My friend and I the trip a few years ago to the Yukon and also did a side trip to Telegraph Creek. When she said you might not make it out, I was nodding my head to that. It rained both in and out on us. Going in we went down one hill was so steep that, with all the mud, we knew we wouldn't make it back up until it dried out a bit more. Thankfully, we made it back up that hill the next day, but that mud is no joke! I definitely look forward to the next video, Eric!

[@Una_Moto]

Cool to hear that story :) Keep an eye out on Thursday!

[@Una_Moto]

Just a short one today! Thursday it gets a bit chaotic again! 😅

[@ezekielmalachi5405]

@@Una_Moto it doesn’t matter still enjoying it very much. Thanks for bringing us along. Ride safe Eric. 👋🏼😊

[@Biker790]

I love the longer content, but even these short videos are awesome. I'm so excited to see more of this journey, which I know won't be long because you're absolutely killing it with the high frequency uploads!

[@johndemmink3539]

Are you lubing the chain and checking oil? Found you yesterday and have binged content. Nice job!

[@hansbuehler]

I can’t imagine the complex mix of emotions you felt seeing those BCPOV and Vangirl stickers. I’m happy you’re on an adventure and taking us with you. Thanks for being real and sharing yourself with us.

[@rich_mc]

Proud of you dude - This is a huge undertaking for any rider, let alone a newbie. Keep it up! Side note - If you get stuck in the rain again and have spare time, you might do a vid about your packing set-up - long trip considering how small those bags are. It'd be interesting to see how you manage all the stuff.

[@synndakitt]

The stickers kinda got me... love your channel, keep it up. We''ll be here for the ride!

[@Una_Moto]

♥️

[@billfrank647]

My new favorite channel. I really like the intro, feels like we are truly heading on a grand adventure. I’m packing up now to head down into Baja from Oregon on my Honda Trail 125. Rubber side down🙏

[@jorgemarquez701]

I am In LOS ANGELES I ALSO WANT TO GO TO BAJA JAVE FUN

[@telcobilly]

That's a trip I want to hear about! Good luck!

[@BillSkatez]

The universe works in mysterious ways. I feel like that rain was sent so that you could be given extra time to appreciate that view. Magnificent! And that lady was so nice, I feel like Canadians got cordial figured out 😁 here in America things are just so distant, people don't seem to like each other very much and I can relate 🤣 thank you for showing us that there is peace, calm, tranquility, and inherent goodness in the world during all of the chaos fed to us constantly. Like I've said before, I appreciate what you do, Eric. It gives me a chance to escape and reminds me that what frustrates me daily is man-made and really shouldn't exist. Happy trails!

[@Una_Moto]

Thanks Bill, very much appreciate the comments :)

[@gabyvansant4533]

Here from Holland, I just found your site and I sure like your way of telling us all about your trip. Because you've got a way of insecurety in your voice, and in your face, that melts my heart. You could be me, or, let's say, my brother. It makes all so kinda familiar. Nice!

[@debrazgalaxy]

My husband and I are really enjoying your adventure. You are doing a good job on your videos.

[@Hristofor222]

Wow, what a great view! Looks good to stay there for a view days. Thanks for documenting your adventure.

[@M0T0bri]

Sweet! Una Moto has quickly become one of my favorite channels! Great job Eric!

[@Travelwheelsaj123]

Hi Eric, I follow you from the south of the Netherlands. Interesting to see that you still take on the difficult challenges with so little driving experience. I will continue to follow you. Have fun and make everyone happy with your travel experiences.

[@dejankolsek3336]

Hi there. My name is Dejan watching you from Slovenia. I srarted to follow you and I think your videos are very good. You have a good camera and microphone. Is all clear. Keep doimg this good videos. Enjoy the ride.

[@shirlprada2447]

Retrieved the drone then the number plate. Yep! don’t go in that tunnel 😂Spectacular glacier shots ❤Love the use of a paper map.

[@robertrose6416]

Just found your channel. Good luck. I wish you the best. Remember only a small percentage of people would ever attempt to do what you’re doing. Stay safe I’ll be watching.😊

[@Una_Moto]

Thanks Robert.

[@arthurcarre1393]

Thanks Eric for sharing this adventure with us. Your videos are really a highlight of my days. You make me jealous in some way, but knowing that I can't do what you are doing, I'm just glad to be able to ride along. Have a great day!

