So many awesome comments, such connection with the ride and video. I'll continue to have a subtle dig at the 'carpark ADV' bikes , if only to promote the idea of giving your bike a chance to show what it's capable of in the offroad world. And yeah, Carson is a racer and has never been scared to hold it on in sketchy terrain. He has all the makings of a Dakar rider. Thanks again everyone...
im yet another viewer that became a fan of the channel when the first warhorse video came out and instantly became obsessed. i adventure in a little different way camping and kayaking and such but i will soon be purchasing an adventure bike as i’ve always had a passion for dirtbikes. thanks for the epic content and the brilliant views i see through them
While I may not have the talent, or audience that you do Adam, I too take a pop at the "carpark ADV" riders by taking my GS off road in search of adventure.
Pure joy.... : ) My favorite day riding in my whole life was my first day riding off road on a YZ125. This video reminds me of how special that day was and how each day, each moment are gifts not to be passed by.

Absolutely sick ride and adventure! 👀 This is top quality on so many levels. Yamaha should pay you a bag of money for this video! Anyway, I don't think I would buy a used bike from you 😆
In 1986 my buddy and I took off on what today would be called an adventure motorcycle ride. I had a 1981 Honda XL500, and he had a brand new XL600. We were both "hardcore" trout fishermen who preferred to do our trout fishing where others did not venture. We would ride our bikes miles back into Forest Service roads, down deep and steep river canyons, ford streams, washouts and even take game trails to reach our secluded fishing holes. Mostly we fished the Feather River, Yuba River, Truckee River, Mad River, McCloud River, Eel River, Trinity River and Shasta Rivers located in Northern CA. One day we decided to do what then would be considered crazy. We decided to do a fishing adventure that would take us 3,300 miles over 15 days from my home on the border of Plumas National Forest to the Canadian border and back, staying off road as much as possible and camping out of what we could pack on our enduro bikes. Many items we split between us. For example I packed the frying pan and coffee pot and box of two cooking utensils and seasonings, while he packed a very small cooler to hold a six pack of beer, a stick of butter, an onion and a few potatoes. We each packed a two man tent, sleeping bag, our own plate, knife, fork and spoon, as well as two changes of clothes, a towel and small shaving kit. And of course a fishing pole and small tackle box. A couple of weeks prior we spent a few hours, and a few beers studying Delormes Topo Map books of Northern CA, Oregon and Washington. We picked a variety of routes that ran for miles along rivers and large streams with the goal of tying our ride to fishing as much as possible. We stayed as high in the Sierras and then the Cascades as we could on the way up. We couldn't fit the big Delorme topo books in out packs, so we switched to folded paper state maps and tried our best to recall what we had seen in the books that day with beers. We made a pledge that even though our goal was to get to Canada. We didn't even care if we made it out of California, as our main goal was good fishing. In 1986 cell phones, GPS, and the internet were only in science fiction books. We never knew where we were going to camp until each day one of us would say, "Let's camp here." We completely altered our course on the way back when we ran into another fisherman who had just been fishing for sea-run cut throat trout on the coast in Northern Oregon. We headed west and followed the coast, then chasing up rivers that emptied into the ocean. Over the 15 days we stopped counting when we each reached 150 trout each. Every dinner we had potatoes, trout, and beer. Every breakfast we had potatoes, trout and any beer still remaining in the cooler. Lunch was always in a small town where we stocked up on gas, potatoes, butter and beer, usually a sub sandwich if it was warm or a bowel of chili if it was cold and wet. I'm 62 now, and still claim those 15 days as 15 of the best days of my life. It was beyond magical. We met so many cool people, got invited to full moon beach parties, barbecues, other's campsites. We met quite a few cute girls (including a couple who wanted to join us 8-). I'm fortunate enough to have retired a little early. This year I bought a new Norden 901 Expedition. I also bought a custom built off road trailer capable of carrying my Norden. I currently live in WA right on the US/CA border. I own a sawmill with stacks of maple, oak, elm, fir, pine and cedar lumber. The trailer I ordered gutted inside and will be doing the buildout myself. In a couple of years, I'm going to start selling my properties in CA and WA and will be heading out on what I hope to be an endless adventure that spans from Alaska to the tip of Argentina. Wish me luck! And if we run into each other, let's have a beer!
This is an excellent video of a real adventure. I thank you for sharing your vision, expertise, and willingness to share. It’s clearly inspirational for a diverse group of riders. I’ve been riding for 60 years and adventure riding for 9. I find my horizons expanding because of it, as are my riding skills. I may end up in a motel parking lot some evenings, but there’ll be fresh mud on the bike when I do.
All the best with your travels. That one from the 80’s sounds epic. I did similar in a car across the USA with a buddy around that time. Same kind of random “adventures” 😉. We got lost a few times on dirt roads, ended up in tiny saloons, and drove Des Moins to Denver with no alternator! Great memories.
