Hi Megan, your opening shots were like I was watching an epic western movie and loved the whistle, it was quite spine chilling, and what dreams are made of, then you find this idyllic pitch to set up camp, so beautiful. I think British Columbia is paradise on earth, and so enjoyed coming along with you and seeing your great country.

Love that epic drone shot on the cliff face! Seems we motorcyclists have all been on the pandemic related rediscovery plan of British Columbia. Though I'd love to see Covid in the rearview mirror for everyone's sake, I can say it's helped remind me of how amazing our Province is, and I've been able to do some old routes again, and found some fantastic new ones, and earmarked some for 2021! Great video.

@@MeganKaptein Hi Megan, I'm not so keen on how close you were to that cliff face, I have a fear of heights and I had shivers running up my spine just looking. I'm in New Zealand and I have been, and have owned motorcycles for 53 years (current bike is a 1200 Suzuki Bandit) so love watching others rides on KZbin. I have a friend that lives in Kelowna in the Okanagan but I have never been over there. You would love some of our riding down here. There is nothing I like seeing more than pretty women riding motorcycles, like my wife, and you like her are right up there in the pretty stakes if I do say so myself lol

@Her Motorcycle Adventures ; Gidday cobber(ess) from across 'The Deetch' ( ;-) )This time 7 years ago I was finishing up a 14 day 5000km tour of coastal SE Australia on a rented BMW F650. It was a round trip from Canberra out to Batemans Bay and then following the coast as much as possible (defo incl the Great Ocean Road) as far as Warrnambool, cutting back over the Otway Mtn Ranges, breezing thru Melbourne, then up the Alpine Highway, veering northeast at Omeo over 80km of unsealed road, over the Snowy Mtn range via Cabramurra (Australia's highest town) and finally the back roads into Canberra. My Canberra-based sister warned me about wombats and 'roos and travelling at dawn/dusk. I 'got' 'roos in my head and their behaviours but couldn't visualise a wombat which I thought was quite a 'small' marsupial like a 'possum. I primarily used to think a W.O.M.B.A.T. was an Engineer's 'Dilbertism' acronym to describe C-level and middle-management ideas that were ill-conceived, under-funded, poorly implemented and finally terminated as a "Waste Of Money, Brains And Time". And then I saw one 'for reals', or rather the intact but lifeless corpse of one on the side of the road to 'The Prom' (Wilson's Promontory, the southernmost point of the Australian mainland/continent). I pulled over, nudged it with my boot to see how its mass matched its volume, studied it for a coupla minutes and thought "Hmm, a .7m high, mobile, semi-sentient brick wall. No wonder you Aussies have such strong 'roo/bull bars fitted to the fronts of your Toyota HiLux utes and Land Cruisers. Good one. If I hit one of those wombats at speed, I'd be pitched high and spinning head over heels over the handlebars, airborne for 50m before hitting the road, possibly dying then and there from a snapped neck upon impact." :-O :-O . I then proceeded to break that Golden (Aussie+Nth American) Biker's Travel rule, not once but twice, due to mistaken accomodation planning and distance-time underestimation. The first was riding the Great Ocean Rd at night getting to my pre-booked accommodation at Apollo Bay after just managing to catch the last ferry of the day from Portsea to Queenscliff across 'The Rip' (The entrance to Port Phillip Bay). Luckily, no Koalas in the middle of the road warming themselves on the stored heat of the asphalt! I got a 'dream run' to enjoy the GOR for its curves without the scenery distraction. The next day I proceeded to ride the GOR in both directions for the complete scenic treatment! The second time I rode at night was between Corryong and Adaminaby right through the heart of Kosciuszko Natl Park. I was *really* nervous about this stretch and took things very slowly and cautiously, constantly on the lookout for hints of wildlife on either side of the road. I thought there would've been hotel accommodation at Cabramurra, but it turns out that is not a 'public' town. It's a 'company' town for the Snowy Mountains Hydroelectic Scheme. I was told the nearest hotel was in Adaminaby and mercifully I was lucky there upon arrival. Equally mercifully there were no mutual-fright wildlife encounters on that entire Koscuiszko traverse road. So Megan's not the only one who 'wings it' on the accomodation front when exploring :-)

Flag-waving Kiwi here... I have said elsewhere, that NZ is a compact/'zip-file' version of Canada. You'll totally love it over here. No large forest wildlife (bear, deer caribou etc) to make anyone nervous about crossing paths with, no snakes or lyme disease carrying ticks or virus-laden mosquitos (oh we still have em, and mofo biter midges/sandflies down Fjordland way, but they won't incapacitate or kill you with their bites). LOTR fun fact: 80% of the outdoor scenery is direct 'in-camera' with no compositing/CGI. I have a road-atlas that pinpoints all of the LOTR scenery, plus a complete scenery location guidebook. 'Hobbiton' is located less than 50km/30mi from where I live, with some of the finest motorcycling Waikato back-country paved roads all around to ride to get there. :-D :-D

​@@MeganKaptein It's a deal, Megan. I would consider it the highest joy & honour to help & show a kindred spirited traveler, the hiker+biker's view of NZ that is 20 x more than what's 'touristically showcased' in the general travel brochures & websites. Yes there is a bit of quality touristy overlap, but much more often than not, the hidden gems are free, not withstanding the journeying magic of the roads less travelled to reach them. Try & allow yourself at least 8 weeks here if possible, to get even a half -decent scratch of the surface of Middle Earth. But we'll need to use old-skool methods to establish contact as I don't do the usual soc-med suspects of FB or IG out of well-informed, ethical and privacy concerns over their (mis)use of Big Data mining. Although Google/YT aren't that much better these days. So probably best if I touch base first via a contact message on your own dedicated website, 'eh?' ( ;-) ) Shalom, John

Great Adventure. I motorcycle camped overnight in Lillooet this weekend. Longest ride yet for me. I’m finally aware that if I never got to go anywhere but BC for the rest of my life I’d be ok with that. I don’t think I could ever see the entirety of our Province. It’s so vast and diverse. Unrivalled Beauty here. ( I need a proper windscreen though. I was like puppet on a string on the Highway )
