- The Laidlaw's Harley-Davidson crew takes a multi-day road trip into Yosemite National Park. They experience some heat getting there but the payoff is an epic day in one of the most beautiful national parks in the U.S. Check out the sights and the bikes as they make their way up the 395 into Mammoth and then Yosemite. Best experienced on two wheels!

How blessed our SoCal Harley riders to have the rides here. Yosemite is probably one of the tops. Ride Safe 🤙🏼
We got options !
There are many places out there I want to ride
Thank You.. Beautiful thing to watch.. On one of my to do list.. Long ways from the middle of the country..
“Moisture is the essence of wetness.” Cracked me up.
I finally went to Yosemite a few years ago and the whole time I was wishing we were on the bike. Gotta experience that kinda of nature by being in the nature, not looking through glass.
Every few years i make it out to June lake , and Lee vining. Feel right at home , the dialouge and discription in your videos Matt compliment the beauty that are the high sierras
Thanks man. Hopefully I don’t get too cheesy.
The bike which Andrew was riding was the best looking one. That black and chrome... 😍😍
I really enjoy this and realize that America is one of the most beautiful countries by nature, I share the height of this beautiful vlog
My Beautiful Wifey and I watched the whole video together and really enjoyed it. We are inspired to make Yosemite our first BIG RIDE. Thank you very much Matt and your Team
You’ll love it. Thanks for watching. 👍🏼
@@MattLaidlaw *Yeah but even @ 💯 degrees it’s still **#HOT**‼️* 🥵
I was born and raised in Fresno. I've been to the park hundreds of times and it never loses its magic! There's just something about it? I've rode, drove and hiked all over the park! I know you were pressed for time but Glaicer point is a spot you should of taken in.
The hydration vests are life savers in the heat! I've used them for years but they don't work as well here in Florida with the high humidity.
Great video!
Yea, I wish we could have done glacier point. We just didn't have the time to ride in and hike. Next time I'll do it for sure
Glacier Point Road is getting a complete rebuild and widening. Lots of closures, delays, and construction surfaces. Should be reopened by summer of 2022.
I need a trip like that.
Everybody needs a trip like this .
Been to Yosemite a couple of times, love it, definite bucket list experience...loved the video, as a retired cameraman with over 25 years experience, great operating, cutting, and music, exceptional...one of best travel vids I've seen...loved it.
Coming from someone who’s been doing it longer than me, I appreciate the compliment.
Good time & ride for sure...people need to get out and see all the amazing places in this country of ours and experience it with there own eyes . It's amazing
Doesn't get much better than this !!!
Thanks, Matt. My favorite place on Earth, and I haven’t been in 20 years. Seeing your view from the bike absolutely made my day. Love it.
Such a beautiful place. You need to go back 20 years is too long. Thanks for watching.
Matt knows its time, I know its time, and you know its time. I want to see a reply to this post in the next year with a link to your IG with Yosemite photos from your trip. We are on the earth for these reasons.
A dream. Thanks for taking us with. Beautiful landscape. Greetings from a very rainy and stormy Germany this year.
👍
Your choice of music over the course the video is fantastic. A+
Thanks! I wanted something that captured the trip and scenery and something that was universally liked.
Great looking trip from SoCal. I did in in 1995 on a new FLHR from Louisville KY. Little bit longer ride but I was young and adventurous. Now I'm old but I still have the Road King.
Those bikes combined with those trips are the life. I would really like to own one.
Thx for the trip down memory lane of those great Sierras. You guys are awesome.
Thanks for watching !
I love my hydration vest here in Vegas. Get a Harley cooler bag and put it in your saddle bag with water and ice. Every time you stop, put vest back in that cooler bag till you're ready to go
They work. Period.
I need that in Phoenix! How long does it keep you cool before having to wet it again?
@@Cregar1 the Harley ones are thin. I got mine off Amazon and at over 100 degrees and 80moh 90 minutes with no problems. Down side you can't anything in your pants pocket. You'll be soaked from the shoulders to mid thigh but it's worth it in this heat
Absolutely loved this. Been on the upper road with my lowrider many years ago. Brought back many memories of rides across country with my best riding buddy. Haven't done a road trip for several years now because of declining health. Heart surgery this Friday and if I make it through plan on Yosemite next year on my Tri-Glide. Thank you for this great video and long live Harley Davidson trips.