One of many riders on the channel with strong words and no unnessacary bulk around. Concentrated on the important spots, spoken well, concrete AND full of wisdom!
Fine- I’m gonna take your word for it and watch. You better not be wasting my time. 😅 Wow yeah this is refreshingly a bit different- Thx for the heads-up shiv.
Well, another calm, enjoyable video of two exceptionally skilled motocyclists. I really enjoyed the tension between the young, bloke flying over sand like a god and the older, wiser and more experienced guy who doesnt even consider a drowned bike to be a problem, because he has faced so much on two wheels. ✌
Man Carson is a man of few words but thats more proof that hes letting hes riding skills speak for him, bro he can ride. Great Video Adam as always and awsome to see a true adventure. Keep sending it and stay strong!
Thought you should know I took my eldest son (15 yrs old) on our first ADV ride together in northern Michigan while we camp out. A TW 200 for him and a KLR 650 for me. Odd ball bikes that aren’t the focus of your channel - but your channel has helped inspire and motivate us to get this far - and boy has it been great! Just fantastic. Thx and keep up the great work! 🙏❤️
A thousand smiles per miles. Reminds me of my first ADV ride - sucked me in like a mud hole. For him to endure all the camera setup and teardown, and take/ retake - that's a special pal. Thanks for sharing. !!!!
Watched half of it and had to go back to work, left it on pause and watched the rest when I got home. Beautiful work Reimann (and friend) 👌 These moments will stay with you for the rest of your life.
I have to say this is one of my favorite videos you've made. How incredible it is to pass on your passion to Carson. You couldn't have picked a better wingman into the unknown. He's humble, quiet, great attitude and wow can he ride! What a beast! Thank you for sharing this incredible journey with us and igniting the passion of adventure in so many of us. Cheers! ✌
Adam I am blown away by this adventure. I can't believe the skills you to possess to be able to handle these machines under these conditions. I feel like I'm doing good learning adventure riding here in America in New England with all the rocks and such. I'm a baby in the woods compared to what you guys are doing. If you had a 2-hour video adventure I would watch the whole thing probably twice thanks a lot for bringing us along on your adventure you guys kick ass
@@iSim0641 i dont think it was completely waterlocked, but once they moved the wheel by hand it left enough water out so the engine would at least crank
Outstanding video content. First class editing. Riding skills that show talent and experience. Humility and swagger combined.. Thanks Adam.. making an old guy smile.
This is my kind of adventure, not showing off expensive stuff but showing skills and determination, venturing into the unknown. Love the words too. Adam is W. Shakespeare of motovlogging.
I feel like a child watching its favorite movie over and over. Definitely true adventure riders. Not everyone can achieve that level of adventure, but it’s awesome to watch your videos.
This is one of the best motorcycle videos I have seen. Absolutely stunning cinematography, great narration (we are similar age and I totally get the comments), and the pure adventure shines through with no BS. Great work thank to you both. Thank you!
What a set of rippers you 2 are. The skill to ride these terrains, the stream crossings, the water, and the forest and beach, man that is cool. Awesome production as well, it feels like there's a camera guy following you all around who rips more than you all cuz he's got a camera on.
I just came back to say thank you. Watching this vidéo saved my life. Drowned mx xr650r in the middle of a very remote place recently and only revived it from the memory of this video, plus some extra bush solutions...being a kickstart only bike 😂. Keep sharing your knowledge, it helps.
F**king legends! Love all your work Adam! From all your instructional videos to the hooliganism and the fantastic film making. You're inspiring a lot of us around the world mate! Keep it coming...
Man Carson's on board footage on the return sand leg, very enoyable to watch a guy my age rip an ADV bike with that kind of skill - not that there was ever any doubt, but damn that guy can ride.
I admire your videography skill and the way you speak to convey what an awesome activity adventure riding is if it is done correctly. Your videos have inspired me to return to Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 and start riding in the dense forests there after I was forced to sell my bike and leave the country. Your films have made me understand how much more rewarding it is to spend time out in nature on an adventure bike than it is to live in a materialistic city like Dubai 🇦🇪 and run after money. Appreciate the time and effort you put into producing this masterpiece.
Bloody brilliant...especially as I round out my 40's, reminisce on my rides with mates from the past, and take ibuprofen breaks more often than I'd like going forwards. Lovely stuff as per usual.
Wow, Adam... I'm in love with your content! I've been wanting to get into adventure riding, but I'm 42, with very little experience in riding dirt, and I don't really know anyone that does it. But your videos are truly inspirational, and make me want to do it even more! I know that I will eventually get out there.
Do it. Don't wait. I started at 38. There are tons of places out there now to get excellent training and they are well worth the money! You won't regret it.
I'm 40 and just bought my 1st moto after 20+ years in the cycling industry. Every chance I get I am on the moto, exploring forestry roads to places I have never been. I've done multiple cross country bicycle tours and was always jealous of the ADV folks I met. Now I am that ADV guy I used to romance over.
