[@brentbat]

No, it's usually not that bad if we have to alter a plan.... I view the plan as a starting point, but then it's more important to adapt when you are out riding. It would have been very dangerous to try to push on and cross the Kowmung River. Well, if you live in Colorado, you live in lovely country too.

Was lucky enough to do a similar loop years ago. One of the guys in our group found a rock in a creek crossing that found its way around the bash plate on the DR650 and punched a hole in the casing. Bit of recovery mission heading back towards Jenolan to get phone signal to get a Ute to come grab him. We continued on to camp at Dingo Dell then Wombeyan caves and round back through Lithgow. Something about trips not going to plan that make them special 👌🏽

What a beauty of adventure! It looks like the landscape here with the eucalyptus trees - only that such a cluster of trees is called here a forest :) The popular navigation app among local hikers and "off-roaders" has a feature that thickens popular trails in the red line on the map. The thicker the line, the more people pass through it. I purchased it just to avoid gates and closed passes (and to avoid too crowded routes). Great video, Brent! Glad I saved it for later viewing. -And keep looking ahead instead of up :)

[@brentbat]

Thanks... yes, the advice to look forward and not down or up is duly noted. How's your 701 going? Must be a more comfortable time of the year for you to ride. I saw another Israeli on a 701 recently on one of the facebook forums. Have you guys met?

[@orpaztron]

@@brentbat yes, the 701 and 690 owner groups on WhatsApp and Facebook meet for trips. Most are no longer young but still looking for the extreme (120 Kph~ on straight off-road trails and steep singles) so there are regularly 2-3 with a broken leg :). I ride with friends with big adventures so it's more... calmer and nature traveled oriented. we had two rainy weeks and the conditions are much better.

I did however have to carry my bike through the cox river because you can't take your bike on the bridge. I'll be going back on my 300 rally to smash it through there soon.

[@kiwiadventurer]

Awesome Brent. Your videos remind me how much I left behind when I returned to NZed. As a film maker myself I get double the joy. Not only an exciting well executed yarn but to watch another mans take on the subject. 'Oh man', that deep creek I was hoping like hell there would be no disaster. They certainly raise the tension at times. More progress with the Skydio. Was quoted $5,555 for the Cinama Kit today. That includes Skydio Autonomy Enterprise which I assume is a subscription to operate it. Hopefully I can get clarity on that point. The same kit in usa is nzd$2980. Some thing sucks. Sat morning in ten minutes. I'll hit the hay thinking about tomorrows ride. Cheers

[@brentbat]

Hey Kiwi Adventurer, I think you are looking at the wrong kit. I've just upgraded my Skydio 2 to the Skydio2+ and I bought the Sports Kit (USD 1549). I already had ND filters, but the Sports kit is exactly what I use. I bought the Cinema kit originally, but I don't use the remote controller, and I did use the Pelican case when I had my GS (I made a nice quick release mount for it). But now I'm riding the lighter Husky 701, I think the Pelican case is too big, so I just mount the smaller case on the rear rack or put it in my backpack and it works a treat.

[@kiwiadventurer]

@@brentbat Unless I can get a contact in the states they won't export to NZ and Sphere Drones will but only sell the Cinama kit. It is what it is and work in progress. Where there's a will there's a way. Watch this space Brent, meantime keep doing what you do. Cheers

[@brentbat]

@@kiwiadventurer But it sounds like they are selling more than the Cinema Kit... Skydio Autonomy Enterprise is on the commercial side, not the consumer side, and if they are trying to sell you Skydio Care, that will only work in the US.... I'd try to negotiate with them if possible, or at least make sure it is the consumer version of the drone and not the enterprise. Anyway... I know your options are limited... so good luck.

It took me lowering the 890 to get it where I feel comfortable on most all terrains because I'm 5'7". I just have to watch how much gear I pack. What photo/video gear did you take on this trip? Did you pack a mirrorless or just the Gopro, 360 and the s Skydio? I really like the way you set a go-pro up on the two bikes so you had follow and look back footage. When you were filming each other doing the water crossings, were you just using the GoPro's or a Mirrorless? And yes, as other have commented the colour grading was spectacular on this one. Cheers.

@@jamesprecious1035 Hey James, I didn't take the mirrorless camera, Right now I'm travelling with My GoPro 10 (on my. helmet), My GoPro 9 which I use as my second action cam) , My Skydio2 drone and now my iPhone 13Pro (in Cinematic mode). That way I'm staying super light and I'm happy with that mix of cameras. Yes, the rear facing GoPro was Jon's camera and I liked that perspective too. Really mixed things up in terms of angles.

I just love the opportunity to shoot stills having grown up with a camera always at my side.

[@2wheelsinmotion]

Also Brent, i'm curious, I also run a GoPro 10 (looks loke you do too), What type of helmet mount have you used. Ive had a Chin Mount and a Dango mount... just looking to see what works for others. David

[@brentbat]

Hey David I use the Proshot chin mount. www.proshotcam.com/ I personally think the chin mount is the best mount for a number of reasons. 1) I like the perspective (not too high, not too low) 2) I like having clean shots (no helmet poking out from the side) 3) I can see the blinking red light, so I KNOW when it is recording 4) I can actually see the top of my screen, so I can check my framing 5) It is easy to operate, I can button on and off very fast with the button in front of my face. I have added a small gopro extension bar to raise the camera up a bit... This means the camera does block a little bit of my lower vision (motorcycle dashboard etc.) but not my vision of the road/track. I'm happy with this tradeoff because being able to check composition means my shots are framed better (I can tell this just from viewing the top 1/3 of the screen).

[@2wheelsinmotion]

@@brentbat thanks for the information, the new Dango mount I tried yesterday hasn’t worked out as I don’t feel its secure enough and it conflicts with my neck brace so I’ll give number three mount a go with the Proshot….. thanks.

I've only ever had it fall off once, and that is when I went over a big jump and didn't see an uphill landing... so I landed REALLY hard and bottomed my shocks out.

I'm waiting for Seat Concepts to come up with the XL comfort model for the MY21, then I'm buying it. But other than that, the bike feels great from a riding position perspective, the windscreen does a great job keeping the wind off my body, I have cruise control and heated grips... good GPS with music... and the lighting system on the Lynx is great.

What are you talking about? The 701 is a GREAT bike offroad.

[@johnstaring3210]

So the maps of all the roads you used, were they standard on the GPS, or did you have to download them yourself ?

[@brentbat]

Hi John, My GPS has a full set of topographic maps, but I use GaiaGPS to do my planning on the computer and I export my tracks to the GPS. By following tracks instead of routes, the base map detail doesn't have to be all that great because you are literally just following the line that is drawn on the GPS unit.

Curiosity would kill me if I didn’t attempt the river crossing 😂

[@brentbat]

Ha! I don't mind the risks, but I can guarantee you, that once you actually tried walking that crossing you would turn around. Perhaps if there was no alternate way, and I had some long ropes, I might attempt walking the bike across, but I think that even then it was too deep. It would have flowed over the seat. But if you want to give it a go, please give me a call so I can meet you there with the GoPro running :-)

Please give some music credits. Really enjoyed the first song you had over the first 3 minutes.

[@brentbat]

Hey Evilforhire, the music was by Tomas Skyldeberg, and the track was called Almost too easy on Epidemic Sound www.epidemicsound.com/track/LPzDeR79FH/

Is the throttle on the left in Australia?

[@brentbat]

Wouldn't that be a trip... throttle on left... gears on the right :-)

[@MattKritzstein]

Cruise control? Can you expand my knowledge and let me know what system that is?
