Brainrotting: Episode 1 - California to Colorado BMW F650 GS adventure motorcycle motorcycles

Re-edited video to please the YouTube copyright police!

I ride and I record. There's no editing of video's when I'm back at home, my video's are all edited on the road because I want to share my experiences as they happen, so...

Follow my journey through North, Central and South America. I've jacked in the job, packed my life into a pair of panniers and a roll bag and tied them down to a BMW F650 Dakar. Now it's time for some fun.

In this episode I start my adventure by getting stuck in the Grand Canyon as I ride through Joshua Tree National Park and onto Colorado

Awesome video friend! If you're ever looking for a beautiful road tour for that 650 try the great lakes!  Specifically the Lake Superior circle tour, I just posted a couple videos about it on my page!

@conleytgn Sorry for the late reply. I might make it up to Chicago later this year but I'm not sure if I'll get to the great lakes though. There are so many great roads to ride in both Canada and the U.S.

songs name please.. the one with the drums at the beginning

[easyg1409]

@yudomax Getting copyright free tracks has been a pain and I've had some problems with youtube. The samba track on this video is from The London School of Samba and it's a samba reggae beat from Salvador in Brasil. There's no track name unfortunately. I've now got my head round the copyright issue so my last video has a cleaner soundtrack. I hope you enjoy the videos

Graham, these videos are absolutely brilliant, I just bought a 650GS Dakar and these clips are an inspiration and a window into the possibilities that lay ahead. quick question, what kind of tires did you use ?

[easyg1409]

@wadeeb I use the best tire's I can get my hands on but there's often a limited selection particularly in South America. Given a choice for road I would use Metzeler Tourance and for dirt I would use Continental TKC80's. I hope that helps and I'm pleased the videos have offered some inspiration for you

[24juan68]

[GorrillaMonkey258]

[YoungAmericanOutback]

Awesome man. Looks like an awesome trip. I am a solo motorcyclist vlogger also. Good work, I loved the video. Ride safe!!

[conleytgn]

@easyg1409 Right you are friend There are a lot of great roads. I'm a Michigander though so I'm sort of partial to the Great Lakes. It's an amazing place, mostly overlooked by the rest of the country. Ride safe friend!

[solimiansky]

[wadeeb]

@MentallyAbsent You should most def do the Dempster, its incredible. I drove in a car a couple of weeks ago. I live in Inuvik

[wadeeb]

That is very helpful thanks, My first trip is going to be the Dempster Highway mostly because I live at the top of it!
