Arizona RZR Rip

Filmed on Jan.25, 2024, near Florence, AZ. Join Timmer & I as we get the crap scared out of us by the wily old veterans. Hill climbing and rock crawling is the flavor of the day with Bernie, Dave and Frank as they tour us around in the Arizona desert.

Hey Buddy ! Late to the party but loved the video ! So cool you got to go down there and ride, totally different than your neck of the woods. WTF Q in a Polaris?!?! I don't know i I like that haha sure were some nice machines though ! So crazy what they will go through, I think back to my buddies KRX, it was insane the stuff it would go over. It's such a different sensation than wheeling with a ATV. (I also thought we were going to tip over haha) That old stage coach thing was so cool ! There is so much history in that part of the world, with all the settlers and the different native tribes, it's so interesting. That Monument place was such a good idea ! I see some of that in some of our warming shelters. Coke is Sooooo much better than Pepsi haha Those views of the mountain ranges were unbelievable, such a beautiful state. The last section where you are driving between the mountains was so awesome ! I'd love to do that ! Great video my friend, I see I have a few more of your videos I need to catch up on. Cheers ! Go Leafs GO !!!

[@quaddingsous]

Hahahaha! Oh for sure, a SxS is so totally different than being on a quad and those Polaris' were amazing machines! The old Stage Coach Station, the amazing views & the monument hill were definite highlights for me, but my favorite part was going through that box canyon near the end! I've watched so many videos on YT of people in them and I've always wanted to go through one, but never thought I'd actually do it. It was like what people describe as a bucket list thing for me. We also took in the Barrett Jackson Auction while we were down there, which was another bucket list item for me, so it was a REALLY AWESOME trip! - lol Thanx for the comments and for watchin' buddy! GLG!

[@kractass]

No mineshaft review??? Wtf?? Dave's the man with his coke! Every time you shit your pants I was thinking I need a sxs! What awesome scenery man! Holy shit!! And awesome trails! Wow!! I'll have to visit when I get my sxs.😁 I love how Americans never wear helmets🤣. Great video Q! Thanks for posting!!

[@quaddingsous]

A shaft review?!!!🤣🤣🤣You crack me up buddy! Frank was the only American in our crew - lol. I was going to take my helmet for a better camera view, but WestJet wanted $60 for the extra piece of luggage😳, so F@$# that!😂 Thanks for the comments and for watchin' kractass! It wasn't as scary as I was letting on. I had a blast and would definitely do it again.

Just saying older a person gets i think side ×side way to go even here in saskatchewan

I'll have to be VERY old before I switch to a SxS here in Sask. Those things are too big. If I lived down in AZ for the winter, I'd probably buy one though - lol Thanx for the comments and for watchin' Trevor!

[@ManzanoManATVAdventures]

Great looking trail ride Q. I know those thrills in the desert all to well and the camera does not even come close to showing the steepness or how off camber you are. The arroyos you guys rode in and out of are so much fun. The desert has so many cool historical facts. Man, what an awesome wife to make a sweet lunch. Sweet video man.

[@quaddingsous]

Yeah man, that was a sweet ride out in the desert! Totally crushed a couple items on my bucket list with that ride! YEEEEHAW!!! I've never met Frank's wife, but she must be pretty awesome if she's packin' bacon sandwiches for his lunch! Unless, of course, he has high cholesterol and she's trying to kill him - HAHAHAHA!!!!!

Morning Q!

[@kcatv9556]

Heck, yeah! That is some good buddies right there. Taken you and Timmer out for an awesome ride. Man that sure was some rock crawling right off the bat! Probably a bit scary being the passenger in one of those things. The old stage coach remnants was definitely cool! Yeah, all the cactus plants were cool. I have never ridden in Arizona. Some amazing views! The pass with all of the remembrance markers was very cool Nice hill climb after lunch Woohoo!! Awesome tour buddy thanks for taking the time to film and take us along on your trip!

[@quaddingsous]

Well there ya go KC, now you gotta go to Arizona so I can watch some KCATV AZ Adventures - lol. Yeah, being the passenger was more nerve racking than driving, that's for sure, but it wasn't as bad as I put on😉. Mostly just a ton of adrenaline fun. The views and scenery were absolutely spectacular! I'm glad I took my cameras with me, although some of the hills and aaaaangles we were at got lost in the lens of course, so you didn't really get the full effect. Thanx for the comments and for watchin' buddy!

Nice scenery. Glad you had a good time. Could you imagine doing that on Quad. That would be a blast. Razors are pretty cool to just a little bit bigger than I would want.