@@TourmeisterTWT already got some training and I do have a small dirt bike. I just need to get some experience now. The problem is that don't have who to ride with, and because of a few injuries, I'm weary of riding alone. But I'll figure something out. For the time being, I'll just keep getting inspired with Adam's videos.
This, dear Andy, is a video I shouldn‘t watch but need to. I remember what your Motonomad 1 Movie made with me. Started a tour around Europe for 5 Weeks alone, it was awesome!!! Thanks for sharing your passion
Brilliant movie. You have a way of truly capturing the experience and putting all the bits and pieces together that just fully submersed us into the video. Just an epic adventure. What an inspiration.
And through all that you found a way to document the ride with incredible drone footage. You both must be in the top 1% of ADV riders by how you tackled such challenging tracks.
Have to re-watch at least one more time. Thanks for the awesome content. Good selection of music as well. Totally a pleasure to watch. I like that my kids can also watch this too and get that sense of adventure stirring up inside them.
The first thing on a saturday morning - watching this video gives me this feeling: Yeaa, Thats Freedom...!!! and There is no other way to experience it. Thanks Riemann.
This could only be more beautiful if you uploaded it in 2k/4k so the artefacts went away. Man you make me want to emigrate to Australia. What a start into the weekend with a video from you.
To me this is what adventure bike riding is really about. Not being the urban cowboy. Finding new terrain away from the stresses of life. Doesn't matter your age, this is living!
The freedom that comes with living off a bike knowing you have everything you need and can stop pretty much anywhere you want is something that you cant really describe.
Now I know why Honda placed the air boxes on the CRF1100L Africa Twin at the highest possible point under the tank. A credit to everyone involved in producing such an awesome video. The riders are the stars in this amazing production. This is true adventure riding at its best. Well done.
That was an epic video. The drone footage and cinametography are not to underestimated. There is a great deal of effort that goes into capturing this to be shared. Thank you!
hey adam! me and my lady are doing at the moment a 5 months trip al over greece / turkey / bulgaria on 450crf and 450exc. sitting in our tent and watching your latest video! awesome!! hope to come to australia some day 😊 one question… wich drone are u using? its not a dji right? all the best and keep on producing this awesome content !!
This is incredible ! One of the most beautiful and inspirationnal film on YT I think i never had the opportunity to thank you for convincing me to choose the Ténéré so thank you !!! And greetings from France.
This is a killer film, you captured the adventure & challenges perfectly & nailed it with the music selections as well. Seriously felt like watching Motonomad 4. Your editing & storylines are always top notch 🤘Cheers!
You did it again, Adam! You did outperform your previous contributions and once again you create a piece of art on adventure riding! Thanks for taking us with you and sharing this great experience!
Unbelievable and awesome! Wish I was younger and maybe would then dare to try it, because it would still be a hell of a challenge. Also fantastic scenery and emptiness. Can’t find that here in the Netherlands. Keep on going and stay safe. Cheers, Jack
Beautiful....no words to describe how much talent you both have and gave to us in this video, loved each minute....thank you and thank you also for the "how to" videos that, for people like me (52 years old with only 2 years of bike experience), are pure gold. Greetings from Argentina.
So good and seeing Enduro / MX riders do this makes me want to do this more than before with always having the mind set of Adventure riders being on a BMW GS fully loaded...Nice work legends!
Hi Adam and Carson, great video guys. Really enjoyed it. I think you might have just raised the bar with Adventure videos and how fast you can ride T7’s in the sand. Love your channel Adam, keep up the great work. 🇦🇺
yeah I feel ya. Just moved down from Cumbria, and its taking a bit of adjusting! I have done my first ever rally on my rd07 Africa Twin this year, and loved it! There's a few extra dents and scratches now XD. I miss having the mountains and trails to blast along round the Lake District though :(
Most owners of GS are just riding from coffee shop to another, and on the other side you have these 2 guys living their lives on 2 Teneres. Gold content as always Adam 10/10 would watch again.
Hey @ARiemann1! Upscale your videos in 4K so they won't suffer from low bitrate (huge loss in quality especially in on-board footage)! Thanks for your great videos!
ADAM, YOUR ADVENTURE VIDEOS JUST KEEP GETTING BETTER AND BETTER... YOU REALLY ARE A TRUE INSPIRATION TO MANY OF US... PLEASE MATE, NEVER STOP SHARING THESE AWESOME MATERIAL...✊🛵 HUGS FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD. VILLA DOLORES - CÓRDOBA - ARGENTINA.
I just wanna say you’re the man, thanks for the oil change video and all this good content. Your braking in dirt video helped me exponentially. Sincerely, a rider since 2021…
Some people are extremely lucky to have that sort of adventure available to them. I feel that here in EU, the days of real adventure riding are a thing of the past.
