  • Potash road and Shaffer trail thru Canyonlands near Island In The Sky is my favorite place to ride and see the canyon. It’s easy to get to and absolutely breathtaking. The views are incredible!

    Wow! Great, great filming! And on top of that you have a very enjoyable, friendly way of commenting too. Thanks for your superb work and for sharing those stunningly beautiful views. Lucky me just found your channel-at random. So come on RUclips, get him more prominent! Whatever. Sure thing I subscribed immediately. I don't like to binge-watch, but with your videos I'm really kind of forced to change habits.
    I travelled your amazing United States of America 1985, 1987, 1990, 2011 and 2014 criss-cross. But always in a car. Becoming a pensioner I got myself a Ténéré 700 one year ago. After 38 years of motorbike intermission I passed some offroad training courses and I already booked some more for 2024. And of course I'm dreaming … to get that Ténéré in a crate … and the crate in a plane …

    Amazing drone footage too. I meant to comment. You want to stay away from the edges of the cliffs, especially on a heavy machine. Only 1" down or so, the infamous Moab "red mud" is often wet. You hit the brakes and the bike/truck can keep sliding. Most locals know this.

    We were just in Moab, Utah in September last year. Went through Canyon lands and saw the roads down below. Wondered how do you get to that? Awesome views everywhere and. Nice and to relive from your perspective. Never thought I could love rocks so much. Weirdly wonderful! God’s awesome handiwork!! Thanks for the videos. Well done.

      @@MotoMission. You are well on your way my friend. Not many people can say they explored Shafer Trail. It is an epic trail. In addition to the two I suggested, you can also camp overnight on the White Rim Trail. You access it on the left, before the switchback area on Shafer Trail. Also, when you go UP Shafer Trail, it is fun to then come DOWN Long Canyon (or vice versa.) I've been to Telluride too- great area. We skied it though and it was amazing. Big mountains.

    I had a bunch of great routes planned for a noob ADV rider like me, including Chicken Corners, but I made the mistake of going too late into the season in 2022 (middle of June), and it was too hot, but the worst was...in the 95-100deg heat, I wasn't feeling well because I'd been battling what I thought was a cold for the last few days (hardly any sleep), and after the ride from the Moab side thru John Brown canyon to Gateway, I was beat. Rode back to my hotel in Monticello UT and went to the hospital (they have no urgicare) and tested positive for The Kung Flu. So, I had to cut my vacation short, sadly (although because of the Kung Flu I was able to easily cancel all my hotel reservations), and rode the 300mi home the next day. DEFINITELY want to get out there again and finally do those routes I had planned! I figure on the plus side, it'll give me a year to get more practice in so I'll at least be a little better at it.
