DRZ400E IN THE GLASSHOUSE MOUNTAINS | ENDURO ADVENTURE

[@dan_the_man88]

Great vid man, your vids are awesome. The hill you dubbed Josh JB Hill leads to the top of Ball Bearing. Josh JB Hill is the chicken track 😬 The gully you called Little Red is called Canyon You were leaking fuel at the start of the valley of death track, people normally go in the opposite direction. I'll take you around Glasshouse if you like, we can go to little red for real :)

[@Taj24428]

Looks like good fun josh, keep up the good work mate 🤙

[@_JoshJB_]

Thanks mate

[@Novanorden]

Another great vid. Good to see a SEQ fella giving it a crack. Endless great trails in glasshouse. Making me homesick. I’m a sunnie coast local living overseas these days.

[@_JoshJB_]

Thanks mate It’s a great spot for a ride, all new to me though. Hopefully you get back at some stage 🤙🏼

[@budget-adventure]

Man that’s some wild country in a 4bie let alone a bike, but you hit those tracks with big brass balls. Great work and look forward to more vids from the area

[@Mudjimba23AT]

Good show mate 👍

[@_JoshJB_]

Thanks 🙏

[@jefftaswelder9154]

Some crazy tracks mate 😬👍 yeah i hear you on the down hills , rather go up than down 🤔 down seems to hurt more when you come off (you superman for a longer time before hitting the ground ) 🤣😥 keep well and ride safe-ish mate 😉🍺

[@AusMoto]

Good stuff mate, DRZ handled that so well 🤙

[@_JoshJB_]

Thanks mate She did the job A lighter enduro bike would be handy though! 🤣

[@AdvHQ]

Nice ride mate. Glassy is so much fun - only ride there 2-3 times a year as it's a fair hike to get there but love it every time 🤙✊️

[@TwoWheelerSparky]

You've got the right bike for it 👌

[@DIRTFARE]

Nice one! The DRZ loves the enduro stuff 🤘

[@nathan7880drz]

Hey dude awesome content ive recently purchased a drz 400e and there a absolute fun machine you got a cool channel man keep up the good work im slowly getting through your vids always thumbs up 👍 🤙

[@_JoshJB_]

Thanks for watching 🤙🏼

[@jakewilliamson]

ghm is such an excellent playground 😉 nice ride josh 🤘

[@_JoshJB_]

Thanks 🙏

[@maggot4x4]

Not little red mate, was the Canyon track. And the first place you asked about was the top of Ball Bearing hill.

[@_JoshJB_]

Ahh right! I wasn’t even close 😂 Thanks for the info 🤙🏼

[@kristofergobbe4838]

Yeah going down a bit scetchier than going up. Don't realise until your up though. And you've gotta come back down. I'm very new to off road riding. Have a klr and thinking of downsizing due to putting myself in situations that the klr is very cumbersome in. and this does stop me from continuing on some tracks as i ride solo and really don't fancy the idea of trying to man handle the klr out if a situation that i can't just ride it out of.

[@Tassiedave]

Geez Josh, they do make trials bikes you know for those rock ledges. Hey I just noticed your seat. Is it a brand one or locally modified?

[@simonjones2645]

xt250 country 😃😃

[@ianhead4740]

Hey Josh, have you changed the rear wheel or is that just a wider tire on the standard rim? Cheers

[@_JoshJB_]

Hey I run 130s on the rear. Same rim though 👍🏼

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Mate I have a sore neck, I kept lifting my head to try and see up ahead. Bummer about the camera angle. Great to see another tractor committing to the hard stuff. All you need to do now is move back to Sydney. Plenty of riding to be had and not solo. Just saying. 👍

[@rossh985]

Yeah Sydney and Melbourne has the most riding places. I moved up to qld few years ago and the bush is mainly private property or national parks with closed gates. Therefore I'm moving back down to Vic where the real adventures at at! Oh also its way too hot to ride in qld most of the year 🔥

[@_JoshJB_]

😂 man I found myself doing the same while editing. Didn’t want to waste a good ride though. I completely agree mate, except for the Sydney part 😂

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

@@_JoshJB_ 😂 good old Sydney. Nothing like a little traffic.