Absolutely not! Where do you live?There are tons of trails paths, tracks, forest paths, rolling tracks, forests which remain accessible everywhere in Europe such as French and Spanish Pyrenees, Portugal with my T7 WR for weeks of real adventure. We are not talking about the so called “Adventure “ 1200+ GS type and other pachyderms which will crash in the first difficulty.
@@bostphilippe2336 Belgium and afaik riding in the forests is prohibited. Other than TET I know of no other trail around here that would qualify as adventure, even remotely. Can't ride to Spain, or Portugal any time I'd like to go off-road.
Pol Tarres shows what the bike can tolerate and you show what the rider should be able to do to get most out of a Tenere. Yamaha must be over the moon with such content.
Hai adam, so enjoy all your content, motivate me to safe my money from now to buy my first adventure bike, maybe not the best or the fancy one, just hope one day i can traveling all place on my country Indonesia 🇮🇩,or over the world 🌍🌎. Cheers,mate 🍻🍻
Very curious on the T700 riding you've been doing, especially with the KTM relationship you've had over the years. I know you're independent from all those companies, but what makes the Tenere different even over a 2023 KTM 890 Adv R like mine?
@@Slov_ KTM mechanic said it to me. He also said that he wouldn't ride one any further than he could push the thing back home. He also owned a T7. Everybody I know that owns or has owned a Street or Adventure KTM has had many issues with them. Thats why I bought a T7.
@@NK-dl2nc The problem is I don't want such a top heavy bike. I traded in my GSA for a reason. Maybe the next one up is the Desert X? To be fair, I can understand the perspective finicky nature of KTMs, but how many are vocal when their bike doesn't work regardless of the manufacturer compared to those who love their KTM, BMW, or Yamaha and never had issues?
Balls of steel and the true spirit to adventure by experiencing new places and things. All while taking the good and the bad of the unknown. 💪🏽 All the respect in the world. I learn a lot from watching you about motorcycles and on how to approach certain aspects of life. Appreciate ya good sir. 🙏🏽 Keep on pushing! 🏍️💨
Great video! I used to ride dirt bikes (trail riding). I haven’t ridden in a few years. I’ve been looking at adventure bikes and this makes me want one even more. Enjoy the ride!
I ride/race single track and have been debating getting an ADV bike, well this video just sealed the deal. Driving a couple hours north tomorrow to pick up the T7! Thanks!
I watched this maybe 30 minutes after it released and ive seen it about 5 times since, this video has captured so much fun and also emotions, i think the videos that you make really draw out human emotions, its no longer videos you're making, you're making art
I just wanna say thank you for your videos. I saw your first video about your warhorse and that really inspired me and opened my eyes about adventuring with bikes. Just bought a Yamaha Tenere 660 -94, and and thrilled about going on my own adventures. Really love the bike just riding around on dirt and gravel roads. Thank you, never stop with your videos, you are an insperation to a new generation towards adventuring!
After a long day of staring at computers and fighting Cincinnati traffic, I really appreciate you bringing us along on your adventures. You made me feel like I was there. Thanks.
When you're in Europe I'd love to see you and shake your hand. I absolutely agree with what you say and how you have it set up.If I could I would let you teach me how to ride since we have the same views on adventure and things around us! I ride whenever I can and commute to work daily on my motorcycle whether it's raining or meteors are falling....getting out in nature or getting lost on purpose then making a fire and hanging a hammock is the best relaxation.
Well, another absolute treat. I don't know how many times i have commented on your videos saying the video is just amazing. Just can't resist man. The quality is top notch.
What a wonderful film! And; well, we all know what fantastic riders ARiemann and his fellow Australien rider are. What they almost by instinct are capable of offroad without thinking much about it… I’ve seen and enjoyed all the videos and films, so that doesn’t surprise me anymore… But, in this movie, what the T7 is capable off… That surprised me! I’ll not mention any names or brands, but I’m not sure any of the feature- and electronic laden other adventure bikes would have handled and survived the challenges that well….! And I don’t even own a T7… Yet… Thanks for another wonderful movie full of beautiful pictures, scenaries, impressions and thoughts we can all relate to… A film showing the hole spirit of outback adventure and freedom better than anyone else can do it!
Make want to pack a bag and go now. Thanks Adam, that was an epic adventure. All skills are on point, videography, narration, navigation, and you managed to keep it upright in that boggy sand. Hat off.
Your drone work and skills with camera and bike are second to none but just watching these great vids doesn't get dirt on the bike and the wind through your gills. Great motivation, thanks a lot
I was a Ténéré 600 freak back in the 80s until middle 90s, and haven't driven one since. But you inspired me with this, and a few other videos before, to buy the T7 now. Thank you for sharing your experiences, and thoughts about this motorcycle. I really enjoy your videos.