Hi Matt, greetings from Victoria, Australia. Thank you for that incredible video!!!! We're in Australia so we know what heat is but having ridden in Pheonix Sept 2017 we REALLY know what heat is !!!!!!
Matt has real talent putting together his videos. This is his best and the music he chose is top drawer.
Thank you my friend. 🤙🏼
From Lisbon, Portugal. Spectacular this video.
The landscapes that Yosemite National Park shows us in this video are of extraordinary beauty, it's American beauty in all its splendor, without a doubt.
Love the paint on that Dyna..... the rider is quite cute as well !
Matt, you should win am award for that video. One of the best motorcycle travel videos I've ever seen. And thanks for sharing your beautiful state with an old east coaster that will probably never get experience it.
I know California really well and live nearish Yosemite, but I think it was very cool how you showed the route you took to get to Yosemite. Good job.
Nobody ever told me there was such a thing called a hydration vest. Nice bikes and nice scenery.
Beautiful place! I can see why so many folks visit the park. One day I'll ride my Harley through that beautiful park. Thanks for posting.
wife and rode down 395 from wa st. went into Yosemite. cant remember the year, it was the hottest weather ever recorded inside the park. we rode out the west side. next morning told my wife we are not stopping until we get too the Pacific Ocean.
Just a weekend trip but a lifetime of memories!
That’s right! Best to live the weekend in a memorable way instead of a forgettable way.
Harley - Davidson Number 1.🌎🏍🇺🇸🦅
#Freedom.🗽❤
This shit is just epic! I like the way you see things and articulate your vision.
Thanks for sharing, Matt. What a beautiful country…God’s country…for sure.
Really enjoying this Matt….thanks for the scenery and great music.
Thanks for watching !
I'm still saving for my first motorcycle but can't wait to do awesome trips like this. Thank you! Gonna be an iron 883.
Really enjoyed this video. Perfect combination to enjoy nature and Harley Davidson at the same time.
2016 i fly from Sweden to LA! Rented a street Glide for 3 weeks. THE street Glide took me around all of California 3850 km. And a Short stay in Vegas Nevada. But My greatest memory is Yosemite ❤️🤠 next time i have to Bring My wife . Hard to explain Yosemite!
🛑🛑 Matt…probably one of the “best bike adventure” videos that I have ever seen on RUclips💯👍.
It is really great, how you can spend time with your team at Laidlaw’s where everyone gets along; and enjoys each other’s company😀👍.
This video and camaraderie indicates the “family atmosphere” that is present at Laidlaw Harley Davidson👍.
Great Job…😀👍🍺
I really appreciate the comment. Yes, we have a good time riding together. Thank you for taking the time to leave the comment.
The place i work was amazing in that way. everyone got along. People even came in 1.5 hours before their shift just do they had time to hang out before work. We got bought by another company. They did not like that there were 40+year employees. Triple generations worked there, since 1926. The new company's philosophy was to have strife amongst the ranks. No joke. It took them 5 years. Now most people are gone. Nobody likes coming to work and everyone dislikes each other.
@@whatyoumakeofit6635
I worked at a plant where everyone was always comparing “themselves” to “the next guy”.
If you bought a new car or new bike, people became jealous, and “god forbid” if they found out what they cost.
I started driving an old “beater” pick up truck (never took my bike to work) just to “ keep folks from going crazy”😂👍
Thanks for the memories, haven't been there since I was a kid.
Awesome video! Matt Laidlaw saying you meet the nicest people on a Honda while standing next to a goldwing was pretty good to. 👍🏽
Thank you so much for your post. When I was young I spent a lot of time in the park. We lived at the Spingwheel ranch just off of Hwy 120. Be safe and Blessed
What a beautiful ride out
Matt! I'm 58, at my age my bucket list is supposed to be getting smaller, you keep adding to it!
Sorry man. 😁 I can have that effect on people. Sounds like you need to start crossing items off the list.
Wow,,,,what a great video!!! I know you spent a lot of time and effort on it. Absolutely perfect.
My wife and I drove our motor home there a few years ago. Had to go in the west side because east side was still 40 feet of snow! Luckily I called before we tried to go in the east side. Just a wonderful place, I missed not being on my motorcycle , but staying there in your RV and doing the bus tours was a great way to see the park and listen to the history from our guide.
Yea, I’d love to spend more time in there. Going in a motor home would be awesome.