[@quaddingsous]

Yeah, I'd really like to try it on a quad, but I know for sure there were spots we wouldn't make it through or up on a quad. Having said that, there's always a way around right - lol Thanks for the comments and for watching Tim!

[@stephencostello1483]

I haven’t been on KZbin in a long time but to see your face again, and to read your comments are surely a pleasure. I’m glad you’re doing well at least looking it. And to be in Arizona what a surprise. You reminded me of a child on a Christmas morning. Your gift was a new day , and for you to cherish the day is how it was for me a few years back when I came across your videos. The videos you made brought inspiration to me. And to many others. The beauties of your own country breathtaking. To see and hear the voices of your pals again. Like I never missed a step. You were so close to some of these guys that comment and with their own adventures. With all the crap on KZbin, they’re lucky to have you guys. I was honored to take a peek again. Thank you for keeping it real. Just some guy from Michigan. Tell your friends I said hello thanks…Q

[@quaddingsous]

Welcome back Stephen! Every day is a great day indeed! Thanx you for the kind words and for watching Q-Tube!

[@grousehunter67]

Cool trip you and Timmer retiring down to older people country haha , i do like the longer wheelbase for quads for climbing also i have been debating trading my wife's Grizzly on a 2up really bothers me with her on a lot of the rides

[@quaddingsous]

Hahaha, I'm not sure I could live down there more than a few weeks. Our wives loved it because they were playing pickleball everyday, but I think I'd get bored without my shop and I'd have to buy another computer so I could edit videos - lol. Yeah, the 2-ups are a lot more stable going up the steep hills, but not at good at rock crawling or off-camber ground. Thanx for the comments and for watchin' Steve!

[@mcroadscapes7107]

Glad you made it down to Arizona, the areas you ride are beautiful, Arizona has its own beauty and diversity, you rode in southern Arizona, my wife and I ride in Northern Arizona, not much winter riding since they close the roads, here are some of our video rides in northern Arizona . www.youtube.com/@mcroadscapes7107 Thanks for sharing your videos, hope you get to experience more of Arizona trails. I lived in Florence for a number of years, it can get over 120 degrees in the summer.

[@quaddingsous]

Awesome, I'll check it out! Thanx for the comments and for watchin' M&C!

[@atvcampingadventures1728]

Hi Q , what a amazing place the history just blows my mind on how they would of been able to get them stage coaches through there just blows my mind 🤯 and the memorial place on that hill is so beautiful . The gold miners must of been hard people to be in that sort of country it would be bloody hot in the summer, the canyons and tracks looked amazing I would love to go there for sure , it would be interesting to do it on a atv though 🫣💩 Awesome video as always Q thank for taking us along. Cheers mate 👍

[@quaddingsous]

Yeah man, it's a mind blower for sure as to how tough those people were back then. Thanks for the comments and for watching mate!

[@papagriz60]

Hey Q I've watched all your videos and know you've had some pretty tense moments on the trail. Just have to ask, did this ride have more, crap your pants moments , than any previous rides you done???

[@quaddingsous]

Heyyyyy papagriz! Always good to hear from you! The answer to your question is "no". It was definitely an adrenaline rush going up those hills, but I never felt unsafe, which is not what I can say about some of my quadding experiences 🤣 Thanks for the comments and for watching buddy!

[@ArcticExploring]

Really love that place, can just imagine how it is driving there

[@GunnyE9]

Out in the desert,eh?? No smooth sand rid'in here ... HAHAHA!! .... Also you have to remember, ATV's did all this way before side by sides came along. I prefer an ATV to a side by side any day, but to each his own. And I know side by sides can be fun. What ... No Crapper Review?? ... I know there's a bush or two that would of been honored to have had the Q rate them for "Toilet Service" !!! ... HAHAHA!! Thanks for sharing the ride Q!!

[@quaddingsous]

Hahahaha! Yeah, unfortunately we didn't happen along any crappers. I was hoping there'd be one at the stagecoach station, but no luck. Yup, I still prefer quads to SxS's, but in that country the SxS has a huge advantage. Thanks for the comments and for watching Gunny!