How good? The bike bouncing off the limiter in the sand! ( I had a funny feeling in my pants with that one🤔) Simply one of the best ADV clips I’ve watched. Makes me want to get on my bike and go…..
Every time I watch the new video, you take me on a journey, a story, real adventure, wilderness, explore, discover, reinvent! You wake up the rider in me and I venture out on my motorcycle! You are an inspiration, Adam. Thank you! #Respect #Darkhorse
Adam. You are the Man. Thank you! Im so new to off road riding... but I love it! a bit scared, dont have much experience. I do appreciated you sharing your know how. After Vietnam being my first off road , I would love to join ride with you in Australia and learn more . About Country and riding. Thanks again.
Great stuff. My days of riding that sort of terrain are now passed but I'm bloody glad I did once. It makes watching quality footage like this even more enjoyable because I know what it's like. Keep up the good work. Some of the best content I think I've ever seen on YT. Sensible, informative and entertaining.
So many awesome comments, such connection with the ride and video.
I'll continue to have a subtle dig at the 'carpark ADV' bikes , if only to promote the idea of giving your bike a chance to show what it's capable of in the offroad world.
And yeah, Carson is a racer and has never been scared to hold it on in sketchy terrain. He has all the makings of a Dakar rider. Thanks again everyone...

strong words, wise words indeed
🤣🤣🤣
this was brilliant
One of the best videos I have seen on dirt bike riding in ages. Amazing chemistry between the man and the machine.
One of many riders on the channel with strong words and no unnessacary bulk around. Concentrated on the important spots, spoken well, concrete AND full of wisdom!
one of the best motorcycle adventure films out there, you should bring him along more often.
Fine- I’m gonna take your word for it and watch.
You better not be wasting my time. 😅
Wow yeah this is refreshingly a bit different-
Thx for the heads-up shiv.

My 11 year old son and i enduro ride Michigan all the time. We would love to join you!

Pure Adventure, No bis, No unwanted content, Just Riding.....
What an absolute gem of a video. No, BS, no fluff, all meat & potatoes. What a fantastic edit with amazing production

Sooo right and good words, thanx! 👏👏👏

Very impressive how the T7 coped and recovered with the water ingress
If I uderstand correctly, pistons were waterlocked and all they did was to put it in 5th gear and pulled the bike in reverse unlocking the pistons??
@@iSim0641 i dont think it was completely waterlocked, but once they moved the wheel by hand it left enough water out so the engine would at least crank
@@iSim0641correct. We had to do the same to a friends tiger 900. But he had sold it within a week, so don’t know if there was any lasting damage.
@@eMotion_Video_UK this is a very useful technique if you are alone and dont have the tools to remove the gas tank to reach the spark plugs.
@@eMotion_Video_UK bet you’re fantastic friend didn’t tell that to the new owner.
Outstanding video content. First class editing. Riding skills that show talent and experience. Humility and swagger combined.. Thanks Adam.. making an old guy smile.
😅👍
This is my kind of adventure, not showing off expensive stuff but showing skills and determination, venturing into the unknown. Love the words too. Adam is W. Shakespeare of motovlogging.
I feel like a child watching its favorite movie over and over. Definitely true adventure riders. Not everyone can achieve that level of adventure, but it’s awesome to watch your videos.
This is one of the best motorcycle videos I have seen. Absolutely stunning cinematography, great narration (we are similar age and I totally get the comments), and the pure adventure shines through with no BS. Great work thank to you both. Thank you!
20 minute mark, just floating on clouds…unbelievable. Thanks Adam, you are a gift and an inspiration to the world of adventure riding.
What a set of rippers you 2 are. The skill to ride these terrains, the stream crossings, the water, and the forest and beach, man that is cool. Awesome production as well, it feels like there's a camera guy following you all around who rips more than you all cuz he's got a camera on.
I just came back to say thank you. Watching this vidéo saved my life. Drowned mx xr650r in the middle of a very remote place recently and only revived it from the memory of this video, plus some extra bush solutions...being a kickstart only bike 😂.
Keep sharing your knowledge, it helps.
“Once again we must admit defeat and face the music”
Such a line!
Video is like meditation
F**king legends! Love all your work Adam! From all your instructional videos to the hooliganism and the fantastic film making. You're inspiring a lot of us around the world mate! Keep it coming...
Man Carson's on board footage on the return sand leg, very enoyable to watch a guy my age rip an ADV bike with that kind of skill - not that there was ever any doubt, but damn that guy can ride.
I admire your videography skill and the way you speak to convey what an awesome activity adventure riding is if it is done correctly. Your videos have inspired me to return to Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 and start riding in the dense forests there after I was forced to sell my bike and leave the country. Your films have made me understand how much more rewarding it is to spend time out in nature on an adventure bike than it is to live in a materialistic city like Dubai 🇦🇪 and run after money. Appreciate the time and effort you put into producing this masterpiece.