AWESOME MR. MATT THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL!
Just went up the 120 a week ago. I rolled over Sonora Pass l, south on 395. I didn’t go to the park but fished Ellery Lake you passed on way to park. I also ate at the Whoa Nellie Deli inside the Mobil gas station right at the 120/395 junction. Next time y’all roll up ya should try eating at that place. This video was fun to watch! It’s in my back yard basically!
Great video, thanks for taking us along.
I used my cooling vest I got at cycle gear and it works. I went to Reno this weekend and it was 106 plus. It was hot. The vest helps. Recommend to all. Great Video... thanks
Awesome video. What an amazing ride. Thank you.
Thanks for watching.
@Matt Laidlaw, thanks for yet another great video. I recently retired got a bike and pick I NG up where I left off 37 years ago... Life is good. May you all be blessed in your travels my friends 👍😎
Enjoying your trip videos, live in Australia so nice to see the iconic US landscapes. Nice looking at the Harley's too!
Went through the park 20 years ago solo on my road king on the way to street vibrations. Brought back lots of memories. Guess I need to to do it again on my 2020 CVO Road Glide. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Nice. That’s would be a great ride.
Superb Job Matt, Hydration Vests were the Star of the Show! Thanks again.
Haha thanks man. They saved us for sure.
Can’t wait to go there someday!
Vicariously riding from the Philippines, good stuff Matt. Many many thanks!!
What amazing scenery.
I am growing passionately for motorcycles and have stumbled onto this video and glad I watched. Truly top notch production value here. Nice job and thank you for putting it together!
Great trip and video. That RKS in Deadwood Green looks really great on the road, much better than HD site pics for that color.
Matt, you guys visited my backyard Yosemite! I grew up outside of Fresno and I can't tell you the hundreds of times I've visited our National Park! Great trip! Thank you for sharing!
If I lived close I’d be there all the time. 👍🏼
I could have spent a lot more time there.
@@MattLaidlaw Just plan a trip with the family or your pals and do the Sequoia Kings Canyon ride through. Either through Visalia up and around and go visit General Sherman the Nations Christmas Tree and come out 180 west ei down to Fresno. Or from Yosemite down the 41 and east 180 through Kings Canyon out to Visalia!
One of your best video yet! I ordered a cooling vest. I wish that I had it when I went to Nashville-102 degrees🥵
Man that guy is funny had me laughing out loud all the way from Melbourne Australia!
Andrew is buck wild 😜 definitely enjoy his energy! Excellent views and videography! Superb job Matt! 🤘🏾
Thank you brother!!! 👍🏽👍🏽
What an awesome video. Man you should have your own show on TV I swear. Great job and pleasure to watch as always.
Another great video Matt. Made me want to jump on my bike and ride! Andrew to Funny Brother! Always enjoying life!
the perspective of that group shot makes you out to be a giant among dwarves!
Haha. I’m kinda tall.
Thanks Matt! This really brought back good memories! One of my more epic trips was rt66 from my home in Bloomington, IL to the Santa Monica Pier, then north on Pacific Coast Hwy to Oregon, then zigzagging back home trying to hit as many national parks as possible. Spent 2 1/2 days in Yosemite. It was spectacular beyond words!
Great video. I grew up hiking and backpacking in Yosemite, amazing countryside and breathtaking views. It's amazing in the winter as well and not as crowded. Those hydration vests are a lifesaver when it's hot. Used one all last summer on a 4k trip, love how you can just get it wet again and wear it under a mesh jacket and be comfortable.
Let’s go! 💨
Let's go!!
Your videos are amazing! I never watch tv however I watch you on RUclips over and over again! I love my Harley!
Wish I was riding with you guys. Looks and sounds like a great bunch of good people having fun. Thx for sharing your Journey.
Well Matt, I believe that this is the best cinematic video that you've done so far. You've really upped your skills in both stories and videos.
The only flaw is that you didn't give yourselves enough time but with everyone working, I get it. Life is so short so make the most of it with your friends and family.
I still have you on my bucket list to somehow drive to Laidlaw's for a T-shirt and a visit.
God bless....
Did Yosemite and Sequoia this past May on 1500 GWing solo, outta Tucson. Fricking epic- highly recommend.
Your videos are top notch. I have been to Yosemite many times in a car but that changes the June when I ride my blacked out Ultra Limited I got from you. You gave me the send off in the rain. It was a pleasure dealing with the Laidlaw family. Keep up the great videos.