[@ronnystegemann7890]

The view at hostel at the end is great! For your ride around the world i think i must take my motorbike licence! It´s great to see your videos and your adventures. I´m really hungry to drive motorbike soon as possible, but the money 😞

[@ronellefiji]

Ahhh the penny dropped! Never before watched any of the vidz on your bcpov channel, but i started to snoop around ....if you know, you know. 😉you are an excellent storyteller and makes fabulous videos. And you are very humble. Great videos, looking fw to the coming ones....

[@W34Z3L]

lol 8:45 I just realised you were the boyfriend. And you have a channel with half a million subscribers but still doing this as its own thing. Really cool man! All the Best

[@chrismcclintock3530]

Great videos, good luck and have fun!

[@Una_Moto]

Thank you Chris! 🙏

[@dirtpony]

So far I'm loving the riding in BC and Alaska and could watch a years worth of just that content!!

[@rodrigocysneiros6014]

Hello Eric! Man, you need to wash your motorcycle every time you stop at a hotel, clean or change the air filter, clean and lubricate the transmission, check the tires, etc. Maintenance is essential. Ah! I also advise you, since you are going to pass through America, to change the motorcycle suspensions, like Öhlins, WP, Kayaba, or some other good quality brands. There you will find many good options for used dirt bike parts. Change your tires too, you need more aggressive options for offroad. Search online discussion groups for the best options/combinations. Just that! I'm subscribed to your channel and eagerly awaiting your adventures... Hugs and good luck!🙂👍🏻💪🏻

[@rustysheley2632]

Love watching you grow throughout this experience. From day one of getting the bike and license to this thus far. Im hoping to get my son (12) out on some adventures. He rides with me often but weve yet to adv somewhere. One thing i hope to gain from having him engage in the sport is helping him video. He has a growing interest in photography and video. Which is out of my wheel house. I use these vids as a way to learn some basics for video. Thanks for taking us along the journey.

[@jorgebelo7563]

Man, you are a pro! I love your fabulous aerial images and all editing video. Behind that, you have a talent for telling stories. I believe you will make it to New Zealand! Congratulations and all the success for your channel.

[@JonHyeKnudsen]

So even staying at the same place as Itchy Boots in E6S132. Cool. She loved the place too as I recall. 😊

[@Una_Moto]

You are the 3rd person to mention this! I can't believe people know this! She's made nearly 700 videos! Amazing.

[@alpine_pro5814]

I have enjoyed watching your journey on the motor bike. I look foward to every new episode. Keep living the dream brother.

[@petefrost1787]

Just found your channel. Really liked the Salmon glacier drone footage in the previous footage. My wife and I were there in September. It is a beautiful sight.

[@brianrodwell5163]

I’ve ridden a lot in Canada, but you’re finding some great roads. Love your attitude……..👌🏻👍🏻😎

[@jimf8725]

Fantastic work - really enjoying the series. Good luck in your future adventues!

[@jorgemarquez701]

I run into your videos and know I can not stop watching you are doing a Great Job

[@Rollin_free]

Good stuff man, glad you were able to get a room and hind from the impending downpour!

[@Fishbone1975]

Bump up your octane, your bike will run better! Our CRF300L's owner manual says 86 octane or higher but they also spec the bike to have a 10:1.1 compression ratio which 90 octane is widely recommended on the interwebs.. We love your channel and your adventures! Keep it up!!

[@rockinrodlittle]

I agree. I only put the high test in my bike and it runs smooth

[@skualpascal6684]

you're right about octane riser, Eric rides a KLR that got a 11.1:1 volumetric ratio !! It could be very bad to run it w/ low quality fuel.

[@notnumberone1]

​@@skualpascal6684 that's the klx 300 not klr

[@juliusdavies2005]

Loving the story... and we have to remember that you haven't even reached the starting line yet!

[@MotoDude1967]

Beautiful scenery...riding roads like that when there's no other traffic is the best part of riding. You must be having a great time, I hope the weather improves.

[@Go_Alone-s6e]

after itchy boots now you are the one who makes me excited and motivated, amazing motorbike riding videos and beautiful views.. good job..

[@mantapakabu74]

Can't wait till you get to Malaysia.. Drop by to Kuala Lumpur if your are here!

[@lewisrd75]

Love this channel, definitely my new fave, keep it coming and safe travels Eric!