[@Zforce800Trail]

Awesome Video enjoyed the scenery. Well how did you like the sxs? I love mine for sure. Well I’m caught up on your videos. I started watching them from 4 years back. Thank for the videos 😊

[@quaddingsous]

That's awesome Tim! I really appreciate the fact you enjoyed the videos enough to watch 4 years worth. I started uploading in 2012, but we didn't get comms until maybe 9ish years ago, so if you want to watch more, there's still a lot of really good content older than 4 years. Some of my favorite stuff is from back then. I really enjoyed the SxS ride, but I'm a saddle/handlebar guy, so I won't be buying a SxS anytime soon - lol - I can definitely see where they would have an advantage in the Arizona desert, but up here many of the trails we find are just too small. We've found a lot of beautiful little lakes on trails that a SxS would never get in on unless you cut down a lot of trees. And if they did manage to squeeze in, they better have a chainsaw at the end or they'd be backing all the way out - lol - I guess it all depends what kind of riding you want to do. A SxS would be awesome for touring the thousands of miles of logging roads and gravel highways in N.Sask. Thanx for the comments and for watching so many Q-Tube vids buddy!

[@quaddingsous]

Hi Tim. Check out this 2 part day from 7 years ago. It was an epic adventure that I think you'll love it! We had 3 days on this trip and all 3 were excellent, but this, Day2, stands out as the best. Day1 kzbin.info/www/bejne/paeqiYlrdrecg80 Day2 kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZvYoHSrfZx_j6c

[@1kukini]

Excellent ride!! Do you happen to know what mapping software your friend was using with that Garmin handheld? It seems most everyone out west uses tablets over handhelds from what I see and read.

[@quaddingsous]

Sorry Tim, I have no idea which maps he was using. Thanx for the comments and for watchin'!

[@RobMillerATV]

Q that was one hell of an opportunity to get to do that! Frigging beautiful in there. Iv always loved Arizona. Sorry I'm so behind in watching.

[@quaddingsous]

ATVing in desert canyons was on my bucket list, so it was an instant yes for me when I was asked if I was interested! And it definitely lived up to expectations! You'd love it buddy! Thanx for the comments and for watchin' Rob!

[@RobMillerATV]

@quaddingsous well now it's on my bucket list lol. I used to truck long haul. Iv been through Arizona many times. I love those south west states. Arizona, New Mexico, little bit of desert and forest as you move across them. Always wanted to explore where I couldn't drive my peterbilt lol.

[@normsatv]

Nice trip Q awesome Scenery . So how you like riding sxs ? They go places & up hills so much more easy than atv do . I wish that we got the sxs years ago so much more comfy lots room pack stuff ect. My bud has a polaris ranger sat in my kawaski says my seats way nicer & comfy than his . Plus kawaski only brand has 3 yr warrenty 👍 Love see the old stage coach buliding and over all very cool Scenery .

[@quaddingsous]

I enjoyed it a lot, but in N.Sask, I'd stay with the quad for now. Maybe when I'm older😉I'll get a SxS, but for now I prefer the handle bars and saddle. The Stagecoach Station was pretty dang cool! Just imagining how they lived and travelled back then is mind blowing! Thanx for the comments and for watchin' Norm! Always good hearin' from you buddy!

[@bert26a]

That was pretty cool I'd love to do something like that. Was your experience there in Arizona enough to make you want a side by each?

[@quaddingsous]

Not anymore than I've already considered it - lol - If I had the storage space, the money (not just for the SxS, but for a new flat-deck, new toy-hauler, new bigger truck to pull my bigger toy-hauler, etc) and the buddies to ride with, yeah, I'd buy a SxS, but 95% of the trails I'm on are to small for a SxS and none of my buddies have SxS's (with exception to my 2 new Arizona buddies - lol), so it would mostly just sit in storage. If I ever decide to live in Arizona for half the year, I'd buy one to use down there and just leave it there. Thanks for the comments and for watching Bert!

[@rawsonforever]

Always good to see where other people ride. Their winters are like our summers. Hate to fry there in the summer. Look like them trails would be really fun on my old Rokon. Thanks for showing us some different country.

Haha looks like lots of fun, a little too much rock for my liking but it's a nice change of scenery. It's definitely a lot nicer to sit in a seat than on top of a quad, old man style 😃

[@quaddingsous]

We got invited out on this ride while we were on vacation and there was no way I was going to pass it up. It was way cool, but I still prefer a quad for the fun factor. Down there, you can get around a lot better with one of these units. Not too many quads out there. Up here though, the quad rules. I can get in way more places than a SxS. Thanx for the comments and for watchin' ATVORA!

Glad to see you, and Timmer made it down to the States!

[@quaddingsous]

Yeah, I'd love to do more riding in the US, but nobody wants to come with me because the trails are so plentiful (and free) up here. Riding in the desert was on my bucket list though.

@@quaddingsous Utah has a lot of great riding trails. I spend most of my time in northern Utah in the Bear river mountain range, but I plan to spend more time this year in central and southern Utah exploring some new places that I’ve never been.