I live within an hours ride to Yosemite and have ridden it many times. It never gets old (except when the park is packed with too many people). I rode sequoias national park last year just before Covid shut everything down and it was nice also but it is nothing compared to Yosemite. Great video Matt.
Thank you so much for uploading and sharing. Beautiful shots, what a great trip!! Finished last week my 5.500 km harley trip from the mediterranean sea to the atlantic, through the french and spanish pyrenees. Also beautiful nature and much culture! Best wishes from germany, ride safe always.
Cool man! Did you ride alone? I would like to plan a trip! Greetings from Belgium
Good job as always! Hydration vests ABSOLUTELY work!! Love mine for years...recharge under any faucet during your ride, even done in a couple clean streams...only 60 bucks!!
Haha yes sir. Life savers.
Here in vegas I have my road king in the garage. Cant do it in this heat but damn I want to.
Great video! Can't wait to see more!
Real nice trip and glad you guys had so much fun……….👍
Planning to take this ride on my 2015 VRod Muscle!!! Thx for the awesome inspirational vid!
Awesome trip and vid. Great reminder to stop by Laidlaws to pick up a hydration vest.
Good to see you put off SEKI (Sequoia/Kings Canyon) for another trip. SEKI usually takes longer than planned.
Thanks Matt for sharing your awesome ride!! That's what makes you the best Rep for Harley and Socal... Thanks for all your efforts in sharing the experience..
This video had a feel-good feeling to it
Loved it, thanks for sharing. I have done a lot of the rides you guys do, it's nice seeing again from the comfort of my home.
Love it. Thanks for watching.
What do you think Sportster S? Huge jump air cooled to liquid cooled. Looks bad ass. No stage 4 needed, just bags and windscreen! Good job Harley
Matt you and the gang make the best video's
Keep them coming
Epic. This is why we do it.
Man, when you were showing the maps while splitting lanes in traffic I was looking at the squiggly lines to the right and was like, "Screw this traffic, I'm heading that way!". LOL!
Haha
I like the purple T-Sport better than any of them. A 2001 T-Sport was the best touring Harley I ever owned. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You really out did yourself on this video !!! Wow ! When you mentioned you guys were going on a trip to yosemite we couldn’t wait for the outcome. Definitely did not disappoint. At times we felt like we were watching a commercial for HD, and park service. Very professional!! Thanks for sharing!! Many memories created
Thank you! I appreciate the positive comment. Don’t tell anyone but I sell harleys so I do promote them in my videos.
thanks Matt.and ever trip needs an Andrew.ride safe guys all best from New Zealand.
Thank you for sharing, Matt. Beautiful ride!
That’s a great trip with wonderful camera shots , plus on a HD , Andrew is a beast
That is what I would like to do for the rest of my life. Ride a Harley-Davidson through these incredible landscapes… Greetings from Spain!
You and me both.
That 36 minutes of sauce was awesome.
absolutely fantastic
I was stationed at Castle AFB when I experienced Yosemite. I went back several times. I would love to go back there and see it again. One thing I remember is going there in the spring when the water falls was most intense. The spray coming off of the falls was cold and refreshing. The climbers going up El Capitan was awesome, just not for me.
Very cool
Thanks Matt, love your destination rides! Also Andrew is a mad-man, laying down in the stream!
I rarely comment on videos....but this was really well done. The scenery shots were outstanding; editing was very well done....great job with the voice-overs; you've got a nice, even keeled temperament for doing these. I've learned a lot about Harleys from your product videos. Some nice rides featuring different Harleys and accessories is a perfect extension for a dealer. Great job. Keep 'em coming.
Thank you for taking the time to comment. I appreciate the feedback. It’s good to hear what people like or don’t like so I can change my direction and style accordingly
Love these types of comments “I rarely comment on videos” 😂
Lake Tahoe cabin trip with the crew next please. Those twisties as you go into Tahoe will get the blood going too.
Fantastic video ! Great footage on park especially riding a Harley. From a fellow Harley rider who has always wonted to visit . The only way to see this amazing area.Even the wife enjoyed watching . Greetings from Australia!
That Denny's in Bishop was the same one I stopped at on my ride from Sacramento to San Diego 4 years ago.
Awesome birthday cake shake.
I’ll be sure to get the shake next time