[@uncleal13]

I drove into Telegraph Creek back in 1991. Looks like the road hasn’t changed much. Very fun road. Looking forward to every episode.

[@denesk2794]

Kind of makes me want to get an enduro/touring bike again. I love single trail mud-suffering and I always end up there.... But there is something magical in an open dirt road, up in the mountains and for hours you just coast at a relatively high speed and eat dirt and mud. I miss that

[@sector299]

So far, most of your ride is one I did in 2008. I would love to go back and do that again, but doubt I'll get to. Thanks for taking me along on your adventure. It is bringing back great memories and creating a longing to do it again! You're doing a great job with your videos! Very entertaining!!

[@GhislainLeduc]

amazing trip ! live the dream Eric. Hope it wasn't too hard to see those stickers :)

[@SiFarmer]

👀 Look forward to seeing your ride out 🫣

[@MikeMageeGoog]

Enjoying this series tremendously! All that rain look ominous though

[@rockinrodlittle]

Love all the KZbin videos saying positive things about riding in the rain. I got down poured on hard in Borneo. I think we all know - IT SUCKS!! Keep up the great work, Eric

[@JimCockerham]

You found a great place to stay, hope you don't get stuck there.

Really enjoying these. I'm picking up my Triumph next week and am planning a trip up to Tuktoyaktuk from Minnesota the summer I turn 60. I also really enjoy the music you've chosen. Perfect for this adventure, and conveying the story and solitude. Keep up the great editing!

Don't miss out the south-western section of the Canol Road.

Black bear!!❤ I have yet to see one here in NE Ohio. They wander through from Pennsylvania and are a rare sighting. I’ve seen them in Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Looks like you picked a beautiful place to spend a couple of days. Keep going Eric! 🎉

[@carloyu81]

I followed Itchy boots in 2019 and it is the only channel I have subscribed on KZbin so far. Yours will be my second one to subscribe to. Although you are a beginner for motorcycle ridding, your video editing skills is so great! What you're going to do would be a magnificent feat. Good Luck! ❤from🇨🇳

I love itchy boots she so Good But Eric is doing exellent I will keep watching

[@EdEMitchell]

Really enjoying the vids dude, can't believe how spectacular getting to the "start" has been. And are we 3 days without a drone incident now?!! haha

500 KMs on roads like that beat you up man. I did 1000 kms from Calgary to Whistler in one day and that was all smooth roads (mostly ) the whole way. Cant wait to see more

[@BlackdogADV]

I rode that road to the end 5 years ago on my BMW 1200GS. It was after a fire swept through the place. Lots of views and steep roads.

[@BlacqueJacqueShellacque_]

Stopped at the same gas station in Dease Lake (although I suspect EVERYONE stops there since there are few other options). I'd like to explore more off the beaten path the next time I'm up there. Added Telegraph Creek to the list.

[@Tubed-i5n]

Just finished my 130km hike, grabbed a few stouts with a steak & veg. Watched Zack on Revzilla on a 100 yr old Harley & now watching the man.. Eric ✌️😎 😂...Btw who cares what's going on with the rest of the world ✌️

Tourism BC should sponsor Eric for this portion of his trip what with all the spectacular vistas of our beautiful province he is showing off!

It seems your part of Canada is far more beautiful than mine. Hi from just north of Toronto

[@ashleytombs]

Once again Eric drone delivers more views than a Netflix subscription 😂😂 And Metal bridge or gravel neither both as sketchy as one another that’s without the rain And in the rain you might as well ride on a frozen lake

[@newmachine00]

Amazing new subscriber from Uruguay, Latinamerica. I will follow you in your trip, good video!

[@Crittermoto]

Enjoyed this one cuz I’m one of those that enjoy extra long days on the bike.

[@getlostbrandon]

I dunno, maybe i need to come back and watch this in 4 years. I watched Itchy Boots Season 6, 3, 2, 5. In that order. Haven't touched Season 7 or 8 yet. Every time i think I'm taking a break from Una Moto a new one pops up so here i am! 😆

[@fajnalowiec]

I envy u the view from the window. It s so good that I would stay there a few nights even if the weather would be good ;)

[@ShoestringADV]

500km on a small single cylinder is a long day for sure . If you find you are getting fatigued later in the day you could try taking the peak off your helmet. It really reduces the neck strain .