[@rossweeding]

I'd be worried i couldn't find my way back to the car!

[@rampaage97]

Great video mate! what app do you use to find trails and loops? Cheers

[@agro1942]

Hey Josh, do you wear body armour under your MX gear? If so, what type? I'm new to offroad riding, currently just have ADV textiles.

[@_JoshJB_]

Hey mate I’ve got a alpine stars bionic action V2. I’ve used it for my Fraser Island trip and the cape York adventure. It’s great for the warmer weather. Yet to use it in colder climates but I think with enough layers it might still go well 👍🏼

[@agro1942]

Thanks mate! @@_JoshJB_

[@dan_the_man88]

straight!

[@SomewhereInside]

A bit of foot dabbing there on the downhill😮…and we short riders hear the big fellas lecture about just become a better rider , don’t worry about seat height ..😊

[@6226superhurricane]

if you adjust your idle mixture screw a 1/4 turn out it'll help prevent that stalling. but you got it absolutely right when you said it needs commitment, commit to riding feet on the pegs, clutch out revs up. you've already lost if you're paddling up with your feet on the ground and riding the clutch, plus it's too much hard work.

[@deancooper5513]

100% way too low on revs and not covering clutch enough to manage flame outs, probably want to drop tyre pressures to about 12psi, run maybe 11psi in the rear for better traction if you're running HD tubes. As he was riding alone he probably had some self preservation going on, but if you get stuck out there the difference can all be in the level of commitment at the start, as some hills out there take names all day long.

[@levro7367]

Don't know what bike to buy I'm about 30 minutes from glasshouse would you recommend a drz400

[@_JoshJB_]

@@levro7367 it’s a great all round bike to ride to the trails and back again. But just depends what riding you want to do. If you want to trailer a bike in I’d look at something else. But the DRZ can do everything pretty well.

[@katojimmybling]

Yes know the place beginner’s car park mate if you ever want to know your way around this area just get in contact with me i grew up here

[@_JoshJB_]

Thanks mate! I think I need a proper enduro bike now 🤣

[@cliff1551]

Yes beginners point paddy said to Murphy do ya see the sign ,tree fellars wanted ,Murphy said PITTY there's only two of us .

[@Mudjimba23AT]

Hi mate I'm keen to go for a ride down here where's a safe place to park the car and trailer?

[@katojimmybling]

As said beginner’s car park it is on google maps

[@katojimmybling]

@@_JoshJB_ thats why i own a 450 and a 701🤣🤣🤣

[@JackBroad-m5e]

What camera do you use?

[@scobrom]

Thats a nice DR "ZED" 😅

[@cliff1551]

Beginners point isn't that were them two camp Irish fellows got murdered ,ye Patrick Fitzgerald and Gerald Fitzpatrick .

[@_JoshJB_]

I have no idea 🤷🏼‍♂️ Maybe I won’t go there again? 😂

[@wa7215]

….”either way, I know I can ..always, get myself out of trouble with this bike”. 🙄 I admire your ‘confidence’ Josh, but, has the thought ..ever, crossed your mind about ..what, you would do, when riding these sorts of steep and very rough ‘tracks’ ..ALONE, ..IF, you came unstuck/came off, and ..snapped, an ankle, OR, ..broke a leg, in an area with Australia’s ..typical, ..piss-poor, mobile phone coverage/reception…?? 🙄🙄

[@_JoshJB_]

I try not to think of it too much 🤣 I have a Garmin in reach mini. Phone reception for this ride was actually good though!

[@cliff1551]

Paddy said to murphy you seen the news ,three cliff walkers fell to there deaths ,muerphy says thats amazing them all having the same name