Your content is just
Enjoy because they a excellent as I did the same 2 months ago and it’s worth being a member he is the best
Dave
Bloody brilliant...especially as I round out my 40's, reminisce on my rides with mates from the past, and take ibuprofen breaks more often than I'd like going forwards. Lovely stuff as per usual.
Wow, Adam... I'm in love with your content! I've been wanting to get into adventure riding, but I'm 42, with very little experience in riding dirt, and I don't really know anyone that does it. But your videos are truly inspirational, and make me want to do it even more! I know that I will eventually get out there.
Do it. Don't wait. I started at 38. There are tons of places out there now to get excellent training and they are well worth the money! You won't regret it.
@Victor it's going to be an expensive love affair 😂.. so worth it though.
I'm 40 and just bought my 1st moto after 20+ years in the cycling industry. Every chance I get I am on the moto, exploring forestry roads to places I have never been. I've done multiple cross country bicycle tours and was always jealous of the ADV folks I met. Now I am that ADV guy I used to romance over.
@@adventurechannel67 already is... I don't currently have a house or a car... but I do have 5 bikes to make up for it! ;-p
@@TourmeisterTWT already got some training and I do have a small dirt bike. I just need to get some experience now. The problem is that don't have who to ride with, and because of a few injuries, I'm weary of riding alone. But I'll figure something out. For the time being, I'll just keep getting inspired with Adam's videos.
This, dear Andy, is a video I shouldn‘t watch but need to. I remember what your Motonomad 1 Movie made with me. Started a tour around Europe for 5 Weeks alone, it was awesome!!! Thanks for sharing your passion
Every bit of content you send into the world is pure gold!
Brilliant movie. You have a way of truly capturing the experience and putting all the bits and pieces together that just fully submersed us into the video. Just an epic adventure. What an inspiration.
This just remind me why we do this... Thanks Riemann. You're a legend
You should take him along more often, he's in one of the best motorbike adventure movies out there.
And through all that you found a way to document the ride with incredible drone footage. You both must be in the top 1% of ADV riders by how you tackled such challenging tracks.
Have to re-watch at least one more time. Thanks for the awesome content. Good selection of music as well. Totally a pleasure to watch. I like that my kids can also watch this too and get that sense of adventure stirring up inside them.
The first thing on a saturday morning - watching this video gives me this feeling: Yeaa, Thats Freedom...!!! and There is no other way to experience it. Thanks Riemann.
This could only be more beautiful if you uploaded it in 2k/4k so the artefacts went away. Man you make me want to emigrate to Australia. What a start into the weekend with a video from you.
watching you two riding through tough paths was absolute joy
To me this is what adventure bike riding is really about. Not being the urban cowboy. Finding new terrain away from the stresses of life. Doesn't matter your age, this is living!
The freedom that comes with living off a bike knowing you have everything you need and can stop pretty much anywhere you want is something that you cant really describe.
I love this!
Would watch the whole Playlist of you bringing us along new REAL adventures time and time again 🤙🏼
Now I know why Honda placed the air boxes on the CRF1100L Africa Twin at the highest possible point under the tank. A credit to everyone involved in producing such an awesome video. The riders are the stars in this amazing production. This is true adventure riding at its best. Well done.
Just what I needed to watch before heading off on my own 6 week adventure on a T7 😀 Great video as always.
This was an awesome watch, they both have different strengths in riding
35 minutes gone in the blink of an eye. looking forward to my own upcoming adventure ride in a few days. cheers.
That was an epic video.
The drone footage and cinametography are not to underestimated. There is a great deal of effort that goes into capturing this to be shared.
Thank you!
hey adam! me and my lady are doing at the moment a 5 months trip al over greece / turkey / bulgaria on 450crf and 450exc. sitting in our tent and watching your latest video! awesome!! hope to come to australia some day 😊
one question… wich drone are u using? its not a dji right?
all the best and keep on producing this awesome content !!
Wow man that's sounds amazing, I'm in aus and hoping one day I can get my girlfriend a bike so we can adventure together
This is incredible ! One of the most beautiful and inspirationnal film on YT
I think i never had the opportunity to thank you for convincing me to choose the Ténéré so thank you !!! And greetings from France.
And I get scared attempting five foot water crossings that are three inches deep. Impressive to see stuff like this. Beautiful film.
Never ridden off-road, don't think I would have the skill, the control, finesse to do what you do. Awesome to watch such great bike control.
This is a killer film, you captured the adventure & challenges perfectly & nailed it with the music selections as well. Seriously felt like watching Motonomad 4. Your editing & storylines are always top notch 🤘Cheers!
You did it again, Adam! You did outperform your previous contributions and once again you create a piece of art on adventure riding! Thanks for taking us with you and sharing this great experience!
