more touristy route!!
Be safe especially when you're alone doing all those superhuman moves!
Thanks!! 🤩🤩❤️
When you leave your comfort zone is when life truly begins. 🕉️ Namaste you two.
I am living my dream thru you two, keep up the fantastic content. At 66 I feel tied down to the life I created, you know the American dream a home and a lake home. Keeper going
Thanks Jeff
You guys are tops!
Thanks Bill!🤩
Love your adventures!
Thanks so much, Tracy! 😁
I like the haircut Rich.
Thanks Sis 👍👍
I love your videos. I have rode all over the country, but cannot seem to get the courage to get rid of my stationary home in Indiana and travel full time. Watching you two keeps my dreams alive. Be safe.
Glad it does.
Congratulations!!
Thanks Kenny! 🤩
Love you guys from ( Australia)
Thanks, Leo!!
Love watching your adventures and you telling your story. Great episode on Arches.
Glad you enjoy it!
I'm loving your videos. I've even went back and watched past videos. My only complaint is that you don't make enough videos. Take care and happy anniversary!
Working on it, but boy is it hard work!!! 🤩🤩
All caught up,Very beautiful Country.
Glad you enjoyed it
Absolutely enjoyed this adventure. Great job!
Awesome, thank you!
Hey, just watching Adam Sandoval and saw a couple familiar faces in the background
Yep we were there. Awesome.
You guys are awesome!!
Thanks
Happy anniversary-what a great accomplishment so much growth along the way! Love your adventures thanks for bringing us along your journey! Ride on!!
You’re welcome thanks for watching.
With the head band I thought I would hear Grand Funk Railroad or Humble Pie. Glad I didn't though... I've moved on from that :)
Rich & Chris's Backroads Discovery Tour. On a Butler Map :)
Those are mostly dirt roads if I’m correct
THANKS, GREAT VIDEO. - WATCHED AN ADAM SANDOVAL U-TUBE THE OTHER DAY, AND YOU GUYS WERE IN HIS VLOG. - SURPRISED THAT YOU DID NOT / HAVE NOT PUBLISHED YOUR VISIT THERE. HOW WAS THE K-RIVER ?? DAN, TATU DAN, N.O., La.
Stay tuned Sunday we are making a special announcement for what has happened this week.
The greatest fear is simply the thought of fear.
Fear is 💯 created in our minds through loss of innocence and adapting
Congratulations, Arches is my favourite in all the 47 states I have visited. It has been over 10 years since I was there. Bob in the UK
Thanks Bob
Great channel!
Thank you!
Have you guys done a video just on your video and editing equipment. Especially while on the road. I can’t imagine how many San disks you guys go through. Really enjoying the videos. Thank you.
Not yet!
Love you guys. Happy Anniversary and thank you for imparting your wisdom 🙏 💞💞
Thank you so much!
Awesome!! Utah is such a beautiful place! Great motorcycle roads and adventures
The best!
if you ever come East of Omaha would love to have you stay with us we are on bunk a biker
Awesome thanks a bunch
Richard doesn't look like he's lost a lot of weight, , and Chris cant afford to, (hee hee) Happy Anniversary on the road! Jayman...
That's shitty to say
@@bradjd6957 Didn't you see them"hee hee"? That means I was kidding. Lighten up!
No worries - Rich and I always say we're the perfect 10 together. I'm the 1 and he's the 0. Been that way for our entire marriage and we wouldn't have it any other way. Life comes in all shapes and sizes.
Hi, from Bangkok. You two are great.
Hello there and thank you!! 😁
You guys are living the life most of us can only dream about . Thank you for taking us along with you . Ride safe my friends .
Thanks so much! 😁😁
Happy Anniversary to one year on the road! Great scenery shots as always 👍.
Thanks
My biggest concern is income ! Although I am nearing 64, and getting close to retirement, I so want to do this! I am in excellent health!
A single person is easier and less expensive for sure. We travel different and don't eat out so more cooking stuff is with us.
When you guys go up the back road to Bryce if you need to fill up the bikes there is a gastaion at ruby's in five miles from the entrance to the pak
Thanks Michael!!😁
You two are living some of my dreams. Thanks for sharing your journey. I don’t think you will regret following your dreams
That's the plan! Can't take it with us - right?
I really enjoyed my time there. I wished I had more time. We road around for 200mi and still didn't see everything there. It was this time last month. I did my first long trip on a bike. Been riding for 40yrs but never anything longer than 200mi or so, round trip. I'm glad it was to Moab. I've been through there too many times to count. But I couldn't really stop. I'm a truck driver, so this was a common route to get to and from Colorado. I've always wanted to stop and check out Moab. And it was just beautiful in the truck, I knew it would be even better on bike. And it was. We're going to Fort Bragg CA in August. If I didn't have to work, I probably would start living like you guys. Not much difference from living in a truck. No running water, limited electricity. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 something for me to think about now. Lol
I see those wheels turning, Michelle! Good luck on figuring out what works best for you. But I would imagine a truck would come in handy in adverse weather conditions.
@@TwoWheelsBigLife totally. A bit more protected from the weather. But wind is still our enemy. We can blow over driving and even just sitting parked. There's no staking a truck down. Lol We park close together to block the wind. You both do an amazing job on securing Ruby. I just went camping and the wind was horrible. Setting up a tent in the wind is super hard. You both are inspirational and getting me to get outside more.
So show us what the 360 selfie stick thingy is! It does amazing shots, but I can't quite tell what it is. I don't think you've actually shown it to us. I want to use it for our channel!!!!!!
Will do! We are a few weeks behind but the next recording we do I'll show you.
My lifestyle would be like yall are doing with my wife but only on one bike and a small camper similar to yours. But my fears are my health and monetary. Am i healthy enough to do something like this were both in our early 60s i have heart and diabetic issues and how do you make a budget for living like this you know unexpected costs for repairs maintenance of the bike and camper food lodgjng if needed clothing etc. I guess ill never know for sure so ill just mooch off yall and live through you vicariously and keep watching and enjoying your videos. Thank you both very much for what you do!!!
Congrats on your one year anniversary of living nomadic. Caught a funny at 7:23 in the video where the curve sign and the road are going opposite directions. Thanks for all the great videos.
Thanks 👍 Wow!! it's not reversed because the MPH is correct. That is weird. Good catch. It had to be installed in the wrong spot. I wonder if the sign up the hill is the correct one 🤣🤣🤣
I'm so impressed with you both. Thank you. Well done.
Thank you! 😁😁