Unbelievable and awesome! Wish I was younger and maybe would then dare to try it, because it would still be a hell of a challenge. Also fantastic scenery and emptiness. Can’t find that here in the Netherlands. Keep on going and stay safe. Cheers, Jack
Beautiful....no words to describe how much talent you both have and gave to us in this video, loved each minute....thank you and thank you also for the "how to" videos that, for people like me (52 years old with only 2 years of bike experience), are pure gold. Greetings from Argentina.
this looked like a video game absolutely insane riding! Ready to get out there on my first adv bike, norden 901
So good and seeing Enduro / MX riders do this makes me want to do this more than before with always having the mind set of Adventure riders being on a BMW GS fully loaded...Nice work legends!
Hi Adam and Carson, great video guys. Really enjoyed it. I think you might have just raised the bar with Adventure videos and how fast you can ride T7’s in the sand. Love your channel Adam, keep up the great work. 🇦🇺
This riding is poetry in motion! Even if I had a quarter of that talent, I'd be ecstatic!
Very jealous of you guys! Looks like a blast. Oz has some proper adventure riding on offer. Sadly the south of England can't even begin to compete.
yeah I feel ya. Just moved down from Cumbria, and its taking a bit of adjusting! I have done my first ever rally on my rd07 Africa Twin this year, and loved it! There's a few extra dents and scratches now XD. I miss having the mountains and trails to blast along round the Lake District though :(
Heading up there in a few weeks! Can't wait. I can imagine how much of a wrench it is
No options in Wales? Wouldn't mind taking my 690 from Oz on a tour of the UK.
Most owners of GS are just riding from coffee shop to another, and on the other side you have these 2 guys living their lives on 2 Teneres.
Gold content as always Adam 10/10 would watch again.
Really awesome stuff, can't wait to start adventure riding myself!
Could you maybe upload in 4k? That would make driving scenes less of a smeary mess
Amazing video.. and those water crossings literally tortured test of T7 and she proves that she is the best 👍
Hey @ARiemann1! Upscale your videos in 4K so they won't suffer from low bitrate (huge loss in quality especially in on-board footage)! Thanks for your great videos!
ADAM, YOUR ADVENTURE VIDEOS JUST KEEP GETTING BETTER AND BETTER... YOU REALLY ARE A TRUE INSPIRATION TO MANY OF US... PLEASE MATE, NEVER STOP SHARING THESE AWESOME MATERIAL...✊🛵 HUGS FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD. VILLA DOLORES - CÓRDOBA - ARGENTINA.
I just wanna say you’re the man, thanks for the oil change video and all this good content. Your braking in dirt video helped me exponentially. Sincerely, a rider since 2021…
Some people are extremely lucky to have that sort of adventure available to them. I feel that here in EU, the days of real adventure riding are a thing of the past.
Absolutely not! Where do you live?There are tons of trails paths, tracks, forest paths, rolling tracks, forests which remain accessible everywhere in Europe such as French and Spanish Pyrenees, Portugal with my T7 WR for weeks of real adventure. We are not talking about the so called “Adventure “ 1200+ GS type and other pachyderms which will crash in the first difficulty.
@@bostphilippe2336 Belgium and afaik riding in the forests is prohibited. Other than TET I know of no other trail around here that would qualify as adventure, even remotely. Can't ride to Spain, or Portugal any time I'd like to go off-road.
Pol Tarres shows what the bike can tolerate and you show what the rider should be able to do to get most out of a Tenere. Yamaha must be over the moon with such content.
Hai adam, so enjoy all your content, motivate me to safe my money from now to buy my first adventure bike, maybe not the best or the fancy one, just hope one day i can traveling all place on my country Indonesia 🇮🇩,or over the world 🌍🌎.
Cheers,mate 🍻🍻
Good luck from the States! 🇺🇸
Going to do the same over here!
🏍️💨🙏🏽
Probably one of the best adventure riding I have seen so far! Makes me want to get out and have an adventure myself.
Very curious on the T700 riding you've been doing, especially with the KTM relationship you've had over the years. I know you're independent from all those companies, but what makes the Tenere different even over a 2023 KTM 890 Adv R like mine?
KTM will get you there. T7 will get you back home.
@@NK-dl2nc nailed it.
@@NK-dl2nc you sure about that?
@@Slov_ KTM mechanic said it to me. He also said that he wouldn't ride one any further than he could push the thing back home. He also owned a T7. Everybody I know that owns or has owned a Street or Adventure KTM has had many issues with them. Thats why I bought a T7.
@@NK-dl2nc The problem is I don't want such a top heavy bike. I traded in my GSA for a reason. Maybe the next one up is the Desert X? To be fair, I can understand the perspective finicky nature of KTMs, but how many are vocal when their bike doesn't work regardless of the manufacturer compared to those who love their KTM, BMW, or Yamaha and never had issues?
Balls of steel and the true spirit to adventure by experiencing new places and things. All while taking the good and the bad of the unknown. 💪🏽
All the respect in the world.
I learn a lot from watching you about motorcycles and on how to approach certain aspects of life.
Appreciate ya good sir. 🙏🏽
Keep on pushing! 🏍️💨
Best moto channel on the internet hands down 💪
Its not just a simple vlog, its a film! Very satisfying to watch. Im ur avid fan from. Philippines,!!!!!!
Great video! I used to ride dirt bikes (trail riding). I haven’t ridden in a few years. I’ve been looking at adventure bikes and this makes me want one even more. Enjoy the ride!
I ride/race single track and have been debating getting an ADV bike, well this video just sealed the deal. Driving a couple hours north tomorrow to pick up the T7! Thanks!
I watched this maybe 30 minutes after it released and ive seen it about 5 times since, this video has captured so much fun and also emotions, i think the videos that you make really draw out human emotions, its no longer videos you're making, you're making art
I just wanna say thank you for your videos. I saw your first video about your warhorse and that really inspired me and opened my eyes about adventuring with bikes. Just bought a Yamaha Tenere 660 -94, and and thrilled about going on my own adventures. Really love the bike just riding around on dirt and gravel roads.
Thank you, never stop with your videos, you are an insperation to a new generation towards adventuring!
After a long day of staring at computers and fighting Cincinnati traffic, I really appreciate you bringing us along on your adventures. You made me feel like I was there. Thanks.
When you're in Europe I'd love to see you and shake your hand. I absolutely agree with what you say and how you have it set up.If I could I would let you teach me how to ride since we have the same views on adventure and things around us! I ride whenever I can and commute to work daily on my motorcycle whether it's raining or meteors are falling....getting out in nature or getting lost on purpose then making a fire and hanging a hammock is the best relaxation.
Is there a better adventure ride on the internet than this one? GOLDEN!!
the endless sand tracks make me think of Baja California. Awesome adventure guys, and great film.
Well, another absolute treat. I don't know how many times i have commented on your videos saying the video is just amazing. Just can't resist man. The quality is top notch.
The best adventure channel on YT, a brilliant story with a lot of emotions, cinema is superb. Thanks mate.
What a wonderful film! And; well, we all know what fantastic riders ARiemann and his fellow Australien rider are. What they almost by instinct are capable of offroad without thinking much about it… I’ve seen and enjoyed all the videos and films, so that doesn’t surprise me anymore… But, in this movie, what the T7 is capable off… That surprised me! I’ll not mention any names or brands, but I’m not sure any of the feature- and electronic laden other adventure bikes would have handled and survived the challenges that well….! And I don’t even own a T7… Yet… Thanks for another wonderful movie full of beautiful pictures, scenaries, impressions and thoughts we can all relate to… A film showing the hole spirit of outback adventure and freedom better than anyone else can do it!
Make want to pack a bag and go now. Thanks Adam, that was an epic adventure. All skills are on point, videography, narration, navigation, and you managed to keep it upright in that boggy sand. Hat off.
This video makes me smile so much. Im so happy someone out there are doin this. Living this. Makes me so so happy
Another great movie. Was good to see you guys in Walpole. Some epic riding through very wet terrain!
I swear, you are the Father or motorcycling. I freaking love all your heartfelt videos.. funny think is we are about the same age 😂
Your drone work and skills with camera and bike are second to none but just watching these great vids doesn't get dirt on the bike and the wind through your gills. Great motivation, thanks a lot
Makes me love the t7 even more. Amazing riding, bikes and riders. Living the dream guys.
I was a Ténéré 600 freak back in the 80s until middle 90s, and haven't driven one since. But you inspired me with this, and a few other videos before, to buy the T7 now. Thank you for sharing your experiences, and thoughts about this motorcycle. I really enjoy your videos.
no words can describe how epic this video is, simply a work of art!
And here I sit in my cubicle with a tear in my eye wishing for the time for little adventures like these…
How good?
The bike bouncing off the limiter in the sand! ( I had a funny feeling in my pants with that one🤔)
Simply one of the best ADV clips I’ve watched.
Makes me want to get on my bike and go…..
True, true adventure, real life, thank you so much for making this effort to show us what you do, and for inspiring all of us.. 😊
Every time I watch the new video, you take me on a journey, a story, real adventure, wilderness, explore, discover, reinvent! You wake up the rider in me and I venture out on my motorcycle! You are an inspiration, Adam. Thank you! #Respect #Darkhorse
Adam. You are the Man. Thank you! Im so new to off road riding... but I love it! a bit scared, dont have much experience. I do appreciated you sharing your know how. After Vietnam being my first off road , I would love to join ride with you in Australia and learn more . About Country and riding. Thanks again.
Great stuff. My days of riding that sort of terrain are now passed but I'm bloody glad I did once. It makes watching quality footage like this even more enjoyable because I know what it's like. Keep up the good work. Some of the best content I think I've ever seen on YT. Sensible, informative and entertaining.
Thanks!
